C183 Sprinkle Salt on the Chest (2/2)
Right now, what she wanted the most was not to defeat Xu Jiaren, but to kill him. She had to settle all the new and old grudges in one go. Right now, disappointing Leng Aotian was merely the start of a good show.
A blackened woman was, of course, terrifying. More accurately speaking, a woman born out of love and hate would only go further and further on the path of revenge.
Xu Jiaren started to feel uneasy. She did not know why but she felt her entire body was uncomfortable.
Leng Yuan went to the courtyard to find Xu Yanmei. Xu Yanmei's expression was gloomy, there was a game of chess in front of him, and Leng Aotian often went down there.
Seeing his own mother's haggard look, Leng Yuan's emotions became complicated. Originally, he was so angry that he wanted to criticize them, but now, it was difficult for him to do so. People, the most important person in their lives, besides the father is a mother, is also a lover and a child.
His father and mother were not on good terms, and so was his beloved sister-in-law and mother. These three important people, two on one, stood at both ends. How was he supposed to stand up?
”Mother, can the two of us sit down and have a good talk?”
”There's nothing to say. I'm tired of your mother.”
”Mother, can you not …” Before Leng Lie could finish his words, Xu Yanmei roared out uncontrollably, ”Quiet.”
”Are you really my son?” It was just such a disappointing son that made him so tired. If he had been with her earlier, the situation wouldn't have been like this.
Xu Yanmei teared up: ”If you are my son, then we are of the same heart. Don't help outsiders bully me, your mother. It's not easy for me to give birth to you and raise you for so many years. You're going to be a father now, and I hope you understand this love. ”
She felt wronged in her heart. When her husband said those words, he wouldn't lie if he said he didn't feel sad. She was tired after all these years of fighting with someone who had been dead for so many years. He couldn't let it go, so he could only hold it in his heart. How she longed to be protected, how she longed for a man to have her in his eyes, how she longed for a love that others wanted but could not have.
After sitting in the position of Mrs. Leng for so long, he had actually forgotten the excitement he felt when he first sat in this position. The more he wanted to obtain, the more unsatisfied he felt, and the more anxious he became. Gradually, he forgot his original intention of sitting in that position.
At that time, he was only purely dreaming of becoming Leng Aotian's woman. Even if he didn't love her, that would be fine too. As long as he could always be by his side … .But then, gradually … … He hoped to attract her attention, but after the birth of the child, he had completely changed.
Especially when she saw how Leng Aotian hugged Leng Lie and laughed so much, especially when she saw that Leng Aotian was just looking at his son calmly.
Jealousy can deform people, have children, for the child's heart for life, also will deform people.
Thinking about what happened back then, Xu Yanmei unconsciously cried. Leng Yuan saw all of this and kept it in his heart. For a moment, he actually forgot the reason why he came here. His heart felt like it was about to collapse. For a moment, he felt that his mother was truly pitiful.
With a sigh, Leng Yuan sat down. However, he was unable to calm down for a long time.
”Son, do you finally understand your mother's position in this family?”
”Mother, your father has always been with you and treated you as a guest, isn't that also good? Auntie has already gone, why are you still jealous? ” He could not understand a woman's jealousy, and even more so, could not understand that this was a wound in Xu Yanmei's heart.
”In the future, when you have a woman you love deeply, you will understand.”
”I don't understand. Love is not so twisted.”
Xu Yanmei sighed: ”Son, don't talk too early now, in the future, you will slowly understand.”
Leng Yuan was still doubtful in his heart. He decided to not go to work today and instead accompany his mother for a bit. ”Mother, let's play chess.”
Xu Yanmei nodded his head, ”After you enter the company to work, you don't have much time to accompany your mother. Mother, I actually really hope that you can find time to accompany your mother for a while.”
”Mother, I understand. In the future, don't worry, I'll be with you. ”
Xu Yanmei did not reply and turned to play, ”Come on, us two, let's have a play too.”
The servants were keenly aware that this home was becoming more and more different. In such a short period of time, so many things had happened. It was truly inconceivable. Madam's rights were slowly being taken back by the Young Madam.
Everyone was well aware of this point. Looking at the matter before her, she felt more and more that her position in the Leng Family was becoming more and more marginalized.
Right now, the servants were extremely respectful to Xu Jiaren. Aunt Liu was happy to see such a scene. If a bully came down, then the person who came down should be a kind-hearted person. Being able to handle matters well and have a merciful heart was not easy.
When Xu Jiaren went downstairs, the five handprints on his face had mostly disappeared. From afar, she couldn't see anything. However, after looking at it closely, he realized that there were traces on it.
”Aunt Liu, where did you put the flour? I want to give Leng Lie something to eat. ”
”Young Madam, let me do it or let the chef do it. You are not idle every day. ”
Xu Jiaren laughed: ”It's fine, I can handle it. Aunt Liu, you should quickly go to the flour, Leng Lie is in a hurry to eat it. I made it for him myself, so it can be considered as a kind heart. ”
