good marriage

Chapter 31

Qi Zhen came out of the bathroom, Xu Kexuan was waiting for him outside, he said indifferently: "Why did you run out?"

Xu Kexuan didn't care about this, she just chased him and asked, "Is what you told Lu Er just now true?"

Qi Zhen frowned.

He actually didn't like this fiancée very much.Naivety and coquettishness are easy to talk about, but the key is that she and Zuo Qiao got too close, which made Qi Zhen somewhat unspeakable.After all, Xu Kexuan also wanted to please his mother, so it was hard for Qi Zhen to tell his fiancée explicitly to keep her away from his mother.

No matter how prominent the Qi family is, he and Zuo Qiao are still orphans and widows, and they should be dependent on each other.But in fact, the relationship between the two is not very close.

When Qi Zhen's father passed away, even though Qi Zhen was young, he was somewhat sensible.There are only two children in the Qi family, Qi Zhen is four years older than Qi Yu, but there is no generation gap between them at all, Qi Zhen loves his only younger brother very much, and Qi Yu is also willing to follow behind him every day spin around.

He always remembered that on the day of the accident, he was still checking Qi Yu's homework.Qi Yu has always been smart, but he is a bit playful, Qi Zhen promised him that he would play games with him if all his homework was correct, so he was willing to sit down and do his homework well.In fact, Qi Yu made a small mistake, but seeing Qi Yu looking at him anxiously, he smiled and put down his homework, pretending that he had passed the test.Qi Yu immediately laughed and wanted to throw himself on him.

They often played this game, and Qi Zhen was ready to catch him, but Qi Yu was pushed away, and one of them lost his footing and fell to the ground.

Zuo Qiao hurriedly went to pull Qizhen: "Quick, follow me!"

Qi Zhen wanted to help Qi Yu up first, Zuo Qiao immediately slapped him: "You are not obedient at this time, your father has an accident, do you know?"

Qi Zhen was rarely beaten, so he was stunned all of a sudden, but Qi Yu had already stood up by himself, chasing after Qi Zhen's hand: "Brother, don't be afraid! I'll go with you...I, I'm at home Wait for you--"

He was almost lifted into the car by Zuo Qiao, and Qi Yu was standing in the yard looking at him, a small one, but full of worry like an adult.

"Mom, what's wrong with Dad?" Qi Zhen quickly calmed down, but Zuo Qiao only cared about crying, and when he heard Qi Zhen ask her, he hugged Qi Zhen, panicked.

Old Master Qi was guarding the hospital himself. When he saw Zuo Qiao bring Qi Zhen over, he immediately reprimanded her, "He's a child, why did you bring him here!"

Qi Zhen had never seen his grandfather's appearance before, so he couldn't tell what kind of feeling it was, but he was scared by instinct and hid behind Zuo Qiao.He was very afraid of his grandfather. In the whole Qi family, no one dared to pat his chest and say that he was not afraid of old man Qi.But Zuo Qiao lost his sense of propriety, for a moment he couldn't care less about being afraid or not, sobbing and retorting: "What if... just if... I can't have the last..."

"Shut up!" Old Master Qi snapped.

Zuo Qiao stopped talking and cried with all his heart.

However, it was not possible to save him in the end.

Qi Zhen didn't know at the time that the three of them got into a car accident together, Qi Yu's parents died on the spot, and when his grandfather was sitting at the door of the operating room, he had already lost a son.When he heard the news that the rescue failed, the always strong Qi family helmsman slowly closed his eyes. He sat there motionless, but it seemed that in a short moment, even his figure became rickety.

The doctor said that the patient kept mentioning Nan Nan repeatedly before he died.

That was Qi Yu's mother's nickname.

Zuo Qiao's almost collapsed spirit was stimulated in an instant, and she burst into tears, and she couldn't help shouting: "What is he thinking about An De, what is An De thinking about! Putting his own life in it— ——Still thinking of others, and still thinking of others after death... woo woo... What a crime I have done!"

"Okay..." Old Master Qi had no choice but to stop her, but his voice was hoarse, weak, and his momentum was greatly reduced.

"Father—look at what kind of daughter-in-law you have found. It's so scary! The two sons of the Qi family are going around and buried with her... She wants the Qi family to die—"

Old Master Qi slapped Zuo Qiao hard, pulled the rest of the words back into her stomach, and angrily said: "Crazy talk, what a shame! Your child is still here, do you still remember you?" It's a mother!"

Qi Zhen was completely taken aback by such a chaotic scene.He knew that his father was dead, but what kind of concept was this? He was too young to comprehend life and death so thoroughly in just a short moment. What scared him even more was Zuo Qiao's collapse and screaming, and his grandfather... ...When he walked towards Qi Zhen, Qi Zhen even took half a step back uncontrollably.

"Don't be afraid, child, don't be afraid." Old Master Qi knelt down and touched Qi Zhen's head, which was an intimate gesture never before seen by the grandparents.But Qi Zhen was afraid. When his grandfather stared at him like that, he could only bite the bullet and answer: "I'm not afraid, grandpa." Meaning, I feel extremely wronged.

However, Mr. Qi praised him: "Good boy... From now on, you will take care of the family and protect your mother, you understand?"

Hearing this, Zuo Qiao nervously pulled Qi Zhen into his arms, strangled him tightly, and called Qi Zhen's name over and over again, as if crying out for his only hope.Old Master Qi paused, he didn't force it, and he didn't try to get closer to Qi Zhen.He stood up slowly, looked at Zuo Qiao and said, "You raise the child well, the Qi family will not treat you badly."

"There are some things that are non-existent and shouldn't be said, so don't mention them again."

Qi Zhen couldn't see his grandfather's expression, he could only feel his mother tightening his grip on him in an instant, crying until his heart broke.He was very frightened and at a loss. He always suspected that he would be strangled to death in his mother's arms in the next moment. He couldn't help reaching out to push her away, and was infected by such crying. After hesitating, he turned into a half-push and half-hug look, and wept along with him.

Since then, everything has turned upside down.

For a long time, Zuo Qiao, who was under pressure from her natal family and could not get the care of her husband, had a very depressed life in Qi's family. In contrast, her sister-in-law who was in harmony with her husband made her a miserable failure .Once encountering difficulties, Zuo Qiao turned around and became high-spirited, and Qi Yu, who was extremely like her mother, became her biggest thorn in the side.

At that time, the two elders of the Qi family were in great grief and didn't want to take care of too many chores, so Zuo Qiao took over the internal affairs of the Qi family as a matter of course.As long as the two old people keep silent, the Qi family will be Zuo Qiao's voice, one can imagine how difficult Qi Yu's situation is.If the old lady of the Qi family hadn't seen that Zuo Qiao had done too much and brought Qi Yu to her side to raise her, Qi Yu would have been even worse.

At the same time, Zuo Qiao instilled all the hatred and resentment into Qi Zhen. At such a young age, Qi Zhen could only listen to his mother's words and alienated Qi Yu. Push him away.Every time at this time, Zuo Qiao would praise Qi Zhen very gently, saying that he has done a good job, and with him around, mother no longer has to worry about being bullied.If Qi Zhen had been a little softer towards Qi Yu, Zuo Qiao would have returned to the corridor of the hospital that day, crying to Qi Zhen, asking him if he was going to be like his father, who was seduced by the vixen. , but also took her life away, leaving her alone in this world.

If such a method is seen by the current Qi Zhen, I'm afraid he will sneer, but at that time, Qi Zhen was indeed full of resentment towards Qi Yu under Zuo Qiao's intensive education, and even took the initiative to bully Qi Yu. In exchange for a moment of tenderness and peace of mother.

When Qi Yu was in the third year of junior high school, a boy from the other family who followed Qi Zhen all day long was reprimanded by the teacher. Qi Yu happened to be in the office that day, so the teacher took Qi Yu to educate him by the way. Compared.The man was humiliated and knew that Qi Zhen didn't like this younger brother, so he gathered a group of people in the middle and high school in the name of Qi Zhen, and went to block Qi Yu during the lunch break, trying to beat him up to vent his anger.

In the past, when Qi Yu was bullied, it was all in small troubles, and that time was considered the largest and most dangerous one.If it wasn't for being discovered halfway, and running out while holding up the phone, shouting that he had told the teacher, it is possible that Qi Yu would be beaten and disabled on the spot.

That time old master Qi got angry, called Qi Zhen into his study and asked him: "I heard you want to kill your brother?"

This wording was too serious, Qi Zhen was so frightened that he was in a cold sweat, he said he didn't dare, and knelt on the ground to explain to his grandfather.However, Mr. Qi didn't listen at all, and said slowly: "I know you dare not, but you have a good mother. She gets angry, and you are so filial, one day—you dare to do anything."

Qi Zhen still wanted to defend himself, but Old Master Qi went on to say, "Even if you just moved your mind and didn't want to do anything, and your mind falls into the eyes of others, they will dare to do things for you that you dare not."

Qi Zhen had nothing to say, knowing that his grandfather already knew the whole story.

"I educate you like this, hoping that you will be the head of the Qi family in the future. But you don't seem to really understand what the word Qi family means." Old Master Qi patted Qi Zhen on the shoulder, "It will It attracts a lot of desires, even those closest to you. If you can't control all this, you can't be the head of the Qi family."

"If you have time, go and see your brother, or think about it yourself."

When the old man said the last sentence, he seemed to have expected that Qi Zhen would not visit Qi Yu.Qi Zhen didn't plan to go, but Zuo Qiao was very worried, so he came here to comfort him: "Don't be afraid, how long your grandfather can live, and you will be the head of the Qi family in the future. Let him say a few words now, bear with it." , I always have to do something to save face. The old man didn't like him very much, and when he died, he couldn't control it anymore. "

Qi Zhen looked at his mother, feeling extremely horrified, because she seemed to really think that she would do something to Qi Yu.In his mother's mind, what would he do to Qi Yu, drive him out of the Qi family?Or... just abolish him?

Day after day, year after year, he seemed to be led by his biological mother's accusations full of hatred and resentment, step by step into an unfathomable quagmire, until today he suddenly realized that he had been a stupid and obedient puppet for many years, The best revenge sword.

It chilled him to the bone.

Qi Zhen began to accept his grandfather's teachings with all his heart, and once he realized it, he realized how severely his previous vision and pattern were limited.He gradually felt the pity of his mother again. He was no longer afraid of her and avoided her like a snake, but he still didn't want to have too much contact with her.

If Xu Kexuan is smart, she should be able to see some clues, but she is really not smart, just look at her following Zuo Qiao's emotions and being completely influenced by Zuo Qiao's ideas.Now that her son is grown up, she no longer listens to her confides, so she tells her daughter-in-law the old grievances, hoping to indirectly influence Qi Zhen through her.

Sure enough, Xu Kexuan lived up to Zuo Qiao's expectations, and even thought that Qi Zhen also had the same hatred as her. Seeing that Qi Zhen didn't answer, she said to herself: "Obviously I like Lu Da, and when Lu Da died, I was like glue to Lu Er." Auntie is right, Qi Yu is just like his mother..."

This kind of tone that was exactly the same as Zuo Qiao made Qi Zhen frowned even deeper in an instant, and he said, "Okay, let's see the occasion."

Xu Kexuan stuck out her tongue, took Qi Zhen's hand and said, "There's no one... okay, okay, let's talk when we get back. But is what you just said true?"

"I don't need to lie about this." Qi Zhen said perfunctorily.

Xu Kexuan, however, seemed to have learned a big secret, thinking in her heart that it was indeed the case, and when she saw Qi Yu, she became even more contemptuous.
