Chapter 128 Doesn’t your conscience hurt?
After arriving at the apartment.
Fang Qiu rang the doorbell for a long time before Cheng Xi came to open the door with messy long hair.
"Mom, why are you here?"
"I asked Cheng Yue for your address, and your uncle Cheng asked me to come and see you." Fang Qiu said while observing his daughter's face. Seeing that her cheeks were pale, he asked worriedly, "Why do you look so ugly? What happened?"
Cheng Xi didn't want to tell her family at first, but when Fang Qiu came, she had no choice but to briefly talk about what happened last night.
When Fang Qiu heard this, he was frightened, "You didn't tell me such a big thing. Do you still care about me as your mother? Fortunately, Mr. Pei came in time. Have you thanked him properly? I heard that you were still angry with him." Wow, it's so outrageous, Mr. Pei is your savior."
"Oh, Mom, I understand. Stop nagging. Your head is spinning." Cheng Xi felt a little regretful. If he had known better, he might as well have lied.
"I care about you, but you still think I'm verbose." Fang Qiu said angrily, "Study, just study. Who asked you to go to a place like a bar that is not good or bad? Don't be like your dad. God only knows how to drink and drink, and eventually he becomes an alcoholic.”
"Please, don't compare me to him." Cheng Xi waved her hands, "I will never go to a bar again."
"It's okay if you don't go." Fang Qiu nodded, "Mom, I only have a daughter like you. If something happens to you, I definitely don't want to live anymore."
Cheng Xi threw herself on the sofa and stared at the ceiling speechlessly.
Her mother was always like this, saying the same thing every time.
"Okay, you have a good rest and I'll cook for you." Fang Qiu pointed to the two big bags in his hand, "These are the supplements that Mr. Pei sent over when I went out. They include bird's nest, cordyceps, angelica, and gastrodia elata. , there were quite a lot of them, but some of them were... the old lady at home took away more than half of them, so I only brought these over, but it should be enough, I will make pigeon soup for you later."
Cheng Xi was in a complicated mood. She thought she would have to be cold with Pei Yanzhou for a while, but she didn't expect that he would give her supplements and let her family take care of her.
Fang Qiu looked at her daughter and couldn't help but curiously asked: "What's the situation between you and Mr. Pei now? He seems to have a much better attitude towards you."
"Well, the relationship has eased a bit." After Cheng Xi finished speaking, he suddenly said angrily, "Why did the old woman take away the things Pei Yanzhou gave me? It wasn't for her. She didn't take any delicious food from Cheng's house. , greedy."
Fang Qiu sighed, "She has that kind of character, why do you have to worry about her? After all, she is your Uncle Cheng's mother."
"It's Cheng Zhouhua's mother, not my mother." Cheng Xi is a person with clear grievances. "That year, I went with you to pay her New Year's greetings. How did she treat me? She even scolded me for a long time after eating her candy."
Fang Qiu murmured for a long time, and finally didn't know what to say, "Xixi, I'm going to cook."
Cheng Xi looked at Fang Qiu's back and sighed.
Her mother is too honest.
……
At noon, Cheng Xi drank the fragrant soup prepared by Fang Qiu and cooked all her favorite dishes.
I have to say that Fang Qiu's cooking skills are really good. "Mom, you said that with your skills, if you open a small restaurant, the business will definitely be good."
"It's just that you think it tastes good. Both your Uncle Cheng and Grandma Cheng say they're tired of eating what I cook."
Cheng Xi was speechless, "Mom, they are deliberately suppressing you to make you feel that you have no merit, so you are willing to cook for the Cheng family. You see what they say, but every time you cook, they are not There’s quite a lot to eat.”
"Really?" Fang Qiu was stunned, "Maybe you're hungry. If you don't eat mine, you won't have anything else to eat."
"How is it possible? Didn't you eat all the food you cooked?"
It was rare that there were only two of them in the apartment. Cheng Xi felt that it was time to have a good talk with her own mother, "Mom, there are some things that I couldn't say at Cheng's house before. I was afraid that the old lady would overhear. Let me tell you, you can pay for your living expenses as much as possible." Ask Uncle Cheng for more. Don't always listen to what he says about the company going public. You're so honest and embarrassed to ask him for money. Don't think too much of a man. I gave him all the betrothal money after I got married. Two and a half. Hundreds of millions, if he is short of money, it’s just because he doesn’t want to give you money.”
"Do you know how many times his company can double if it is successfully listed? And let's see if his attitude towards you is getting more and more impatient and worse. He often even uses the excuse of being too busy at work to go home and takes care of his family members. Mother is left to you alone to take care of?"
Seeing Fang Qiu's face getting worse, Cheng Xi sneered, "As soon as his property is transferred, once he doesn't want you, you won't get a penny. I'm not asking you to share his property. You're not that kind of person. , but you must have a guarantee for your future life."
Fang Qiu tightened his chopsticks uncomfortably, and after a while he said, "Xixi, did you hear what Cheng Yue said."
"My sister didn't tell me that she had too much time to take care of her own marriage. It's just that when I accompanied Sister Cheng Yue to an appointment with two families for dinner last time, I went there. Didn't you see the look in Uncle Cheng's eyes at Aunt Su? It’s like he’s remarried, but Aunt Su doesn’t like him.”
Cheng Xi didn't hide anything from Fang Qiu. She wanted her mother to be prepared, "Mom, haven't you seen through Uncle Cheng yet? Ever since he took the hundreds of millions from the Pei family, has his attitude towards you become worse and worse?" Shit, he used to hide his dislike for a while, but now he doesn’t hide it at all.”
After a pause, Cheng Xi snorted, "Why? I didn't buy him what he has today with my own marriage. If it weren't for me, he would have completely offended the Pei family. He begged me in the first place." This was not the attitude when I was asked to marry someone else."
Fang Qiu felt sour and painful.
She gave up her job for the sake of the Cheng family and turned herself into a yellow-faced woman. What she got in exchange was Cheng Zhouhua's disdain, which she actually knew a long time ago.
It’s just that I’ve been like this for most of my life, and I’m numb.
Furthermore, she had been divorced once, and if she divorced again, she would only be criticized, and even her own daughter would be looked down upon.
"I will pay attention. Don't worry about me. As long as you finish your studies and work hard, I will be satisfied." Fang Qiu picked up vegetables for his daughter.
Cheng Xi felt distressed, "Mom, why don't you stay with me for a few days? My body is quite weak."
Fang Qiu hesitated for a moment, and finally nodded.
Cheng Xi breathed a sigh of relief. She was going to buy some sets of clothes for Fang Qiu in the next few days so that she could have a good rest.
It had only been a while since Fang Qiu had been rubbed down by that old woman, and he had become very haggard.
After eating, Fang Qiu called Cheng Zhouhua and said he would go back in a few days.
When Cheng Zhouhua heard this, he was unwilling, "If you live in Cheng Xina, what will happen to my mother? Who will take care of her?"
"Mom... she can cook by herself..."
"My mother is so old. If you let her cook by herself, Fang Qiu, won't your conscience hurt?" Cheng Zhouhua said angrily, "Can't you let Cheng Xi go home to live? She's just being pretentious. The house is so big and it's not There is no place for her to live.”
