After hearing what Cheng Zhufeng said, Mrs. Cheng was afraid to speak.
She originally wanted to test her husband's tone, but at this moment, after testing her husband's tone, Mrs. Cheng did not expect that her husband's hatred for Cheng Susu had not changed.
While she was hesitating, Cheng Zhufeng obviously felt something. He only said coldly, "What did that girl tell you? Doesn't she want to come back?"
Unexpectedly, Cheng Zhufeng guessed right, and Mrs. Cheng was cruel. Then he gritted his teeth and nodded.
Cheng Zhufeng then said, "Humph! I knew that since she was determined to elope with someone that day, she shouldn't think about coming back. Besides, the sisters were all talking about getting married. What was she doing here? Could it be that she wanted to implicate other sisters? Not even a good marriage?"
"If she knew any shame, she should find a rope to commit suicide. Don't implicate other sisters!" Cheng Zhufeng gritted his teeth when he said this last sentence.
Mrs. Cheng raised her head and looked at Cheng Zhufeng, but she didn't say anything for a long time. After a long time, she whispered softly, "Husband, she is your daughter after all."
When Cheng Zhufeng heard this, he just looked at Mr. Cheng coldly. After a long moment, he said coldly, "Of course I know she is my daughter, but it would be better not to have such a scoundrel."
When Mrs. Cheng heard this, she just shed tears. Could it be that her daughter really couldn't come back?
Finally thinking about her daughter, Mrs. Cheng finally hesitated and said, "Husband, in fact, Su Su begged me not simply because she had no place to stay. She begged me because she is now in a good marriage. She wants to use her original identity to marry the other person."
"A good marriage? Is she wishful thinking? Who would fall in love with her?" Cheng Zhufeng scolded Mrs. Cheng without thinking.
After hearing what Cheng Zhufeng said, Mrs. Cheng just gritted her teeth and said, "It's the one from the Lu family."
"What about the Lu family?" Cheng Zhufeng asked coldly.
"Of course it's Mr. Lu Zhizhang who is in the limelight right now."
"Huh! She is really just dreaming. She doesn't even know what she is like. She still wants to have anything to do with that person. How could that person like her?" Cheng Zhufeng refuted Cheng without thinking. Madam's thoughts.
Mrs. Cheng was naturally not willing to give in. Anyway, that was all she had to say.
"Isn't that Mr. Lu a widower now? Why isn't my daughter worthy of him?"
"Do you know how many wealthy people from Beijing have contacted him now that his wife has recently died?"
"Which of those women is not better than your good daughter?"
"Isn't Susu your daughter too?" Cheng couldn't help but asked again.
Cheng Zhufeng listened to Mrs. Cheng's words, and then whispered, "I don't have such a shameful daughter."
Cheng's heart became cold when he heard this.
"Husband, why are you so cruel?" After saying this, Cheng's brows became darker.
Hearing this, Cheng Zhufeng only said coldly, "Not only am I cruel, you go back and tell your good daughter that I won't care about her! Even if she wants to marry the prime minister of the dynasty, I can't care about her."
After hearing this, Mrs. Cheng burst into tears immediately.
Everyone says that parents love their children and do not hesitate to take care of them in the long run? However, with Cheng Zhufeng, the love she could feel was clearly limited.
After all, the child did not come out of his belly. After all, he had never suffered such a crime and had no huge sunk costs. How could he truly love his children deeply?
And perhaps this love was not pure from the moment she gave birth to her own children.
The purpose of giving birth to a boy is to carry on the family line and continue one's own genes.
The purpose of giving birth to a daughter is to get married and consolidate and continue one's territory.
So once the other party fails to meet his expectations, they will treat this part of the gene cruelly, and even treat it as non-performing assets.
In the final analysis, whether it is a wife or children, these are just materials under the authority of the father.
It's ridiculous that the world still has to make up a word in the name of love for this.
After Cheng Susu's incident, Mrs. Cheng also looked down upon Cheng Zhufeng for a while, but she didn't know how to explain it to her daughter.
Therefore, she did not go to see Su Su during this period of time.
She didn't even know how to face Cheng Susu.
While she was hesitant, Cheng Susu was very anxiously waiting for information from her mother. As the days passed and her mother failed to contact her, she couldn't hold it anymore, so she decided Take the initiative to find your mother.
She remembered that her mother would go to the nearby Fulu Temple every week to burn incense, so she went there to wait for her mother.
On this day, Shizheng only went to Fulu Temple with others to burn incense. She had just stepped onto the stone steps when she heard someone calling her "Madam" under the stone steps.
As soon as she turned around, she saw a woman wearing a curtain. Although the woman's face was unclear, Cheng still knew that she was her daughter. .
Several women traveling with Cheng asked in confusion, "Who is this?"
Mrs. Cheng only whispered, "It's my niece from far away. Madams, please go first. You don't have to wait for me."
After hearing what Cheng said, the other ladies couldn't help but look at the girl, but they had a tacit understanding and didn't say much.
It wasn't until Mrs. Qi led her daughter away that one of the ladies said, "When did she have a distant niece? How come I haven't heard of it before."
Hearing the lady's words, several others smiled tacitly. Although they could not recognize the woman at first sight, they could guess the woman's identity from Qi's attitude and their own intuition.
It's just that it's Cheng's family scandal. If Cheng wants to cover it up, they naturally have no reason to expose it.
Another laughed and said, "There are still many things you don't know."
On the other side, Ms. Cheng quickly pulled Cheng Susu under a large maple tree that was deserted. It was still early spring, and except for the decaying branches and leaves, the tree was all alone and bare.
Cheng scolded her in a low voice, "Susu, why did you come here so rashly? If people find out, do you know how much gossip they will say behind your back?"
When Cheng Susu heard this, she felt a prick in her heart, but thinking that she was now a shame in the family, she did not dare to say anything.
Besides, she also expected her mother to help her.
"Mother, I will never look for you like this again. I can't wait for news from you, so I thought of looking for you like this."
"Okay, stop talking." Mrs. Cheng said coldly.
After hearing what Cheng said, Cheng Susu's eyebrows suddenly dimmed.
But she still had a glimmer of hope. "Mom, what did dad say?"
When it comes to this, Mrs. Cheng can only be a little hesitant. "I'm afraid your father is not so easy to persuade, and your eldest sister is getting married again."
"So mother didn't tell dad about me?" Cheng Susu suddenly lowered her eyebrows and asked, but think about it, her mother has been very afraid of her father since she was a child, and she would not dare to ask her to speak for herself. of.
Although she didn't want to count on her mother, there was nothing she could do. This weak mother was the only person she could rely on, after all, if she didn't have her mother. She has no one she can trust anymore.
Moreover, other people would stay away from me if they saw me, not to mention helping me.
Thinking of this, Cheng Susu looked at her mother indifferently. After a while, she whispered softly, "Mother, my daughter is begging you. You can talk to your father. Even if you are not a father, I will just scold you." , and the daughter can marry into a good family."
Mrs. Cheng sighed, and she couldn't bear to face Cheng Susu's pleading eyes. She just avoided her eyes and said, "Why didn't I tell your father? But your father still has the same tone as before. Susu, don't expect it." It's impossible for your father to agree to it, he doesn't have you in his heart at all now."
Hearing this, Cheng Susu only thought that Cheng was making it up. She didn't believe it, "Daddy really doesn't agree?"
Cheng naturally nodded again. She whispered, "Susu, don't count on your father. Your father is really unreliable now. You don't know that he even said he hoped you would die. As for the Lu family, he doesn't believe it at all."
Hearing this, Cheng Susu couldn't help but take a few steps back. She finally believed this. Only her father could say these words.
Cheng Susu said no more.
Seeing her silent posture, Mrs. Cheng couldn't help but want to hand the money in her hand to Cheng Su.
Su "Su Su, I'm sorry for you. It's no use weirding me out. I really can't help you. Just take this money and live a good life."
Cheng Susu looked at her mother indifferently, wondering what she thought of.
She smiled softly and said, "No, mother, just stay by yourself and live a good life."
"In the final analysis, the daughter is useless, so it is normal for the father to be disappointed with his daughter." Cheng Susu continued softly.
After saying this, Cheng Susu left without any regret.
Mrs. Cheng hurriedly followed up and said, "Susu, how can a girl like you live without money?"
Cheng Susu did not answer Cheng's words. If she looked through the curtain, Cheng could see indifference and disappointment on her face, and her fists were tightly clenched.
She had never made such a big mistake in her life.
She made the mistake of not knowing people well. Why did she have to betray so many people?
If it weren't for the elopement, she would probably never see the other side of her parents.
It's just that she can't care about sadness. Now that the road ahead is unclear, she has to make some final plans for herself.
She wanted to try Lu Zhizhang again. If he could be relied upon, she would let him go.
If Lu Zhizhang was unreliable, she didn't know what to do at the moment.
Under a willow tree outside the study, a young man dressed in plain clothes stood far away under the tree.
On the other side, Cheng Susu, who had transcribed all his father's poems, finally decided to go find the young man.
But when Cheng Susu came to the young man, the young man was already surrounded by several women who were chatting with him.
Lu Zhizhang naturally showed no pretense in the face of these chats. Soon the girls felt bored and gave up on chatting.
