Poor Family

"It's really inexplicable."

Shi Dinghao returned to Yigui Courtyard with a bad complexion, and when he entered the room, he saw Shi Dingxuan, Shi Fuyin, and Shi Fuxin all there: "Fifth Brother, Third Sister, and Sixth Sister."

Shi Fuyin looked at him: "What's the matter, you look unhappy?"

Shi Dinghao snorted: "I just saw the eldest brother and the second brother in the garden. I was planning to go over to say hello, but they pretended not to see me and walked away."

Shi Fuyin and Shi Dingxuan glanced at each other quickly, they had encountered such a situation before.

Shi Fuxin sneered and said: "The people in the mansion probably think that we are too cruel to Li Zhengkun, and they are a little afraid of us."

Shi Dinghao snorted coldly: "Li Zhengkun is not cruel to us? Listen to the rumors and rumors spread by the Li family. They really want to punish us to death."

Shi Dingxuan sighed: "People in the world sympathize with the weak. Li Zhengkun lost his official position, but we retired completely. The Shi family naturally felt that they were even more pitiful."

Shi Dinghao snorted, "That's what he deserves." With a sneer on his face, "Li Zhengkun brought the Li family close to the capital for the sake of fame, and not only did he not restrain them, but he even allowed them to make trouble. Everything is his fault now. He asked for it. The people in the mansion still sympathize with him, he is really speechless."

Shi Fuxin saw that her brothers and sisters were all frowning, and asked in puzzlement, "Why are you angry?"

Shi Dinghao stared: "Shouldn't we be angry with the attitude of the people in the house?"

Shi Fuxin: "I'm not angry."

Shi Dinghao choked.

Shi Fuxin said with a serious face: "The reason why you are angry is because you care about the opinions of the people in the house. I don't care, so whether they are happy or not, it has no effect on me."

As he said that, he looked at the three of them very seriously, "I don't have a big heart, and I can't hold too many people who care."

Shi Fuyin hesitated and said: "But, they are relatives, we must take their feelings into consideration."

Shi Fuxin shook her head in disapproval: "Why should we take into account their feelings? Could it be that we have become them, and we want to let the Li family's bad words seriously hurt us?"

"The people in the house are uncomfortable because they have feelings for Li Zhengkun. If someone else deals with Li Zhengkun, they will still feel uncomfortable."

"We can't control other people's feelings, all we can do is take care of our own feelings."

"The Li family spread rumors and hurt us, so we have to fight back. Now that Li Zhengkun has lost his official position, the life of the Li family must be difficult. We should be happy. Why should we be unhappy because of the people in the house?"

Shi Fuxin looked at her brothers and sisters solemnly: "You can't care too much about others, otherwise, it will affect your behavior and judgment."

Shi Dinghao had always listened to Shi Fuxin's words, nodded his head and said: "Sixth sister is right, let the Li family get the punishment they deserve, I think we did the right thing."

"That's right."

Shi Fuxin smiled and said: "No matter what decision we make, we are responsible for ourselves, regardless of what other people think, we are the ones who bear the consequences, not others, of course we do what is good for us."

"The world exists because of me. If others want to enter my world, they must first adapt to me, not me to adapt to others."

Shi Dinghao nodded straight with a smile: "That's right, just like when I was in the Imperial College, if someone wants to be my friend, they have to like me first."

Shi Fuyin and Shi Dingxuan looked at each other with a smile, what the younger sister said always refreshed their eyes and ears, many things would be much easier if they followed the younger sister's way.

After chatting a few words about the Shi family, Shi Fuxin started to talk about business: "Although the rumors and gossips between our family and the Li family have been suppressed, this matter is not over yet."

Hearing this, the three of Shi Dingxuan became serious.

Shi Dingxuan nodded: "Li Zhengkun has lost his official position, and now he is alone. The Li family should not have any influence on us."

"However, we should pay more attention to the Zeng family."

Shi Fuyin, Shi Fuxin, and Shi Dinghao all agreed.

Although Zeng Yuwei's father lost his official position, the Zeng family still has a concubine who is pregnant with a dragon seed, and Zeng Yuwei's two elder brothers are also serving as officials in other provinces.

Shi Fuxin frowned: "There is also the Sixth Prince who is behind the scenes."

A prince stared at his family, Shi Dingxuan and the others were a little dignified.

Baishun Street, Li's House.

Li Zhengkun was dismissed from office, Zeng Yuwei, mother and son, and the Li family felt that the sky was about to fall.

"It's all of you. If you hadn't come to Beijing, my father wouldn't have lost his job. Your family is a bastard." Li Furan couldn't control her emotions and yelled at the Li family.

The Li family was stunned by the scolding, and then, Mrs. Li sat on the ground, slapped her thigh and cried, "Oh, I'm dead. I'm shameless to be scolded by my granddaughter."

As soon as Mrs. Li cried, the two daughters-in-law immediately joined the crying scene with their daughters.

Seeing the Li family members who were rolling around, Zeng Yuwei was so angry that her face was livid, and she pointed at Li Laoniang tremblingly: "You have caused the husband to lose his official position, and now you are doing this to make him unable to stay in the capital?" ?”

Father Li still knew a little bit about the seriousness, so he hurried over to stop Old Lady Li.

Of course, Mrs. Li didn't want Li Zhengkun to be unable to stay in the capital. While wiping her tears, she looked at Li Zhengkun who was sitting silently:

"Son, you know, we don't understand anything, what can be said and what can't be said, and no one told us, your daughter-in-law has never dissuaded us, but if she says a word, it will affect you and kill us I won't talk nonsense either."

Zeng Yuwei was trembling with anger when she heard Mrs. Li put all the responsibility on herself. Just as she was about to say something, she saw Li Zhengkun raised her eyes and looked over.

Li Zhengkun looked at the Zeng family and his children, and then at the Li family: "That day at Chaoyang Restaurant, Shi Fuxin and Shi Dinghao confronted me, why didn't any of you show up?"

His home was only a few tens of meters away from Chaoyang Restaurant, and there was so much movement, he couldn't believe that he didn't hear any news from his home.

As long as someone in the family passed by, he would not be so passive.

Neither Zeng Yuwei's mother nor the Li family expected him to ask this question, and they didn't speak for a while.

Zeng Yuwei didn't take the child there because she couldn't save face and didn't want to be pointed at in public.

The Li family didn't go there because of a guilty conscience.

Li Zhengkun looked at Mrs. Li and Mrs. Li: "Are the Li family and Shi Zhenghe's divorce papers true?"

Mrs. Li: "Son, why are you still talking about that white-eyed wolf now? What you have to think about now is, how can you find a way to make you a new official?"

Hearing this, Li Zhengkun sneered: "Do you think I can still be an official?"

Mrs. Li said confidently: "Of course I can. You have studied hard for decades, and your head is full of knowledge. You are born to be an official."

"You grew up in the capital, so you must know a lot of people. Isn't it easy to ask someone to find a relationship and spend some money to become an official again?"

When Li Zhengkun heard this, he felt absurd. He ignored Mrs. Li, but looked at Father Li: "So, the Li family really treated Shi Zhenghe harshly, right?"

Father Li frowned, pursed his lips and said nothing.

Seeing him like this, Li Zhengkun burst out laughing, the smile was very sad: "When you are lying, don't you think that the lie will be exposed?"

Mrs. Li: "Where did we expect it to be like this! It's all because of that black-hearted family."

"enough!"

Li Zhengkun interrupted Mrs. Li's words quickly: "The reason why you lied recklessly is because you never thought of taking responsibility. Now that the lies have been exposed, I alone bear all the accusations from outsiders."

That day at Chaoyang Restaurant, if a member of the Li family showed up to help him refute Shi Fuxin's siblings, outsiders would not completely favor Shi Zhenghe's family.

Seeing the anger on Li Zhengkun's face, Mrs. Li was a little scared and angry, pointing at Zeng Yuwei and said: "Isn't it your good wife who came to tell me how well Li Changsen's family is doing, and that Xungui values ​​reputation the most? If your reputation is ruined, no one will take care of you no matter how powerful you are, Mother just wants to help you suppress Li Changsen's family."

Li Zhengkun looked at Zeng Yuwei with a 'swish'.

Zeng Yuwei's eyes were a little evasive, and she didn't dare to look directly at Li Zhengkun.

Li Zhengkun smiled sadly, his future was cut off by his wife and his biological parents, how sad!

Li Zhengkun stumbled out of the mansion. He didn't want to see the Li family, and he didn't want to face his wife and children, so he just walked on the street in a daze. As he walked, he came to Changle East Street.

Looking at the gate of Wuchang Uncle's Mansion, Li Zhengkun's eyes were moist.

He regretted it, he shouldn't have brought the Li family to Beijing.

Before the Li family came, even if the relationship between him and the uncle's house was alienated because of Shi Zhenghe, the uncle's house would at least take care of him, and he could at least consult with the people in the house when something happened.

But now, everything is gone.

Li Zhengkun squatted at the corner of Changle East Street until it was almost dark, then he got up and left in a daze. When he passed the Xi'an Gate of the Imperial City, a carriage passed in front of him.

"Tsk tsk, it looks so pitiful."

In the carriage, Chu Qian shook his head and sighed.

Chu Yao, who was sitting opposite, had a calm expression: "He asked for everything."

After a pause, "Some family members are poisonous. Once they get on it, they will drag you into the abyss, and you will never turn over."

Thinking of the information collected about Shi Zhenghe's family before, Chu Yao continued: "In order to get rid of the Li family, Shi Zhenghe and Shi Dingxuan's father and son almost died. If you are smart, you should see the blood-sucking nature of the Li family."

"Not all family members can bring warmth to others."
