Chapter 239, Toxic 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 wrong, you look unhappy?"
Shi Dinghao snorted: "I just saw the eldest brother and the second brother in the garden. I was going 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 house 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 gossips 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 has lost his official position, but we have retired. The Shi family naturally feel that they are 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: "The people in the house have such an attitude, shouldn't we be angry?"
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 unhappy, it has no effect on me."
As he spoke, 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 their feelings into consideration? 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 mansion 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. What we can do is to 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 elder brother and younger brother solemnly: "You can't care too much about others, otherwise, it will affect your own behavior and judgment."
Shi Dinghao has always listened to Shi Fuxin's words, nodded his head and said: "Sixth sister is right, let the Li family be punished as they should, I think we are doing 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. The words of the younger sister can always refresh their eyes and ears. Many things can be done a lot easier by following the younger sister's method.
After chatting with the Shi family for a few words, 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."
There was a prince eyeing his family, Shi Dingxuan and the others were a little dignified.
Baishun Street, Li Residence.
Li Zhengkun was dismissed from office, Zeng Yuwei, mother and son, and the Li family felt that the sky was about to collapse.
"It's all 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."
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 already caused the husband to lose his official position, and now you are doing this to make him unable to stay in the capital?" ?”
Papa Li still knew a little bit about the seriousness, so he hurried over to stop Lao Niang 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 that Mrs. Li had put all the blame on herself. Just as she was about to say something, she saw Li Zhengkun raised her eyes and looked over.
Li Zhengkun looked at Zeng 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 is 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 passes by, he will not be so passive.
Zeng Yuwei's mother and son and the Li family didn't expect him to ask this, 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 did not go through the past, entirely because of guilty conscience.
Li Zhengkun looked at Father Li and Old Lady Li: "Are all the things written in the divorce papers by the Li family and Shi Zhenghe true?"
Mrs. Li: "My son, what are you still talking about that white-eyed wolf doing now? What you want to think about now is, what way can you find to get you to become an official again."
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 people to find connections and spend some money to become an official again?"
Li Zhengkun listened, a kind of ridiculous absurdity, ignored Mrs. Li, but looked at Father Li: "So, the Li family really treated Shi Zhenghe harshly, right?"
Papa Li frowned, pursed his lips and said nothing.
Seeing him like this, Li Zhengkun laughed out loud, with a very sad smile: "When you are lying, don't you think that the lie will be exposed?"
Mrs. Li: "How could we have imagined that it would 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 lie 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 'shua'.
Zeng Yuwei's eyes were a little dodgy, and she didn't dare to look directly at Li Zhengkun.
Li Zhengkun smiled sadly. How sad that his future was cut off by his wife and his biological parents!
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. He just walked on the street in a daze. As he walked, he came to Changle East Street.
Looking at the gate of Wuchangbo Mansion, Li Zhengkun's eyes were a little moist.
He regretted it, he shouldn't have brought the Li family to Beijing.
Before the Li family came, even if his relationship with the Bo’s house was alienated because of Shi Zhenghe, the Bo’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."
Paused, "Some family members are poisonous. Once they get on it, they will pull 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 people."
