Chapter 593 It’s Great to Marry You in This Life (1)
Seeing that his father was willing to vent his anger on him, Ling Zhongyou was overjoyed, and immediately told about the rich businessman in Piaoxiang Building at that time, and based on what he had inquired from the oiran lady's maid before, the rich businessman did not live in Piaoxiang Building at night, but lived in the Piaoxiang Building. The news from a big mansion in the city suggested that it would be better if they hired someone at night to ambush the rich businessman on his way back, and beat him up while it was dark.

So at night, the rich businessman went out from the back door of Piaoxiang Building, and was blocked in a secluded alley. Although he brought several followers, he was outnumbered, and the master and servant were all beaten to death. In desperation, one of his entourage revealed his identity. Only then did Ling Siqi and his son know that the other party was not a wealthy businessman from other places. , is to deceive people.

Now Ling Siqi and Ling Zhongyoufang knew that their family had caused a catastrophe, and it was not impossible to escape while taking advantage of the chaos, but the idlers they hired to help beat people knew their identities, they could run away like monks but not temples.

The young master who hit the magistrate, of course, can't think of kindness. According to the original intention of the magistrate, Ling Siqi and Ling Zhongyou must be killed so that the hatred in their hearts can be relieved.

It was Mrs. Ling who made a decisive decision and sold the only land left in her dowry, forcing Mrs. Zhao to sell her own too. She collected a few thousand silver and sent it to the magistrate, and then brought out Ling Mengqi's name. No, my eldest grandson is already a fourth-rank acquaintance of Jinyiwei. In terms of rank, he is one level higher than the magistrate. What's more, Ling Mengqi is a fourth-rank of Jinyiwei. The real confidant of the emperor, please prefect Adults must accommodate one or two.

The magistrate has been an official in Linzhou for many years. In the early years before the Ling family was confiscated, they often visited each other. He knew more or less about the past affairs of the Ling family. At first, he refused to let Ling Siqi and his son look at Ling Mengqi's face. It was Mrs. Ling who said that they and Ling Mengqi were a family after all, and the bones were still connected. Could it be that Ling Mengqi would watch his father and younger brother being killed by him and still remain indifferent?

It’s easy to talk about it, but I learned that the master of the house agreed to make big things small and small things small, but the Ling family in Linzhou couldn’t stay any longer, so they couldn’t wait for years, so they packed up the remaining things and hired two cars. Carriage, the whole family came to the capital to join Ling Mengqi.

It's just that Ling Siqi never expected that Ling Mengqi would be so honest with them, especially for his father. He has always wanted to get close to him timidly, even if he looks at him more, can he be so happy that he can't find Bei? You see it, don't you?

But anger turns into anger, but Ling Siqi has to admit that what his mother said is right, a person under the roof has to win the head, if his attitude continues to be so tough, that evil son can really do it With the matter of driving out with this big family, they will not be able to go back to Linzhou by then, and the capital will not be familiar with the place, and they will have no money, no money, no support, so they can only live on the streets?

Seeing that her son had been silent all this time, old lady Ling knew that he still listened to her own words in her heart, she secretly breathed a sigh of relief, and said: "Now we live here, but we live in a guest house, so it's still like this. There are many people crowded in the same yard, obviously Meng Qi and his wife really didn't plan to let us live forever, just now Mrs. Zhao said something right, now we have to find a way to win Meng Qi's heart back, As long as we win his heart, and we occupy the status of elders again, then the Lu family will be reluctant to keep us, and there is nothing we can do."

Hearing this, Ling Siqi was silent for a while, and then said in a deep voice, "I will follow what mother wants to do."

The old lady Ling sighed: "Actually, I don't have any good ideas for a while. I just know that you can't treat Meng Qi like this anymore. You have to be kind to him and care about him more. Give me the Zhao mother and son." Lower your attitude, even if Meng Qi slaps them on the left cheek, they have to immediately send me the right cheek for him to slap. After all, Meng Qi doesn't want to see us, a large part of the reason is their mother and son On the body...Anyway, all of us have to be low-key, we don't smile or talk when we see their husband and wife, the so-called stretching out our hands and not hitting smiling people, I'm afraid we won't be able to soften them up after a long time."

"...Well, just do what mother said." Ling Siqi agreed in a muffled voice, but his heart was full of depression and aggrieved. He never imagined that one day, he would have to bow his head to his son who he had always regarded as nothing!
The old lady Ling sighed again: "Who told us that we can't predict the future, we don't know that one day we will be reduced to such a situation, otherwise I would have to treat Meng Qi better... It is also because he has the ability. He came to Beijing just to let Old Duke Ding see his old friendship with your father and reward him with a bowl of rice to keep him from starving to death. Who knew he would be so promising, but short In just a few years, he has achieved the fourth rank and married such a daughter-in-law, we all have to rely on his breath to live?"

"Not only do we depend on him for food and clothing, but in the future when You'er and Chengwen marry their wives, Sister Shuang and Sister Fei's Xu family will all have to rely on their husband and wife. It would be difficult for their brothers and sisters to get married in such a small place, let alone in the capital? Don’t feel aggrieved. It’s better to bow your head to your own son than to outsiders. As long as you get through the first few days, I believe It will get better in the future!"

Mrs. Ling thought very well. Since the eldest grandson is promising, it is natural that those who are capable should work harder to make everyone's life better. Otherwise, what is it called a family?
He completely forgot that his family has never treated Ling Mengqi as a family for a long time, and never shared his blessings with him. Instead, he has suffered countless hardships alone...

Over here, when Mrs. Ling was talking to Ling Siqi, Zhao Shi and Ling Zhongyou, who were separated from their mother and child by the same room, also lowered their voices and were talking like crazy.

"I didn't expect that little bastard to be here today. Not to mention being a senior official of the fourth rank, he also married such a beautiful daughter-in-law. If I had known this, I should have come to Beijing in the first place. Even he can do it in the Dingguo Palace." Accept it, and find an official position for him and betroth the young lady to him. If I come, wouldn’t everything he has today be mine? I don’t care, mother, that little bastard is inferior to me in everything, so naturally he should now Similarly, these things should belong to me, you must find a way to get them back for me!"

Originally, Ling Zhongyou had been the son of the Marquis Mansion for more than ten years, and he was no more treated by the old lady Ling and Ling Siqi than Ling Mengqi. He really grew up in a honeypot, and he has seen and used good things. Ling Mengqi only had three entrances to this room, and the decoration was not much. A magnificent house was out of his sight.
