Chapter 43 The villain’s cannon fodder
Lin Wan knew at a glance that he was thinking wrongly, "Mingcheng and the others didn't pop out of rocks, so how could they not have a father? It's just that their father went to join the army many years ago and there has been no news, so we
Didn't mention him."
"As for General Huo... he is indeed Ming Cheng's father, but he has lost his memory and has forgotten the past."
"Doesn't that mean Cheng is a stranger to him?"
"That's right." After a pause, "Fortunately, he has not had children for so many years, otherwise I wouldn't know what to tell Ming Cheng and the others."
Said that your father went out to fight and brought back a half-brother and sister to you?
That was simply too heartbreaking.
"There aren't any messy women around him, right?" Gu Wensong said with concern. If there were, it would be too unfair for his Aunt Lin. Even though he had worked so hard to bring up the child, his husband also married another woman.
"No, I heard that he has been single for so many years."
"That's fine, otherwise we can't let Ming admit him."
"The key issue now is that he has lost his memory. I'm worried that Mingcheng and the others will be sad."
Gu Wensong waved his hand, "Aunt Lin, you will be confused if you care. Mingcheng and the three of them are not so fragile."
The two ended the conversation.
"Madam... I won, I won, the young master won the first prize." The servant said as he ran, looking very happy.
Lin Wan was also visibly happy, "Is he back yet?" Although she had always been mentally prepared, at this moment, she still couldn't control her happiness.
Number one scholar!
She asked people to take out all the firecrackers that had been prepared, and opened them only when Xu Mingcheng came back.
"Congratulations." Zhou Lin stepped forward and said, his eyes never leaving Lin Wan. He came back after sending Xu Mingyu to the military camp and followed Lin Wan all the time.
"Thank you, congratulations."
The top scorers, second place winners, and top picks in the imperial examinations would ride on red-headed horses and parade through the streets. Some bold girls would throw sachets at them. When Xu Mingcheng returned, he had a scent that did not belong to him.
The sound of firecrackers sounded, and Lin Wan hurried out to greet her. Xu Mingcheng lifted up his robe and knelt down towards her, then kowtowed three times, "Mom, my child has lived up to your years of teachings."
Lin helped him up before nightfall, "Mother knows that you have always worked hard. You are a good role model for your brothers and a good son for me."
Xu Mingcheng looked at her with more and more distressed eyes. Mothers like these have suffered too much, especially when he saw him in the main hall and confirmed his identity, he felt even more distressed.
He felt sorry for his mother who had raised the three brothers alone. Even after life got better, she never stopped being busy, and even got busier. She often didn't see anyone for several days, but he knew that her mother worked so hard for them.
But their father did not look for them after he came back safely. He was living happily in Shengjing, and even pretended he didn't know him when he saw him.
Even after all these years, they didn't have much hope, but they were still happy when they saw the person, but they couldn't believe it when he was treated as a stranger.
They couldn't believe that their father, who loved them so much, treated him as a stranger after seeing him.
He didn't know the reason, but at that moment his heart was cut by a knife.
Lin Wan didn't know what was wrong with him, but she clearly felt that his mood was wrong. After thinking about it, she understood that she might have met Xu Dashan face to face, but Xu Dashan did not recognize him.
She had the impression that Xu Dashan loved these three sons very much, especially Xu Mingcheng. Because he was the first child, Xu Dashan loved him far more than the other two.
So Xu Mingcheng would definitely be sad when he saw that Xu Dashan didn't recognize him.
After all the congratulators left, their family sat together. Xu Mingan's eyes were obviously excited, "Brother, I knew you could do it. It would be great if the second brother was here." There was still longing in his words.
Xu Mingcheng said lightly. Xu Ming'an was still chattering, but Xu Mingcheng obviously didn't listen. Lin Wan felt helpless, "You have seen him."
"Yeah." Xu Mingcheng was a little depressed. Just because he didn't mention it for so many years doesn't mean he didn't want to.
Xu Ming'an knew something was wrong even after another meal, not to mention he was not stupid. He looked at Lin Wan and then at Xu Mingcheng, "Mom, who are you talking about?"
The eldest brother seems to still care.
"Your father." Lin Wan's expression was indifferent, as if he was talking about someone unrelated. Zhou Lin's hands subconsciously tightened, but he soon loosened them.
Xu Mingcheng's eyes tightened subconsciously, it turned out that his mother already knew.
Xu Ming'an looked at them in surprise, "My father? I still have a father?"
Lin Wan: "..."
Xu Mingcheng: "..."
Zhou Lin: "..."
"There has been no contact for so many years. Where did he come from?" Xu Mingcheng was shocked but did not show how much he missed him.
This is understandable. After all, he was still young when Xu Dashan joined the army and had no memory at all. Moreover, no one mentioned Xu Dashan for so many years. He thought he had no father. He was just afraid that his mother would be sad, so he didn't mention it.
Pass.
Who would have thought that he actually had a father?
Looking at the eldest brother's appearance, it seems that his father still doesn't recognize his eldest brother?
Could it be that he has remarried and had children? No, his mother is the wife. Even if he has children again, that woman is not his wife and can only be regarded as a concubine.
If that man wanted his mother to give up her position as the main wife, he wouldn't agree to it. Why did his mother work so hard to bring them up, and the man was enjoying the success, and now he wanted to abandon his mother? There was no way he could let him succeed.
Unless his mother takes the initiative to not want him, they have been here for so many years, and they don’t care whether he has a father or not. If he has married another man, he will not let his mother suffer. He must let his mother dump him. She must be so capable.
People like it.
He felt that Master Zhou Lin was pretty good, definitely better than that heartless man.
What should I do if my hand is a little itchy? Lin Wan slapped Xu Ming'an on the head. Xu Ming'an was stunned. "Mom, why did you hit me?" Although it wasn't very serious, there were only a handful of times that my mother had hit him in so many years.
, the last time was many years ago, and he was beaten because his wife sued him.
He doesn't seem to have done anything excessive now, right?
"What do you mean he jumped out of nowhere? He is not a stone. He joined the army when you were young. Although he is not always with you, he is a great hero." Although she was not interested in Xu Dashan, she
It is also true that he has made a lot of achievements over the years, and everything was achieved by his own hard work. The reason why he stayed in Shengjing was because his right hand was injured. He was not affected at all and could live for two years.
You can move, but you can't hold the weapon for a long time, let alone go to the battlefield.
If you make a mistake of a thousand miles, if you are two steps slower than others on the battlefield, you will be killed. Not to mention that if you are not flexible enough to hold a weapon, there is no difference between that and death.
