C144 Anger
Seeing that her father was really angry, Tong Wangrong's eyes reddened as she lowered her head in grievance and choked with sobs, "Father, I .. I didn't mean to lie to you. "I was afraid that you would scold me after I said those words." Ever since she was young, her father had always loved her dearly and never scolded her once. This time, seeing him yell at her like that, she truly felt wronged.
Seeing that his precious daughter was crying, Mr. Tong's heart softened again. He sighed heavily and asked helplessly, "Rong'er, why did you look for Zi Yan's fiancee yesterday?"
He really did not want to see his precious daughter, for a man, disregarding her reputation and doing something stupid.
Sure enough, his father knew. Who told him that? Xia He?
No, Xia He was her servant, she would definitely not tell her father about this. If it was really her, she would definitely beat her up.
Coachman? It wasn't really possible, and if he did, it wouldn't do him any good either.
Other than them, there was only Liu Zhimo left.
Maybe Li Qingling had complained to Liu Zhimo, but in order to help Li Qingling vent his anger, Liu Zhimo told his father.
When she thought of this, Tong Wangrong's heart felt sour and astringent. She wiped the tears at the corner of her eyes and said, "Daddy, this .. Who told you this? " She did not hear the answer from her own ears. She did not want to accept what she had guessed.
"Then who do you think told me?" Mr. Tong did not directly answer her, but asked her anyway.
This daughter of his was not some fool. It was impossible for him to not even be able to guess at this point.
She just didn't want to accept reality.
Tong Wangrong bit her lower lip hard. After a while, she finally said in a low voice, Is it Liu Zhimo?
"En." Mr. Tong looked at his daughter who had her head lowered and said, "He came to me today to tell me that his fiancee offended you yesterday and told me to pass on his fiancee's apology .." He sighed, "It's just that Liu Zhimo doesn't want to make it so clear, so he told me to be tactful and let me take care of you, understand?"
How could he not understand the meaning behind Liu Zhimo's words?
Rongrong had indeed done wrong in this matter, so he had nothing to say.
Tong Wangrong's tears kept falling and she felt extremely wronged. She cried and said, "He .. How could that vulgar fiancée of his be worthy of him? I... "I am .." She couldn't bring herself to say such bold words in front of her father.
Why was Liu Zhimo so stubborn? What's so good about his fiancée? She really didn't understand.
Seeing that she still did not understand, the fire that had been burning in Mr. Tong's heart for a long time flared up once again. He gritted his teeth and said: "Whether you're worthy or not, that's still someone else's business. "You .." Mr. Tong stood up and walked two rounds before he finally said the words that were on the tip of his tongue, "If you know of any more shameless things, then you shouldn't look for his fiancee."
These words were a bit heavy, but if he didn't speak a bit more seriously, how could his daughter wake up?
After being scolded by Mr. Tong, Tong Wangrong cried even harder. She covered his mouth and started to cry.
She didn't know why she was poisoned by Liu Zhimo, but after seeing him do it a few times, she started to care about him.
She .. She didn't want to either!
"Master, why are you .. How could he say that to Rongrong? She's your daughter! " The moment Tong Furen walked to the door, she heard the words of the Mr. Tong and immediately became angry in her heart.
She walked in with large strides and scolded Mr. Tong.
"My good girl, don't cry, don't cry! "With mother here, let's see who dares to bully you." Tong Furen hugged Tong Wangrong, gently patted her back and softly consoled her.
Her precious daughter cried so much that her heart almost broke when she looked at her daughter.
Mr. Tong trembled as he pointed at Madam Tong. After a long while, he finally said, "A loving mother has many failed children, a loving mother has many failed children!"
His precious daughter was crying so bitterly, was he not heartbroken? However, if he didn't bring her back onto the right path, then she would be unable to do anything else.
Tong Furen ignored Mr. Tong, she embraced Tong Wangrong and advised in a low voice, "My son, such a petty man, let's not bother with him, your mother will definitely treat you as a better husband, okay?" She raised her head, looked at Mr. Tong, and said angrily, "Old master, that Liu Zhimo, he already bullied our daughter like this, why do you care about him, does he want to become an Elementary Scholar?"
She couldn't take it anymore.
Others might make things difficult for her daughter, but she had to make things difficult for that person as well.
They must be made to regret bullying her daughter.
Hearing that, the Mr. Tong shook his sleeves hard, and glared at Tong Furen: "Women's perspective ..." Liu Zhimo's knowledge was not bad. In this competition, there was a 90% chance that he would be able to become an Elementary Scholar, so the student he taught would definitely be able to become an Elementary Scholar.
Seeing that the exam was about to begin, how could he let go of Liu Zhimo at this time? He was not stupid.
Tong Furen had not experienced what Mr. Tong was thinking, she had only seen in front of her, her daughter had been bullied, and she wanted to bully him back.
"In your heart, is that student of yours more important than our daughter? "Huh?"
Her last tone of voice was so loud that even Mr. Tong trembled.
He let out a long breath, and looked at Tong Furen speechlessly. He was rejoicing in his heart, because even his son and daughter were not like her, if it was someone like her, he would definitely be worried.
"If you want Rong'er's reputation to be ruined, you can speak louder." He took a few sips of tea, then asked, "Rong'er, tell me, did you do something wrong?"
Tong Wan Rong raised her head from Tong Furen's embrace, looked at the Mr. Tong, and grunted.
After calming down, she thought about it carefully. She had done the wrong thing, she shouldn't have come out on her own. If she did, it would damage her reputation.
Yesterday, she was carried away by the unwillingness in her heart, and impulsively ran over to find Li Qingling. Forget about it, she was foolish enough to go over to Liu Zhimo's side and cause trouble.
He must hate her now, right?
"Then, what did you do wrong? Will you make the same mistake again next time? "
Tong Wan Rong did not dare to raise her head to look at Mr. Tong, for fear of seeing the disappointment in his eyes. She lowered her eyes and slowly told him everything that was on her mind, promising that she would never make this kind of mistake again.
Mr. Tong nodded in satisfaction, "Rong'er, you have to remember, no matter how much you like that man, you can't lower yourself to do those things, do you understand?" This would make the man look down on her.
"I know, Daddy." She obediently replied, "Father, I'm sorry for making you worry."
She didn't settle this matter properly and made her father lose face as well. She truly felt that she had let down her father.
He reached out and patted Tong Wangrong's shoulder as a smile appeared on Mr. Tong's face, "It's good that you've thought it through. Daddy is fine." He glanced at Tong Furen and stood up, "Father still has matters to attend to, so he will be leaving first."
"Daddy, take care."
"Madam, please send me off!" Mr. Tong walked to the door and turned his head to throw down these words.
Hearing that, Tong Furen stood up slowly, exhorted Tong Wangrong a little, and then followed Mr. Tong out.
After they walked out of Tong Wangrong's courtyard, the Mr. Tong indifferently said to Tong Furen, "Madam, if you're free, take Rong'er to attend some gatherings and see if there's any suitable young talents for Rong'er."
After he finished speaking, he was a little worried in his heart, afraid that Tong Furen's eyesight was not good, and would not be able to see a good young genius.
His wife's looks were good, but her mind was not very good. He really didn't have much hope in her.
Hearing that, Tong Furen immediately nodded her head, saying that she would choose a good husband for Rong'er, one that was even better than Liu Zhimo.
Saying that, she frowned and looked at Mr. Tong, "Old master, Liu Zhimo and his fiancee from the countryside are bullying our daughter, are we really going to let this go?"
She held the pearl in her hand, afraid that it would fall off. How could the precious pearl that she held in her mouth be bullied by others without seeking justice?
She thought about it and felt rather unwilling.
Mr. Tong could tell what Tong Furen was thinking with a glance. He shouted with a cold face, "Don't give me any ideas! If you don't want your daughter to lose her reputation, then stop. "
It looked like he needed his mother to help him take a look at Lady Han. Otherwise, he really wouldn't want her to cause any harm to herself.
Being yelled at by him, Tong Furen felt really wronged. Didn't she just want to help her daughter get justice? Was there a need to scold her like that?
"Did you remember what I said?"
"Remember, remember .." Tong Furen unwillingly nodded her head, she twisted the kerchief forcefully.
Mr. Tong really felt a headache.
He felt lucky to have such a lady, who had not caused any trouble in the family for so many years.
He sighed helplessly, and told her a little tiredly, "If you had taken a fancy to some young talent, then what would you do?" "Just go home and tell me, do not make a promise on your own, do you understand?"
He was truly afraid that she would be flattered by a few words from others. For a moment of ease, she decided to sell her daughter out.
Speaking till here, Tong Furen's emotions rose again. She smiled and nodded, telling Mr. Tong not to worry, she would settle this matter well.
Mr. Tong acknowledged, "Alright, Madam, please go back. I will go back to the academy."
"Alright, take care, old master."
At the junction, the two separated.
However, Mr. Tong did not directly go to the Academy. With a turn of his heel, he went to Old Lady Tong's courtyard, allowing her to look at Tong Furen properly. She should not do anything that would harm the Tong Family's reputation.
Old Mistress Tong also knew what kind of person her daughter-in-law was. Only when she agreed to Mr. Tong's words did Mr. Tong leave home in relief.
