Chapter 436 Tiger Mom and Cat Dad
Fang Yiai knelt straight, looking ahead, without saying a word, and responded to his mother's scolding without hearing it.
With a long period of prejudice, Fang Yiai has become accustomed to his mother's verbal violence.
Lu's scolding was endless, but Fang Yiai was thinking about something else. When did it start? He could no longer remember it. It seemed that in his impression, his mother had never given him a good face.
The child his mother likes is the eldest brother, Fang Yizhi, and Fang Yiai is also very clear in her heart. In fact, he is only two years apart from his elder brother. He has been stronger than his peers since he was a child, and there is no difference between the two of them in appearance. But there is no way to be biased, and he doesn't know why he is so unfavorable.
When he was a child, his husband was hired at home. The two brothers attended class together. Fang Yiai was not stupid, and he was also memorized. Fang Yiai was not good at expressing himself. But he was not good at expressing himself. Even if he memorized it, he would not show off in front of his father and mother like his elder brother Fang Yizhi. When he was eight years old, he once memorized the "Book of Filial Piety" in front of his mother. The mother was moved to tears. Xiao Fang Yiai said that he could recite it. However, he was scolded by his mother coldly. You could recite it. Why didn't you recite it just now? You just carved it when you saw your elder brother carving it. It can be seen that you are a child without filial piety and sensationalism!
Since then, Fang Yiai has never memorized it again. Even if he memorized it, he pretended not to know how to memorize it.
After he was ten years old, he entered adolescence. Fang Yiai's figure rose rapidly, with a big and round waist, and became the number one thug in the "second-generation official" circle of Chang'an City. When fighting alone and not using a bad move, even the Cheng brothers were not his opponent. Lu looked down on him even more, thinking that Fang Yiai was completely helpless, and he couldn't read well, and he even fought. In the future, he would not be able to become a warrior.
Warrior?
In the eyes of women from the Lu family of Fanyang, they are no different from animals. What big things can a martial artist achieve? Since ancient times, how can a martial artist be the world? A martial artist can conquer the world, but it is just a wedding dress for others. Those who govern the world are all civil officials.
Lu's family became increasingly disappointed with Fang Yiai, and often criticized and even ridiculed him. He often used the example of the eldest son Fang Yi's example to highlight how inadequate Fang Yiai was.
Perhaps it was because he loved his son and wanted his son to repent. But Lu's approach was obviously wrong, at least for Fang Yiai, it did not work. Since Lu took Fang Yi and belittled him, Fang Yiai has never read a book again. Didn't you say I am a martial artist? Then I'll be a martial artist!
The rebellion of adolescence made Fang Yiai more and more opposing to his mother, Lu. But he was still a filial son in his heart. His mother could look down on him, discriminate against him, and derogatoryly, but he would never complain about his mother.
He is used to not speaking or defending. If you like to scold, you scold, I don’t speak or speak, and you always get tired of scolding.
The same is true today. Lu beat and scolded for a while, and finally got tired. With the help of the maid, she went back to the room to rest. She asked Fang Yiai to kneel until the next day, and she woke up and came to check.
Fang Yiai didn't say anything, and knelt even more straight.
Today's beating may have reached the limit of physical strength for Qin Huaidao, but it is nothing to him. If you do it again, he can withstand it.
Fang Xuanling hid in the corridor and watched his wife walk away before sneaking back quietly.
Fang Yiai heard the footsteps and knew that it was his father who came, but he didn't move. He knew that although his father was a famous left prime minister all over the world, he could not be a family. He didn't expect it, nor did he know that he could not count on it.
"well……"
Fang Xuanling closed the door of the ancestral hall, sighed, picked up a cushion, and knelt beside Fang Yiai. Fang Yiai looked at his father, stuttered for a moment, and said, "Dad, have you been punished by your mother to kneel down?"
"..." Fang Xuanling's face turned green and she said angrily: "Bastard, what are you saying? Even if I am afraid of your mother, I will not be punished by her to kneel down? I am your father!"
"Oh." Fang Yiai stopped talking and looked ahead again. It seemed like she was saying, Dad, don't explain, I believe it.
Fang Xuanling was so angry that his beard was trembling, but when he thought that his child had just been violently scolded by his mother, he was too much to scold him. He suppressed his anger and said, "You were born two years later than your elder brother and cannot inherit my title. You are unwilling to study, and even if you are a filial and honest person in the future, it will be difficult. What are your plans?"
"Mom said I am a martial artist, I think I'm right, I want to join the army."
"It's not impossible to join the army, but if you join the army, your mother."
Fang Yiai smiled and said, "Dad, my mother doesn't like me at all. My elder brother is her good son. My elder brother is willing to study and learn. A few days ago, I heard people's discussions and said that my elder brother wanted to participate in the spring exam and prove his ability. My mother also supported her and planned to send him back to her hometown and ask her uncle to teach him. My elder brother will definitely be in high school. At that time, my mother will not take care of what I am like."
"Your mother...ah." Fang Xuanling sighed again and said, "Your uncle, the Louvre was expelled from Chang'an by His Majesty. His knowledge is good, but I do not recognize his character. He is old-fashioned and mean, and your mother has some shadow. But no matter what, she is your mother, and you cannot have resentment towards her."
"You are my son, I, as a father, have to contribute some effort to you. Son, Dad will give you an idea, are you willing to listen?"
Everyone in the world said that "Fang's plan and Du Duan" was the first-class master of Fang Xuanling's plan and identifying people, but hesitated to make decisions. At this moment, he could not change it, and he still gave the decision to Fang Yiai.
Fang Yiai looked at Fang Xuanling and his eyes shaking for a moment. This was the first time Fang Xuanling gave him an idea, which was nothing in the past. After hesitating for a moment, Fang Yiai said: "Dad, you said."
"You should stop joining the army, and you can't even study. Why not, I will write a letter, and you will take you to see Li Mu tomorrow and ask him to arrange an errand in the Office of Internal Affairs. He has the right to appoint officials of the sixth rank or below. He can give me a face, and he must be a sixth rank official. That's all that dad can help you. The future path depends on yourself."
"Interior Affairs Office?" Fang Yiai frowned and said, "Dad, I just finished fighting with him today, why would he help me? Besides, yesterday I heard people's discussion that his position as the Chief Minister of the Interior Affairs Office has been removed by His Majesty. He is now a white man."
Fang Xuanling smiled and said, "My son, you underestimate Li Mu too much. How can you guess his thoughts with the heart of a child? Although Li Mu is as old as you, he is different from you. How many things did he do in Chang'an in a few months? Nothing is possible for you to do. The Imperial Heaven Supervisor said that he was a Su Hui person, and the public talked about him as an exiled immortal who demoted to the mortal world. In the past, I only thought it was a joke. But when the Ministry of Internal Affairs came out, I was completely convinced by my father..."
Be convinced?
Fang Yiai was shocked. As the left prime minister of the Tang Dynasty, Fang Xuanling was afraid of his inner self, but had a high vision. There were very few people who called him convinced. Fang Yiai knew only two and a half. One was Du Ruhui, the other was Wei Zheng, and the other was Cheng Yaojin, because he was a scoundrel. It is said that he had shaved Fang Xuanling's beard while drunk.
Apart from these two and a half, Li Mu is the fourth one, and he is so young, how is this possible?
Fang Xuanling continued, "...As for Your Majesty's removal from his post, it's not true. The affairs of the Ministry of Internal Affairs will not be done without Li Mu. Now it's okay these days because it's time for the New Year and there are fewer things. When the New Year and there are too many things, Your Majesty will let Li Mu go back. Son, you can't underestimate Li Mu. He is now in charge of the Ministry of Internal Affairs and the Ministry of Works, and is very important in the court. The Tang Dynasty official system, the left and right servants and she each have three ministries. He is in the two ministries, and he is only a little different from your father and me."
"Yeah." Fang Yiai nodded and said, "But if I fight with him, he may not be willing to help me."
"Don't worry, he is not a stingy person. Besides, he still has something to do with your father. I will write a letter to him, which is to give him a handle, and he will understand what I mean."
Fang Yiai just refused to study, not a fool. When she heard this, she hurriedly said, "Dad, I heard that Li Mu's character is not very good. What if he threatens you with this in the future?"
"Haha..." Fang Xuanling laughed: "Son, you only see your father obeying your mother in everything at home, like a coward. But you forgot that your father is the left prime minister of the Tang Dynasty. If Li Mu wants to bully me, he has to think twice. Besides, even if he makes the matter public, so what? In front of His Majesty, your father has not had any feelings for you? Keep your heart in your stomach, and your father says it's okay, it's okay!"
Fang Yiai was stunned. This was the first time he saw Fang Xuanling, who spoke so confidently and confidently. Suddenly, as if he had a sense of courage to inject into his body, Fang Yiai became confident, focused on it and said, "Thank you, dad!"
Fang Xuanling smiled, patted Fang Yiai's shoulder, and said, "Okay, dad, go write a letter, you kneel down here, I will deal with your mother tomorrow, come to the study to get it."
“…”
Fang Yiai had just plucked up his courage, and there was a sign of collapse again. No one dared to threaten the left prime minister of the Tang Dynasty. Why can't you let your son down?
Thinking of this, my mother is still amazing!
...
Last night, I cleaned Li Siwen for half a night and made Li Siwen feel confused. At dawn, I couldn't stand it. I didn't fall asleep or fainted.
The same was true for Li Mu. The two brothers fell on the same bed. The next day, Li Mu woke up first, checked his clothes neatly, let out a long sigh, slipped back to the room, squeezed into the quilt and hugged Li Zhien and slept in a lazy sleep.
