Riding the Pheonix Chapter 127: Go home

"Fourth Young Master!" The servants of the Ming family saw Ming Sheng coming out of the Yamen and hurriedly greeted him.

After three days, Ming Sheng returned to the human world as if he had been separated from another world.

He is an important witness and has been detained in the Yamen for the past few days. Although the treatment is not bad, the feeling of losing freedom is really uncomfortable.

"Brother Cha." Ming Sheng quickly stopped the official who was escorting him out, "I don't know my father..."

The official knew that his superiors valued him, so he was kind to him: "Your Majesty ordered you and your son to go home. Your father will be out soon. Just wait here."

"Thank you, Brother Cha." Ming Sheng bowed.

After waiting for a while, I saw Master Mingsi being escorted out as expected.

"Dad!"

The Fourth Master looks a bit more haggard than Ming Sheng, but he is still in good spirits.

He nodded: "Go back first."

The father and son got into the car and the carriage drove towards Ming's house.

"Dad!" On the carriage, father and son faced each other, but Ming Sheng hesitated to speak.

He had many things to ask the fourth master, but their relationship between father and son was not close, so he couldn't ask him for a while.

"Just ask whatever you want to ask. You may not have the chance in the future." The fourth master's attitude is very different from the past. I don't know if it is because of this incident that he has figured out a lot.

Ming Sheng opened his mouth, closed his eyes, and finally said the words: "My father and mother were arguing that day, and I heard it..."

The Fourth Master was startled.

"Dad, you and your third aunt are really..."

"That's all in the past." The Fourth Master interrupted him.

"But, dad, you came out to testify." Mingsheng lowered his voice, with complicated emotions, "Is it... for the third aunt?"

Unexpectedly, Ming Sheng would ask him such a question directly, and the Fourth Master didn't know how to answer it.

My heart turned over and over again for a long time, and he said: "This matter is not easy to say to you juniors. But since you have doubts in your heart, if you don't make it clear to your father, I'm afraid you will have trouble in your life. Sheng'er, you I know it’s true, your third aunt and I met earlier, but by some mistake, your third uncle told you first. Later, we each got married, and the matter just passed..."

"After I got married to your mother and soon after having you, dad didn't think about it anymore. No matter what happened before, we were already married separately and we were uncles and sisters-in-law. Why are we still thinking about old things? It's just dad's temper. No, you treated your mother so negligently and didn’t care about her feelings..."

At this point, the fourth master lowered his gaze.

Not knowing what he thought of, he sighed and continued: "What happened later made me feel guilty for my father. For ten years, I suffered day and night. It was me who couldn't forgive your third aunt, knowing that she was humiliated but standing by and watching. I It's for her, but not just for her, Sheng'er, do you understand?"

Ming Sheng did not know the inside story of what happened to Mrs. Ming San, but he was smart and keen and vaguely guessed that there was something behind it, and it was not just as simple as being molested by Uncle Six.

At this time, his father treated him heartily. He felt relieved and said in a low voice: "Dad is doing this for the sake of conscience and morality."

Ming Sheng was not the only one who was pleased. The Fourth Master felt relieved when he heard this and said softly: "Dad is not as noble as you said. I just don't want to live with self-blame and guilt for the rest of my life. You can't help yourself when it comes to love. , I have already felt sorry for your mother, and I don’t want to feel sorry for you again. Dad has been cowardly and incompetent his whole life and cannot set a good example for you, but at least he cannot bring shame to you..."

"Dad!" Mingsheng's eyes turned red.

The fourth master patted him on the shoulder: "It's dad's fault. I always thought that disciplining you harshly would be good for you, but I ignored other things. I never knew your mother was so resentful of me. Think about it carefully. , the fact is that I really can’t help her. It’s just that I can’t make up for this guilt..."

After these few days of turmoil, Ming Sheng also figured out a lot of things and said softly: "No wonder dad, as you said, you can't help yourself when it comes to love..."

The heartbeat of my youth is the white moonlight of my life. He has tried his best to be other people's husband and father, but fate has caused others to suffer misfortune, and he will never be able to let go of Mrs. Mingsan's misfortune.

"I only thought about my mother's feelings before, but not my father's. I'm sorry..."

Seeing Ming Sheng's remorse, the fourth master felt particularly guilty: "Dad did not do well, and you all suffered."

……

The father and son returned home and first went to see Mrs. Ming.

The old lady was particularly surprised when she saw them. She managed to say a few words and told them to go back and rest quickly.

The two returned to the west courtyard, and the fourth lady had prepared clothes, food and water.

Bathing first and then eating, the father and son finally had a peaceful meal.

Mingsheng looked at Mingxiang who was staring at him eagerly, smiled and touched her head: "Fourth brother said it was okay, does Axiang believe it now?"

Mingxiang nodded, grabbed his sleeve and asked: "Is fourth brother injured? I heard that the torture of those officers was very severe..."

"Don't worry, I'm not a prisoner." Ming Sheng said softly, "Master Jiang treated us very politely. He only stayed in the Yamen to testify. Now that the case has been clarified, he released us. You see, Fourth Brother Very good, no injuries at all. But the food in the Yamen is not delicious, I haven’t had a good meal these days."

Ming Xiang was amused by him and asked: "Will fourth brother still eat?"

Ming Sheng touched his stomach and said, "I won't eat anymore~IndoMTL.com~ It's too full to eat all at once and it won't be easy to digest. Let's save it for tomorrow and eat slowly."

"Yes." Mingxiang suddenly took a step forward, hugged Mingsheng's arm, and rested his head on his shoulder, "Fourth brother scared me. These days, I'm so afraid of you getting beaten. Mom is too. , too worried to sleep..."

Ming Sheng reassured with a smile: "Isn't this okay? Don't worry, it will all pass."

"Yes." Mingxiang showed a bright smile.

The fourth master and fourth lady in the main room were in another different situation.

The couple had had a big quarrel before and had been separated for a long time. The fourth wife didn't know what to say for a while. After serving the fourth master's meal, the two of them were a little embarrassed.

After a while, the fourth master spoke first: "I've been exhausted these past few days. Let's take a rest early."

"Hmm..." The fourth lady agreed and went to make the bed herself.

The couple lay down, but no one could sleep.

The fourth lady tossed and turned, full of thoughts, when she suddenly heard a voice from beside her: "Are you asleep?"

She woke up with a start and asked quickly: "Master, do you want some water?"

Just as he was about to stand up, the Fourth Master held his hand: "Don't be busy, I just...have something to say to you."

After suffering these days, the Fourth Madam had already regretted it. Seeing him being a bit groveling, she softened her heart and said, "Master, if you have anything to say, please tell me."

The Fourth Master sighed softly and said, "It was my fault that day." After a pause, he added, "It's been my fault all these years. I always thought that he would be a good husband if he didn't act like the Sixth Lao. But I never thought that a family needs more affection. I will try my best to change my temper in the future and never treat you like that again."

After hearing no sound for a long time, he touched it and found that the fourth lady had tears streaming down her face.
