The Blessed

In the inner room, the old lady was sitting on the bed, her eyes, as usual, just like being soaked in poison, stared at Ling Chenglong since he came in. Ling Chenglong thought that he had already been accustomed to her maliciousness, but he didn’t know until now, he would never get used to it, because that was his mother.

“Mom.”

Standing in front of her, fists tightly clenched, Ling Chenglong bowed his head, and called her with such a reluctant tone. If forgetting about the blood relationship, only the paper, he was not her son now, so it was reasonable even if he didn’t call her mom. But after all, he was not that kind of unfilial son, and he was not so heartless.

“Hmm, sit.”

The old lady’s face brightened a little as she saw that his son still performed like a pushover, and her fear vanished. As long as he remained her son, she had plenty of ways to let him give the money.

Ling Chenglong sat down on one side silently, and Old Zhou who had been serving behind him looked up at the arrogant old woman, and then moved behind Ling Chenglong without saying anything, the old lady seemed to be brewing something and did not speak, a pair of malicious eyes sizing Ling Chenglong up and down. Seeing that he was wearing silks and brocades, and looked much stronger than before, she felt quite imbalanced in the heart again. It was like, the better he lived after moving out, the harder he slapped her in the face, and the angrier she felt.

But as parents, who wouldn’t wish their kids could live a good life? This old lady was a limited edition of those incredibly unbelievable people.

“Mom.”

At this time, Ling Chenghua came in with a bright smile and hugged the old lady, then the old lady instantly beamed with smiles, eyes glowing with affection. Her attitude towards the brother and sister was like up in heaven and down on earth. Even Old Zhou couldn’t take it. But Ling Chenglong still stayed poised, keeping silent.

“I heard you bought all the wasteland in Qingyang County at one go? And even paid to build a house for your wife’s younger sister?”

Pulling her daughter to sit by her side, the old lady eyes suddenly shot at Ling Chenglong fiercely.

“Jingxuan bought the land for her, and they built it with their own money.”

Ling Chenglong, like a machine, answered her question mechanically. As long as the old lady opened her mouth, he knew their purpose–money.

“Who are you trying to fool? She is a widow whose man has died long ago and has two sons to raise. Where did she get the money to build the house? And the wasteland. You also grew up in this village. Before moving out, you could be called a quite experienced farmer, don’t you know you can never grow out things on those wasteland? That’s over fifty thousand mu! Even if you bought it at the price of the homestead, that’s at least fifty thousand taels of silver! How could you waste money like that?”

That’s fifty thousand taels! Holy sh*t! Why not offer it to her? She is his mother! Why waste on those barren land? The more she thought about it, the angrier. Since Lady Jiang and her daughter’s thing last time, their whole family lived in horror. And only until they made sure that Ling Jingxuan was just threatening then, they felt relieved. Meanwhile, they hated Ling Jingxuan more. Heaven knows how she hated this son when she heard that Ling Jingxuan had spent thousands of taels of silver to buy those wasteland! So, when her daughter came to talk about asking Ling Chenglong to offer some money for her dowries, she had made up her mind. After quite a few days, they finally got to know his daily routines. And today, taking advantage that the old man went to visit a friend, she asked Ling Jingxiao to call him over.

Hearing what she said, Old Zhou could not help feeling full of contempt. Even if they wasted money, they didn’t waste yours! Why now? Besides, their Master Xuan would never do a losing business!

“It’s Jingxuan who earned the money, and it’s also he who bought the land, he said he can grow something out of it.”

Ling Chenglong seemed to answer her, in fact, deep in the heart he had already been thoroughly desperate about those people, so he pushed all things onto his son. Yeah, he was honest, but not stupid. He knew they were all afraid of Jingxuan.

“So you bought it since that son of a b*tch said it? You believe him when he says he can grow things out of it? Are you a man or not? Figure it out. You’re the master of the house. When is it that son of a b*tch’s turn to call the shots? Useless thing! Before you moved out, you went against your parents for your wife. And after you moved, you even let that bastard climb over your head! What is wrong with you?”

His words instantly lit the old woman up. Ling Jingxuan! The most regretful thing for her whole life was that she hadn’t insisted killing him five years ago!

“If my Jingxuan is son of a b*tch, what are you? Mom, while I still call you that, can you accumulate some merits for yourself? Jingxuan has earned the money with his hard work, so that’s his own thing whatever he’d like to spend on. Now Shengrui is back. You know what, actually Jinhua and I, and Jingpeng and Jinghan, we are all just lodging with him now. Some day, if he is unhappy, he could throw all us out. So don’t call me master of that house, because I am not!”

Hearing that she kept calling his precious son son of a b*tch, Ling Chenglong finally broke out. Jingxuan has paid the price for his wrong doing that year. Why couldn’t they still let it go? Besides, however slutty his Jingxuan was, he would never have intercourse with someone under the broad daylight! What right did they have to say that about his son? And who was the real b*tch?…
