C1798 An Unexpected Action
Although his elder brother didn't like him, he still made things difficult for him. However, he was still his elder brother, and he had a deep relationship with his brother.
However, Meng Ran was just a junior, and this was the first time he had come to the Meng Family to face him. His big uncle actually dared to say such disobedient words!
How could Meng Changan not be angry?
Soong Shuling saw that her husband's complexion was ashen and the veins on his face seemed to be throbbing. She could not help but hurriedly pull his large hand and say in a worried voice,
"Chang'an, don't be angry first. Listen to my explanation. Ran, he..."
"You!?"
Meng Changzhi was so angry that his whole body was trembling. He raised his hand and was about to slap Meng Ran, but at this moment, a violent coughing sound was heard.
"Stop!"
"This voice, could it be father!?" Meng Changzhi's expression changed.
Everyone from the Meng Family quickly turned around to look, only to see a hunchbacked old man with sparse hair and a skinny body supported by Meng Shiqing. He was wearing a cotton shirt and holding a walking stick. He walked out of the door of the Meng Family with trembling steps.
Meng Changzhi quickly ran up and wanted to support his father. "Dad! You are so sick. Didn't the doctor ask you to get off the bed? Why are you still..."
However, before he could finish his words, he saw the old man throw away the walking stick with one hand. He raised his wrinkled and withered palm and actually slapped his own son in front of everyone!
Slap!
The clear sound of a slap echoed in front of the Meng Family's Ancestral Mansion's door.
Meng Ran's big uncle, second uncle, little aunt, and the rest of the people were all stunned.
Meng Changzhi stood there and asked in a daze: "Dad, you... you... why did you hit me?"
"Bastard! Get back!"
The old man coughed and cursed. With Meng Shiqing's help, he walked straight to Meng Ran.
Looking at his grandson, who was taller than him, the old man seemed to want to reach out his hand and caress Meng Ran's cheek.
Meng Ran frowned and instinctively took a step back. He looked at the old man in confusion.
"Third Brother's son... has grown up. Good... really good. It's good to be young. Let's go. Let's go into the house with grandpa."
The old man tightly grabbed Meng Ran's arm, wanting to pull him away. However, Meng Ran did not move like a mountain, not a single step.
If Meng Ran didn't want to leave, not to mention this old man, even a Martial Arts Legend wouldn't be able to move him by half a step!
Meng Ran's gaze intentionally or unintentionally glanced at his parents. Looking at the anticipation in Soong Shuling's eyes, Meng Ran couldn't help but soften his heart.
Sigh...
He sighed silently and finally gave up resisting. He allowed this old man, who was in his last years, to drag him into the ancestral mansion.
Meng Changzhi stood rooted to the spot, staring blankly at the grandfather and grandson duo walking past him. His heart was burning with jealousy.
Meng Changan sighed as well. Obviously, he understood what his father was doing.
Looks like my father wants to compensate Ran for what he did to me. Back then, sigh...
"Let's come in together."
Meng Changan and his wife said to Su Fangfei and Fang Rubing. Then, without caring about the jealous gazes of the crowd, they casually stepped into the Meng Family's mansion.
To be able to make the old man do this, he was afraid that the only one who could make the old man do this was the third son that he doted on the most. For this son, the old man even slapped his eldest son in public.
The relatives of the Meng Family couldn't help but sigh. No matter how stiff the conflict between father and son was, they were still father and son.
It seemed like the day of Meng Changan's return to the Meng Family was going to change...
