Boss, He’s Becoming a Father [Arc 1] Chapter 3 : The Prodigal Son (5)
The arrival of the Zhang family interrupted the closed-door dispute of the Shao family.
There were knocks on the door again and again, and urgings outside the door. Shao Dabao felt like they were knocking on him, and it seemed that a few more knocks would knock him into pieces.
Shao Dabao stared at Shao Yu and saw that he really didn’t care about him. He was so anxious that he knelt down on the spot: “Dad, you can’t ignore me. I am your biological son who has been raised for twenty years!”
Shao Yu chuckled when he heard this and said, “My biological son who has been raised in vain for twenty years.”
Seeing that Shao Yu didn’t buy it, Shao Dabao looked at Shao Xiaocao again, but Shao Xiaocao turned his head directly.
Mrs. Wang, on the other hand, still maintained a united front with him. She looked at her husband and her daughter for a while, as if hoping that the two of them would let go.
“Head of the family, even if Dabao makes mistakes, he is still young…”
“Young people should take the right path.” Shao Yu replied.
He turned his head and glanced at Shao Xiaocao comfortingly, letting his daughter relax.
Shao Xiaocao’s heart warmed. Although her father didn’t say anything, her intuition told her that her father would never let her fall into a miserable situation today.
Shao Yu looked at Shao Dabao again and said, “Get up first and open the door. Do you really want everyone to see you kneeling?”
Shao Dabao struggled for a while, but in the end, his face prevailed. He got up from the ground and was encouraged by Shao Yu to take two steps toward the door and then stopped again.
“Why, you can’t open the door?” Shao Yu asked his son.
Shao Dabao couldn’t care less about Shao Yu’s strange aura at this time. His mind was filled with his situation after opening the door. He knew better than anyone who Zhang Meng was.
He was quite lucky. Although he had a lot of gambling debts, he still had a shop and a sister at home, so Zhang Meng didn’t do anything to him.
But Shao Dabao had seen with his own eyes how Zhang Meng dealt with people who were unable to repay their gambling debts.
In the backyard of the gambling house, Zhang Meng chopped off the man’s hands and feet without any hesitation. Shao Dabao still clearly remembers the violence in Zhang Meng’s eyes and the warm blood splashing on his face.
The hands that were chopped off are still hanging there. Anyone who doesn’t pay back the money will be taken to the backyard to pay homage to those hands.
It was precisely because he had seen this that Shao Dabao was particularly scared. When he thought of what he would face after opening the door, he felt that his wrists were already starting to hurt.
“Head of the family, Dabao is a piece of flesh that fell off my body after all…” Mrs. Wang cried and looked at her daughter aside.
But Shao Xiaocao was protected tightly by Shao Yu, and even because he was afraid that she would be soft-hearted, Shao Yu directly blocked Wang’s sight.
Shao Yu looked at Mr. Wang who was communicating with her in tears. He didn’t mean to be gentle at all. Instead, he said: “People are coming to the door. They will rush in sooner or later. It is better to open the door openly.”
Shao Dabao shook his head wildly, his eyes full of despair.
At this time, the banging on the door became louder and louder, and the door panel shook violently, as if it would collapse in the next second.
Shao Yu didn’t make any move, and just said: “If you don’t open the door now, they can still break in, and then they will break another door.”
Shao Dabao didn’t feel anything yet, but Mrs. Wang felt nervous.
For poor families, not to mention a door, even a piece of wood, may be an unbearable loss.
Wang couldn’t hold it back anymore, stepped forward and lowered the crossbar on the door.
A group of vicious servants rushed in immediately.
Behind them was Zhang Meng, who was surrounded by people but had an impatient look on his face.
As soon as Zhang Meng came in, he first glanced at Shao Xiaocao. Seeing that the bride’s eyes were red and swollen from crying, a trace of displeasure flashed in his eyes, but soon, his eyes fell on Shao Yu.
“What? Are you, the Shao family, behind closed doors, showing your face to me?” Zhang Meng asked with a sneer.
“The Shao family no longer marries daughters.” Shao Yu said straightforwardly.
Zhang Meng glared at Shao Yu fiercely, and then looked at Shao Xiaocao aside.
Shao Xiaocao grabbed his father’s clothes in fear, Shao Yu held his daughter
The child is behind him.
“Don’t marry?” Zhang Meng looked around, sneered, and said, “You said you won’t marry if you don’t want to marry. I’ve prepared so much, but you think it’s all a joke? I don’t want to lose face?”
Zhang Meng was dressed in wedding clothes, and the servants beside him were all dressed neatly. They had musical instruments in their hands, playing and singing. Even though it was his third marriage, he was still making a big fuss. , in the eyes of outsiders who don’t know what’s going on, Zhang Meng seems to value this future Yue family very much.
Shao Yu smiled when he heard this and said: “Firstly, there is no marriage certificate, secondly, there is no matchmaker, and thirdly, there is no betrothal gift. If you withdraw, you will withdraw. What’s the big deal?”
He took anotherr look at Zhang Meng’s wedding dress and said, “There are several dull spots on the cuffs of your dress. How many times has this wedding dress been worn?”
Zhang Meng paused after hearing this. What Shao Yu said was indeed true. He had worn this wedding dress three times.
Shao Yu then asked: “What is this darkness? Is it oil stains or blood stains?”
There was a dull dullness on the cuffs that had not been cleaned, and Zhang Meng himself could not tell what it was.
“As for these.” Shao Yu’s eyes fell on the servants and said: “The team you raise will probably be used for your grandson’s marriage. It’s really hard to talk about how to prepare.”
Zhang Meng’s wedding party was so big that many people followed him to watch the fun. Although Zhang Meng was fierce and hard to mess with, there were still many brave people who squeezed to the front row to watch the fun. When they heard Shao Yu’s words After saying these words, he immediately started laughing and even copied it to people outside.
Zhang Meng couldn’t help but glared at Shao Yu and cursed: “Nonsense!”
Shao Yu always had a smile on his face and said, “I’m sorry, I made a mistake. Every one of your daughters-in-law has been tortured to death by you. Where will the future generations come from?”
“Damn it, you dare to curse me?” When Zhang Meng heard this, he rushed up immediately, raised his fist and was about to hit Shao Yu.
Shao Yu could hide, but he didn’t.
He just pulled Shao Dabao, who was stunned beside him, to block him in front of him.
“Ouch!” Shao Dabao screamed. Zhang Meng’s punch was so hard that Shao Dabao felt like his bones were about to be broken apart.
Wang immediately felt distressed and gave Shao Yu a reproachful look.
“You said I have no descendants, but I still have to marry your daughter today!” Zhang Meng said fiercely. He didn’t intend to talk nonsense with Shao Yu. He raised his hand and planned to let someone come to snatch the bride.
