Chapter 2596 Who Is My Father?

Yun Dai was stunned for a moment.

The young boy's expression was particularly serious, and his own figure was reflected in his black and white eyes.

Yun Dai bent down and asked softly: "Brother Cheng, why do you suddenly ask about this?"

"I want to know. My brothers all have fathers, why don't I." Brother Cheng lowered his head, "Why do my mother and I have the same surname?"

Yun Dai asked: "Have you asked your mother?"

"I asked. But my mother always said that my father is dead."

"anything else?"

"Mom refused to say anything else." Brother Cheng felt aggrieved, "Why doesn't everyone want to tell me who my father is? I really want to know."

He pulled Yun Dai's sleeve: "My aunt is close to my mother, so she must know. Aunt tell me, okay?"

Yun Dai didn't know how to speak.

Brother Cheng's father is King Lu. He was imprisoned for participating in King Cheng's rebellion. Mingxuan poisoned King Lu with her own hands for the sake of the entire Hou Mansion and for the sake of righteousness.

His own mother killed his own father.

Most people can't accept it, let alone a child.

What's more, King Lu was still branded as a rebel.

Mingxuan and the elders of the Hou Mansion kept it secret from him for his own good.

But children will eventually grow up.

At Brother Cheng's age, seeing that all the children in the Hou Mansion have fathers, he will naturally be curious and ask questions.

Back then, Yun Dai had warned Ming Xuan that this matter would definitely be a big problem for her children when they grow up.

This kind of thing can be hidden for a while, but not forever.

He will find out eventually.

Looking at the child's innocent eyes, Yun Dai smiled and said, "Since your mother didn't tell you, there must be some difficulty. When the right opportunity comes in the future, she will tell you."

Brother Cheng seems to understand.

"Okay, let's go back. Ask your brothers for a bowl of sour plum soup."

"Yes. Auntie, I'm leaving." Brother Cheng bowed obediently, turned around and walked back. When he walked into the house, he didn't see his brothers, but he saw his mother.

"Mom," Brother Cheng walked over.

Mingxuan said: "Why don't you go with your brothers? Go to school and don't run around."

Brother Cheng agreed, but he hesitated and whispered: "Mom, I just met my aunt. I asked her that question, but my aunt didn't answer me either."

Mingxuan frowned: "What did you ask?"

"I asked my aunt who my father was, but she didn't tell me."

"Who asked you to ask such a question?" Mingxuan's face suddenly darkened, and she raised her hand and slapped Brother Cheng.

Brother Cheng, who had never been beaten before, pursed his lips and started crying.

Xiao Wanwan came over following the cry, put Brother Cheng into her arms, frowned and said, "Why do you want me to beat this child? Cheng'er doesn't cry anymore. Second aunt will wipe it for you."

Mingxuan looked sullen, grabbed Brother Cheng's arm, pulled him over, and said sternly: "Come back to the house with me!"

Brother Cheng was so frightened that he cried.

Xiao Wanwan was anxious: "Auntie, what are you doing? Look, my brother's face has turned pale with fear."

Mingxuan ignored her, grabbed Brother Cheng's arm and pulled him away.

Brother Cheng cried loudly, but did not dare to resist. He couldn't keep up with Mingxuan's pace, and he staggered as he was dragged.

Xiao Wanwan was anxious and distressed. She knew she couldn't defeat this aunt, so she quickly turned around to find someone.

Tian was ill and Ming Xiuwen was not at home. Xiao Guanwan did not dare to alarm her mother-in-law, knowing that her elder brother could calm her down, so she went to her yard.
