Chapter 8: beggar father (8)
The banquet at Cao Kun's house was very lively. The Cao mansion was Wu's former residence. Lin Han glanced at Wu Qun nervously, only to see his father's face with a faint smile on his face, covered with gold-rimmed glasses. his look.
"Father?" Lin Han called out softly, looking at Wu Qun who was distracted.
"Don't worry, the show hasn't started yet." Wu Qun glanced casually, Li Hong was already seated, Yan Hai was also seated, and people from the Metropolitan Police Department were also moving around.
"Dad, do you think that woman can recognize me?" Lin Han was a little nervous, but also looking forward to it.
Wu Qun sighed. He has been paying attention to the child's physical and mental health all these years, but he can't give him a complete home. It's not that there is no woman to marry him, but that he only wants to raise the child, and does not want to be taken care of by others. .
"Son, she gave birth to you." Wu Qun explained a fact he thought. Over the years, he didn't deliberately instill in Lin Han the matter of alienating their mother and son, but he was impartial and impartial. After all, no matter how young a child is, he has his own emotions.
"But she also abandoned me. He has a new son now." Lin Han raised his eyebrows and smiled. When he was kicked out, he was already quite young.
The lively Full Moon Banquet began during the conversation between the father and son. When Cao Kun appeared in front of the guests with Dai Liniang in his arms, Wu Qun and Lin Han both looked calm.
"Congratulations to Mr. Cao on his happy son."
After all, he is a rich man in the South River, and there are still many people who are flattering.
When people were talking about the same thing, when the whole banquet was the most lively, Wu Qun straightened his clothes, glanced at Lin Han and nodded.
"Young Master Cao, Miss Dai, are you satisfied with my Wu family's house in the past few years?" Wu Qun brought Lin Han forward.
"No, this distinguished guest..." Butler Kang hurriedly stepped forward to stop Wu Qun and his son who were walking forward.
"Butler Kang, it's been a long time, how are you doing?" Wu Qun said with a smile as he looked at the mellow butler.
"Young, Master? You, you, you..." Isn't he dead? The butler added in his heart, but his face changed instantly, his forehead was covered in cold sweat, and he was still alive.
"Yo, it seems that Steward Kang still remembers me, the only survivor of the Wu family. Thank you so much." Wu Qun smiled politely.
"Steward Kang, those who don't have an invitation are not considered as guests of my Cao Mansion, see off guests." Dai Liniang's face was extremely ugly, and Wu Qun, who looked like a dog, was not pleasing to the eye.
"This guest, is there any misunderstanding? Today is my son's big day. All the people here are guests. You might as well sit down and have a couple of drinks." Although Cao Kun was not happy, he was a rich man after all. Do one that makes people speechless.
"Misunderstanding? Cao Kun, you used the Wu family as a betrothal gift for my wife in order to fall in love with her. Why did you forget it? Without the wealth of my Wu family, you probably wouldn't be able to become the richest man in Nanhe, right?" Wu Qun He spoke lightly about the past, and there was no fierce expression on his face.
"Mrs. Cao still remembers my son who was abandoned by you. I'm sorry to disappoint you. I'm still alive. I wonder if my wife has missed me over the years." .
"Nonsense, when my wife came back from studying in country F, she was still unmarried. How could she have a son as old as you." The maid next to Dai Liniang spoke for her master.
But the people present here are not the dignitaries in this city or the people who are related to the Cao family. Back then, in order to be with Dai Liniang, Cao Kun kept trying to whiten Dai Liniang's identity. To this end, he did not hesitate to fight, and many people knew at that time. To this end, the detectives of the Metropolitan Police Department have been dispatched for an unknown amount. Unfortunately, the evidence is not complete and there is no way to convict him. Cao Kun just made a routine question and let him go.
The guests in the whole garden began to discuss, and some ladies who knew the past began to chew their tongues again.
Although the world is not so harsh on women, in general, women like Dai Liniang are still unpopular. Especially at large banquets, don't look at each person's status, but isn't it human nature to gossip?
"This young master, you have identified the wrong person..." Dai Liniang dryly wanted to explain, after all, being unmasked in public made her very embarrassed. She never imagined that the two of them were still alive, so she couldn't die far away, and let her be the wife of the Cao family with peace of mind.
"It doesn't matter if you don't admit it, I just assumed that my mother died that summer." Lin Han lowered his eyes and looked injured, making the ladies present feel pity.
"I said Mrs. Cao, it's nothing new in today's world to abandon a husband and a child and marry a second time. You are now living a happy life, so what if you recognize this eldest son? Young Master Cao can marry a woman who is married for the second time. Can you accept an ex-husband's son, don't you think, Mrs. Li?"
"Yeah, after all, when Young Master Cao was for you, he moved the entire Wu family. This matter was known to everyone back then. You **** doesn't care about anything else. You should feel sorry for your own flesh and blood, right?" Mrs. Li Echoing the words of the lady just now, she looked at Dai Liniang with disdain.
"You two are talking nonsense there." Dai Liniang's maid was anxious. Dai Liniang held the child with a look of grievance, tears in her eyes, and she kept staring at Cao Kun.
"Mrs. Li, do you believe the hearsay of Mrs. He?" Cao Kun wiped away Dai Liniang's tears and stared sharply at the two ladies.
"Hearsay? Young Master Cao, why do you keep covering up if you kill someone? Besides, isn't the Wu family dead? After all, the witnesses and physical evidence should be complete. I pulled out my hair because of this." Yan Hai walked forward with a glass of red wine and patted Cao Kun's shoulder with a smile.
"Young Master Cao, whether it's true love between you and Miss Dai, or an elopement, when will you owe me to the Wu family?" Wu Qun looked at Dai Liniang and Cao Kun without a smile.
"Father, what nonsense are you talking about with your dog and man, give it to this pair..." Just hand it over to the inspector of the Metropolitan Police Department. Lin Han frowned, he didn't want to see these two people standing in the yard of Wu's house at all, but he didn't say anything after that.
"Son, don't be in a hurry. Animals are animals because they have no humanity." Wu Qun calmly patted Lin Han on the shoulder, interrupting what Lin Han said afterward.
"Come on, see off." Cao Kun forced to see off with a dark face.
"Young Master Cao, I'm afraid this is inappropriate." Li Hong looked at Wu Qun and pouted, stood up and said something.
The guards of the Cao Mansion quickly surrounded Wu Qun and his son.
Wu Qun brushed his sleeves, then pulled out the chair and sat down.
"Not yet?" Dai Liniang also fiercely watched Wu Qun and the two give orders.
"Yo, Liniang hasn't seen you for so many years, it's really majestic." Wu Qun chuckled lightly, rubbing the jade finger on his thumb and looking at the two people who were a little exasperated.
"Wu Qun, shut up for me." Dai Liniang shouted at Wu Qun angrily.
