Chapter 4: Jiahe, Long Time No See (Revised)
Tang Man’s…
Tang Man’s mother, Madam Yang, was extremely beautiful, a rare beauty. Since childhood, she was the flower of the alley, famous for her beauty. Who didn’t say that the Yang family’s daughter was good-looking? When she was in college, she was even more of a celebrity, but she was spoiled by her parents and developed a naive personality.
The naivety here did not mean that Yang Qing was a silly sweetheart who knew nothing.
It was that this woman simply pursued happiness. Whoever treated her well, she would go with them. She was so innocent that it was difficult to resist temptation. She also liked new things and got tired of old ones, enjoying all things fresh, exciting, and passionate.
Sometimes Tang Man thought that her current personality was not unrelated to Madam Yang.
Back then, Old Tang was also a young and promising, handsome young man. He secretly fought with quite a few men before Madam Yang broke up with her boyfriend at the time. Soon after, they got married because of pregnancy. It can be said that his path to getting the beauty was very difficult, no less than the journey of Tang Seng to get the scriptures from the West.
But a dog can’t change its habit of eating feces. At that time, Old Tang was a talented youth and the heir of the Tang family. At a business dinner party, he couldn’t resist the skirts and lipstick marks of women and had an affair, keeping a mistress outside like a wealthy son.
He thought he could be like other men, with the colorful flags flying outside while the red flag never fell at home.
Later, the mistress was not content with being kept in a golden house, so she made a scene at the door. Madam Yang was so disgusted that she didn’t even want Tang Man. That night, she went back to her family, hired a lawyer to draft a divorce agreement, and made a big fuss.
Old Tang cried like he was going to die, regretting it immediately. The previous tenderness was gone. He found someone to ruin the mistress’s family, using various means, torturing himself into a mess to beg for Madam Yang’s forgiveness. As a tool, Tang Man was dragged out many times, but it didn’t win Madam Yang back.
Moreover, in less than a year, Madam Yang found a new boyfriend and fell into the sea of love.
This woman struggled in love all her life, stubbornly pursuing happiness, and no one could stop her.
Perhaps the Old Tang of the past could, but at that time, the man was probably too young, or maybe his eyes were blinded by power, and he gave up the only opportunity.
How many opportunities are there in life to regret? For Madam Yang, Old Tang was just one of the countless men in the past, and he was the one who made her feel the most disgusted.
In Tang Man’s opinion, Old Tang probably had no hope of winning her mother back in this life. The few years they spent together before were the only bit of fate they had in this life.
She casually picked up an orange from the coffee table, wrapped it in a tissue to peel off a layer of skin, and saw the greenish-yellow orange juice on the white tissue.
She thought that two months ago, when she and Du Henian went to a restaurant for a date, they happened to see Madam Yang sitting opposite a handsome man like a little girl, shy and bashful, with intimate actions and smiling eyes, falling into a passionate love.
Well, one couldn’t tell at all that she already had a daughter in her twenties.
That woman was always as young as a girl in her early twenties, even in appearance. At the age of forty, she could still fall into love so innocently.
But the man lying on the hospital bed was so angry at Tang Man’s words that his face turned pale. He cursed “unfilial daughter” several more times.
In the end, he became decadent again and said, “But, I love your mom. Manman, your mom is the only woman I have ever loved in my life.”
Tang Man ate a segment of orange and resisted the urge to roll her eyes again.
“Yes, yes, yes, you love my mom, the most in the world.”
Old Tang was so angry at his daughter’s tone that he directly threw the pillow on the bed, unable to curse a few words, only able to shout “unfilial daughter, unfilial daughter”.
In fact, one point that made Madam Yang feel disgusted about this marriage was that although Tang had an affair at that time, he still said he loved her, insisting on not divorcing, and entangled her for so many years.
When Tang Zhengfeng got married and had an affair with a mistress, he got divorced. Anyway, he became serious and started to practice abstinence and nourish his health, saying that he would remain chaste for Madam Yang.
But he didn’t even think that his body was no longer jade, not knowing how many times it had rolled in the filthy place. Who would be surprised by his abstinence?
Sometimes Tang Man didn’t quite understand her father’s thoughts, making things so ugly over the years, without leaving a situation that could end peacefully. Madam Yang refused to see this man even now.
So Tang Man said that Old Tang’s life truly summed up the sentence “Cheating in a moment, but half a lifetime was scattered in ashes at the crematorium.”
Perhaps for men, sex and love were separate. That was the only way she could understand Old Tang’s behavior over the years.
However, Tang Man did not pity her father at all, mocking him hard where it hurt.
Old Tang sat on the bed, complaining like a deep boudoir resentful woman in ancient times. Tang Man let it go in one ear and out the other, eating fruit while watching the variety show. After a while, when she felt that she had fulfilled her filial piety and Old Tang should not change the will he had made earlier, she prepared to leave.
After a while, Old Tang seemed to break free from his past emotions and regained his usual wisdom, at least in Tang Man’s view.
After looking at his leisurely daughter sitting on the sofa for a long time, the man on the hospital bed suddenly spoke, “Aren’t you about to graduate? Do you want me to have Assistant Xie arrange a position for you in the company first?”
Tang Man looked at Old Tang in surprise, “Do you have a terminal illness?”
“What are you talking about? Cursing your dad!” Old Tang roared at Tang Man with vigor, which put her at ease.
She shook her head, “No need, I found a job at an accounting firm and have been working for several days. I don’t want to change jobs at the moment.”
But Old Tang said, “This time I had a car accident, and some company affairs need to be handed over. You don’t want your father’s company to eventually fall into the hands of others, right? While I still have the strength to manage, you should come back and slowly take over my position.”
Others naturally referred to those uncles of the Tang family.
Except for Old Tang, who only had one daughter, Tang Man, his other uncles had quite a few children, a bunch of male cousins, not to mention the illegitimate children out there. They had started the power struggle since Tang Man was in her teens, even proposing the matter of adoption, which made Old Tang so angry at that time.
Tang Man didn’t say a word.
