"Why do you like money so much?" the middle-aged man asked again.

"Because money is a good thing, I like it, head office." Zhang Li Xiaohu snorted.

The middle-aged man looked at him silently and said, "People can deceive everyone, but only themselves can't be deceived."

"Forget it, let's just keep spending it here." Zhang Li Xiaohu said angrily.

The middle-aged man no longer urged, but drank tea silently.

Spring and autumn come, Zhang Li Xiaohu doesn't know how long he has been sitting here, but he feels that he is losing something very important.

He couldn't tell, but it seemed important to him.

"Why do you have to ask me about this?" Zhang Li Xiaohu couldn't help asking.

"Because you can't answer me." The middle-aged man smiled and said: "Everyone has a secret that can't be told to others, and you are the same. You are willing to pay a huge price for this, even if you can't leave here. can speak."

Zhang Li Xiaohu was silent for a while and said, "But now I'm willing to say it again."

"This surprised me." The middle-aged man said in surprise, "Why are you willing to tell your secret?"

"Because I have to face it eventually. In fact, people who know my past know this, but they dare not mention it in front of me, so I can escape." Zhang Li Xiaohu chuckled, his fox face was so beautiful Some thrilling.

"My mother is a prostitute." Zhang Li Xiaohu looked down at the teacup that was long out of tea, "If some children of the noble family are not talented, they can be playful children. My father is like this."

"Like all the clichés in this story, my father went to a brothel to prostitute my mother."

"The brothels have medicines to keep children from getting pregnant, but for some reason she still got me."

Zhang Li Xiaohu said this with a mocking look on his face: "Maybe it's deliberate, wanting to leap into the dragon gate."

"In any case, she went to my father and put my father in charge."

"My father is a flirtatious. How could he care about such a thing? Besides, it's just a prostitute. The girl is pregnant with a child. Who knows if it's his?"

"He let my mother drive away, and my stupid mother didn't know what to think. She should have knocked me out, but she still gave birth to me."

"She didn't go to my father again. Maybe she gave up. In the first month after giving birth, she went to pick up customers, and I left it to an aging prostitute to take care of."

Zhang Li Xiaohu sighed: "It's really a miracle that I survived."

"When I was a child, she was very cold towards me. No matter if I was hungry or thirsty, she would not glance at me. She just gave some money to the brothel every month as a living allowance for me to stay there."

"She went to accompany those benefactors to make money, and when she made money, she went to gamble with extravagance, but she is my mother after all, and I don't blame her."

"Things changed when I was five years old. People from Zhang Li's family found me. You may not know that people in Zhang Li's family are a bit special. They immediately recognized me as a member of Zhang Li's family." Zhang Lixiao The fox pointed to his fox face with a pointy chin.

"The Zhang Li family doesn't know why, and they didn't threaten the woman. That woman bargained with the Zhang Li family that day, and they bargained in front of me, treating me like a piece of goods." He smiled nervously, his eyes widened. There is sadness in it.

"In the end, the price was negotiated. The Zhang Li family paid 10,000 Xuan coins to take me away, and the woman could get 10,000 Xuan coins."

"She had a smile on her face and asked me to go with the Zhang Li family."

"I asked her, is this price too cheap?"

"She said that she also wanted to sell at a higher price, but the other party would not increase the price. She felt that the price was okay. She had a look of regret on her face, and said with a smile that it's a pity that your father didn't come again. If you can sell 10,000 profound coins, you will not have to worry in this life.”

Zhang Li Xiaohu paused for a while when he said this, and restrained all the emotions on his face, "From that day on, I have nothing to do with her."

"I don't want to be the most powerful monk, I want to be the richest person in the world. I want her to know what kind of God of Wealth she sold!"

...

...

Yelaitianxiang still couldn't do it. If she lost her tongue, she might never hear her voice again.

She hated her voice, but was afraid of losing it.

The emotions are complex.

Later, she had to speak up, because if she didn't speak up, everything was gone. She spoke up, and the family's favor came back to her.

She doesn't want to lose the care of her loved ones.

She kept singing and singing.

Until her throat was hoarse, she still sang desperately, and her throat began to smoke, until it burned up once.

She lost her voice.

Her parents and grandma all watched in horror and abandoned her.

She became dumb, just like her sister, lost all love.

"What can I do without a voice?" she asked herself.

She showed a sad smile, "I'm useless."

She pulled out the dagger that once tried to cut off her tongue~lightnovelpub.net~ and placed it on her heart, ready to end her sad life.

But she stopped because she felt unwilling.

"Am I going to die without a voice?" she asked herself, feeling a little ridiculous. "If that's the case, my Yelaitianxiang life would be too ridiculous."

"I can't die!"

...

...

Years are silent.

Under the guidance of his grandfather, Xiong Feixiu gradually grew into a qualified family owner.

Grandpa later died, but he still really took over the mountain-like burden, and his hunched back was no longer straight.

He has survived several crises.

The Xiong family grew and grew in his hands.

He never married, and the children of the Xiong family respected him very much.

But he remained unhappy.

Hundreds of years later, his lifespan also came to an end.

Looking at the familiar and unfamiliar family members who knelt on the ground.

He stared blankly at the ceiling, waiting for the Shou Gui to arrive.

"Is my life like this?"

"The Xiong family didn't decay in my hands. It seems like a good life like this, but why do I feel unwilling?"

He frowned slightly.

"Maybe...maybe...because I died after fifteen."

"Died at the moment of becoming the head of the family."

"If you don't have the life you want, you will no longer be that domineering Xiong Feixiu."

"Just not being the head of the Xiong family, how can I live up to the expectations of my grandfather and parents? How can a person be so selfish?"

"But what do I do? Is my life just wasted?"

He faintly saw the emerging ghost, he smiled softly, and he got the answer: "I can be the head of the Xiong family, but only in my way, otherwise I would rather not do it!"

This is his answer.
