Chapter 1252: An Ambush in the Theater
Shang Xi said, "You really are Cheng Youning's biological father. You didn't tell Cheng Youning that Cheng Youning sang opera, but you actually put the blame on the alcohol. So you think singing opera is not a big problem?"
"What's the big deal about singing opera? Just don't perform in public. He will stop humming after a few days if he finds it boring."
"You think it's that simple?"
"What else?"
"Your son is idle, but he gives up halfway in everything he does! I'm not saying that singing opera is bad, but if you dare to indulge your son, he will dare to go to the street to perform acrobatics for you."
Cheng Feng touched his chin and suddenly realized: "Shang Xi, your analysis is right. Our son does have a certain degree of tenacity in learning things. If he learns to sing opera, there will be no peace in our house from now on. It seems that I have thought things too simply."
After thinking it over, the two decided not to go to the fields. Cheng Feng said that he went to the fields just to find something to do to show Master Wan, so that Master Wan would not suspect that he was idle and not doing his job.
Cheng Feng suggested, "Wife, let's go to the theater."
Shang Xi was somewhat reluctant. When she mentioned watching a play, Cheng Youning's singing immediately came to her mind, and her brain began to buzz. She said reluctantly, "Are we still going to the theater?"
"If we don't go, how do we know whether our son will go to the opera? Nothing ventured, nothing gained. We have to go."
Shang Xi admitted that what Cheng Feng said made sense, but looking at the sky, it was indeed a little early, "It's too early for us to go now!"
"Let's go to the street and eat some food at a roadside stall before leaving. Maybe we can run into our son on the street. If that happens, we can just follow him."
When Shang Xi heard that there was a possibility of being followed, she groaned inwardly, wondering why it was so difficult to be a parent to Cheng Youning!
The streets of Fengying are becoming more and more prosperous day by day, and the cold and desolate streets of the past are long gone.
Shang Xi stopped at a place selling fried cakes, "Let's each have a fried cake."
Cheng Feng looked at the small fried cakes, which were Cheng Youning's favorite. Like Shang Xi, he couldn't help but want to try a piece and feel Cheng Youning's happiness.
The two of them walked and stopped along the way, and finally stopped at the entrance of the theater, but they still didn't see Cheng Youning. It seemed that they had no choice but to go in and take a look.
Shang Xi couldn't help but sigh: "Now that everyone has money, even the theater is crowded. I wonder if there are any seats left at this time."
"We have to go in and see if there is any space and see if our son is inside."
Shang Xi thought so too. The two of them had no interest in watching operas, and even had some resistance to opera in their hearts, but it was all thanks to Cheng Youning.
When the two of them stepped into the theater, the first show of the day had already begun. Cheng Feng walked in front, and Shang Xi followed behind. Cheng Feng had just taken two steps when someone held his shoulder. He was about to take action when he found out that it was someone from their Wan family. "Why are you here?"
The man pointed to a table further back where Mr. Wan and Madam Wan were sitting, along with Han Nianxia.
"Why are they here?"
The servant of the Wan family said, "Young Master, please be careful. The master is waiting here for you and the young master."
Cheng Feng was afraid that it would be too much to explain at this time, "Why don't I go back."
The servant kindly reminded, "Master, the old man has already seen you!"
Cheng Feng happened to meet his father's eyes. He smiled and walked over: "Dad, Mom, you are here to listen to the opera, why don't you book a seat closer to the front."
"Do you think your mother and I are here to watch a show? I just want to see if you and Cheng Youning will hang out in places like this again."
"Dad, what are you thinking? Shang Xi and I came here to block Cheng Youning, but we didn't expect you to come. If we had known that you had set an ambush, Shang Xi and I would not have made this trip."
"You'd better do as you say. If I find out that you are uneducated and only think about singing and dancing all day, I will follow the family rules."
"Dad, why don't you trust me?"
"You have corrupted my grandson. How can I trust you?"
Cheng Feng didn't know whether to laugh or cry, "Dad, if you don't believe me, don't you trust Shang Xi? Shang Xi can testify for me that it was our idea to come here to block Cheng Youning."
Master Wan motioned Cheng Feng and Shang Xi to sit down. Shang Xi was definitely not guilty, she even took out the candy she bought for Cheng Youning, "Dad and Mom, Cheng Feng and I thought about it and still couldn't let go of Cheng Youning, so after some discussion, we came here. This child is unpredictable, and I don't know if the corporal punishment these days has worked on him."
Han Nianxia is the best at discouraging people. While eating the candy brought by Shang Xi, she analyzed: "It will definitely not work. Take your Cheng Youning for example. He gets beaten every month. I think he just doesn't want to learn well."
Cheng Feng said: "Han Nianxia, why don't you hope for the best for my son? My son hasn't stumbled over the same stone twice. He corrected his mistakes immediately every time he made them."
"Your son is in such a state, and you are still speaking for him! You are just protecting your son."
"What happened to my son? He just drank a little and sang a few lines. He didn't kill anyone or set anything else on fire. You're saying he's such an unforgivable sin. Shang Xi, put away the oxhide candy. Don't give it to Han Nianxia. She's going blind from eating it!"
"Cousin, you are too stingy. You said a few words to your son and you won't even give me the candy!"
"With your mouth, you can't spit out anything nice no matter how much candy you eat, so save it for my son."
"If you say so, this candy is even less suitable for your son to eat. Your Cheng Youning is full of sweet words even when he doesn't eat candy. If you give him this candy, my uncle and aunt will be fooled by Cheng Youning's sweet words and lose their way!"
Madam Wan knocked on the table with her knuckles and said, "What are you yelling about? You two siblings have nothing to argue about. It's so embarrassing. Cheng Feng, you're the cousin, so be more considerate when you speak."
Han Nianxia showed a triumphant smile, Cheng Feng was so angry, "Shang Xi, let's go to the fields. Our son is very well behaved, he may not be able to come."
Han Nianxia said: "Cousin, you trust your son too much!"
"I don't trust my own son, so how can I believe your instigating words? I know what my son is like, he is very well behaved!"
"Hahaha, cousin, look who's coming in at the door."
Hearing this, several people looked towards the door at the same time. Cheng Youning was walking in front like a proud little rooster, with a reluctant Qiao Rong following beside him.
