Chapter 90: Wake up
Su Yiqing secretly looked at Master Su San.
In my impression, although Master Su San is middle-aged, he is still handsome and elegant, and he has a mature charm, but when I look at it today, I find that he looks sluggish, completely different from the merry and talented people of the past, and the temperament of the whole person has changed.
"Qingqing, you...... Are you alright?" Master Su San seemed to squeeze out this sentence hard.
Su Yiqing nodded, "Father, I'm fine." ”
Hearing this, Master Su San did not show a trace of relaxation, but became even more entangled, and said after a while: "You...... Do you hate me?"
"Don't hate. In just two words, a very affirmative tone, Su Yiqing really didn't hate Su San, in fact, she saw Su San only a handful of times, she really can't talk about love and hate, at least occasionally thinking of this father, I always feel that he is a person who takes care of his own enjoyment, but she is not Su San, and she doesn't know what he has experienced, some small things that seem ordinary to others are fatal blows to people.
Maybe Master Su San is really in love with his ex-wife, so that his beloved wife's temperament has changed greatly after his death, or he really can't get along with Xu's family, although he is romantic and irresponsible, but in the end he didn't rob the people's girls and bully the good, a very ordinary man, compared to several other masters who are good at franchise in Yuanping Bofu, it is already good.
Hearing Su Yiqing say that he didn't hate, Su San was even more gloomy, as if he was saying to Su Yiqing, and as if he was talking to himself: "That's right, I heard that it takes effort to hate someone, and I, as a father, don't deserve your resentment." ”
Su Yiqing didn't know what to say now, didn't she seem to mean that, it should be said that she had a neglectful attitude towards Master Su San, of course, in her impression. Master Su San treated her and Brother Xu the same, and even Brother Ming before didn't care much about him, and all his energy was given to the aunts in the backyard.
In the silent atmosphere, Su San took out a bag from his arms and handed it to Su Yiqing, "Qingqing, this is for you, and I have a little heart as a father." ”
Su Yiqing took it and opened it to take a look. I couldn't help but be taken aback. It's a stack of silver tickets. For one denomination of 1,000 taels, it is estimated that there are more than a dozen of them, that is, more than 10,000 taels.
The finances of the third room are all controlled by the Xu family, and it is not enough for Master Su San's own monthly income to be used on his aunt, where did he get so much silver? Could it be that he pretends to be poor and oppresses his daughter-in-law on weekdays?
Seeing Su Yiqing's obvious surprise. Master Su San sighed and said, "This was given to me by your eldest uncle and second uncle, and they wanted me to promise ...... in the court."
Master Su San's voice became smaller and smaller, and he couldn't hear it directly, and his head was lowered, not daring to look at Su Yiqing's face again.
Su Yiqing understood, this was the money that Master Su and Second Master Su asked Master Su to promise to sell their daughter.
In fact, the key to this family affair lies in what Zhao Boyang said, parents are in charge of marriage matters, if Master Su San bites and does not agree, no one can do anything. After all, they are engaged, and they are innocent parties, and they can't bear the mistakes of others, but Master Su San agreed without hesitation.
However, Master Su San's temperament is also being calculated by all parties, and even Zhao Boyang can't withstand the pressure. It is impossible for a man who has always been cowardly and incompetent to resist, even if he can hold on, he can't change anything, this is not just a family matter, it involves many aspects, involving the dispute between the two countries.
"Father, is there so much silver in total?" Su Yiqing asked suddenly.
"Yes, ten thousand taels, I didn't move a cent. Master Su San became nervous and hurriedly explained, "I don't actually want to collect this money, it's just ...... I don't have the courage to refute your eldest uncle and second uncle, after all, their official positions are bigger than mine, and they will take care of us in the third room in the future...... So...... It's all my incompetence as a father, and I can't protect my daughter. ”
As Master Su San spoke, he became annoyed.
Su Yiqing felt that if he was a woman, he would definitely be crying at this moment.
But what can she say, she can't say against her will, Master Su San's approach is right, whether it is from a man or a father, this is not right, he didn't even fight.
Forget it, Su Yiqing was about to say something comforting, when a thought suddenly flashed in her mind, and she approached Su San and said, "The second aunt is willing to give me 20,000 taels of makeup, and the two uncles add up to give that little, isn't it a bit less?"
Master Su San was stunned for a moment, and looked at Su Yiqing as if he didn't know him.
The smile on Su Yiqing's face was dignified and decent, but what she said was so ...... Inappropriate.
Master Su San remembered the memory of a long time ago, when Su Yiqing was still very young, he was about two or three years old and wore red clothes for the New Year, and he pulled his shirt and asked him to hug him, but at that time he thought about Xinna's aunt, and it was too late to hug the beauty, how could he have time to hold his daughter, so he asked the maid to take her away.
This is the earliest memory, and he doesn't remember it anymore, only vaguely remembering that this daughter is getting more and more cowardly, and he still thinks that the girl is still a little softer, if she is like her mother, unless she is a man like him, who can bear it?
The days of wind and snow always fly by, I don't know when, my daughter's has grown up, but her temperament is not as he expected, of course, it seems that now it is not good to be soft and harmonious, and the family affair is full of twists and turns, and the final result is like this, for another girl, I am afraid that I can't bear it, and I have already gone crazy.
It's all his fault as a father, seeing that his daughter is about to marry far away, and he doesn't know that he can see each other again in this life, he remembered that it was his own daughter, and he should do his duty as a father, but it's over, he can't do anything, and even becomes the executioner of his daughter falling into the abyss.
He is not a ruthless person, he is just used to escaping, as soon as there is a problem that cannot be solved, he escapes, he doesn't like Xu, so he escapes to his aunt's room, Brother Ming has an accident, he can't do anything, Aunt Liu was sent to the nunnery, he can't do anything, or choose to escape in the gentle township.
Fleeing and fleeing, and now he found that the debts had not escaped, but had accumulated one by one, as if to crush him.
For fear that for the first time, he had the idea of facing it, but it was easy to come to his daughter's room, and he felt that a woman would be unfavored after marriage, at least with more money, her life would be better.
Unexpectedly, his daughter actually said this to him.
"Qingqing, I know you have grievances, but your eldest uncle and your second uncle take good care of our three rooms, and your brother will be taken care of by them in the future, they are all a family, why worry too much?" Master Su San tried his best to persuade tactfully, hoping that Su Yiqing could understand that the three of them actually had no power or power, and seriously speaking, they were all dependent on the Bofu to survive, and they couldn't offend too much.
Su Yiqing lowered her eyes, her long eyelashes covered her eyes, so that people couldn't see what she was thinking, and after a long time, she asked, "Father, how is the fourth uncle now?"
Su San was stunned for a moment, he was not very clear about the situation of the fourth brother, but once when he was drinking flower wine, a colleague said that the fourth brother seemed to have become a real businessman, and the business was not very smooth.
Now that Su Yiqing mentioned this matter again, he faintly felt that Yuanping Bofu seemed to be sorry for the fourth brother, after all, the fourth brother's previous contribution to Yuanping Bofu was obvious to all, but the eldest brother and mother both said that the fourth brother was doing business outside in the name of Bofu, so he did it like this, and there was nothing wrong with this at first glance, but thinking about it, the fourth brother is also the son of Bofu, just because his mother is a concubine, he is inferior in this life, so he is not qualified to enjoy the Yiqiē of Bofu?
When his business is done, Bofu should share it, once he fails, it is his own vision, his own bad intentions, and all the consequences are borne by himself.
This is really a bit unfair, so over the years, he feels that it is better not to have children, lest his own children be divided into three, six, nine and so on, which is too pitiful.
Su Yiqing looked at the change in Su San's eyes, and said softly: "Father, my daughter doesn't want to say that the elders are not, but the father is a real person, you are so compromised, what is really going on in the future, will the two uncles take care of us?"
Master Su San was suddenly a little dumbfounded, maybe he would have said that he could before, but now, he really didn't dare to conclude.
Su Yiqing sighed softly: "Father, say something that your daughter shouldn't say, you should really think about it in the future, relying on others and relying on others is not a long-term solution after all, you and your mother ...... Anyway, it's a father, and you can't be separated in this life, shouldn't you think about the future?"
Su San faced his daughter's bright gaze and shrank a little, he, he has been cowardly all his life, he has been incompetent all his life, and now he is fighting, can he?
Everything stops at the point, Su Yiqing is not good at persuading too much, anyway, Su San knows the truth, whether she is willing to work hard, she doesn't know, think about herself, as a noble girl, not to mention a collection of thousands of favors, but at least she is better than many people, but in the end, she is still the one who can be drowned by a little wind and waves.
Sanfang is now weak, as the pillar of the pillar, Master Su San is obedient to the two brothers like this, and separates from the Xu family, it is conceivable that when Mrs. Cen and Mrs. Zhou are a hundred years old or can't take care of things, Sanfang can't support this family with smart women alone, and some things must be fought by men.
She is about to marry far away, but she is afraid that it will be difficult to return to Yuanping Bofu again in this life, and she doesn't want the third room to fall like this.
