Chapter 263: Chill and Obsession
Whenever something happens at home, Old Man Su's stepwife will clean up her two daughters-in-law.
Even if it really doesn't matter to the daughters-in-law, this woman will use the excuse of "poor teaching" to put the fault of her grandchildren on the daughters-in-law.
And among them, she especially targeted her eldest daughter-in-law.
After all, only by putting the fault in the second master's room can she protect her heart, her youngest son and precious grandson to the greatest extent.
But she wanted to protect her son and grandson, but her eldest son also wanted to protect his wife and children, so the relationship between mother and son soon deteriorated with the passage of time.
Old man Su's step-room felt very aggrieved, she thought that her eldest daughter-in-law's pillow was blowing too much, which damaged her eldest son.
Second Master Su also felt that he was very wronged, and he felt that his mother's heart was simply biased to the ribs.
Some things that are obviously his brother's house did something wrong, his mother can actually forcefully distort the facts, and put the fault on the brains of his children.
Although most of the time he was punished was his wife, and only a few times it was his children, but was his wife someone who had nothing to do with him?
In the opinion of Second Master Su, whether his wife has face in the Su family also largely represents whether he, as a husband, has a status in the Su family.
His mother has targeted his wife again and again, does it mean that his mother has no place for his eldest son in her heart at all? Otherwise, how the hell did you do such an eccentric thing?
Second Master Su felt that he couldn't endure it anymore, he was not a victim, but in the end he lived like a culprit at home.
He jumped out and began to go toe-to-toe with Old Man Su's steproom.
With his support, his wife and children no longer respect Old Man Su's stepfamily as much as before.
Old Man Su's step-room was sad and angry, she cried and cried, made trouble, and even pressed Second Master Su more than once on the charge of "unfilial piety".
However, Second Master Su has already been released by now.
In his words, he is a person who has been determined by the imperial court to "never be hired", and he has long had no future at all, so what is he afraid of a bad reputation?
His future is ruined, and his children are still very young, so why should he continue to grieve himself for the sake of fame?
He can't just watch his wife and children live for the sake of a false name that can't be eaten or drunk, right? Can he still be considered a man?
This mother and son made a fuss, and it was two different things from Old Man Su's steproom cleaning up his daughter-in-law.
Old Man Su finally couldn't stay out of the matter anymore, and he began to help his wife clean up the mess at home.
However, the way he cleaned up the mess was obviously not what his wife liked.
Unlike his wife's partiality towards his youngest son, Old Man Su attaches more importance to and likes his second son.
Compared with his original wife, Old Man Su prefers his steproom, otherwise he would not have straightened the concubine's room directly as his steproom.
Because of his love for the stepfamily, he has some love for his second son.
But Second Master Su was able to become his father's most valued and favorite son, obviously not only because of his mother-in-law.
He studied hard, and when he was a child, he always tried his best to please Mr. Su, and he did what he liked for a long time, as well as the same way as Mr. Su, these are all important reasons why he is valued and loved by Mr. Su.
In the eyes of Old Man Su, the third master of Su San, who has achieved nothing, is a failure, and Su Shen's father, who has gone all the way to the military, is an out-and-out outlier, although he has achievements, but his "rude" way of achieving achievements is not what old man Su likes to be a sour and rotten literati.
Unlike Second Master Su, he has been following the path that Old Man Su has walked, and in him, Old Man Su has a greater sense of accomplishment as a father.
Therefore, he values his second son the most.
Because of this importance and because of the "innocence" of his second son being implicated, Mr. Su is actually quite protective of his second son's family.
If it weren't for the fact that the outside things had made him have no time to take care of him, and he trusted his stepfamily, he wouldn't have found out that his second son had been wronged until this time.
Old Man Su was distressed and angry, he first punished his youngest son and ordered him to be grounded for three months and not to go out, and then took away half of the housekeeping of his stepfamily and handed it over to Su Er's wife, Mrs. Su Er, in order to show their family's unshakable lofty status in the Su family, and help their family deter those tricky subordinates who praise the high and the low.
In the end, Mr. Su also had a heart-to-heart conversation with his second son, and he encouraged Mr. Su to devote his energy to teaching his children, and not to give up on himself because of a moment of frustration.
Under his disposition, the second master Su's family did raise their eyebrows, but the old man Su's stepfamily and his youngest son's family were dissatisfied and unhappy because of this.
is dissatisfied and depressed, and Old Man Su's stepfamily and his youngest son's family naturally continue to jump.
They jumped, and the second master Su family, who finally gained the upper hand, was not restless, after all, the second master Su and his family had suffered a lot of anger before, and now they finally had a slight upper hand, and of course this family was eager to give themselves a breath.
In this way, where can the Su family's back house be peaceful?
The old man Su, who was anxious and lacked skills, was in the dilemma of pressing the gourd to float the scoop, and ushered in his dismissal document issued by the officials.
After the dismissal, Old Man Su suddenly had a much weaker control over the Su family, whether it was his stepfamily, his sons and grandchildren, everyone suddenly didn't take him very seriously.
The long-term exhaustion, the urgency caused by the dismissal, and the strong stimulation brought by the stepfamily and children and grandchildren who did not listen to the greetings made Old Man Su pout directly.
When he woke up again, Old Man Su was only surrounded by the Second Master Su family who were still counting on him to help him make the decision.
As for his stepwife and his youngest son's family, they are not so attentive to Old Man Su.
Although he didn't dare to know what to do with Old Man Su, all kinds of snubbing in the secret have become more and more frequent and obvious.
Old Man Su was cold, and his obsession with "being an official" became deeper and deeper.
He took care of his body under the careful service of Second Master Su, and then immediately carried all the money that could be used, and brought a large number of precious things for gifts, and went to Beijing alone to go to the relationship.
