Chapter 89: Night Talk at the Su Family, Conflict
"Relying on outsiders is not a long-term solution, little sister. You have to change this mentality. Only by relying on yourself can you never suffer losses." Su Wen patted his little sister's shoulder and said gently.
They learned so many skills just to prepare for this day. If they still can't defeat Su Jiayi, that would be their fate.
"Yeah, I know, big brother."
The three siblings learned from Uncle Zhou that their parents had not returned yet, so they were not in a hurry to rest in the backyard and waited in the main hall.
It was not until after ten o'clock in the evening when the parents came back drunk that the family finally met.
"Mom and Dad, why did you drink so much?" Su Jiani walked forward worriedly, supported her mother, and asked.
"It's okay. When you invite people to dinner, you always drink. It's okay to drink more as long as things get done." Su Zhongguo knew that the children were worried about them, so he explained to them.
"But you can't drink so much. It seems like we have to hire a driver. It's not safe to keep doing this." This is the capital, and Su Jiani still remembers her mortal enemy.
If she encountered that, she wouldn't dare to gamble on that luck.
"Okay, I'll do as you say." Li Guixiang drank a glass of warm water and recovered.
She knew that what her daughter handed her was spiritual milk water. After drinking a glass of it, all the aftereffects of drunkenness disappeared completely.
Su Zhongguo also received filial piety from his daughter, and the drink tasted so sweet.
"Jiani is right, we need to invite more people back."
She just needed to remind them of these things. Her parents valued family more than anyone else, so Su Jiani didn't say anything more.
After their parents recovered, the three of them told them about what happened to Xu Qiuniang today.
"I didn't expect that she would still behave the same way after coming to the capital. It seems that the Zhang family protects them very well." Su Zhongguo said with a look of sarcasm.
Since he was cooperating with the Bai family, he naturally knew about the Zhang family.
The godfather that Su Jiayi recognized in Shenzhen was unable to return to Beijing and was directly imprisoned in Shenzhen. However, he died in prison less than two years later.
However, his lineage declined over the years due to various reasons.
I don’t know whether this was done by the Zhang family or Su Jiayi.
Anyway, the news Bai Shunran heard was that the Zhang family had a Miss Sun whom they loved very much, but Miss Sun's surname was not Zhang, but Su.
In the entire family, her say is higher than that of the head of the family's sons.
"If you run into them, don't call for help. After so many years, I don't think they will recognize you." Su Zhongguo warned with some concern.
After so many years, the enthusiasm in his heart has faded completely.
"What if I'm recognized?" Su Wen asked a soul-searching question at an inopportune time.
As soon as he said this, the whole family turned their eyes to him.
"You jinx, spit on me now." Li Guixiang was the first one to object. Even though he was her own son, she couldn't help but hit him.
"You little brat, if you don't know how to speak, then don't speak. No one thinks you are dumb." The smile on Su Zhongguo's face also disappeared, which showed how much he disliked hearing this.
Su Jiani and Su Jie hid and laughed secretly. Only the eldest brother in the family would do such a stupid thing.
Knowing that his parents didn't like his grandparents and his second uncle's family, he still rubbed salt into the wound.
He deserves to be punished.
"Even if they recognized you, you would deny it. You are grandchildren, not sons or daughters. It is not your place to teach them." Su Zhongguo was afraid that the children would be too obedient and be deceived, so he hurried to teach them on the spot.
Fortunately, the teacher at school didn’t know about it, otherwise I would have cried.
"I understand, Dad." Su Jiani and Su Jie responded obediently.
However, they also informed their parents about their new friends.
"They are all children of powerful families. If you get along well, make friends with them. If not, don't put yourself in a difficult position. It's not your turn to run our family yet."
We know the children mean well, but as parents, we certainly don’t want them to make friends with ulterior motives at such a young age.
"Oh, I see."
The three of them nodded obediently in response.
"But Dad, don't you find it strange? What ability does Su Jiayi have that makes the Zhang family think so highly of her?"
Su Wen is no longer a child, and he thinks more about many things.
So, he asked the question that was confusing him.
Su Jiani sighed inwardly, "Brother, you don't know, she's a person from another world with a system, she's very capable."
[If it weren't for her, how could our family have been forced to die a miserable death in our past life? Oh, you better be careful.]
[You're already seventeen or eighteen years old, and you're almost at the point where something happened in your previous life. I don't know if you can avoid it.]
Su Jiani was also a little worried.
After all, his eldest brother was beaten to death in his previous life because he helped Su Jiani.
Although I’m not in City A now, what if?
[You still need to let Big Brother recognize the person, so as not to rush over and help him impulsively.]
Listening to Su Jiani's inner thoughts, the whole family felt a little uncomfortable breathing.
Especially as parents, Su Zhongguo and his wife, they don’t want anything to happen to their children.
"Boss, if I remember correctly, your teacher said last time that he wanted us to have closed training and then participate in the competition, right?" Su Zhongguo calmed himself down, closed his eyes, put away all his thoughts, and then said to Su Wen.
Su Wen knew what his father meant. He had always known that he would be harmed by his cousin, and he also knew that he suffered that disaster because he saved her.
But his family has been separated from his second uncle's family, and he doesn't think he will encounter that thing again. Even if he does, with his current skills, he is not afraid of those people.
He thought he had avoided it, but unexpectedly, they found themselves living in the same city again.
"Well, the teacher said that we will have closed training after school starts, and I will focus on shooting." His big body is most suitable for power-type competitions.
"By then I'm afraid I won't be able to go out for a year."
Su Zhongguo's worry faded when he heard this. "Since your teacher has said so, then I will listen to him."
As long as my son can avoid it, one year is nothing.
Su Jiani's eyes lit up when she heard the conversation between her father and her eldest brother. "Brother, can you really represent the country in the competition?"
Bringing glory to the country is a great deed. Go for it, big brother, you must make a name for yourself.
Su Wen nodded shyly, "Yes, you can, but you have to be eighteen to participate in the event. But you can do it next year. Don't worry, little sister, I will definitely bring you the gold medal."
He was so well versed in martial arts that he felt a little embarrassed to use it to participate in the competition, after all, he was cheating.
"Make a pinky promise. I want lots of medals." Su Jiani had a bright smile on her face. She stretched out her hand and insisted on making a pinky promise with her elder brother.
Su Wen was naturally satisfied. "Okay, pinky promise. I'll bring you lots of medals."
Seeing the brother and sister like this, their parents Su Zhongguo and Li Guixiang were very pleased.
"Okay, the Chinese New Year is getting closer. After I recruit a driver, you guys can take some time to prepare the New Year's goods for the family." Li Guixiang didn't want them to continue chatting. After all, she would feel unhappy.
"No problem, but Mom, you have to give us money. Xiaojie and I don't have much money." Su Wen stretched out his hand and asked for money.
Li Guixiang was amused by his behavior. "Why, your father treated you unfairly, didn't he? You've spent all your monthly living expenses?"
Of course she would give him the money, but it was rare to see her son in this state, so she had to tease him.
"It's all spent, Mom. You don't know how petty Dad is." Su Wen complained immediately.
Su Zhongguo was so angry that he took action.
After giving his son a good beating and working up a sweat, Su Zhongguo sent his three children to bed.
It’s getting late now, it’s almost twelve o’clock.
The conversation lasted until late at night.
Su Zhongguo and Li Guixiang lived in the east wing of the front yard, mainly for convenience. Of course, they also had a house in the middle yard, but they rarely lived there on weekdays.
I stayed at home quietly for two days, mainly because it snowed heavily during these two days and there was nowhere to go.
As soon as the snow stopped, the three of them planned to go out to buy New Year's goods.
The Little New Year is coming soon, so we have to get everything ready at home.
Fortunately, the driver and bodyguards hired by my parents are here today, so it is much more convenient for them to go out. At least they can drive themselves out and don’t have to walk or take a car anymore.
"Brother Peng, Brother Mao, let's go together. We can squeeze in so there's room." Su Wen liked the three people his parents brought back early in the morning. He could tell at first glance that they were martial artists.
After learning that they were retired soldiers, Su Wen respected them even more.
Look, in just one morning, my brother has already been called.
After Su Zhongguo came to Beijing, he not only bought a house, but also prepared transportation for travel.
There are two cars in the family. Su Zhongguo and his family drove away one, and the other was left at home for Su Jiani and her family to go out.
There was no driver before, and they were young, so they naturally couldn't drive out.
Now that I have a driver, I have to go out for a ride.
Peng Qing and Mao Jianming naturally listened to the host's words and said, "Okay." They agreed without saying a word.
Su Jiani really didn't want to go, but her brothers were so enthusiastic that she couldn't refuse.
So, after bringing Aunt Zhou with us, the six of us got in the car and headed for the mall at the street corner.
This is one of the only two shopping malls in Beijing besides Wangfujing Department Store.
They sell all kinds of things there, and the main thing they sell is that they are expensive.
Most of the important people in Beijing come here to buy things, after all, it is also a symbol of status and face.
What they didn't expect was that Su Wen's bad luck really came true.
When they were buying New Year's goods, they actually ran into the old couple from the Su family.
Fortunately, the two men did not recognize the three of them.
This is all thanks to Su Jiani. Over the years, she has been feeding him a lot of diluted spiritual milk. Although her appearance has not changed drastically, at least her appearance is more outstanding, and there are some changes from her previous appearance.
If you don't look closely, you really can't see anything.
If it were Su Zhongguo and Li Guixiang, the old couple might be able to recognize them at a glance, and at most would just be surprised that they still looked so young.
But if no one told Su Zhongguo’s children, they would never recognize him even if they were beaten to death.
Seeing Su Wen stop, Su Jiani was a little puzzled, "Brother, what are you doing? Why aren't you moving?"
She was led by her third brother and followed behind her eldest brother. When she saw her eldest brother stop, she walked quickly to him and asked curiously.
Su Wen didn't say anything, but like Su Jie, he held his younger sister's other hand.
"Did I see my grandparents?" He pointed to a store not far ahead.
"It's right inside."
Su Jiani was speechless. She just let it happen.
She's not afraid as long as Su Jiayi is not around.
"Shall we go in and do some shopping?" she asked.
Aunt Zhou, who was walking in front, looked back and saw that the young master and young lady had stopped, so she hurried back.
I happened to overhear their conversation.
"Miss, there's nothing we need there."
Hearing this, Su Jiani shook her brother's hand, which was tightly holding hers, and said, "Since there is nothing, then what are you looking at? Let's go quickly. There are too many people here."
Su Wen suppressed the nervousness in his heart and said, "Okay, let's go."
I took my sister and walked downstairs.
Although Peng Qing and Mao Jianming did not understand what was going on, they did not walk in front of their employers as before, but walked side by side with them.
So they went down the third floor and came to the second floor. After Aunt Zhou added some more things, they finally bought almost everything. There were still some things that required Aunt Zhou and her friends to run around a little more.
Because they met people they didn't want to meet, Su Wen and others were not in a good mood that day.
At this time, Su Jiani missed her master very much. If he were there, she would not feel so uneasy.
Meeting the two elders of the Su family proves that the time to meet Su Jiayi is not far away.
The capital city is neither big nor small, so it is only a matter of time before we meet.
The only thing she was thankful for was the equipment she had provided to her family, which fully armed them inside and out.
Even if she encountered Su Jiayi's system, she believed she could hold on until she and her master arrived to rescue her.
Peng Qing and Mao Jianming were puzzled as to why the three of them looked so worried after returning.
They are not only hired drivers, but also bodyguards.
Although it was not appropriate to ask too many questions, they also planned to wait for Boss Su to come back and report what happened today.
It's a quiet day.
After Su Zhongguo came back, he heard from Peng Qing and others about the abnormalities of the three children.
He immediately went to ask, and when he learned that he had met the Su family again, he sighed.
"You should be prepared. This side will be seen sooner or later."
"I know, Dad. I'm just a little worried." Su Wen understood what his father meant. "Don't worry, we will pay attention."
I thought the matter was over, but who would have thought that we would meet again when we went out.
It’s a pity that the two people from the Su family didn’t recognize Su Wen and others.
"Whose family are you from? My grandson hasn't had enough fun yet. Can you play with my grandson for a while longer?"
Today, Su Wen and others were invited by Ruan Daoyong and Ruan Mengmeng to come to their home to play.
Unexpectedly, I ran into the Su family's elders in Ruan's community.
They were holding a little boy who looked no more than five years old.
It was obviously the little boy who threw the snowball at them first, and they were just fighting back, but they didn't expect to be caught by the two men and given a lecture.
Su Wen thought it was better to have less trouble than more, so he took two snowballs from the boy and planned to leave.
Unexpectedly, he was stopped by two people and asked, "Is that what a human being would say?"
hehe.
Playing with his grandson?
How to play?
Let him play for fun?
"We are busy." Su Wen did not want to stay any longer, so he planned to leave with his brother and sister-in-law.
Unexpectedly, Xu Qiuniang walked up to Su Wen and Su Jiani without saying a word.
"You have to make time even if you don't have time. My sweet baby wants to play snowballs, so you guys stay here and play with him." There was an arrogance on his face that came from nowhere.
It seemed like it was a great honor for them to play with his children.
