Chapter 221 Bloodline Suppression
Su Wan also spoke up for Su Chen. She told Su's mother that Su Chen actually knew martial arts and that Jiang Liehu was his master.
But Su's mother still didn't believe it. Why hadn't she noticed this before? Even if she had learned some kung fu, how powerful could it be?
She thought Su Wan made it up for her.
"Okay, you all know everything, but you're hiding it from me, right?" Su's mother stood up, wiping her tears as she spoke, and pretended to leave.
Before leaving, Su's mother left a message:
"Su Chen, if you insist on doing what you want, don't recognize me as your mother anymore."
After saying that, Su's mother went back to her room angrily, leaving the five siblings in the dining room, staring at each other.
Su Chen was dejected, and Su Yun gave him a thumbs up:
"Third brother, you are really amazing. You decided such a big thing on your own. You didn't think it through."
"Third brother, have you really decided to go to war? Do you regret it?"
When Su Yi saw this, he knew that his third brother was not joking. He had already seen that his third brother would not be willing to be an ordinary person.
In fact, he knew from a young age that his third brother was secretly learning martial arts from Jiang the Hunter. Once, he secretly followed him to see what was happening. Because his third brother went out every day in a mysterious manner, he was unwilling to take him, his fourth brother and Gu Yue to play together.
So he was curious at the time and discovered this secret, but he knew more than other children since he was a child, so he pretended to be stupid until now and didn't say anything.
"I don't regret it. This has always been my dream. You all have things you want to do, and so do I." Su Chen answered affirmatively.
Su Yun wouldn't say anything. Although he was also worried about his third brother's safety, he had already signed up, so what else could he say?
"You'd better find a way to get past your mother first. Didn't you listen to what she said? If you dare to go, she will disown you."
"You have a lot of ideas. Why don't you think about it for me?" Su Chen glanced at him indifferently.
He was also anxious. Wasn't his mother angry?
"Don't you know how many beatings I've received since I was little? Among the five brothers, I was beaten the most. I'm terrified of our mother. I don't dare to provoke her at this critical moment."
Su Yun's fear of his mother has existed since childhood. Although his mother is usually gentle and smiling, when she stir-fries meat with bamboo, she is very decisive. This is the suppression of blood.
Speaking of this, I can still vividly remember the scenes of Su Yun being stripped of his pants and beaten when he was a child. I am afraid that he doesn't feel the pain and will dare to do it again next time.
"Only Wanwan can go and talk to mother about this matter. Mother won't be angry with Wanwan. Why don't you let Wanwan go." Su Yi was the only one who could say something useful.
After he finished speaking, the four brothers looked at Su Wan at the same time, placing high hopes on her.
The brothers are the type who support each other. It doesn’t matter who doesn’t have a dream. No matter what the third brother wants to do, the fourth and fifth brothers will support him.
"Don't worry, I'll go talk to Mom in a minute, but I have an idea that might get Mom to agree."
Even without her brothers telling her, Su Wan would have gone to see her mother, but she also thought of a trick that might be able to convince her mother.
"What's the idea?" The third, fourth, and fifth brothers asked at the same time.
"Mother doesn't agree with Third Brother going to war. The main reason is that she's worried about his safety. She's afraid that he might encounter something unexpected on the battlefield and be unable to protect himself. That's because she doesn't know his strength, so she's so afraid. Didn't Jiang Yu leave behind several guards? They're all martial arts masters. Tomorrow I'll bring Mother out, and Third Brother will demonstrate your martial arts in front of her. Let her know that you're not just a mediocre kung fu master, but that you're capable of protecting yourself. That way, Mother's concerns about you will dissipate a lot."
Su Wan's idea is feasible and worth a try.
After discussing it, the brothers decided to do as she said.
That night, Su Chen went to find Feng Ying. When Feng Ying heard that he was going to the battlefield, he admired him very much and was also happy to help him prove himself in front of Madam Su. He would bring a few brothers over tomorrow morning to have a sparring match with Su Chen.
At night, Su Wan brought hot water to Su's mother's room to find her. Su's mother was really sad and was crying quietly there alone.
It had only been a short while, but her eyes had turned red from crying. Su Wan felt so distressed.
Seeing her daughter coming, Su's mother cried even more sadly. She confided to her daughter that it was not that she did not want Su Chen to pursue his dream, but as a mother, she really did not want her son to take risks. She said, "My daughter, you are not a mother yet, so you don't understand the pain in your mother's heart. Parents always hope that their children can live a safe life."
Su Wan was infected by her and started crying. She said:
"Mom, I understand, I understand everything. I also feel sorry for my brothers and don't want them to suffer, but Third Brother is full of passion and skills. His dream since he was a child is to have the opportunity to serve his country one day. It's not that Third Brother doesn't care about you, it's because he cares about you and is afraid that you will be angry and afraid that you will disagree, so he hesitates and dares not speak. But he also respects and loves you from the bottom of his heart, otherwise he wouldn't beg me and Big Brother to persuade you and enlighten you. But if you force him to stay at home, I believe Third Brother will never be happy again. Why don't you agree to him?"
The mother and daughter talked late into the night and even slept together at night. They talked until midnight. Su Wan told her the story of her third brother when he was a child and the hunter Jiang. As she talked, she finally stopped crying.
But she was worried about how to explain to Su's father when he came to Xiangzhou that he didn't even know about such a big thing and sent the child to the front line.
In fact, from this moment on, Su's mother had already compromised.
…
The next morning, Su Wan took his mother to the yard. Feng Ying brought four guards to compete with Su Chen.
Su's mother still didn't understand what was going on. Both mother and daughter's eyes were swollen and red, and it seemed that they had cried for a long time last night.
Su Wan brought a chair for her to sit on, and then signaled to the third brother that he could start.
"I've heard that you, Su Chen, are the only disciple of Master Jiang Yunhe. Today I came to seek your advice. Sorry for the inconvenience." Fengying is also a good actor, and he created suspense in one go.
He fought Su Chen in a duel, using all his strength. The two of them fought with two unsheathed swords. Fengying's attack was fierce. Su Chen defended at first, and then started to attack after figuring out his moves.
The two men fought from the open space to the wall, from the wall to the roof, and finally back to the ground. Mother Su was terrified watching the whole process. Her third son could climb walls and climb roofs effortlessly, and was not at a disadvantage when fighting with Fengying. He was very strong. It was Fengying who had to use all his strength to hold on for so long, and it was a bit difficult for him to cope with it.
