Although Su Gaoqiang and Liu Yufeng really wanted to get the Zhou family's "secret recipe," they also knew that they might not be able to succeed.
But marrying Su Tiantian to the only son of the Gao family would bring immediate benefits—
For example, the bride price for marrying her.
"Did Tingting's five neighbor girls marry well?" Su Gaoqiang asked his wife.
As a housewife, Liu Yufeng did housework and inquired about various information.
She also frequently visited her daughter Su Tingting's in-laws' house, not to inquire whether Su Tingting had been beaten by her husband again, but to ask for favors.
Therefore, she also knew about the situation of Su Tingting's in-laws and Su Tingting's neighbors.
The five daughters of the Gao family did indeed marry well. After all, to benefit their only son, they naturally had to ensure that their daughters married well.
The Gao family's five daughters all married into very good families, and there were basically no instances of marrying down, allowing them to continue to use their husbands' families' resources to support their own families after marriage.
Liu Yufeng's eyes lit up when she heard his question. "You mean?"
Su Gaoqiang gave her a meaningful look.
You can't expect two different kinds of people to sleep in the same bed. Liu Yufeng and Su Gaoqiang are a couple with similar values.
So they could understand each other's meaning with just a glance.
The five daughters of the Gao family would use their husbands' families' belongings to subsidize their own families. So if Su Tiantian were to marry the only son of the Gao family, wouldn't the things her five sisters-in-law used to subsidize their own families be given to Su Tiantian?
When the time comes, Liu Yufeng will step in and coax things, and then the Gao family's things will become the Su family's.
Liu Yufeng understood Su Gaoqiang's meaning. Although she was still unwilling to give up on the Zhou family's possessions, she was no longer so attached to them.
She knew very well that the risk of letting her daughter seduce Zhou Cunzong was too great.
If Zhou Cunzong remains unmoved, it wouldn't be impossible for him to ruin Su Tiantian's reputation.
Even if they succeed, if Shen Wenxiu makes a scene, and her family, the Shen family, also makes a scene, Su Tiantian will still not be able to get better.
How could she have been so blinded by greed and agreed to her daughter's plan to seduce Zhou Cunzong?
This risk is too great.
The next day.
"What? You want me to marry my sister's neighbor? No way! I won't!"
The next day, when Su Tiantian heard her parents tell her to give up Zhou Cunzong and marry Su Tingting's neighbor, her face was full of disbelief and resistance.
She had liked Zhou Cunzong for so long, and finally convinced her parents to let her seduce a married man, but now all her efforts had been in vain.
How could she accept this?
She immediately thought of Su Tingting. It must have been something Su Tingting said to her parents when she came back yesterday that caused their attitude to change so quickly.
"It's no use if you don't want to. You have to marry him." Su Gaoqiang coldly rebuked her, "You may not care about your reputation, but we do. If you make a name for yourself as a womanizer, what will our family do?"
"Su Tiantian, you've been spoiled by us since you were little and never do anything. Don't end up dragging us down with you."
"If you get arrested for having an affair, don't expect me to save you, don't even think about it."
Su Gaoqiang sternly warned his daughter, scolding her and telling her not to have any delusions that would bring trouble to their family.
The reason he changed so quickly was because the benefits he gained from Zhou Cunzong weren't so great that he could give up the entire Su family.
If the Zhou family were a prominent family in Guangzhou, like a military family such as Zhou Ling's husband Song Che's family, Su Gao might have forcefully pressured everyone to let his daughter seduce him.
But who can blame Zhou Cunzong for not being one?
The Zhou family is just an employee family. Although Zhou Qingyun is very capable, he is not a powerful tycoon, so he has no need to take risks.
"I'll arrange a blind date for you with that young man from the Gao family in a couple of days. You have to go." Su Gaoqiang gave her the order without consulting her.
"Dad? How could you do this to me?" Su Tiantian couldn't believe it.
Her father loved her so much, how could he sell her like he sold her sister?
"Sweetie, how can you talk to your dad like that?" Liu Yufeng came out to coax her daughter, and pretended to be angry as she said to her husband, "And you, how could you say that to Sweetie?"
"Sweetie is the most well-behaved and sensible girl, how could you say that about her?"
Liu Yufeng managed to appease her daughter with her decades of experience in coaxing people, but Su Tiantian still resisted going on blind dates with others.
So she went to find Zhou Cunzong afterwards.
This time, she went directly to the Zhou family to find Zhou Cunzong, disregarding the fact that Shen Wenxiu, his legal wife, was still there.
"Brother Zong, please save me, please help me."
Su Tiantian pitifully begged Zhou Cunzong for help, looking as if she was about to die in a terrible disaster.
When she appeared, Zhou Cunzong quickly hid behind his wife; he didn't want to have anything to do with her at all.
When Su Tiantian went to the supply and marketing cooperative last time and said some ambiguous things to him, inviting him to her home for dinner, his mother found out and gave her a good beating.
His mother punished him by not allowing him to eat, or even drink any other food or water. She also made his older brother watch over him, and at night, his wife would watch over him.
He didn't eat dinner that night, and didn't eat or drink anything all night. The next morning, he only drank a glass of milk and went to work without eating anything else.
When he got to work, he was able to eat, but whether it was because his mother had spoken to his boss or it was just a coincidence, he didn't have time to eat all morning.
He didn't get to eat until noon.
