Chapter 80 Where Does the Engagement Come From?
Among the many people with corrupt morals, only the most cowardly men would resort to violence within their families.
Although the elders in the family had some complaints about the merchant family background of the second son's wife, Yu worked tirelessly and diligently every day to offer suggestions for the family's livelihood. She never disgraced her identity as the daughter-in-law of the Tu Su family, so the family could not let her suffer this unfair injustice!
Tu Suye wanted to argue, but when he caught a glimpse of the unquestionable majesty in the old lady's eyes, he could only reluctantly shut his mouth.
It turns out that deep down he also understood how shameful such behavior was.
The old lady could no longer suppress her anger and closed her eyes tiredly. Then she stood up resolutely and stuffed something cold into his hand.
"I know very well that the grievances in your heart are unbearable, and I also know that the pain in your heart is difficult to resolve, but you must not violate the house rules because of this."
"Tomorrow is the day we carry coal into the city. I've discussed it with your grandfather and decided that you will go in my place. Please hide the items I'm giving you. Why not go out for a walk and relax? Don't make a similar mistake again."
At present, all the expenses of the family are managed by the old lady herself. What she secretly handed over to Tu Suye was the silver that should have been recorded in the account.
Tu Suye stared at the silver in his hand, his eyes revealing a complex emotion: "Mother, I really don't want to succumb to hard labor. I can't stand this hopeless life."
This man, who is over thirty years old, was so aggrieved that his eyes were red in front of his mother.
The old lady looked at the treasure in her heart, and her heart felt as if it was cut by a sharp blade. Her tone became gentle involuntarily: "How can I bear to watch you suffer?"
"But the time is not yet ripe. You must learn to be patient."
"My son, we have endured for countless years. You must persevere."
At present, they still need the whole family to work together to earn money for the family. Only when their family financial situation becomes better, will they be qualified to pursue other more distant dreams.
Patience is the only option.
Even if there is only one copper coin left in the Tu Su family, it must be held tightly in the palm of his son!
About a meal's time later, Tu Suye walked out of the main hall and happened to meet Tu Su Minfei who had just walked out of the back garden.
Tu Su Min Fei, who was about the same height as his father, lowered his head slightly, his eyelids drooping, hiding the overflowing emotions in his eyes. He said in a calm tone, "Father, the house where Min Yang and I live has been leaking recently. Min Yang is still young and frail, and it's hard for him to withstand the cold. Could you please let him move to your and mother's room for a few nights, sleeping on the floor, and then move back in once the roof is repaired?"
Tu Suye's eyes widened in anger as he sternly rebuked, "He's already this old, how could he be so unable to withstand even a little bit of cold? If he continues to be so pampered, who knows what he'll become in the future?!"
Tu Su Minfei gently patted Tu Su Minyang's trembling shoulders and responded calmly: "Minyang is still young, how can we hold him to the same standards as adults?"
"I've already mentioned the roof repair to my grandfather. When my eldest brother is free, he'll teach me the relevant skills. I'll send Min Yang over tonight."
With Tu Su Minyang's presence, Tu Suye could not find an opportunity to attack Yu.
Naturally, he didn't dare to make such ugly things public.
Tu Suye's anger was about to burst out, but was suppressed by his grandfather's sudden appearance. His face turned pale, and he looked up and down at the cold Tu Su Minfei, gritting his teeth and saying, "What a good son! He is really my good son!"
"I really didn't raise you in vain!"
Tu Su Minyang was so frightened that his eyes were filled with tears, but Tu Su Minfei's face did not show any fluctuation.
His eyes were deep and cold as he stared at his emotionally out-of-control father, with a deep irony in his eyes.
If the person in front of him hadn't acted nonsense, how could the situation have evolved to the point where father and son are in conflict today?
Feeling his self-esteem was hurt, Tu Suye angrily waved his hands, turned around and walked into the room. The sound of the door slamming even made Tu Su Minfei frown slightly.
Tu Suminyang nervously held his brother's hand and said with tears in his eyes: "Brother, I'm scared..."
On that sudden night, Tu Su Minyang was so frightened by the kick that he couldn't sleep for several nights in a row. The fear penetrated into his bones and kept him awake at night.
Tu Suminfei squatted down and gently poked his cheek, which was red from holding back his tears, and said gently, "Don't be afraid."
"If Daddy abuses Mommy again tonight, you're going to cry loudly, remember? The louder the better."
"Don't you always like to stay close to your sister-in-law? You stay with her all day, helping her with chores. With your sister-in-law's protection, you will definitely be safe."
Gu Yuexuan is kind-hearted and cannot bear to see a child suffer any injustice. She would never sit idly by and watch Tu Su Minyang being beaten.
Tu Su Minyang nodded as if he understood, and Tu Su Minfei gently stroked the top of his head to comfort him.
The Tu Su family was once prosperous, but the family declined because the father was spoiled by his grandmother and became a waste.
He was nobody to rely on when the family collapsed.
However, what does this matter?
The second house still has him as its pillar of support.
There are undercurrents within the family, and even those who go out are mired in unspeakable silence.
Tu Subo looked at Gu Yuexuan, who was walking and observing carefully on the ridge covered with weeds. He felt as if a heavy stone was pressing on his heart and he found it difficult to speak.
After last night's commotion, everything seemed unusual, and the handkerchief this morning was like a hanging cloud of doubt, silent and puzzling.
He fell into inexplicable anxiety, but could not find any opportunity to break the silence.
Tu Subo hesitated for a long time, and finally walked towards her, saying with a choked throat, "Xuanxuan."
Gu Yuexuan stared at the grass roots covered with mud in her hands, her brows furrowed. "What's the matter?"
"Are you still angry with me?"
For a lady from a noble family, reputation is of vital importance, and the personal belongings she carries with her are treasures that must not fall into the hands of others.
He was well aware that his behavior was inappropriate, and he had been carefully hiding it, not daring to show it to others easily.
He originally thought that Gu Yuexuan was angry because of the despicable behavior he had hidden behind his back, but when he saw Gu Yuexuan's reaction, he found that she seemed to have misunderstood him.
Gu Yuexuan pulled a little of her attention away from the tangled pile of grass roots and sighed softly, her tone carrying a hint of helplessness: "It's not that I'm in a bad mood, I just feel a little weird."
If the scene in the dream is true, she did fall in the dream and tried to escape by climbing a tree in a panic, and it was she who met Tu Subo by chance, then where did the engagement between Tu Subo and Gu Yuwei come from?
Did she really travel through time and space in a dream and have an encounter with Tu Subo?
