Chapter 567: Old Man Su was heartbroken
It was a rare opportunity for Su Xiaoliu to be praised by her brothers and sisters-in-law. She was so proud!
But why do you become smart today?
Could it be that he was not smart before?
"Ahem...it's okay as long as you understand it in your heart, don't make a fuss." Old man Su said after two dry coughs.
The Su brothers quickly said, "Dad, we know."
The emperor is already so unlucky, they certainly know it in their hearts but won't say it out loud.
Su Xiaoliu touched his head and decided to talk more to live up to his reputation as a smart person!
So, he asked, "Dad, is the emperor going to reward you? Is he going to make you a high official? Look at our family. Mother and sister both have high ranks, but you're a commoner. Everyone in the village laughs at you for being a husband because of his wife, a father because of his daughter. Everyone in the village laughs at you for not being able to manage the family."
"Am I not capable of running a household? I'm blessed!" Old Man Su glared and shouted, "I'm blessed, that's why I married a good wife and had a good daughter. Let them envy me!"
At the end of his speech, Old Man Su raised his neck with a look of great pride!
"That's right! Our father is so lucky! Which man in the whole village doesn't envy our father?" said Su Lao San.
"That's right! Xiaoliu, don't talk nonsense! Among all the men in the whole village, our father is the luckiest!" said Su Laosi.
Boss Su, “…”
Both of his younger brothers have spoken, and as the older brother, he has to show his authority to his father.
"Our father... our father has more prestige in the village than the village chief."
Boss Su finally spoke out the truth.
In Daliushu Village, Old Man Su is definitely more prestigious than the village chief.
Of course, compared with Xiaotangbao, it is still far behind.
There is no way, even if Xiao Tangbao points to a deer and says it is a horse.
The people of Daliushu Village would definitely say in unison that it was a horse!
They have mastered the skill of telling lies with open eyes.
Once Old Man Su was comforted by his three sons, he immediately felt relieved.
"Little brat, learn from your brothers!"
Old Man Su reached out and slapped Su Xiaoliu on the back of the head.
Of course, I didn't want to use too much force.
After all, your son has just become a little smarter, don't beat him until he's stupid.
Su Xiaoliu felt his father patting the back of his head.
He couldn't help but chuckle and said, "I understand, Dad, but you saved the emperor. If the emperor appointed you as a high official, the people in the village would definitely envy you even more..."
Old Man Su suddenly had a heart attack.
Why was he so mean at that time?
How come he lost his reward just by saying such flattering words?
Old man Su regrets it!
Although he always said that his daughter-in-law was a royal lady, he was proud and happy, and he was willing to let his wife be the reason for his status.
However, only he himself knew that it was not the case at all!
As a man, I cannot earn a title for my wife, but instead let her be protected by my late father-in-law. How unpleasant it is!
Old man Su felt unhappy. He felt heartbroken when he thought about the reward that was about to be given to him slipping away.
As soon as Mrs. Su saw the man's expression, she realized something was wrong and immediately glared at Su Xiaoliu.
"Don't talk nonsense! Your father saved the emperor. It is his duty as a citizen of Dayan! Even if the emperor wants to give him a reward, your father will not accept it!" said Old Lady Su.
After hearing what his wife said, Old Man Su immediately recovered to full health.
My wife still understands me!
Old Man Su raised his chin and said righteously, "Your mother is right. The emperor originally wanted to reward Dad, but Dad flatly refused!"
Su Xiaoliu, "...Dad, are you stupid? This is such a good opportunity to turn things around, why did you give it up?"
Old Man Su, “…”
No! This son must be beaten!
Old man Su wanted to copy the soles of shoes.
After hearing what Su Xiaoliu said, the other brothers of the Su family all looked at Old Man Su and expressed the same meaning as Su Xiaoliu with their eyes.
There was no way. As men, especially married men, they could understand their father's situation better than Su Xiaoliu.
What do you mean you don't mind? No way!
If you are a man, you will mind!
Old Man Su, "...what are those looks like?"
"Dad, are you refusing... too harshly?" Su Lao San asked doubtfully.
"Yes, Dad, actually you just need to be polite to the emperor, don't refuse too completely..." Su Lao Si also said.
Boss Su, “…”
He felt that what his brothers said made sense.
Old Man Su rubbed his chest.
Looking at his sons, he gritted his teeth.
Was he leaving no room for negotiation? Was he rejecting too completely?
It’s the Emperor… After the Emperor finished speaking, there was no further comment.
Old man Su was miserable, and the villain in his heart was in tears.
"Humph! Do you think Dad is the same as you?" Old Man Su's face showed a righteous expression, and he said deafeningly: "Did Dad save the emperor for the reward?!"
The Su family brothers said, "..."
Of course not.
However, if the emperor gives it to you, you can't just refuse it, right?
Old Man Su snorted, his sense of justice growing stronger.
Pointing at his sons, he continued with a look of regret: "How can a man be so worldly?! So short-sighted?! The emperor loves his people like his own children and works hard to govern the country. I saved such a wise emperor, which is equivalent to saving the whole world. It is my honor..."
As Old Man Su spoke, he patted his chest again.
No, it still hurts.
The eyes of the Su family brothers looking at Old Man Su turned into admiration!
Dad is simply great!
This level of enlightenment and realm is something they can’t even catch up with!
Old Mrs. Su looked at Old Man Su knowingly, feeling a little amused and helpless.
Although Old Man Su managed to scare his sons, he failed to scare his own wife.
Of course, Old Mrs. Su would definitely not lose face for her husband in front of her sons and daughters-in-law.
Su Xiaoliu patted his chest and said, "Dad, don't worry. When I save the emperor in the future, I won't ask for a reward!"
Old Man Su, “…”
Looking at Su Xiaoliu, I feel that this son is actually still a fool.
"Don't talk nonsense!" Su Lao San glared at Su Xiaoliu. "If someone heard it, they would think you were cursing the emperor and putting him in danger."
Su Xiaoliu chuckled, "It's not that no one else can hear..."
"Brother Su! Brother Su... this is incredible!"
Before Su Xiaoliu could finish his words, the village chief came running in noisily.
Su Xiaoliu immediately closed his mouth like a clam shell.
"What's the matter?" Old Man Su looked at the village chief and asked.
The village chief wiped the sweat from his sweaty face and said breathlessly, "This is terrible! They're entering... entering the village..."
"What did you mean by entering the village? You better catch your breath first." Old man Su said.
In my heart, I roughly guessed something.
