Chapter 876: It doesn’t matter
Su Zhengyan didn't expect that Su Laoer would reveal the Su family's intentions in just a few words.
I couldn't help but feel a little unnatural.
Then, he said with some embarrassment: "Brother Su, you may not know that, let alone a mere scholar, even among those who passed the imperial examination, there are countless people who are still sitting on the bench. It is possible that they will never get a good official position in their entire lives, and in the end they have to be forgotten by the world!"
"If our old master hadn't been so broad-minded and wanted to support future generations, why would he have sent me to travel the world to continue the family tree? Could it be that our Su family has been passed down for hundreds of years and still needs to rely on young people with no foundation to support us? What a joke!"
"What do you think the capital is? It's full of royal relatives, aristocratic families, noble families, and important officials of the court... Take your brother for example. Not to mention that he's just a small-time scholar now, even if he could become the top scholar, without the support of a powerful family, he wouldn't be given a high position..."
"If he's not valued, it's because he's incompetent!"
As the words came out, Old Man Su strode in.
"Dad!" Several brothers of the Su family shouted.
Old Man Su ignored his sons and looked directly at Su Zhengyan.
"I know why you are here." said Old Man Su.
As for how he knew it, it was his little daughter who told him.
The little girl didn't say much, just said that the Su family, a century-old family in the capital, had someone come to continue the family tree.
Then, Old Man Su's face turned gloomy.
Like a sign before a storm.
Old Mrs. Su looked at her husband worriedly, and shook his hand in front of her little girl.
Then, Old Man Su's expression eased a little.
Although the weather didn't turn from cloudy to sunny, looking at my wife and then looking at my little daughter, I felt much more at ease.
"Our Su family in Daliushu Village has nothing to do with your Su family in the capital!" Old Man Su said bluntly, "There's no need to continue that damned family tree! As for my son's future, you don't need to worry about it!"
Su Zhengyan: “…”
stunned!
He never expected to hear such rude words!
Originally, he was able to come to such a small mountain village because Su Laowu was the top scorer in the imperial examination, so he was humble enough to give the Su family enough face.
Unexpectedly, none of the Su brothers were grateful, and the old man in the Su family was even more hateful!
For a family, how sacred is it to continue the family tree?
The brothers of the Su family were also stunned.
Although Su Laoer pointed out Su Zhengyan's true intention, to be honest, he did not feel any aversion to Su Zhengyan's actions.
What he said just now was nothing more than seeking truth from facts.
After all, the Su family in Beijing wants to find some potential stocks, and it is a mutually beneficial thing to continue the family tree and give them support.
Although the style of the Su family in Beijing is a bit utilitarian, it is also understandable.
Especially for the candidates who came from poor families, the support of the Su family in the capital was indeed of great benefit and a great thing.
However, none of the Su family brothers had expected that their father would be so...disgusted with this matter!
No! I should say disgust!
Why do you hate it?
The Su family brothers looked at each other in confusion.
However, everyone noticed that something was wrong with his father.
I'm afraid there's something else going on here.
"You're truly a worthless peasant!" Su Zhengyan came to his senses and flew into a rage, saying, "Such vulgar language! Do you think our Su family is begging you to continue the marriage?"
Su Zhengyan slammed the table.
"Our Su family has always been respectful to the virtuous and humble, and has passed down poetry and literature from generation to generation, so we gave you an opportunity and wanted to promote your son! But I didn't expect that you would be so ungrateful!"
Su Zhengyan became more and more angry as he spoke, and couldn't help but start to challenge.
"I want to see if your son can rise to prominence without the support of our Su family?!" Su Zhengyan shouted at Old Man Su.
"Whether my son can rise to prominence is not your concern!" Old Man Su's voice was definitely louder than Su Zhengyan's. "Boss, please get him out!"
Just kick people out!
Su Zhengyan: “…”
Su Zhengyan was so angry that his face turned red and his neck became thick.
He had never been treated like this in his life!
Even in the capital, he was held high because of his identity as a member of the Su family.
After listening to Old Man Su's instructions, Boss Su made a gesture of invitation to Su Zhengyan.
"Hmph!" Su Zhengyan flicked his sleeves and strode out.
"Master..."
"Master..."
A group of little kids, carrying small school bags and shouting, ran in from the gate.
Behind the little kids were a few older boys.
The little kids are chubby and the boys are well-dressed.
Especially the little ones ran too fast, and Little Twelve ran directly into Su Zhengyan.
Su Zhengyan is used to a life of luxury.
Although I can't say that my steps are weak, my lower body is not very stable either.
Now, he was bumped by Little Twelve like a calf and almost fell down on his butt.
Xiao Twelve bumped into someone, got startled, and stopped quickly.
When a group of little kids saw a stranger coming to their house, they all stopped.
"Uncle, I'm sorry." Little Twelve looked up at Su Zhengyan and apologized sincerely. He had very good family education.
Su Zhengyan: “…”
She was so angry that her face turned red and her neck was thick. She wanted to yell loudly, but when she saw that she was wearing a small bachelor's gown and carrying a small little boy on her back, she swallowed the words that were on her lips.
As the eldest brother, Da Pan quickly said, "Excuse me, uncle. My brother is young and very naughty. Are you okay?"
Su Zhengyan glanced at Da Pan, then at the other grandchildren of the Su family, and found that they were all wearing the same style of clothes.
Moreover, everyone was carrying a school bag.
Su Zhengyan was a little surprised.
Could it be that... these children are all from the Su family? Are they all studying?
The Su family has a large population, comparable to my own.
Su Zhengyan rubbed his stomach, said nothing, and continued to walk out angrily.
However, when I reached the gate, I couldn't help but look back.
Then, it was discovered that Old Man Su was surrounded by a group of little rascals.
"Master, the teacher said, let us listen to his story..."
"Master, the Master also said..."
A group of little kids surrounded Old Man Su, talking about the homework assigned by the teacher.
When Old Man Su faced a group of little grandchildren, a smile immediately appeared on his face.
"Okay... I'll tell you a story..." Old Man Su looked kind.
He has both sons and daughters and many grandchildren in his life. What else could he be dissatisfied with?
As for the Su family in the capital, it has nothing to do with him!
"Master Sixteen, why are you here?"
As Su Zhengyan stepped out of the Su family's gate, he ran into a housekeeper of the Su family in Beijing.
When the housekeeper saw Su Zhengyan, her face was full of surprise.
