Chapter 36 Zhou returns home
Sun Tu was also shocked when he heard what Sun Dayong said. This was indeed an angle he had never thought of. He thought about his relationship with Ming Ge'er. If the lady used Ming Ge'er to threaten him, he would definitely not care. After all, he already had the obedient Jing'er.
Sun Tu didn't know at the moment that his obedient Jing'er was also angry with him and Zhou, and would not be so considerate in the future.
"Uncle, I was thinking too simply." Sun Tu suddenly felt as if he had been doing something stupid, which was why things were getting worse and worse.
"So you know what you have to do in the future?" Originally, this kind of thing was not something he, as the eldest uncle, should talk about. But he took one look at Zhou's expression and knew that he couldn't rely on her. It was good enough that she didn't cause trouble for Jing'er.
Sun Tu felt like he was going to throw in the towel. The situation was completely out of control. He didn't know how to end it. He knew that his wife might not be able to be coaxed back, so he wanted to make arrangements with his mother and sister first.
He also knew that he was a selfish person, but he didn't have much to begin with, so he was afraid of losing it.
"I don't know what to do in this situation." Sun Tu answered truthfully.
"Have you noticed that Ming Ge'er is not close to you?"
"I found out. Ming'er is my nephew's second son. He has been with my wife since he was a child. My mother and I don't control him much." After Sun Tu finished speaking, he looked at his uncle cautiously, fearing that he would beat him again.
"Did someone replace your brain with yours in Yuanjing these past few years? He's your son. It doesn't matter whether he's close to your mother or not. To put it bluntly, your mother probably won't be able to enjoy the happiness that their generation had. But what about you? From now on, you can only rely on Jing'er, not Ming'er and Yang'er?"
Sun Dayong really wanted to beat him up again. He was really so unreasonable.
Sun Tu lowered his head guiltily. He had no time to take care of the children in the past few years. He was on duty all day and had to deal with the affairs of the inner house after work. He was exhausted every day. He always felt that it would not be too late to take care of it when he had time in the future.
Sun Tu thought hard about when he realized Ming'er wasn't close to either him or his mother. It must have been after this conflict! Ming'er only cared about his mother, not even asking about him or his grandmother. And then there was the way he looked at him, without joy or expectation, as if he were looking at any random stranger.
Sun Tu wasn't that stupid. He had three sons, but only half of them were his own. He still wanted to change. "Nephew, I know I was wrong! I will change in the future. What Jing'er has, Ming'er and Yang'er will have too."
"Didn't you give money to Zhou just now and ask her to give the money to Wang Xiaoyi and let Wang Xiaoyi go back with us..." Before Sun Dayong finished speaking, Zhou immediately interrupted Sun Dayong.
This affected her life after returning to the countryside, so she was unwilling to give in and firmly disagreed.
Sun Dayong slammed his cane on the ground and said angrily: "No one asked for your opinion!"
"Uncle, should we discuss this further..."
"What are you discussing? Your mother can sell her jewelry after she returns to her hometown and live a good life. Otherwise, if you leave Wang Xiaoyi here, how are you going to repair the relationship between you and your wife?" Sun Dayong said helplessly. He really didn't want to get involved in these trivial matters.
Sun Tu looked at his mother again. Zhou Shi, in her heart, did not want to take it out. But Sun Dayong looked at her with a fierce look, and Zhou Shi knew the situation. Otherwise, if she returned, her mother-in-law would punish her. So Zhou Shi could only reluctantly take out the two hundred taels of silver.
Sun Dayong took a look and thought, two hundred taels, should be enough. If Wang Xiaoyi is smart.
"After I take your mother back, you don't have to worry about her. We won't abuse her. Don't mess around with these things in the future. The most important thing is to listen to your wife. Even if she doesn't forgive you for the time being, as long as you have a good attitude, we will definitely be able to live together in the long run."
Don't let Sun Yue act recklessly again. If you indulge her, you're harming her. Your mother is the same. If you had restrained her, she wouldn't have dared to act so recklessly, and you wouldn't have all these troubles now. And your mother could still be a peaceful old lady in the mansion, worrying about nothing, enjoying the comfort of her grandchildren.
If you don't have the ability to protect them, don't foster their ambitions. Otherwise, you're not being filial, you're harming others and yourself."
After Sun Dayong finished speaking, he ignored Sun Tu's reaction and turned to Zhou and said, "Let's go! Follow us back! Don't bother with this anymore."
Zhou could only wipe her tears as she followed Sun Dayong outside. As she walked along the roads she usually walked, she felt a little regretful. If she hadn't caused all this trouble, would she still be living the same happy life as before? People just don't have the luxury of contentment.
Sun Tu and Sun Yue followed their uncle and the clan members, seeing Zhou and Wang Xiaoyi off. Only when they were out of sight did they turn around and slowly walk back to the mansion.
"Little sister, you better behave yourself in the mansion from now on and don't mess with your sister-in-law. Otherwise, I won't be able to protect you."
Sun Yue nodded immediately, "Brother, don't worry! I won't make a fuss about Mom's situation anymore. I'll just stay here for two or three years, and then I'll find a reliable family for me to marry into."
Meanwhile, Zhao Lingmeng had just gotten up with Sun Qijing and Sun Qiming, and was leisurely having breakfast with them in the main room. Zhao Lingmeng had no intention of hiding anything from them, and while they ate, she asked Dongmian to tell her about what had happened that morning.
Hibernation also reported the truth, without any intention of exaggerating, and was very fair.
"Your great-grandfather is a wise man." Zhao Lingmeng listened slowly and smiled at them.
Sun Qiming thought about the man who hugged him last night and agreed with his mother. "I also think my great-grandfather is not bad. He is a smart man."
When Zhao Lingmeng heard what Sun Qiming said, she found it funny. She was just a little kid, but she was praising others for being smart.
Zhao Lingmeng smiled and pinched Sun Qiming's face. "How can you know what's smart or not at your age?"
Sun Qiming was angry about being looked down upon by his mother and snorted.
Zhao Lingmeng had figured out Sun Qiming's temper these days. He was a bit arrogant, so he acted like this. Yun Yao knew he wasn't angry, so she ignored him. Instead, she looked at Sun Qijing and asked, "Jing'er, why are you unhappy?"
Sun Qijing looked at his mother and hesitated for a moment before speaking: "Although Dad and Grandma have selfish motives this time, they have indeed been very kind to me in the past. I'm afraid that Grandma will suffer when she returns."
