The whole family traveled through ancient times to start a new business
Chapter 41 Patience
The Zhang family's momentum dropped when they saw Su Andong. After all, he was a man of honor, and they didn't want to offend Su Andong.
The Zhang family felt that keeping a sister with a bad reputation at home would not be good for Su An Dong. Scholars value reputation, and Su An Dong would agree to let Su Yi Tong marry into the Zhang family for the sake of his reputation. I didn't expect Su An Dong to have this attitude.
Zhang Dengke stepped forward and bowed to Su An Dong, saying shamelessly: "Third brother, please help me and Yi Tong..."
Su An Dong interrupted Zhang Dengke and said, "Don't call me Third Brother. I feel sick when you call me that. You are a scholar, but you are full of lies. How can you take the imperial examination if you have no integrity at all? You might as well make up stories at home! Don't mention my sister's name anymore. It's an insult to my sister when you say her name. People like you should stop dreaming. My sister will not marry you."
Su Yitong, who was sitting in the house, couldn't hold back any more when she heard Su Anton's words, and tears came out of her eyes.
Zhang Dengke was about to say something, but Su Andong interrupted him with a wave of his hand: "Get out of my house now, and don't dirty my land."
As he said this, he signaled the people who came back with him to drive the Zhang family out. Not only the Su brothers came back, but also the people from Nanxi Village who worked with Su An Dong. There were four people who followed to burn charcoal, four people who were found to work for the family, and the in-laws of the Su family.
Those who worked behind Su Andong were all honest people in the village. They admired Su Andong very much. A scholar was not only smart, but also humble. Working with these rough people, he was very approachable.
It can be said that after Su Anton's signal, these people started to move, and directly drove the Zhang family into the yard, throwing all the things they brought out of the door.
Zhang Dengke wanted to step forward to argue, but Su An Dong pushed him back and said, "I warn you, if you don't want to make a mortal enemy of my Su family, it's best to retreat. My sister will never marry you."
Su An Dong lowered his voice and continued to threaten: "I warn you, shut up when you go back. If anything bad about my sister comes out of your house, I will make sure you can't take the imperial examination in your life. I mean what I say, if you don't believe me, just try it."
Zhang Dengke could tell from Su An Dong's expression that he was not just talking. The Zhang family could never have imagined that the Su family would go to such lengths for a daughter.
The Zhang family thought that it was just a daughter, and they could just marry her off. Why bother with so much trouble for a daughter? If the Zhang family had known that the Su family would do this, they would never have come to propose marriage so openly. They thought it would be an easy matter, but they didn't expect it to turn out like this.
Su An Dong stood at the door of his house and said to everyone: "My Su family refuses to marry the Zhang family. Please be a witness. From now on, my Su family and the Zhang family will have no contact, and we will have nothing to do with each other's weddings and funerals."
Su Anton knew very well that the Zhang family had openly proposed marriage today, and many people saw it along the way. Adding to the commotion just now, it was obviously impossible not to affect Su Yitong.
Instead of hiding it, it is better to say it clearly. Refusing to marry means refusing to marry. Su An Dong felt that the person who was rejected was more shameful. It was just that in this world, women were always harsher. But so what, his sister, Su An Dong, would be protected by him.
Seeing that there was no hope for the marriage, and that the Su family was outnumbered and powerful, it was obvious that they would not gain any advantage, so the Zhang family left in disgrace.
After driving away the Zhang family, Zhou Lizheng and others also said goodbye one by one. Su An Dong also asked the people who were helping with the work to go back to work. The Su family members stayed in the yard.
The people who were helping with the work saw that the Su family members had something to say, so they all tactfully went back to work.
Li Hongmei looked at Su Yitong with red eyes, and felt very uncomfortable. She couldn't help but think of her son. If her daughter was bullied like this, what would she do if no one stood up for her? But she turned around and looked at her brother-in-law, and then at the boys in the family. She felt that such a family would not watch their daughter being bullied, and she felt relieved.
When only the Su family was left, Su Zhihao said without hesitation: "Dad, I'll go beat him up! I guarantee that he won't be able to get out of bed for half a year, and I don't even know who beat him up."
Su An Dong: "No, if he gets beaten now, others will definitely think of our family. It's not easy for our family to attract attention again. If you want to beat him, wait for a while."
Su Yitong, who was standing aside, looked at the two people talking seriously about beating someone up, and felt a little amused.
Su Yuanyuan said unhappily, "It will take some time. We can't let him get into trouble! Whenever I think of that face, I want to hit him."
Several other children also echoed.
Old Lady Su: "No, you can't hit him yet. A gentleman's revenge is never too late, but a little impatience can ruin a great plan."
Su Yuanyuan on the side said disapprovingly: "I am not a gentleman, I don't want to endure for ten years. I just want him to be unlucky now."
Su Yitong finally couldn't hold back her laughter.
Su Zhixuan, the youngest boy in the family, whispered, "Did grandma say all the words she knows?" Although his voice was not loud, everyone in the room heard it.
Old Mrs. Su was amused by her grandson: "You little bastard, you are making fun of your grandmother!"
At this point, the atmosphere in the room was no longer so gloomy.
Su An Dong looked at Su Yi Tong with red eyes and said, "Little sister, don't worry. Our family will never marry you off casually. Reputation can be reversed. If I, your third brother, pass the imperial examination in the future, your reputation will naturally improve. Besides, even if you don't marry, your third brother can support you."
The other brothers of the Su family also said: They can afford to raise a younger sister.
Su Yitong was very touched by what Su Anton and the other brothers said. She was lucky to have such brothers.
The reason why Su An Dong said this was because what happened today made Su An Dong determined to take the imperial examination. If he said that he had no choice before, he was not very willing in his heart. What happened today made him completely understand the importance of the imperial examination. If he was a juren today, the Zhang family would not dare to do such a thing.
If I want my daughter to have more choices, to better protect her and this family, I must become strong.
The Su family listened to what Su Andong, a juren and jinshi, said. Some of them understood, while some did not, but it didn't matter.
Old Lady Su said to Su Yitong again: "Today's matter, if you meet someone you care about, then it is not your good match. It is a good thing not to marry such a short-sighted and rigid family who cares about this matter. You will always meet someone who is destined for you, so we are not in a hurry. And, don't worry, mother will not force you to marry. As your brothers said, our family can afford it."
Su Yitong nodded and said, "Thank you, mother. I will listen to you."
Su Yitong didn't say anything about not getting married. After what happened today, if she didn't get married, wouldn't it confirm what the Zhang family said, and that would ruin the family's reputation.
