I just want to die of old age

Su Baozhu also wanted Su Dong to take the imperial examination so that he could provide her with support.

The people in the other two rooms all seemed to have the same concerns, but in fact they had different thoughts in their minds.

Three bedrooms.

Su Sanzhu was of course full of worries. After all, he had no son, and his nephew was his greatest support. But since Su Dong was unreliable, he could only rely on Sunan.

But the fourth brother is a smart man. Will he really let Sunan take care of him in his old age?

Su Sanzhu had no confidence at all and beat Song violently that night.

He vented all his anger on Song, blaming her for not being able to conceive and only giving birth to worthless and money-losing babies.

Song did not dare to resent her husband and could only endure the beatings obediently and work hard without complaint. At the same time, she became increasingly displeased with the five daughters she had given birth to.

The eldest daughter of the third house felt sorry for Song when she saw this, so she stood in front of her and took the beating for her. In the end, her body was covered with bruises.

She blamed herself in her heart, wondering why she didn't have a boy, so that the five sisters wouldn't have to suffer so much.

Four rooms.

Su Sizhu's eyes flickered, and he seemed to be thinking about something. The ambition that he had suppressed before was stirring again and could no longer be stopped.

Now that the eldest son, Su Dong, is useless and the second son has already split up, there are only four sons left. Su Nan is extremely intelligent and if he can be sent to academy, he will definitely bring honor to the family.

Little Ye paced the room cheerfully, saying with great joy, "Su Dong's leg is lame, so my son will have a bright future."

Su Nan's eyes rolled around, and the calculation between his eyebrows was very similar to his father's.

"Dad, I also want to go to the academy to study."

Sunan wanted to be a glamorous scholar. He didn't want to work in the fields, nor did he want to be a businessman. Among the four classes of scholars, farmers, merchants and artisans, scholars had the highest status.

Su Sizhu beamed with joy and said, "My son is promising. He will surely pass the imperial examination and become a scholar for me in the future."

Su Nan raised his head proudly and said, "Based on my talent for studying, it's no problem for me to be the top scholar."

"well……."

Su Sizhu had never been so happy. He was full of expectations, but he had always been suppressed by the eldest wife's family, and he could only bury his inner resentment deep in his heart.

But this time, no one could stop the rise of the four families.

The Su family, who had lived in harmony and happiness in their previous life, now has a huge rift in their hearts.

Now we are just maintaining superficial harmony, but one day we will fight to the death.

The next day, the morning was just getting light.

Su Yuzhu and her elder and second brothers rode in a ox cart to the county town.

Many villagers who were going to the county town to attend the market were already sitting on the ox cart.

The two brothers frowned and squeezed in, leaving a seat in the middle for Su Yuzhu and considerately placing a soft cushion there.

The aunts and uncles in the village were all whispering to each other, saying that the Su family had been in a state of excitement recently.

Especially the division of the second branch of the family made headlines in the village. Everyone was talking about it, and most of the elderly people did not have a good face towards the second branch.

Most of these old people are quite traditional. They believe that a family should live together in harmony. If the family splits up, they will think that the children are unfilial.

The imperial court governed the country with filial piety and always paid more attention to filial piety.

Fortunately, those sitting on the ox cart today are all uncles, aunts, or young people.

Otherwise, when Su Yuzhu and her family got in the car, they would drown her in saliva.

They all chatted in a flurry, full of curiosity.

"Why did your second branch split up separately?"

"Could it be that there is a conflict with the Su family's eldest wife?"

"Why does Yuzhu have such thick gauze wrapped around her head?"

"Why are you bringing your sister to the county town so early in the morning?"

Su Yuzhu hasn't answered yet.

The two brothers took the lead in performing. They were eloquent and complained to the villagers together.

"Uncle and aunt, there's really no other way. Our family didn't get anything, and we have to buy everything. We have no choice but to go to the county town."

"Little sister, you should go to the clinic to change the dressing on your head wound, otherwise it will easily leave sequelae."

"I never thought Su Baozhu was so unruly and willful, and treated my cousin so cruelly. My heart is chilled."

"My sister is weak and often has to do all kinds of housework in the Su family, but Su Baozhu has never even washed the dishes. She is a real young lady."

Susi and Subei's eyes rolled, and they immediately began to make up stories, most of which were adapted from real events.

All the sufferings that the second wife had endured in the Sufang were complained about. There was no such thing as a family disgrace that should not be made public.

He also subtly accused Su Baozhu of causing his sister to be injured and unconscious.

This time he caused his elder brother to break his leg. He doesn't look like a lucky star at all, but rather like a jinx.

He also slightly complained about the reason for the separation. It turned out that he was dissatisfied with Su Yuzhu's injury and that she could not do heavy work, and he also had to pay for her medical expenses, so he kicked the second wife's family out.

A wise man in the village said, "This isn't just a contradiction; it almost cost someone their life. Baozhu is such a cruel girl."

"It was Baozhu who caused Erya to fall on her head. She was unconscious for a long time and almost lost her life."

"Old Man Su's family is so cruel that they are unwilling to even pay for seeing a doctor. No wonder Erzhu, such an honest man, got angry."

"Is this true? You're so cruel. After all, we're your granddaughter, connected by blood."

"Isn't this retribution? I heard that God couldn't bear it, so he punished Su Dong. Oh... Su Dong is really unlucky. It is said that his leg can no longer walk."

"I heard that he can't have sex. That place is completely unusable. Oh my god... How is he going to get married in the future?"

"Then I have to go back and talk to him, but don't let it bring disaster to the other girls."

"The eldest wife is like having no sons, and it's quite pitiful."

"Can he still take the imperial examination in this condition?"

"Of course not. I've never heard of a lame man being an official. This would bring shame to the imperial court."

"I heard that Su Baozhu was responsible for Su Dong's leg injury this time. She was the one who insisted on pestering Su Dong to pick some Ganoderma lucidum, and ended up causing her brother to break his leg."

"What lucky star? I think it's a jinx. Last time, it caused the second wife's daughter to fall on her head, and this time it caused my dear eldest brother to fall on his leg. He's really unlucky."

"I think some of these lucky stars are just boasting. If they were really that lucky, would the second and third wives have to tighten their belts?"

"That's true."

"No wonder the family split up. Yuzhu really suffered a lot this time."

"Old Man Su is so cruel. He usually looks kind and treats the children fairly and justly, but I didn't expect him to be so biased. He even had the child unconscious for a whole night, and he still refused to call a doctor."

"A black heart will bring bad luck. You three siblings are all good children. You will definitely bring honor to our family in the future."

A discerning person in the village praised that the child of the second wife was the best among the four wives, because he was outstanding in appearance, and was also well-behaved and filial.

……

Su Yuzhu listened to the explosive news in silence, with a slight curl of her red lips.
