After Su Tong arrived at his grandparents' house, the lively group of people suddenly stopped talking when they saw him coming, and their eyes were complex and diverse.

Some were sympathetic, some were there to watch the fun, and some were even there to make fun of it.

Su Tong felt a little regretful. He thought that the old man was old, so he just came to see him for the last time. But after seeing these relatives, he felt like his brain was about to explode.

"The third sister is here. This must be Tongtong. You've grown into a big girl in the blink of an eye. Come and sit down." An old lady with a kind face stood up, pulled Su Tong to the chair next to her with a smile, and asked a few questions with concern.

"Did you have a smooth journey? Did you encounter any problems? You said you were the same. Since your dad is coming back, why don't you just take his car? This way you can save some money on the fare."

As soon as he finished speaking, a woman in a dress with a chubby doll in her arms rolled her eyes towards the corner.

Su Zhigang, who was standing next to him, wiped the sweat from his head and was about to explain when he was interrupted by Su Tong.

"I haven't been back to my hometown for a long time, so I bought a slow train and wanted to see the scenery along the way."

Although everyone understands that this explanation is a bit far-fetched, some people still accept it. After all, it would be embarrassing for everyone to break up the family.

Grandma Su just brought over a plate of candies and asked Su Tong to eat them, then ran off to greet other guests.

In fact, the reason why the whole family got together today is not only because the old man wanted to see his family, but also because he is going to celebrate his 70th birthday and they wanted to take advantage of this time to hold a grand celebration and let the whole family get together.

Grandpa Su and Grandma Su had a total of five children in their lifetime, three sons and two daughters. The eldest is the most promising one now. I heard that he is now a cadre at the section level.

Although the second son is a teacher, he has become the principal of a local primary school with his own abilities and means over the years, and he is very popular wherever he goes.

Su Zhigang lives a little worse off than his two brothers. In the past few years, he did some small business and made quite a lot of money. In recent years, he has been relying on the connections of his two brothers to get by, but the money he earns is enough for his family to live on.

There were several cousins beside Su Tong. His cousin pulled him aside and whispered, "You are in trouble. Your stepmother is obviously not someone you can easily mess with. She showed off her power to grandma as soon as she entered the house.

But don't be afraid. When dealing with a woman like this, you must not get angry. At most, you can make a big fuss and embarrass everyone together."

Su Tong shook his head. "I don't live with them. I haven't even seen them for two or three years. And today is the first time I've seen this stepmother. There's no possibility of contact in the future."

My cousin was shocked. "What do you mean you don't live with your biological father? Then you live with your mother. That's not right. I heard she remarried, didn't she?"

"I live alone." Su Tong said lightly, but the look of his cousin next to him changed immediately. After all, they were relatives, and seeing her cousin being bullied like this, the cousin felt bad.

"Your father is too partial. After all, you are his biological daughter. Even if he remarries, he can't ignore his own child.

No, I have to talk to my father about this and ask him to teach your father a lesson. There is no elder in our Su family who abandons his own children. "

Su Tong thanked his cousin for her kindness, but shook his head, "Don't worry, I have lived independently for a long time now, and it's good not to live with them. I can breathe the air of freedom.

If I have to live with them, we can get together for big and small things, so as not to embarrass them."

My cousin was so angry that her mouth was about to pout, "It's because you have a good temper and don't want to argue with them. If it were me, I would definitely teach them a lesson.

If you want to remarry, you have to ask my opinion. If I am unhappy, everyone else will be unhappy with me."

Su Tong didn't think so much about it. Mainly because he didn't want to focus his energy on so many difficult things. Anyway, there was no feelings between them, so it was better to leave early and go home early. It was quite meaningless to torture each other. As long as he lived well, it was better than anything else.

Several younger generations were talking about things at school. Two cousins were studying for a master's degree and would graduate next year. Even their future career plans had already been arranged by their parents.

My cousin is in her third year of college, but she has already made plans for her future career. She will go straight to work after graduation and her future will be smooth sailing.

"Tongtong, I see you have been sitting here for a long time, why don't you say anything? Don't be restrained. This is your home after all. If you get wronged somewhere else in the future, you can always come back. We are all family and we should help each other." A distant cousin suddenly looked at the book boy with teasing in her eyes.

Su Tong also didn't understand what was going on with these relatives. They were all family members by blood, so was it really necessary for them to watch the fun in other people's families?

"Thank you, aunt. I'm not reserved. I'm just a quiet person." Su Tong smiled faintly.

Zhang Lili, who was standing next to her, held her child in her arms, suppressing her impatience and pretending to be a caring parent.

"Tongtong, although I'm not your biological mother, since I'm married to you, we are a family. Although your mother doesn't want you anymore, your father and I will still take care of you."

The cousin next to her could no longer suppress her anger and stood up, "How dare you say you're taking care of Tongtong? If you really were going to take care of Tongtong, why would you let her live alone?

I think you are just like the vicious and cruel stepmother in the TV series, saying one thing but thinking another.”

Zhang Lili was unhappy. "Who said I didn't take care of the child? At least the old house was transferred to the child, and even the savings were given to the child. Isn't this enough? Do you want us to give him all our gold and silver?"

It was fine before, as Old Su only had this one daughter, but now he has a son, so we have to make some plans for the child."

Grandma Su frowned slightly and looked at Su Tong next to her, "This... You are a girl, why do you need a house? If you have a house, men will think you have two hearts, and you will never be able to marry into a good family in the future."

Su Tong looked at his grandmother in surprise. After all, she had received several years of education and had worked in the unit for so many years. Now she was a retired cadre. How could she still have such feudal ideas?

"If that's what grandma said, in ancient times, when people married off their daughters, what was the dowry house worth?"

Grandma Su looked unhappy and she no longer liked Su Tong. Grandpa Su next to her coughed twice.

"Okay, today is a good day, let's stop quarreling over trivial matters.

Tongtong, since you live alone now, you should take good care of yourself and don't run around. Especially since you will be taking the college entrance examination in two years, you should learn from your brothers and sisters and strive to get into a good university in the future."
