Su Ping'an knew very well that his wife had taken the children to his parents' house for a good meal.
He didn't think there was anything wrong with that. What belonged to his parents was his, wasn't it?
Why shouldn't his wife and children eat and drink a little?
However, after only a short while, he heard someone calling him.
Su Ping'an listened carefully. It sounded like Xiao Chuanzi's voice.
Su Ping'an looked at Xiao Chuanzi, who was standing in the yard, in surprise. He said his father wanted him to go over.
For some reason, he instinctively felt something was wrong.
What was going on?
Could it be that his wife and children had caused trouble?
It shouldn't be, right?
Although Tian Xiaohe was not well-behaved, her parents had never said anything, no matter how much trouble she caused.
"Uncle Ping'an, hurry up. Grandpa Changjiu is waiting."
After Xiao Chuanzi finished speaking, he ran away in a flash.
Su Ping'an originally wanted to ask Xiao Chuanzi what had happened, but Xiao Chuanzi had already disappeared without a trace.
Su Ping'an had to close the main gate and follow him out.
The house where their family of four lived was a house left behind by the educated youths in the early years.
After the family division, his father paid to buy it.
To buy the courtyards where the educated youths lived for his two sons, all the family's money was spent.
At the time, he felt his elder brother was unhappy, after all, it was good to keep that money.
They weren't without a place to live, so why did they have to live in the educated youth courtyard?
But his father was as determined as a cast-iron wok, completely ignoring them and insisting on spending all the money to buy these two courtyards.
It was said that not only was all the money spent, but they also borrowed two hundred yuan from Li Zhuzi.
Lost in thought, Su Ping'an quickly arrived at the village chief's house.
Seeing the many people gathered around, Su Ping'an was startled.
Could it be that his father was in trouble?
Su Ping'an walked over quickly, only to see his father standing in the yard with a dark expression.
Tian Xiaohe stood beside him, crying her eyes out.
His two sons also stood there crying and making a fuss.
In short, there was no peace in the entire courtyard.
"Dad, what's wrong? Why are they crying, the three of them?"
Instinctively, Su Ping'an felt that his wife and children must have been bullied.
As Su Ping'an spoke, he was clearly unhappy with his own father.
Hearing his son's words, Su Changjiu suddenly felt relieved. This was resentment towards him.
Forget it, this son couldn't be saved.
Why was he still foolishly holding onto hope?
"Since you're here, take your wife and children and go back. Don't come to my door again. I'll pretend I don't have a son like you."
Su Ping'an couldn't believe it. He thought he had misheard.
How could he pretend not to have him as a son?
That wouldn't do.
"Dad, what are you saying? I am your son, and these two are your grandsons. No matter what you say, this is an unchangeable fact."
Su Changjiu snorted coldly, "Say it again, I don't have a son like you!"
Hearing Su Changjiu's words, Su Ping'an felt that his father was not joking; it seemed he was serious.
He was immediately displeased.
"Dad, I don't like what you're saying. I know you're biased towards my elder brother, but it's not like this."
"Now that you have wealthy relatives, you only think of my elder brother and don't even want me, your son?"
Xie Nan was stunned. Was this wealthy relative referring to herself?
Was this a case of being shot while lying down?
Su Changjiu stared at his son in disbelief.
Were these human words?
Who was he biased towards?
The family's assets had all been squandered by Su Ping'an and his wife. Now they were saying he was biased towards the eldest son?
How could these two say such a thing?
Did they have no conscience?
Su Changjiu stared at his son for a long time, but finally hardened his heart and said, "It's fine if you think that way."
Su Ping'an felt disheartened. No wonder Xiao He always said their parents were biased. He didn't believe it before.
It turned out to be true, and his father had admitted it himself.
"From now on, Su Ping'an is not my son. I, Su Changjiu, only have one son, Su Chang'an, and one daughter, Su Xiaocao."
After saying this, Su Changjiu remembered that his daughter was no longer his either.
He glanced at Xie Nan. Xie Nan just lowered her eyes, seemingly unwilling to get involved in other people's family affairs.
"Dad, what did I do? Why are you treating our family like this?"
Only now did Su Ping'an realize that his father was serious this time.
"Su Ping'an, speak with a clear conscience. Who squandered the family's assets? I believe I have treated you and your wife well, but how have you and your wife treated us, your old parents?"
Su Changjiu was filled with disappointment.
Perhaps it was his excessive indulgence of Su Ping'an that made Su Ping'an so reckless.
Hearing these words, Su Ping'an hesitated for a moment.
It seemed the family's money had indeed been squandered by him and Tian Xiaohe. Su Dan Novel Network
But Xiao He said that Dad had been the team leader for most of his life and was still the village chief, so the family must have a lot of money.
It was impossible that they only had the little bit given to him.
"Second child, take your wife and children and go. Whether your family prospers or declines in the future has nothing to do with me."
After speaking, Su Changjiu ignored Su Ping'an and turned to go back inside.
Tian Xiaohe was not having it. Was he just kicking them out like this?
Why?
"This won't do. How can you just abandon us? What did our family do?"
Tian Xiaohe bared her teeth and yelled at Su Changjiu.
Her demeanor was no different from that of a madwoman.
"Su Ping'an, look, this is your wife."
"If you want to continue being my son, divorce this woman and find a better one. Otherwise, your family can live your own lives."
Su Changjiu, as a father-in-law, did not speak to Tian Xiaohe, his daughter-in-law, but only to Su Ping'an.
Su Ping'an didn't know what had happened before he arrived, but at this moment, he felt that the matter might have been caused by Tian Xiaohe.
"Dad, if Xiao He has done anything wrong, you can just say it nicely. Why be like this? We are all family."
Su Ping'an still wanted to salvage the situation, but Su Changjiu did not engage at all.
"You decide for yourself. Don't come to me before you divorce. If you don't divorce, then your family should live your lives properly!"
Divorce was naturally impossible. Tian Xiaohe had given him two sons, which was a merit. Such a wife could not be divorced.
"Dad, even if Xiao He has many faults, she gave birth to two sons for our family," Su Ping'an said quickly.
"Those are your sons!" Su Changjiu snorted coldly.
As for grandsons, they should be sensible and capable. Like these two who were raised like this, it's better to have none!
Su Changjiu returned to his room and never came out again.
Su Ping'an didn't want to leave. Others advised him to calm down first and come back after the village chief's anger had subsided.
Su Ping'an thought it made sense, but Tian Xiaohe was still being unreasonable.
