After a pause, Grandpa Du continued, “All these years, you knew that even if Daxi couldn’t give birth to a son, he never once mentioned divorcing Daxi. How could he let Daxi down? Besides, there was nothing to be unhappy about except that one thing. Isn’t it a lifelong dream to hold a grandson in your arms? You of all people should know where we are coming from. We understand your anger. Therefore, we came with Shanqiang to apologize to you.”
Grandpa Du sighed. “Hongguo is getting old. If her parents divorce, how can she marry into a good family in the future? Don’t think about everyone else, just think about Hongguo. Let’s just let this matter go, okay?” At the end of his sentence, he had a fawning look on his face.
Without waiting for others to say anything, Grandpa Du spoke again, “When Shanqiangs concubine gives us a son, we’ll immediately kick her out. We’ve already made an agreement with Shanqiang-”
“Father, where do you-”
Du Shanqiang wanted to say no, but Grandpa Du immediately shouted, “Shut
Du Shanqiang did not dare to speak.
Grandpa Du smiled and continued to speak kindly to Xue Da, “No matter what, Daxi needs a son to support him. Otherwise, when she gets old, she won’t have anyone to rely on. You see, although our family’s life isn’t that good, we at least have a son who can be filial to us and treat us well. Aren’t you also enjoying the blessings of your son and grandson now? You should understand this principle. When the time comes, we’ll see that son as Daxi’s son. This is better than adopting someone else’s child!”
“What?!” Qian Caiyu couldn’t listen anymore. “In the end, you still want us to raise your son for you! Are we that st*pid? How could you guys be so shameless? Not only did you use Daxi’s wages to buy him a concubine, but you also want Daxi to raise a son for you. You really plan on enslaving Daxi for the rest of your life!”
“That’s not right.” Grandma Du could not take it anymore. “It’s all because of Daxi’s inability to give birth to a son. If she could give birth to a son, we wouldn’t have to do all this! At the end of the day, it’s still all her fault!!”
“D-dear!” Grandpa Du quickly comforted his wife and told her not to say anything else so as not to make things worse.
Grandma Du was still very obedient to her old man. Although she was still very angry, she held herself back
Grandpa Du then smiled at Xue Da with a fawning expression, “Think about it okay? You of all people should know how we feel about all of this.”
He didn’t care whether Xue Da replied or not. He smiled and said, “Daxi only brings Hongguo around and does nothing nowadays. In the future, would Hongguo still be able to get married knowing how lazy she is? Not to mention the bad reputation of Daxi and Hongguo, it will also affect your own reputation. I don’t think you want to be like this. No one wants to be shamed. We still have to take care of our reputation.”
Xue Wen was so angry that he laughed.. “Is there something wrong with your brains? Since you care about reputation, why don’t you take a look at what you’ve done instead?!”
