Tong Tiehu frowned, “I’m not sure of the specific reason, but when your Uncle Changshun was young, the Sun Family was quite fond of him.”
A look of surprise flickered across Tong Sanlang’s handsome face, “The Sun Family used to be fond of Uncle Changshun?”
This…
Such a situation was simply unimaginable!
Tong Tiehu nodded, “Yes, but they suddenly didn’t like him anymore. I don’t know the specific reason.”
“So all these years, Grandpa Qiao just watched as the Sun family bullied Uncle Changshun?” Tong Sanlang asked again.
“There’s no other way, Qiao Qinghe is lacking in confidence. He was an outsider who came to Anping Village alone many years ago. He didn’t have a penny and even came down with a high fever. It was the father of the Sun family who took him in. Later, he settled down in the village after recovering, and the Sun family helped him a lot during that time.”
“The Sun family only had this one daughter, Sun. The family line was dying out and then…”
Tong Tiehu paused here, sipped some tea, and slowly savored it.
“What happened then?” Sensing the amusement in his grandfather’s tone, Tong Sanlang’s curiosity was piqued.
Tong Tiehu chuckled, “At one point, Qiao Qinghe went to the Sun family and got drunk with the father of Sun. He ended up taking advantage of Sun.”
“Puff!” The steamed bun in Tong Sanlang’s mouth almost choked him. He coughed a few times, quickly poured himself a glass of water, and started drinking.
Tong Tiehu looked at him and laughed, his eyes full of affection, “Was that shocking?”
Tong Sanlang nodded, putting down the teacup, “I never would’ve expected Grandpa Qiao to do something like that.”
Qiao Qinghe was quite a handsome man, even as he grew older and had been living in the village for decades, he still stood out for his distinctive demeanor when among the villagers.
As for Sun, judging from her current appearance, she must have been average-looking when she was young.
Knowing now that it was Qiao Qinghe who took advantage of Sun when he was drunk, had these two really mixed up their stories?
“Anyway, that’s how the Sun family tells it and he conceded. He eventually married Sun and moved into the Sun family home, in effect becoming a son-in-law who had married into his wife’s family. The village also repossessed his original lands. Due to his marrying into the family, his son Sun Junyan bears the Sun surname, preserving the family line.”
“Years ago, his health wasn’t good and he needed to take medication regularly. Sun took care of most of the housework. Therefore, he doesn’t stand tall in front of Sun.”
Tong Sanlang paused, “Even though Sun treats Uncle Changshun and his family so poorly, even if he doesn’t have the backbone to stand up to her, he wouldn’t be completely indifferent, would he?”
“Privately, he has been secretly supporting your Aunt Changshun. As for anything else, I really can’t figure out what he’s thinking.”
“He’s been supporting Aunt Changshun and her family?” Surprise crossed Tong Sanlang’s handsome face again.
“Hmm, otherwise, considering Sun’s tyrannical behavior, Uncle Changshun’s family wouldn’t be able to hold on.” Tong Tiehu finished the tea in his mouth, got up and said, “Okay, 1 am going to check on your second brother, to see if he is working diligently.”
“Your second brother was spoiled when he was young. Just don’t let him turn into another Sun Junyan.”
“He won’t. My second brother is fundamentally good, just a bit lazy. Sun Junyan is rotten to the core. My second brother is not in the same league as him.”
“That was the old days. Now he has a wife, his ear is softer than tofu.” Thinking of Zhu Hongyun, Tong Tiehu’s face turned stern again, “You go back to your room to study later. I will check on it when I return.”
“Yes.” Tong Sanlang replied.
Tong Tiehu nodded in satisfaction and stepped out of the house.
Tong Sanlang quickly finished his lunch, washed the pots and dishes, and then returned to his room, sitting by the window to read.
The sunlight passed through the window lattice and fell on his long eyelashes, adding a bright layer to his handsome face, making him extraordinarily handsome..
