Chapter 278 - Wooden has been formed, overturning water is difficult to retrieve
The entire bedroom suddenly became quiet. The old tutor's sorrowful words echoed around the room for a long time.
Su Lai's body trembled, and a few tears related to family love finally flowed down from his eyes. However, Su Zhong gritted his teeth and looked at his two brothers furiously. His eyes burned with fury.
Xiao Yi shook his head and sighed. Su Meiran's face paled as her delicate body trembled slightly.
The rest of the old tutor's children were sprawled on the ground, unmoving. After all, this was done by his brothers. They knew the inside story of this matter, but they silently accepted the actions of their two older brothers. Therefore, everyone had a bit of luck on their side right now.
However, Old Man Su Wenlong was enraged to the extreme at this moment. He took off the military coat on his body and threw it towards Ol 'Eight who was on the ground.
The eighth sister in this group, as well as the old gramps biological daughter, Su Shu.
Su Shu, who was wearing a marten fur coat, was thrown over by that thick military coat. He trembled slightly and looked at his father doubtfully, feigning innocence as he said, "This was done by my two brothers. It has nothing to do with the rest of us. Why are you venting your anger on me? "
To Su Shu's question, the old man could only sneer. Then, he said slowly to the Yellow Sister-in-Law servant in the room: "Late at night, under the cover of the pine tree, tell me about what happened that night, Yellow Sister-in-Law."
The Yellow Sister-in-Law that had wrinkles all over her face stood on the old man's bed. Then, in a different tone of voice, she repeated: "As for Father, we and our brothers and sisters all think that he really ought to go. After all, in the years that he was in charge of the Su Clan, the Su Clan got worse and worse every year … "
This was exactly what Su Shu had said under the cedar tree, and it would be repeated by the Yellow Sister-in-Law one word at a time. It was a vivid display of all the charm that Su Shu had shown when she had said those words.
However, Su Shu's expression instantly changed. Then, he swiftly took a deep breath, raised his head and looked at his father Su Wenlong, and said furiously. "Father, these are all slander. Both of us are devoted to our father, to this family. Don't you want your son and daughter to believe in that outsider? "
"Outsiders?" Su Wenlong let out a cold laugh, then raised his head and let out a long sigh as he slowly said, "Yellow Sister-in-Law is not an outsider …"
"Yellow Sister-in-Law is not an outsider, are we?" Su Shu refused to admit it and asked excitedly.
Hearing Su Shu's nagging, she kept asking. Yellow Sister-in-Law laughed bitterly, the wrinkles on his face relaxed slightly. Then he said with emotion, "I have followed your father for over fifty years, from a pure girl to an old woman like you. Do you know why I was willing to wait here for fifty years? I was waiting for your father. I have loved him since I was a girl, until now. He's just an outsider …. "
Yellow Sister-in-Law did not continue, but a look of disappointment appeared on her old face. She was an infatuated woman who had loved a man like Su Wenlong for dozens of years. He was willing to give himself up to such a big family and become the most ordinary of servants. The hidden meaning behind his words was not something an outsider could imagine.
The love of the past slowly recounted itself. The atmosphere in the bedroom became heavy.
Su Wenlong turned around and looked at Yellow Sister-in-Law, his face full of expression. Then he said softly, "You know, you and I are impossible. I'm not going to betray the kid... "
An infatuated woman met a infatuated man. However, they weren't infatuated with each other. In the end, it was nothing more than a tragedy, a feud that lasted for decades.
After pausing for a moment, Su Wenlong looked at her daughter Su Shu and continued, "So, don't try to put on an act here. Yellow Sister-in-Law didn't talk much, but as long as she did. Then I must believe it. Besides, I told her to keep an eye on you. "
"Dad, you actually sent people to guard us?" Su Shu's face sank as she once again spoke up loudly to defend herself.
"Can't I watch you guys die together?" Su Wenlong's voice suddenly became stern and high-pitched. His words revealed a sense of majesty.
Su Shu finally stopped talking and closed her eyes.
It was because she remembered when she was young, her father's voice had become stern every time he spoke. If she tried to quibble, her father would not hesitate to slap her on the head. Thus, Su Shu had finally come to a compromise.
For a moment, the entire room was so quiet that a pin drop could be heard. Su Wenlong, the Su Family's old patriarch, paced back and forth in the room. His gaze was like a blade as he sized up this group of unfilial sons from time to time.
After a long while, Su Wenlong finally took a deep breath. The skin on that skinny old face suddenly tensed up. His eyes flickered with a bright light. He raised his thick eyebrows and showed his might without getting angry.
"Since all of you have come together to put me in a coffin, let's not talk about the relationship between father and son." Su Wenlong's voice was like thunder, as he said each word aloud: "Then, from now on, I will break all ties with you two. I, Su Wenlong, no longer have you sons and daughters. "
As he said till here, Su Wenlong's hands that were hanging down slightly trembled. Gritting his teeth, his voice instantly grew louder, "From today onwards, expel him from our clan and take back all of the Su Clan's wealth. Furthermore, from now on, I do not wish to see you all in the capital anymore. "
The old tutor had expended all his strength in these words. He had cut off all relations with his own children. For him, it was a very difficult decision.
However, it was too late to do anything about it. Old Gramps Su Wenlong was also helpless.
It was impossible to guard against the existence of the sons and daughters of a pack of wolfdogs. It would be better to expel him from the Su Clan as soon as possible. Even if he became an old man of the Gu family in the future, Su Wenlong would never want to see his sons and daughters.
"Dad, do you really have the heart to do that?" At this moment, all the children of the Su Family in the bedroom raised their heads. Su Lai was the first to be unable to endure it any longer, and anxiously said loudly: "All of us are your blood, your blood and flesh. As the saying goes, a tiger cannot eat its prey. Are you really that heartless? "
"Don't bite off more than you can chew." Su Wenlong repeated his words once again, and then said with heartache: "Even if it's venomous, I'm afraid of being devoured by all of you …"
Hearing these words, the hearts of Su Lai and the others sank to the bottom. His entire body was cold to the point where his spine was bone deep. His face was as pale as paper. He started to tremble uneasily.
Each and every one of them finally began to feel fear and trepidation. Throwing away the gigantic halo of light from the Su Clan, he walked out of the house. All of them did not have the same lofty aspirations as Su Meiran's father.
"Let's go." The old tutor waved his hand, and his eyes reddened. He couldn't help but shed tears in the end.
No matter what, they were all his flesh and blood. Despite having raised her for so many years, she was still unable to part with her father. Even if one had been carrying a rock for decades, they would still develop feelings for each other. Not to mention, his own child?
Su Lai took the lead and slowly stood up. Finally, this large group of people all stood up and straightened their bodies. However, Su Lai was still somewhat unwilling. He looked at Su Wenlong who had straightened his spine and went silent for a moment. Then, he suddenly asked: "Father, are you alright? If you drive us away, this Su Family's foundation can be said to collapse in an instant. "
"There's no need for you to worry. Since I can stand up and talk to you for so long, then it's naturally alright. " Su Wenlong answered loudly. He was full of energy and did not feel sick at all.
Hearing his father's words, Su Lai finally gave up. Shaking his head in confusion, he finally asked the last question, "Dare I ask, Father, how did you know of the plot in the musk, and how did you cure the illness that had lasted for so many years?"
This was the most important question, after Su Lai asked this. Everyone in the room raised their heads to look at him. His gaze locked onto the Su Clan's old man, waiting for his answer.
After hearing this question, Su Wenlong slowly raised his head, "It seems that the heavens do not stop me. Number six, you did find me a genius doctor. Not long after you entered this room, you discovered your plot. In these few days, the medicinal herbs that I had Mei Ran boil for me were naturally able to heal my body. "
"So, it's him?" In Su Lai's mind, he once again thought of the God Doctor Xiao who was wearing a bamboo hat and a black cloth. When he thought about the Godly Doctor Xiao, after that spectacular battle with the famous doctor from the north and south of the capital, everything suddenly came to a realization.
He claimed that he couldn't cure the old man, and then chased his personal doctor, Lu Xing, out of the villa. Later, the door of the bedroom was locked so that this group of children could not go to visit.
Everything was just a smoke bomb that the old tutor had released.
No matter how unwilling he was, how unwilling he was. Su Lai took the lead and slowly walked out of the old man's bedroom with this group of people. Sixth Brother Su Zhong opened his mouth, wanting to say something. However, when Old Man Su Wenlong's stern gaze swept over him, he still shut his mouth in the end.
When Su Meiran saw this scene, her nose suddenly felt sour. This was because she felt that this scene was extremely similar to the one back then.
This scene was similar to what happened many years ago. Su Meiran and her family left the old man's villa and this bedroom.
Back then, the old man Su Wenlong had tears in his eyes as well, while the sixth uncle Su Zhong had also wanted to say something but hesitated.
