“As for regretting being a woman, that’s even more ridiculous.”
Seeing that the oldest daughter was listening to her seriously, Yuan Niang decided to use this opportunity to persuade her.
After all, according to Lin Suisui’s previous instructions, this little girl would become her disciple in the future. As her mentor, she should treat this as her first lesson.
“Don’t you like Madam very much?”
Yuan Niang pulled the eldest daughter to the table at the side. Then, she continued, “Madam is also a woman, but she has good medical skills. Even many male doctors in Cloud Mountain City aren’t as capable as her.
But she was a woman!
Women don’t have things as easy as men in many aspects. Many times, we are even ostracized and criticized, but that’s not our fault!
Let’s talk about your family.
How much has your father truly interfered in your family’s matters?
The work at home depended on your mother and most of the business in the shop was decided by your grandmother.
“Think about it. If your family doesn’t have your father, will you really be unable to survive anymore?”
“No.” The eldest daughter thought about it seriously before replying to Yuan Niang with certainty, “My mother can do embroidery to earn money. My sisters and 1 can also help my mother. We can do many things.
Actually, ever since Third Sister was born, neither our father nor our grandmother had given our mother any money.
Our allowance was also earned by our mother.”
At first, the eldest daughter was a little hesitant, but as she realized the truth, a smile gradually appeared on her face.
In the past, when things were so difficult, her mother and her sisters survived nonetheless!
Seeing them, Mrs. Luo heaved a sigh of relief. “You’re finally here. The Song family has been causing trouble for the entire morning!”
The cause of the matter was very simple—adoption.
Not long after Mrs. Luo and the others returned, the Song clansmen came to visit. A few elders brought a three-year-old boy in mourning clothes and asked him to guard Old Madam Guo’s wake as her grandson.
They were just short of snatching it. Why would they ask Song Zhou’s permission?
Song Zhou naturally disagreed with the Song family’s actions.
However, the group of elders was quite unyielding and even blamed Song Zhou.
They blamed her for not giving birth to a son for Song Jianxing. That was why Song Jianxing had no choice but to do such a heartless thing.
In their opinion, Song Zhou should apologize now to comfort Old Madam Guo.
Such an unreasonable decision was strongly refuted by Song Zhou. Of course, there were also neighbors who came over to help. At this moment, the mourning hall was in chaos.
“Hasn’t Song Jianxing been removed from the Song family?”
Lin Suisui turned to look at the noisy room opposite her and said disdainfully, “They’re really shameless.”
After she took the teacup from Bai Guo, she didn’t forget to instruct her to go out and inform Su Le to send someone to invite the county governor over.
Previously, when she was treating outsiders with her mentor, she had seen such shameless methods. She really hated this sort of thing.
Ever since the imperial court established its own imperial court, women could become head of households.
However, after so many years, there were still many people in the private sector who bullied people like this!
It was really despicable!
After Yuan Niang listened for a while, she couldn’t help but turn to look at Lin Suisui and suggest in a low voice, “I’ll go over and take a look.”
“Yes, be careful.” Lin Suisui nodded but didn’t stop Yuan Niang. When she walked out, she added, “Wait, let Yin Qiao go with you.”
When Yin Qiao heard Lin Suisui’s instructions, he quickly followed Yuan Niang without hesitation and the two of them rushed in the direction of the Song family’s home, which was next door..
