Chapter 433 - 433 433 One Day Youll Give Up

Chapter 433: Chapter 433: One Day, You’ll Give Up Chapter 433: Chapter 433: One Day, You’ll Give Up Seeing Grandfather had no value to exploit anymore, it was impossible for him to stay at home.

Lin Caisang turned her gaze, a sardonic smile playing on her lips as she looked at Ya Molian, listening to Old Master Zhong’s words. She felt her skin crawl and she tightened her grip on her own hand.

Ya Molian raised her hand, gently pinching her chubby hand, glancing back at Old Master Zhong, signaling her to continue listening. Neither of them spoke.

“Does Grandfather not know that Zhong Yun has changed the Zhong family’s name to Fu?” Zhong You asked.

“How could I let him know?” Old Master Zhong shook his head and said.

Considering his father’s temper, how he coddled Zhong Yun, he virtually treated Zhong Yun like the apple of his eye.

If he found out Zhong Yun had changed the Zhong family to the Fu family, if he didn’t die of shock, worst case, he might stir up trouble at the Fu family’s place, and if Zhong Yun found a reason, he might get the upper hand again.

“Does Grandfather just wait outside the door every day?” asked Zhong You again.

“Just let him wait, he’ll give up someday.” Old Master Zhong huffed coldly.

It’s not that he didn’t want to be a dutiful son, hadn’t he proved his filial piety before? But when his father didn’t act like a father, if he, as a son, naively continued to be a filial son, his life would be truly ruined.

And it would harm his own children as well.

“It’s pouring rain outside, and Grandfather, he… Why don’t you persuade him?” Zhong You had a worried look on his face, looking at his own father.

“Would persuasion work?”

Old Master Zhong retorted.

If persuasion worked, would he have moved to this farmland?

To persuade his father? Perhaps if he really did, his father might even try to persuade him in return, asking him to surrender the family property to Zhong Yun.

That father of his, he might still be dreaming that Zhong Yun would come to take him back to live a comfortable life!

“You’er, your main task now is to follow your master, I can handle the family affairs. I used to do everything as per your grandfather’s wishes, but not from now on. No matter what he wants to do, I won’t go along with him.”

He said this to his son, emphasizing each word.

“Father…”

When Zhong You heard his words, he felt a bitterness in his heart.

“What’s left in our family now? Why are you living on a farm? Don’t we have other properties?”

“A few stores are left, and the rest is this farmland and the fields next to it.” Old Master Zhong answered.

These things, Zhong Yun looked down on. His son, he only had eyes for those stores that could make money. He wouldn’t even care about these fields.

“Did you give everything else to Zhong Yun?” Zhong You was puzzled.

It wasn’t about not wanting to let go of the family property; it’s just that he found it unbearable to see Zhong Yun benefiting.

“The family property was originally divided into three parts, your share—I knew you always liked to tinker with medicinal herbs—so I gave you this farm and fields. In future, reduce the amount of food grown on the farm, and grow medicinal herbs instead.”

Old Master Zhong looked at him and said, word by word.

“As for my share, when your sister got married, I listened to your grandfather and didn’t provide any dowry. Now I regret deeply. So, I gave half of my share to your sister. The other half…”

When I divorced Ms. Fu, I gave her the other half. I just kept a few stores, but that’s enough for the family to live on.”

Hearing this, Zhong You sighed gently, but didn’t feel that this was wrong.
