    Madam Wang said coldly, “You don’t have to wash my dirty clothes. When Madam Zhaoes back, she will wash them. That b*tch must be feeling great after lying down for a few months. When shees back, I’ll have to teach her a lesson. Sang has always been filial. He must have been instigated by her to drive a wedge between us. If I don’t teach her a lesson, I don’t know what shameless things she will do.”


    “If we don’t teach her a lesson, she will lead our Su family astray.”


    Madam Wang narrowed her eyes. That sinister gaze made Madam Li and Madam Zhou shiver.


    They could not help but rejoice that they were not the ones that Madam Wang hated the most. Fortunately, their sons were healthy, and fortunately, they were not bought into the family by Madam Wang.


    Madam Wang’s hatred for Madam Zhao had been deeply rooted since Madam Zhao entered the family.


    Madam Zhao was brought to the Su family by a peddler and cost one tael of silver.


    Madam Wang suspected that Madam Zhao was not a virgin, but there was a bloody handkerchief the day after their wedding night.


    Even if this proved Madam Zhao’s innocence, it did not stop Madam Wang from hating her deeply.


    At the end of the day, she was bought. This meant that she was lowly and could be stepped on by others.


    “Third Brother is really too much. He forgot about his mother after marrying his wife. Third Sister-inw’s maniption made him not care about anything. He has no skills at all and has be a good-for-nothing.”


    When Su Dng heard Madam Wang’s disdain, he chimed in.


    Madam Wang spat out a mouthful of blood and said coldly, “It’s my fault for being blind back then and choosing such a wife for Sang. Giving birth to a few useless things harmed Sang. As long as Sang is capable of it, he can just chase that useless thing away and I will find another one for him.”


    After Madam Wang said that, Old Master Su made ns.


    Su Dng and Su Eng had nothing to say.


    It was impossible for Madam Li and Madam Zhou to speak up at this time. They were not stupid.


    With Madam Wang’s anger directed towards Madam Zhao, as long as Madam Zhao returned, their lives would be better than before.


    No one knew that Su Sang, who was hesitating outside the door and did not know how to face his parents, had heard all of this.


    He clenched his fists and gritted his teeth.


    His heart ached with anger.


    His eyes were cold as he raised his hand and knocked.


    The sudden knock on the door startled everyone in the room.


    Su Eng asked, “Who is it?”


    Su Sang replied coolly, “It’s me.”


    Su Sang’s voice stunned everyone in the house. It was Old Master Su who came to his senses first and said to Su Eng, “Open the door.”


    Su Eng stood up and opened the door. He smiled and said happily, “Third Brother, you’re back. We’re eating. Have you eaten? Let’s eat together.”


    As he spoke, Su Eng was about to grab Su Sang’s arm when Su Sang coldly avoided him. He looked at Old Master Su and said coldly, “I’m here for one thing only. I’ll leave after I’m done.”


    “I’m here to tell you that you can’t take back what you’ve spilled. I, Su Sang, am doing very well. My wife, my children, and I won’t return to this family to get in your way. From now on, my family’s life and death will have nothing to do with you. When we separated from the family, Father said that I don’t have to worry about you and Mother when you retire. I want to say that a man should keep his word.”


    Su Sang looked straight at Old Master Su and finished speaking.


    Old Master Su’s expression darkened. Before he could react, Madam Wang threw the bowl at Su Sang and scolded, “You bastard, are you heartless? You are going to be struck by lightning!”


    Su Sang did not stand there foolishly and let Madam Wang smash him. He turned to the side and avoided the attack. When he looked at Madam Wang, his expression did not change. He said coldly, “Even if I’m going to be struck by lightning, it has nothing to do with all of you.”


    Su Sang clenched his fists. Even though he had been hurt by Madam Wang many times and had warned himself not to care, he still felt pain in his heart. He felt so much pain that he wanted to die.


    After all, Madam Wang was his biological mother and the person who had given birth to him. If not for the fact that he had no choice, he would not have ended up like this.


    Madam Wang did not simply treat Madam Zhao badly. She hoped that Madam Zhao would die, and his children were not human in Madam Wang’s eyes. At most, they were livestock that could do hardbor.


    Su Sang’s decisiveness was unexpected to everyone.


    Old Master Su looked at Su Sang and said coldly, “Sang, if you treat your parents like this because of that woman with unknown backgrounds, don’t me me for being ruthless.”


    Su Sang looked at Old Master Su. He did not say anything and just stared at him. His determined eyes were filled with coldness.


    Old Master Su’s face was ashen. He mmed the table and roared, “Su Sang, whose ce do you think you’re living in now? It’s mine! Do you really think I don’t dare to chase your family out? Do you think that what you’ve achieved today is your own doing?”


    Old Master Su was furious. He had always known that his son, Su Sang, had a rebellious streak. Su Sang had guts, but when he saw how Su Sang had disobeyed him for a woman and was so rebellious, Old Master Su wanted to suppress Su Sang’s arrogance.


    “The ancients always said that when parents are around, they don’t separate the family. Do you think it’s really that simple to separate from the family? Do you know what it means to be separated when parents are alive?”


    Old Master Su’s expression was cold and unprecedentedly stern.


    No one in the room dared to speak. After all, in their opinion, Old Master Su was the heavens. The ground trembled when the heavens were angered, let alone people who lived under the heavens.


    Madam Wang was frightened. She had bit her tongue when she shut her mouth just now. It was extremely painful, and the blisters in her mouth had burst. There was a bloody taste in her mouth.


    Under Old Master Su’s storm, no one dared to disobey him.


    Su Sang’s expression did not change. He looked into Old Master Su’s eyes and said calmly, “Father, are you saying that chasing our family out was just to punish us? Is it because Madam Zhao gave birth to a daughter, or because she spent a couple hundreds of copper coins to buy medicine? Is it to wait for my family to finish all our food and suffer the cold before kneeling down and begging you?”


    Su Sang’s sarcasm made Grandpa Su even angrier. He thought that if he was angry like this, he would suppress Su Sang. Su Sang would kneel down and apologize. However, Su Sang did not. Not only did he not, he even mocked him.


    “Alright, alright. Looks like you really don’t want to be part of the Su family. You want to cut off your roots as the Su family, right?”


    Old Master Su used his final trump card. He had to deal with this unfilial son who had disobeyed him. If he could not, he would have to cut him offpletely.


    If Su Sang said yes now, Old Master Su would expel him from the Su family.


    Everyone present understood, but no one stood up for Su Sang’s family.


    Not only was Su Sang not stunned, he threw his head back andughed. “Hahaha, looks like I never had a choice to begin with.”
