Chapter 865 The Housekeeper's Daughter Watching the Young Master's Love (Ancient Times) 36

"What do you know! What's wrong with having a birthmark!" Su Cong retorted, "At least the son you gave birth to is my child!"

"What nonsense are you talking about!" His wife looked helpless. "I don't know how you can become the head housekeeper with such a mouth. To be honest, I am not doing this for myself, I am doing this for our son."

Su Cong's wife continued, "Look, Su Wang was once a housekeeper, and you are also a housekeeper. His son can get financial support from the Su family to study, so why can't our son do the same?

I just want to bring our son to show off in front of the master more. Once they have a liking for each other, things will be easier in the future. Besides, the young master is only a few years older than our son, so it would be good for him to be a study companion in the future.

We can use the money you brought back to do anything else. Are you afraid that you won't be able to spend it?"

After hearing this, Su Cong immediately covered his wife's mouth and said, "You listen to what I say now. Once it leaves my mouth, it enters your ears. You can't say a word more than anyone else."

Seeing how serious he was, his wife nodded and dared not say anything more.

Su Cong looked at her, sighed secretly in his heart, and let go of her hand.

He knew his wife was doing it for the good of the child, but some things were not that simple.

Su Cong gently stroked his wife's hair and said softly, "Wife, I know you are thinking about our son, but there are some things you don't understand.

Although we are housekeepers, we are just servants in the Su family. The young masters and young ladies are the masters, and their future and fate are different from ours.

We can’t expect too much, we can only do our part, and whether it’s sponsored or accompanied by someone, it’s not necessarily a good thing! ”

His wife raised her head, a trace of resentment flashed in her eyes: "But why should our son be inferior to others? Besides, the treatment that Su Wang can get, you can also get it, you are both housekeepers, why should you get so much less than him."

Su Cong smiled bitterly: "Since you mentioned Su Wang, let me ask you, do you know what happened to his son in the end?"

His wife was silent for a while, then thought of the son of housekeeper Su, and said with a somewhat embarrassed expression: "I know you want to talk about this, but it was his son's bad luck. It was an accident that he encountered bandits while taking the exam.

Not everyone is like this, and our son is very lucky and has a long life!"

Su Cong took a deep breath and said, "How do you know it was an accident? People have walked that road for decades and never encountered such a thing. Why did his son have to encounter it?"

His wife took a deep breath, her expression now a little terrified: "Boss, don't scare me, it's not nice to say that."

"So I'm just talking. I don't have any evidence anyway." Su Cong smiled and comforted his wife, "However, losing his son in old age, his wife couldn't bear the blow and went crazy. Do you believe that if Su Wang hadn't become a monk, he might not be alive today."

Su Cong's wife suddenly opened her eyes wide, as if she suddenly understood why her husband could become the Su family's steward.

"So we should just live in peace." Su Cong continued, "Try not to go to the Su family in the future. I will definitely earn money for our son's future schooling."

After that, the couple never continued the topic again.

At three o'clock in the morning, Su Cong got up in the middle of the night, pulled open a few bricks in a corner of his own utility room, and found a small wooden box from the gap behind the bricks.

He opened the box and looked at it in the moonlight for a long time before he put the box back in its place with peace of mind.

After doing all this, Su Cong murmured to himself: "Su Cheng, don't blame me. It's not that I don't help you redress your grievances. There is no one left in your family. Instead of tearing each other apart for you and the eldest young master, oh no, now it's the second young master.

It would be better to let you keep this secret to support our family. I will definitely burn paper money for you during every festival."

Su Xiangran's dream was interrupted at this time, and she never had a similar dream again.

Judging from the current situation, this should be the ending of their family in their previous life.

After all, their family can only be regarded as ordinary NPCs in the whole plot, and no matter what the ending is, it probably won't affect the ending.

From this dream, we can know that brother Su Cheng should have died on the way to Beijing for the imperial examination, and his death was related to the young master of the Su family.

As to what caused my mother's subsequent madness, it is still uncertain.

And at the end, what Su Cong said, first the eldest young master and then the second young master, is also difficult to understand.

Judging from the timeline, the eldest master of the Su family had already died by then, so why was he still involved?

Putting aside these mysteries, the first thing to do is to keep brother Su Cheng away from these two people.

Therefore, taking advantage of this opportunity, Su Xiangran used her connections to get Su Cheng into Wanli Academy, and she paid the tuition herself and no longer accepted financial support from the Su family.
