The atmosphere was awkward, and Su Wan was even more embarrassed. She didn't expect that the fourth brother would be so resistant to her, and made her unable to get off the stage in public, but it didn't matter, she was thick-skinned, and as long as she didn't feel embarrassed, others would be embarrassed.
"Su Yun, Wan Wan is talking to you, you shouldn't be so unreasonable to her!" As the eldest brother, Su Jing came out to be the peacemaker.
Now Yueyue is already a wealthy eldest daughter. Her family status is as high as that of the Su family. Mrs. Gu said that day that the matter is now over and there is no point in pursuing anyone's fault. But she He would not give his family any help or benefits just because of their relationship with Yue Yue. He could never forget that self-righteous look on his face.
Yueyue still regards her as his sister, but she has left this poor family and lived a good life, and they don't need to worry about her in the future.
Mrs. Gu doesn't like them interacting with her, so they naturally have to be more sensible.
But Su Yun didn't listen to this firecracker at all. He tried his best to suppress his emotions and stood up suddenly:
"You guys eat it, I can't eat it now."
After he finished speaking, he stood up and walked out of the house, his expression a little hurt.
Su Wan drew a talisman in his mind. It seemed that this fourth brother was the most difficult to deal with.
"Wan Wan..." Su Jing looked at her disappointed look and wanted to comfort her but didn't know how to speak. Su's mother was a little at a loss and Su's father was silent.
"The food is cold, I'll heat it up!"
"I'll help you watch the fire!"
Su's father and mother fled the scene of the disaster, and Su Jing pulled Su Wan to sit down:
"It's okay Wan Wan, your fourth brother will accept you!"
When Su Wan heard this, he smiled at him:
"Ok, I know!"
There is now the last fifth brother left. The atmosphere at the dinner table is very subtle. Everyone has their own thoughts. Su Wan and fifth brother Su Yi said hello:
"Fifth brother!"
Su Yi was the only one who smiled at her. On the surface, he seemed gentle and easy to get along with, and he didn't fight or fight, but in fact, he was the most delicate in mind, but his words were a bit yin and yang.
The movements and silences between him and Su Yun are very consistent with the personality differences between the twins.
"Sister Wan Wan!"
Su's mother reheated the food and put it on the table again. The Su family was really poor. Usually there was no meat on the table, because all the children in the family had to go to school. Su's father hoped that they would be successful in the future and not become a mere idiot. They were illiterate and couldn't read, so they were sent to school in their first grade. Life at home was very stressful. Even Gu Yue could study, which made her stand out in a school full of boys.
In ancient times, it was believed that women without talent were virtuous, and this idea was even more deeply rooted in rural areas.
Su Jing is the only one of the five brothers who is talented in reading. He loves reading and is obsessed with reading. He is bound to take part in the imperial examination. His dream in the future is to become an official in the court. Firstly, he will benefit the people and secondly, let his family live a good life. day.
He was selected as a scholar at the age of sixteen. He could have taken the imperial examination three years ago, but because Gu Yue fell ill and all the family money was spent on her treatment, he missed the imperial examination.
Spring will come next year, and his chance will come. He must not let anything happen again.
A scholar could go to the government to receive three measures of rice and three coins, or thirty coins, every month. This dynasty valued literature, and scholars were well paid. However, his academy had to pay five taels of silver every year for repairs, and he had to save a year and zero. It took him five months to save enough money to study, and he was admitted to the academy only after he became a scholar. He studied in the county for a long time. In his spare time, he earned some living expenses by writing letters to others, three dou meters a month. He took them all home. If the bundles he handed in every year were not enough for repair, Su's father and Su's mother would give him the little ones to put on his back.
There is a meat dish on the table, which Su's father went out to buy early in the morning. He also bought a small crucian carp. His biological daughter came back, so he had to cook something decent to entertain her.
Apart from these two dishes, there was a large bowl of wild vegetable pancakes and a pot of boiled sweet potatoes on the table, and there was nothing else. She was the only one who had rice, and the rest was rice soup.
"Wan Wan, my family is poor and we don't have any good food to entertain you. Don't dislike it!" As the head of the family, Su's father actually couldn't hold his head up in front of this gorgeously dressed biological daughter.
"I don't mind it!" Su Wan shook her head, picked up her chopsticks, took a bite of fish and stuffed it into her mouth. Everyone looked at her. After all, she was a young lady who was used to eating delicacies from all over the world. Could she be used to eating this tasteless dish?
As a result, Su Wan nodded in surprise:
"It's delicious, parents, brothers, you should eat it too!"
Seeing that she didn't have any disgust on her face, everyone secretly breathed a sigh of relief. They were worried that this new sister would be difficult to take care of, but they didn't expect her temper to be quite good.
Everyone started to take action, each person took a sweet potato or a wild vegetable pancake and started to chew it, but no one stretched out their chopsticks to pick up the two meat dishes. Su Wan couldn't tell what it felt like.
"Mom and Dad, you work so hard and have to eat meat to supplement your nutrition. I don't like meat. I can't finish all this by myself!"
She took the initiative to pick up a chopstick of meat and put it into Father Su's mother's bowl.
"Wanwan, we don't eat, you eat, this is what I bought for you!"
It was difficult to eat meat during the holidays, so sometimes the third child would go to the mountains to hunt down game, such as pheasants, hares, and the like, but he couldn't bear to eat it himself, so he used it all in exchange for money.
"Brothers eat too!"
Su Wan looked at his brothers, but they were silently chewing on the sweet potato and wild vegetable pancakes in their hands and did not answer anything. In fact, they even swallowed several times when they saw the meat.
"Sister Wanwan, you can eat and don't worry about us!" Fifth brother Su Yi said to her with a smile.
"Yes Wan Wan, they can eat it themselves if they want, don't worry about them!"
Su Jing glanced at the younger brothers, warning them to be polite to the new sister. As the eldest brother, he was very prestigious, and the younger brothers listened to him.
Su Wan pursed her lips, then put down her chopsticks:
"Since everyone doesn't eat, I won't eat either. Wan Wan knows that she doesn't have a deep relationship with her parents and brothers, and her return is sudden, but Wan Wan also wants to integrate into this family!"
She spoke aggrievedly, her little face was full of disappointment, and no one could bear to see it!
"Wanwan doesn't feel uncomfortable, we just eat!"
Su Jing took the lead and stretched out her chopsticks, followed by the other three. As soon as the taste of the meat entered her mouth, she couldn't help but eat the second piece after eating one piece.
Only then did Su Wan laugh again. She stood up and took the bowl that originally belonged to fourth brother Su Yun on the table, and used clean chopsticks to add meat to his bowl.
"Fourth brother hasn't eaten yet, leave a portion for him!"
The new sister was very sensible and didn't show any dislike to them at all. She thought she was a daughter raised by a arrogant woman like Mrs. Gu, and she must have the same virtues as her. Unexpectedly, they thought too much.
