Hearing Xiao Tao mention his eldest brother, Zhao Rong was also shocked. He never thought that Xiao Tao would say such words. After all, in his impression, he would inherit the inheritance when he grew up.
He has a family business and takes on the responsibility of being the head of the Zhao family.
Why didn't he expect that no one outside thought that he would be the next head of the Zhao family, but that his older brother-in-law would be the next head of the Zhao family. He couldn't help but asked in surprise: "
Xiaotao, is what you said true?"
Seeing that his young master was so surprised, Xiao Tao certainly knew why he acted so fiercely when he heard her say this. He nodded affirmatively and immediately agreed.
"Young master, that's how it is. The elder brother came to the Zhao family to find us because of the request of the two young masters. There is no need for him to lie in front of us. After all, the things he said should be common to everyone outside.
I think there is no need to lie at all. I just need to go out and ask around, and I will be able to find out."
Although Xiao Tao said this, he actually knew very well in his heart that it was difficult for the servants in this courtyard to go outside. Moreover, they had to explain clearly how long they went outside and where they went.
The woman who watches the door can keep everyone under control and does not let them wander outside or have the opportunity to communicate with others.
But now Xiaotao couldn't care about so much. He could only grit his teeth and implement this matter to make the young master truly realize that his situation in the Zhao family was already very bad. So he said it directly,
You can know this information by asking outside. Although you may not be able to do it, Xiao Tao feels that the elder brother is here to help them, and there is no need to lie to them. Besides, lying like this will be harmful to the elder brother.
What are the benefits?
Now Xiao Tao must seize any possible opportunity to let her young master understand the situation at hand. Sure enough, after hearing what he said, Zhao Rong immediately put away his uncertain expression and his face became ugly.
After listening to Xiaotao's words, he also realized that in his current situation, there was no need for someone to come to Zhao's house specially to deceive himself with these things.
But after knowing these things, Zhao Rong's mind was even more confused. He didn't know what kind of reaction he should do. The difficulty was that the inherent thoughts of more than ten years were suddenly broken. Someone suddenly told him that his
In the name of doing good for him, his parents did things that harmed his interests. How could she accept it all at once?
Besides, in Zhao Rong's heart, he felt that the position of the head of the Zhao family was really not that attractive. What he actually wanted more was to be able to learn things from books and then travel around the outside world.
Fan. Go and see things he has never seen before, and also enjoy the beautiful mountains and rivers.
In Zhao Rong's opinion, the happiest time in his life, except for the years when he was playing tricks as a child, was the few days when he and his second brother traveled to the provincial capital a few days ago.
Except for these two periods of time, he felt that he was really depressed at home and had no freedom at all. And the most important thing was that when he was at home, he did not have the time to communicate with other people in the family.
. Even during holidays, there are very few opportunities for me to say a few words to my brothers and sisters. Even if I say a few words to my sister who is of the same mother, my mother will always pay special attention to him.
movement.
So over time, Zhao Rong actually didn't have deep feelings for his family members. Now at home, the person he cares about most is probably his grandmother. Ever since he was a child, his grandmother has always looked at him with that kind and caring look.
It was as if she was his most precious treasure.
Because of his grandmother's attitude towards him, Zhao Rong has always been unwilling to let his grandmother worry. As his grandmother gets older, Zhao Rong rarely tells his grandmother about his worries. Whenever he encounters problems in life,
When encountering any difficulties or feeling depressed, Zhao Rong would no longer go to his grandmother to complain one by one like he did when he was a child. Instead, he would take everything down and bury it in his heart, and then put himself
The happiest and happiest look, shown in front of my grandmother.
As he gets older, his grandmother is getting older and older. On the one hand, he is worried about his grandmother's health. After all, even if his parents don't remind him that his grandmother is old, Zhao Rong can still see that his grandmother has recently passed away.
The spirit of the past few years has not been as good as before.
Therefore, even if his parents did not remind him from time to time to avoid disturbing his grandmother's rest and recuperation as he grew older, Zhao Rong would no longer always want to go to his grandmother to enjoy her pampering like he did when he was a child.
In fact, the main reason why Zhao Rong appears less and less in front of the old lady is that it is increasingly difficult for him to pretend to be happy. Unlike when he was a child, he was truly carefree.
As he got older, his father and mother taught him a lot of principles. Later, he felt that his life was very oppressive, without any freedom.
Therefore, the smiles on Zhao Rong's face are naturally getting less and less. It is already difficult for him to pretend to be as optimistic and upbeat in front of the old lady as before. Zhao Rong is not willing to always act to deceive the old lady.
Gradually, the opportunities for grandparents and grandchildren to meet each other became less and less.
So in this family, Zhao Rong felt that if his grandmother had not been there, he would have felt that he should stay away from the Zhao family. He would rather live in a poor family than be locked in a cage like a golden bird.
This time he went on a trip to the provincial capital, which was an eye-opener for him. Zhao Rong also saw how poor people live outside and how they struggle to earn enough food and clothing for a day. He is no longer that person, having reached a few cents
At Qian’s wonton stall, the young man insisted on eating delicacies from all over the world.
When traveling with Gong Yu in those days, he heard from his second brother how many ordinary people lived. Although these words were just hearsay, in Zhao Rong's opinion, what kind of hard life would he rather live?
I don't want to live in the Zhao family like a prison.
Especially during the ten days when Xiao Tao was sent to solitary confinement, the boy specially sent by her mother was like a ghost behind her, keeping an eye on her all the time. (To be continued)
