Chapter 30 A Substitute Can Never Surpass the Righteous Master
"The eldest daughter-in-law can keep someone if she wants, but it can only be the sweeper in Qi Ran's yard. This is my bottom line. From now on, Aunt Li will be treated the same as the sweeper, and she must not exceed it."
"Yes, I will arrange it later."
It's easier for me to do things if my father talks.
"Find another nanny for Qi Ran. She should be one who has strict rules and regulations. She should be well disciplined while Qi Ran is still young. In this way, Nanny Li's influence on Qi Ran should be minimized."
Mr. Su frowned and continued to make arrangements.
"good."
He Zhixin also had this idea. Although she didn't like Su Qiran, her sister-in-law did.
We are a family after all, and we can't let Su Qiran grow crooked. If Su Qiran's character grows crooked, won't they still be the unlucky ones in the future?
"What about Taotao?"
Seeing that what her father was talking about was all about Su Qiran, He Zhixin couldn't help but ask.
"Taotao is lucky to have an aunt like you."
Hearing He Zhixin's words, Mr. Su couldn't help but smile.
Look how much He Zhixin cares about Su Taotao.
"It's a pity that Taotao is the wrong mother and is not my biological daughter."
He Zhixin said with some regret.
If I had a quirky, well-behaved and intelligent daughter like Taotao, I would wake up from my dreams laughing, but my sister-in-law didn't cherish her.
"Now Taotao recognizes you as her mother. It makes no difference whether you are her biological child or not."
Hearing He Zhixin's regretful tone, Mr. Su smiled and said.
"That's true."
Although I am not Taotao's biological mother, I still have a certain mother-daughter relationship with Taotao. Otherwise, Taotao would not be able to directly admit the wrong mother.
"Taotao has been wronged. Please pick some beautiful jade and send it to Taotao."
At present, they only know that Taotao likes beautiful jade. In emotional matters, they cannot make up for the lack of Taotao's mother's love, but materially they will never let Taotao suffer.
"Choose more, Taotao likes it."
"Also, you should let people choose carefully. Choose someone who knows martial arts for Taotao. It doesn't matter whether he is a boy or a girl. The most important thing is that he has good martial arts skills."
"Taotao likes to run around alone. Rather than letting a group of people follow her and make Taotao uncomfortable, it is better to have someone hide in the dark to protect her."
"This way, even if someone wants to attack Taotao, they won't think that there are people around Taotao. This is safer."
"That makes sense."
When He Zhixin heard this, she just felt that she was too stupid. Why didn't she think of such a method before?
If she had thought of it earlier, Taotao would not have suffered such an unreasonable disaster today.
"Also, you can ask the eldest daughter-in-law to take care of Taotao for me these two days. Qi Ran will have a maid to take care of her."
Mr. Su hesitated for a moment and then spoke.
"After all, she is her biological child. Taotao almost died. How can a mother not stay by the bed?"
He Zhixin almost laughed when she heard this.
"I'm afraid Qi Ran will have some objections."
If Su Qiran knew that her sister-in-law ignored her and went to take care of Taotao, she would not cause trouble.
"If she gets into trouble, just tell her, Aunt Li, I will make an exception and let her stay. Some things can be fought over, and some things cannot be fought over."
"Taotao almost died because of her. Shuyuan went to take care of Taotao and put Taotao first."
Although he knew that Su Qiran was still young and that Nanny Li should make the decision on these matters without authorization, he still couldn't help but anger Su Qiran.
Over the years, they have regarded Su Qiran as a substitute for Taotao. The family treats Su Qiran very well. What requests does Su Qiran make? When has anyone ever refused?
Su Qiran was just an abandoned orphan. He believed that he had done his best to be kind and righteous. If the Su family had not adopted her, she would have froze to death that winter.
Although their family had their own selfish motives for keeping Su Qiran in the first place, in the years since they adopted Su Qiran, they have never treated Su Qiran badly or made her feel wronged.
Even my own grandchildren, I have taught them to love and protect my sister Su Qiran.
But Taotao was different. Everything Su Qiran owned originally belonged to Taotao.
Su Qiran has owned everything that should have belonged to Taotao for so long, and now Taotao is just getting back what originally belonged to her. If Su Qiran had to fight for this, she would not stand idly by.
After these years of relationship, I can guarantee that I will never treat Su Qiran materially poorly, but if Su Qiran intends to compete with Taotao for her parents' favor, then don't blame him for being cruel.
Although he loves Su Qiran, he will not let Su Qiran cross Taotao. This is the bottom line.
"Dad, I remember."
He Zhixin nodded, indicating that she knew what to do.
"Go ahead."
Mr. Su asked He Zhixin to go out and do what she should do.
"If you have any questions about something, you can ask me."
Mr. Su knew that He Zhixin was his second wife.
Logically speaking, housekeeping matters should be the responsibility of the eldest daughter-in-law. However, Jiang Shuyuan knew nothing about housekeeping matters, so she could only give the housekeeping rights to the second daughter-in-law.
As the eldest sister-in-law is like a mother, He Zhixin is inevitably a little embarrassed when it comes to Jiang Shuyuan.
"Thank you dad, I will."
He Zhixin smiled slightly, bowed, and left with the others.
Su Qiran still didn't know what happened to Mr. Su, and was still complacent that she had saved Nanny Li, but she didn't know that her behavior had aroused Mr. Su's dissatisfaction.
In this family, Mr. Su rarely interferes in family affairs at will, but if he does, even Jiang Shuyuan cannot disobey him.
After all, the word filial piety is like a big mountain.
"Taotao has been wronged. The weird lady is useless and cannot bring you justice. Then Nanny Li will stay here instead of being kicked out."
When He Zhixin came out of Mr. Su's yard, she went to find Su Taotao.
In her opinion, Su Taotao had suffered a great injustice in this matter, but it happened that Su Qiran was accidentally injured because of defending Grandma Li, and the injury was still very serious.
Under such circumstances, I had to consider that I was being aggressive and if I didn't give in, my sister-in-law might turn her anger on Taotao.
It would be better to stop here. At least for this matter, my sister-in-law will always feel in her heart that she owes Taotao something.
"fine."
Su Taotao stretched out her little hand, gently touched He Zhixin's face, and said with a smile.
"I know my mother has taken out her anger on me, Taotao is not aggrieved."
Although he could not drive out people who had ill intentions towards him, Su Taotao felt that it was not a loss if he could make the bad people suffer.
"Taotao, how can you be so sensible?"
Seeing Su Taotao comforting herself, He Zhixin suddenly felt heartbroken. This chapter has been completed!
