Chapter 1422: Since I’m Not Welcome Here, I’ll Go Back To The City

Han Jing was speechless. “I’m at home. I’ve been doing all the chores for the past few days. Who have you been waiting on?”

Mother Han bellowed, “How many days can you remain at home? Aren’t you going back to school after the New Year? Are you going to stay home and wait on us?”

Han Jing did not speak. She knew her mother was thinking about getting Han Yu to drop out of school to wait on the two old folks. Even now, she would not let the idea go. She was too unreasonable.

Han Shu laughed coldly. “If I’m not welcome here, I won’t spend this New Year in this house.”

Father and Mother Han’s eyes widened and they said incredulously. “What… what did you say?”

“Is there anything wrong with what I said? I’ve just returned, but you have already started finding fault with everything. Looks like you don’t want me back. I might as well leave.”

“You…” This time, Father Han was really furious. This son had never rebelled to this extent. Now he was actually threatening them.

“You unfilial beast. You’ve grown up and you dare to oppose us? You’ve earned a few yuan out there and now you’re out of control? Don’t forget, you have no son. When you’re old, no one will care for you. When you die, no one will bury you. You only have one younger brother. Won’t you have to depend on him in the future?”

“If you don’t treat him better now, you had better not expect him to support you in your old age.”

Mother Han raised her chin and said proudly, “That’s right. Chuanzong is our family’s future. It’s your duty to support him. Otherwise when you are old, no one will care for you.”

At this time, the thinking in villages was still very feudalistic.

Many people felt they raised children to support them in their old age. Daughters would get married. If a couple had no sons, they would have no one to depend on in their old age. Even a nephew was more useful than their own daughter.

So Father and Mother Han had always been so entitled. They felt that since Han Shu had no son, he certainly would have to depend on Han Chuanzong in the future, so everything he sacrificed now was worth it.

They had not realized that Han Shu was different from them.

Actually, he also wanted a son. After all, he grew up in a village where traditional thinking still prevailed. A son would put his mind at ease. Besides, he did not want the neighbors gossiping about him.

But that did not mean that he would treat his daughter poorly.

She was his own daughter. There was no reason for him to give his younger brother all the good things while allowing his daughter to suffer like a little slave, serving these not very elderly grandparents.

Society had changed. Girls could go to school too. He wanted his daughter to be educated and to attend a university like her aunt. That way, she could marry into a better family and would not need to suffer like them and know nothing but farming.

His parents had belittled her for so many years. No wonder his daughter was surprised to hear that she had new clothes.

This was clearly her home, and her parents were the main pillars of support in the family and the main sources of income. But as a child, she had to live her life on the edge.

Han Shu’s heart ached terribly, and his rage grew.

“So what if no one cares for me! I don’t care. Yu’er is my daughter. She will support me in the future. If she doesn’t, I won’t seek anyone else’s help either. Since you can’t stand our family of three, I’ll leave. You and the future of the Han family can celebrate the New Year!”

Han Shu went over and took Han Yu’s hand. “Let’s go. I’ll bring you away.”

Han Shu did not take any of the things he brought. These were the things he had bought for the family to celebrate the New Year. He would not stoop to bringing everything away.

But he took the clothes he bought for Han Yu.
