Han Chuanzong was startled. “What does that mean?”
“That means your parents are villagers and they think like villagers. I’m sure many of your neighbors think like that too, right? They think that since your elder brother has no sons, he has no one to support him in his old age and be filial to him. His daughter has to be married off, so your elder brother will depend on you in the future. So it’s his duty to support you. Right?”
Han Chuanzong pursed his lips and nodded. “Right. Many people here think like that.”
Gu Ziang laughed. “So! I won’t tell you directly whether your parents’ thinking is true or false. Time will tell. But I can tell you that if you want to become like us and be like the more capable people in my circle, you have to think like us.”
“What is your thinking like?”
!!
“I think your elder brother has no obligation to support you. Even now, he isn’t obligated to support your parents when they are not really old.”
Han Chuanzong was shocked. “What?”
“This is the way the world works – the strong prey on the weak, and everyone venerates the powerful. This world belongs to the powerful. Almost everyone idolizes capable people. The more capable you are, the less others can control you. Do you agree?”
Han Chuanzong understood that. “Right!”
“In terms of your family, your elder brother and sister-in-law are the capable ones. They can earn money to support your entire family. They are the most capable people in your family. Why should your parents control him?”
Han Chuanzong: “…”
Gu Ziang laughed and said, “So, what is our thinking like? If someone is good to you, you must learn to be grateful and also seize the opportunity. You have to learn to fight for the best conditions for yourself. Your elder brother and sister-in-law have earning capacity and are capable. If you want them to be good to you, then you have to treat them well first because, at the moment, you are weak and young. You have no choice but to depend on them.
“Your parents have no capabilities and will never achieve anything, so you must ensure that they don’t make trouble but only do things that are within their capacity.
“Han Chuanzong, consider this carefully. You must choose to build the relationship that is most beneficial to you. In your family, it seems that your Elder Sister will have the brightest future. She’s a university student and will have a good job in the future and many capable friends. Look, her boyfriend is my uncle!
“Would you have met us if not for your sister? Would you have the opportunity to see cars and aeroplanes? I’m sure your parents don’t have this ability?”
Han Chuanzong: “…”
“So? Your elder sister can give you a better life and broaden your horizons so you can meet even more capable people. Let me tell you! We help you and befriend you because your elder sister is my uncle’s girlfriend. If not for that, we wouldn’t be friends with you.
“So if your elder sister successfully marries my uncle and becomes my aunt, then my relationship with you will be even closer. We’ll be relatives! In the future, when your elder sister has grown more capable, your status will rise with hers. You will get to know my friends.”
Gu Ziang’s friends…
Han Chuanzong bit his lip. He really yearned for that.
Just Mo Yang alone made him very, very envious, not to mention other people.
The child was even younger than him!
Gu Ziang said, “I’m not trying to put you down. Right now, if I introduce you to my friends, they will ignore you because you are not part of their circle. But once your elder sister marries my uncle, things will be different. Do you understand?”
