“Draw a clear line?”Yun Xiangxiang was a little surprised.
“In an ordinary family, blood and kinship are very important. If there is no deep hatred between brothers and sisters, they will never go so far as to break off their marriage.”Song Mian’s eyes were a little sudden, “But in a family like ours, the blood ties are not that deep.”
“For the family assets?”Yun Xiangxiang suddenly felt a little sad.
“To be more precise, it should be for the family assets.”Song Mian Corrected Yun Xiangxiang’s wording, “It’s not like what you think. For the sake of money and status, we lose our humanity. But for a big family like ours, we need the strongest person to be able to support us. “The reason why the song family is an exception is because the direct line of descent has withered. For example, the Tang family has several direct lines of descent, so the siblings have been rivals since they were young.
“The family won’t stop this kind of competition, because only in this way can we compete for the person who can bear the family business the most.”
The reality was this kind of cruelty, but this kind of cruelty was unavoidable.
There were many descendants, and if each of them became talented, then the strong would not easily yield to the strong. The struggle was inevitable.
Perhaps at the beginning, they were still thinking about blood ties, and they stopped fighting. However, if they clashed too many times, it was inevitable that they would go off without control. In the end, it was even possible for Jade and stone to perish together.
Some things were common in the same environment, so they did not seem to be illogical.
In a family like theirs, it was common for a mother to turn against her own kin. For example, Tang Suran and Tang Zhiyu were just sticking to their own ideas and not hurting each other. This was already extremely rare. There were some who loved each other, but it was really too few.
If Tang Suran did not know about her brother’s ambition at the beginning, she would have said that she was in love with Yun Xiangxiang when her brother approached her repeatedly. Tang Suran had said the same to others, but it did not mean that she was thinking the same.
Since she had seen through everything, she decided to be on good terms with Yun Xiangxiang. That was the relationship between women. It would not change because of the conflict between men.
Whoever won and who lost would depend on their own abilities.
Tang Zhiyu had won, so Tang Suran would not feel that her brother had let down song Mian. If song Mian won, she would not feel that song Mian owed her brother.
“Alright, it seems like I still have a lot to learn.”At the very least, she had to be able to remain calm when she encountered something similar in the future.
“You don’t have to worry about it.”Song Mian Held Yun Xiangxiang’s hand. “Give the choice to the Tang family, and let me see their attitude.”
Tang Zhiyu was doomed this time. Master Tang regarded Tang Zhiyu as his successor. It meant a lot to master tang to touch him.
This was because Tang Zhiyu had nothing to fear. He knew that Yun Xiangxiang was song Mian’s fiancée, but he still boasted shamelessly that the man and the woman were not married. He continued to Pester Yun Xiangxiang. Although master Tang had punished him.., however, it was all bark and no bite. It could never be seen from Tang Zhiyu’s injury.
If master Tang could not get over this hurdle, or if he had any thoughts about Song Mian, he would take the initiative to stop Tang Suran from becoming Yun Xiangxiang’s bridesmaid. If he did not, then.., song Mian would have no choice but to put the Tang family out of the crosshairs.
If Master Tang did not stop him, the other families would also see clearly that the song family and the Tang family were still on good terms. This would prevent some people from feeling itchy and taking the opportunity to fan the flames.
Yun Xiangxiang naturally understood what song Mian meant. She asked, “Aren’t you afraid that Master Tang will put on a show of martial arts?”
The situation was more favorable than the others. If they did not stop Tang Suran, perhaps they would only keep a low profile on the surface.
“If we don’t keep a low profile on the surface, there are many times when we can’t ignore many things. The others also don’t dare to take a gamble and get involved. If we’re not careful, we’ll be exposed.”Song Mian did not care whether it was a matter of face or not.
“Mr. Song, I’m telling you now. In the future, when it comes to family matters, you can just go around me.”Yun Xiangxiang thought that if she played tricks with these people, she might not survive more than two episodes.
“It’s painful to marry your wife, not tiring to marry her.”Song Mian didn’t forget to sweet-talk her.
“At least you know your place.”Yun Xiangxiang looked at her with satisfaction and then said, “But I’m still capable of arranging family banquets and moving people around.”
In the past, the song family didn’t have a mistress, and there weren’t many people in charge of the family. There were some occasions that she could choose not to attend, and they understood the song family’s difficulties. However, now that she had married into the song family, she would still attend the inevitable occasions.
She couldn’t be a maverick.
No matter how powerful the song family was, if they didn’t care about the reputation of the other eight or nine families, when the other families joined forces to divide up the song family, would the song family be able to avoid trouble easily?
No one could do without connections, and these had to be managed with care.
“As long as my wife doesn’t mind the trouble.”Of course, Song Mian would not look down on anyone.
Yun Xiangxiang leaned on his shoulder, looked up at him, and smiled sweetly at him. “As long as you can find time to accompany me, I’m happy to be with you to spread dog food everywhere.”
No matter how much she disliked the occasion or how much she disliked it, she felt that being with song Mian was heaven.
Song Mian did not reply. He lowered his head and kissed her forehead.
The two of them sat quietly for a while before song Mian asked, “Mi Lai was involved in this matter. Although her skills are not up to par, her intention to harm you is the truth. Do you want me to do it?”
“I have already sent people to investigate her. I will always find her weak spot.”Yun Xiangxiang’s meaning was obvious.
She wanted to do it herself. She would only be satisfied if she took revenge personally.
Of course, she was not as resourceful as song Mian. If she fought Mi Lai, she might even suffer a little. That did not matter. She needed a sparring partner.
Just like practicing martial arts, one must learn martial arts from oneself in order to be truly powerful. During the learning process, one had to throw and hit.
Song Mian already had the song family on her. Since he said that his appearance was only to add color to her, and not to be a hindrance to her, then she also hoped that her appearance would bring him more sweetness, less burden.
She nodded with a smile. Song Mian’s fingertips followed Yun Xiangxiang’s hair as she approached them with gentle footsteps.
In the blink of an eye, Song Yao returned and stood behind Song Mian. He first said to Yun Xiangxiang, “I have already ordered the ingredients that young madam ordered.”
“Thank you for your hard work.”Yun Xiangxiang had both her hands on song Mian’s shoulders. Her chin was still resting on the back of her hands. She smiled at Song Yao.
Song Yao expressed that it was not hard work. He turned to Song Mian with a serious expression and said, “Young master, the person is here. Do you want to interrogate him personally?”
Yun Xiangxiang raised her eyebrows slightly. “The person who tampered with him? He was only arrested today. Did Tang Zhiyu not notice anything amiss?”
Yun Xiangxiang thought that song Mian already had the person in his hands.
Song Mian lifted his lips and pulled Yun Xiangxiang up. “Bring him to you to have a look.”
