1285 Everyone Hates Him

Her sister-in-law’s hatred toward Tian Shouyi was not only because he had many affairs outside. Most importantly, he was so cold and heartless toward their only daughter.

It was no wonder that Tian Shouyi was fond of his son-in-law. The latter had the same temperament as him.


When they were newly married, Tian Tian was very unhappy and pulled a long face every day. She had agreed to marry to spite her lover and also out of the pressure from her biological father.


Initially, this son-in-law cared very much for Tian Tian. After all, Tian Tian was good-looking and had a good family background. The elders in the family liked Tian Tian very much and sang rare praises that he had finally done something good by marrying the right woman.


After some time, as the second generation of a government official, how would he spare so much thought and effort on Tian Tian? He simply continued to indulge in wine and pleasure outside. He was multiple times worse than when he was before marriage. There were many occasions where he had three women taking turns to sleep with him in one day.


Tian Tian was furious after she found out. She argued with him and suffered a fall during the brawl. As a result, she had a miscarriage when she was just two months pregnant.


Thereafter, Tian Tian suffered excessive bleeding. After the surgery, it was very unlikely that Tian Tian would become a mother in the future.


However, Tian Tian had a ‘son’. According to sources, she not only had ‘son’ but also a few girls to pick from if she wanted daughters. Of course, these children were definitely her husband’s biological children. At most, they did not come out from her womb.


The situation was already as such. Tian Tian wanted to have a divorce but Tian Shouyi refused to let her do so. He said the alliance between the two families would be gone upon a divorce. Furthermore, Tian Tian could not become pregnant anymore and could no longer have her own child. On the other hand, if she did not get a divorce, Tian Tian could have children, be it a son or a daughter. If she did not like the child, she could still exchange for another one.


Someone would support Tian Tian financially when she was old then.


She was already of this age and her health was not good. If she were to get a divorce, she would be able to get anything that she wished for. Her life could not possibly be better than it was before marriage?


Hence, she should be more abiding.


Anyway, Tian Tian could forget about returning to the Tian family if she were to get a divorce. He would not accept a divorced daughter such as Tian Tian and would not let her enter the house. It was not only so. After he knew that his daughter had thoughts of a divorce, Tian Shouyi even behaved like a good father-in-law by sounding his son-in-law out. He asked him not to keep a tight watch on his daughter’s money and never let Tian Tian have too much money.


This was the only way. When Tian Tian did not have money and could not return to her maternal family, certainly, she would not dare to get a divorce.


He was most aware of his own daughter’s situation. He had spent so much money on Tian Tian since she was a child. Tian Tian had never endured many hards.h.i.+ps before, not when she was living with her maternal family, and all the more not in her in-law family. She was never short of money and did not know the pain of being poor.


Given this, he was certain that his daughter did not have the confidence to get a divorce with his son-in-law.


In fact, when she heard Tian Shouyi treating their only daughter in this way, Mother Tian was shaking with anger. She did not believe that there was such a father in this world.


Mother Tian just found out about the situation of Tian Shouyi’s family. For the sake of bringing Tian Dong and Qiu Chenxi together, he had already laid his hands on Tian Shouxin and his family. Mother Tian did not even have a chance to remind her husband and son.


Besides the old master and himself, Tian Shouyi was heartless to everyone else. Hence, everyone around Tian Shouyi hated him to the core.


“Mom, don’t be like this. Tian Tian knows what to do. She doesn’t want elder uncle to lead such a good life. It has been so many years. This is definitely not the first time that elder uncle did this. He will not only do this to his own family. Most likely, he is corrupted. It may be quite hard for us to deal with him alone. The good thing is that we have the Zhai family.” Tian Dong took a deep breath. He felt ashamed to have such relatives. However, he would have returned to the home country for the sake of Hua Hua latest by last year even if the old master was not unwell.


Tian Shouxin was calm and not as affected as his wife. “Dongzi is right. He will be marrying Zhai Hua very soon. We are also sincere in becoming in-laws with the Zhai family. We don’t have the intention to make use of them. However, my brother is too much. He should be prepared that we will take revenge on him.”


His family alone would not be able to compete with and win against his brother. However, with the Zhai family, it was a matter of time before his brother would lose miserably.


It was also because of this that his elder brother was so afraid of letting Dongzi marry Zhai Hua.


Could Tian Shouxin not understand his brother? Many years ago, his brother was afraid that he would go into politics and over-s.h.i.+ne him. Hence, Tian Shouyi fawned on the old master and asked the latter to force Tian Shouxin into business.


Although they were biological brothers, it was not right for him to do that. No matter how close they were, he would cause enmity between them with such a din.


He said that he did not harbor any resentment toward Tian Shouyi. It was a pity that Tian Shouyi was guilt-conscious and did not believe him.


Tian Shouyi was afraid that Tian Shouxin would make use of the Zhai family’s power and influence to go against him after the latter became in-laws with Chief Zhai. As such, Tian Shouyi wanted to arrange Dongzi’s marriage before Tian Shouxin could do that. In this way, he would have wrecked Tian Shouxin’s plan for revenge and also made use of Dongzi’s future happiness to derive benefit for himself.


This was killing two birds with one stone. Similar to the past, Tian Shouyi had it all planned out to his favor.


This time, Tian Shouxin finally hated his elder brother to the core. His brother did not spare any mercy for his closest kin. He could not wait to exploit all the usefulness from his kin, hammer and shatter their bones and see if he could get some oil out of them.


Whose heart was not made of flesh?


Tian Shouyi was so heartless. Tian Shouxin was not willing to admit that such a person was his twin brother.


As for Old Master Tian, he was already so old and a great-grandfather, yet he continued to stir up troubles. Tian Shouxin knew that he did not need to do anything about his father, whose health wasn’t good. Given the old master’s character, he might even court his own death one day.


Tian Shouyi found out from Qiu Chenxi that his plan had failed. Tian Dong not only met Zhai Hua but they were also in marriage talks.


Tian Shouyi flared up on the spot. He made a call to Tian Shouxin and gave him an order. “Brother, if you still acknowledge me as your elder brother and dad as your father, no matter what method you use, only that lady from the Qiu family can be my niece-in-law. It cannot be Zhai Hua. Understand?!”


“So what if I do not acknowledge, so be it! As you wis.h.!.+” Would he be afraid of severing kins.h.i.+p ties?


Tian Shouyi’s round and plump face swelled in crimson. “Brother, what kind of att.i.tude is this? Don’t think that you can be on your own now that your wings have hardened. Let me tell you. It’s not so easy to establish yourself in the capital! If not for my help, would Dongzi do so well in his business? He relies on my help entirely.”


“Alright, cut your nonsense.”
