When Yuan Yindi spoke , before Old Yuan could respond, Song, Yuan Wangdi’s wife, was the first to voice her objection.
"Father, if we move to Shu, how long will it be before I can see my second son who is in the army here in Sanchuan City?"
Song was genuinely anxious.
Mrs. Peng also nodded in agreement.
Yuan Wangdi and Yuan Laidi were serving in the Ba River Camp. Though most of the time they were stationed there, occasionally they could come home for a visit.
But if their family moved too far away, it would indeed be separated by mountains and rivers.
"Both of you, second son’s family and third son’s family, what do you think, where is suitable for us to move?"
Old Yuan immediately looked at his two daughters-in-law.
Song and Mrs. Peng exchanged glances but did not reply.
They just wanted to be closer to their men, but was this something they could decide?
According to their thoughts, the best solution was not to move, to stay in Shiqu Village.
It was originally not their problem, but rather their elder sister-in-law and nephew who liked to reach higher, causing problems. Why did they cause the trouble, but it was the innocent ones who had to suffer?
"Father, you decide then!"
Eventually, Song glanced at Old Yuan and chose to compromise.
As daughters-in-law, they had no right to be impudent in front of their parents-in-law.
Old Yuan did not provide an answer, but indicated that today’s discussion was concluded. As for where to move, there was no conclusion.
Or perhaps, Old Yuan already had an idea, but he had not expressed it.
"Eldest, stay a moment!"
As everyone from the Yuan Family dispersed, Old Yuan called out to his eldest son.
Yuan Pandi responded and sat back down in his original seat.
After everyone left, Old Yuan looked at his eldest son and said, "Eldest, your wife is planning to go with us, isn’t she?"
Yuan Pandi’s mood was indeed low.
The eldest son chose to stay and had his heart set on Miss Sheng, which was a pain Yuan Pandi could not erase.
Old Yuan smacked his lips and said, "Do you think after we move, your wife will tell Shougui where we are moving?"
"She will, won’t she?" Chapters first released on noⅴelfire.net
Yuan Pandi thought about it and gave an answer.
After years of marriage, Yuan Pandi understood Mrs. Li very well.
"Go have a good talk with your wife, if she plans to tell Shougui where we move, then tell her to stay here with Shougui!"
Decisive actions prevent endless troubles.
Back then, the Yuan Family could decisively leave Great Yin and choose to tow the line, and now he could decisively forsake this eldest grandson.
"Father, are we really not concerned with Shougui?"
"Until he thoroughly wakes up, we can’t care!"
Old Yuan looked seriously at his eldest son, "Eldest, I know you still can’t let go of Shougui in your heart. But, you must understand, without a proper fall, he won’t grow up!"
"Jade unpolished, cannot be useful!"
"A young tree, unpruned, can’t grow straight!"
"We’ve said what needs to be said, but he’s blind with lard in his heart."
Old Yuan looked intensely at his eldest son, "If you can’t bear it, you can also stay."
Having foregone the eldest grandson, he could also forego his eldest son.
The Yuan Family couldn’t be dragged into a pit by an unworthy descendant.
In face of these great matters, Old Yuan was truly ruthless.
