Chapter 1405 Obsession
In Su Village, according to the local customs, if the parents did not agree, the marriage could not take place. Mrs. Shen and Su Zhongshi did not approve of the marriage between Su Muze and Xiao Yu.
On that day, Su Muze, in a fit of anger, impulsively declared that he would sever ties with his parents, Su Zhongshi and his wife, and both were deeply enraged by Su Muze’s outburst.
At that moment, Mrs. Shen felt dizzy and nearly collapsed, but fortunately, Su Zhongshi was quick to support her. Su Muze’s infatuation with Xiao Yu was temporary, and he wasn’t a bad-hearted person. Usually, Su Muze was obedient at home. Seeing Mrs. An nearly faint from anger, Su Muze felt some regret.
However, the words had already been said, and plus, to marry Xiao Yu, Su Muze ran away from the Su Family without a second thought. In the village, a son who leaves the household would normally receive a certain portion of the house and family wealth, but since Su Muze was the one who initiated the severance of relations, his actions were considered unfilial in the village. Therefore, after breaking off with Su Zhongshi and his family, Su Muze received nothing. Aside from some clothing, all he had were some pieces of Silver that he had saved up himself.
Su Muze left with a bundle and, having nowhere to stay, temporarily settled at the docks where he worked and was provided food and lodging.
Before breaking off ties with the Su Family, Su Muze also spent most of his time living at the docks. Now that he had severed relations with the Su Family, it was only natural for him to stay at the docks.
Xiao Yu was unaware that Su Muze had broken ties with the Su Family. Hearing that Su Muze’s younger sister Su Yunjin was on good terms with the Prince Qi Residence’s Imperial Consort, and even the Old Princess Consort liked her, Xiao Yu thought of getting Su Muze to help her find a job at the Wang Residence. She had heard that working in the Wang Residence was not only respectable, the food and clothing were of the highest quality, and most importantly, the monthly wages were higher than other places. Working in the Wang Residence, one could earn at least two to three taels of Silver per month.
