Chapter 844: Chapter 844: Do You Really Believe That Yourself?
Su Man looked coldly at Wen Siyuan, sat down on the sofa, and said, "Wen Yue has been spreading that I am a bad woman with Wen Yi and Wen Yu outside. You know this. If it weren’t for this, would I gradually grow cold-hearted towards them?"
"..."
Wen Siyuan was silent. After a while, his expression softened slightly: "But you are, after all, an adult. Is it meaningful to take it seriously with Yueyue and the others, who are children?"
"It’s true that I am an adult, but I am also their elder, the wife you married, the mistress of this house. Shouldn’t they respect me?
Not to mention anything else, just talking about the way they address me, until now, they haven’t even called me ’mom.’ Even calling me ’Auntie Su,’ have you asked Wen Yue and her sisters if they’ve called me that in the past two years?"
"How could they not have called you that? Every time I come back on leave, which of Wen Yue and the others hasn’t called you Auntie Su?"
"That’s just for show in front of you. Every time you return to the unit, they immediately change their behavior. They either talk to the air or pretend to be mute."
"Have you not put on a show in front of me?"
As soon as Wen Siyuan said this, Su Man’s face turned awkward, looking quite put out. He stared directly at her, and his tone carried emotion:
"When I’m at home, every meal you cook is quite sumptuous. Doesn’t this create an illusion for me? And this illusion is that you’re telling me my father’s children are well taken care of. So what is the reality?
My eyes were deceived by you. The children can only have meat to eat when I return home. Even boiled eggs, you haven’t given them in the morning.
Yueyue and the others are still young. Since you came into the family later, it’s inevitable that the sisters will be sensitive, but they are also the easiest to feel sincerity and insincerity. If you want them to accept you from the bottom of their hearts,
you know, without me saying, you should first treat them sincerely. I believe it won’t take long for the children to naturally change their attitude towards you."
"Do you really believe that yourself?"
Su Man sneered, "When I first entered the door, I showed concern for them, cared about their studies. Wasn’t that sincere? But my sincerity was considered insincere. Is this what I deserve?"
Wen Siyuan was frustrated: "Then what exactly do you want?"
"What can I want? What else can I do?"
Su Man kicked the ball back, and hearing this, Wen Siyuan’s face darkened: "No matter what you’re thinking, from now on, I don’t want you to be stingy with Wen Yue and the others when it comes to food. After all, they are my children!"
After a brief pause, Wen Siyuan continued, "And let me be clear, if one day the children faint because of lack of nutrition, you might as well find a new place for yourself!"
With those words, Wen Siyuan got up and went to the study.
"You..."
Watching Wen Siyuan’s departing back, Su Man was so angry that she was panting heavily.
After a long while, still unable to quell her anger, she couldn’t help but go to the study to continue discussing it with Wen Siyuan.
With a loud "bang," the study door was pushed open abruptly.
"You went to pick up Wen Yue and the others from school at noon with the couple next door, didn’t you?!"
Before Wen Siyuan could speak, Su Man burst out again, "Was it because they instigated you that you are taking it out on me with Wen Yue’s issue?"
Wen Siyuan closed the book in his hand, his face dark: "Are you deliberately trying to irritate me?"
Su Man: "I am already upset, and this upset is caused by you! Ever since that vixen moved in next door, your attitude towards me has changed. Today, everything was fine before you left the house, but after you went to pick up the kids with that couple, you didn’t even come home directly, and as soon as you came back, you vented your anger on me. Do you see me as an easy target?"
