Seeing the caller ID, Xu Mingzhi’s sword-like eyebrows froze and she hung up without hesitation.
However, Su Cunyi called again.
He knew that Xu Mingzhi was angry, but Su Cunyi still dared to commit the crime and persevered.
It seemed that he would not compromise easily this time.
Just as Su Cunyi called for the fourth time and Xu Mingzhi was about to hang up for the fourth time, a fair hand reached over and took Xu Mingzhi’s phone away.
“Baby...” Xu Mingzhi said hesitantly.
Su Ji put the phone to her ear. “I’ll answer it for you.”
Xu Mingzhi was about to speak again, but the call was already connected.
This time, when Su Cunyi heard his daughter’s voice, he heaved a long sigh of relief.
“That’s great. I’m relieved that you’re answering the phone personally. Your mother has a bad temper. She won’t listen to anything I say.”
He didn’t mean to blame Xu Mingzhi, but he felt helpless.
After being bombarded for so long, Su Cunyi was actually not angry. From this point of view, he could indeed be considered to have a good temper.
Xu Mingzhi’s jaw tensed up slightly as he watched her daughter answer the call from her scumbag father. She clenched her fists.
The more magnanimous the scumbag was, the more it seemed like she had gone overboard just now.
Wasn’t this just trying to gain favor in front of his daughter?
She choked for a moment before she said, “Su Ji...”
He felt that his relationship with his daughter had improved a lot recently. After his daughter got married and became pregnant, she didn’t seem to be as sharp as before. He didn’t ask his daughter to come to visit them on New Year’s Eve, but just to take up some of her time to worship the ancestors. Moreover, this was also to pray for his daughter and the baby. Why was it so difficult to understand?
Su Cunyi was very patient and tried to reason with her. “It’s just to visit grandma. She specially prepared some New Year’s money for you and even asked for a safety talisman for you at the temple...”
“I’ll pick that up tomorrow,” Su Ji said into the phone unhurriedly. “We’re having dinner at around eight, so we don’t have time.”
“Just because of dinner?” Su Cunyi suppressed his emotions. “Su Ji, how can something like dinner be compared to worshipping ancestors? Worshipping our ancestors on New Year’s Eve is the most important thing!”
He paused at the end because he seemed to hear his daughter laugh on the other end of the phone.
The smile was very light and sarcastic. Su Cunyi didn’t know if he had heard wrongly.
“Is it important?” Su Ji slowly reached her other hand into her pocket, the smile on her lips not reaching her eyes. “I don’t think it’s very important.”
Su Cunyi asked, “what?”
“Since it’s important, why is it that Su Junye, the only son, is always the representative to pay respects to the ancestors on this day every year? Only this year...you thought of me?”
The two ends of the phone fell silent.
Su Cunyi held his phone tightly and pursed his lips in shame.
His daughter was right.
It was a rule passed down from generation to generation in the Su family that only the males in the family could enter. It was naturally the same every year on New Year’s Eve.
Su Cunyi admitted that he was once very traditional.
“Su Ji...” He gritted his teeth and said with difficulty, “Give me a chance to correct my mistake. Today, I’ve also made it clear to Junye that only you are qualified to worship the Su family’s ancestral hall.”
