Having such a brother really leaves one speechless.
Don’t think that only poor families favor sons over daughters. The way rich families favor sons can be even more interesting. Rich people have money, so they won’t only give money to sons and not daughters like poor families do. How do the rich show favoritism to sons? Just look at Zhang Wei’s family:
Zhang Wei’s older brother doesn’t study. When Zhang Wei’s parents talk to him, he doesn’t listen, and they can’t do anything about him, but they still give him money.
Zhang Wei loves to study, wants to achieve good grades, and her parents support that. However, if her brother disturbs her studies, her parents will say, bear with it a bit, your brother is in a bad mood.
As for the future inheritance, Zhang Wei’s aunt doesn’t even need to think: my brother’s property will definitely go to his son.
When Grandma Zhang Wei was hospitalized, she wanted Zhang Wei to return home; otherwise, she would be considered unfilial.
As for Zhang Wei’s older brother, forget it, everyone knows Grandma Zhang Wei doesn’t really like this grandson who doesn’t study and fears he’ll cause trouble.
If you ask the old lady, leave the inheritance to the granddaughter or grandson?
The old lady, like Zhang Wei’s aunt, doesn’t need to think: to the grandson.
Look at that period when the old lady was in the hospital, the husband wasn’t around, the grandson wasn’t there, nor the other grandson. Who took care of the old lady? The main caregivers were the daughter, daughter-in-law, and the granddaughter who had to return. The son occasionally came to sign his name and made decisions on behalf of the father. Isn’t this family starting to resemble the Old Xie Family?
What does this indicate? Favoring sons over daughters has little to do with being rich or poor, or cultured or uncultured. Isn’t favoring sons over daughters in royal families just like this? They offer their daughters enough respect, but all the benefits go to the sons.
Outside, everyone in the Zhang family knows they can boast about Zhang Wei since she has good grades and is studying abroad. Zhang Wei’s brother, from a young age, is a disgrace and they never mention him. It leads others to mistakenly believe Zhang Wei is the only child in the Zhang family. Only Zhang Wei knows, ultimately, everything at home will go to her brother and not her.
Further, take Zhang Wei’s mother for example. She knows her son isn’t reliable, so she encourages her daughter to go abroad hoping her daughter’s successes will elevate her. Yet, when it comes to a choice between her son and daughter, it’s clear from the last time when Zhang Wei’s mother refused to listen to her daughter’s advice and didn’t divorce, that she will always side with her husband and son.
"Her dad forced her to return home, Xie Wanying. You should ask yourself if her dad was influenced by you." Hu Hao said.
How could she have the ability to command Zhang Wei’s father to do anything? Student Hu Hao loves to fantasize too much. Xie Wanying revealed her foreknowledge from her rebirth: "Zhang Wei will have better development if she returns home rather than staying abroad."
The truth is, Zhang Wei’s field of study requires backing; she won’t fare well alone abroad. Family issues can’t be solved by running away. Does Zhang Wei think going abroad and admiring foreign things will help her escape all this? Impossible.
The most surprising thing is which part. As a beneficiary of a family that favors sons, Student Hu Hao never thought to oppose his family’s behavior, and yet he sympathizes with and falls for a girl hurt by a similar family dynamic. Do you think this girl could ever love him back?
Now rushing to throw mud on Student Xie to cover up these facts? It won’t work.
Hu Hao’s face turned pale. Perhaps his sympathy for Zhang Wei is just sympathy for himself because, like Zhang Wei, he can’t escape familial financial support. Everything he wears and uses wasn’t created by himself; it’s all quite hollow.
He actually has even less confidence than Student Xie, who insists on walking her own path of struggle.
