This was not the first time that Han Shu had opposed them. Father and Mother Han had noticed that this son was growing increasingly disobedient. He often contradicted them for no reason.
Mother Han said angrily, "Han Shu, what's the matter with you recently? You're getting out of hand. You contradict everything I say. Do you have any respect for your mother? Your younger brother is so young. He's the future of the Han family. As his elder brother, of course you must help him. You…"
"Haven't I helped him?" Han Shu retorted. "For years, Little Qin and I have done all the work in and around the house. What have you done since you gave birth to Chuanzong? Since you think that Chuanzong is the family's future, then you shouldn't rely on me.
"You've retired at such a young age, and I carry all the household burdens alone. So what if I buy clothes for my daughter? It's all right to buy clothes for my younger brother, but not for my daughter?"
