Chapter 17: Open the sunroof to speak clear words
No one had foreseen that in this kind of situation, there actually was someone who dared to be openly disobedient to the parents, the head of Chu family.
However, even if it wasn't antic.i.p.ated, there wasn't anyone who would take this action seriously.
And the person that did it wasn't any other person. It was done precisely by that young country b.u.mpkin that had just been invited back to Chu family not long ago.
Therefore, everyone was all startled on the spot.
Chu Qing-Yan slowly stood up, the fearful and timid expression on her face was already put away. What appeared on her face was a calm expression beyond her age, and a faint smiling expression.
Elder Madam Chu firmly slapped the chair's armrest, "Evil creature, what did you just say?"
Evil creature?
Chu Qing-Yan's mouth lifted up a few time, really thought she was Tang Seng (1)? That everyone would worship her?
"Great Aunt, Qing-Yun respects you as her elder, so these days, has show consideration by yielding to some degree. After all, 'respect the old and cherish the young' is a virtue pa.s.sed down since time immemorial. A pity, why did these three words 'cherish the young' not appear on your body? Is it possible that the Confucian code of ethics is only abided by the younger generation, and the older generation can willfully overlook and ignore it?" Chu Qing-Yan stopped concealing her own sharpness, naturally and unrestrainedly, she stood in the center of the hall. Her spine was no longer bent, now, if they once again wouldn't accept a compromise, then what awaited them was an even more severe penalty.
