Chapter 833 - 781: Every Family Has Its Troubles
Master Qin!
Yes.
In the midst of turmoil, Jiang Cuiping subconsciously used Master Qin as her way of addressing Qin Fan.
That trembling, stuttering tone was enough to show how intense her inner fear was!
Someone even figures like Lin Wending have to treat with respect, wanting to ruin their family?
Saying it’s like crushing ants wouldn’t be an exaggeration at all!
"What?"
Qin Fan and Jiang Yino didn’t need to speak.
The old lady Jiang spoke first on behalf of the two, jokingly.
"Mom, I-I-I!"
Stammering with difficulty, Jiang Cuiping’s panicked gaze kept moving between Qin Fan and Jiang Yino’s faces.
"Aunt, just say what you want to say!" Jiang Yino shook her head with a smile, lightly and indifferently.
"Yino, I’m sorry. Aunt was wrong! I shouldn’t have spoken like that before! You know Aunt isn’t highly educated; nothing good could come out of her mouth. So, please don’t hold it against Aunt. I’m just a crude housewife, forgive Aunt!"
Anxiously staring at Jiang Yino, Jiang Cuiping clenched the tablecloth secretly, speaking nervously in one breath.
With Jiang Cuiping’s words.
Jiang Cuixing, Jiang Kai, and Wei Zhifeng all swallowed as they stared eagerly at Jiang Yino.
They didn’t speak, but Jiang Cuiping’s words represented them.
However, what they didn’t expect was.
Jiang Yino didn’t speak yet.
The old lady Jiang responded again, "Where were you earlier? If it weren’t for Mr. Lin’s arrival to say things you didn’t know, would your faces full of disdain for the poor and love for the rich be able to say these things? Haha- Cuiping, Cuiying, and Da Kai, you truly disappoint me enough! Over the years, how you’ve treated A-Yuan’s family, did you think the old woman didn’t see it? How did A-Yuan treat you back then, did you all forget? I originally didn’t want to say those things, but since you’ve brought it up, I’m not afraid to speak!
Cuiping, when you two earned your first pot of gold, didn’t A-Yuan help you a lot? Later, because Shufen was unwell, A-Yuan even declined his wages to take care of her, and you still held a grudge against him! Leading to cold language and various expressions over the years, boiling down to you despising A-Yuan’s couple for not earning much money and wanting to act superior in front of them!
Da Kai, when you opened your car wash, who helped you network and bring in clients? The old woman isn’t muddleheaded; I remember you even promised to give A-Yuan shares, but then wings got sturdy, and you kicked A-Yuan out! I just want to ask you, search your conscience, has it been at peace over these years?
Cuiying, when you and your spouse’s business failed, who endured pressure from their spouse and took out savings to help you through difficult times? Indeed, the money wasn’t much, two to three thousand, later paid back with interest not just the principal! This was well done, but I didn’t expect that you and your spouse wouldn’t show gratitude! Ignored past wounds once healed and joined forces with your eldest sister to step on A-Yuan, huh!
These family scandals, if spoken out, who knows how outsiders would laugh! I’ve held them in my heart for a long time, but today with everyone here, I’m letting it out. Let me ask you, you ungrateful wretches, are you acting like humans? Talking about apologies and forgiveness? Do you feel ashamed? If Mr. Lin hadn’t revealed Xiao Fan’s family background, you would probably still be relentlessly teasing Xiao Fan and Yino!
Forget about apologies; as for forgiveness, just forget it! You’re not worthy of them forgiving you! And rest assured, I know what you’re worried about, but as long as the old woman has one day left to live, they won’t repay you! Both sides of the hand are flesh; you’re ungrateful wretches who are pieces of my flesh! So your concerns can be alleviated, from now on, just walk your own path!
Lastly, one more thing, I know you organized this birthday banquet for me so generously with the intention for the old house in the city, but I’ll tell you, give it up, the ownership of the old house has been legally transferred to Yino’s name already, so the old house now belongs to Yino!"
Looking calmly at her children.
The old lady Jiang belittled them all with words that had been stifled for a long time.
But in these words, there was no anger left.
That anger, those grievances felt for A-Yuan, had long faded with the passage of time.
At the same time, she had lost hope for these children!
The old lady Jiang’s lengthy speech fell silent.
The atmosphere plunged into a silent stillness.
Except for Jiang Yuan’s family and outsiders Qin Fan and Lin Wending.
All of the Jiang family’s relatives turned pale.
If it wasn’t for Lin Wending revealing Qin Fan’s identity.
Just hearing the old woman transfer the old house to Jiang Yino, these people would surely cause a scene!
But now, even if they wanted to make a fuss, they didn’t have the guts for it!
And that’s why the old woman publicized this secret.
Otherwise, she’d be pushing Jiang Yino into the storm, making her the target of public criticism.
This bit of reasoning, she understood!
After speaking, amidst the silence, the old lady looked at Qin Fan again, saying, "Xiao Fan, you’ve seen their faces clearly, and heard my words, right? I have no other request, I don’t ask about your origins, nor about how intimidating your background is, I only hope you won’t wrong Yino, won’t deceive her! You should understand, with these relatives, Yino and her parents endure so much targeting and bullying! With me here, it’s still manageable, but once the old woman closes her eyes forever, just A-Yuan’s kind family alone cannot handle these bandits!"
In such a context, labeling her children as bandits.
Shows how utterly disappointed the old lady Jiang was with them.
"Grandma, how can this be! You transferred the old house to me, how- how is this right!"
Beside her, Jiang Yino, coming back to her senses, urgently protested.
She was not someone driven by greed or profit.
Regarding the old house, she never had any undue expectations.
What she wanted was just family happiness, nothing more.
As long as money wasn’t a worry, enough to deal with urgent needs was sufficient.
Suddenly receiving the valuable old house from her grandmother, she truly felt unqualified to bear it.
After all, it’s a misnomer and undeserved!
"It doesn’t matter if it’s appropriate or not! How things are divided and to whom it gets transferred, it’s my decision alone! What I say goes, they have no right to object!" The old lady Jiang declared firmly.
Jiang Cuiping’s brothers and sisters suppressed their inner resentment and dared not speak.
They all succumbed to the invisible intimidation Qin Fan brought.
But their unwillingness to speak didn’t mean the younger generation was the same.
Jiang Kai’s two sons rose in voice from the nearby table.
"Grandma, Jiang Yino will marry someday, and a married daughter is spilled water. You’re letting an outsider inherit our Jiang family’s old house, is this appropriate? Doesn’t this chill our hearts?"
"My brother’s right, Grandma, you’re being too absurdly biased! Jiang Yino is with someone wealthy, isn’t she? His water and fruit cost tens of thousands each, they don’t lack this old house! If you give her the old house, what will we do! No, you can’t give her the old house!"
