Chapter 1776 Meng Han Clarifies

Tao's ten-year-old cousin's words were like a series of awls, piercing Tao's body and leaving her covered in wounds.

Tao was indeed angry that Tao Feili had betrayed Meng Xiaoshu and caused her husband's death. But she thought it was because Tao Feili was cowardly and afraid of death, and was forced to do so to save his own life; he was somewhat powerless to do so. At least, he was sincere towards her as his sister.

However, her nephew's words shattered her long-held illusions. It turned out that in the eyes of Tao Feili and his wife, she was a slave of the Tao family. It was unacceptable for her to live better than Tao Feili. She was stupid and ungrateful, and deserved to be disliked by her children and disliked by both sides.

In her brother's heart, Tao Shi was not even as good as the weeds on the roadside, but she cherished Tao Feili like a treasure.

Meng Han told Shu Yu, "My brother was furious at the time. He drew his soft sword from his waist and held it to that ungrateful brat's neck. Only then did the ungrateful brat dare to curse anymore and obediently apologized to my mother."

Although Meng Qi disliked reading and often went against his uncle, he was not a short-tempered person; in fact, in some ways, he was quite mild-mannered.

That was the first time Meng Han had seen her brother so fierce. The soft sword held against a child of about ten years old was enough to show that Meng Qi had reached his limit.

Hearing those foul words, Meng Han was equally unable to bear it. Seeing that the Tao family uncles and neighbors standing next to him were still on the Tao family's side, criticizing Meng Qi for holding a sword to a child's neck, especially at Tao Feili's funeral, where the other party was Tao Feili's only son.

Meng Han immediately cursed and revealed that Tao Feili had fabricated a story about the Meng family possessing treasure to the bandits in order to save his own life, and was eventually scared to death.

Everyone present was stunned upon hearing this, and then turned to look at Zhang and his group in disbelief.

Meng Han sneered, "That's when I found out that Zhang had been spreading rumors that the bandits knew the Meng family had treasures, so they deliberately kidnapped my uncle to lure my father out. In the end, when my uncle and cousin went to the black market to rescue him, they deliberately left my uncle there as bait, which is how he was killed."

Good heavens, not only did they pin Tao Feili's death on the Meng family, but they also revealed that the Meng family possessed a treasure. As a result, the Meng family is sure to face a lot of trouble in the future.

Fortunately, Meng Han's explanation made many people realize what was going on.

Zhang tried to explain, but Meng Han pointed to Tao Feili's body and told them to find a coroner to find out the cause of her uncle's death.

Zhang naturally refused. The elders of the Tao family believed Meng Han's words, but after all, it was a shameful matter for the Tao family. If outsiders knew the true cause of Tao Feili's death, what face would the Tao family have left?

Therefore, the elders of the Tao family used the excuse of not wanting to disturb the deceased's rest to brush off the matter of finding a coroner.

However, this only made it seem like they were trying to cover something up. The neighbors had lived in the area for a long time, and they all knew Tao Feili's character. Moreover, Meng Kuan had always had an excellent reputation, so everyone naturally trusted him more.

"Later we brought my mother back, and we didn't get involved in the funeral arrangements for my uncle."

Meng Han sighed, "My mother has become increasingly listless since she came back."

Shu Yu didn't feel comfortable offering her opinion on the matter, but simply said a few words of comfort.

Just then, a loud 'bang' of shattering sound came from ahead.
