Chapter 388 The Strange Old Man Yuan
Old Master Yuan snorted coldly, "It's easy for you to say, what misunderstanding? We've really suffered an undeserved disaster. Anyway, Fourth Brother isn't close to us, and who knows what he might do in the future? It's better to cut ties cleanly."
Village Chief Chen had no idea what he was thinking. "This is your brother."
"After things have come to this, can we still be brothers?" said Boss Yuan. "We discussed this in prison. Fourth Brother has always been restless since he was a child. Would a normal person secretly follow a murderer after witnessing him commit murder? He dared to. He dared this time, and who knows if he wouldn't be even more audacious and directly kill someone next time. Anyway, we can't afford to go through this kind of trouble. We are all honest people, and he is the only one who doesn't seem to be part of our family. It's better if we don't associate with each other in the future."
Upon hearing this, the rest of the Yuan family nodded in agreement.
Yuan's eldest daughter-in-law pointed at Lu Sixing and said, "Moreover, Lu is a jinx; who knows if she will bring us any more trouble?"
With a loud "bang," everyone heard a loud noise as soon as Yuan's wife finished speaking.
Looking in the direction of the sound, one could see that Shu Yu had broken a thick wooden board with one foot.
She looked up at Yuan's eldest daughter-in-law and sneered, "Try calling my aunt a jinx again! Who has she brought trouble to? You? You? Or you?"
She pointed at the Yuan family members one by one, and Yuan Shanchuan also raised his head and said, "Sister-in-law, you can criticize me if you want, it is indeed my fault in this matter. But my wife was also implicated because of me, she did nothing wrong. It's better not to talk nonsense in the future, so as not to make things too ugly for everyone."
"What...did I say something wrong?" Yuan's wife wasn't afraid of Yuan Shanchuan, but she had heard a lot about Shu Yu's shrewishness, so she was a little uneasy.
Shu Yu squinted. "What did you say right this time? Before, you all said my aunt was a jinx, which caused my fourth uncle to get into trouble and you were all arrested. Now it's proven that my fourth uncle is fine and standing here peacefully, yet you still want to pin this on her. What, do you think our Lu family has no one left?"
Lu Dasong and Da Niu took a step forward at the opportune moment.
Liang, hands on her hips, pointed at Yuan's wife and cursed, "That's right, that's right! I heard that you've been spreading rumors about my sister-in-law while she's not home, haven't you? It's like every little misfortune that happens to your family is her fault. You're really something, why don't you say that all the big and small misfortunes in Daxu Village since my sister-in-law married into the family are her doing?"
Yuan Da's wife couldn't win an argument with Shu Yu, let alone Liang Shi. Feeling a little scared, she quietly hid behind Yuan Da.
Yuan Da stepped forward and said, "Alright, enough of this nonsense. Anyway, we've come to this point, so severing ties is a done deal."
Shu Yu narrowed her eyes slightly. This Boss Yuan... is strange.
Village Chief Chen frowned and looked directly at the Yuan family elders, "What do you have to say?"
The two men looked at each other, their eyes darting around. After a long while, Old Yuan finally said, "We're too old for this. If they throw us in jail again, we might not make it out alive. I don't want to go into that kind of place."
"Village chief, please have pity on us! We just want to live out our old age in peace. If fourth brother is truly filial, then let us go, okay?"
