Jiang Xue didn't want to hear Ji Chen make excuses for them. "You took the money, so why did you leave the house in such a mess?"
Jiang Lai stared wide-eyed at Jiang Xue, "This was given to me by my brother-in-law, what's it to you?"
Jiang Xue's brows furrowed into a tight knot as she suppressed her intense revulsion and disgust.
Because she felt that talking to these people was a complete waste of time.
"Ji Chen, let's pack up and leave." Jiang Xue felt powerless in the face of such a family and had no ability to deal with this kind of thing.
Family matters are not career matters. Family matters are interconnected and form a complex network that is impossible to manage if you try to control it.
Jiang Xue had originally wanted to help Jiang Lai, but it seems she had really overthought things.
If he were to fend for himself in the future, it would be none of Jiang Xue's business.
However, since this body was given to her by Jiang Chunsheng and Xie Chunmei, she no longer harbored any hatred in her heart.
Jiang Xue and Ji Chen busied themselves cleaning the house inside and out. This was not just a simple cleaning; it was a complete severing of all ties with the family.
Seeing Jiang Xue working so dejectedly, Jiang Lai assumed that his tone of voice had intimidated her.
Little did they know that Jiang Xue had truly given up on them completely.
After cleaning, Jiang Xue took out a thousand yuan from her pocket. She had prepared it long ago, originally planning to find something for Jiang Lai to do. If he did a good job, Jiang Xue would pay him double.
She gave him a job and enough money, but judging from what she just saw, his family didn't deserve Jiang Xue's treatment. She saw through their true colors just now.
Some things are truly beyond our control.
Jiang Xue was too lazy to waste words with them. "This thousand yuan is for Xie Chunmei's medical treatment. I also have an agreement with you. Which of you will come and sign it?"
When Jiang Chunsheng saw the stack of a thousand yuan bill, his eyes were filled with nothing but greed.
Jiang Lai pounced on her, handed over the money, and grabbed her away, saying, "Sister, you're really good at business."
"Put it down." Jiang Xue's shout startled both of them.
"The agreement hasn't been signed yet, so why should we get paid?"
Jiang Lai picked up the agreement on the table and looked at it closely. It meant severing all ties.
"Why should you sever ties? Why should you leave me, the one who's bedridden, all alone?"
Jiang Lai, her face flushed and neck red, accused Jiang Xue as if the whole world owed them something.
Jiang Xue felt nauseous. She could sever ties with her parents, but she was only giving them money for raising her out of consideration for the most basic blood relation.
Jiang Xue sneered, "You won't sign, huh?" Then she reached for her pocket to stuff the money into her pocket.
"If Ji Chen ever gives us even a penny, we might as well quit."
After speaking to Ji Chen, Jiang Xue turned back to Jiang Lai and Jiang Chunsheng and said, "If you don't sign the agreement, you won't get the thousand yuan, and I will ignore you as before."
Jiang Xue felt that this kind of intimidation was far from enough. She looked at them calmly and said, "If you dare to cause trouble, I will find someone to beat you up. If that doesn't work, I can even break one of Jiang Lai's legs."
Jiang Xue's words weren't harsh; they meant that there was absolutely no other way. She had already backed down a lot, yet the two of them were still so ungrateful. If they were just ungrateful, that would be one thing, but if they dared to act recklessly in the future, she would definitely make them pay.
"I'll give you a thousand yuan, but you don't want it. If you come bothering me, a thousand yuan should be enough to hire a few people to beat you up. Five hundred yuan for a leg isn't unreasonable."
