434: Conflict and Moral Blackmail (2/2)



She stepped forward and pressed down on the third and fourth sisters of the Lü family, scolding them, "Kneel down before your aunt! You troublesome children have angered your aunt, and now she wants us all to go back to our hometown."

Upon hearing her eldest sister's words, the third and fourth sisters immediately knelt before Lü Yazhi.

Clutching at her trouser leg, crying and pleading, "Auntie, we were wrong! We'll never make you angry again! Please don't send us away!"

Lu Ermei also knelt down, hugging Lu Yazhi's legs, and said, "Auntie, you can hit me or scold me if you're angry, but don't drive us away. You're our only family now. If you don't care about us, what will we do in the future?"

"We can only rely on you, Auntie."

Watching them cry their hearts out, Wen Qiao remained indifferent, showing no emotion whatsoever.

She glanced indifferently at the Lü sisters.

"Shut up, all of you."

"You can't understand what my mother is saying, can you? Pack your things now and leave the Wu family. While my mother still has the patience, she'll find you a place to stay temporarily. Otherwise, do you want to sleep on the street?"

Hearing Wen Qiao's sharp voice, Lü Qian said in a low voice, "Cousin, don't scare them. We haven't been bullied in the county town all these years. Aunt is our only family in this world. How could she abandon us and let them sleep on the streets?"

"Moral blackmail?"

Wen Qiao looked at Lü Qian and questioned, "If I had known you would cling to my mother like a virus, I shouldn't have let her deal with you in the first place."

Lu Sanmei, who was too scared to cry because of Wen Qiao's words, let out a loud scream.

“That’s my aunt, my own aunt. She wouldn’t abandon us. You’re also our cousin. How could you be so cruel as to not let your aunt take care of us?”

"It must be because you told Auntie not to interfere with us that she doesn't want to interfere with us."

Wen Qiao didn't speak up to stop her, but Lü Yazhi scolded, "Third sister, what nonsense are you talking about? Your cousin never said I couldn't take care of you. She always said that I should teach you properly, because she was afraid you would go astray in the future. I didn't expect that you would actually miss your cousin."

"I guess I misjudged it."

“You call me aunt, and I pity you. Besides, I do have some money and can support you. But you can’t ask me for anything.”

"Get up, pack your things, and leave the Wu family immediately."

Seeing Lü Yazhi's resolute attitude, Lü Qian said, "Aunt, are you angry just because the children's money was stolen? I'll make up the difference. I'll make up double the amount my second sister and the others took. You can't kick us out."

Wen Qiao asked coldly and seriously, "Why can't we kick you out? Is this your home? This is the Wu family home, not your Lü family home."

"What do my daughter and I owe you? Why should we help you? You ungrateful people."

Lu Qian clenched her fists, gritted her teeth, and said resolutely, "We can leave, but we have to hand over the Lu family's heirloom recipe. It belongs to the Lu family and can only be passed down to members of the Lu family."

"Isn't Auntie able to earn so much money because of the Lü family's recipes?"

“You’ve made a good living by earning money from the recipes, but what about us? We, as the granddaughters of the Lü family, are still suffering.”

“Auntie, you keep saying you’re good to us, that you’re good to us, but how have you been good to us? If you really care about us, why don’t you provide us with accommodation and share some of the restaurant’s profits with us?”

"Even if we can't give her everything, we should still split it equally with my cousin."
