Wu Qiaolan licked her lips, and her anger subsided by half.
Wu Qiaoxin smiled and then looked at An Le, giving her a warning, whether intentionally or unintentionally.
"You can't just say things like that, it won't do my parents any good for their reputation if it gets out."
It's not good for our family either; it could easily damage the harmony and relationships within the family.
You absolutely must not say such nonsensical things in front of outsiders.
If I ever hear my little cousin say such hurtful things about my parents again, no matter how close we are, I absolutely cannot let it go.
I'll let it slide this time because you're young and don't know any better, but don't talk nonsense like that again.
Anle raised an eyebrow, seemingly unconcerned. Ha, so she was caught red-handed and got angry?
It seems there's no mistake about this. Judging from her reaction, she's already certain, which is enough for her to imagine what's going on!
The truth is that her cold-blooded aunt, who didn't recognize any of her relatives, dug a hole and buried her own sister.
They probably reaped a lot of benefits from this, right?
Otherwise, he wouldn't have done such a despicable and wicked thing as plotting against his own sister!
Oh!
This family is truly bizarre and shameless, which broadened her horizons and opened her eyes to a whole new world.
If she can scheme against her own sister, what else is there that her aunt wouldn't do?
"My older cousin is right. What's real can't become fake, and what's fake can't become real."
So, cousins, what are you afraid of?
Everyone's eyes are sharp; whether I'm serious or joking, it's obvious at a glance." Anle's half-smile fell on Wu Qiaoxin's face.
"Big cousin, don't you think so?"
Wu Qiaoxin glanced at An Le and smiled brightly.
"My little cousin is still young and doesn't understand. You'll understand the power of public opinion when you grow up."
Anle smiled and replied.
"Big cousin, don't underestimate me just because I'm young. I know a lot of things."
I am particularly familiar with the kind of things that happen when family members become enemies and relatives turn against each other.
Take my family for example. No matter how filial my father was to my third aunt's family, they still didn't recognize him as their son and kicked him out of the house with nothing.
Alas, even one's own parents are like this; it just goes to show how cold-hearted the world is and how morals are declining!
However, there's one thing I don't understand, and I'll have to ask my older cousin for help.
"Big cousin, tell me, in the face of such inherent flaws, does kinship and family become utterly worthless, or does human nature become worse than that of pigs and dogs?"
Wu Qiaoxin's face turned red, and she was speechless with a stiff expression.
This brat is insulting me indirectly!
How was she supposed to respond?
No matter how she answers, it's an admission that in her parents' eyes, compared to money, her maternal grandparents are nothing, and when it comes to family and relatives, her parents are worse than animals, no matter what!
This is a roundabout way of insulting everyone.
An Yizhong, who was sitting to the side, seemed to have caught something in the conversation of the sisters. However, he was no outsider and it would be rude of him to stay here any longer.
He glanced at An Mancang, then stood up and smiled.
"Mancang, there's a lot of work in the carpentry shop, and many jobs are waiting for me to do, so I won't stay any longer and will head back now."
An Mancang hurriedly saw the person out the door.
"Brother Yizhong, I'll leave the work at my shop to you."
An Yizhong laughed heartily, "Haha, Mancang, don't worry, I'll definitely do your job meticulously."
Mantun and I will definitely finish the work for you as soon as possible so as not to delay your opening and business."
Although Qiao Qiuniang only vaguely understood what the children were saying and didn't know why her daughter was being so confrontational with her nieces, she could sense the tense atmosphere between them.
"Le Wa Zi, go and pour some tea for your cousins. Don't let them stand here doing nothing."
Anxian, not forgetting about food, quickly opened her mouth and said, "Snacks, bring us some more snacks."
Anle glanced at Anxian, then leisurely turned and headed out of the shop. "We're all pretty busy, we don't have time to serve you. If you want to play, go play somewhere else."
After saying that, he went outside and called back An Yizhong, who was about to leave.
"Uncle, I'm planning to order a carriage from the carpenter's shop. How much is the deposit?"
Upon hearing about the business, An Yizhong immediately stopped and turned around, laughing heartily.
"When ordering a carriage, it depends on the size you want. It's not just about the size, but also the material and style."
It can't be explained simply by a price.
Why don't you come up to the shop and take a look with me later? There are many different kinds of carriages now, unlike oxcarts.
Anle was surprised, then laughed heartily.
"Okay, I'll go take a look later. I'll place the order after this batch of shelves is finished."
An Yizhong patted An Mancang on the shoulder with satisfaction.
"Mancang, you're such a promising young lady. You're still enjoying your good fortune ahead of you."
"If I had a little daughter like you, I'd be laughing in my sleep."
An Mancang watched An Yizhong leave, scratched his head, and grinned sheepishly at An Le.
“Your Uncle Yizhong’s family has four sons and not a single daughter.”
Anle was taken aback, then smiled and made a teasing remark.
"I see. But I think the head of the mountain is like a young lady. It wouldn't be bad to raise her as a girl."
Inside the house, Qiao Qiuniang saw that Anle left without saying a word, and she was immediately embarrassed, not knowing whether she should give the children some pastries to try.
Let's take it out, but I'm afraid Lewa won't be happy about it. Actually, she's not happy about it either.
This thing is worth a fortune; it would fetch a lot of money if sold.
If we don't take them out, it feels a bit inappropriate to leave the kids to dry like that.
What Cola Kid said makes sense. We're all in business; there's no such thing as taking something for nothing when someone comes to our door.
If every relative comes to freeload, her family's business will be ruined.
After thinking for a moment, Qiao Qiuniang led the children to the backyard, offering them only the tea leaves and a small dish of maltose that An Dalin had left there.
In rural homes, this kind of maltose and tea dust is considered the best hospitality.
"Oh, right, I also bought some melon seeds at home, so I'll bring them to you too."
Looking at the tea and snacks served to them on the table, Anxian complained unhappily.
"Aunt, what are you doing?"
Do you look down on your three older and younger cousins?
Let's serve this to them!
Anning, who had just returned from school at noon, was startled when she heard Anxian's complaining voice as she entered the door. She paused for a moment, then entered with a grin.
