Xiong Yanyan stared straight at Mo Lan, her eyes filled with determination, but also with an inexplicable resentment. Back then, no matter how much she pleaded, her father wouldn't budge, and her brother wouldn't agree either. He was always following this woman around, and in despair, she could only return to Guan County.
Although her mother didn't say anything, the disappointment in her eyes was still very obvious.
A woman without a son to rely on is bound to feel uneasy, so somehow, she always felt that she had failed her mother's expectations.
At the same time, she also hated her father and two brothers for letting her and her mother do whatever they wanted without any consideration for them.
Seeing the resentment in Xiong Yanyan's eyes, Mo Lan was surprised. The things in her memory were becoming increasingly blurry in her mind, but the resentment of the woman in front of her was clear and distinct, yet Mo Lan could not understand it.
"Are you harboring resentment?"
"Ha~, shouldn't we complain?"
"You came to Guan County willingly with your mother, so what are you complaining about?"
Xiong Yanyan looked at the obvious confusion in Mo Lan's eyes, paused for a moment, and then suddenly smiled sarcastically, "Although I know some things have nothing to do with you, my father is another matter, he has a violent temper and would rather die than submit, but my two brothers are different. They are not only Father's sons, but also Mother's. If you hadn't interfered, my brothers might have come to Guan County with me."
Mo Lan: "..."
What kind of thinking is this?
Did she stop Xiong Da and Xiong Er from finding their mother?
"What? You don't admit it? Back then, your eldest and second eldest brothers were always around you, following you wherever you went. I've never received that kind of treatment since I was a child. They were always there for you, have you forgotten?"
“I have never interfered in your family affairs, and I respect Xiong Da and Xiong Er’s thoughts. However, I think your thoughts are very selfish. You’re going to leave with your mother and take your two brothers with you. Have you thought about your father? If Xiong Da and Xiong Er really leave with you, your second uncle will really be all alone.”
Looking into Mo Lan's deep eyes, Xiong Yanyan silently shifted her gaze. "...That's still better than staying in the mountain stronghold as a bandit. My brother could have had a better life. Mother said that as long as they are willing, Grandfather will definitely take it seriously."
Listening to Xiong Yanyan's tone and seeing her stubbornness that she would rather die than turn back, although she was being unreasonable and talking nonsense, she was very similar to her second uncle in some ways.
"Heh~, naive girl, what do you think the Song family is? Do you think that Xiong Da and Xiong Er alone can make a name for themselves in the Song family? Don't say that living under someone else's roof is not easy. More importantly, the Song family may not have much else, but it has a large number of descendants. You Xiong people will always be outsiders living under the eaves of the Song family."
"If they're happy, they'll make your life a little easier; if they're not, they can kick you out with a single word. As for your maternal grandfather, he might dote on you for your mother's sake, but he'll never give you important positions. And those Song family descendants won't just stand by and watch an outsider take away their benefits."
Just by looking at Song Yu, you can tell that the Song family's children are like weeds, they can't be burned out by wildfires and they will grow back with the spring breeze, they seem to have an inexhaustible supply.
In that case, how could Xiong Da and Xiong Er possibly survive? Given their personalities, it wouldn't be long before they were devoured, leaving not even a bone fragment.
