Qin Qiongying froze on the spot. Perhaps it was instinct, but when faced with the cold looks from both her husband and son, she suddenly lost her confidence.
Lu Xingye took the opportunity to bring her home.
Back in the Lu family's living room, Lu Xingye told her, "This is just the first step. Next, almost all of the Qin family's grandchildren will go to the countryside. The only ones who will stay are probably the children of the eldest son's family. After all, they have always been relatively obedient. Although they are not very capable, they have worked very hard to make a living. Dad will not make things difficult for them until they reach a certain point."
Qin Qiong trembled with righteous indignation, “I risked my life to give birth to you and raised you with all my might…”
"Are you now desperately trying to destroy us too?"
"I didn't!" Qin Qiongying screamed.
Lu Xingye chuckled, somewhat sarcastically, "You only dare to oppose your father so recklessly because you have three sons, right? Otherwise, what gives you the right? I don't want to explain anymore. I'll just tell you one fact: your father's power in Changning City is enough to ensure that the Qin family will never recover."
"Of course, you can also run around and shout that Yan Yan is Dad's illegitimate child, call the Meng family shameless, and even put up big-character posters to report Dad, ruining his reputation and causing him to lose his position as factory director. But don't forget the Meng family's status in Changning City. If you can't produce evidence, the old Meng family members might tear your Qin family apart. After all, Meng Fuyan's mother was a martyr, and both of Meng's parents came from the army. If they knew that the descendants of the Meng family were being treated like this by you, then the three of us brothers would definitely have a much harder time in the army."
"Finally, and most importantly, Uncle, you're quite pleased with yourself, aren't you? Your children are still young and haven't shown any talent yet, but you always think that we can inherit your position, so you become increasingly superior. Tell me, in your heart, who is more important, my father or us nephews?"
Qin Qiongying was stunned; she didn't understand.
Lu Xingye explained, "If you go out and cause a scene now, ruining Dad's reputation, making him lose his job, or even putting him in danger, Uncle will know that all of this is because of you. He will definitely deal with the Qin family immediately. Even if all of us brothers are on your side, he will not let you off the hook. In Uncle's heart, his own brother is the most important."
"Besides, even if we don't talk about family ties and only about interests, Dad is the factory manager of the machinery factory. This position is very beneficial to the Lu family. Dad has worked hard to achieve his current status at this age. If you ruin Dad and make Uncle lose this support, do you think he will let you off the hook?"
“We’re still young and won’t be of much help to Uncle. Without us, he still has his confidants and his own children, but without his father, he’ll lose so much. Are you sure the Qin family can withstand Uncle’s wrath?”
Qin Qiongying was completely stunned, her mind went blank, and she couldn't understand why she had ended up in such a situation.
She did nothing wrong, and Lu Jianjun was the one who made the mistake, so why was she the one who ended up suffering?
Seeing her expression, Lu Xingye knew what she was thinking. He sighed and said, "You don't need to feel wronged. You have no ability, yet you want to destroy everyone. Don't you find that ridiculous?"
Lu Xingye stood up, ready to leave. "Think about it yourself. I have things to do. I'm leaving now."
Seeing that he had really left, Qin Qiongying became anxious, "Wait!"
"Is there anything else?"
“Meng Fuyan, she hit me and cursed at me that day. That little bitch isn’t as well-behaved as you all think. She…”
"I know she's being naughty!"
Qin Qiongying was taken aback, and then Lu Xingye said, "The eldest daughter of the Meng family, she has been traveling all over the country with Aunt Meng since she was a child to do business. She has seen more people and things than you have. Her mother died several years ago, and her father and stepmother tried so hard to harm her, but she was still able to live a relatively comfortable life in that family with her younger brother. Do you think a girl like that would be easily bullied?"
"Have you forgotten how she dealt with that group of stepmothers back then? In every argument or disturbance, did those people ever gain the upper hand over her?"
“She treats my dad like an elder, so she only behaves well in front of us. Even with us brothers, we only behave well at home. When have we ever behaved well outside?”
Qin Qiongying: "..."
She suddenly remembered what Meng Fuyan had said that day: "Who told you I was well-behaved?"
Lu Xingye walked to the door, stopped, and suddenly said, "I forgot to tell you, it was Yanyan who locked up my uncle."
Qin Qiongying's eyes widened, thinking she must have misheard. "What? Impossible! How could she have done that?"
Lu Xingye chuckled. "She did it. She just went to Director Li's house to pay a New Year's visit, and her uncle was arrested that very night. What do you think? My dad knows about this too. Yanyan admitted it to us herself. Dad didn't blame her, and neither did I. Anyway, even if she didn't do it, I would have."
After saying that, Lu Xingye left.
In the silent living room, only Qin Qiongying remained. She felt dizzy and her legs went weak. Finally, she collapsed to the floor...
The Qin family's affairs had been making a fuss for several days. How could someone who had always had everything go smoothly suddenly accept their family's loss of power? Qin's parents were bound to make a scene for a while. In the end, Lu Jianjun ignored them, Qin's uncle was kept in custody, and then the neighborhood committee came knocking on their door. One by one, the Qin family's grandchildren were sent to the countryside.
Except for the young ones, everyone else left. Those who didn't have jobs left directly, and those who had jobs lost their jobs before leaving.
Even Qin Lang, the most obedient eldest son of the main branch, was transferred away.
