Chapter 94 Venting for You
Old Mrs. Chen was furious. Ruolan was going to be a distinguished scholar in the future, and the man she would marry would be either rich or noble.
Why did he let that damned girl bully him? He actually crawled like a dog in front of so many people.
If this gets out, how will Ruolan live her life in the future?
At this moment, hearing that they all stopped me from taking my anger out on Chen Ruolan,
Anger rose in her eyes, and she gritted her teeth and said, "It's easy for you to say that. If I don't teach that damn girl a lesson, she won't even know who she is."
Sun was already angry because Old Lady Chen secretly sold the grain. Now she was even more furious when she saw that she was defending Chen Ruolan without knowing right from wrong. She snorted coldly.
"Mom, you just heard it, let's talk about the matter at hand. What did Qing girl do to Ruolan that she had to make a bet with Qing girl for no reason?
Since you lost the bet, you must fulfill the bet. Why are you bothering Qing Yatou? You are just making trouble out of nothing and being unreasonable."
"Cuiqin is right. This is a voluntary matter between both parties. One is willing to fight and the other is willing to be beaten. If you can afford to play, you must be able to lose.
You should think clearly before making a bet. Don't cry, make a fuss, or go crazy when you lose. If this gets out, people will look down on you." Chen Zhanliang couldn't help but speak his mind.
"Shut up, both of you!" Old Lady Chen glared at them fiercely. "You're really getting more and more outrageous. Not only didn't you try to comfort our Ruolan, but you actually turned your elbow outward and spoke to a conscienceless outsider. You're really heartless."
Sun rolled her eyes in disdain and retorted bluntly, "Mother, who in our family is so heartless? Before you kicked my eldest brother and his wife out, my eldest brother was always busy all year round, either going into the mountains to collect firewood or working in the town. My eldest sister-in-law, in addition to washing up at home, also did farm work in the fields.
They've given so much to this family, and they don't even have a new piece of clothing to wear all year round, or even a meal of meat to eat, yet you ruthlessly kicked them out and called them heartless. In my opinion, whoever benefits the most in this family is the most heartless person."
"That's right, stop confusing right and wrong all day long. The bad guys are the first to complain." Chen Zhanliang showed a disdainful look.
These words completely hit the chest of old lady Chen. She was so angry that she was shaking all over and pointed at Chen Zhancai and his wife with trembling fingers.
"You two unfilial people are almost pissing me off. You have nothing to do here. Get out of here!"
Sun snorted disdainfully, "You don't like to hear the truth, you only like to make up stories. You've turned your once prosperous life into this poverty. You're so embarrassed to brag about it every day."
"That's right, they take my kindness for granted, and they don't know what's good for them." Chen Zhanliang muttered, "Come on, wife, let's go back to the house and ignore their mess."

When Old Man Chen saw the couple leave the house, he suppressed his dissatisfaction and started to persuade them, "Old woman, what the second son and the others said makes sense. Just bear with it! Even if you make a scene, you won't get any good results."
"Just endure, endure, endure. That's all you know." Old Lady Chen's eyes flashed with anger. "I think this is all you can achieve in this life. You can even endure being bullied."
"Old woman, what's the point of this? What nonsense are you talking about?"
"You're a worthless wimp who can't even get a fart out of you. Ruolan has been bullied and crawling all over the streets, and you can still endure it. If you're a man with a bit of backbone, then take the fire poker and go with me to settle the score with that damn girl. If she dares to talk back to me, you'll beat her to death."
"I won't go. The kids are having a conflict, why should I get involved?" Old man Chen shook his head repeatedly with a look of resistance.
Old Mrs. Chen curled her lips in contempt. "Look at you, you've become so useless. Where's your ability to talk back to me? You're scared of such a small thing. What a coward."
"It's not that we're afraid. If we really want to make this matter worse, we'll have to sue them. After all, we're two families now."
Old man Chen deliberately emphasized the word "two families" in order to make Old Mrs. Chen calm down and stop making trouble, as even if she did, she wouldn't be able to get out.
But Mrs. Chen felt that Old Man Chen was blaming her, and she started to curse, "You useless coward, just stay in your room like a cuckold. I'm going to go and settle the score with them."
Old Mrs. Chen slapped her hips, put on an attitude of giving it her all, and raised her legs to walk out.
"Mom, wait a moment." Chen Zhancai called her back in a bad mood.
"Third brother, what's the matter?"
"Mom, things have already happened, don't make it more complicated."
"Mom wants to vent her anger on Ruolan, why are you stopping me?" Old Mrs. Chen was a little unhappy.
Chen Zhancai shook his head and sighed, "Mom, if you go and scold Qing girl now, it will only make the problem worse and it won't do us any good."
Old Mrs. Chen frowned as she listened. "Old Third, what do you mean by that? How come I don't understand?"
"What's so confusing? I mean we can't get too upset with the first wife right now." Chen Zhancai said, and then he quickly winked at Chen Ruolan, "Ruolan, hurry up and persuade your grandma."
Chen Ruolan's original intention was to let Old Lady Chen vent her anger. She was angry about why Chen Qingqing was richer than her. In this family, she should be the one with money.
She grew up in the town and knew the importance of money better than anyone else. Money brings happiness and the best food and things to use.
The purpose of returning to Nanshan Village this time was the same as Chen Zhancai's, which was to find a way to get Old Lady Chen to go to the eldest wife's house to ask for money.
As long as I can take the silver in Chen Qingqing's hands for myself, I'll see if she still has the ability to fight with me.
Chen Ruolan wiped the corners of her eyes with a handkerchief, raised her hand and took Old Lady Chen's arm, and said in a soft voice, "Grandma, let's forget about this."
"No, you've been wronged so much, I have to vent your anger for you."
"Grandma, what's the point of scolding her? She has no bones or flesh, and her skin won't even itch. You are still so angry. Ruolan will be distressed if she gets angry."
"Look, look at me, my Ruolan is still the most filial one," Old Mrs. Chen grinned. "Ruolan, do you mean we should just swallow our anger?"
Chen Ruolan shook her head and smiled, "Grandma, I don't think scolding her will make me feel better. Think about it, how did Chen Qingqing have so much money? If it weren't for you, how could she be where she is today?
Why don't we think of a good way to get all the silver she has? Without it, we'll see what she can do to act so arrogantly."
"What can I do? Forget about the money. That damn girl won't even look at me now. I want to scold her when I see her."
"Grandma, you can't always think about scolding people."
"I can't bear the anger in my heart if I don't scold her. Don't stop me. I'm going to vent it for you."
Chen Ruolan stamped her feet anxiously. "Grandma, venting your anger can't be eaten, nor can it be used as money. Listen to your granddaughter and find a way to get the money. As long as their family is out of money, you can punish that damn girl however you want."
"Well, the relationship is over, how can I ask for money?" Old Mrs. Chen was a little embarrassed...
