Chapter 89: Mention Again (1st Update)
"Mother, do you really not understand what my second brother meant?" Yuan Qifeng asked Madam Yuan again, looking straight into her eyes.
Madam Yuan Lao was a little annoyed by Yuan Qifeng's look and said, "What else can it mean? Isn't your brother doing this for your own good?"
Yuan Qifeng sneered, "Mother, I finally understand why Yun'er and You'er have been bullied like that in the mansion these past few months!"
"Boss, what do you mean?" Madam Yuan felt uneasy again when she heard Yuan Qifeng say this: "Did Liu say something to you?"
"Mother, shouldn't you tell me that my wife and daughter are being bullied like this in my general's mansion?"
"Boss!" The elder lady said anxiously, "Don't listen to what Liu said. It's not what you think. You'er fell into the lake because she was practicing martial arts by the lake and slipped. I've always said that girls should be quiet and gentle. What's the point of practicing martial arts? And during the Lantern Festival, Tong'er was concerned about You'er. When she tried to pull You'er up, she fell and accidentally pushed You'er. Besides, I punished Tong'er. And this time, You'er scared the horse, and there's no evidence that Ning was responsible. You and Liu should not wrongly accuse anyone. As for the last time we wanted to rent Liu's dowry shop, didn't we end up not agreeing on it?"
The more Yuan Qifeng listened, the colder his heart became. He sneered, "Yun'er didn't tell me that she was going to force her to rent the dowry shop. I never thought this would happen again."
Madam Yuan and Yuan Qilei were stunned when they heard this, and they didn't know what to say next.
"Well, big brother!" After a while, Yuan Qilei whispered, "Look, it's all just a misunderstanding. Why get so angry?"
"Misunderstanding?" Yuan Qifeng sneered, "What a misunderstanding! Yuan Qilei, you're telling me all these things are misunderstandings? These 'misunderstandings' are way too frequent."
"Brother, then..." Yuan Qilei wanted to say something.
"Shut up!" Yuan Qi Fengbao shouted, scaring both Madam Yuan Lao and Yuan Qi Lei.
Nanny Bai was busy trying to appease Madam Yuan Lao and said to Yuan Qifeng, "General, the old lady is old, please give in a little!"
Upon hearing this, Yuan Qifeng tried hard to suppress his anger and glared at Yuan Qilei, "I always thought that you were a fifth-rank tutor and should be quite sensible. But today, it seems that you, a civil servant who talks about all sorts of things and always thinks about propriety, righteousness, and shame, are worse than a rough man like me. You want to seize my sister-in-law's dowry shop. You openly say that it is for the good of the Yuan family, but secretly you are thinking about making profits for yourself. You are really calculating!"
"Big...Brother!" Yuan Qilei was frightened by Yuan Qifeng's anger, and his speech became a little unclear.
"Now it seems that you and the Ning family are really birds of a feather. As expected, people from the same family are alike!" Yuan Qifeng said coldly.
"Boss, they are your younger brother and sister-in-law, how can you say that to them?" Madam Yuan couldn't bear to hear Yuan Qifeng getting angry at Yuan Qilei.
"Mother!" Yuan Qifeng laughed bitterly. "You can't stand it when I mention Yuan Qilei. Your son's life has been on the line several times. Have you ever thought about your son's feelings?"
“You…” Seeing Yuan Qifeng’s expression, Madam Yuan couldn’t help but be stunned for a moment, then said awkwardly: “Isn’t the second girl fine now?”
"That's because the second girl is lucky!" Yuan Qifeng said coldly, "If it weren't for the second girl's luck, would mother have planned to send her son back to the capital to see him off?"
"Nonsense!" Yuan Qifeng's words made Madam Yuan's heart tremble: "How can it be so serious?"
"It turns out that mother thinks these matters concerning You'er's life are not very serious. Maybe in mother's heart, my second brother's face is more important than You'er's life, or more important than the lives of our entire family!" Yuan Qifeng's voice could not tell whether he was happy or angry, but it made Madam Yuan feel a chill in her heart for no reason.
"What nonsense you are talking about!" Madam Yuan threw the teacup in her hand at Yuan Qifeng's feet.
Yuan Qifeng was not moved at all, he just stared at Madam Yuan. The pain in her eyes made Madam Yuan regret what she had just said!
If you think about it carefully, what you just said was indeed too hurtful!
The elder lady coughed uncomfortably and said, "Boss, don't take what I said just now to heart. I was too harsh!"
"I dare not blame my mother!" Yuan Qifeng took a deep breath, glared at Yuan Qilei fiercely, and said to Madam Yuan, "There is just one thing. Since we have come to this point today, I will tell you."
"What's the matter?" asked the elder lady.
"Mother, I'm a military officer. Even if I return to the capital, I'm afraid I'll often be away from home!" Yuan Qifeng said, "I'm really worried about Yun'er and You'er in this mansion now, so let's divide this family. Please ask my second brother and his family to return to their own residence."
"What did you say!" Madam Yuan and Yuan Qilei were both shocked.
"No!" The elder lady flatly refused, "I'm not dead yet, and I won't let you make the decision in this family!"
Yuan Qilei also hurriedly said, "Brother, what do you mean? Mother is still alive, how can you bring up the idea of dividing the family? Aren't you cursing Mother?"
Yuan Qifeng glared at Yuan Qilei: "Don't think of me with your dirty mind. You know what you are thinking in your heart!"
“Brother, you…”
Yuan Qifeng didn't wait for Yuan Qilei to finish speaking before he said to Madam Yuan, "Mother, do you really think that my second brother wants You'er's shop for An'er and Ning'er? Or for the Yuan family?"
"Isn't it?" Madam Yuan said, "Your brother is doing this for the Yuan family, for An'er and Ning'er. Don't get the wrong idea."
"Hmph!" Yuan Qifeng sneered, "Mother, our Yuan family hasn't split up yet. If You'er's shop is taken over by the public, the profits from it will naturally go to the second branch. But if we really want to split up in the future, given your love and favoritism towards my second brother, who will take over the shop?"
"You..." The elder lady wanted to refute, but didn't know how to say it.
In whose hands will it fall...
The eldest brother is already a first-rank official, and he also has fertile fields and a villa personally bestowed by the emperor. The shop with a plaque bestowed by the empress dowager should naturally be divided among them.
This way the two brothers get a fair share, right?
She is a woman of flesh and blood, she can't let Lei'er become poor and destitute after the separation!
But……
Originally, she thought it was a matter of course, but after hearing what Yuan Qifeng said, the elder lady felt a little uncertain again.
