Chapter 016: Just use all your means
"Several generations of my Xie family have lived here. We will decide for ourselves whether to move or not." This news was announced last month. When Xia heard it, she thought it was ridiculous, but when more people said it, she began to panic.
Chen Heng nodded emphatically beside her. How could anyone else have the final say in her own family?
"Min'er's mother," Third Uncle Qi said kindly, "Look at the people next door. Not a single one wants to be friends with you. They even speak harshly to you when they see you. What's the point of living like this?"
"Yes, Min'er's mother, when you first came out, everyone threw rotten vegetable leaves and stones into your yard. If you ignore everyone's wishes and insist on living here, this kind of behavior may continue, and it may become even worse." Uncle said.
At this time, the clan leader spoke: "As the clan leader, I went to each family to persuade them not to do this, and asked them to help each other. But they didn't listen, and there was nothing I could do."
Chen Heng was furious when she heard this. These people kept saying that they were doing this for the good of the Xie family, but in fact, every word they said was a threat to the Xie family to leave. If they didn't leave, they would be bullied like before. It was really hateful.
Thinking of the past days, a trace of fear flashed in Xia's eyes and she looked at Xie Jian.
"That's fine, let's move out of the city to get some peace and quiet." Xie Jian said.
A hint of joy flashed in the eyes of clan leader Xie Changgen, and his first uncle and third uncle nodded. Xie Jian finally understood the situation after growing up.
Xie Jian then said, "Once we find a place to live outside the city, we will sell this house. We also ask the clan leader and our uncle to help us sell it at a good price."
The fire that Shen Heng had just started was put out a lot. Couldn't Xie Jian finish his words at once?
"This house has been passed down from your great-grandfather. Do you want to sell it?" The patriarch's face changed slightly when he heard this.
Third Uncle Ji and the clan leader exchanged glances, and after some thought, Third Uncle Ji said, "Xie Jian, you're only living outside the city temporarily. After a few years, maybe no one will mind anymore, and you'll be able to move back. If you sell it, this won't be your home anymore."
"Selling the ancestral home is unfilial," said Uncle Yu.
"What the elders said is true," Xie Jian said with a cold expression. "But this house is already dilapidated and lacks vitality. If we move back in a few years, I'm afraid much of it will have collapsed and become uninhabitable. Since the tribe can't tolerate us, we should just sell it. We can also rent out the remaining land. I'm sure there will be many people who want it."
The three men came here just to drive the family out, but the house and land had other uses, so they naturally wouldn't let Xie Jian do that.
"Xie Jian..."
"I wonder if my uncle would like to buy my house and land?"
Uncle choked and said, "I don't need it."
"What about Third Uncle?"
Third Uncle looked away with a dark face.
