Zhao Lihua suddenly stood up from the sofa, walked to Xiao Dingyu, and knelt down. "Ziming, I beg you, please ask the Gu family and your daughter to let your brother Zilin go. Zilin is still so young, he will change in the future."
“I’ll make Zilin kneel down and apologize to your daughter when he’s out, and let you all beat him up to vent your anger. Ziming, Auntie begs you, please save your brother! You’re brothers by blood!”
Anger flashed in Xiao Dingyu's eyes but quickly disappeared. He looked at the woman kneeling on the ground and heard her call her "aunt," and Xiao Dingyu felt nauseous and his stomach churned.
He then thought of the woman General Xiao had married later, and brought this woman into the Xiao family home. General Xiao had his mother call this woman his younger sister, and naturally, this woman became his aunt.
But this so-called younger sister and aunt soon had an affair with her brother-in-law, Wei Xiongjie. After the affair was exposed, the two tried to shift the blame onto their own mother, Xiao Baiyu, and Uncle Wei Zhilun.
Xiao Dingyu's expression grew increasingly cold. He looked at the woman in front of him and said, "What kind of sister or aunt would seduce her own brother-in-law? My mother doesn't have a sister, so what kind of aunt are you? Don't you know what kind of child you raised? I heard that any one of Wei Zilin's crimes would be enough to put him in jail for life."
“My surname is Xiao Baiyu, and I don’t have any so-called younger brother. Your Wei family doesn’t need to rush to give me a younger brother. Wei Zilin is going to be executed tomorrow, and his punishment has already been served. As his family members, I, as the father of the victim, can’t do anything to you.”
"I've come today to tell you that I have a gift for your Wei family. Don't worry, the gift will arrive soon, and I hope you will be able to accept it."
After saying what he wanted to say, Xiao Dingyu turned around and walked towards the living room door. Behind him, Old Master Wei's trembling voice sounded, "Ziming, don't you want to forgive your grandfather? Your grandfather has always loved you very much when you were little. Please come home, even if you don't count as Wei and take your mother's surname Xiao, it doesn't matter."
Xiao Dingyu stopped but did not turn around. "No matter how much you loved me when I was a child, it didn't matter to me anymore when you stopped your son from smearing my mother and Uncle Zhilun."
"You are a hero of the War of Resistance and deserve respect, but for the sake of the Wei family's reputation and your beloved eldest son, you let your innocent daughter-in-law be smeared. And Uncle Zhilun is clearly your own son, but just because he was born out of wedlock, you are unwilling to even acknowledge him."
“You even let your eldest son smear Uncle Zhilun. Wasn’t Uncle Zhilun the man my mother was originally supposed to marry? If Wei Xiongjie hadn’t used tricks to say that Uncle Zhilun died on a mission, my mother wouldn’t have been so heartbroken. My mother’s muddle-headed father wouldn’t have forced her to marry Wei Xiongjie.”
"And you also played a part in my mother's marriage to Wei Xiongjie! You valued the Xiao family's capabilities; back then, the Xiao family was not only wealthy but also powerful. General Xiao had also risen to a high position in the army, and your Wei family would benefit from the marriage alliance with the Xiao family."
“Your Wei family owes my mother and Uncle Zhilun a lot. You used dirty tricks to separate and hurt the two people who loved each other, and finally forced them to be separated by life and death.”
“Old Master Wei, have you ever thought that your beloved eldest son is actually a good-for-nothing? He got a position in the army by relying on you, but in the end he lost his position and accomplished nothing.”
"Uncle Zhilun rose from a common soldier to his current position step by step, with every sword and spear in his hand. Uncle Zhilun will soon be able to retire with honor, and from now on, everyone will speak of him with great respect."
