Gao Ming's face flushed red, as if he had also understood something, and his questioning gaze turned to his mother and wife again:
"Mother, Wang Lan, did you sell my sister?"
Grandma Gao has always treated her own son with sincerity, so out of habit, even if she wanted to lie, her expression wouldn't be very natural.
"Hey, Amin, how could it be selling? Your sister got married into the family; we're just following the proper procedures!"
Although Gao Ming was a farmer who didn't usually concern himself with family matters, he could always tell what his mother was thinking from the looks he'd seen since he was a child.
"So, you really did sell Cuicui, right? And you even lied to me that Cuicui fell in love with that son of the Kong family and ran off to the Kong family without even agreeing to be with him. You told me that, right?"
Grandma Gao was speechless for a moment, and Wang Lan was also very nervous when she saw this: "Aming, this, this really isn't for sale, Cuicui is marrying into the Kong family!"
A pale and feeble explanation!
Gao Ming was furious: "Wang Lan, shut the hell up! There's no peace in the house with you around. You're just a troublemaker, you know that? That's my own sister, the sister I've loved since I was a child, do you even know that?"
When an honest person gets angry, their aura can be quite intimidating.
Wang Lan was startled by Gao Ming's sudden outburst. She breathed a sigh of relief, knowing she had a life-saving card. Otherwise, given Gao Ming's behavior, she probably would have been beaten up if she hadn't had a piece of meat in her arms.
Thinking back to how she had been beaten several times by this man because of that bitch Ye Wanying, Wang Lan's ego, which had been inflated due to her pregnancy, gradually deflated.
Thinking that Ye Wanying, that bitch, was just a stranger with no blood relation, yet Gao Ming still managed to beat him up several times. This time, it's Gao Ming's own sister... ugh...
Wang Lan is a typical example of someone who bullies the weak and fears the strong, and is also afraid of trouble.
If Gao Ming hadn't discovered this problem, Wang Lan would have been in a fantastic mood. With that large sum of dowry money, her son would be guaranteed a comfortable life after birth, able to eat milk powder, meat, and wear new clothes.
Unfortunately, my second brother actually came back and brought up the matter specifically.
Wang Lan's only worry now is the issue of the bride price.
We will never retreat, not even if it means death!
A woman is married off, so why would she return the bride price?
Just stick to this!
Wang Lan stopped talking and deliberately touched her stomach in front of Old Lady Gao. Sure enough, Old Lady Gao saw it.
For Old Lady Gao, her eldest grandson is the most important person now; even her own son has to take a backseat!
"Gao Ming, who are you yelling at? Do you have a problem with your mother? I'm the one who married off your sister. Now, do you expect me to kneel down and apologize to you?"
Who would dare to answer that?
Gao Ming's face darkened, and he said, "Mother, I didn't mean that. If Cuicui had married into the family, that would be fine. Now that my second brother is back, I think we should also ask Cuicui to come back. Even though she's married out, it's still good for her to come back to her parents' home for a meal, right?"
"No need!"
Grandma Gao refused outright.
"Mother, why? Does that mean that once Cui Cui gets married, she's no longer a member of the Gao family?" If she can't even go back to her parents' home, can she still be considered married?
How could the old lady dare to agree? She knew that her own daughter had indeed been sold to the Kong family, and the two families had an agreement that from now on, whether Gao Cuicui lived or died was none of the old lady's business.
