"Sister," Dong Yunsheng pulled over a small stool, "tell me, what exactly is it that has brought your family to this point?"
"I can only say that we can share adversity, but not prosperity. When we were in trouble, I was there to bear the brunt of it. But when we became prosperous, they started plotting against me and undermining me..."
Did my eldest brother-in-law have over 100,000 yuan in private funds? Did he sell the stolen goods? Did he allow his three sons to share the gold bars in my eldest sister's possession?
"Where is he?" Dong Yunsheng stood up and wanted to beat the guy up.
"He's in the detention center! He's serving a three-and-a-half-year sentence. You want to go see him?"
Dong Yunsheng sat down again. "Three and a half years? That long?"
"Long? No, over a hundred thousand in dirty money, three and a half years is not long."
"What about you? You're planning on living here? This house is so hot, it must be cold in the winter, why don't you install air conditioning?"
"The little sister is also called the installation. I don't want to do it. Think about giving me a job, giving me a high salary, and providing me with housing. Or I force myself to eat alone. That's it, and you also bring me a lot of good things.
I even bought a refrigerator, which is enough. I don’t have to pay for the electricity, so why should I waste so much electricity? I have an electric fan here, and I can just use an extra blanket in the winter.”
"Work? Are you here to work in the market town?"
"Of course," Dong Yunyue said proudly, "Do you think I came here to seek refuge with my younger sister?"
Dong Yunsheng waved his hands repeatedly, "I thought you were here to relax. Good! It's good to have a job. It will make your life more fulfilling."
"Of course. If you came over on the weekend, I wouldn't have time for you! I'm very busy."
"Tell me what you've been busy with?"
"Me! I have five soldiers under my command..."
When Dong Yunrong arrived, her elder sister had already finished bragging, and her brother looked envious.
"Brother, sister-in-law."
Dong Yunsheng glared at her and said, "Such a big thing happened in my elder sister's family, why didn't you tell me?"
"Can you solve the problem? Or turn back time?"
"At least I came to comfort my elder sister."
"Do you think Big Sister needs comfort?"
Uh, Dong Yunsheng choked, the elder sister is in better condition than she was twenty years ago,
"Okay, my fault. I didn't care about you enough."
"Forget it! You should seek advice from Big Sister and learn how to take care of your two children! If you don't get married, they're your own children. If you get married, who knows whose children they might be!"
Dong Yunyue laughed, "Little sister, you're right. My three sons have all become someone else's."
"Why do I feel like it's better to marry later? At 25 or 26, your temperament is more stable and no one else can snatch you away, right?"
"It's up to you. I'm a loser. I only have lessons from failure, not experience of success. And my sister's experience of success is not worth taking. No family would marry their son off unless they have no other choice!"
When Zhou Xiang heard that her uncle was coming, she insisted that Ling Ran take her to her aunt's place.
Dong Yunrong turned around and saw her daughter-in-law coming. She quickly reached out to support her and said, "Didn't I ask you to come?"
When Aunt Qian Jianying saw Zhou Xiang’s expression, she thought she was pregnant!
Dong Yunrong laughed, "Sister-in-law, you're so funny, aren't you? If she were to walk like this during pregnancy, it would have taken at least seven or eight months, right? She injured her waist, so she rested for two days and wouldn't lie down for even a moment longer."
"Your waist is injured? You need to stay in bed. Why are you here?"
Ling Ran helped Zhou Xiang sit down beside his aunt's bed. "I was afraid that my uncle would worry about her, so I came to take a look. She owns half of the house. After it's sold, I'll give her half. If she likes the town, and someone else is selling a house, I'll ask her to buy one there for retirement."
Dong Yunsheng was completely relieved when he heard this. "Okay, okay, your aunt! She's been so stubborn all her life, and she's always been arguing with your mom. In the end, she finally came over to this side."
Dong Yunyue glanced at her brother and said, "Why are you bringing up such a topic?"
"Haha, that pot is hot!"
Dong Yunsheng felt relieved that his elder sister was fine. He went to Zhou's house to see Sanbao and chatted with him for a while before returning to Huai County.
Dong Yunrong, who couldn't leave anyone behind, had to ask her son to drive her there.
Early in the morning of the 4th, a guest came to Zhou's house. When Zhou Xiang heard that it was the old master Kong, he really didn't want to see him.
Ling Ran carried his wife to the bathroom to wash up. "Let's talk first. If we can settle it out of court, then do it. Isn't your goal to control them? Now that they're here, why haven't you met them yet?"
"How can we reconcile? Will he accept that Yan'er is a member of the Zhou family? Their purpose is clear! Okay, I'll go see what he wants to do."
After slowly settling down in front of Patriarch Kong, Zhou Xiang finally spoke: "Just be frank! Since I'm suing, I don't intend to beat around the bush with you."
Zhou Xiang's impatience was obvious, so Patriarch Kong asked directly, "Where is Kong Yan?"
"You've come to the wrong place. The Zhou family only has Zhou Yan, and his custody still needs to be decided by the court. Since your Kong family is capable of stealing seeds, we have applied for temporary custody."
"Zhou Xiang," Patriarch Kong said in a slow tone, "opening a court hearing will only deepen the conflict between the two families."
"Patriarch Kong," Zhou Xiang said in a more serious tone, "You have to understand one thing. From the beginning to the end, I never intended to reconcile with the Kong family. The conflict was caused by you over thirty years ago. How can you blame the party that suffered the loss when you took advantage of it?"
"You're still fussing about the Guan County incident!"
"Of course!" Zhou Xiang slapped the coffee table. "You're making it sound so light. A life may seem insignificant to you, but this life is the root cause of my grandmother's drastic change in temperament, the cause of my third brother's miserable childhood, and the source of our family's unrest.
Even if you kill or skin the culprit right now, I will not agree to reconcile, because human life cannot be recovered, and all the psychological pain we have suffered from your Kong family still exists and can never be erased."
The old master Kong really wanted to skin his cousin alive. His cousin had lost countless years of his life because of the divination, and the result was destroyed by him. The other party had the upper hand on him.
"Zhou Xiang, let's put aside the old grudges. Since Yan'er is in the Zhou family, what about Xianxian?"
"Master Kong, stop questioning me so aggressively. It's my turn to ask you."
"Okay, ask."
"Yan'er is my eldest brother's child. Everyone in the Kong family knows this, right? You know the reason why Kong Xianxian gave birth to Yan'er, right? You know that Yan'er is not welcome in the Kong family, right? You know that Yan'er was captured by the second young master Fujiwara because of Kong Qianfeng's selfishness, right?
Yan'er cannot feel the amount of life, but he knows that his life is limited. Do you know?
Did you know that Nobuyuki was whipped in the Fujiwara family dungeon?
Kong Xianxian sensed the danger of her child and spent her life making divinations repeatedly. Did you know?
On the one hand, you wanted to use Yan'er's differences to change the bloodline of the Kong family, and on the other hand, you looked down on his status as an illegitimate child. On the one hand, you told Kong Xianxian to live an ordinary life, and on the other hand, you ignored Yan'er who was taken away.
I just don't understand. Do the Kong family have any principles in doing things? Where's their face? Feel it. Is it still there?
When you disregarded Yan'er's life and believed the one-sided words of the second young master Fujiwara, you were not worthy to ask where Kong Xianxian was? I felt sorry for her. The Kong family not only sucked the blood of others, but also sucked the blood of their own family. "
