Xu Miaomiao stood quietly behind Shisiniang, holding the things in her hands. It was obvious that these people came prepared. Moreover, they chose today, Shisiniang's birthday, and did not resolve the matter when it happened. Perhaps they had some selfish motives and wanted to take advantage of today's opportunity to take back all these industries.
But their wish might be about to be dashed. Since Shisiniang has been able to successfully build up these industries as a woman against all odds since her father's death until now, she must have relied on more than just hosting these banquets and looking at everyone with a pleasant face.
"What you said is so unreasonable, uncle. It was obviously my cousin who disliked these jobs because they were too tiring. If he had stayed at home with me, he would have had the money to come home. I would have satisfied my cousin's idea. However, since he has no job, he probably won't get the money. I can't ask you to give me the money to raise my younger brother just because you are my uncle."
There was no swearing, no yelling, just some ordinary words, but they turned the whole situation around in an instant. It seemed that Shisiniang really had something.
Xu Miaomiao was watching this scene with even more interest from behind.
"Cousin, why do you say that to me? When did I ever say that? It's you, cousin, who is worried about us and wants to keep all the assets in your own hands. Unfortunately, we just want to share some of the burden with you because you are still young. Do you know what people outside are saying about you? They say that you are a woman who shows up in public all day long. We are kind-hearted. When your brother grows up, we will naturally return these things to you. It's a pity that the foundation my uncle has worked so hard to build all his life will be destroyed in your hands."
"Me?"
Shisiniang raised her eyebrows and looked at the people in front of her with a little joking: "I guess those people who said that I was the one who was bribed by my second uncle."
"How dare you, rebellious girl, to defame an elder like this!"
The old man holding the cane tremblingly raised the thing in his hand and pointed it at the woman in front of him.
Xu Miaomiao was stunned. What was this? Was this taking advantage of one's age and seniority?
This family is indeed shameless, but it's a pity that Shisiniang has to go along with these people to make a living.
"I thought we were a family, and we all share the same surname, Yun, so I wanted to save some face for you, but there are always some people who are shameless."
Shisiniang raised her eyebrows and looked at the people in front of her with disgust on her face.
"My father just passed away, and his body is still warm. The mourning hall is still at home, but none of you have even offered a stick of incense. You proposed to take over my Yun family's assets, saying that my brother is too young and that I am a girl. Since my second uncle said that we are a family, why have I never seen my second uncle give us anything? Whatever you want, you pester my father to do everything he can to satisfy you."
"After our father just passed away, he was thinking about my family's property. It makes sense. Today was supposed to be my birthday party, but Second Uncle treated me as a family member, but he didn't even say a word of blessing. He came to blame me right away. Where is my dignity? Is Second Uncle really thinking about me, or does he just want to take advantage of today's guests to take all these things from me for himself!"
Shisiniang said this with great power and without any mercy. She looked at the people in front of her without any fear and even had the aura of a king.
Xu Miaomiao watched her from the side and understood why a woman could only achieve what she has today.
Xu Miaomiao wanted to prove something to those men who looked down on women for the sake of her family, but Shisiniang had to protect her younger brother and keep the inheritance of love left by their father, so it was naturally extremely difficult. But they still had their own pursuits in their hearts, so it was not too bad.
"You rebellious girl, why would I covet some of the things my brother Liu left behind? Back then, my brother had nowhere else to go and relied on our second branch to marry and have children, and then you were born. Now that my brother is gone, you actually treat us like this. God, come and take a look, brother, this is the good child you taught."
“That’s enough!”
When Shisiniang heard the person opposite her mention her father, she glared at him in dissatisfaction, and then she immediately spoke, "My father didn't have money to marry and have children, but he traveled all over the country to build his business. You never gave him a penny. Even when he lived in your house for a year, he ate the rotten rice that you didn't want. Just for this year's rotten rice, you threatened my father whenever you had something to do. If I remember correctly, my cousin has signed more than five thousand taels in the gambling house."
"You really think that you have a lot of face, so those people don't care. That's because my father paid you back, but even so you are still not satisfied. You threatened my father, gave you money, and used tricks to ask for money. My father has paid enough for your family. Even if you killed my mother, we didn't blame us. But is this how you repay us?"
The amount of information contained in these words was so huge that Xu Miaomiao couldn't help but sigh. Fortunately, the things in her own home were relatively small and not involved in so many things. Otherwise, she would probably end up like Lady Russian Fourteen in front of her.
Xu Miaomiao suddenly felt fortunate for a moment. Fortunately, Song Wushao's relatives were not illiterate people, and fortunately, they did not care about these things. Otherwise, she would have to kill people like Lady Fourteen.
"How could I have ever done that? I have always respected my brother, but you. Have I not treated you well? I have treated you as my own child. Today, I am willing to let you be so like me. It is my fault. I might as well just die and go find my brother."
"Uncle, you don't have to say that."
Shisiniang calmed down, looked at the people in front of her and said calmly: "I know that Second Uncle is not happy with me, a woman, inheriting the family business in this way, but Second Uncle might as well wait for me to finish what I have to say."
As she spoke, Shisiniang took out a piece of paper and handed it to the person in front of her. She put the paper aside and then said, "I know I am not worthy of inheriting the family business, but now all these things belong to my brother. They are all in my brother's name. If Second Uncle wants them, I'm afraid there is nothing he can do. Now it is legitimate that the father dies and the son inherits. I don't believe Second Uncle can say anything."
