Chapter 128 Everyone’s Thoughts
Fan Jingrui now wishes he could express his loyalty to Chu Ci all the time.
At that moment, he pulled Chu Ci behind him and said, "Fourth Uncle, as an elder, you can't distinguish right from wrong, and you don't know how to protect the younger generation. Do you think you have the right to tell us juniors what to do?"
If Chu Ci's identity were to make sense in this world, it would still be three points weaker.
As the eldest son and grandson of the Fan family, Fan Jingrui's accusations against Fan Zengzhi were fatal even though he was clearly in the right.
As expected, as soon as Fan Jingrui finished speaking, Chu Ci's father-in-law, Fan Jingrui's father, was the first to stand up and support his son. "Fourth brother, you really have forgotten your roots. Who is it that has enabled the Fan family to survive through all the hardships and achieve what we have today?"
Fan Zengzhi's momentum immediately weakened a lot: "I haven't forgotten, but Yin Zhang is the elder. Even if..."
Even so, Fan Zengzhi was only halfway through his words when Chu Ci interrupted him: "The status of an elder is not a golden ticket to immunity from death."
Even the second aunt said immediately: "My niece-in-law is a sensible person. Second brother, you should go to the Miao family later and clearly reject Miao Shiguangdong's proposal."
"Dad, I can't. Jing Xian from my eldest brother's family has grown up, and Qian Wei from my third brother's family is almost of marriageable age. If the Fan family's reputation is ruined at this time, what will happen to the marriages of the younger generations of the Fan family?"
Even at this time, fourth uncle Fan Zengzhi still protected Liu Yinzhang under the banner of doing good for everyone.
Now, let alone Chu Ci, even Mr. Fan’s image has been shattered because of the filter of his own son.
At that moment, Mr. Fan angrily questioned, "Fourth Brother, is Qian Lan just an object that can be discarded at will in your heart?"
"Father, eldest brother, second brother, don't forget that Qian Lan has already slept in the same bed with Miao Shiguang."
After his true identity was exposed, Fan Zengzhi went all out and even used Qian Lan's reputation to make a fuss in an attempt to force everyone to compromise.
How can this be tolerated?
Chu Ci immediately decided that since reasoning didn't work, he would use physical means to suppress it.
Unfortunately, before Chu Ci could take any action, he was stopped by Fan Jingrui.
Chu Ci was furious, and Fan Jingrui quickly pointed to his second uncle Fan Chongyuan who was not far away. "Madam, look at your second uncle."
Following Fan Jingrui's gaze, Chu Ci saw the ring on Uncle Fan's thumb fly out and hit Fan Zengzhi directly on the forehead.
With a "pop" sound, a mark exactly like the ring appeared on Fan Zengzhi's head.
Second Uncle Fan said calmly: "I'm sorry, fourth brother, my hand slipped!"
"Wow, that's awesome!" Although Chu Ci also wanted to learn such a skill.
However, she was more interested in Fan Zengzhi's reaction. Turning around, she saw Fan Zengzhi's face full of grievance. "Second brother, you did it on purpose."
Uncle Fan smiled slightly, "Fourth brother, did you see that?"
Fan Zengzhi hadn't expected his uncle to admit it. Just as he was about to accuse him, he heard his uncle ask, "Then what makes you think we would believe your lame excuse?"
Fan Zengzhi's face turned red.
Chu Ci and the other female relatives present felt extremely happy.
Uncle Fan chose to turn a blind eye to all of this.
He turned to Old Master Fan and said, "Father, I always thought brothers should support each other. But, I was obviously wrong. In my fourth brother's heart, no matter how well we brothers do, we are no match for a vicious woman."
This was the second time Liu Yinzhang heard the comment of "evil intentions" in one day.
Although she was furious, when she saw her husband's embarrassment, her lips trembled slightly, and she finally swallowed back the words that were on the tip of her tongue.
However, this appearance will not only not gain anyone's sympathy, but will instead make people despise you.
"Send the fourth son and his wife to the Liu family. This is the last chance your father gives you and your wife. If you still don't repent, I will kick you out of the family!" Although Mr. Fan is soft-hearted, when he really sees through a person, he will be very decisive.
"Dad, I know I was wrong. Please don't kick your son out. Dad—"
"Father-in-law, all the mistakes are my daughter-in-law's fault. I care about my family. Everything Licun did was for me and the children."
Chu Ci looked at the couple who were kowtowing continuously below, wondering why he hadn't noticed that Fourth Uncle Fan and his wife were such a perfect match before!
One is a white lotus, the other is a hypocrite.
I just don’t know what the fourth wife’s child will be like. If he imitates the temperament of this couple, the Fan family will be on the verge of bankruptcy.
Thinking of this, Chu Ci suddenly woke up. She pulled Fan Jingrui and whispered a few words in his ear.
Fan Jingrui was taught from a young age that the family is one, and that they prosper together and suffer together.
In essence, he was unwilling to doubt his brothers and sisters who shared the same blood with him, but the example of Fourth Uncle Fan was right in front of him, and he could not afford to be soft-hearted.
At that moment, Fan Jingrui stepped forward and said, "Grandpa, please call my brothers and sisters over! Some things should not be concealed. Otherwise, misunderstandings will arise, and it will cause internal strife in the future, which is not good."
"This..." Mr. Fan hesitated.
Although Old Lady Fan despised the Fourth Brother and his wife, she felt from the bottom of her heart that the children of the Fourth House were innocent. "Rui'er, your Fourth Uncle and Fourth Aunt are confused, but Jingzhu, Qianbai, and Qianxiao are all good children."
Chu Ci rolled his eyes suddenly: "Grandpa, Grandma, this is exactly why this matter needs to be made clear. Otherwise, with the personalities of Fourth Uncle and Fourth Aunt, do you think they will tell the children everything exactly as it happened?"
[No] This is the answer that everyone present knows.
Chu Ci looked around and saw that except for Fan Zengzhi and his wife who looked nervous, everyone else seemed to be thinking about something.
Then he slowly pointed out the key point: "I'm afraid that in order to cover up their own mistakes, they will put all the blame on Qian Lan, or even on Second Uncle, Second Aunt, and me, a nosy person?"
The naked reality was revealed by Chu Ci. Although everyone in the Fan family looked unhappy, they had to admit that this was the fact.
Didn’t you see the fourth brother and his wife’s faces turning blue and red as they stared at Chu Ci?
Second uncle Fan Chongyuan was the first to speak up: "Dad, Mom, the descendants of our Fan family are not flowers that cannot withstand the wind and rain. Call all the children over!"
Mr. Fan was still hesitating, so Mrs. Fan said, "Old man, do you remember what you said when you first arrived in Jingtian Village?"
Although Chu Ci didn't know what Mr. Fan had said, she felt that he would definitely compromise.
As expected, Mr. Fan's expression changed slightly. "Okay, I'll listen to the second brother."
