Chapter 1146: Retreat to Advance
“Big Brother!”
"Don't mess around here!"
Brother Nie whispered and moved Father Nie aside.
This matter needs an explanation.
It would have been fine if it hadn't gotten out of hand, but now it has gotten to this point.
If Father Nie continues to get involved, wouldn't that just cause more trouble for their father?
Brother Nie pushed Father Nie, who was pushing forward, out the door.
In the room, without the support of Nie's father, Si Qi seemed a little isolated and helpless.
Si Qi had no choice but to grit her teeth and speak louder:
"sorry!"
Aunt Xue glanced at her sideways but ignored her.
Nie Jinpeng sat solemnly at the side, watching the whole process without intervening or saying a single word.
That attitude made it clear that Aunt Xue was not satisfied, so he insisted that Si Qi perform to her satisfaction.
Si Qi obviously realized this as well.
Her eyes were red, her hands were clenched into fists and her body was trembling slightly. Even though she was reluctant, she had to lower her head under the pressure of her father-in-law.
Si Qi slowly bent her knees, humbly wiping her tears as she knelt pitifully in front of Aunt Xue:
"It's my fault for not taking good care of the child..."
Before she could finish her words, a crisp sound was heard in the room.
Aunt Xue moved quickly.
Before anyone could react, he turned around and slapped Si Qi in the face.
The man then stood up from his chair.
"you……"
Si Qi sat on the ground with her hands covering her face, a little dazed by the sudden slap.
Nie Jinpeng had not expected this to happen. His brows were twisted into the shape of a "川" character, and his hand on the table moved, but in the end he held back and did not move.
Si Qi gradually came to her senses, and tears flashed in her eyes:
"Why do you hit people?"
"Why? How about I hit you?"
Aunt Xue slapped her again, giving her a symmetrical slap:
"Didn't you take good care of the child? Are you a human or an animal? How about I lock you up in the room all day and don't let you go out? If you don't treat our child as a human being, you have to take the beating from me!"
"Oh, madman, you madman!"
Aunt Xue grabbed Si Qi's hair and slapped her twice.
Si Qi screamed in pain after being beaten by her.
The scene suddenly became chaotic.
The other people in the room who had been sitting still now started to move.
Uncle Xue was afraid that Aunt Xue would suffer a loss, so he quickly stepped forward to pull Aunt Xue away and said:
"Alright, if you're angry, just hit her a couple of times to vent your anger. We're here to solve problems, not to cause trouble."
Uncle Xue's words seemed to be criticizing Aunt Xue, but in fact he was reminding the Nie family that they were the ones in the wrong.
Now, even if this woman who is caught in the middle and stirring up trouble gets beaten, she deserves it.
They just have to endure it.
But this matter cannot be taken too far.
After all, slapping the second branch of the Nie family in the face is different from slapping the entire Nie family in the face...
Uncle Xue pulled Aunt Xue behind him, and his not-so-broad shoulders supported everything.
Acquiescing to the eldest daughter-in-law of the Nie family helping the crying Si Qi away, Uncle Xue looked at the leader of the Nie family, smiled politely and offered a way out at the right time:
"Uncle, let's get back to business. If this is okay, then let's do what I suggested just now. What do you think?"
Nie Jinpeng glanced at Aunt Xue and really didn't pursue the matter further.
However, regarding what Uncle Xue mentioned, Nie Jinpeng shook his head seriously and said:
"Xiao Ge is a child of the Nie family. He always has been and he will always be. This is beyond doubt and cannot be changed."
Uncle Xue had anticipated this, but he pretended to frown and said:
"But you've seen the current situation. Something like this has happened to the child since he returned. Even if I agree, his aunt won't be willing to let the child return... If you recognize the child as a member of the Nie family and insist on not supporting the child's surname change and household registration change, then you should at least come up with something substantial to provide adequate protection for the child, so that his aunt and I can rest assured."
We are all smart people.
After hearing this, Nie Jinpeng immediately understood Uncle Xue's motives and purpose.
He was retreating to advance, using the "change of surname" to force the Nie family to make concessions and gain protection for Nie Yunge...
Nie Jinpeng sighed slightly in his heart.
Although I realized that this was a trap set by the couple, it seemed that I had no choice but to fall into it.
What else can we do?
In the past, Nie's father and Nie Yunge's biological mother had always had a good relationship, but maybe people are just like that sometimes.
With a new love, who would still remember the past?
Nie Jinpeng knew exactly what his youngest son's situation was.
Right now, it's really not appropriate to bring that child back...
After a brief thought, Nie Jinpeng relaxed:
"What do you want?"
Uncle Xue pushed up his glasses and said with a gentle smile:
"Uncle, what you said is not right. It's not about what we want, but what you are willing to give to the child."
Uncle Xue changed the subject and glanced at Father Nie, who was standing at the door with his eyes wide open, and said:
"As the saying goes, if you have a stepmother, you have a stepfather. His father is already partial, and now he has a child with his new wife. There's no guarantee that the situation won't get worse in the future... If you insist on recognizing Yun Ge, then you can't just say it verbally. Since ancient times, male descendants of a divided family have inherited everything, and Yun Ge must inherit everything."
At this point, there was no need to be more euphemistic. Uncle Xue said bluntly:
"The child will still have the surname Nie and live with us in Beijing North. Her aunt and I can afford the expenses for food, clothing, and education, so you don't have to worry about that. But you have to buy her a separate house, either in Beijing North or in the Yi District. This is a must."
After taking a breath, Uncle Xue continued:
"When the child goes to school in Beijing North, if he wants to come back to visit, his aunt and I will take him there. If he doesn't want to come back, don't try to force him. If he really misses him, he can go visit him anytime. His aunt and I will never stop him."
When Father Nie at the door heard this, he stiffened his neck and said:
"How is this any different from giving you my child? You're not allowed to do this or that, and you still want a house? Even an unfair contract wouldn't be as overbearing as you!"
Uncle Xue smiled and said nothing.
Nie Jinpeng glanced towards the door with sharp eyes.
Father Nie was already angry because he couldn't protect his woman.
After listening to Uncle Xue's detailed list of conditions, Father Nie became even more angry. He ignored his father's opinion and waved his hand and shouted:
"If you want that kid, just take him away. As for the others? Don't even think about it! I don't agree!"
disagree?
That's better.
"If that's the case, that's fine. Let's go back today and come back in a couple of days after we've finished communicating with the relevant firm."
Uncle Xue nodded and took Aunt Xue's hand to leave.
Aunt Xue was so angry that she pointed at Father Nie's nose and cursed:
"Don't worry! We won't leave the child to you even if you can take him away! You don't have to act so arrogantly in front of us. If we can't explain it here, we'll go to court and talk to the organization! Don't think this matter is over. Let's see who can escape!"
"No, no, his uncle, his aunt! He doesn't have the final say in this matter. Don't be impulsive. Let's talk it out..."
Nie Jinpeng hurriedly stood up to stop Uncle Xue and the other man, and then scolded his eldest son:
"What are you still standing there for? Get him out of here!"
