Chapter 402 The Ge Family in Danger
After breakfast, Li Guoer took the old couple of the Zhou family to the imperial capital.
I had just returned for a short while when someone came to the door.
Seeing the newcomers, Mrs. Zhou frowned and didn't even pour a glass of water. She said indifferently, "Why are you here? Don't you know that you are not welcome in my house?"
It’s so unlucky that I see someone I don’t want to see as soon as I get home.
"Sister, what are you talking about? We are your elder brother and sister-in-law from your mother's family. How can there be any overnight grudge? Just for your daughter who you just found, you don't even recognize your mother's family?" The eldest sister-in-law of the Ge family scolded.
"Why should I recognize people like you? Get out of my house right now!" Old Mrs. Zhou was too lazy to talk nonsense with them and started to chase them away.
Ever since they came to her house to plead for Bai Yun last time, the Ge family has been on her blacklist.
"Sister, are you really so heartless? You don't even want your big brother? You haven't calmed down after such a long time?" Ge Feng also started to accuse.
"Ge Feng, our two families have severed ties. What kind of elder brother are you? Can you not be so self-righteous?" Old Mrs. Zhou said coldly. Her good mood after just returning home was ruined by these two people.
Ge Feng stared at Old Lady Zhou with a cold gaze and demanded, "Are you serious? You're really going to sever ties with your family? Are you worthy of your deceased parents?"
"I've severed ties with your family, so what does that have to do with my parents? Don't use my parents to kidnap me!"
Old Mrs. Zhou wouldn't buy it. She said she was going to sever ties with him, so she did. Did she really think she was joking?
Aren't they on Bai Yun's side? Since that adopted daughter is closer to her than her biological sister and niece, then you two should just go and love each other, but don't make things difficult for her.
Ge Feng was so angry that a surge of anger shot up from the soles of his feet to the top of his head. Thinking of the purpose of his visit today, he had to suppress it forcefully, his face flushed red.
"If you want to sever ties with me, you can't also abandon your nephews and nieces, right? Do you know that not only have they lost their promotion opportunities, but they have also been demoted? How can you just watch the Ge family decline?"
Ever since they came to plead with Bai Yun last time and angered Old Lady Zhou, the Zhou family has withdrawn all the resources invested in the Ge family.
He also spread the word that he had severed ties with the Ge family, and that from now on, no one or anything related to the Ge family would have anything to do with the Zhou family.
Having lost the Zhou family as their backer, the Ge family's position in the imperial capital suddenly became precarious.
In the past, no one dared to touch the Ge family because of the Zhou family. Now there are no concerns anymore, the meat is right at their mouths, and anyone who doesn’t eat it is a fool.
There are only so many resources, and only when some people come down can others climb up.
The Ge family's nephews and nieces were suppressed and tripped up everywhere in their work and life.
Not only did they lose their positions, but they were also demoted.
Who could stand this? Naturally, they blamed Ge Feng for offending the Zhou family by insisting on taking care of the adopted daughter's affairs.
Ge Feng secretly hated the Zhou family for being so heartless, but he still had to bite the bullet and visit Old Lady Zhou many times.
But the old couple had already gone to Lijia Village, so they naturally didn’t find it.
Having heard that they were coming back today, he couldn't wait to go to their door.
But he still has a very arrogant attitude, which doesn't look like he's begging for help at all.
"I don't even want you as my eldest brother, let alone my nephews and nieces. I'm not their mother, so why should I care about them? Besides, what does the decline of the Ge family have to do with me?" Old Mrs. Zhou curled her lips in disdain.
She was just taking back the resources and didn't take any action for the sake of her deceased parents. They should be content.
The eldest sister-in-law of the Ge family could no longer bear it and roared angrily: "Why is it okay? It's okay if you don't take back the resources. As an aunt, shouldn't you protect them? Where in the world is there an aunt as cruel as you? You are cold-blooded and ruthless!"
Mrs. Zhou didn't even bat an eyelid at Mrs. Ge's roar. She said in a cold tone, "You're right. I'm just so cold-blooded. They're your Ge family's nephews. What does it have to do with my Zhou family? If anyone treats my daughter ruthlessly, I'll treat them the same way. What's wrong with that?"
Seeing Mrs. Zhou's tough attitude, Ge Feng had to soften his tone and try to reason with her, hoping that she would change her mind and continue to help the Ge family.
"In the end, you're blaming us for not standing by your daughter and favoring your adopted daughter. But don't you think about the fact that Bai Yun has been with us for decades, and it took us until your daughter was found. What kind of feelings can we have for her? Shouldn't we be partial to her?"
"Shouldn't I blame you? I don't ask you to stand on my side, but you should never help the person who kidnapped my daughter to plead for mercy! Have you forgotten who the Ge family relies on to be where it is today? How can you, how dare you do such an ungrateful thing? Since you don't care about me, your sister and niece, why should I use so many resources to support you? Even if I feed them to a dog, it will still wag its tail at me!" Old Mrs. Zhou became more and more angry as she spoke, and she only felt regretful that she had given so many resources to this group of ungrateful people.
That's right, a whole bunch of them. Ever since the last incident, which of the Ge family's nephews or nieces has even come to visit and show concern for their aunt? Not even a phone call! Do they think they're too powerful, or do they think she'll be too eager to please?
In fact, what she didn't know was that Ge Feng had told the nephews and nieces of the Ge family to ignore her on purpose, and only pay attention to her when they realized they were wrong.
The Ge family's nephews and nieces really obeyed without any resistance.
From this we can also see that they have no real feelings for Old Mrs. Zhou, they only use her to their advantage.
Her heart was completely chilled. Haha~ Then let them see what will happen to them without her!
The eldest sister-in-law of the Ge family spoke quickly and angrily: "You actually compare us to dogs? Do dogs deserve to be compared with us?"
Li Guoer scoffed, her tone mocking, "Indeed, they don't deserve it, but it's you who don't deserve it! Even dogs are less ungrateful than you! Comparing them to you is an insult to dogs!"
After watching for a while, she finally realized how shameless this couple was.
You have been using that little bit of blood relationship to kidnap your grandmother, but don't you think that it was you who supported the criminal Bai Yun in the first place?
Seeing herself being scolded by a yellow-haired girl, the eldest sister-in-law of the Ge family angrily fought back: "You are Zhou Ruolan's daughter? Little bitch, do you know who I am? You are so vicious at such a young age? How can you not have any manners at all? As expected, you are from the countryside and have no manners!"
How could a village girl dare to laugh at her? Who gave her the courage?
Before Li Guoer could reply, there was a loud "slap" and Mrs. Zhou slapped the eldest sister-in-law of the Ge family in the face.
What the hell? She held the treasure in her hand, and how dare anyone, even a cat or a dog, come and scold her?
