However, every pair of eyes in the crowd seemed to be staring at him.
Any subtle move could be interpreted as favoritism or opposition, further complicating this sensitive issue.
What made him even more headache was that the unusual friends around Yin Yunjie were quietly observing everything.
Any poorly handled decision could lead to their intervention.
A small disturbance within the family turned into a major event for the entire village.
The situation has developed far beyond the scope of one family.
It is directly related to his credibility and prestige as the village director in the hearts of the villagers.
So he took a deep breath and tried to force a barely perceptible smile.
Trying to sound gentle yet principled, she said, "Having said that, respecting the opinions of elders is a tradition here. Regarding family matters like this, we should first hear what Yin Yunjie's parents think."
Upon hearing this, the old lady of the Yin family immediately interrupted, "Third Brother, you are also a sensible person. Although rules are dead, human relationships are alive. Today is a happy day, why bring up these things?"
After saying that, she turned slightly to the side, seeming to be a little uncomfortable due to her emotional fluctuations.
Xie Di beside him quickly reached out to support him, with an aggrieved expression on her face.
As for this recurring drama, Yin Yunjie seemed extremely calm, as if he had already anticipated it.
His eyes were firmly fixed on the village director, and his tone was calm but unquestionable: "Uncle Village Chief, we had an agreement in advance, written in black and white, clearly stated. Do you want to go back on your word now?"
Yin Yunjie's words were simple and direct, but they seemed to weigh down the village director's heart.
He couldn't help but feel a chill, and beads of sweat appeared on his forehead.
Just as the atmosphere was becoming tense, Ni Yuan and others stepped forward and joined the conversation: "We have a contract, so we just need to follow the rules. What's the problem?"
They couldn't help but feel surprised, as they originally thought that Yin Yunjie had not yet married because his family was not in a hurry.
But I never expected that there was such a secret agreement hidden behind it.
Once Yin Yunjie gets married, he will immediately separate from the family and start his own business, and no longer bear the extra expenses of the family.
In this way, the two elders of the Yin family naturally don't have to rush their son's marriage.
They even privately hoped that Yin Yunjie could become their permanent support.
However, Yin Yunjie is the youngest son in the family.
According to common sense, he should be the apple of everyone's eye, but why do the rules become so cruel to him?
The old man of the Yin family was already full of anger, and now when he saw outsiders, he started to interfere.
His anger instantly reached its peak, and he could no longer suppress his inner anger: "This is our Yin family's own business, outsiders have no right to point fingers!"
The old man's roar made his position clear to everyone present.
He was unwilling to address the issue publicly in front of everyone.
The expressions of Ni Yuan and others also turned gloomy. For them.
Yin Yunjie is not only a brother who has been through thick and thin with him, but he has also won the respect of everyone outside. However, he has to endure such injustice at home. How can we not feel sad?
"Uncle Yin, you're going too far. As his brothers, why wouldn't we pay some attention and support him on this important matter of dividing the family? Just to seek justice? What's wrong with that?"
Ni Yuan's words were sincere and firm.
Yin Yunjie has remained consistent over the years.
Strictly fulfill your responsibilities and obligations in accordance with that heavy contract, regardless of rain or shine.
But now, when the time has come for everyone to fulfill their promises and acknowledge his efforts, those faces who once swore so confidently have changed their tone, as if the past agreements were just clouds of smoke that dissipated in the wind.
How can this be the behavior of an honest and trustworthy person?
Qin Xunfu felt mixed emotions, as he was well aware of the injustice and coldness of the situation.
He supported Zhu Yunxiu and walked steadily towards the center of the crowd.
The friendship between Qin Xunfu and Yin Yunjie is deep and extraordinary.
These days, he has been working almost non-stop for Yin Yunjie's upcoming wedding day.
He took care of everything, no matter how big or small, while the other people in the Yin family were unwilling to contribute even a penny.
For many years, Yin Yunjie worked hard outside, every drop of sweat and every food coupon counted.
He exchanged his life and dignity for these things, and it was often Qin Xunfu who finally delivered these precious things safely to his home.
He had long seen through the Yin family's thoughts and calculations.
Thinking of this, his heart couldn't help but feel heavy.
This group of people enjoyed the fruits of Yin Yunjie's life-threatening struggle.
It is simply a pipe dream to want to rely on Yin Yunjie for the rest of your life and reap the benefits of his work!
Upon hearing this, Ni Yuan and others nodded in agreement, thinking that Qin Xunfu's words made sense.
He echoed, "That's right. The contract is clear. Even if Yin Yunjie splits up the family, he still has the responsibility to support his parents. This cannot be considered unfilial. It's a good thing for the young couple to set up their own home and live their own lives."
But someone suddenly raised a dissatisfied retort from the crowd: "Hey, what do you know? Don't think that just because you wear a couple of nice clothes, you can be so high and mighty and tell ordinary people what to do!"
When Xie Di saw her parents-in-law appear, she was secretly delighted, thinking that the matter could be suppressed.
Unexpectedly, Yin Yunjie's friends did not give in at all, and she became extremely anxious.
It would be ideal for her to settle the matter privately, even if it meant dividing the family.
She also wanted to try to squeeze out every last bit of benefit from Yin Yunjie.
Everyone frowned, and their eyes towards Xie Di were full of disapproval.
Yin Yunjie's separation from his parents has nothing to do with her. Her unreasonable behavior is really hard to accept.
Ni Yuan suggested: "Since it was the village director who witnessed the contract, it is natural that he should be the one to administer justice."
This one sentence easily passed the difficult problem to the village director.
The village chief looked worried and was in a dilemma.
It is easy to split up a family, but it is extremely difficult to do so without offending anyone.
At this moment, he regretted it deeply. If he had known the situation today, he should not have coveted the small profit of the basket of eggs from the old couple of the Yin family.
Seeing that the situation was becoming increasingly chaotic, Old Man Yin quietly pushed his wife.
The old lady understood what was going on and immediately started crying and wailing, rolling on the ground and sobbing, "Oh my god, what sin have I committed against my old bones? I am still alive, but my son wants to split up the family property. How am I going to live in the future?"
"These city people only know how to bully us country folk. Their son has become successful, and the wife he married is also strong. Do we country folk deserve this?"
"Old man, if you still have a soul over there, please open your eyes and see what the world has become... wooooooo!"
The old lady cried heartbreakingly and at the top of her lungs, shocking Ni Yuan and others present.
Xu Qinghe was secretly surprised. It turned out that the real master of "throwing a tantrum" was Old Lady Yin.
