Chapter Summary
Seeing that Sun Qiang remained silent, Yaqing couldn't hold back any longer. He had done many outrageous things in the past, including swindling money from Liu Ning's father, and his mother hadn't said a word about it. No matter how outrageous his uncle's actions were, even if Liu Ning wanted to take revenge on his uncle, his mother would stop him from getting rich overnight.
Seeing that Sun Qiang remained silent, Yaqing couldn't hold back any longer. The situation made her feel extremely oppressed, so she stepped forward herself.
“I don’t want this so-called bride price. I wasn’t happy before either. I’ve lived most of my life, so I want to be able to control my own life. You got so much money from my child’s father before, consider that as repaying your kindness in raising me. If you want to continue to disrupt my life now, I absolutely will not agree. You just said that if you don’t give your blessings, then let’s pretend this never happened. When I get married, I’d rather let people talk about me than invite you here. Do whatever you want, we’ve already registered our marriage, and I’m not spending a penny of your money…”
Cousin Yaqing is very independent. Liu Ning still remembers that back then, her uncle had already cut off all contact with Liu Ning's family, believing that their family had fallen on hard times and that continuing to associate with Liu Ning's family would lower their standard of living. Therefore, the whole family did not want to have any contact with Liu Ning's family.
Cousin Yaqing didn't think about that. She still helped Liu Ning and the others within her ability. Liu Ning still remembered that kind cousin, and she was still like that now. If it weren't for her cousin saying those things, Liu Ning probably wouldn't have dared to confront her uncle so forcefully. After all, she had to consider the father-daughter relationship between her cousin and her uncle. Now it seems that her cousin saw things very clearly and there was no father-daughter relationship between them at all.
"What nonsense are you spouting? You rebellious girl, have you forgotten how you came to be? If I hadn't given you to your father back then, how could you have grown up? Now you're with some wild man, have you grown wings? Do you think you can escape our control? You've already lost one husband, everything should be decided by your father, what kind of attitude is this..."
Auntie stood up first and was about to attack, but Liu Ning blocked her way. If Auntie continued, Liu Ning would not be able to control himself. Last time, Liu Ning wanted to attack Auntie. Your family has gone too far. You swallowed the death compensation money of the husband and made the mother and son live on the balcony. Is that a place for a mother and son to live?
The situation reached a stalemate when the aunt took a step back. Neither of the two men would give in. The uncle definitely wanted to receive the money. Cousin Yaqing had already stated that it didn't matter if they didn't come. Therefore, Liu Ning felt that he had to act decisively in this matter.
This matter absolutely cannot be allowed to drag on. If it is delayed, it will not benefit Sun Qiang at all. I am about to go to the wilderness. If Sun Qiang feels that this matter is not resolved, he is likely to be distracted in the wilderness. Everyone knows the dangers of the wilderness. You can lose your life even when you are fully focused, let alone when you have something on your mind.
"Please sit down, everyone. This old woman has a few words to say..."
Just as Liu Ning was about to explode, his mother tapped the table. Liu Ning hadn't expected his mother to speak like that. In the past, no matter what his uncle did wrong, his mother would always choose to endure it. Speaking in this situation usually meant scolding Liu Ning to protect his uncle's dignity. Liu Ning assumed this time would be the same, so he obediently stayed to the side. But when had his mother developed this personality?
However, Liu Ning also observed his mother's gaze. It seemed that she didn't even glance at him, but looked entirely at his uncle. Could it be that his mother had changed her temper recently? Was she now daring to scold his uncle? If that were the case, then Liu Ning would absolutely support her 100%. He had to make his uncle suffer a bit, otherwise he would never associate with him again.
The uncle, on the other hand, didn't see any of this. All he saw was Liu Ning obediently doing his job. In such situations, the mother always defended the uncle, so the old man felt the same way as last time: his nephew was indeed capable, but what good was it? No matter how capable you were, he was still your uncle.
You dared to slam your fist on the table and glare at me in front of your mother? Your mother will have to teach you a lesson later. So the uncle watched all this with a smug look on his face, hoping that his nephew would lose face here. The people sitting around him were not ordinary people. He wanted to show them what kind of status he had in the Liu family. In the future, if they needed anything from them, they would know who to do things for.
"I think your nephew is right about this. Since you don't want to come..."
The mother had barely uttered two sentences when the uncle stood up in surprise. How could this be? In his mind, the mother should be scolding Liu Ning, not him. And in front of so many people, no less. After all, they were family, and the mother was the elder. To scold an elder in front of so many people for the sake of a junior? Was there no law left?
The uncle couldn't understand this situation. He had done many outrageous things in the past, including swindling money from Liu Ning's father, and his mother hadn't said a word about it. What was going on today? Had his mother suddenly become temperamental? Not only was the uncle puzzled, but Liu Ning, standing nearby, also felt strange. How had things changed? She hadn't seen her mother for a while. Had she been influenced by Zhang Jing and become a strong woman, interfering in the family's affairs?
"Isn't this a mistake?"
After being stunned for a long time, Liu Ning heard his uncle say this. This was something that had never happened before. No matter how outrageous his uncle's actions were, even if Liu Ning wanted to take revenge on his uncle, his mother would stop him from getting rich overnight. Moreover, she often told Liu Ning that no matter what, he was still his uncle, and he could not do anything outrageous.
But today's situation surprised both of them. Their mother was no longer blindly protecting her uncle. This made Liu Ning even happier than if he had killed a war god-level beast. In the past, no matter what happened, his mother would always protect his uncle. Today, it was like the sun had risen in the west.
