Capítulo 2241: Chapter 2238: Warning
Su i didn’t quite understand the stance she was expressing, but didn’t ask further.
About two quarters of an hour passed.
Ye Muyu t with the two female family mbers of the He Family in her own guest room.
Old Lady He and the He Family’s eldest daughter-in-law, after a whole night, had dark circles under their eyes. It seed like they tidied up before coming, but couldn’t hide their weary faces, especially Old Lady He, whose white hair made her look ten years older overnight.
Both of them faced Ye Muyu with so apprehension.
“You can speak directly if you have sothing to say, no need to worry. How to handle it depends on what the situation is after I’ve listened to you,” Ye Muyu took a sip of tea and spoke first.
She knew that if she didn’t initiate the conversation, these two would probably hesitate for quite a while.
Indeed, maybe sensing that her manner was not harsh and her speech quite kind, the He Family’s eldest daughter-in-law suddenly knelt down: “Lady, I beg you, please save our family. My father didn’t do it deliberately; he was frad. We have our responsibilities and do not dare to trouble you too much. We just want you to co forward and ask the gambling den for so ti. If it weren’t for us standing our ground today, those people would’ve taken our family’s children away to sell.”
Old Lady He also knelt down, her eyes teary, saying nothing, just kowtowing. In no ti, her forehead turned red.
Ye Muyu lifted her hand slightly, her brows furrowed: “You may stand up.”
Kowtowing to her was sothing Ye Muyu still hadn’t gotten used to.
Su i didn’t need any instructions. As soon as Ye Muyu finished speaking, she went over and forcefully pulled the two kneeling up.
The He Family’s eldest daughter-in-law looked at her with so trepidation, but after a glance, dared not look directly.
Old Lady He was even more tearful and her whole deanor was despondent.
“You sit down first. I understand about the situation. I’ll send soone to speak to the gambling den. Right now, taking people to sell is certainly not allowed.”
“If it were so ti ago and your family faced this issue, I would want to help but couldn’t, as the gambling den handles matters according to rules.”
“Gambling and going to the gambling den, if it’s not by force, then it’s by choice. If you lose, you must accept it. Do you agree?” Ye Muyu held no favor for Old Man He, who loved gambling and dragged his family down. Regardless, this was an issue where Old Man He was in the wrong.
Of course, if it weren’t sohow related to her own family, Old Man He wouldn’t have suffered such a great loss this ti.
When it’s her family’s responsibility, Ye Muyu would not hesitate, but she wouldn’t let those under her develop a habit of relying on her family for everything. Matters that should be clarified, must be clarified.
The He Family’s eldest daughter-in-law’s face turned pale, her lips dry and peeling, her deanor showing signs of despair: “Yes, yes… Father-in-law went to the gambling den voluntarily.”
After saying this, she seed to have exhausted all her strength. Previously unwilling to admit it, now that the truth was out, she had to accept it despite her distress.
Old Lady He looked sorrowful: “My old man usually isn’t such an impulsive person…”
“So next ti soone uses our Chu family’s issue to place their bets, will you gamble everything on a rumor you hear, and then bla our Chu family for not making things clear?” Ye Muyu sensed the resentnt in her words, looked at her indifferently, those eyes seed to see through people, causing Old Lady He’s petty thoughts to be instantly exposed, and in fear, she lowered her head.
“I dare not…”
“Right, it’s ‘dare not’, not ‘do not want to’. Ye Muyu’s voice was sowhat cold.
