Lian Shouxin and Wu Lang stood up, both father and son’s faces were very grim.
Lian Manman rubbed her forehead, Lady Zhou again used kowtowing to force their hands, what was this about!
"Grandpa, has Grandma fallen ill again?" Lian Manman spoke calmly. In the current situation, they couldn’t retreat even a step. Because once they take the first step back, the other side will certainly beco more relentless, and they will have no peace.
This is not Lian Manman exaggerating the situation, just look at Lian Xiuxiu’s fate. Just outside, Lian Manman also saw Lian Shouren and Lian Shouli. These two brothers were dressed in a very sorry state, and they had beco thin, even Lian Shouren had white hair now. But they were still active and lively.
The key is, after causing such a massive disaster in Taicang, they were still able to co back unscathed, only to sacrifice Lian Xiuxiu, ruin the Old Zheng Family, and kill Third Old Master Zheng. These people are like invincible cockroaches, as long as they show the slightest weakness, they are bound to be trapped.
And how did Lian Shouren and Lian Shouyi trap Lian Xiuxiu and the Zheng Family? Naturally, it was through Lady Zhou’s powerful influence on Lian Xiuxiu.
A lesson from past experience to guide the future, they absolutely cannot compromise with Lady Zhou.
Besides, there is no such reason in the world. Continuing to indulge Lady Zhou’s absurd troubles, that would be unfair to themselves and to the clear sky above. They don’t want to use the sa rogue tactics to deal with Lady Zhou because they still have dignity.
Lady Zhou is already like this, there’s no need to pay attention to her, just regard her as a lunatic. Such an elder really makes it hard to feel any respect.
Here there is also Old Master Lian, Lady Zhou makes a scene, and Old Master Lian should manage Lady Zhou. So let’s ask Old Master Lian to see what his attitude is.
"Grandpa, look at what Grandma said, what do you think?" Lian Manman asked Old Master Lian.
"Your Grandma is just vexed and distressed, she has to make a fuss two or three tis a day... Don’t pay her any attention." Old Master Lian sighed helplessly.
How to save Lian Xiuxiu? The Zheng Family did everything they could, contributing manpower, effort, and money, almost bankrupting themselves to save this whole family. Third Old Master Zheng even ended up giving his life. Even without all of that, Third Old Master Zheng died, leaving Lian Xiuxiu widowed.
Asking Lian Shouxin to use gold to compensate the Zheng Family for the money spent, but then what about the human life lost? Using the imperial awarded plaque and Wu Lang’s scholar title to suppress the Zheng Family? Not to ntion there’s no argunt for it, the actual implentation is impractical. Only Lady Zhou, who is losing her mind, would propose such a demand.
Also, no matter how much Lady Zhou causes a ruckus, the obstacle of Old Master Lian can’t be overco, because Old Master Lian really values the honor of "no remarried woman in the family".
After crying and wailing for a long ti, kowtowing and making vows, Lady Zhou faced such cold treatnt, and seeing that in a strange place, no one around sided with her, Lady Zhou lay on the heated brick bed, changing from crying to sobbing.
Lian Shouxin and Wu Lang then sat down again.
After roughly clarifying the situation in Taicang, it’s ti to deal with the present and future issues.
"Grandpa, my father, my mother, my brother, our whole family has discussed. You and Grandma suffered in Taicang, now that you’re back, we’ve also built a new house, Grandpa, you and Grandma should live with us from now on. We’ll take care of you." Lian Manman said.
Old Master Lian remained silent, Lady Zhou stopped crying too, with no one consoling her, she slowly raised her head by herself.
"Grandpa, Grandma, you should live here from now on, no need to return to the old residence, and you can avoid worrying about that big family that causes endless troubles." Wu Lang added.
"Right. Although I’m not supposed to say this, things are clearly evident here. Everyone can see, they’re corrupt and unfilial, going against you two seniors. With just your one word, we can go to the Lizheng, find the village elders, and quickly expel them from the Lian Family. From now on, you two can live here, and never have to see them upset you again." Lian Manman expressed.
"Don’t be fooled by Taicang being hundreds of miles away, whatever happens there spreads here. My uncles have done quite a few things poorly, leaving them indefensible and their actions not decent. The good reputation of the Lian Family has been thoroughly ruined by them." Wu Lang continued, "We finally built our reputation, pure and untarnished, and cannot let them blacken it anymore. Grandpa, you value the reputation of the Lian Family the most. Now, it’s ti to make a decision."
