"How could it be? You’re just overthinking it. When did I ever show off anything like this in front of you? They listen to you too, don’t they? Maybe not in the sa way they listen to , but they do listen to you, right?" Nangong Beiying looked at Qin Xue with so disbelief.
Qin Xue was also Feng’s cousin, and people would listen to her too. So this notion of Qin Xue showing off was nonexistent.
Feng and the others were very loyal people. As long as it was related to them, they would listen if it was good.
So of them don’t refuse to help because they don’t want to, but they need to see if it’s necessary and whether the person needing help is worthy. Thus, it’s impossible for soone like Qin Xue not to be listened to.
Of course, Qin Xue understood what Nangong Beiying ant. Wasn’t she saying that Qin Xue was Nangong Shulan’s daughter, the Nangongs’ cousin? Plus, she was good sisters with Nangong Beiying. Do you think Feng would dare not to listen to her?
But regardless, they were essentially Nangong Beiying’s people, not hers. She couldn’t just command others to do things for her. All she could do was ask for help with urgent matters, maybe have soone run an errand once in a while. Unlike Nangong Beiying, who could directly instruct people, she couldn’t do that, nor did she have the authority.
She was very self-aware, respecting both herself and others by not arbitrarily using people who weren’t hers.
No one would think they could just act however they wished to please others. It’s not just about their own desires but considering others’ feelings too.
Nangong Beiying knew what Qin Xue was thinking, which was precisely why she said that. Even though she knew Qin Xue wouldn’t act that way, she wanted to remind her that if anything ca up, Feng could help her run errands or do tasks.
Qin Xue is her sister, whether in past lives or this one, and she wants her to be well, so her people are Qin Xue’s people too.
Yet, Qin Xue always considered herself an outsider, which was sothing Nangong Beiying didn’t want to see—it was too distant, not how family should behave.
But things turned out to be so dramatic. She didn’t use what she could, and thought to use what she couldn’t. Recalling what happened when she returned to the Nangong family, she handled everything so well, yet they still thought she was easily bullied. So, in a decisive move, she made them all leave the Nangong family, and now doesn’t know how they are. They haven’t returned, and neither has she sought them out.
Anyway, for her, following the second uncle’s departure, the Nangong family beca much quieter, which was the best outco.
Besides, it was precisely due to having such people there that the Nangong family nearly fell apart. With the parasites gone, life beca better. Nangong Beiying didn’t regret driving them away at all, and Nangong Kunpeng didn’t say it was wrong either. Instead, he praised her boldness and straightforwardness, saying her approach was excellent and a great support to him.
Often, it’s not about whether to do sothing or not, but thinking about how to do it right. Because their action made things better, fostering greater unity.
Amidst all of this, they could accomplish more and improve things because, for them, unity was paramount. Anything that could cause family division was unacceptable.
No matter how soone behaved, they wouldn’t insist on running the household unless they intended to tear it apart. Nangong Beiying wouldn’t let them do that and straightforwardly drove them away.
