"Hmph, that’s good. That little bitch dares to threaten me with this matter. Now I’ll make sure she’s dominated by men for the rest of her life."
"Hehe, don’t worry." Burly Lu smirked wickedly, his hand returning to Old Lady Hua’s chest, and thought to himself that this woman was already in her fifties, and yet her body was still so plump, soft, and tender. Old Yang really wasted her. Fortunately, he’s here to take over now.
"Come on, let’s do it again while we have this great opportunity."
After a round of lewdness, the two dressed and left separately.
Meanwhile, Yang Chuxia’s family had also arrived at Wangquan Town by ox cart. Of course, Ms. Wang and Yang Dachuan did not ride in the ox cart. Instead, the four children paid eight copper coins to sit in it.
Yang Chuxia counted the remaining copper coins and found that after paying the fare, they still had forty-five left.
Old Lady Hua had thrown away fifty-three copper coins. What could she do with such a small amount of money? She couldn’t help but feel a little resentful towards Ms. Wang, thinking that if it weren’t for her, she could have scammed more money out of her.
"Mother, next time I ask for money from my step-grandmother, you and father must not say anything, okay? Also, not only when I’m asking for money, but also when I’m arguing with them, you don’t have to side with me, but don’t hold me back either. Otherwise, I’ll get angry."
"What are you talking about, child? She’s your grandmother, and she gave you the money, so you’ll see. Your aunt and the rest will definitely ask for more too."
"I can’t control that. All I know is that they eat and drink because my father works hard, so it’s right for me to ask her for money." As she spoke, she glanced at the silent Yang Dachuan, "Father, do you think what I said is right?"
Yang Dachuan, caught between his wife and daughter, didn’t know what to say and simply scratched his head while chuckling.
"Father, Mother, just listen to my sister. She must be doing the right thing!" Yang Qingrui is now fully on Yang Chuxia’s side, he said while pulling Ms. Wang, "Everything my sister does is for our siblings’ sake. Since father and mother can’t protect us from being held down by grandma, let my sister handle it. You guys can’t do anything, but my sister can! You just need to stop controlling her."
Hearing the voice from behind, Yang Chuxia turned back and gave Yang Qingrui a thumbs up, "Little brother, you’re doing great! Thank you for trusting your sister so much!"
"Of course! Besides, I’m not wrong!"
"Father, Mother, being filial to our grandparents is your responsibility. In the future, don’t involve us siblings. We just need to be filial to you. That old lady has nothing to do with us, and she didn’t raise us."
Seeing that Yang Qingrui made a lot of sense, Yang Dachuan and his wife didn’t respond, so Yang Chuxia took the opportunity to say it again. She thought that she must not miss any chance to brainwash this honest couple, washing their minds several times should do the trick.
What she didn’t know was that, although Yang Dachuan and his wife didn’t explicitly say that they were on her side, they decided, like Yang Qingrui said, to let their daughter do whatever she wants from now on. After all, their daughter is stronger than them and won’t be mistreated. Plus, she can protect her siblings, so they can’t hold her back. As for filial piety, they’re enough.
"Father, Mother, you haven’t eaten anything this morning either. There’s a bun shop over there, let’s go buy some buns to fill our stomachs!"
As she spoke, Yang Chuxia waved to Ms. Wang and Yang Dachuan behind her and ran towards the bun shop. As she ran, she thought to herself, the Sea God festival really brings a lot of people. She just didn’t know which part of the sea the worship ceremony would take place.
