Chapter 352 Don't Blame Me for Turning My Back

"Auntie, Auntie, Xuejia didn't mean it, you..."

Seeing her daughter being slapped again and again, Yan Hui felt sorry for her and rushed over to plead for her. However, before she could finish speaking, Yan Xiaotian stopped her.

Yan Xiaotian looked helpless: "Cousin, it's always the parents' fault if their children aren't taught properly. It's also the right thing for my aunt to do to educate Xiao Jia."

Xiao Jia refers to Yan Hui's daughter, Fu Xuejia.

"But...but...Xiao Hu didn't do it on purpose..." Yan Hui looked at Fu Xuejia's swollen cheeks and felt a pang of heartache.

Meanwhile, Fu Xuejia was grabbed and slapped twice more, making her furious.

Seeing Yan Liti elegantly take out a handkerchief and wipe her palms after hitting someone, looking at her with disdain, made her so angry she almost fainted.

She came to the Yan family to meet her relatives on the eve of the Lunar New Year.

We also spent the New Year at the Yan family's old house.

She only learned that her maternal family was a wealthy and powerful clan like the Yan family at the end of December this year, after her father passed away.

A cousin she rarely contacted came to her house to offer his condolences.

I also gave her son a free fortune telling while I was at it.

She said her son was destined for great wealth and honor, but for some reason, his fate was altered.

When her mother, Yan Hui, heard this, her expression was somewhat complicated and strange.

Under her persistent questioning, she learned that her mother was actually the eldest daughter of the second branch of the Yan family!

After her mother ran away from home with her father for true love, she didn't actually go very far; she stayed in Tsu City, not far from Kyoto.

As for why she didn't go back, her mother said it was because she was ashamed.

But Fu Xuejia doesn't think so.

Instead, she felt some resentment towards her mother for not going back to her, which had caused her so many years of poverty.

So as soon as the seven-day mourning period for his father passed, Fu Xuejia immediately took Yan Hui to the Yan family.

However, after arriving at the Yan family...

She then realized that wealthy families like the Yan family looked down on people like them who came from poor backgrounds.

Here, the family of four was looked down upon quite a bit.

This feeling of being looked down upon has been building up.

She couldn't hold back her anger any longer when she learned that Yan Liti was coming back with her granddaughter.

The Yan family didn't want to talk to the four of them, so she made inquiries outside and found out that the granddaughter her great-aunt Yan Liti was going to bring back was actually an illegitimate child.

But she insisted on going back to the Yan family and still acted like a proper young lady.

Especially these members of the Yan family, they all look down on her mother, look down on her, and look down on her son.

She was stingy and only gave a hundred or so yuan in red envelopes during the Chinese New Year. But when she learned that Yan Liti was bringing her granddaughter back, she went to great lengths to prepare all sorts of valuable gifts, which made her even more resentful.

On what grounds?!

Speaking of which, both Yan Liti, this great-aunt, and her mother Yan Hui, were married women.

Then her son and the other party's granddaughter should have the same status.

Why does the Yan family look down on them, yet treat Yan Liti's granddaughter with such care and respect?!

That wasn't even a boy yet, just a worthless girl!

Now that Yan Liti has even attacked him for this illegitimate daughter, Fu Xuejia is bound to be furious.

His rationality vanished instantly, and he spat at Yan Liti.

The insults became increasingly vile: "Pah, you old hag, even if you beat me to death, your granddaughter was born out of wedlock, she's an illegitimate child!"

"Just this one worthless illegitimate daughter, and you insist that all the younger generation of the Yan family in Kyoto rush back! What a big mouth you have! Are you afraid that others won't know you've brought back an illegitimate daughter? Aren't you afraid of being laughed at by people in your circle?!"

Fu Xuejia's cursing became more and more fluent, and he vented all the anger he had suffered at the Yan family's house on Yan Liti.

Yan Liti's face was beyond ugly.

Yan Xiaotian's expression was also not good.

Yan Liti is bringing Qiao Qiao back today. She gave the notice yesterday and notified all the younger generation in Kyoto, but this did not include Yan Hui's family of four.

To put it bluntly, Yan Xiaotian looked down on his cousin, who had eloped with a man years ago and taken most of the second wife's property.

When Yan Hui brought her daughter, son-in-law, and grandson to visit her family, he treated them all as poor relatives trying to freeload.

However, his second cousin, Yan Weihua, suffered a stroke a couple of years ago and has not yet recovered, so he can't speak clearly.

Every time he saw Yan Hui, he became emotional and could barely utter a few complete words.

He didn't understand what his second uncle meant.

After all, he and Yan Hui lived in separate rooms.

He could only wait for his eldest cousin, Yan Nongzhong, who had gone to Taipei to spend the Lunar New Year with his eldest son, to come back and take charge of his family's messy affairs.

Unexpectedly, this incident occurred before Yan Nongzhong even returned.

Yan Xiaotian scratched his sparse head, feeling a real headache coming on.

Just as he was about to signal that he had heard the commotion, a servant came over and took Fu Xuejia away.

Then Yan Liti said from the side, "It seems you guys usually make up stories about people, slander soldiers, belittle others' character, and damage their reputation. In that case, let's call the police."

After saying this, Yan Liti looked at one of the younger members of the Yan family and gestured for him to call the police.

Fu Xuejia, who was extremely angry, finally stopped talking when he heard this and looked at Yan Liti in disbelief.

Yan Hui finally realized what was happening and hurriedly grabbed Yan Liti's arm, pleading, "Auntie, please, please! The child is just being silly, we'll definitely teach him a lesson..."

Yan Liti disgustedly pulled her clothes back.

Going along with her words, I said, "That's right, they're so immature, so isn't it a good idea to send them to the police station for a proper lesson?"

As she spoke, Yan Liti looked at the other members of the Yan family.

The Yan family is large and powerful, so she naturally knew that there would definitely be people gossiping and having opinions about Qiao Qiao.

The purpose of my visit is to explain the situation.

However, she didn't expect that before she even started, someone would cause trouble in front of her.

After shaking off Yan Hui, Yan Liti looked at the others and said seriously, "I will only say this once. My granddaughter is named Qiao Qiao. She is the legitimate child born to my son and daughter-in-law. She is not an illegitimate child."

"As for why you don't know that my son got married and who my daughter-in-law is, I can't tell you that. You know that Qingyan has a special identity, and there are some things that need to be kept secret. I can't reveal everything."

"I'll only say this once. If I hear any of you say anything unpleasant again, don't blame me for turning my back on you."

He watched as everyone nodded in agreement, their voices rising and falling.

Yan Liti nodded in satisfaction.

When he turned to look at the family of four, his expression turned sour: "As for you, go somewhere cool and get out of my way!"
