Rebirth in the 90s: Her Counterattack and Redemption-Chapter 87 - 73 Liberation_2

"Luo Sihua, if you don’t want to stay, just leave and get a divorce. Stop embarrassing me here. Haven’t you taken advantage of Fourth? Where did the money for the kids’ schooling come from? The money you sneakily send to your family—did you think I didn’t know? I just thought your parents had it tough too, so I didn’t expose you. But you really think highly of yourself!" Uncle Luo’s lips trembled with anger.

"You heartless person... back then..."

"That’s enough!" Luo Zhenggang’s sudden authority silenced the Aunt who was about to lash out.

"Sister-in-law, I, Luo Zhenggang, have been fair to everyone over the years. Not a penny of my salary has stayed at home; Wen Xin has never minded. Would Sister-in-law allow that?

Personal virtue? You mentioned that word just now, didn’t you? How much personal virtue do you think you have, Sister-in-law? Dad is in such good health, and you’re eyeing this house? Is that what you call having personal virtue?" Luo Zhenggang looked seriously at Uncle Luo: "Brother, what do you think?"

"Fourth brother, I’ve said before, stop sending your salary to us, but you never listen. The money you send can’t even reach me; these wives snatch it up first. I’ve fought with her many times over this. Today, I forced her to come and apologize to you and your wife. But who knew this wretched woman had such intentions, alas!" Uncle Luo sighed heavily, his head in his hands.

Luo Zhenggang nodded, "It’s good that Brother has spoken up. Sister-in-law, from now on, I won’t give a penny to you all. I will take care of Dad’s living expenses. ƒrēewebnoѵёl.cσm

When Dad gets older, he will live with us. By then, I’ll probably be retired. If Dad doesn’t want to move to the city, Wen Xin and I will come to the countryside to take care of him. We’ve discussed this already."

Wen Xin quickly nodded and stated, "Dad, in the future, Zhenggang and I will take care of your old age, everything according to your wishes."

"Fourth, does that mean even the house will be yours?" Aunt’s eyes widened, fixated on that point after Fourth said so much.

"Is Sister-in-law the one who built this house?"

"Even if it wasn’t me..." Feeling Luo Zhenggang’s imposing aura, the Aunt suddenly couldn’t continue, realizing for the first time that this always polite Fourth, is an official even higher than a County Magistrate, who knew if they would need him in the future?

"Let Fourth have the house then, hehe..., when Luo Ning gets married, we’ll build one for him."

The forced smile on her plump face made Luo Ye feel nauseated. She was urgently dealing with Wenxin Garden matters precisely because she understood deeply the relationship between money and dignity. Intellectuals may loftily speak of spiritual wealth being more important than material wealth, but is that feasible?

Are siblings fighting over inheritance until they are dead and estranged rare? Aunt, Second Aunt, and Auntie’s strenuous arrangements for work, aren’t these ultimately about money?

Not everyone values money so highly, but at least she was clear about her own relatives, thus, her first priority back then was to have good financial security, not only for a better life for her family but also in preparation for future endeavors.

It’s not wrong to value money, but as the proverb goes, a gentleman seeks wealth in a proper way, shouldn’t unload all his responsibilities onto others, right?

As for Uncle Luo marrying such an exceptional wife like Luo Sihua, it originated from the Luo family’s poverty, difficulty in finding a bride. Luo Sihua, seeing Uncle’s capabilities, actively sought a matchmaker. Hence, Uncle always felt a bit inferior to her.

So it goes, whether men or women, having a good partner and a group of sincerely caring relatives is a great blessing.

Aunt felt uncomfortable under Luo Ye’s slightly cold gaze and coughed lightly, "Dad, Fourth Brother, Sister-in-law, I’m going home to cook, come over for dinner tonight."

Grandpa Luo waved his hand, "No need, sincerity isn’t shown by just a meal."

After Luo Sihua left, Grandpa Luo looked at Uncle Luo, "Call Second and Third, I have something to announce."

...

While the elders were meeting in the room, Luo Ye hugged Song Qiu and Dou Dou chatting with her brother, "Brother, see, finding a virtuous wife is more important than anything, be sure to heed advice later. Would Uncle Luo live like this if he had listened to Grandpa’s advice back then?"

"Ye’er, why bring up something involving me for no reason?" Luo Feng’s face bore a bitter smile, "Don’t worry, if Ye’er and Mom don’t approve, I won’t marry."

"Remember your own words!" Luo Ye gossiped with a grin, "Brother, Ying Nuo is quite good, consider it."

"Ye’er..." Luo Feng looked speechless.

Luo Ye pouted discontentedly, "Ying Nuo is so beautiful and virtuous, why does Brother make such a face?"

"It’s not that I dislike Ying Nuo, she’s just too young, and being Ye’er’s friend, feels awkward."

"Alright, let’s not mention this for now, we’ll see about the future!" Luo Ye tugged at her hair helplessly, "Nuonuo said it feels like incest, Brother just said it’s awkward, really, people in ancient times even had cousins marry each other."

The siblings chatted idly, and before they knew it, the sky was blushing red. Luo Ye wasn’t worried about Grandpa’s family meeting; she already guessed its content, just that, it might take a long time for aunts to fully accept it.

Indeed, after the meeting, Aunt stormed out with a gloomy face, while Uncle Luo and Second Uncle seemed relieved. Luo Ye leaned close to her mom, lowering her voice, "Mom, tell me what was discussed?"

"You naughty girl, you know it already, don’t you?" Wen Xin smiled as she tousled Little Songqiu’s hair, "Just as adorable as my Ye’er."

"Mom..."
