Ming Cheng's heart was startled, and he was not sure how much truth there was in Guan's words.
But knowing that the Guan family has always valued their reputation, they were afraid that something bad would get out, so their old face flushed and they went with the flow and said, "That's great. We are all family, so if there is any conflict, we can talk it out."
He turned around and sternly reprimanded the younger generation, "What happened today, don't let anyone know. Did you hear me?"
Ming Ruyi cried and shouted, "Did my mother get smashed in vain?"
Ming Chengzhong's eyes widened, and Ming Ruyi was so scared that she didn't dare to say another word.
But suddenly Madam Ming burst into laughter. The laughter was indescribably desolate and powerless, yet it was filled with unprecedented determination. "Great, so this is the so-called family tradition of the Ming family. One is always quarrelsome and asks the younger generation in the family to be someone else's concubine! The other is greedy and can settle things for a few family belongings! Great! I have lived my whole life and thought I couldn't write two 'Ming' characters with one stroke. Now I am really enlightened!"
Ming Chengyi and Ming Chengfu's faces changed at the same time, as if the cooked duck had flown away. "What does cousin-in-law mean by this?"
"Literally!" Madam Ming stopped smiling and said in a calm but heavy voice, "The master said in his early years that the famine was hard and the people in the tribe were struggling to get enough food and clothing, so he would help them as much as he could. So he brought you brothers and sisters and your families to Muzhou, taught you business, bought you property, supported you, and took care of you."
Ming Chengzhong's eyebrows drooped. "Why are we talking about the old almanac? It's not like we don't remember it. We often..."
Guan didn't even look at the other party and continued, "Later, the master often told me that there is no end to business, and only when the family prospers can it be truly prosperous. Prosperity is shared by all, and adversity is shared by all. Only when the family members are united can they help each other. He often asked me to spend more time with my cousins and not to lose our friendship."
"Brother, what you said is correct." Ming Chengfu was shameless, "If not..."
Guan was unusually strong, still ignoring everyone, and only lowered her eyebrows and said, "I think I have been able to meet the requests of each family over the years and maintain the so-called friendship of the Ming family. I have given you all the benefits that you should give me, and you have never been polite to me when it comes to the benefits that you shouldn't give me. But obviously, you think it's not enough, and you want to empty my family's wealth and even want to take my dowry."
Although the old guys in Mingcheng are thick-skinned, they have never lost face in front of so many young people.
I never expected that one day this weak and easy-going cousin-in-law would put everything on the table. With his old face flushed, he inexplicably had a foreboding premonition that something big was going to happen.
Ming Chengfu was furious, "Don't be so harsh, cousin! Your family has done such a shameful thing, affecting all the young people in the Ming family who are getting married. Shouldn't you give them due compensation?"
When Old Madam Ming heard him bring up the issue of her great-granddaughter being kidnapped, she felt so sad that she stopped trying to argue and just lowered her eyes, thinking about something.
Seeing this, the bleeding Liu no longer pretended to be dead. She sat up straight and shouted loudly, regardless of her manners, "Even if you want to compensate me now, I won't agree! Report to the police! Do you still believe that there is no place for justice in the land of the Northern Wing? You beat up your own elders, and your Mingyan family's reputation is ruined! If you want to take the imperial examinations to seek fame in the future, I'm afraid you can't do it."
Madam Ming seemed to have heard something funny again. She did not argue. She turned her head to look at Shi Anxia, then at Ming Zhao and Ming Yan. When she saw the determined and bright eyes of her younger generations, she suddenly felt strong in her heart and shouted to the outside of the door, "Come in."
After hearing the order, a group of people rushed in from the door.
Leading the way was the Duke of Protectorate Tang Chuyu, who was pushing Ming Chengyuan in a wheelchair, followed by Zheng Qiaoer and several masters of the Cheng generation.
Afterwards they were arranged according to seniority. Although there were many people, they appeared in order of age.
The young men had tall and straight figures, and the women were demure and graceful. They all kowtowed to Old Madam Ming and Princess Haiyan.
Even Ming Yan and Ming Zhao, who had just stood on both sides of the main seat, consciously stood into the crowd and hid among the younger generations.
