419 Returning It to Its Owner 2

Faced with this question, Yan Zhiyuan looked up at Yan Qingyun and asked coldly, “What do you mean? Do you blame my mother for stealing?”

“Then why did Father hand those things over to my mother to manage? Who can guarantee that doing business will definitely make money? If Father thinks that my mother didn’t do well, why didn’t you say anything when she was alive? Those shops couldn’t make money and closed down. Father must have spent a lot of money every year.”

Yan Zhiyuan was very angry.

He knew that his mother’s methods were vicious, but didn’t Yan Qingyun tacitly approve of this? But why did he remove himself completely when something happened? All the faults had to be carried by a dead woman.

So what if his mother had used some tricks to change those shops?

Why should she work hard to help others guard their family business? Who would be willing to work for others for the rest of their lives?

Yan Qingyun wanted to be vague, but he saw it clearly. He wanted to blame them for some mistakes and even wanted them to bear the responsibility. Don’t even think about it.

Yan Qingyun looked at Yan Zhiyuan angrily, as if he did not expect Yan Zhiyuan to resist him so much.

Yan Qingyun held his breath, but Yan Zhiyuan refused to back down. Both father and son were enraged. After a while, Yan Qingyun laughed sarcastically. “I have underestimated you. Today, I know that you are a tough nut to crack.”

“You idiot, what do you think I’m doing now? You won’t understand even if I tell you. You’re just as stupid as your mother. You only have evil thoughts in your heart, but you don’t have any schemes. If I can go back to the past, I’ll kill you the moment you were born.”

He had racked his brains to make this matter go away. What was Yan Zhiyuan doing? He would have a death wish if he continued to cause trouble.

If this matter could not be resolved, the future generations of the Yan family would be doomed. When would this extremely stupid son understand?

“Apart from saying these few sentences, what else can Father say? I’ve heard these few sentences too many times and am already tired of them.”

Yan Zhiyuan glared at Yan Qingyun fiercely. He did not lower his head like before when he was scolded. This time, he raised his head.

He knew that Yan Qingyun was obedient to the Qi family because he was afraid of that old thing. No matter how powerful the Qi family was, they only had some power in General Qi’s words. However, he was not in good health and could not last for many more years.

The old man’s grandson was long gone, and there was nothing to fear about his great-grandson. Qi Xingzhi was neither good at studying nor martial arts. Qi Xingfeng was good at martial arts but had no brains. Such a person would die the moment he went to the battlefield. There was nothing to fear about the Qi family.

The more Yan Zhiyuan thought about it, the more determined he became. He was not in the wrong, but his father was.

“You, you, you unfilial son—”

Yan Qingyun pointed at Yan Zhiyuan. His hands were shaking and he could not speak properly.

Yan Zhiyuan looked at Yan Qingyun coldly and said, “Father is afraid of the Qi family, but I’m not. I don’t care if you’re angry that you want to use the family’s belongings to quell the Qi family, but I won’t let you touch anything that belongs to me.”

What his mother left behind belonged to him. He could not give it up.

Whether it was the Qi family or the Su family, they were nothing to be afraid of in his eyes.

“If there’s nothing else, Madam Lu and I will take our leave.”

Yan Zhiyuan lowered his head, cupped his hands, and left with Madam Lu.

Yan Qingyun was so angry that he was trembling. He couldn’t come back to his senses for a long time.

He could not imagine why his son could never understand what he was saying.

He had been smart all his life, he knew when to advance and when to retreat, he was clear about his gains and losses, and everyone acknowledged that he who understands the times is a wise man, but he gave birth to such a stupid son.

Both Yan Zhiyuan and Yan Zhenzhen thought that he was heartless, but they never thought that if he was really heartless, why would he allow Qi Xinyue to use such sinister methods to make him only have one son and one daughter for decades?

Even though he knew that she was vicious, he still indulged her. Wasn’t that love?

What did he get in exchange? Qi Xinyue said that he was heartless, and his son and daughter also said that he was heartless. They did not understand his good intentions at all and were simply furious.

Picking up the ledger that had fallen to the ground, Yan Qingyun sighed and continued to check the accounts.

He would need at least 30,000 taels to make up for the shortfall. If he took out this sum of money, he would lose more than half of the Yan family’s a.s.sets. Yan Zhiyuan was stupid, and without strong financial resources, it was impossible for him to advance further in his career as an official.

His two mediocre grandsons, Yan Yuran and Yan Yuanan, wouldn’t be able to go far in their careers. Su Chong and Su Hua were different, and so was Qi Xingzhi. He wanted to smooth things over because of this. At the very least, they couldn’t become enemies.

But Yan Zhiyuan didn’t understand any of this. He thought that General Qi was nothing to be afraid of.

But what about the future? With the support of intelligence, the Qi family would go further, even the current Su Chong and Su Hua. They could go further, and he would not have the chance to completely eliminate them.

On the contrary, he was really the only one in the Yan family. He was old and there was nothing to fear about him. After he died, the Yan family descendants’ apt.i.tude was mediocre. It would not take long for them to be squeezed out of this most luxurious capital.

Yan Qingyun looked at the ledger and coughed tiredly. Perhaps they would only understand his painstaking efforts many years later.

“Sigh… It’s fate. Everything is fate.”

Yan Qingyun let out a long sigh. No one responded to his melancholy. In the quiet main room, even the sound of a needle dropping could be heard. It was desolate and lonely.

He had tried his best. He had really tried his best.

Su Xiaolu’s family returned to their residence from the Qi family. Su Xiaolu and Su Sanlang stayed at home while Su Xiaoling and Madam Zhao went out to buy groceries.

Su Chong, Su Hua, and the others would finish their exam tomorrow.

Madam Zhao wanted to buy some good food to nourish them.

Exams were always tough.

The mother and daughter went to the market to shop. They bought half a lamb’s body, including bones and skin.

They also bought two fish and some pork bones.

When they met Zhou Wenjing, Su Xiaoling became more vigilant.

Zhou Wenjing was first surprised before she smiled as though she had recalled something. “Miss, I haven’t seen you in a long time. What a coincidence to meet you again. Is this your mother? You two look so alike. What did you buy today?”

Zhou Wenjing greeted her naturally. Su Xiaoling couldn’t tell that anything was amiss, but she still dealt with it carefully. She said calmly, “It’s just some common meat. There’s nothing special.”

“That’s true. This is all there is in the market every day.”

Zhou Wenjing smiled and said. Before Su Xiaoling could speak, she carried the basket and said, “I haven’t finished buying yet, so I won’t chat with you and your daughter. I’ll talk to you when I’m free.”

After Zhou Wenjing finished speaking, she smiled at Madam Zhao. “Sister, you look really lucky. I’m really envious of having such a good daughter. See you next time.”

With that said, Zhou Wenjing went elsewhere.

Su Xiaoling held Madam Zhao’s arm and returned. Madam Zhao asked Su Xiaoling gently, “Do you know this madam?”

“I don’t know her. I just met her a few times when I was buying groceries. We didn’t interact much.”

Su Xiaoling smiled and said. She did not want Madam Zhao to remember, so she said it casually. It was not easy for things to pa.s.s during this period of time. It was not easy for Madam Zhao to feel at ease. She did not want Madam Zhao to worry anymore.
