Rebirth: The Courtyard Bride Is Cool and Radiant Chapter 526 How Do You Have the Nerve to Say These Words

Qin Jianghui didn’t notice his cousin’s distress and spoke with a careless swagger, "That was forced on by Grandpa. I never liked her, and after Old Master Chu passed away, she’s just an orphan girl who won’t be of any help to ."

When Jiangchao heard this, he said with contempt, "How can you have the face to say such things?"

Now Qin Jianghui also sensed sothing amiss. "Cousin, what do you an by that?"

Jiangchao placed the cigarette in his mouth, took a harsh drag, then fiercely stubbed out the butt on the wall. "What I despise most are treacherous and disloyal people."

Qin Jianghui hadn’t expected his own cousin to say such a thing. "Cousin, Grandpa approved calling off the engagent with Chuyunyi. Are you criticizing Grandpa with your words?"

Jiangchao looked at him, twisting the truth to his advantage. "If you hadn’t made such a fuss, would Grandpa have agreed to the Qin and Chu families calling off the engagent?"

Qin Jianghui was now sowhat displeased. "It’s called off, so it’s called off. Grandpa hasn’t said anything. Why are you so concerned about it, Cousin?"

Jiangchao threw the extinguished cigarette butt onto the ground. "Soday you’ll regret it."

He knew about his cousin’s relationship with Long Yueyue. Given Long Yueyue’s arrogant and vain nature, if she were to marry into the family, he feared there would be no peace for the Qin Family ever again. But he wouldn’t say this out loud. The path was his cousin’s own choosing, and even if he had to crawl, he’d have to walk it. He was waiting to see his cousin beco a laughingstock.

Qin Jianghui did not take his cousin’s words to heart but rely scoffed at his retreating figure, "He’s just half a year older than , yet he always acts like he wants to lecture soone. What’s there to be so arrogant about?"

If it weren’t for his cousin’s genuine abilities and influence with Grandpa, he wouldn’t be showing him any goodwill. After all, Qin Jianghui might need to tap into his cousin’s network of contacts soday.

Inside the house, Second Brother Qin Honggang actually disagreed with the approach taken by his father and eldest brother. Recently, there had been significant changes, with many people who were sent away for "reeducation" returning to their work positions. Of course, he knew that Qin Lijuan’s case was different; she had violated the law, unlike the others. Her only way out was to behave well and seek a sentence reduction. From what he could see at the mont, it wouldn’t be long before Qin Lijuan’s status would no longer affect the work and lives of those around her as it had before. Of course, to say it wouldn’t have any impact at all would be impossible. If they were to publicly disown Qin Lijuan in the papers now, people would only see the Qin Family as cold-hearted, and afterwards, it’s doubtful that many families would want to associate with the Qin Family. He understood this principle, and naturally, the old man did too. But for the sake of imdiate gains and losses, the old man still chose the present course of action.

The situation at the Zhang Family, in similar circumstances, was no better.

When Fang Zhichun was first taken away, her Zhang clan relatives nearly berated her imdiate family to the point where they doubted their own existence.

Old Master Zhang was so angry that he almost suffered a relapse of his old illness. If he hadn’t received dical attention promptly, he might have ended up paralyzed.

Fang Zhichun’s children, due to her sentencing, were criticized and pointed at so much that they barely dared to leave their hos these days.

Zhang Baosheng and his sister Zhang Baoxiang also had an irreparable fallout over the Fang Zhichun incident.

Zhang Baoxiang even declared, "The Ye Family has already arranged for Ye Wenjuan’s surna to be changed back to Zhang, and they won’t allow Ye Wenjuan to return to the Ye Family in the future. As for my brother and I, if there’s nothing important, we don’t need to visit each other anymore."

Zhang Baosheng understood that his sister’s life in the Ye Family must have been tough due to the foolish acts of his wife, Fang Zhichun. Yet, thinking of Ye Wenjuan, he couldn’t help but frown. Even if his brother-in-law’s life wasn’t as prosperous as that of two other older male cousins in the Ye family in Beijing, it was still a very privileged life. Now that his niece was considered their own daughter, given Ye Wenjuan’s nature, she probably would not want to return to the Zhang Family.
