CHAPTER 612: CHAPTER 612: THESE TWO MUST NOT BE PROVOKED

The decision regarding Geng Lihua’s handling quickly spread through the transportation company’s family compound.

When everyone discussed the Lu Family, they couldn’t help but gain a further understanding of Captain He and his partner. These two are not to be messed with.

At this moment, the atmosphere in the Lu Family was very heavy, and the eldest daughter-in-law, Ma Xiaohong, looked at her father-in-law sitting at the head: "Dad, the trouble our family is facing is all because of Xingyan from my aunt’s family. My mom did those things because of her. Their family should be held responsible."

The eldest daughter-in-law’s words were no surprise to Captain Lu, but how should he approach them? It’s not good to demand compensation, right?

Moreover, Xingyan is no outsider. If he actually went, it would probably be more troublesome.

Seeing her father-in-law remain silent, the recently married second daughter-in-law, Song Erjia, said displeased: "Dad, despite being upset with cousin, the situation won’t reverse. But our family paid a thousand yuan and was fined fifty. The least my aunt’s family should do is acknowledge it.

Even if they don’t, they should at least know about this, right? We can’t just quietly bear it all, can we?"

Captain Lu was vexed and confused: "Enough, they’re family. How can we say anything? Besides, Xingyan just mentioned it to your mom, and she misunderstood, making her own mistakes. How can we lay all the blame on Xingyan?"

The people in the room widened their eyes at these words.

Even the usually obedient eldest son, Lu Guangsheng, frowned and said, "Dad, that was the family’s entire savings. This started because of cousin. Are we really not going to talk to them about it?"

Captain Lu glanced at his eldest son: "That’s your own aunt. Your uncle is in poor health. We can’t create more trouble, can we?"

The sons and daughters-in-law of the Lu Family were infuriated by these words from their father/father-in-law. The family had worked hard to save that money, and it was just thrown away like that?

The people in the room all fell silent, each lost in their own thoughts.

Just then, there was a knock at the door of the courtyard: "Uncle, are you home?"

The people inside the room heard the voice and knew the culprit they were discussing earlier had arrived.

Lu Family’s eldest daughter-in-law, Ma Xiaohong, stood up with a dark expression: "I’ll get the door."

With that, she walked out.

Mao Xingyan saw the door opened by her eldest cousin-in-law: "Cousin-in-law, what’s happened at home? Why do people look at me strangely when I came?"

Lu Family’s eldest daughter-in-law replied sourly: "Isn’t it because of you? The Lu Family is almost a laughingstock at the transportation company."

Having said that, she turned around and went back inside.

Mao Xingyan, hearing her cousin-in-law’s words, got a bit angry and said: "Cousin-in-law, how did I offend you for you to speak to me like this?"

Lu Family’s eldest daughter-in-law, already full of rage, immediately replied: "You caused our whole family to be unable to hold our heads high in the family compound and still expect me to welcome you with a smile?"

Mao Xingyan was even more furious: "Eldest cousin-in-law, explain to me clearly how I harmed you?"

At this point, Captain Lu worried that the situation might escalate. He quickly intervened: "Enough, why argue in the courtyard? Come in and talk. Isn’t it embarrassing enough?"

Mao Xingyan pushed past the eldest cousin-in-law, Ma Xiaohong, and went straight into the house: "Uncle, what’s going on?"

She had calculated that her uncle would be home today before coming over. A few days ago, she and her colleague went shopping at the department store and set her sights on a woolen coat, but her mom refused to buy it. So, she thought of coming over to find her second aunt and uncle.

But as soon as she entered the family compound, everyone gave her weird looks. She wanted to ask what was going on, but they all dispersed as soon as she approached.

Captain Lu looked at his niece standing in front of him and then at his sons and daughters-in-law in the room. He sighed softly, "Your second aunt got into trouble?"

Mao Xingyan scanned the room: "Where is my second aunt? What happened?"

She thought it surely couldn’t be anything good, no wonder the people in the compound looked at her like that. Seeing Captain Lu remain silent, she felt a bit anxious. If her second aunt was in trouble, who would she ask for the money for the coat? "Uncle, tell me!"
