Chapter 269 - 269 The Truth

269 The Truth

Gu Man thought that she had nothing important to do tonight, so she nodded.

Xiang Yin looked at Old Master Cui, who suddenly interrupted, helplessly. However, at this moment, he was in the Cui Family and Gu Man had already agreed. He had no reason and no status to stop her.

Old Master Cui clearly felt Xiang Yin take a step back. He snorted disdainfully on the surface, but he was happy in his heart. This kid was quite tactful.

While they were eating at the Cui Family, Jia Ling and her two daughters did not come down. It seemed like Elder Cui had made up his mind to lock them up.

Cui Hong, whom she had met once in the ghost market, did not appear either.

Old Master Cui sensed Gu Man’s gaze and explained, “I asked Jia Ling and Cui Ya to reflect on themselves upstairs. This is not a small matter and has to be dealt with seriously. Cui Xuan is accompanying her sister, so she didn’t come down to eat. Cui Hong is busy with work, so I’m basically the only one eating in the huge Cui Family.”

Old Master Cui’s words revealed a hint of loneliness. The matter of old people being left alone at home was inevitable, but she did not expect such a thing to happen among the four great families.

Although Old Master Cui looked serious on the surface, he also hoped that his children and grandchildren would be happy and harmonious. That was why he was very angry at Jia Ling for sowing discord.

“Old Master Cui, I’ll treat Ah Mai when I’m free in the future. I can eat with you afterward.”

Gu Man’s words touched Cui Lao’s heart.

“Good girl.”

The atmosphere at the dining table was harmonious, but the atmosphere upstairs was especially gloomy.

Jia Ling looked at the food that was served and swept it to the ground. She roared angrily, but unfortunately, the room’s soundproofing was too good and no one could hear her.

She looked at her ferocious face in the mirror and clenched her fists.

“Gu Man, right? I definitely won’t let you step into the Cui Family!”

In the other room, Cui Xuan sat on the bed and rocked her chair. She watched as Cui Ya complained about Gu Man non-stop. “Why didn’t you scold that bad woman with me back then? If it weren’t for her, Brother wouldn’t have been injured.”

“But Brother isn’t injured. When I looked at him just now, he was playing with his toys obediently.”

Cui Ya’s words were blocked, but she still did not want to acknowledge Gu Man. She subconsciously looked for something to add, “That’s just a coincidence. He happened to wake up today. Who knows what the bad woman will do to Brother next time? At that time, we won’t be able to live in a big house and can only live in a smelly sewer.”

Cui Xuan shook her head seriously. “No, Grandpa dotes on us very much. He won’t throw us into a smelly sewer.”

“Grandpa is also a bad grandfather. He can’t see that bad woman’s true colors at all. He even hit me because of that bad woman. I don’t want to like Grandpa anymore.”

As she spoke, Cui Ya started crying. Her hands kept hitting the doll in her arms.

“Sister, but Teacher also said not to judge casually before understanding the truth.”

Cui Ya stopped crying and looked at Cui Xuan unhappily.

“Are you still my sister? You’ve been speaking up for that bad woman time and time again. Do you know that if you let her in, we won’t have a place to survive in the Cui Family?”

“I don’t think she’ll be like this. Besides, Mom told us that our brother was injured, but I saw that brother is healthy. Things might not be as Mom thinks. Mom might have made a mistake, but we can’t make a mistake with her.”

Cui Xuan brainwashed Cui Ya reasonably. Cui Ya thought for a while and seemed to think that Cui Xuan made sense.

“Hmph, then let’s wait for the next time the bad woman comes. We’ll secretly hide in the room and see what the bad woman wants.”

“Isn’t that bad?”

Cui Xuan looked hesitant, and Cui Ya was immediately dissatisfied.

“You said that the truth is not what Mom said, but you refused to explore the truth with me. Then who knows who’s telling the truth?”

Cui Xuan nodded thoughtfully and agreed.

The people downstairs did not know what had happened upstairs, and the meal was coming to an end. After Gu Man bade farewell to Old Master Cui, she brought Huang Jue into Xiang Yin’s car.
