Therefore, even though he told himself to endure it, he still couldn’t help but break the seal.
“What’s so impressive about you talking nonsense in front of me? Since you said you’re a member of the Le family, then showing off to others outside is what you call ‘ability’.”
Le Wan looked at him in surprise.
“Second Uncle, have you not gone for a physical examination recently? Why are you talking nonsense at the age of 40 or 50? Just now, you advised me not to be complacent and to be humble. In the end, as soon as you finished speaking, you asked me to show off in front of outsiders. Isn’t the meaning behind your words contradictory?
Le Wan pointed at his head.
“Are you sure you don’t want to have your brain checked?”
“Le Wan!”
Second Uncle Le’s angry roar immediately made everyone present glare at him.
“Brother, you’re so capable. Are you going to get angry at a little girl like her?” Papa Le asked him coldly. His eyes were like daggers stabbing into his body.
Big Brother Le rolled up his sleeves, revealing his muscular arms. Even Little Brother Le, who wasn’t tall, was glaring at him with his teeth bared.
It was as if he would really be beaten up by the father and sons if he dared to say anything unpleasant about Le Wan. Second Uncle Le felt a little regretful for a moment. He could have picked anyone, but why would he want to provoke this troublesome little brat, Le Wan?
If he lost to Le Wan, he would lose face. If he won and made Le Wan cry, the people of the first household wouldn’t let him off easily. But now that he was so angry, was he going to apologize to a little brat just because he said something? That would be too embarrassing.
Second Uncle Le couldn’t bring himself to do so, so he forced himself to say stubbornly,
“Why is it that she can criticize me, but I can’t criticize her? No matter how much you dote on her, you should teach her basic etiquette and let her learn to respect her elders. Otherwise, if you bring her out, she will still be so arrogant and will only bring shame to our Le family.”
The veins on Papa Le’s neck bulged as soon as he heard that. He clenched his fists tightly as if he was going to rush forward if he said another word.
Second Uncle Le subconsciously took a step back in fear when he saw his furious expression.
Papa Le was indeed very angry. As parents, they couldn’t bear to say harsh words to Le Wan. Who was his brother to dare to say such things about their baby?
However, when he saw Second Uncle Le’s disappointing and cowardly appearance, the anger in his heart dissipated a lot. It was too boring to fight with such a person.
“You don’t have to care about Baby’s upbringing,” Papa Le said sarcastically.
“The Le family has lost all their face with you as their second-generation heir.
Why do we have to drag Baby into the water to be your shield?”
Actually, Le Wan didn’t care about these so-called cold words. However, after seeing how angry Father Le and the others were, she subconsciously followed suit. Hence, after Father Le finished speaking, she immediately followed.
“That’s right, that’s right. I think you’re worrying too much, Second Uncle. With a weirdo like you guarding the Le Family, who among us juniors can surpass you? Moreover, you said that I don’t respect my elders. Second Uncle, don’t you think about it? With your behavior, you haven’t given us a good example from the beginning to the end. You want me to respect you?
“Baby, you can’t say that.” Mama Le gave her a gentle nudge. “Is your second uncle not trying to improve himself? Doesn’t he want others to look up to him? Wasn’t this impossible? We have to be more understanding of him.”
Big Brother Le was even worse. He sized him up from head to toe with a disdainful gaze. It was much more insulting not to speak than to speak.
Perhaps Second Uncle Le should be thankful that Second Brother Le wasn’t home today. Otherwise, with his vicious mouth, he might have said something even worse.
The second uncle was so angry that he couldn’t say a word. In the end, he could only stomp his feet and shout,
“You’re going too far!”
Then, he ran away dejectedly.
As soon as he got into the car, a taxi stopped beside him. Le Yan jumped out of the car and ran over when she saw him.
“How is it? Have you found Grandpa and Grandma’s whereabouts?”
Second Uncle Le, who was already angry, heard her words and immediately remembered that Old Master Le refused to answer his call. He even scolded him as soon as he opened his mouth. He instantly became even angrier.
“Why are you worrying so much? You’re not in school.. What are you doing here? Do you think you’re a top student like Le Wan? Do you think you can get into a good school just by studying? Why don’t you take a look at yourself!”
