Chapter 316: Any complaints? Ungrateful people!

"Brother, of course we can't let Second Aunt do such a thing. She has no shame, but our family still has dignity, and our father still needs to be buried in peace!"

Zhang Chengyong shook his head. He was in mourning clothes at the time. He was dumbfounded when he heard what his second aunt said. He was so angry that he almost hit his second aunt. But after thinking about it, he decided that now was not the time to have a conflict with his second aunt.

The most important thing at the moment is to let his father pass away in peace. As for his second aunt's matter, we can talk about it later, after his father's funeral is over. At worst, they will never have any contact with each other again until they die.

Zhang Chengze asked curiously, "You mean you convinced your second aunt? How did you convince her?"

He knew his own younger brother very well. He was a person who liked to use his fists rather than his brain. He had been in trouble since he was a child. Fortunately, they were all from the same village and were members of the same clan, so he had not gotten into any big trouble.

I didn't provoke anyone I couldn't afford to provoke!

He was very curious. Since his second aunt had the nerve to say that she would come back in a few days, with his brother's brain, how could he convince her to change her mind?

"I told my second aunt that I don't ask her to come to our house tonight, but at least she can come tomorrow. If she doesn't come, I will kneel at her door forever!"

Zhang Chengyong said indignantly.

According to his personality, his second aunt was unwilling to come, so he wanted to use force to bring her here. However, this was his father's funeral, and if he did so, his second aunt might take advantage of the situation.

Bringing shame to their whole family is no big deal, but the real worry is that his father will not be at peace when he leaves.

Zhang Chengze looked at Zhang Chengyong in surprise and asked in astonishment, "Second Aunt agreed to your doing this?"

"Of course...of course I don't agree!"

Zhang Chengyong snorted in dissatisfaction. He actually didn't expect that after he said those words, his second aunt would have the nerve to say something to him. He could kneel as long as he wanted, just don't starve to death at his doorstep.

When he heard this, he was furious and wanted to beat his second aunt up on the spot, even though she was his elder.

His parents taught him since he was young not to conflict with elders, let alone fight with them.

"I knew it!"

Zhang Chengze snorted, but he was not surprised. He also knew what kind of person his second aunt was. He said, "Then how did you convince her to come tomorrow? Was she trying to trick you?"

then.

As soon as his father passed away, he notified his relatives one by one. When the Zhang family came to help, he prepared to notify his second aunt and younger aunt's family overnight.

first time.

He planned to go find his second aunt, and his younger brother Chengyong would go find his youngest aunt.

after all.

He knew what kind of person his second aunt was, and was afraid that he would not be able to invite her. Ever since her family became rich, they not only looked down on their relatives, but even on their direct relatives like them.

Even though his second aunt often complained that his father cared about his youngest aunt but not her, his father, his mother, and even himself, all knew that his second aunt said that just to make an excuse for herself.

An excuse to convince myself!

Isn't it because she is afraid that their family will take advantage of her?
She has no idea who helped her family become successful.

If his father had not lent her money in the early stage, he could have opened a fur shop for her second aunt's family.

Every time they hunted down prey from the mountains, they would process the hides and sell them to them at a price that was much cheaper than that of other families.

In addition, he introduced many hunters to his second aunt's family, offending countless old customers.

How could their second aunt's family possibly become rich?

Ever since his father's health failed and he decided not to go up the mountain to hunt anymore, he stopped selling furs to his second aunt's family, allowing them to take advantage of him. His second aunt's family's attitude towards their family became worse day by day.

Of course. His family has been hunters for generations. His father quit, so he and his brother followed in his father's footsteps. If they didn't go hunting in the mountains, they would have to rely on the few acres of poor quality mountain fields. It would be difficult for them to support themselves, let alone marry and have children.

Since they became adults, the brothers have gone to the mountains with their father to learn hunting skills. It was not until their father passed away that the brothers took over the hunting career completely.

just.

They did not continue to sell their harvest and processed animal skins to his second aunt's family. It was not because they had no conscience and did not care about their relatives' business, but because his second aunt's family was really black-hearted.

They wanted to get a bargain on his father's cheap animal skins, saying that their skills in hunting wild animals and making animal skins were not as good as his father's, and that the animal skins made by them would have to be difficult to sell, or at least not at a high price.

They wanted to take care of his second aunt's family's business, but they also had to get married and have children, so it was impossible for them to take care of their second aunt's family's business unconditionally.

What's even more outrageous is that they buy furs from other hunters at the same price as outside shops.

This matter.

I mentioned it to his father, but he didn't say anything.

Come to think of it...

Because this incident offended his second aunt's family!
He just didn't expect that his second aunt would do such a thing.

He felt extremely heartbroken that his father had taken care of his second aunt's family for many years, thinking that they had raised a group of ungrateful people and that they would not be able to rest in peace until their death.

No wonder.

When his father was seriously ill, he suggested inviting his younger aunt to come over so that she could see his father for the last time before he passed away. He also suggested inviting his second aunt to come over. His father didn't say anything at the time.

Instead, he waved his hand!

He also thought that his father did not agree with his second aunt coming over for the same reason that he did not want his youngest aunt to come over.

Now it seems.

It was his father who saw that his second aunt's family was a bunch of ungrateful wolves!
No wonder.

In the past, his father would get very angry if his mother complained about his younger aunt, but when his mother talked about his second aunt, his father said nothing.

"When I heard her say this, I was so angry that I was going to force her to come here..."

Before Zhang Chengyong could finish his words, Zhang Chengze interrupted him and said, "If you force her to come here, it's better not to come. Who knows if she will go crazy and make a scene in our father's funeral hall?"

If he had known that his brother had such an idea, he should not have asked his father to inform his second aunt. After all, his father often went to the county town and was very familiar with the soldiers at the county gate.

Some of them are even his younger brother’s fellow apprentices!

It's so late now, it would be difficult to open the city gates without some connections.

"Brother, look at what you said. I think so, but how could I do such a stupid thing?"

Zhang Chengyong snorted in dissatisfaction and explained, "It was Du Guan who came forward and my second aunt agreed to come to our house early tomorrow morning!"

Duguan.

It was his second uncle. However, when he was learning martial arts in a martial arts school in the county town, he met Du Guan in the county town. He called him "second uncle" but he didn't respond. So he was too lazy to call him "second uncle" and just called him by his name.

"Why would it be my second uncle who came forward?"

Zhang Chengze said in surprise.

He knew exactly what kind of person Du Guan was. It could be said that half - no, maybe eighty percent - of the conflicts between his second aunt and their family were instigated by him.

How could he possibly come forward to mediate the conflict this time?
