Ma snorted dismissively.

“Am I supposed to be afraid of her?” Shao Liulang paid her no mind as she continued her nonsensical chatter.

Frowning, he interjected, “Forget it, there’s no need to inquire further.

Even if you find out, what difference will it make?

Let me handle this.” Shao Xiaozhi’s tears welled up again.

“Sixth Brother, what do you mean?” Impatiently, Shao Liulang glanced at her.

“Young Master Zhao and the first branch of the family have already exchanged pleasantries.

Their intentions won’t change.

What more do you want?

Our family’s situation isn’t bad now.

You can find a suitable match!” Shao Xiaozhi bit her lip.

“But, but none are as good as Young Master Zhao…” If she hadn’t been his sister by blood, Shao Liulang would have scoffed.

How many wealthy young masters like Zhao Shu existed?

They were truly ambitious, daring to aspire to anything.

He harbored similar aspirations, but he understood his limitations.

He knew he couldn’t reach for them at his current stage.

Perhaps in the future… He’d have his chance then.

Shao Liulang’s tone turned stern as he cautioned, “No one in Shaoding Village can aspire to marry someone like Young Master Zhao.” Shao Xiaozhi blurted out, “If only you had achieved an official position sooner, Sixth Brother!” Shao Liulang’s sharp gaze pierced her, causing her to instinctively retreat behind Ms.

Ma, startled.

She had never seen such intensity in her brother’s eyes before.

It made her feel a twinge of fear… Clasping his fists, Shao Liulang responded calmly, “Nonsense.

Do you think it’s easy to attain the status of a recommended man or Advanced Scholar?

It requires not just ability, but luck as well.” Third Uncle and Ms.

Ma nodded in agreement.

Seeing their reactions, Shao Liulang realized it was futile to continue.

He grew even more impatient and despondent.

What kind of family did he have?

None of them understood!

Though he had contemplated distancing himself from them, he feared they might act recklessly, so he patiently explained his thoughts.

It took some time, but eventually Third Uncle and the others grasped his perspective.

However, Shao Xiaozhi remained unconvinced.

To her, the first branch of the family had initially let them down and owed them.

What difference would it make to cause a stir?

Even if they did, their frustration would remain unresolved!

As for the benefits, they were owed to them!

Shao Liulang sighed inwardly.

Clearly, this tactic worked on them.

Why had he wasted so much effort explaining before?

With a cold demeanor, Shao Liulang retreated to his room, sneering at their compliance.

They were quick to heed him now, weren’t they?

That night, Shao Liulang visited the first section of the family.

Each time he ventured there, the opulence of the first branch irked him, but he had grown accustomed to masking his emotions.

First, he offered apologies on behalf of his parents.

Then, he adopted a diplomatic approach.

Given their close familial ties, wasn’t it understandable for his parents and Xiaozhi to feel hurt and resentful, especially since Taotao was the one who had initially disclosed the matter to Xiaozhi but failed to follow through?

While it might have been acceptable for an unrelated family, within their own kin, such actions emotionally wounded their family, leaving their parents and sisters feeling betrayed.

This was the crux of their frustration.

This ambiguity led to chaos.

The first branch of the family was technically justified, yet morally questionable.

Left unresolved, the situation would likely cast Taotao and the eldest branch in a negative light, branding them as domineering and oppressive.
