Chapter 1347: Chapter 1347: Rage from Embarrassment (1)

Everyone was startled, and those who could not escape in time got splattered with soup, but because the other party was their elder, they dared not speak out in anger.

Yang Ruxin shielded Dong Wenxiu and moved away, avoided being splashed, but her expression darkened, “I was polite to you before because you are an elder, but you really are disrespectful.” She glanced around, “The Medicine Pill is mine, I can give it to whomever I want. If any of you have objections, keep them to yourselves.”

The people around felt a chill down their spines.

“You… I am your elder… you are being unfilial, you…”

“When you called my mother a widow who deserved to be drowned just now, why didn’t you remember that you are my elder?” Yang Ruxin sneered sarcastically, “Although I come from the countryside, we country people are honest, not stupid. You want to drown my mother, and I should still dutifully give the Medicine Pill to you? I’m not crazy… As for being filial, have I eaten a single grain of rice from you or drunk a drop of water from your house? You haven’t done anything for me, so why should I respect you? Protecting my mother is the greatest act of filial piety…”

“Uncle, since you are an elder, why keep picking on someone younger?” Dong Wenchao smiled as he spoke, “It’s a blessing from the heavens that Xiuxiu is able to come home, we should all be happy, right…”

“Get lost.” Dong Yun had no reservations towards Dong Wenchao, and before he could finish speaking, he shouted, “It’s not your place to meddle and lecture me…”

Dong Wenchao furrowed his brow, wanting to say more, but a middle-aged man stood up, “Uncle, you have gone too far. Today was meant to be a ceremony for Wenxiu led by our eldest cousin. You have been relentless. Isn’t it because Wenxiu didn’t get adopted into your son Dong Jian’s family that you’re infuriated?”

Yang Ruxin looked at him. Although he appeared quite young, since he addressed Dong Yun as uncle, he must be from the same generation as her grandfather. The old Mrs. Huang had introduced him before as Dong Xiang, the youngest son of the absent Dong Fang, only five years older than his grandnephew, Dong Wenchao.

“You are insolent…” Dong Yun was truly enraged, pointing at Dong Xiang with a trembling hand, “Is it just because she gave a few Medicine Pills to you? What, she bought you over with that?”

“Isn’t uncle also envious?” Dong Wenchao muttered softly.

“You…”

“Elder cousin, how can you say that? This girl is disrespectful to her elders. What about the rules of the Dong Family?” Dong Wenjiang couldn’t hold back any longer.

“What rules of the Dong Family? Go on, tell me about them,” Dong Wenchao scoffed, “The ancestral teachings of the Dong Family are supposed to encourage the younger generation to work hard, stay united, and keep watch. Have you achieved that?”

“But in any situation, it’s still our Dong Family’s matter, what’s it to her with the surname Yang?”

Yang Ruxin immediately shot him a cold look, “Who do you think you are? What’s wrong with my surname being Yang? I have taken good care of my mother with the surname Dong; what about you? You are surnamed Dong but what have you done for the Dong Family?” She narrowed her eyes slightly, “These years you have been nothing but arrogant and useless. You’re so old yet still depend on your household, embarrassing elderly people by making them show their faces in public, even considering selling your young son for money. Don’t you know the shame?”
