Gu Mingqiu was indignant, but seeing how angry she was becoming, he didn't dare argue. He silently pulled his hand back.
"Look at you! You're always like this—not a lick of skill to your name, only knowing how to throw your weight around with your own wife and son.

When the Eldest and his cronies accused him of theft, not only did you refuse to stand by him, you even had people search him! And with their so-called 'irrefutable evidence,' after the Third and Fourth Brothers fanned the flames with just a few words, you were the one who threatened to expel him. And now you still expect him to inherit the old master's estate?" The more Mrs. Dai spoke, the angrier she became, and tears streamed down her face.
