Chapter 502: Chapter 501: The East Wind Also Arrives

Xi Shu’s eyes reddened as she continued speaking,

"The so-called ’poisonous insect-feeding plan’ simply involved using money to spoil the family until they were useless."

"Like gambling, drinking, being lazy and not working, no problem, I provided money."

"If they want to borrow money claiming they were sick to subsidize parents and brothers, no issue, I also gave them money."

Her eyes filled with hate, "When every one of them becomes a waste without the ability to fend for themselves, I will make my move."

"Cut off their source of income, make them incapable of doing anything, even struggling to find food."

"Just the same for our parents, none of us five sisters will spend another penny on them, letting them see if the relatives they value will take care of them."

"Build two houses, let them live comfortably for a while, after I cut off their financial source later, by then there will be a gambler, a drunkard, a lecher, and a bunch of lazy people in the family, let’s see how they live."

"All they can do is mortgage the houses and sell the land."

"In the end, it’s dog eat dog, we don’t need to do much else, and the family will fall apart."

"Since my parents are so close and love this top-grade family, they can be their lifelong old oxen and slaves, we sisters won’t accompany them anymore, we’ll just watch them reap what they sowed."

She took a deep breath, "The poisonous insect-feeding plan was almost complete, one of my cousins recently gambled a lot of money and even took out high-interest loans."

"Another cousin caused trouble while drinking and even hurt someone in the county that they couldn’t afford to offend."

"The sick cousin has been having affairs with several wives in the village, including one from a very fierce family, once it is exposed, he will not have an easy time."

"My third uncle went into a business partnership, in reality, he was scammed, it just hasn’t come to light yet, when it does it’ll be too late to salvage anything."

"Everything is moving according to our plan."

She laughed mockingly, "But I didn’t expect they would be so ruthless to deceive my younger sister here, and trick me into coming back from the Imperial Capital, just to exchange fate for my cousin."

"However, this works out well, we have even less guilt now, after all, we are just spoon-feeding them, spending money to support their laziness, making their mentality and actions more and more inflated."

"In the end, all the bad consequences they face are their own doing."

After finishing her speech, she looked up directly at Huo Rui, "Do you think I’m bad? But I have no regrets."

Before Huo Rui could respond, Wuniu looked at him anxiously.

"My fourth sister did all this for us sisters, and it was a plan we sisters had discussed."

"If my fourth sister hadn’t sent money back and stopped it, my third sister would have married a nearly forty-year-old man who abuses, and I would have been married off to an old widower."

"Those people simply didn’t allow my fourth sister to take us to the Imperial Capital, they used us as leverage to force her to send money, otherwise, she would have ignored that family a long time ago."

Having said that, her eyes filled with tears, but she held them back from falling.

She had heard from her fourth sister before about having a boyfriend in the Imperial Capital, she could see that the brother-in-law was very outstanding and good to her fourth sister, otherwise, he would not have come to such a remote area.

So she feared the brother-in-law might feel distanced from her fourth sister, which is why she hurried to explain.

Her fourth sister had already suffered enough; she truly didn’t want to see her fourth sister lose someone she cherished again.

Huo Rui gripped Xi Shu’s hand tightly, then pulled her into his arms and held her.

"I don’t think you’re bad, I think you’re very good."

"From now on, you won’t have to deal with these things anymore, I’ll take care of it."

Today’s experience, coupled with what Xi Shu said, made Huo Rui feel very sympathetic towards her.

He hadn’t realized she had to endure so many tribulations at home, but it was precisely because of this, her resilience and self-reliance were appealing.

Since childhood, Xi Shu had been accustomed to shouldering everything herself and had played the caretaker role among her sisters.

This was the first time someone told her, you don’t have to handle anything, I will do it.

She took the opportunity to embrace Huo Rui, crying softly in his arms.

Luo Ning saw the two of them like this and a smile appeared in her eyes.

Upon reaching the county, Huo Rui’s assistant had already arranged a hotel.

The next morning, they all went downstairs for breakfast together.

Xi Shu asked Luo Ning, "Will the people who were taken away be released?"

Luo Ning replied, "Except for your aunt’s children, the rest are suspected of crimes and can be kept in custody."

"Your cousin and your aunt killed someone a year ago. They are probably going to spend the rest of their lives in jail."

"Although your grandmother and your uncle are suspected of attempted murder, they didn’t succeed, so they won’t be detained forever. They can be educated for a while before being released, or they could be sentenced to a few years."

Xi Shu thought for a moment and asked, "Can the old lady just be detained briefly before being released?"

Luo Ning knew that Xi Shu wasn’t feeling pity for the old lady. "What are you thinking?"

Xi Shu said with a smile, "If the old lady isn’t there, who will keep my parents working like old oxes?"

"That family can’t break up; they need to torment each other. They should bear the burden of the gambling debt and the compensation for the assault together."

"So I think it’s better for the old lady to go back home."

Without the old lady causing trouble, the several households would soon divide, and they might even sell the newly repaired house.

Xi Shu didn’t want to see that.

She wanted to see that family entangled without splitting up, blaming and resenting each other in the future, and more importantly, not leaving the village to harm anyone else.

Luo Ning understood her immediately. "No problem. I’ll speak to the special department and have the old lady released after ten days to half a month."

Considering the precarious nature of last night’s events, and since Xi Shu was still alive and well, though there was a video, it was still hard to determine a legal threshold for crime.

Having the old lady educated for half a month before release was within the normal range of operations.

Xi Shu said with a smile, "I’ve troubled you again."

Luo Ning asked, "Do you and your sisters want to go home or go straight back to the Imperial Capital?"

Xi Shu replied, "We’ll go home first."

"Send me a copy of the video you recorded last night."

"We were still thinking of a reason to break from them, and this video will do just fine."

"When they surely ask me to plead for the old lady’s release, I can use this to make them write the breakup letter with us sisters."

"The ’raising poisonous insects’ plan can also end."

Everything was prepared; all that was needed was an opportunity, and now the opportunity had arrived.

Once they break from them, and the old lady goes back home, then the gambling debts and high-interest loans can be revealed.

Luo Ning chuckled, "I’ll send it to you in a bit, and we’ll wait for you to finish and go back to the Imperial Capital together."

"Oh, and after you’ve broken from them, you can introduce Mr. Huo as your boyfriend to them." She gave a mischievous smile.

Having such a potential gold mine and not being able to mine it, those people would probably turn green with regret.

The best revenge is to make the other party regret it for a lifetime, or always be stuck in regret. Xi Shu’s ’raising poisonous insects’ plan would surely succeed.

Huo Rui was a smart man and naturally understood their implication.

He said with a smile, "I would be very happy to visit your home again."

Xi Shu’s eyes were no longer tinged with the slightest worry, and she flashed a cheerful smile at him and Luo Ning, "I think that’s a great idea!"

With this break from the past and the help from Huo Rui and Luo Ning, she would be able to take her sisters away. How wonderful!
