“Enough, I’ll play the villain. I’ll just come straight out and tell you, we do not want to rent the tofu shop to you anymore. As for your things, you’d better pack up and move them out as soon as possible. Anything you can’t or won’t take away, we will convert into silver and pay you back,”

Zhuang Yutian was forthright in saying this to Zhuang Qingning.

“This matter…”

Zhuang Qingning paused, looking up at Zhuang Yutian, “It’s not up to you.”

Observing the surprised expression on Zhuang Yutian’s face, Zhuang Qingning calmly said:

“First of all, this tofu shop is not yours, and secondly, I didn’t rent it from you. So this decision is not up to you, Uncle Yutian. Neither can you drive me out of the tofu shop.”

“Qingning”. Zhuang Yutian had lost his patience by this point, his last trace of a smile disappearing. His expression hardened: “I understand that you and your sister have had a hard life since your parents passed away and why you want to make your own money,”

“But your hardship doesn’t entitle you to take advantage of our family’s property. And you’ve been cunning my mother all along.”

“I am a reasonable person. You’ve made a lot of money from the tofu shop. Now that you’ve made it, keep it. I won’t ask for it back. But from now on, you can’t deceive my mother anymore and use our property to fill up your own pockets.” “There’s no holding back in what I’ve just told you. If you willingly pack your things up and leave this tofu shop, I won’t demand you to return the money you made in the past and I’ll even give you the worth of the goods you leave behind. Our families can still live as peaceful neighbors.”

“But if you refuse to comply, I won’t consider the sentiment of our shared village or pity you for losing your parents. I will demand every single item you owe us!”

Zhuang Yutian is tall, and his voice is deep, so when he talks there’s a power in his voice that shakes the listeners.

Anybody else would have flinched at hearing these words and facing this intimidating presence but Zhuang Qingning remained calm as she looked at him.

“As I’ve said before, this matter is not for you to decide.”

“Aunt Wen is the one who rented me the tofu shop, and it’s hers. The decision to rent or not, should be up to Aunt Wen, and I will only deal with her,” said Zhuang Qingning coolly.

“In all honesty, neither of you have the right to discuss this matter.”

“Exactly,” added Zhuang Yonghe, “This matter should be handled by Aunt Wen herself. Even if it was her biological son involved, it wouldn’t make any difference.”

“You must not think because you’re adults, you can bully children. It is broad daylight and everyone can see your actions, don’t even think about bullying Qingning.”

Zhuang Yonghe was a rather straightforward person who wasn’t good with words, he didn’t know how to respond to Zhuang Yutian and Zhuang Yucheng’s intimidation, but he did remember one thing.
