Chu Tao was indeed a civil servant. His art of speech was almost as good as Chu Ning’s. It looked like he said a bunch of beautiful words, but in fact, he was giving Chu Ning and Chu Yuan a way out.

Chu Yuan also touched his nose awkwardly. He was also a little puzzled.

“Yes, yes, yes. Brother, don’t mind it. Xiao Ning is a straightforward child. She says whatever she wants. Don’t lower yourself to her level.”

Father Chu quickly spoke up. He did not want the atmosphere to remain awkward.

Chu Mei crossed her arms in front of her chest as well, looking like she was watching a good show. As for Chu Huan and Chu Jing… Chu Jing was a little better. Chu Huan’s lips curled up slightly as he bit his lips. He was trying his best to hold back his laughter, if it wasn’t inappropriate, he would have clapped and cheered.

It was the first time in so many years that he had seen his uncle Chu Yuan get rebutted!

In the past, his family had always been humble, but this time, Chu Ning directly rebuked him until he was speechless.

“Ha, why would I lower myself to the level of a little girl? Young people are still in school and don’t know the dangers of society and the ways of the world. Sigh, it’s normal for her to say wrong things. When she enters society and starts earning money by herself, she will know how wonderful her current life is. It’s all because of us elders.”

In order to save face for himself, Chu Yuan started to change the topic, but coincidentally, he targeted Chu Ning again.

Chu Ning already had a bad impression of him. Just now, Chu Tao gave him a way out, but not only did he not go along with it, he even took the opportunity to diss her.

Then don’t blame her, Chu Ning, for going all out!

“Oh? I’m still in school and don’t know the ways of the world. Do you mean that you understand it very well? And how did you know that I don’t have the ability to make money? You weren’t involved in my path of growth.”

Chu Ning said bluntly.

It didn’t matter even if her relationship with these relatives worsened from today onwards.

In the foreseeable future, these relatives would turn around and beg the Chu family sooner or later. It would save them a lot of trouble in the future if they made things clear now.

Chu Jing looked at the aggressive Chu Ning and sighed helplessly.

Seeing Chu Ning’s temper, he realized that Chu Ning was restraining herself when she was at home with them.

“You! This… Second brother, your daughter really has a way with words! I hope that her ability in the future can match her eloquence!”

Chu Yuan was completely defeated. He finally understood that it was impossible for him to beat Chu Ning.

“Uh… Xiao Ning, stop. After all, your uncle…”

Father Chu was about to act as a mediator between the two of them, but he was interrupted by Chu Ning once again.

“I feel that my ability far exceeds my eloquence. Of course, I’m not just speaking in words. Uncle, I know that what I said might be harsh and unpleasant, but respect between people is mutual. Also, thank you for taking care of our family and seventh brother all these years. After you go home, please calculate the total amount of money you have spent on helping our family all these years. After that, tell my parents and I’ll transfer it to you right away.”

After Chu Ning finished her words, the entire room fell silent.

Chu Yuan opened his mouth wide and looked at Chu Ning in a daze. Chu Tao and Chu Mei were also surprised. They really didn’t understand why Chu Ning had the confidence to say such a thing.

This wasn’t something that could be said lightly. It required a large amount of real money to prove!

Father and mother Chu, including Chu Huan, all felt that there was something wrong with Chu Ning today. At the same time, they had also seen the other side of Chu Ning, the strong side.

Only Chu Jing knew what was going on. Moreover, he firmly believed that since Chu Ning dared to say such words, she must have the confidence to do so!

The meal was very silent, and the atmosphere was very awkward. Apart from Chu Ning’s third uncle, Chu Tao, who would occasionally laugh and chat with his family, the other two were mute throughout the entire meal. They were just silently picking up food and eating.

This dinner also went against Father Chu’s original intention. His original intention was to ease the relationship between relatives, but now, with Chu Ning’s words, the relationship became stiff.

And Chu Ning had just come to this family not long ago. Father and mother Chu still felt that they owed her something, so naturally, they would not criticize Chu Ning in front of so many people.

But what her parents did not know was that giving in repeatedly would not win the respect of others. Only one’s own strength was the most important!
