231 Wrap Up The Matter
Fifth Grandpa Ding glared at Fifth Grandma Ding too. It was his wife who was too prejudiced, and had been treating the second section of the family badly. The second section of the family were too obedient to say anything, and he never took their attitudes as important. But Ding Xiang, the damned girl bore the grudge in heart.
This damned girl behaved openly like this and his second son and his wife might have held the same grudge too.
They had made the whole family into a joke in front of the village!
Fifth Grandpa Ding was very unhappy about Fifth Grandma Ding, and was also upset about the second section of the family.
Why could they not point out their grudge privately rather than make a scene here? Did the second section of the family think that it was a good thing to be the joke of the village?
Fifth Grandpa Ding decided to wrap up the matter properly.
He had to do so!
Otherwise the rumor would only get bigger!
His grandchildren were getting older every single day, and they should get married when it was time. His family could not be humiliated at this juncture!
“Just stop it!” Fifth Grandpa Ding glanced at Fifth Grandma Ding and his children as he looked at Ding Erzhu. “Erzhu, just tell everyone if your parents have treated you badly?”
Frightened, Ding Erzhu shook his head subconsciously. “No, of course not…”
Fifth Grandpa Ding snorted. “Have you ever thought about leaving the family?”
“No, I never think about this! My parents are so good… how can I leave you!”
“You really never thought about this?”
“Never, Dad!”
“Good. I knew that I would never have raised an evil son!” Fifth Grandpa Ding calmed himself down and turned to Ding Xiang. “Girl, are you jinxed that you have spoken such impolite words? Just say sorry to your grandma, and we will drop the matter! After all, you are simply being impulsive at this moment, but we can forget about it!”
Fifth Grandma Ding glared at Ding Xiang and sneered. “Are you confused as to have said something like that?”
With a swollen face, Ding Xiang looked at Fifth Grandpa Ding with widened eyes. “Grandpa, why can’t we live separately? We can still treat you well when we live separately! I don’t want my parents to live a tired life. Moreover, neither of the uncles ever work well! Why can’t we just live separately, why not? Many people in our village live separately!”
“Just shut up! They live separately for some reason, but many are living together! You should get out of our family if you want to live separately. I will see if you can survive!”
Fifth Grandpa Ding’s face sank. “Girl, you are definitely jinxed! You are talking nonsense! You were not like this before.! How can you speak with me in such an impolite way? You are not being polite towards us!”
Ding Xiang said, “What I want is just to live separately!”
Fifth Grandma Ding sneered. “Why should we listen to you? You are nothing!”
“I am nothing, then you can separate us!”
“You!”
“Shut up!” Fifth Grandpa Ding snapped as he said with a sunk face. “Girl, if you are jinxed, I will let you stay in the ancestral hall for a couple of days, and the gods will drive away the evil air on you.”
It was a naked threat.
The ancestral hall was damp and dark, where the ancestral tablets were placed. People could feel cold and dank air in that place. It was always dark even in the daytime, let alone deep at night.
