Rebirth in the 90s: Her Counterattack and Redemption

Chapter 1358: Chapter 808: Resolution (Part 1)_2

It’s quite a coincidence, a group of younger folks had just reached the corner of the corridor when they saw Aunt Luo pulling Qian Xiaotian out of the elevator. Luo Ye’s face turned sullen instantly. Didn’t dad say they wouldn’t dare to come again? Why are they here?

Grandpa hasn’t fully recovered, how can he bear their agitation?

“Ye’er, we came to see you, not grandpa, and we didn’t plan to disturb him.” Aunt Luo also saw Luo Ye and, unlike before, didn’t put on the airs of an elder. Instead, she smiled fawningly as she explained to Luo Ye.

“What’s going on?” Luo Ye asked, half-knowing the answer.

“Ye’er, Aunt knows she was wrong, don’t drive Aunt out of the farm, okay?” Aunt Luo yanked her daughter forward. “I specifically brought Xiaotian to apologize. Although this girl is an older sister, she’s just too immature for her age. Ye’er, don’t stoop to her level,” she murmured, giving Qian Xiaotian a discreet pinch.

“Ah… Ye’er, it was all my fault before. You, as the bigger person, shouldn’t bear a grudge against the likes of me. I’ve come to understand that people shouldn’t be compared.

Ye’er has reached today’s achievements not only because of uncle and aunt, but because she’s worked hard enough. I’ve figured it all out and will never foolishly resent or blame again.

Ye’er, I want to make amends by working as a free housekeeper at the villa. Please give me a chance, okay?” Qian Xiaotian looked at Luo Ye expectantly, with a pitiful expression.

Luo Ye looked at the mother and daughter for a while, then the corner of her lips curled up: “Aunt, cousin, my dad has said what needs to be said, and I’ve done what needs to be done.

As for your request, I’m afraid I can’t agree. You know, keeping one’s word is very important; how can one go back on their word?”

“Ye’er, Aunt is your real aunt. In battles, father and son fight together, and siblings hunt tigers together. We are blood relatives, our bones are linked together. If Aunt’s family isn’t doing well, wouldn’t others also laugh at Aunt?

Give Aunt a chance, I assure you Aunt will do well. If Aunt messes up again, then Ye’er can decide what to do, and Aunt will have no complaints.”

“Me too,” Qian Xiaotian quickly chimed in.

The mother and daughter had no other option. After being reprimanded by Luo Zhenggang, they pondered over it and returned to the village. On the third day, the head of the farm announced that Aunt Luo’s family didn’t need to work at the farm anymore. As for the shares, Chairman Luo had already reclaimed them, and the money was returned to them.

When they were allowed to join as shareholders, Luo Ye made a special note in the contract that the farm could unilaterally reclaim Aunt Luo’s shares. They did argue back then, but Luo Ye held firm, and Aunt Luo, not wanting to lose the chance of investing, finally agreed and signed the agreement. Now it turns out to be convenient for action.

Their meager shares, when converted to cash, couldn’t even start a small-scale farm without difficulty. Moreover, the farm’s livestock and poultry were directly supplied to Liangyou, with no worries about sales. How could they have such conditions if they started a small farm on their own?

The key is, the farm’s investment in sanitation and facilities was quite high. If they were to build on their own, they wouldn’t have that much capital to invest. Less investment would directly impact the risk of poultry and livestock epidemics—if that happened, losing everything would be normal.

Working so hard to save up, they couldn’t afford to throw it all away.

Moreover, if the word got out that Aunt Luo’s family was kicked out of the farm, the looks they’d receive… just thinking about it made the mother and daughter shudder. After weighing their options, they steeled themselves to ask Luo Ye for help.

If they don’t ask now and wait for Luo Ye to return to Sha City, they would be even more helpless.

Also, for them to go and complain to Old Master Luo again, even if they were brave, they wouldn’t dare to go. They weren’t clueless about the current state of the old man, so how could they risk provoking him?

Of course, the purpose of suggesting that Qian Xiaotian work as a free housekeeper was self-evident. They didn’t expect it to succeed, but it didn’t cost anything to try their luck. Naturally, they had to give it a try.

“Anyone can say things with an open mouth, but I know what’s on your minds right now. But…” After pausing for a moment, Luo Ye firmly said, “No.”

Seeing Aunt Luo’s face change, Luo Feng quickly stepped forward: “Aunt, don’t make things difficult for Ye’er. If you’re really thinking of giving yourself a chance, show us through your actions. If Ye’er approves, she will help without you even asking.”

“Won’t help?” Aunt Luo looked at the group with disappointment. “Compared to you all, Xiaotian doesn’t even compare. But even children from ordinary families hope for happiness. Is that too much to ask?

Ye’er and Feng’er, if you couldn’t help, Aunt would never blame you. But since you’re capable, why can’t you lend a hand?

If someone makes a mistake once, should they be sentenced to death? I was wrong about Grandpa’s things, and about thinking Zhenggang owed us.

But people make wrong turns, don’t they deserve a chance to correct them? You rich young masters and misses might never understand how difficult it is for ordinary folks like us to climb higher.

It’s precisely because it’s difficult that we might resort to unscrupulous means. After all, once you climb up, you’re admired by others. Nobody dislikes that feeling—I believe you all are no exception!”

Indeed, human nature is hard to change. Even after self-hypnotizing at home for so long, when facing reality, they still couldn’t control their emotions.
