Let me see which unlucky person is here to tell fortunes today

Chapter 292 Not in vain

Gao Yongfeng also sat on the sofa, covering his face in pain.

"If I had told my father earlier that I didn't want a funeral shop, Yongfen would have done this. It's all my fault, all my fault!"

Looking at the small house, I could see that my biological parents had prepared a room for me.

The bed sheets and pillowcases in the room were spotless, showing that the room was cleaned regularly.

Xun Mao clenched his fists and said, "I don't care how helpless Gao Yongfen was at the beginning, I will seek justice from her!"

On that day, Gao Yongfeng drove a group of people hurriedly back to his hometown.

The originally small town has now changed a lot. It happened to be the Qingming Festival, and there were a lot of outsiders coming here. Everyone of them was holding a lot of things to burn for their relatives.

What's even more exaggerated is that they found a truck to transport a paper house about one story high, which looked spectacular.

Gao Yongfeng did not take Xun Mao directly to find Gao Yongfen, but went straight to the ancestral tomb.

Eighteen years had passed and the two old people had already passed away. Before they died, they all wanted to see Xun Mao again, but because they were afraid that he would lose his life, they just took this regret into the grave.

But when the group arrived at the ancestral grave, they saw Gao Yongfen squatting in front of the tombstone and burning paper.

When Gao Yongfen heard the footsteps, she turned around and saw Xun Mao, Xun Kant and Xu Rong. Her pupils suddenly shrank, but soon the shock subsided.

She turned back and continued to burn paper, but said lightly: "It seems that you know it!"

Gao Yongfeng wanted to step forward, but was stopped by Chen Lan, who was afraid that he would do something extreme out of excitement.

"Gao Yongfen, Maomao is your nephew, how could you do such a thing?"

Gao Yongfen didn't say anything.

Seeing her attitude, Chen Lan also became angry: "Gao Yongfen, please say something. Why did you do such a thing in the first place?"

After burning the last piece of yellow paper in her hand, Gao Yongfen stood up and brushed off the ashes on her body.

"What is there to say? Didn't you all see it?"

"For the family property and the family shop!"

This was the first time Gao Yongfeng heard such cold words from his beloved sister. He asked loudly: "If you want these, you can just tell me!"

"From childhood to adulthood, what have you ever wanted that I didn't give you?"

"You know very well that I have no talent for running a store. Even if I inherit the store, I will still leave it to you to manage!"

"Once mom and dad are gone, this store will still be yours!"

"But why did you touch my son? We have been separated for 18 years in vain!"

"Fortunately, Mr. Xun and Ms. Xu are both good people. If I had trusted the wrong people, do you know what would have happened to Maomao now?"

"If Maomao hadn't gone to ask someone to tell our fortune, your sister-in-law and I would have never seen our biological son until we died!"

"Gao Yongfen, is this how you treat your brother?"

"Just for money? For fairness?"

"You destroyed my home!"

There was a hint of something strange in Gao Yongfen's eyes, but it was not visible on the surface.

At this time, Xun Mao, who had been silent, spoke up: "The fortune teller said that your idea of ​​pursuing fairness is not wrong, but you are using the wrong method."

"Before I went to bed last night, I kept thinking about what choice I would make if I were you at that time."

"Should we endure these old rules for the sake of family affection, or destroy the so-called family affection for the sake of fairness."

"But after thinking about it, I don't think this is a conflict."

"Because you can just follow my dad's example and open a shop outside!"

"The anchor said that grandpa has never treated you badly in terms of food and clothing. After seeing what you have made, grandpa also lamented why you are not a boy!"

"Instead of saying that my dad was weak and didn't dare to tell grandpa his true thoughts at the time, it's better to say that you, aunt, and my dad are actually the same kind of people!"

"Given our family's financial situation at the time, if you wanted to open a store somewhere else, even if you didn't use the Xun family's name, I believe Grandpa would agree."

"Too bad you didn't."

"This tragedy started with your unwillingness, and your cowardice only fueled it."

No matter how much Gao Yongfeng and Chen Lan said, Gao Yongfen would not say anything. She admitted it.

But Xun Mao's words broke Gao Yongfen's defense. She knelt down in front of the tombstone and said, "I have thought about what you said!"

"But at that time, my mind was completely filled with so-called fairness."

"Although I took over the family store, there is not a day that I don't regret it!"

"If I had thought of this solution at the time, I would never have used you to kick your dad out."

"But there is no regret medicine in this world, right?"

"These past few years, I've forced myself to think back to what I did every day to punish myself. I didn't get married or have children, just thinking about the day when I can find you and give you my shop and all my money!"

"This may atone my sins!"

"But how can I pay for my sins?"

"Because of my little trick, my brother and sister-in-law left home and rarely came home. My parents died of depression within a few years and they didn't even get to see their grandchildren before they died!"

"If it weren't for me, this family wouldn't have to suffer so much, but I'm useless. I don't even have the strength to admit my mistakes!"

Gao Yongfen's words did not move Xun Mao.

"Do you think you can wash away your sins by giving me the store you have worked so hard to run and the money you have earned over the years?"

"I can tell you clearly that I am just like my dad, I am also a clumsy person and I can't do those things at all!"

"I don't want a penny of your shop or money!"

"Likewise, I won't forgive you!"

"I want you to repent every day for the sins you have committed, and to suffer every day in the pain of being deserted by your friends and relatives and causing the death of your parents!"

After Xun Mao finished speaking, he placed the yellow and white chrysanthemums he had brought in front of the tombstone, then turned around and left, leaving Gao Yongfen who was standing there in a daze and crying silently.

On the way home, Xu Rong saw her son looking out the window, so she took out her cell phone and sent him a message.

"Son, it's fine if you don't want the store, but isn't it a pity not to want the money?"

Xun Mao knew that his mother was not greedy for money, but just wanted to tease him, so he replied: "That's a little bit, but it's not easy to regret it now!"

Xu Rong sent a grinning emoji: "Forget it, forget it. I still got a pair of parents. This trip is worth it!"

Xun Mao curled his lips and smiled: "Mom, thank you and Dad. If you hadn't supported me, I might still be hesitating about how to tell you this!"

Xun Kangde, who was dozing off on the other side of Xu Rong, curled up the corners of his lips slightly after seeing the message from his son on his wife's phone.

This son was not raised in vain!
