Chapter 20: Anger
Everyone on the road felt that this period was the tranquility before the storm, and there had been great changes in the circle in the past few months, no one knew what new situations would appear tomorrow, and each family became cautious, and at the same time, the foreign family also regretted why they wanted to interfere in the affairs of the northwest region for a while, the calmer the early stage, the more terrifying the power that erupted later, and the Chen family, which was pulling the fuse, seemed to have no consciousness at all......
The Chen family is building four streets very vigorously on the surface, but in fact, there is already some chaos inside:
As a well-known veteran family in the region, the Chen family would never admit defeat in terms of financial resources, but this time, they found themselves wrong - the construction of the four streets, even if the houses do not need them to worry about at all, can repair road fees, management fees, greening, water and electricity, mediation...... A series of bills almost collapsed all the liquid capital chains of the Chen family, and Chen Dong was anxiously walking back and forth in the hall at this time.

"Big brother, we don't have much money to start, and the construction of this street is less than halfway through, this ......"
"......" Chen Liao quietly looked at his younger brother's anxious face, but couldn't say anything.
What can he say? All this, since everyone was released on bail, is it a bureau of Chu Shiyu? No, maybe not then, but earlier...... The four leaders of the Chu family, the dead died, the handed over, and the old housekeeper didn't know where he was missing, Chu Shiyu, from the beginning of his appearance, quickly gathered the power of the Chu family, eradicated dissidents, and the speed and means were far from being comparable to any head of the Chen family.
This time the funding problem, Chu Shiyu had expected it a long time ago before he would give full authority to the Chen family...... According to anyone's estimate, just management construction will not cost such a large price, but who would have thought that it is to help managers build, but all taxes are indispensable? Chu Shiyu's hand is really powerful.
"Now those families who promised to pay money don't say a word about it, delay it for a day, the consumption of the construction site is a large amount, and we can't afford to drag it out" The third Chen Nan has always been calm, and all the expenses this time are managed by him, and no one knows better than him the terrible numbers that the Chen family flows out every day, "It's really not good, just ask Shiyu to help." ā
"Him?" Chen Liao smiled bitterly, wasn't the current situation of the Chen family caused by him? But he can't say it, once he says it, the last "ally" of the Chen family will also be pushed out by his younger brothers, and when the time comes, the situation of the Chen family will be no different from the original Chu family.
"Now, he's the only one who won't fall into the ground."
Chen Nan glanced at Chen Liao strangely, just because he was too worried about the problem of funds, and he didn't think too much, during this time, he also saw the attitude of all the family heads, obviously picking on the thorns of the Chen family, for these people, he has always disdained.
"Cut, I was troubled by that dead girl, where did I get the face to find someone else?" The fifth Chen Bei sat on the sofa with a gloomy and terrifying expression, and the other four people had stiff expressions, all looking annoyed.
Yes, during this time, it was said that the Chen family was ungrateful, and they grabbed the management power and threw Chu Shiyu aside, but only they knew it, they didn't know how to face each other at all, what Chen Yuanyuan said was spread all over the road, and it was impossible for Chu Shiyu not to know, even if he had made a lot of preparations in advance, who knew that the words would be so ugly?
"It's me who didn't teach ...... well" Chen Dong lowered his head in shame, obviously things would not develop to this extent, but because of Chen Yuanyuan's words, the current situation of the Chen family is really not optimistic, and he sometimes even wonders if Chu Shiyu has this deep sense of powerlessness when he took over the scarred Chu family......
"Now, we can only remedy it."
"Remedy?" Glancing at Chen Bei strangely, Chen Dong didn't understand what this little brother was talking about.
"Chen Yuanyuan said such a thing, the second brother wouldn't still think that someone on the road was willing to marry her, right?"
"......" Chen Dong couldn't refute it, he knew that no matter what his identity was, no one would be willing to marry a woman who couldn't do anything about himself, and sooner or later he would get into big trouble.
"So, instead of letting Chu Shiyu have a dislike for the entire Chen family, it's better for us to do it ourselves."
"Old five?" Chen Liao looked at Chen Bei in surprise, his eyes widened, he couldn't believe it, when did the most arrogant and domineering and the most heartless little brother start to become so ruthless.
"Chen family, wasn't that the case from the beginning?"
Chen Bei turned his head to look at the four elder brothers, he was the youngest of the five, only in his forties, he had always been protected by the four elder brothers and had never bothered much, his appearance was almost as charming as the male stars in his early thirties in film and television dramas, standing in front of the window, the snowflakes flying outside the window were so bright that the four of them could only see his perfect outline, cold without a trace of temperature.
"Father, eldest brother, Xiaoye, all of us, aren't we all tools of the family? The tool that paves the way for a longer-term future, Chen Yuanyuan, has lost its utility. ā
āā¦ā¦ā
Tool...... Yes, this is the ancestral motto of the Chen family, for the sake of the family, anyone can be sacrificed, and the last drop of blood must be shed, and the distorted and crazy values have been implemented to this day.
"Since it's useless, just throw it away."
"......, I know, I will notify all the members of the family and remove Chen Yuanyuan tomorrow."
Chen Dong said that it was difficult, after all, it was his own daughter, even if he didn't love him like a son, he was emotionally invested, but he was the head of the family, and he couldn't finish the entire Chen family for a daughter.
Chen Liao was as silent as ever, he had always been like this, leaving everything to his younger brothers to complete, and only pointing out a path when they were confused, but today's silence was not satisfied with the decisions of his younger brothers, but ...... The heart is cold.
For the sake of the family, they use all the family members as tools, are they putting the cart before the horse, and the family shouldn't be the safest haven for the members......
Chu Shiyu, this time, maybe you are right, the Chen family, I'm afraid it's really not qualified to be compared with the Chu family, the Chu family, who can shelter the entire northwest under him from the beginning, how broad-minded is it, a junior who can't even tolerate the wrong thing, I'm afraid he will never be able to understand it.
Especially after the juniors in the family learned about this, not only did no one raise objections, but accepted it as a matter of course, and Chen Liao's heart sank to the bottom.
Outsiders say that everyone in the Chen family is tightly hugged into a group, but only he who is in the Chen family understands that they are not deeply affectionate at all, but have been used as a tool by the family since birth, numb, resigned to fate, and used to it, when a person can create enough benefits for the family, the family can protect him without hesitation, but once he loses his use value, he will only be completely abandoned.
"Even if it's hard to say, it's ...... to be expelled from the Chen family"
Chen Ye, who was angry at home the next day, heard the news before he could get angry, although he had always looked down on his sister, and wanted to sever the relationship between brother and sister in front of many people, but it was just a momentary anger, and the direct family of a big family was expelled from the family, what would happen to him as the heir.
"Does Xiaoye feel bad?" Chen Liao finally felt a little relieved, the Chen family, after all, still has affection.
"Uncle, isn't this too strict? Although Chen Yuanyuan said it was ugly, after all, marriage was originally what you and I wanted, and Chu Shiyu was not the kind of person who couldn't marry a wife and wouldn't get along with her as a little girl. ā
"Now it's not a question of whether Chu Shiyu is willing to go past with her, it's a matter of the Chu family's face."
Without waiting for Chen Liao to speak, Chen Dong had already spoken, yesterday, some families that were originally under construction actually stopped work, which means that the Chen family has to pay for another day, and the losses listed by the third child far exceed the limit that the Chen family can bear, and he can no longer take care of his already small family affection.
"Dad!!"
Everyone looked up, and standing on the stairs was Chen Yuanyuan, who was beaten to bed by Chen Ye a few days ago, she was wearing a silk red dress nightdress, and the skin was paler, in fact, if you look carefully, Chen Yuanyuan's appearance is more like the fifth child, and her eyebrows and eyes are curved to fortitude, but there is a strong beauty.
She looked at her father with a face full of incredulity, the man who said that he was going to push himself out and send him to death for the sake of the Chu family's face.
The unwritten rule on the road, two families with contradictions, one who wants to reconcile but can't say it clearly, will sacrifice some people to relieve the other's anger, that is, like Chen Yuanyuan, he was expelled from the family, and the fate of those who were sacrificed is naturally self-evident.
Later, some families were reluctant to be talked about, so it was the turn of some families who wanted to show their favor to do something, and now who doesn't know that the entire northwest family is in a hurry to befriend the Chu family, but there is no chance, and if Chen Yuanyuan is expelled, the consequences will make anyone shudder when they think of it.
"This is your own wrongdoing, and it shouldn't be borne by the family." Chen Dong had already adjusted his mood and would not have the slightest sympathy for Chen Yuanyuan.
"I'm your child, but you want me to die for an outsider?!"
In the silent hall, only Chen Yuanyuan was heard standing alone in a high place and roaring weakly, everyone was either indifferent or ashamed, but no one would stand up, Chen Ye lowered his head silently, he didn't know how to refute the other party's words.
But he understands that no matter what time it is, the interests of the family come first, and when necessary, even Chen Dong, the head of the family, will be sacrificed, not to mention Chen Yuanyuan, a girl who has no power.
"Today, in front of all the members, you were expelled from the family, from now on, you are no longer surnamed Chen, and I Chen Dong does not have your daughter."
In exchange, there was only Chen Dong's indifferent and ruthless voice, he no longer looked at the child he had raised for nineteen years in the high place, turned around and returned to the room, he was more concerned about whether this move could win back Chu Shiyu's favor.
Chen Yuanyuan's figure shook a little, holding on to the handrail of the stairs next to her, with a white face to prevent herself from falling, she was already injured by Chen Ye, and received a devastating blow, she felt that everything had turned black.
"Daddy......"
Chen Ye looked at his father's ruthless back, and he couldn't say what it was like in his heart, but he knew that he was more afraid:
If, one day, he loses his use value, and if he doesn't say the wrong thing like Chen Yuanyuan, he just can't stand up again like Chu Shiyu, will Chen Dong also give up mercilessly like today?
"You ...... These beasts are inferior to things! You don't want to die!! Come to a sticky end!!! ā
Tears flowed down her face, Chen Yuanyuan couldn't do anything except the curse of powerlessness, her hatred, no one would care, just like the person who was once abandoned by her family who was laughed at by herself, and now, she has fallen into the same situation as those people.
"Yuanyuan......" Chen Ye's expression was complicated, this was almost the first time he had called his sister's name properly, and I am afraid it would be the last time.
"I don't need your fake kindness! Chen Ye, half of the reason why I am to this point today is because of you! I will hate you for the rest of my life!! ā
Chen Yuanyuan turned around and went back, she was no longer the eldest lady of the Chen family, she should pack her luggage and get out immediately, if she waited until the Chen family took the initiative to drive people away, her situation would be even more humiliating, the boundless anger almost burned her, her eyes were red, and her hands were caught bloody, she firmly remembered the culprit who made her fall into this fate today:
Chen Dong, Chen Bei, Chen Ye, Chu Shiyu ......!
