Chapter 162: Grandma Jian Reprimands the Family (2)
Granma Jian continued to let her anger out.
The three that were being scolded didn’t have a single word that they could say. They couldn’t defend their actions.
Grandma Jian continued to speak in exasperation, “I understand your dilemma. Both of them are your children. I know that Yunnao was badly injured. And typically, compared to Yiling, he’s more understanding and sensible. As a result, all of you decided to believe in Yunnao. However, have you guys never considered that there might be a third possibility? What if both of them weren’t wrong!? Isn’t that the situation right now? What were you guys doing earlier? Are you stupid?”
The probability of the third possibility was quite low. However, it wasn’t impossible!
And now, as it turns out, the third possibility did happen! And it happened to them!
Grandma Jian didn’t want to blame the three of them for choosing to trust Jian Yunnao. He was their son. And he was also her grandson. He was a child that was trustworthy.
However, Grandma Jian was upset with the fact that Jian Yiling didn’t get the trust that she deserved.
At the same time, Grandma Jian was also angry with herself. She was angry that back then, she didn’t persist with her point of view.
At this point, Grandma Jian couldn’t help but say: “If I was 20 years younger, I’d kick all of you out of the company! You’re all incredibly stupid. With your intelligence, I feel as though the company will become insolvent before I pass away.”
Grandma Jian had lost her temper. No one dared to say another word.
In the end, Grandpa Jian opened his mouth. He tried to calm things down. “Okay, okay. Old Lady, take a break. You’re also quite old. There’s no need to be this angry. I’m also at fault. I didn’t ask someone to carefully investigate this manner.”
Grandpa Jian had contacted the Jian family to come over that day. Once he heard Jian Yiling say that she was at fault, he wanted to just let the matter die down. He wanted to turn big matters into smaller matters, and for those smaller matters to just disappear eventually.
As he was quite old, he lost the energy that he once had. He thought that it would be good if his family could live in peace and harmony. He didn’t want to make a fuss about the matters.
However, he didn’t expect that this matter would turn out like this. He didn’t expect that his only granddaughter would have to suffer like this.
Grandpa Jian also felt quite upset. Although it didn’t show on the surface, he also felt quite guilty and ashamed of himself.
In the end, he had pampered her. However, he hadn’t been able to firmly believe in her as Grandma Jian had. He hadn’t been able to believe that she wasn’t bad at heart.
He didn’t realize that no matter what happened, she wouldn’t pass that moral line.
“Mother, Father, it’s my fault. I didn’t handle the situation well. I also didn’t investigate the matter thoroughly.”
Jian Shuxing regretted his decisions and choices. However, regret was useless.
After something happened, nothing could change it again.
Jian Shuxing, Jian Yuncheng, and Wen Nuan could only stay in that sadness and regret.
Grandma Jian sighed before speaking again. Her tone had eased up quite a bit, “Alright, I know that this is a situation that you didn’t expect. It’s not easy for you guys to handle this matter. Even if I beat the three of you up, it won’t make things better. What we need to do right now is to handle the rest of the matter properly. As to forgiveness, that’s not up to me to say. It’s up to Yiling.”
The days still had to go by. They were part of the same family. Grandma Jian didn’t want her son, daughter-in-law, and grandson to wallow away in misery.
“Mother, I know,” Jian Shuxing replied. He hung his head and accepted Grandma Jian’s criticism.
