Updated 10/08/2026 7 min read

10. Looking at the group of people being chased away by the security guards, their disheveled backs gradually disappeared. My father let out a rare sigh. I knew he was uncomfortable and wanted to comfort him, but my mother was quicker and gave father and son a cup of hot tea. “Drink to warm yourself up, I'm afraid it's not over yet.” My father didn't answer, just nodded and turned to go into the house. As for me, it's a bit difficult to understand. The black and white ink on the paper has already been signed so clearly, what's there to do anymore? But the truth proves that the older the ginger, the spicier it becomes. The next morning, as soon as I woke up, the outside of the villa was full of slogan banners. 【The Trieu family relies on the rich to bully people, is ungrateful, and bullies the villagers!】 The security guard tried to stop, but before she could touch Ly Phuc Phuong, Mrs. Liu fell to the ground and began to cry loudly: "Oh my god, rich people are bullying poor people!" This is the home of the rich, with many reporters and paparazzi following them all year round. Now that something like this has happened, reporters on Tet holiday will soon arrive in droves. Seeing more and more people, Ly Tinh Tinh became even more motivated. Last night, Vuong Lien fired Ly Tinh Tinh on the spot. Not only that, even the handbags he gave her were confiscated as evidence. This made Ly Tinh Tinh, who already felt that he had been deceived by the "pig" Vuong Lien, even more frustrated and uncomfortable. Thinking about the big villa where my family lives, a thought suddenly popped into her mind: The Trieu family is so rich, just a little bit of money would be enough for her to live comfortably. If my family really moves our ancestors' graves, I'm afraid she won't have the chance to meet such a wealthy person again in her entire life. Thinking of this, Ly Tinh Tinh pulled Ly Phuc Phuong along and knelt down in front of the group of reporters holding up cameras. “In the past, when Grandpa Trieu was still in the village, the money for him to go out and start a business was all contributed by his relatives.” "Unexpectedly, after his business became prosperous, not only did he not repay his homeland, but he also pretended to be poor and miserable every year, afraid that we would come to him and ask for help." After all, she still has some beauty, and now that she's crying and talking, it makes people feel even more pitiful. But people love to watch gossip, not to mention that this time it also involves a big name like Kien Nghiep Group. The reporters and cameramen all remained silent and let her continue, hoping to get some more "hot news". I stopped my father who was about to leave, turned around and called Vuong Lien. Didn't he say last night that he wanted me to give him a chance? Isn't the chance now here? Outside the gate, Mrs. Liu and Liu Ma Tu also joined the group and began to cry and talk about their suffering, saying that in the past, working for my grandfather did not receive any compensation, I also lost my ability to work, and how miserable my life has been these past few years. I glanced at my watch and saw that it was getting busier and busier outside. Vuong Lien finally arrived. As soon as he saw that scene, his face immediately darkened. Immediately afterwards, relying on his massive body, he rushed forward and snatched away the raised banner. Ly Phuc Phuong panicked and rushed out to stop him. But Ly Tinh Tinh pulled his shirt tightly, only waiting for Vuong Lien to finish tearing off all the banners before turning around and crying in front of the camera: "This is the general director of Kien Nghiep Group, he relies on his power to harass me!" "I just a young girl new to society, completely unexpected that this would become a tool for Trieu Yen Ky to profit from! With such a large pot of dirty water thrown down, Vuong Lien wished he could rush forward and kick her a few times to vent his anger. But through the fence of the villa area, seeing me shaking my head slightly, he could only grit his teeth, turn and bow to the camera: "Please don't be deceived by such insatiable greedy people." 11. Anyway, Vuong Lien still has some prestige. Compared to the Liu family crying and crying, the reporters wanted to hear the story from Vuong Lien's mouth even more. Seeing that many cameras had changed direction, Ly Tinh Tinh gritted her teeth. In the end, it was still Ly Phuc Phuong who gently reminded him: "Just let him talk, say whatever he wants. Before the road is finished, the Trieu family still owes us.” Only now did Ly Tinh Tinh calm down. That's right, no matter how much the Trieu family hates them, this project cannot be abandoned. Vuong Lien did not know what the Ly family was thinking. He glanced at them with contempt and then pulled out a stack of documents from his pocket. "The current project is 100% done by General Director Trieu himself, and has nothing to do with the group's books." “Not to mention whether they are ungrateful or not, just consider their behavior.” "As soon as I heard about the road construction, my first reaction was to dig up the graves of the Trieu family's ancestors, hoping to take over more land for profit." Chinese people have always attached great importance to ancestral graves. As soon as these words were uttered, even the reporters burst out in admiration. People have money, come back to build roads for the village, and even intend to dig up their ancestors' graves to make a profit. Whoever this happens to, I'm afraid it can't be ignored easily. “It's not like that! Not us! It's because the Trieu family didn't make it clear in advance that we misunderstood!” Seeing that Ly Tinh Tinh was still about to argue, Vuong Lien spat contemptuously and took out another file. "Previously, General Manager Trieu, using an anonymous name, built a library for the village, built a primary school, and even repaired the concrete road." "You people don't know how to appreciate the road. If you don't maintain it, stop it." “If you weren't planning on digging up their ancestors' graves, they would even be planning to build an asphalt road worth hundreds of millions for you.” “If a person like that is said to be ungrateful, I* am your ancestor.” The more Vuong Lien spoke, the more pale the Ly family's faces became. Especially when hearing about education funds. Ly Tinh Tinh couldn't stand anymore. Because she knows clearly that she was able to attend college, largely thanks to the scholarship fund that the Trieu family secretly sponsored. Seeing that the Ly father and son were speechless, Mrs. Liu and Liu Ma Tu also understood clearly. But they don't have a job and don't care about their reputation, so they just lie on the ground, rolling around and acting like they won't leave if they don't give money. I predicted this scene would happen, so as soon as Vuong Lien arrived, I called the police in advance. The police arrived very quickly, and as soon as the scene was sealed off, Ms. Liu immediately fell silent, not daring to scream any more. Only knowing how to secretly retreat with Ly Phuc Phuong. We absolutely cannot reveal the matter of Truong Dang village. My grandfather in the past was a clear lesson. At that time, he took the initiative to come out and explain everything clearly, but in the end he was punished by more than a dozen people factory destroyer. That price, the Trieu family will never pay a second time. When dealing with scoundrels, sometimes using someone like Vuong Lien is much more effective. Even so, his story cannot be ignored. As for his work, the group will conduct a re-inspection after Tet, the conclusion will have to wait. Anyway, we also have to carefully review the relationship between him and Ly Tinh Tinh. 12. Perhaps because there were too many scandals during the Tet holiday, news related to Kien Nghiep Group only surfaced a little and then disappeared. Waiting for Tet to pass, my father had already completed the auspicious days and months. The day we moved our ancestors' graves, we returned. Only this time, it's different than last time. When we arrived, most of the villagers gathered in front of Ly Phuc Phuong's house. Before that, they all contributed money to Ly Phuc Phuong. Now that the road construction project of Kien Nghiep Group has been cancelled, the money must of course be returned to the villagers. But receiving money is easy, giving it out is difficult. What's more, traveling during Tet is expensive, and there's still the money Ly Tinh Tinh spent on hiring the media last time. No matter how you calculate it, it is impossible to fully refund the original amount. So from the moment we set foot in Truong Dang village, my ears never stopped hearing curses. After putting the ashes of my grandparents and ancestors on the car, my father took me to bow to Truong Dang village one last time. We do everything very quickly. Waiting for the convoy to slowly leave, Ly Tinh Tinh quickly found an opportunity to run out of the house. But who else can she see? What greeted her was only dust rising from the old concrete road.
