Chapter 2642: Mission 28

Editor: Henyee Translations

How could it be so straightforward to resolve matters by going to the county? In the village, there were individuals unwilling to provide proper compensation. In such cases, they would usually resort to the county themselves. However, if the county visit proved unfruitful, returning with frustration, it might be more practical to address the issue within the village. Offering a reasonable settlement could often bring resolution.

Adopting was a considerably more complex process compared to household registration.

The residents of the north village were skeptical about their ability to navigate the county’s bureaucracy effectively within the 500 meters. They eagerly antic.i.p.ated observing the unfolding events and deciphering the logic at play.

But…

Did she just claim it was already done?

The surprising revelation left them astonished.

The Land Officer, aware of their skepticism, had only antic.i.p.ated witnessing a spectacle. It was widely known that he harbored disdain for the third branch of the Yan family.

As Gu Chaoyan and her sisters returned home, she confidently affirmed the successful completion of the adoption process.

Furthermore, she displayed generosity, treating everyone in the village. Those willing to partake in the banquet were welcome, and she intended to make it a grand affair. Considering Tian Jiu a good child, she wanted to ensure his positive reception.

Meanwhile, the residents of the Yan family’s old house, along with the Land Officer, couldn’t sit idle any longer. They all gathered to confront Guo Jin.

Old Man Yan, filled with hostility, barged in, questioning Guo Jin with disdain. “You’re adopting that kid from the Tian family? Have you sought my permission? How dare you adopt so casually? Does the first son not have a son, or can’t you adopt within Second Brother’s family? Must you find someone else to adopt? Isn’t this embarra.s.sing our Old Yan family?”

Old Man Yan, naturally a.s.sertive, even intimidated Ms. w.a.n.g.

Gu Chaoyan pulled Ms. w.a.n.g aside and confronted Old Man Yan. “You claimed not to care about us, and now you talk about needing your permission and Uncle’s son? Are you senile or just out of your mind?”

Gu Chaoyan showed no deference to Old Man Yan, who had not been supportive of the third branch of the Yan family. He had been a hindrance in various ways, and she had no inclination to tolerate his criticism.

This elderly man had not contributed anything positive to the well-being of the third branch, and Gu Chaoyan had no desire to a.s.sociate with such a person, let alone allow him to censure her in this manner.

“You, you good-for-nothing. Leave. Third was my son. His possessions belong to me. How can I stand by and let you claim victory here?” Old Man Yan exclaimed, his emotions running high.

Gu Chaoyan remained unruffled, standing her ground. She spoke slowly, “Don’t forget, we have already severed ties. The old house didn’t allocate anything to my father back then, declaring that our paths would diverge. Why is everything now presumed to be yours?”

“…”

“My mother is still here, and my sisters are still here. You a.s.serted that our third branch lacks a male heir. Now that Father has a son, Yan Tianjiu fills that role. You need not worry about anything. Everything is in order.”

Gu Chaoyan faced challenges with composure, rendering Old Man Yan incapable of gaining any ground in her presence.

Old Man Yan was infuriated and on the brink of exasperation. He had never been fond of these perceived ‘good-for-nothings,’ and true to his expectations, they were not individuals who would provoke him to the point of angering him to death.

“You… you…” Old Man Yan struggled for words.

Gu Chaoyan, maintaining her calm demeanor, addressed him, “If there’s nothing else, you can go home. Our family is ready to retire for the night.”

“You…”

Just as Old Man Yan found himself at a loss for words, the Land Officer arrived.
