The Domineering Boss is Addicted to the Convict novel Chapter 102

The third aunt tried her best to persuade Grandma Lu. After all, her father and two elder brothers had promised her that they would give her 300,000 yuan when the time came.

300,000 yuan was equivalent to her yearly salary!

However, no matter what the third aunt or Grandpa Lu said, Grandma Lu refused to cooperate. In the end, the third aunt simply said, "Mom, Big Brother, and Second Brother said that if you mess this up and our nephews can't afford a house and a wife, they will blame you for the rest of their lives!"

Grandma Lu felt angry and anxious when she heard that. "Do you... do you still have any conscience? Have you forgotten how Yiran used to take care of us?"

The third aunt smiled and said, "Mom, the past is the past, and the present is the present. You can't ruin our family and the future of our younger generation just because of her. Besides, my nephew and second nephew not being able to marry also has something to do with her. Why would any daughter of a decent family still want to marry them if they heard that one of our family members was in prison? Not to mention if we don't even have a house prepared for the brides-to-be."

After a while, Grandma Lu gritted her teeth and looked at her third daughter with tears in her eyes. "How... how can you be worthy of your sister?"

The third aunt didn't take it seriously. Her fourth sister had been dead for so many years. Even if she was indeed close with her before, how could that compare to the money she could get now?

Ling Yiran was still surrounded by her cousins out in the front. Her cousin, Hua Lifang, was chewing on sunflower seeds as she said with a faint smile, "I heard Grandpa said that he had asked your father about you. Your father said that you're a street sweeper now. Is that true?"

Hua Lifang was one year older than Ling Yiran, but she had been on the losing end since they were young. Ling Yiran had been a straight-A student in school, but Hua Lifang couldn't even manage to enter a university. After graduating from high school, she went to take on part-time jobs. Later, she ended up marrying a metalsmith in the neighboring town.

At that time, Ling Yiran was dating Xiao Ziqi, the son of a rich and powerful family. When Hua Lifang thought of the person that Ling Yiran had managed to hook up with and thought about her own partner again, she felt inferior and ashamed.

Now that Ling Yiran had fallen so low, she would naturally want to step all over her in return.

"That's right, I sweep the streets," Ling Yiran said in neither a shameful nor arrogant tone.
