With a snap, Tong Nuanchen broke the glass in his hand.

"Manager Tong, what's wrong with you?"

Tong Nuanchen stared at the glass for a moment before she realized that her colleague next to her was talking to her.

"I'm fine. I was just distracted."

Tong Nuanchen picked up the broom beside her and swept up the glass fragments.

What happened today? I feel a little uneasy. I have never broken a cup before.

Ding-ling-ling, the cell phone rings.

Tong Nuanchen picked up her phone and the caller ID told her the reason for her uneasiness.

Tong Nuanchen walked to the safety passage before answering the phone.

"Mingxu, what's wrong?" Tong Nuanchen was prepared, it was nothing more than Chen Xinyan's dissatisfaction.

"Sister, that's it... that's it, hey, tell them!"

Tong Mingxu handed his phone to the person next to him and wanted to leave, but four or five people stopped him, so he could only sit on the steps of the park behind the company.

"Hello, how are you? What can I do for you?" Could it be Chen Xinyan's family?

"Are you Tong Mingxu's sister?"

Tong Nuanchen was stunned for a moment. From the accent, he sounded like someone from his hometown.

"I am. What can I do for you?"

"Can you be the master of your Tong family?"

"I'll try. If you have anything to say, just tell me!" From the tone of the person, it seemed that he was not friendly.

"Your grandmother said that she would give us your homestead as compensation. The village needs your signature. We found this place based on the address your grandmother provided." The person speaking on the phone sounded impatient.

"My fellow villager, I don't know who you are. We have been in Beicheng for more than ten years, and we don't know much about our hometown. But I can be sure that we are not selling our homestead."

"If you don't sell the homestead, my mother would have died in vain. Let me tell you, a life must be paid with a life. I am already generous enough to let your family pay it back now. Don't be ungrateful." The rough voice on the other end of the phone was filled with anger.

"My fellow villager, have you misunderstood something? There are only me, my younger brother and sister in our family now. When did we kill someone? Don't say this casually. If you think we don't admit it, you can call the police." Tong Nuanchen vaguely guessed most of the things.

"Your grandmother pissed off my mother to death. She said she would sell the homestead as compensation. Don't try to deny it. If it doesn't work, we will call the police." The person on the phone seemed to have kicked the green belt.

"My fellow villager, our parents passed away fifteen years ago. We haven't seen our grandmother in the past fifteen years. What happened in her family has nothing to do with us. Please don't make things difficult for my brother. If it's a murder case, it's better to call the police."

"Your grandmother said that you should use your homestead to compensate for my mother's life."

"My grandmother and her family have their own homestead. You can ask them to sign and they can still sell it. If you are not satisfied with my suggestion, the police will give you a satisfactory explanation."

There seemed to be a pause on the other end of the phone, and then the sound of discussion came again.

Tong Nuanchen led them to the road to call the police, so that if anything happened, the police would help. Anyway, this matter had nothing to do with the three siblings. Grandma was a famous shrew in the village, and she couldn't be persuaded by just reasoning.

"Sister, when will this matter be resolved? I still have to go to work, and my boss is very dissatisfied with me."

"Mingxu, ask those people if the solution I proposed is acceptable. If they don't agree, I'll go over there now."

"You'd better come over, or they won't let me leave."

Tong Nuanchen didn't say anything, she didn't know what to say. She didn't know that from that moment on, they and Mingxu had become more and more distant.

"Okay, I'll go now."

Tong Nuanchen hung up the phone, sighed, and a layer of red appeared in his eyes.
