Facing this situation, Zhao Ruibing felt a deep sense of helplessness, yet there was nothing she could do to change it. Normally, they hardly ever remembered they even had a younger sister, but now that they needed her, they had no choice but to come looking for help. Knowing that her mother was a soft-spoken person who could not withstand their pressure, she decided to step forward herself, while strictly cautioning her mother not to reveal her own living situation.
With a firm tone, Zhao Ruibing said to Zhang Ergou, "Second Uncle, Yier is my own cousin, so my words do carry some weight." However, Zhang Ergou refused to buy it and complained, "Yier is hiding away and refusing to show her face—how utterly disloyal! Why is it so difficult just to see her?" Zhao Ruibing explained, "Sister Yier is currently busy with major affairs and has countless matters to handle; she isn't intentionally avoiding you. By comparison, your affairs pale into insignificance."
Hearing this, Zhang Ergou retorted with dissatisfaction, "Now that Yier has become the King and owns such a massive estate, is it really that hard to give us a piece of land? They won't even give us a small island and are trying to chase us away. Does she have any human conscience left? Does she still look upon us as her family?" Zhao Ruibing sneered and shot back, "Did you people ever truly look upon Sister Yier as family? You've simply treated her as a cash cow and an ATM."
