Chapter 514 Isn’t this just walking into trouble?

Zhang Liang said: "What is Cheng Hui's status now? What is my status? To put it bluntly, she is now an ancestor! No one dares to mess with her, for fear that she will fail to complete the order and put the blame on others!

"And I may have to take the blame... Have you heard? Cheng Hui has been in a bad mood recently because of my aunt's matter. She has no focus on work and has made several mistakes in succession, resulting in the recent orders not being completed! The higher-ups are getting furious!"

Because they were afraid that foreign businessmen would take advantage of the raw materials again, Cheng Hui and Jiang Ming had agreed beforehand to tell the outside world that they could not complete the order and would not ship the goods in the near future.

Actually I want to wait and send them together before the deadline.

In order to appear more like one, you need to have a reasonable excuse to the outside world.

Isn't Zheng Manru walking into trouble?

"What!" Zheng Suhua was shocked. "How could this happen? She is such a strong-willed person. Didn't she always ignore your aunt? How could she be affected by it?"

She always heard her son mention Cheng Hui and always thought she was a very strong woman. Didn't he take Zheng Manru seriously before?

"She is a woman after all. She is young and just gave birth to a child. Her emotions are unstable. Besides, how can a good person not take it seriously when being provoked by my aunt again and again?" Zhang Liang said:

"You have no idea how badly my aunt said to others, saying that all her achievements were due to men, that the design drafts were given by men, that the job was given by men, and that even so many foreign exchange orders were obtained by accompanying foreign businessmen! Now they say that she had an affair with my uncle..."

"Okay, stop talking!" Zheng Suhua said, "No good person can stand her provocation! Really, why didn't the Qi family send her to the countryside earlier? If they had sent her there earlier, there wouldn't be all these things happening now! What should we do now? Does she really want to do something to you?"

If it were her, she would also vent her anger on him! She is now a little afraid that Cheng Hui will come to her house.

Zheng Ke sat nearby, not saying a word, feeling guilty.

Zhang Liang said: "I begged her to give me another chance. I told her that my family would definitely be able to control my aunt's mouth this time. If she spreads rumors again, I would rather quit my job."

"No! Our family is counting on you now!" Zheng Suhua said.

Zheng Ke has three daughters and only two grandchildren, Zhang Liang and Qi Jiaojiao.

Qi Jiaojiao and the others knew from a young age that they would never amount to anything great, but fortunately Zhang Liang was neither good nor bad and was just fine.

I was lucky this year and got an east wind. It was about to rise, but was blown down by Zheng Manru's west wind?

"I understand. Just focus on your work. I won't bring her back." Zheng Ke said.

He had actually thought about this before.

After all, they are my most beloved youngest daughter and granddaughter.

He originally wanted to wait for a month until the Qi family’s anger had subsided, and then he would secretly bring Zheng Manru and Qi Jiaojiao back.

Now, he doesn't dare to do that.

Zhang Liang heaved a sigh of relief. In fact, when Cheng Hui asked him to come over today, her attitude was quite polite. She just gave him a slight hint and didn't say anything harsh.

But he didn't dare pretend he couldn't hear it!

Although Cheng Hui didn't say it, he knew that if the Zheng family didn't have a clear position and continued to help Zheng Manru, he would definitely be in trouble!

"Grandpa still loves me!" Zhang Liang hugged Zheng Ke's hand and shook it.

Zheng Ke's expression eased a little, and he asked, "Does Cheng Hui like calligraphy and painting? I have a few paintings by Qi Baishi, can you pick one for her?"

Without going into the cause and effect, he felt embarrassed because his daughter said that to others, so he wanted to make amends.

But he would definitely be embarrassed to show up, so it was a good opportunity for Zhang Liang to go.

Zhang Liang paused and said, "She should like it. One time I saw her buy a lot of things from a cultural relic store. Some of the boxes looked like they were for calligraphy and paintings."

In this day and age, antiques don't necessarily have to be smashed or burned. That was just the chaos in the first few months when ignorant people were messing around.

Later, it became less radical and cultural relics stores were opened, so people could sell old items from their homes to the stores.

Part of the items in the antique shop are exported to earn foreign exchange... and part are sold to people of sufficient level.

If someone who is not at a high enough level wants to buy it, there is of course a way to do it. They can just find someone who is at a high enough level to take him along.

Cheng Hui asked Jiang Ming to take her to clean up the place.

Bought a lot of good stuff!

Nowadays, many antiques, calligraphy and paintings only cost tens or hundreds of dollars.

Especially the works of Mr. Qi, there are many of them in existence, more than 40,000 pieces, and they are not valuable now, with a small one costing tens of yuan and a large one costing hundreds of yuan.

Cheng Hui will never miss it if she sees it.

I spent all my salary and bonus on these.

Investing in this is more convenient than investing in real estate, has greater appreciation, and is not eye-catching.

She has asked Jiang Ming to shut up~

Jiang Ming didn't dare to say anything. After all, he was the one who took it there. Outsiders who didn't know might think he bought it.

He doesn't have that much money!

Cheng Hui is now the director of a food factory, an electrical appliance factory, and a furniture factory, as well as the deputy director of a garment factory and an enamel factory. His monthly salary is more than 1,000 yuan, plus even more bonuses. He really can't compare with him.

Zheng Kesong said, "As long as she likes it, just pick one for her."

He is a calligrapher and he likes to collect ancient paintings. He is of a high enough level and spends all his salary on these things.

He didn't want to choose in person, he would feel bad no matter which one he chose!

Zhang Liang didn't like this at all. He wasn't interested at all. When he heard the old man's words, he immediately stood up and said, "Then I'll listen to you and choose right away!"

He glanced at his mother.

Zheng Suhua also stood up and said, "Dad, let me keep an eye on him. Don't let your beloved be chosen."

Zheng Ke nodded.

The two entered the study, and Zheng Suhua immediately opened a box like she was familiar with it, took out an empty box from it, and then put the things in it!

She put five paintings into a box that was supposed to hold one, and only stopped when the box could hardly be closed.

"Mom...you...my grandpa would be heartbroken if he knew about this, right?" Zhang Liang said with a smile.

Zheng Suhua said: "It's okay, he won't be able to find it for a while, I'm the one who organizes the things, he doesn't often look at these, but they are definitely good things!

"Besides, things are dead, but people are alive. These things will be mine sooner or later. What's mine is yours. Now is the time to use them!"

"Mom is the best!" said Zhang Liang.

Zheng Suhua looked at him and smiled. She didn't know why, but the more she looked at her son, the more she liked him. She liked him more and more. She always felt as if she had regained something she had lost.

But she has never lost anything... Bah, bah, bah, it was all because of Zheng Manru scaring her!

"It's better that your aunt left. It's better that she never comes back! Otherwise, she will harm you again." She said, "Isn't she trying to find the whereabouts of your second aunt? It's just right that she is in Harbin now, so let her find it herself!"

Zhang Liang also laughed: "That's right, I won't take this hot potato."

He went downstairs carrying the box.

Zheng Ke watched him wrap a small box and felt relieved. Just now he was worried that his daughter would drain his family assets in order to pave the way for his son. Now it seems that he was worrying too much.

After Zhang Liang left, Zheng Ke asked, "What did you get him?"

"It's nothing, just a painting by Zhang Daqian." Zheng Suhua said.

Zheng Ke suddenly felt heartbroken. Although Zhang Daqian is still alive, his paintings have always been very expensive.

But at least I just had to endure it.
