Ai Xiaoxia transmigrated to the early 1990s, becoming a newlywed bride returning home.
Unexpectedly, her maiden home was a wolf's den, actually forcing her to extort money from her husban...
Chapter 211: Annoyed
Wang Jinfeng could only say to Jiang Lirong, "Eldest brother's wife, although Tingting's pregnancy is a good thing, we can't just let go of her mistakes. Otherwise, what will the second brother's family think? Today, let's get together as a family and talk about these things. You should apologize, and the second brother, don't be so tense. We are brothers, and we can just let this matter go."
Now Wang Jinfeng just wants to smooth things over so that everyone can ease the relationship first before talking about other things.
But Jiang Lirong was unhappy after hearing what the old lady said: "Mom, what's wrong with you? Why do you dislike our family when you come back this time? What's the matter? Just because the second brother's family is doing well, your heart is biased and you look down on us? You should know that over the years, Guosheng has won you face in the city, and we have never embarrassed you in the village. Jingxue is in the supply and marketing cooperative, and our family is also well-known in the village. Now that you are back, who wouldn't say you are blessed?"
Ai Xiaoxia was happy in her heart. This was great. The demons were dancing wildly. Wouldn’t it be nice to sit back and watch the fight?
Lu Jingshen looked at the happy expression in Ai Xiaoxia's eyes as she watched the show, and couldn't help laughing again. This girl is really energetic.
Wang Jinfeng was so angry at Jiang Lirong that she almost died. She also regretted that she didn't wait to communicate with her eldest son before sending someone to find her second son. Now the situation was a mess.
She frowned and looked at Jiang Lirong: "Haven't I been good enough to you all these years? Can't you just go along with me for once today?"
Jiang Lirong also felt wronged: "Mom, it's New Year's Day, and you're here and you want us to apologize to the second son. Why? Tingting lost her job, it was all Ai Xiaoxia's fault. Even if we were wrong about what happened with Lu Lin before, we lost our jobs now, so we are the ones who suffered, okay? You have a granddaughter-in-law who works in the hospital, which is respectable. Isn't it their fault now? You are forcing us to apologize, I won't accept it."
Jiang Zhi sat aside and kept shaking her head. This family was really hopeless. She really had to divorce Lu Guosheng, otherwise she didn't know how she would be used and sacrificed by them in the future.
Wang Jinfeng was so anxious that she was sweating: "Eldest brother's wife, you talked too much today. Although our Lu family has split up, you are all brothers. The second brother's family is now prosperous, and you will have to rely on them in the future."
Lu Jingxue had been silent before, but now he felt uncomfortable when he heard his grandmother praising his second uncle's family, whom he had always looked down upon. He stood up and said, "Grandma, aren't you exaggerating? Even if the second uncle's family is doing some business and Brother Jingshen works in the city, it doesn't need to be said that they are a level higher than us. How many days have they turned things around?"
At this time, Zhang Tingting just came back and walked into the room and said, "That's right. And Ai Xiaoxia loves to brag so much that she even dares to say that they opened a big hotel. Don't you think it's ridiculous?" As she said that, Zhang Tingting laughed to herself.
Lu Jingxue also laughed along with his wife: "They really dare to brag."
At this time, Lu Jingxin spoke up: "Why do you think Brother Jingshen and Sister Xiaoxia are bragging? If you haven't seen it, does it mean it doesn't exist? Then you can only say that you are frogs in the well."
His words shocked Lu Guoji and his family.
After a while, Lu Guoji finally spoke: "Jingxin, what did you say? What do you mean?"
Lu Jingxin said, "Sister-in-law Xiaoxia opened a hotel, the Lingyuan Hotel, a four-story hotel in front of the station. She has shares in it. I'm working there now. Both floors are packed every day, and they're about to open two branches, as well as a bathing center. I'm afraid you'd be terrified by their business."
After hearing these words, Lu Guoji was stunned, completely stunned. He didn't dare to believe it, nor did he want to believe it.
Lu Jingxue and Zhang Tingting didn't want to believe it, because that would make them clowns.
But whether they admit it or not, these things are facts, and these things were said by Lu Jingxin, not Ai Xiaoxia and Lu Jingshen, which makes them even more true.
Wang Jinfeng looked at Lu Guoji and said, "Big brother, you are the eldest brother, you should act like a big brother, right? Now that the second brother is doing well, you should learn from him. And at your age, you should learn to be humble. I can only feel at ease if you brothers are united."
She is not stupid. She cannot be too critical of anyone right now. She can only use this kind of family affection to ease the relationship between everyone first.
Lu Guoji was a person who bullied the weak and feared the strong. After hearing what Wang Jinfeng said, he really wanted to follow his mother's wishes.
But before Lu Guoji could say anything, Jiang Lirong turned to Wang Jinfeng and said, "Mom, honestly, you all know what we've been up to with the Second Brothers over the years. Even though they're rich and powerful, there's no way they're going to help us. Why should we bow down to them?"
She knew how deep the resentment between her family and the Lu Guojiu family was over the years, and it could not be eased by just a few words. Even if she spoke softly now, the other party would not forgive them, so it was better not to say anything.
At this time, Ai Xiaoxia really admired Jiang Lirong. At least she knew herself well, unlike Wang Jinfeng, who did evil but pretended to be a good person.
However, Ai Xiaoxia also knew that she didn't need to speak now, as she still had to deal with Wang Jinfeng and them, so she had to wait and see.
As expected, Wang Jinfeng's face turned pale with anger. She looked at Jiang Lirong and said, "Eldest brother's wife, how come you don't act like an elder sister-in-law at all? If you hadn't instigated it all these years, would the relationship between the eldest and the second brother be so bad?"
She is not stupid. Since Jiang Lirong doesn't want to be a good person anymore, she will be the good person herself and put all the blame on Jiang Lirong.
Although Jiang Lirong herself didn't want to be on good terms with Lu Guojiu's family, she wouldn't take the blame: "Mom, what do you mean? Our relationship with the second son is not good, shouldn't you blame yourself? If you hadn't taken the lead in looking down on the second son, we, as children, wouldn't have been so obvious even if we had this thought. Isn't it because of your hint?"
Ai Xiaoxia really wanted to applaud Jiang Lirong. Although she was not a good person, she was a good assist.
Wang Jinfeng was so angry that her lungs were about to explode: "Jiang Lirong, what are you going to do? You just don't want our Lu family to get better, right? Are you planning to make the three brothers enemies? No matter what happened in the past, they are at this age now. Can they just be awkward for the rest of their lives?"
Jiang Lirong said, "Mom, what's the point of forcing things? You said it yourself, we're already this age, and our children are already married, so why are we still doing all that nonsense?"
"Shut up, you troublemaker woman, you really deserve a beating. If they were all your sons, and now they are falling apart, don't you want them to unite? Do you want your sons to fight every day?" Wang Jinfeng is older now, and she really understands this matter more and more. As she spoke, she really began to regret it.
