Over fifty years old, without children, she cared for her aging parents. After seeing them to their end, and with a bit of savings in hand, a mysterious space suddenly appeared.
What was ther...
"Big brother, sister-in-law, you should make some too."
"Are you done with your work?"
"Now that you're done with your work, you've probably heard about what's going on at home!"
"I heard, brother. Before I came, the men from the Zhang, Wang, and Fang families called me and said they were apologizing on behalf of their wives."
"Third brother, what did you say?"
"My answer was that I didn't know the specifics, and that apologizing to me now was a mistake, and then I hung up the phone."
"So now you know everything?"
"I understand, the regular expression told me right away."
"In that case, what do you think of this matter? We just guessed that the person behind it is the Jing family of Haishi. What do you think?"
"Besides them, there shouldn't be anyone else."
"No, third brother, how can you be so sure?"
"I just received a notification that Comrade Jing Yuanchao will be coming to Beijing to take up a post in the military unit next Monday, and the position he will be taking over is the one I am currently in."
"So that's how it is. But everything was already arranged from above, so why did they still target our Shen family?"
"I'm afraid the Jing family wants to move the whole family to Beijing, otherwise they wouldn't be making such a big move."
You should know that no matter how prosperous the area of Beijing is, it's not as far as our hutong. Every single resident here is an insignificant figure in Beijing.
The Jing family wants to come to Beijing, so they definitely want to squeeze into this city directly.
But right now, besides our Shen family, who else would dare to take action?
"That's true. Right now, the only person with real power in the military is the fourth brother, but that's not something he can decide on his own. What exactly does the Jing family want to do?"
"Sister-in-law, I think they want power, influence, and money."
Few people in Beijing possess all three of these things. And our Shen family happens to have them all.
"But do they really think they can take over the Shen family?"
"No, didn't we already hire three helpers?"
"Sister-in-law, you mean the Zhang, Wang, and Fang families? It's good enough that they don't hold us back."
"That's true, but those three families are easier to conquer than the others."
"That's true. Now that we know who it is, what's our next step?"
"Mianmian, what do you want to do?"
"If you want to do something, you have to play with them properly. You can't end it too early, otherwise it will be so boring."
"You can decide for yourself. Just tell us what you need us to do."
"Okay, brother. By the way, brother, could you please keep an eye out for me? If the Jing family comes to visit again, could you please tell them that I want to meet them, but not now, but a week from now?"
Why a week later?
"Mianmian, do you mean you want to see Jing Yuanchao again after he has finished his duties?"
"That's right, I have to see if they really have any connection."
“However, I’m afraid Jing Yuanchao won’t meet with the younger generation of the Jing family. After all, when he first came to Beijing, he was probably too busy to meet anyone else.”
"Aren't there other people? Surely Jing Yuanchao doesn't have any family?"
"Yes, Jing Yuanchao's wife came with him. As for his son and daughter, they came to Beijing a long time ago and are now studying at Peking University in Beijing."
I'm happy to have worked in computer science and finance for a month.
"See! That's the problem. Given the current situation of the Jing family, they don't have any extra assets for juniors like them to practice on."
"You mean they're after your assets just for this?"
"Not all of them, but they're pretty much the same. No one would complain about earning less money."
"Do you know the name of that guy from the Jing family who studied finance?"
"I think her name is Jing Qianqian?"
"Jing Qianqian, Jing Qianqian, could it be her?!"
"What's wrong, sister-in-law? Do you know her?"
"Sister-in-law, do you remember what my second sister said about Mingcheng's girlfriend's name when she came back last time?"
"It can't be such a coincidence, could they be the same person?"
"Things can't happen by chance; there must be something going on."
"No, we have to ask them properly."
“That’s right. Here’s what we’ll do. Your older brother and I will be in charge of asking around. You should quickly arrange for someone to investigate and see if it’s the same person.”
"good."
It seems they really are everywhere, but thankfully we now know their purpose.
Even if the two children do fall in love and cannot be separated, they would not do such a thing. However, it is unlikely that they will be able to enter the business world on their own.
"I'll call my second brother-in-law to ask. Don't worry about anything else, and don't worry about Mingcheng either."
"I know, if the girl is nice, it's really not a big deal."
"I'm afraid she's using Mingcheng. Don't be fooled by their ability to stand on their own; when it comes to matters of the heart, it's hard to say."
"That's right. You can tell Mingcheng for me that no matter whether he's convinced that he won't marry Jing Qianqian, he can't do business in the business world using my name."
I, Li Mianmian, will not help anyone with the surname Jing. Even if this matter has nothing to do with the Jing family in the end, I will not help anyone.
If you want to establish yourself in the business world, you have to rely on your own abilities.
"Don't worry, I'll explain it to him."
"That's good. Let's explain it to Sister Nan as well!"
"Okay, I won't let this affect your relationship with your second sister."
Even if it doesn't have any impact, it will probably still create cracks.
"It's okay, my child and I will always stand by your side."
"good."
It's fortunate they're not from the same family, otherwise I wouldn't know how to handle this mother-son relationship.
Finding a girl who studies finance as a girlfriend, or even a wife, wouldn't be a problem.
But the problem is that the other person wants to devour you. Knowing this, how could you possibly hope they can still be together?
What exactly is the Jing family trying to do? They want to establish themselves in Beijing, but instead of being honest and hardworking, aren't they just courting death by taking this path?
Or is it simply because they think the Shen family or themselves are easy to bully?
If you want something from someone else, you should at least consider whether they would agree to it. Why don't you just do things in a down-to-earth manner?
Or has something happened to the Jing family that forced them to do this? The old man of the Jing family has seen it all before; he's not that kind of person.
Could it be that his sons were dissatisfied with the status quo, or that the Shunjing family's grandchildren acted on their own initiative?
But how could such a big matter be accomplished without someone in charge offering advice and suggestions? The reason is that the one from the Jing family is courting death.
And what about the Zhang, Wang, and Fang families? Why are they taking such a huge risk? Don't they know that if things go wrong, they could be doomed?
Or is it that the Shen family is really hindering the development of these families? No! The Shen family has not been involved in politics, so how could they be hindering their development?
