Chapter 541 Feeling embarrassed
Lin Yuzhu shook her head and said, "It's okay. I just suddenly thought of something. Many people in the village, including the Zhao family, only knew that your biological mother was married, but they didn't know much about the situation of her husband's family.
I was wondering why the Qin family was so mysterious since they were in the capital and not far from the Zhao family’s hometown.
I didn't expect that she was actually someone's second wife. No wonder she didn't want to tell them. She probably felt ashamed!"
Zhao Yanshu nodded after hearing this. "That should be the case. I went back to ask around before. I heard that she was a rare female comrade in the village who had read a lot of books. That's why she went out to participate in the revolution. She was different from other female comrades in the village. They all envied her."
"Hey, I guess she was deceived by your father. He said that they were married outside, but she was still the second wife after returning. He said that he doted on her the most, but after he went to Hong Kong, he found a third wife.
I heard that in the early years, Hong Kong still followed the laws of the Qing Dynasty, and men could legitimately have three wives and four concubines. "
Zhao Yanshu was silent for a moment after hearing this. "Maybe she wasn't deceived. Maybe she was deceived at the beginning, but later she was reluctant to give up the Qin family's wealth. Otherwise, she would have had many opportunities to leave."
Lin Yuzhu was silent for a moment, then shook her head. "Alright, let's not talk about this anymore. What happens to them has nothing to do with us. We just need to live our own lives. But remember to tell the two children. If you meet them alone outside in the future, don't take anything away. I'm afraid they will start with the children."
"Don't worry, I know!"
…
Qin Yanzhou, who came out of the courtyard, had a very unhappy look on his face.
He kept a cold face until he got in the car. He didn't expect that this elder brother and sister-in-law, whom he met for the first time, would be so disrespectful to him.
This was the first time that the second young master of the Qin family had been treated so coldly!
To be honest, his main purpose of coming to the mainland this time was not to find his elder brother who was given away shortly after birth.
It was also an accident that we found them.
Although the Qin family's ancestors had always lived a good life and accumulated some family property, by the time it was passed down to his father's generation, it had almost been ruined.
After arriving in Hong Kong, they had a hard time at first because they were from mainland China. Fortunately, they sold a lot of their ancestral properties before leaving, which allowed them to continue to develop in Hong Kong.
But at present, the Qin family is just a third-rate family in Hong Kong.
The reason for returning to the mainland this time is that I heard that the mainland is currently developing very fast. Many big families in Hong Kong have returned to the mainland for development, especially the top Hong Kong family, the Guo family, which has also cooperated with the mainland government to develop large commercial areas.
For a continent with such a large population, this is obviously a very promising industry.
After hearing about it, many families in Hong Kong wanted to get a piece of the pie, so so many companies came after the news that the government was going to develop the science park came out.
The same goes for the Qin family. They have been doing business in Hong Kong for more than 20 years, but most of their businesses are industrial. This time they also want to return to the mainland to try the real estate business.
After all, the mainland is vast and rich in resources. If they can do it well, their family will be able to move to a higher level.
But after I got here, I found it a bit difficult. Mainland government officials don’t understand the ways of the world and I can’t send them gifts even if I want to.
But compared with other families, the Qin family had nothing to show off, so Qin Yanzhou was a little anxious. After all, he had fought for this opportunity by defeating the eldest son of the first house and the youngest son of the third house.
I can't fail to accomplish anything and disappoint my father.
Unexpectedly, things took a turn for the better soon.
