Chapter 1754 Bewitched
Mrs. Lu was so angry that her chest felt cold, her vision went dark, and she almost fainted!
It’s so bullying!
If Mrs. Lu hadn't been asking the clan leader's wife for help, she would have started swearing.
You can't play tricks on me like this. It was clearly agreed upon and their family was fully prepared, how could it change so suddenly?
What do you mean by forget it! How can this be forgotten?
If this matter is really let go, will the Lu family still have any shame? How can they face relatives, friends, and neighbors?
Madam Lu suppressed her anger and began to seduce the clan leader's wife.
What she said made sense. If Zhao Shu married her daughter, the benefits that the clan leader's family could get would be much more than what they have now. She made very generous promises to the clan leader's wife.
He also said that by then people from the clan leader's family and the clan leader's wife's family would be able to manage Zhao Shu's business. Isn't that good?
If Zhao Shu really married the sister of Lord Shao, well, she is from an official family, but all the benefits would belong to Zhao Shu alone. What would the clan leader's family get?
The clan leader’s wife was very excited.
But she did not agree immediately. Instead, she found Zhao Shu again and explicitly or implicitly asked Zhao Shu to take care of her two sons, her brothers from her mother's side, and her nephews.
Zhao Shu was particularly disgusted.
It was impossible to agree to it, so he only said that these people could meet Uncle Qing, and Uncle Qing would arrange suitable positions for them, but they had to abide by the rules and follow them.
Moreover, not everyone can be a manager, and it is even more impossible to let them become the chief manager right away.
Even if they come to help me, they will be promoted slowly and according to their own ability, just like everyone else...
Although Zhao Shu didn't have much of a say in things, he was influenced by them. Plus, these were the rules set by his mother, Zheng. All the businesses under his control and all the operations of the Zheng family in the past were like this, so he certainly wouldn't change them for anyone.
This made the clan leader's wife very unhappy.
Her two sons were pretty good, and she felt that they should be able to take charge of the affairs of the house from the beginning. After all, they were Zhao Shu's cousins. How could Zhao Shu have the nerve to let his servants take care of his cousin?
She knew the level of her brothers and nephews from her mother's side. A small landlord in the countryside had about 300 acres of land, and they were used to being masters. How could it be possible for them to start from the bottom?
They go there to make money and enjoy life, not to work like slaves.
If Zhao Shu was willing and cared about his aunt, wouldn't it be enough to let them take charge of things and assign them an assistant to do the work?
But he doesn't at all!
Even when I proposed it myself, he refused.
This guy is as stingy as his father.
The clan leader's wife couldn't resist the temptation offered by Mrs. Lu, and she was also dissatisfied and angry, so she turned around and discussed the matter with Mrs. Lu.
She sent people to hint at Zhao Shu and found out that it was impossible for him to change his mind about marrying the girl from the Shao family, so she naturally started to have evil ideas.
First, it was arranged for Miss Lu and Zhao Shu to "encounter by chance". A wonderful encounter can make people believe that it is a beautiful fate "destined by God" and can make people fall in love at first sight.
If Miss Lu were to dress up nicely, she would be a pretty beauty. Add to that a wonderful chance encounter, maybe Zhao Shu would be attracted to her.
If this is the case, it is the best outcome and everyone is happy.
But I didn't expect that it was an accidental encounter, and it was beautiful, meeting unexpectedly in a sea of plum blossoms, but Zhao Shu turned around and ran away...
