Sure enough, not long after, Fifth Aunt began to take action. She frequently contacted Jiang Congyou, passing on internal family information. Jiang Congxue used this information to constantly adjust his strategy.
In fact, Aunt Fifth can no longer access any internal core, but she is still Uncle Fifth's wife after all. She knows the conversations between relatives and she is one of the family, so it is easy for her to know about the Chamber of Commerce. Therefore, she still knows some things about business.
Did Fifth Aunt really betray the family? No! She was seeking revenge! She hated her mother-in-law. If it weren't for her, she would have long been the head of the Jiang family. Unlike now, she was just an abandoned child.
So when she knew that Jiang Congyou had returned to take revenge on the Jiang family, she knew that her chance had come.
Fifth Aunt told Jiang Congyou everything about the Jiang Family Chamber of Commerce and mentioned many emerging business models.
Isn't this the same as exposing your weaknesses directly to the enemy?
But Fifth Aunt has her own agenda. She's not entirely motivated by Jiang Congyou, but rather by a desire to profit from this family feud and seek revenge on those who have despised and hurt her. She knows that simple betrayal won't bring her true satisfaction; only by playing a key role in this struggle can she experience unprecedented power and pleasure.
When Shui Shui replaced Old Master Jiang at the helm a few years ago, she didn't benefit at all, and even revealed that she had embezzled some of the Chamber of Commerce's funds over the years. Only she knew how miserable she was in the Jiang family during those years. Therefore, revenge was her greatest wish.
Jiang Congyou was briefly excited after receiving this intelligence, believing he had found a shortcut to defeating the Jiang family's eldest wife. However, he overlooked the complexity and cunning of his Fifth Aunt. While providing intelligence, Fifth Aunt also secretly observed Jiang Congyou's actions, trying to find his weaknesses so that she could strike back at a critical moment and gain greater benefits for herself.
Jiang Congyou did not sit still and wait for death. He was not someone that Fifth Aunt could control. Even if Fifth Aunt tried to find Jiang Congyou's weakness through observation, she couldn't find it.
Jiang Congyou knew that if his actions were exposed, he would face severe legal sanctions. How could he easily let Aunt Wu have any evidence? He ordered his men to accelerate the implementation of his plan, attempting to seize control of the family business before the Jiang Family Chamber of Commerce could fully react.
A battle for control of the family business quietly unfolded within the Jiang family. Jiang Congyou used the funds and intelligence networks he had accumulated overseas to secretly acquire shares in the Jiang family's companies, attempting to gain control of the companies through a battle for equity.
While the Jiang family is furious and disappointed by their fifth aunt's betrayal, Jiang Shaoming and Jiang Huashu remain undeterred. Instead, they exploit this opportunity to deliberately spread false information, misleading Jiang Congyou into misjudging his actions. Meanwhile, through Li Yichen's close collaboration with the public security authorities, they gradually uncover Jiang Congyou's influence within the country, preparing for the final showdown.
As time went on, Jiang Congyou gradually sensed something was amiss. He found that the intelligence he was receiving always seemed a little off, unable to truly strike at the heart of the Jiang family. This was because Fifth Aunt had only told him stories from her time at the Chamber of Commerce, but now, after Shui Shui's "reform," she was unaware of the new operating model and cooperation mechanisms, which were known only to those who actually ran the Chamber of Commerce.
Jiang Congyou began to doubt the loyalty of his fifth aunt, but it was too late. The Jiang family had already laid a tight net and was waiting for the best time to close it.
As for Aunt Five, she realized that she was being used by both sides and realized the danger of her situation. She began to regret her impulsiveness and greed, but it was too late. She had become a discarded child in this family struggle.
