Mu En had started planning several years ago, and had always maintained an ambiguous relationship with the dozen or so young ladies who might be candidates, which was more than friendship but not love. Except for those who were intercepted halfway and got engaged and married, to be honest, no matter who the elders chose, Mu En would immediately fall in love with them.
but--
Mu En shook his head. "How can they be the same? I have to make the old man feel that I am the closest to him and that we are most in tune with each other. I have to make him feel that I am his only heir, not just a second best."
Lin Xu lowered his head silently.
Mu En thought for a moment, "Don't go to Uncle Jiang to get information. That old guy is too shrewd. He can ask you directly, I'm afraid he has already investigated everything behind the scenes. This is also a warning to us. We must not act rashly."
"Yes!" Lin Xu responded.
Mu En leaned back in his chair and closed his eyes in meditation. "Tell me, what kind of wife does the old man want me to find? The eldest son married a wild country girl, and he loves her like a treasure. I see that the old man smiles when he looks at her. It seems that the eldest son will not inherit the Mu family's business."
Lin Xu racked his brains, "Do you think the old man will choose a second young lady for you according to the standards of the first lady?"
Mu En sneered, "My father is not qualified to be the head of the family. Even if he is, my mother is not qualified to be the wife of the head of the family!"
Lin Xu didn't dare to respond.
"I think, in the old man's mind, my grandmother is probably the only one qualified to be the wife of the head of the family. Since his sons are not up to the task, the title can only be fulfilled by his grandson. The eldest son has no chance. So, which young lady has the most similar conditions to my grandmother? And also has the same character as my grandmother?"
Lin Xu smiled bitterly, "Second Young Master, this is too difficult, isn't it?"
Mu En also sighed, "I also want this matter to be settled as soon as possible, otherwise I'm almost suffocating! Sleeping with a woman in secret is like being a thief. Sigh! Sooner or later, I will get impotence!"
Lin Xu thought to himself, if he really found a lady from a family like the old lady and got married, would he still dare to be as ridiculous as he is now?
But with a smile on his face, he said, "Master, don't talk nonsense. Look at those ladies, every one of them is madly in love with you! I think you must appease them before announcing your marriage, otherwise, they might commit suicide or something like that, which would be very troublesome!"
Mu En smiled and said, "Then I'll push it to you and say it's yours!"
Lin Xu didn't know whether to laugh or cry, "Master, please forgive me."
...
Zhou Le carefully placed the jewelry box into his safe, threw himself onto the big bed and let out a long sigh.
Happiness is slowly coming towards her, and before her will be a smooth road shining with diamond light. Everything is worth it.
"Knock knock knock--" someone knocked on the door.
Zhou Le quickly stood up and tidied her clothes - she had already changed into a high-necked home suit, which, although somewhat incompatible with the weather, could cover up the marks on her body.
"Come in!" She checked herself to make sure there was nothing wrong before speaking loudly.
Shen Yu pushed open the door and started complaining as soon as she came in. "Why are you staying out, kid? Even your bestie can't do that! How many times has Gu Ming called you? Now even your aunt Gu has come to me. Call Gu Ming back quickly! I've made an appointment with your uncle and aunt Gu to come to my house for dinner tonight! You two, if you have any problems, tell them face to face. No cold war! "
"Mom, I'm not in a cold war with him!" Zhou Le frowned, feeling that Gu Ming and the Gu family were so annoying, haunting them!
"What do you mean by no? Do you think I will believe Zhou Cong's nonsense? Mom is an experienced person. It's normal for young people to fall in love and quarrel. As long as the feelings are not hurt, it's fine! You two grew up together as childhood sweethearts. How many people envy you! When you graduate next year, our two families will hurry up to get your affairs done. Girl, it's really good to marry well!" Shen Yu held her daughter's hand and talked non-stop.
Zhou Le's face turned cold, "Mom, I don't like Gu Ming!"
Shen Yu was stunned for a moment, then reached out and patted Zhou Le's head: "What nonsense are you talking about? That's what happens when you have a quarrel! Tell me, how did he offend you this time? Is there something he didn't buy for you? Mom will buy it for you. If you don't feel relieved, then I'll ask your aunt Gu to buy it for you!"
Shen Yu was used to seeing her daughter being petty and didn't take it seriously.
Zhou Le looked at Shen Yu, feeling both irritable and superior at the same time. However, the Zhou family was her mother's family and would always be her support. Even if it was a small and wealthy family, it was still her face.
"Mom, I'm serious. I don't like Gu Ming and have never liked him! I don't want to marry him!" Zhou Le said firmly.
Shen Yu was stunned for a moment, a little at a loss: "How did this provoke you? What did this guy do to you?"
"Mom, don't you want me to marry a man who is a hundred times, a hundred times, or even ten thousand times stronger than Gu Mingqiang?" Zhou Le asked.
Shen Yu was a little confused. In order to make her daughter happy, she smiled and said, "Of course I hope so? But where can there be such a man? Baby, listen to your mother. Gu Ming is really a good man picked out of a million. Our two families are well matched. Your aunt Gu and I are sisters. In the future, there will definitely be no conflicts between mother-in-law and daughter-in-law. Don't worry! You are the apple of your parents' eyes. Your happiness is our greatest wish! "
Before Zhou Le could speak, Shen Yu said earnestly, "good boy, with your conditions, even a prince can marry you. However, if a prince really wants to marry you, Mom will not let you suffer. Gu Ming must be your good match. A woman is most afraid of marrying the wrong man in her life! This is a lifelong thing, Mom and Dad will not hurt you! Look, the Mu family is comparable to the royal family, right? If it weren't for your happiness, your dad and I would just do it for face and to climb high branches, so why don't you marry you to Mu Ci? Because that's a fire pit, right? Baby, listen to your mother, the Gu family will give us a step, and we'll get off. Don't make a fuss anymore. No matter how good the relationship is, we can't make endless trouble!"
Zhou Le sneered in his heart.
Sooner or later, she would surprise them all.
Okay, then let’s send the Gu family away first.
