Chapter 283 Don’t Make Trouble Too Much
Every family has its own problems. The Zhang family was famous for their harmony in Kyoto. The first and second wives lived like one family. Especially in the first wife's family, Zhang Jinglin and his wife were upright and honest, and their two sons were young and promising.
However, even in the Zhang family, which is praised by everyone for its harmony, there is also an unstable factor, and that is Zhang's second sister-in-law, Tang Wei.
Lu Shuyun used to think that Tang Wei was just straightforward and sometimes spoke without thinking, which was not a big problem. But today, she found that this was not the case.
Her desire to invest in Gu's supermarket was not a spur-of-the-moment idea, but something she had thought of before, or someone had already told her what to do.
It takes time to truly understand a person's true character. When I was arranging a marriage for my second son, I thought Tang Wei's father was a cadre, her mother was a teacher, and her family was well-educated and cultured. A child raised in such a family would surely be good.
Who knew that after spending time with them, they would realize that the Tang family was a very calculating group of people. They could scheme as much as they wanted before, but it never happened to them anyway.
But this time it was different. Gu Erhui hadn't even entered the Zhang family yet, but they were already thinking about plotting against her. This was because they thought it would be easy for Zijun to find a good partner.
Moreover, how would the Gu family view the Zhang family? The two families hadn't even officially married yet, and they were already plotting against their business. How could she put her face to shame?
While Lu Shuyun was scolding Tang Wei, Zhang Jinglin called his second son, Zhang Ziyao, to the study and told him about this matter. "You and Tang Wei are husband and wife. You can't just ignore everything she does. This isn't a big deal. Let your mother go to the Gu family tomorrow to apologize and it will be over. But what about the future? What if she does something wrong again?"
Zhang Ziyao sat across from him, his head down, playing with the water cup in his hand without saying a word. Zhang Jinglin's brows knitted together, "You agreed to the marriage in the first place. No one in your family forced you to do it. Who are you trying to show off to?"
Zhang Ziyao placed the water cup on the table and said softly, "I understand."
"What do you mean now that you know? Or do you just not care?" The father knew his son's temper, and he didn't listen to him at all.
He added earnestly, "A man's career is important, but family is also important. No matter how well you do in your career, if there's someone holding you back, you won't have a smooth journey."
"I understand." Zhang Ziyao still looked indifferent.
Zhang Jinglin waved his hand helplessly and asked him to go out. His son was grown up and he could not interfere in the affairs between them.
Zhang Ziyao left the study, and Lu Shuyun finished scolding him. The couple went home together. After leaving the courtyard, Tang Wei carefully glanced at Zhang Ziyao and said, "I really didn't think too much about it. The Gu family just arrived in Kyoto, so they definitely need connections. Cooperating with us is also mutually beneficial."
Zhang Ziyao looked at her calmly, "I don't care what you do normally, but don't use your calculations on my family. This is the first time, and the last time."
He then rode off on his bicycle, his back cold and aloof. Tang Wei stamped her foot. Others envied her for marrying well, the Zhang family's upright traditions, and Zhang Ziyao's promising youth, but who knew the pain she was going through?
In the past few years that they have been married, Zhang Ziyao was only a little warm to her when they first got married, but it didn't last long before he started to keep her at a distance. They basically didn't interact with each other normally.
Zhang Ziyao would go to the study as soon as he got home from work. He would eat after she cooked dinner, then go back to the study and go back to his room to sleep very late at night. She tried every trick to please him but it was useless.
She had made a scene before, but whenever she did, Zhang Ziyao would talk to her eldest brother, and then she would be scolded by her family. She didn't know what the point of living was.
Zhang Zijun sent Gu Erhui home. He was very cautious when he entered the Gu family's house. He was afraid that Erhui would be angry. After he left, Gu Siqing walked over and asked Gu Erhui, "What happened at the Zhang family's house?"
Gu Siqing's behavior in the past few years made the entire Gu family not treat her as a child. Gu Erhui did not hide the truth from her and told her everything. After hearing this, Gu Siqing tutted her lips and said, "There are rivers and lakes everywhere!"
Gu Erhui chuckled, "Yes, where there are people, there are rivers and lakes."
Gu Siqing waved her hand, "You are a martial arts master, don't be afraid."
Gu Erhui laughed out loud. Gu Jianguo, Wang Yueju and Gu Yimin looked over when they heard them laughing. Gu Erhui did not hide anything from them and told them what happened at Zhang's house today.
Wang Yueju frowned when she heard this, but Gu Yimin said, "The Zhang family split up a long time ago. From now on, she and you will only be sisters-in-law. Just ignore her."
Gu Erhui also felt the same way. If the Zhang family's eldest wife was difficult to get along with, she would just stay away. But now it seems that the other people in the Zhang family's eldest wife are all very nice.
Wang Yueju sighed, "Every family has that one child who doesn't know how to behave." Didn't they have Wu Dani in their family? Not to mention the couple in the second wife.
They didn't care much about it, but Zhang Zijun was very concerned. After leaving the Gu family, he found a place to call Zhang Ziyao and asked, "Second brother, did you know that Tang Wei wanted to buy shares?"
"I don't know." Zhang Ziyao naturally knew what kind of personality Zhang Zijun had and what he was going to do, but he just said, "Don't make too much trouble."
Zhang Zijun hummed, hung up the phone, drove to the bank to withdraw 10,000 yuan, and then went to the Tang family. Today was Sunday, and the Tang family was all there. It was the Tang family's nanny who opened the door for him.
"You're here?" The nanny knew Zhang Zijun and knew that this man was not to be trifled with.
Zhang Zijun didn't even look at her. He walked straight into the Tang family's living room with a nonchalant gait. Tang Wei's parents, brother and sister-in-law were all there.
As he entered, Brother Tang Wei stood up to greet him, but before he could say anything, Zhang Zijun threw a wad of money on the coffee table. "You need money, right? Just tell me if you need money! Why are you beating around the bush and calculating against me?"
The Tang family was stunned for a moment before their faces turned red with anger. They were being slapped in the face! And by a second-generation rich kid at that!
"Zhang Zijun, what are you doing? You come to my house to show off your power." Brother Tang Wei considers himself a man of status. It would be strange if he could endure being slapped in the face like this.
"What are you doing?" Zhang Zijun pulled up a chair and sat down, dangling his left ankle over his right leg, his attitude completely unscrupulous. He said, "Tang Wei said she wanted to invest 10,000 yuan in my boyfriend's supermarket, giving him a 30% stake. That's blatant robbery! I never knew your family had such a strong tradition."
When the Tang family heard about this, their expressions changed. They hadn't expected the deal to fail. With a family like the Gu family, shouldn't they be overjoyed to agree to cooperate?
And this won't be bad for the Zhang family! Isn't this a powerful alliance?
