Chapter 151 Pretend to be Yan Mingde Returns to China
There are big differences between men and women. If Yan Yichen were to find a partner for Yan Yanran, Yan Yanran might not be satisfied. After what happened in her previous life, Xu Ruyun did not think of marrying for love. Love is not something that everyone can have, and the length of time they can have it is also uncertain.
"Don't be so foolish thinking about love. Love is unreliable." Xu Ruyun said, "Especially those rich people. Those men with a little money, how many of them don't go out to find women? Don't believe their sweet words. They are not that good."
"Mom..." Yan Yanran was not very happy. Was her future just waiting to get married?
"If you can't win, then waiting to get married is not good." Xu Ruyun said, "It's not like you can't find a good partner. Don't blame others, don't think too much. Just think about how to live a good life in the future, that's all. I think you are not suitable for fighting, so just be stable."
The competition for inheritance is not about who has the loudest voice or who is more unruly and willful.
Xu Ruyun didn't want her daughter to go in headfirst, fearing that she would get hurt. Xu Ruyun wanted her daughter to live a better life and be happier. Not everyone can be reborn, Xu Ruyun's rebirth is already a gift from God.
Once upon a time, when Xu Ruyun was just reborn, she didn't let go of many things. She said she let go, but in fact she became paranoid. But now, Xu Ruyun is not so paranoid. She knows that she has to rely on herself for many things and she has to think more.
"In two days, you will go on a blind date." Xu Ruyun said.
Yan Yanran looked at her mother leaving, feeling sad. Why did she have to go on a blind date? Yan Yanran didn't really want to go on a blind date at this time, but it was obvious that no one cared whether she went on a blind date at this time or not. Those people only thought about their own interests.
Before Yan Yanran went to college, she thought she lived in a happy family, and her mother and Yan Mingde were separate. When Yan Yanran went to college, she found that many things were different from what she thought, and the difference was too great. Even the seemingly loving parents, they all had their own calculations.
Yan Yanran felt that her brain was not enough. The beautiful fairy tale collapsed and turned into an accident.
When Yan Yanran was preparing for a blind date, Ning Wenjun brought a boyfriend back. Her boyfriend was Song Yuan, the youngest son of the Song family. Song Yuan had two older brothers. He did not work in the company, but his parents gave him a lot of real estate. Song Yuan usually collected rent and played when he had nothing to do, either playing with women or playing with toys.
The Song family has a good family tradition, and Ning Wenjun and Song Yuan are classmates. Song Yuan is two years older than Ning Wenjun. Ning Wenjun skipped a grade, but Song Yuan did not. Song Yuan liked Ning Wenjun very much when he was in school, but he didn't dare to say it. The secret love during school days was basically hidden in his heart.
When Song Yuan learned that Ning Wenjun was looking for a partner, he was anxious, afraid that Ning Wenjun would fall in love with someone else. Song Yuan found Ning Wenjun and stammered about his many advantages, saying that he didn't have a job and could take care of the family, and that it didn't matter if he married into the family because he had two older brothers and his parents would agree.
When Song Yuan said those words, he seemed particularly worthless. Ning Wenjun said he would consider it, and Song Yuan was a little disappointed, afraid that Ning Wenjun would not agree. Song Yuan returned home in despair. After his family learned that Song Yuan liked Ning Wenjun, they also wanted to find Su Xueqing and her husband, but they didn't want to intervene casually, fearing that if they intervened too much, the children would be unhappy, so it would be better to say less.
After Ning Wenjun agreed to Song Yuan, Song Yuan was extremely happy.
Song Yuan had met Amelia Su and her husband before. This time, he came to meet Amelia Su and her husband as Ning Wenjun's boyfriend, and he was even more nervous.
"I...I can marry into the family." Song Yuan said.
"..." Su Xueqing didn't expect Song Yuan's first sentence to be this.
"Do you think this is your greatest strength?" Ning Wenjun said with a smile.
Song Yuan felt a little embarrassed, as he was afraid that Su Xueqing and her husband would be unhappy.
Su Xueqing was not too dissatisfied. Her daughter had already told her before she came back with her boyfriend. The reason why Ning Wenjun chose Song Yuan was because Song Yuan did not have to inherit the family business and was willing to be a good wife. As long as Song Yuan did not cause trouble for Ning Wenjun, life would still be fine.
Ning Wenjun didn't think of looking for a man who was too powerful. A man who was too powerful would easily cause problems. Ning Wenjun didn't think she could control him. Her parents had a good relationship. Her father fell in love with her mother first. Ning Wenjun didn't dare to expect that she and her partner could be like her parents. Ning Wenjun wanted to have a romantic relationship. If there was, it would be the best thing. If not, she couldn't force it. Forcing it would only hurt herself.
Su Xueqing and her husband invited Song Yuan to dinner. They watched Song Yuan grow up. Su Xueqing and her husband had contact with the Song family. The Song family had a good family tradition and did not have so many dirty things. It was better than many other families.
Ning Wenjun herself didn't want to find someone with a complicated family background. She didn't believe in the domineering CEOs in novels, where the male protagonist was persecuted by his family and took the family property in return. How could family property be so easy to take? Novels are just novels after all. Ning Wenjun never thought that a domineering CEO liked her. It was almost the same for her to be a domineering CEO herself.
Song Yuan was recognized by Su Xueqing and her husband. Ning Wenjun would then take Song Yuan to meet Ning's father and mother, that is, Ning Wenjun's grandparents.
When Song Yuan returned home happily, his mother knew that the matter was mostly settled. This disappointing son was finally going to get married, and Song's mother and father thought about preparing more dowry for their son, so that he would not have a hard time in his wife's family in the future.
"You're not even married yet, why are you so happy?" said Song's mother.
"I'm happy." Song Yuan said, "I've been thinking about it for a long time."
Song Yuan had liked Ning Wenjun since high school and wanted to be with her. When Ning Wenjun went to college, he also wanted to chase her out, but he didn't because he was sick. Although it was not a serious illness, Song Yuan took hormone drugs at that time and became fat. Song Yuan was worried that Ning Wenjun would see his ugly appearance and that Ning Wenjun would not like him, so Song Yuan did not dare to chase her out.
During the time when Ning Wenjun was studying abroad, Song Yuan often checked the class group to see if Ning Wenjun had posted any messages in the group. Song Yuan did not dare to send a message to Ning Wenjun alone, fearing that it would disturb Ning Wenjun's rest, or that Ning Wenjun would directly block him.
Song Yuansheng felt so restless that he was afraid that Ning Wenjun had found a boyfriend abroad. When he asked someone he knew who was in the same city as Ning Wenjun, he was very careful, fearing that they would not tell him.
Many people in the class knew that Song Yuan had a crush on Ning Wenjun, but few people went to Ning Wenjun to tell her. Secret crushes are hidden in the heart, and no one talks about it. No matter what others say, it will cause misunderstandings.
"Your assets are not as good as Wenjun's." Song's mother said.
"I don't want to be better than her." Song Yuan said, "I'm not the eldest brother or the second brother. I just need to collect the rent. Wenjun said she likes simple people like me."
"..." Mother Song didn't know what to say when she saw her son's worthless look.
Song's mother knew what Ning Wenjun was thinking. Ning Wenjun didn't want a husband who was too strong, fearing that he would interfere with the company. Ning Wenjun wanted to find a simpler person who could be controlled by her, and Song Yuan happened to be such a type.
"Maybe she doesn't love you that much." Song's mother reminded Song Yuan to prevent her son from asking for too much in the future.
"What's the big deal?" Song Yuan said, "She wants to be with me, and she's not with anyone else. She didn't choose to marry anyone else, she chose to marry me. We're going to live together for the rest of our lives, and as long as I don't do anything wrong, she won't abandon me. I can stay at home to take care of the kids and be a nanny. Husband and wife are meant to complement each other, and there's no need to talk about equality in love. It's very hard to always think about equality."
Song Yuan thought clearly that it was good enough for him to be with the person he loved, so why bother thinking so much. Song Yuan knew Ning Wenjun's character. Since Ning Wenjun chose him, she would not do anything to let him down. Of course, he, Song Yuan, would not do anything to let Ning Wenjun down.
"You originally owned some shares of the company, but I won't give them to you anymore," Song's mother said. "I will also give you some houses and shops, and let you collect rent from them."
If Song Yuan wanted to marry into the family, it would not be appropriate for the family to give him too many shares. The Song family was not afraid that the Ning family would control the company, but most families were like this, and would be a little cautious to reduce unnecessary trouble. No one knew what would happen in the future.
"Okay." Song Yuan had no objection. "Give me a little more. I have to take care of the child in the future. The child needs money for milk powder. I am a grown man, I can't take care of the child for free."
After getting those things, Song Yuan thought that he could give all the property deeds to Ning Wenjun, so that Ning Wenjun could see that he had those properties and could support himself. Song Yuan did not plan to transfer all the properties to Ning Wenjun. He had to collect rent and have some money in his hands. He could not ask Ning Wenjun for money. Song Yuan thought about it. He could give Ning Wenjun some money every month. No one stipulated that the man who married into the family could only wait for his wife to give him money.
"Okay, I won't let you eat and live for free." Song's mother couldn't help rolling her eyes.
Ning Wenjun's friends asked her why she chose Song Yuan. Those people felt that Ning Wenjun could have chosen someone better, and Song Yuan didn't seem to be of much use.
"He is very good and suitable for me." Ning Wenjun replied to her friend.
The Ning family knew that Ning Wenjun had such a boyfriend, and they didn't have much objection. They all knew what Ning Wenjun was thinking. Ning Wenjun didn't want a man who was equally matched with her, but a man who could coax her a little more. As long as Ning Wenjun liked it, the other people in the Ning family supported Ning Wenjun.
Ning Wenjun can manage the company by himself, and there is no need for someone to help Ning Wenjun manage the company.
Amelia Su caught a cold, and she still wanted to go out to sell things, but Wang Keke wouldn't let her.
"If you go to the stall and talk with a mask on, people will be able to tell that there's something wrong with your voice," Wang Keke said. "If you are allowed to go, people will think that the things on our stall are contaminated with the virus."
Wang Keke didn't worry too much about Amelia Su. She was afraid that the guests would misunderstand her, not pretending to care about Amelia Su. Anyway, it didn't matter whether Amelia Su went or not. Wang Keke and his wife could set up two stalls. The things were already prepared and placed. They just had to take the boxes down.
“You…if you finish selling things earlier, go to Yaozu’s place.” Amelia Su was worried that Wei Yaozu couldn’t do it alone.
"Wait until I push all the things back, then we can decide whether to go and have a look." Wang Keke said, "Yaozu is not a three-year-old child, he can do things well. You don't believe in him, but I do."
It's not like Wang Keke hasn't set up a stall with Wei Yaozu before. The current Wei Yaozu can work, not that he can't work. It's just that when Amelia Su set up a stall with Wei Yaozu, Amelia Su often told Wei Yaozu not to work and let him rest. Wei Yaozu simply took a rest and let Amelia Su sell breakfast.
Although it was mainly Amelia Su who sold breakfast, Wei Yaozu still had a past, and Wang Keke let Wei Yaozu get over it. Wei Yaozu didn't want to become a waste, and he felt that he became like this because of Amelia Su. Wei Yaozu couldn't continue like this, he had to listen to his wife.
Amelia Su still wanted to go to the stall with Wei Yaozu, so she went downstairs.
"Mom, please don't go." Wei Yaozu said disdainfully, "Don't delay our business."
“I’m delaying business?” Amelia Su pointed at herself.
"Yes, we have to pay attention to hygiene when making breakfast." Wei Yaozu said.
“It’s not like we didn’t go out to sell breakfast when we caught a cold before,” Amelia Su said.
"That's because we didn't have enough manpower before. Now we have enough manpower, so of course we have to be more careful." Wang Keke said, "Mom, do you know what word of mouth is? That's right, even grandma... why do you care about word of mouth or not?"
"What are you talking about your grandma doing?" Amelia Su was dissatisfied, "Can't you get over this matter?"
"It's impossible." Wang Keke said, "Just go back and have a good rest, don't delay us."
Wang Keke signaled Wei Yaozu to ride the tricycle away. If Wang Keke moved the dining car, she couldn't go back to rest and had to open the stall. Wang Keke and Wei Yaozu ignored Amelia Su and they both left.
“Your daughter-in-law treats you very well.” Others saw that scene and said to Amelia Su, “By the way, what happened to your mother?”
"My mother is fine. She died a long time ago." Amelia Su said.
"Is your mother a good cook?" asked the neighbor.
"If you know some cooking skills, you won't starve to death." Amelia Su said impatiently, "My daughter-in-law is not good at all. She comes from the countryside and doesn't know any manners. Whenever I say something, she talks back. She has to talk back and doesn't give me any face."
"I think she's doing this for your own good. That's not talking back." The neighbor said, "She's asking you to rest, that's not a good thing. She's just concerned about your health."
"She was afraid that no one would buy breakfast, and she was also afraid that I would have to spend money because of my poor health." Amelia Su said, "She even called me an old man in private..."
"I've never heard her scream like that," said the neighbor.
“They all said it was done in private, so of course they called it secretly,” Amelia Su said.
"She screamed secretly, and you knew it?" asked the neighbor.
"She just called me secretly, she called me." Amelia Su said, "She called her family and said that I was old and immortal."
Amelia Su didn't hear it clearly, but that's what she said anyway. Amelia Su didn't give her daughter-in-law any face outside, and didn't care whether her daughter-in-law wanted to save face or not. She just said the daughter-in-law's faults outside. Amelia Su didn't talk about her son, but only talked about her daughter-in-law.
When the neighbors heard what Amelia Su said, they didn’t know what to say. Being a mother-in-law is not that easy.
“I shouldn’t have hired her for the sake of cheapness in the first place.” Amelia Su said.
"Your daughter-in-law is great. She is willing to set up a stall with you." The neighbor said, "You used to set up one stall, but now you have two, and you make more money. Your daughter-in-law is such a hard-working person, don't always praise her. It's not good, she will be unhappy, and after she hears these words, she will be displeased with you in the future."
"She's already showing me a bad face now, so why should I be afraid that she will show me a bad face in the future?" Amelia Su said, "She's really not good."
The neighbor didn't continue to tell Amelia Su that other people's daughters-in-law are not their own daughters-in-law. If she said too much, others would resent her.
Ning Wenjun and Song Yuan were about to get engaged. Su's father was old, so Su Xueqing arranged for someone to pick him up at the hotel. Things between Ning Wenjun and Song Yuan were going very smoothly. Ning Wenjun didn't want the man to marry into her family at first, but since Song Yuan said so, she let him marry into her family.
The Song family had no objection to Song Yuan's decision to marry into the Song family's family. What was important was that Song Yuan himself liked it.
At the engagement banquet, Amelia Su and her husband did not invite Amelia Su and others, nor did they invite the Yu family. Some relatives should give up what they should give up, and there is no need to have too much contact.
Su Xueqing is well maintained and looks young. When people see Su Xueqing and Ning Wenjun standing together, some say they look like sisters.
Su Yanan is twelve or thirteen years older than Su Xueqing, so she looks much older.
"There are so many people today." Su Yanan sat next to Su Sansao. She looked at the people coming and going. Some of them were people she could only see in magazines and newspapers.
"Yes, there are many." Mrs. Su said, "Today is Wenjun's engagement day, so there are many people. That's normal."
The Ning family is such a powerful family, how could they not have many people?
Xu Ruyun and Yan Yichen were not invited, and they did not try to get an invitation. Xu Ruyun and her husband knew that they were not welcome by the Ning family. The Ning family had done a lot for the Yan family, and the Yan family could not push their luck any further.
The engagement party was very lively. Ning Wenjun behaved generously and looked very strong. Ning Wenjun had her father's aura, while Su Xueqing was a little softer.
During the engagement banquet, Su Xueqing asked someone to take care of Su's father, who was old, and there were also Ning's father and mother. These elderly people needed to be paid more attention to, and they couldn't get hurt. After the engagement banquet, Su Xueqing asked someone to send Su's father back.
Father Su spoke very little, and when he spoke, it was to wish Ning Wenjun and Song Yuan well.
After returning home, Su Xueqing sat on the sofa to rest. Ning Wenjun also came back, and Song Yuanxian went back to the Song family.
"Do you really plan to live at home after you get married?" Su Xueqing asked.
"Yeah, can't we live here?" Ning Wenjun said.
"You can live here, it's not that you can't live here." Su Xueqing said.
"Mom, you don't have to be too nice to Song Yuan. You don't have to please him. He is the one who wants to please you." Ning Wenjun said, "As a son-in-law, you must have the awareness of being a son-in-law."
"..." Su Xueqing turned to look at Ning Wenjun. This was what her daughter said.
"That's right." Ning Wenjun said, "Some people treat their son-in-law well with the intention of trying to please him, because the son-in-law doesn't live with them. They treat him well because they want him to treat their daughter better. Song Yuan married into our family and lived in our house. He should be worried that we would treat him badly, so he should try to please us. His parents should also be nice to me. If they treat me badly, I will treat Song Yuan badly."
"You." Su Xueqing chuckled, "I didn't think about trying to please my son-in-law. I just thought that if you feel it's inconvenient to live at home, you can live outside. You don't have to live at home. You young people may not like us living together."
"Mom, you are also very young." Ning Wenjun hugged her mother, "Mom, people say we look like sisters."
"Okay." Su Xueqing said, "Then you can live at home. If you feel inconvenient, you can move out at any time. Don't worry about moving out. You are used to living at home and don't feel anything. Song Yuan may not be the same. Maybe he..."
"He said that he knows how to be a good wife." Ning Wenjun said, "Mom, don't worry, Song Yuan is still good. A few days ago, I saw his college photos. He was fat. He was fine in high school, but he became fat in college. Fortunately, he is not that fat now. If he was still that fat now, I wouldn't want to bother with him."
"He was sick at first and took medicine. The medicine contained hormones, so he became fat." Su Xueqing said.
"I know." Ning Wenjun said, "I don't dislike him. When he was fat, he was okay, not particularly ugly. Those people sent me photos just because they wanted me to not want Song Yuan. Am I such a superficial person?"
Ning Wenjun thought that as long as Song Yuan was fine now, why bother thinking about the past. Ning Wenjun went abroad to study, she didn't know that Song Yuan was sick, no one told her specifically, and when she returned to China, she was in a hurry, busy studying and practicing.
"Those evil-minded people are thinking of taking over my property and destroying my family." Ning Wenjun said, "How could I not know them?"
"It's good that you know what's going on." Su Xueqing patted Ning Wenjun's hand gently.
Today, Su Xudong went with his family to attend Ning Wenjun's engagement party, where he met his boss. When their eyes met, Su Xudong had no choice but to greet him, because he couldn't let his boss greet him.
Su Xudong didn't expect to meet his leader at Ning Wenjun's engagement party, and his leader didn't expect that Su Xudong was actually Ning Wenjun's cousin.
"Your leader is here too." Mrs. Su said, "What did you say to your leader?"
"I didn't say anything, just a few simple words." Su Xudong said, "I didn't talk about my relationship with my cousin when I was in the company."
Su Xudong just wanted to work hard and didn't think about using his so-called connections to get promoted quickly. Su Xudong had a lot of wealth, so he didn't need to work so hard, and just lived a decent life.
"There's no need to say it." Mrs. Su said, "Work is work, why bother talking about it?"
This is how Su Sansao taught Su Xudong before, don't always rely on his aunt's relationship, it's not easy for his aunt to marry into a wealthy family. They can cause less trouble to Su Xueqing, so they should do their own things well, which is more important than anything else.
"But the leader knows it now." Su Xudong said.
"You'll know when you know." Mrs. Su said, "There's nothing we can do about it. Wenjun is already engaged, so you should bring a girlfriend home soon. Mom is not your eldest aunt, so if you find a country girl, that's fine. As long as you like her, you can get married. If I don't like her, I can live separately from you, and that's fine. Nowadays, many young people live separately from their parents after marriage, and don't have to live with their elders."
"Mom, you don't have to rush me. If I find a suitable person, I will definitely bring him/her back." Su Xudong said.
When Su Xudong went to work, the leader met with Su Xudong alone.
"You are really good at hiding things," the leader said with a smile.
"At work, we only deal with official business, not personal matters." Su Xudong said, "I didn't say anything."
"Not bad, not bad." The leader said, "You have a promising future."
The leader was quite satisfied with Su Xudong. He didn't know that Su Xudong and Ning Wenjun were cousins, but Su Xudong worked very hard. Su Xudong did all the work assigned by the leader, and he didn't slack off. If Su Xudong was lazy, he would have been fired long ago.
The leader spoke a few words to Su Xudong and asked him to leave the office.
When his colleague saw Su Xudong coming out, he asked him, "What did he tell you?"
"Nothing." Su Xudong said, "It's just that the leader assigned me a job."
Su Xudong did not intend to let more people know about his relationship with Ning Wenjun, and he could not use Ning Wenjun to benefit the company. The company was not Su Xudong's, and Su Xudong was just an employee. Su Xudong did not need a high commission, his family had money from the demolition, so it was enough.
The leader is a smart man, he didn't let Su Xudong go to Ning's company casually. Some relationships are used when they shouldn't be used, which is not good at all. Song Yuan asked the chef at home to teach him new dishes. He had learned some before, but now he feels that he has not learned enough and needs to learn more. Song Yuan sometimes cooks directly for everyone to eat and asks everyone if it tastes good, because he is afraid that his food is not delicious.
When Song's mother saw Song Yuan busy in the kitchen, she couldn't tell her son not to do those things. She thought that her youngest son should be happy and be able to be with the person he loved, and that was the right thing for him.
"I don't know who he looks like." Song's mother and father sighed.
"Let him learn." said Song's father.
Song's father thought that Song Yuan could still play a role and form a business alliance. Ning Wenjun was so outstanding, and many people were eyeing Ning Wenjun, but Song Yuan succeeded. Song's father was proud of Song Yuan, and his youngest son did a good job.
Yan Yanran went on a blind date. The person she was dating had a poor family background, not as good as the Song family. It is not easy to find someone with a good family background and a good family tradition, and all the conditions are good. Yan Yanran went on several blind dates, but she was not very satisfied with any of them.
When she got home, Yan Yanran told her mother that she didn't like those people.
"Does it matter whether you like them or not?" Xu Ruyun said, "Love is not the only thing between men and women. You can't enter the company, so you resist blind dates and don't look at them seriously."
Xu Ruyun knows her daughter, she is still too young.
What’s the use of resisting? It’s better to make a good choice.
"If you always resist like this, do you want your dad to find someone for you directly?" Xu Ruyun asked, "If he finds someone directly and you don't like it, do you want your dad to refuse? Do you think your dad has so much time to deal with these things?"
Xu Ruyun thought Yan Yanran was too stupid. If Yan Yanran didn't want to go on a blind date, she shouldn't go. If she really went on a blind date, she had to do it well and not let people think that Yan Yanran was disrespectful. What Yan Yanran did now would only make others have opinions about her and the Yan family.
Of course, if the man is generous, they won’t say anything. But if the man is not generous enough, they will see the clues and they may say it.
Although blind dates require mutual attraction, sometimes a little liking is enough.
"Mom..." Yan Yanran said, "Am I a tool?"
"To put it bluntly, you are just a tool for marriage." Xu Ruyun said, "You were born in the Yan family and have enjoyed a lot of things. You should also give something back. Don't be too naive. If you are naive, you will only hurt yourself."
Yan Yanran's eyes were red, she felt that her parents were becoming more and more cruel and heartless.
"Don't think your parents are heartless." Xu Ruyun said, "People outside are even more heartless. When your grandma comes back, she will be even crueler to you. Your dad and I at least screened the people you would like to meet for a blind date, instead of asking you to meet everyone. It's best to settle it early before your grandma comes back. When your grandma comes back, your dad... who knows if your dad will listen to your grandma."
Xu Ruyun was not sure. Yan Yichen had always been gentle with his mother, not too tough. Yan Yichen always thought about the days they spent together on the farm and his mother's efforts. He had a high tolerance for her. Even if his mother did something wrong, Yan Yichen would think that she was his mother.
Especially since Yan's mother has been abroad for many years, she hasn't gotten into trouble in China for a long time. Distance creates beauty, Yan Yichen only thinks Yan's mother is good, and it's not easy for Yan's mother to take care of Yan Mingde abroad.
It was Yan's mother who took Yan Mingde away, but Xu Ruyun did not make a fuss to take Yan Mingde back later. Yan Yichen might have felt guilty towards Xu Ruyun. But now, Yan Yichen does not feel so guilty towards Xu Ruyun. They still have two children, Yan Yanran and Yan Mingde, who grew up with them.
"Some things can't be avoided just because you don't want them to be." Xu Ruyun said, "Mom has said so much to you, but did you listen? Do you think you are still the same as when you were little? When Yan Mingde makes you unhappy, you rush over and yell at him? You are not a child anymore, you have grown up, and your dad can't treat you as a three-year-old child. If you still act like that, your dad will only think that you don't understand things."
Xu Ruyun put a lot of thought into her daughter, but her daughter was still too naive.
"Mom...Okay, I'll listen to you." Yan Yanran said. In her impression, her grandmother treated her very badly. Yan Yanran couldn't wait for her grandmother to come. If she waited for her grandmother to come, she would be finished.
"Listen to me, then go on blind dates well." Xu Ruyun said, "I'll ask your father to give you more dowry."
"Okay..." Yan Yanran didn't expect that after growing up, she would become a tool for marriage.
It's not that Xu Ruyun doesn't want her daughter to join the company, it's just that her daughter has no means. It's not impossible for Xu Ruyun to let her daughter join the company, but it will make Yan Yichen unhappy. Xu Ruyun thinks that's not worth it, Yan Yanran is not strong enough to make Xu Ruyun feel that she can fight Yan Yichen for her daughter.
Then, Yan Yanran went on another blind date. She did not fool around anymore, but took the blind date more seriously.
When Yan Mingde returned to China, Yan Yanran was already married. At this time, Ning Wenjun and Song Yuan were also married, and they lived under the same roof with Su Xueqing and her husband.
Ning Wenjun and his wife and Su Xueqing and his wife live on different floors, and each has their own independent space, which can reduce friction and conflicts. Parents may have conflicts with their own daughters, not to mention with their sons-in-law. It will be much better if everyone keeps a little distance.
In the middle of 2008, after Yan Mingde came back, he wanted to join the company. Yan Yichen naturally did not refuse, he directly arranged for Yan Mingde to join the company and let Yan Mingde start from the grassroots.
When Yan's mother heard that Yan Yichen asked Yan Mingde to start from the grassroots level, she was not very happy.
"Start from the grassroots. Which grassroots should we start from?" Yan's mother said, "Mingde is your son and the heir of this family."
"Let him get to know the company a little bit first." Yan Yichen said.
Yan's mother lived with Yan Mingde, and they did not live in the same house with Xu Ruyun and her husband. Yan's mother disdained Xu Ruyun, and it was like that before, and it is still like that now. Xu Ruyun knew Yan's mother's attitude towards her, and she did not intend to seek abuse. She only came to see Yan's mother when she came back, and she did not come again.
At this moment, Yan Yichen came to Yan's mother and explained some situations to Yan's mother and Yan Mingde.
"Why don't you just teach him more?" Yan's mother said, "Why does he need to start from the grassroots? His last name is Yan, and the employees will know he is your son as soon as they hear his name. So does he still need to start from the grassroots? He is just doing it for show!"
Yan's mother refused to let Yan Mingde start from the grassroots level. "Yan, it's not a famous family name. Do you think those people can't guess it?"
"I guessed it. We have to start from the grassroots level." Yan Yichen said, "Mingde has just joined the company. He doesn't understand those things and it's easy for him to mess things up."
"You say he can't do a good job before he even starts?" Yan's mother asked, "Do you think Mingde is uneducated and unskilled abroad, and that I haven't taken good care of him? Or do you think Mingde is in league with me, and that's why you don't let Mingde be the manager?"
"No, it's not like that." Yan Yichen frowned. He explained a lot to his mother, but she didn't agree.
"Grandma, I'd better start from the grassroots level." Yan Mingde said.
Yan Mingde certainly wanted to be in management, but if he insisted on being in management at this time, it would only make his father unhappy. Yan Mingde had been abroad for so many years, even if his grades were not good, he would still pretend.
"Mingde." Yan's mother looked at Yan Mingde, then glanced at Yan Yichen, "As a father, you really don't know how to love your son."
"..." Yan Yichen didn't think that he didn't love his son. If he didn't love his son, he wouldn't have spent so much money to let Yan Mingde study abroad.
During the years Yan Mingde and his mother were abroad, they spent a lot of money. Yan Yichen never said he would not give them money, nor did he say he would give them less. Whenever they were short of money, Yan Yichen would give them money.
"Grandma." Yan Mingde pulled at her mother's clothes.
"Let's just keep it at the grassroots level." Yan's mother said, "Yan Yichen, don't forget that Mingde is your eldest son, your biological son. He is also the child of you and Xu Ruyun. Yan Mingkang is not the only son of yours!"
Yan's mother is worried that Yan Yichen will let Yan Mingkang inherit the family property instead of Yan Mingde.
After Yan Yichen left, Yan's mother looked at Yan Mingde and asked, "I told you to be in the management level, why did you say grassroots level?"
"Dad won't agree to this." Yan Mingde said, "If you continue to say those things, it will only make Dad unhappy."
"Why do you care whether he is happy or not?" Yan's mother said, "This entire Yan family should belong to you."
"It's not up to me to decide, it's up to my dad now." Yan Mingde looked out the door. If his grandmother had the final say, he would have become a big boss. But his grandmother didn't have the final say, Yan Mingkang grew up next to Yan Yichen, Yan Mingde had seen how much Xu Ruyun loved Yan Mingkang, and Yan Yichen was the same.
Yan Mingde knew that it was hard for him to be better than Yan Mingkang. All he could do was to make his father softer on him and let him know that he had grown up. Yan Mingde thought that he had suffered a lot abroad. He thought that he would be embarrassed by foreigners when he went abroad, but his grandmother often embarrassed him. Yan Mingde remembered the hardships he had suffered. He had suffered so much, and the family company should be his, not someone else's.
"Grandma, Dad is no longer the same dad as before." Yan Mingde said.
"Your great-grandmother is gone, and I am the oldest person in this family." Yan's mother said, "How can your father not listen to me?"
"..." Seeing his grandmother was so stubborn, Yan Mingde did not speak. Yan Mingde knew that his father would not always listen to his grandmother. His father might listen to his grandmother in some private matters, but it was not certain that he would listen to his grandmother in matters involving the company.
Yan Mingde had a bad relationship with his biological parents since he was a child. It was too late to cultivate feelings now. Xu Ruyun would definitely stand on Yan Mingkang's side, and Yan Yichen would probably stand on the side as well. Yan Mingde looked at Yan's mother standing next to him. His grandmother was of little use.
"Don't be afraid of your father." Yan's mother said, "Grandma is still here, and she will always stand by you. You must inherit the Yan family, and the Yan family can only be yours."
Yan's mother hated Xu Ruyun. If Yan Mingkang inherited the Yan family's company, Xu Ruyun would be very proud. Yan's mother couldn't let Xu Ruyun be so proud. She wanted to make Xu Ruyun's idea fail.
"I know." Yan Mingde said. His grandmother was not on his side. His grandmother was on her side.
A grandma who is often crazy can't help me much. But there is a benefit in that grandma is still alive.
Yan Mingde lowered his head slightly to hide the darkness in his heart. Yan Mingde was no longer the willful person. He hated his grandmother, his parents, and his brothers and sisters. Those people lived a happy life, while his life was too miserable.
At night, Xu Ruyun saw Yan Yichen coming back to the room and asked, "How is Mingde?"
