"I know that the Si family, the richest family in Mo City and the helm of the Zhenghong Group, has been taken over by Si Zhenghong's eldest grandson Si Ze who suddenly appeared. According to secret information, this Si Ze came from the Jiangcheng Army."
"Zhenghong is involved in hundreds of industries, and has branches in many countries. Recently, they have even entered the new medical beauty industry..."
Shu Qian looked at his father and explained the situation of the Si family very clearly.
Shu Debang was slightly surprised. His son used to have nothing but women in his mind every day, but he couldn't remember these things. He had never heard of some of the news, which really surprised him. Unfortunately, a useless person is useless. He has many sons, and it is impossible for him to let a waste take over his business.
In the end, Shu Debang nodded in agreement: "In that case, let's go!"
At the same time, he did not forget to sternly instruct Madam Shu: "At the banquet, you keep an eye on him. If he shows any abnormality, bring him back immediately."
After he finished speaking, he stepped out of the study. After a while, he heard the sound of a car starting outside the house.
Mrs. Shu walked to the window and watched the car disappear from her sight. She felt great sorrow in her heart. She reached out and stroked the old face that was obviously sagging and had lost its youth, and murmured:
"Is he really that old?"
She couldn't help but think that if the Si family wasn't famous for loving their wives, valuing relationships, and not having affairs, he might not have taken her with him.
Time passed, and in the blink of an eye, it was the day before the banquet. The venue for the Si family's birthday banquet was chosen to be held in their own old villa. The lanterns in the entire courtyard were changed to bright red, and a red carpet was laid on the ground. A red birthday couplet written by Si Jia Wei himself was hung on the gate. In the lobby, there were mahogany chairs and mahogany tables. A huge fairy peach was placed on the table. A longevity character and countless lucky bags were hung on the wall near the door.
The back door of the villa.
"Wife, please help me pass the lantern under my feet." Si Ze stood on the ladder and shouted to Yan Mo who was holding the ladder for him.
"Then I'll let go. Be careful!" Yan Mo warned, letting go of her hand, bending down, picking up a big lantern that was thicker than her waist, and handed it to Si Ze.
Si Ze hurriedly took it and hung it up in one go. After that, he helped hang up the last four lanterns on the ground and climbed down the ladder.
Yan Mo took out a bottle of water and rinsed his mouth: "Si Ze, thank you for your help, otherwise it would take a long time for A Biao to come."
Everyone was very busy today. Several people were called away halfway through loading the lanterns. Several people have been replaced for this batch of lanterns. If Si Ze hadn't helped her, she would probably have to wait for a long time.
"Wife, thank you is almost enough. You have been running around with mom recently for the birthday party. You have been very tired." Si Ze felt distressed and reached out to gently wipe the dust off her face.
Yan Mo smiled and said nonchalantly, "Why should it be hard? This is what we, as the younger generation, should do! Besides, I don't feel tired at all. The one who is most tired is Mom. She hardly stops working."
As a daughter-in-law, she felt distressed when she saw this. She wanted to help but Tang Ping refused. Fortunately, three aunts came over in the next two days and her mother-in-law felt better.
"Master, there is a package for you."
Before Si Ze could say anything, shouting came from the guard room.
"Okay, here I come." Si Ze responded and instructed Yan Mo:
"Momo, I'm going to get something. You should take a break. Stop working on it and go back to the living room and sit down."
"Yeah, I know, go ahead!"
Looking at his receding back, Yan Mo twisted her neck and felt a soreness. She was indeed tired. Even if Si Ze didn't remind her, she would go to rest. She knew her limits.
Yan Mo put down the things in his hands, packed all the tools used to hang lanterns into the bag, took a broom and swept the floor, cleaned up the mess, walked around the garden and went to the hall.
In the tea forest in the back garden.
Si Mei and Tang Ping were picking the newly emerged green buds from the tea trees with bamboo baskets. Because Mr. Si loved to drink fresh tea, their family shipped a batch of tea trees from Hainan and kept them at a constant temperature. Therefore, the spring tea picking season is one or two months earlier than other places. Fresh green buds had already emerged in December this year. The ones they picked now are the first batch. Tang Ping planned to pick some to entertain a group of important guests who have a very good relationship with her family.
Si Mei kept moving her hands, glanced at her sister-in-law, and asked casually:
"Xiao Ping, how many months has Yan Mo been pregnant?"
"Doctor Wu said it should be about two months exactly," Tang Ping replied.
"Two months!" Si Mei murmured, falling into deep thought.
It was exactly two months since the Zhou family banquet. Thinking about the rumors she had heard some time ago and what she had recently found out, Si Mei suddenly opened her eyes wide and had a bad guess in her mind.
She immediately turned to look at Tang Ping, feeling conflicted. Should she tell him or not?
But this is a major matter concerning the bloodline of the Si family. As the daughter of the Si family, she is not allowed to turn a blind eye. This matter must be made clear.
"Sister-in-law, just tell me what's on your mind!" Si Mei's behavior was so obvious, how could Tang Ping, who was very observant of people, not see it? She said frankly.
After pondering for a moment, Si Mei plucked the last tea bud, turned around and stared at Tang Ping, and said solemnly:
"I suspect that Yan Mo is not from my Si family."
This sentence happened to be heard by Yan Mo who was passing through the tea grove on her way to the hall. It successfully made her stop and walk deeper into the tea grove. She wanted to see which servant was so reckless as to spread such rumors. Wasn't this saying that she was cheating on Si Ze and was cheating on him? If this got to the ears of the Si family, her reputation would be ruined.
Thinking of this, Yan Mo quickened his pace, wanting to see who was spreading the rumors.
But when he saw the tea forest clearly and saw who the two people were picking tea, Yan Mo frowned tightly.
It seems like she has never offended her aunt! Why would her aunt spread rumors like this? From the beginning to the end, she has only had Si Ze as her man. How could the child not be Si Ze's?
If it was a servant, she could scold or fire her, but she didn't know how to deal with her aunt. She didn't even know whether she should go out to stop it at this moment. Wouldn't that make her look guilty? But if she didn't stop it, would her mother-in-law believe her aunt? Then it would definitely reach the old man's ears.
Tang Ping's eyes flashed, and he shouted:
"Sister-in-law, do you know what you are saying? You are saying that my daughter-in-law is cheating on me and cheating on my Si family. You are trying to sow discord between us. If my father knows about it, you should know what the consequences will be." Tang Ping's tone of voice was very sharp. The most taboo thing in the Si family was to sow discord and cause internal consumption and struggle.
