After General Manager Gao and Director Wu left, the old lady held Lu Xueqing's hand tightly, "Xueqing! It seems that this young marshal really treats you differently! Grandma was right about you!"
Lu Xueqing looked somewhat embarrassed.
She couldn't understand why Zhang Miao had sent so many invitations.
I don't know if this has anything to do with the young marshal.
The old lady pulled her aside and said, "Xueqing! Grandma asked you to ask about the young marshal, did you ask?"
Lu Xueqing's smile froze instantly.
For the past two days, the old lady has been pulling her along, trying to get her to go see the young marshal and plead for Lu Haitao.
They want Lu Haitao to receive a shorter sentence.
But she had never even met the young marshal, so how could she possibly do that?
Besides, Lu Haitao brought this upon himself, and she wasn't going to be so kind as to plead for him.
Lu Xueqing bit her lip and said, "Grandma, I've already spoken to the young marshal, but he said that even a prince is subject to the same laws as a commoner, and he can't help with this!"
Of course, she made this up herself; to dissuade the old lady from this idea, she had to lie.
Sure enough, the old lady felt extremely disappointed when she heard what she said, and all her joy from before vanished.
At her age, the most important thing is the continuation of the family line.
The Lu family is now facing a tremendous loss with their eldest grandson in prison.
"Grandma..." Lu Xueqing wanted to say a few words of comfort, but didn't know how to start.
The old lady patted the back of her hand and said, "Alright, Grandma knows. You've done your best. You're Grandma's good child. The Lu family will have to rely on you in the future. So, at the next general meeting, Grandma will announce her will and hand over the controlling stake to you!"
"Thank you, Grandma!" Lu Xueqing said, trembling with excitement.
"Grandma, this invitation..."
"Oh!" The old lady quickly took the invitation. "I'll think about it and see who I can invite to the military parade!"
"Grandma, could you save four tickets for me? I want our whole family to share in the joy!" Lu Xueqing said quickly.
"Your whole family is going?" The old lady frowned. In her mind, apart from Lu Xueqing, the rest of the family were useless and it would be a waste for them to go.
The old lady said vaguely, "Don't worry, Grandma will definitely allocate it reasonably!"
"Alright then!" Lu Xueqing nodded, then said a few more words to the old lady before getting back to work.
After she left, her second grandson, Lu Haishan, suddenly slipped in.
"Haishan, what brings you here?" The old lady's eyes were full of kindness. Now that her eldest grandson had gone inside, she cherished her second grandson even more.
Lu Haishan's expression was unnatural. After hesitating for a moment, he finally spoke up: "Grandma, do you really want Lu Xueqing to become the major shareholder? This Lu Group is our Lu family's business! Lu Xueqing is just a girl, she's like water spilled from a bowl. If the Lu Group falls into her hands, she won't bear the Lu surname anymore!"
The old lady shook her head and sighed, "What can I do? If it weren't for Xueqing, our Lu family wouldn't even get a single order. Now that she's valued by the young marshal, our Lu family's future development depends on her! Let her be a major shareholder, so that while we can enjoy the fruits of her labor, we can at least get a sip of the soup!"
"Grandma, you're too optimistic!" Lu Haishan shook his head and said, "If you let her be the major shareholder, will we definitely get a share of the profits?"
The old lady frowned, then shook her head and said, "You're overthinking it. Xueqing is someone I watched grow up; she's not the kind of child who would turn her back on her family!"
"That's hard to say!" Lu Haishan shook his head again: "Grandma, take my brother's matter for example. Think about it! She can even get an invitation to the grand ceremony, so what difficulty would it be for her to help my brother out?"
"In my opinion, she simply doesn't want my brother to come out!"
The old lady paused for a moment, and after listening to her grandson's words, she realized that there was indeed some truth to them.
Lu Haishan quickly added, "Grandma, she doesn't want my brother to come out because she's afraid he'll fight her for the family fortune! She's so heartless and ruthless for a little bit of inheritance. Do you think she'll treat us well once she gains power?"
The old lady suddenly woke up.
"Then, what should we do? I've already promised her that I'd hand over the controlling stake to her. If she goes back on her word and the young marshal blames us and suppresses the Lu family, we'll probably end up with nothing!"
This is the old lady's biggest concern!
The Lu family wants to rise to prominence, but they all depend on Lu Xueqing's relationship with the young marshal.
Lu Haishan shook his head. "Grandma, you're really getting senile. You've been fooled by her and don't even realize it!"
"You idiot, who are you calling senile?" The old lady glared at him angrily.
If it weren't for his beloved second grandson, he would have slapped him long ago.
Lu Haishan smiled and said, "Grandma, think back carefully. Did the young marshal ever show his face from beginning to end? What kind of status does the young marshal have? Why would he easily interfere in such trivial matters!"
The old lady paused for a moment, then looked back carefully and realized that the young marshal had indeed never shown up.
"you mean……"
Lu Haishan pursed his lips and said, "Grandma, if you ask me, all those things before were caused by Zhang Miao, and the young marshal had nothing to do with it!"
"If we fall out with Lu Xueqing, at most we'll only offend Zhang Miao!"
The old lady nodded, agreeing with her second grandson's reasoning. However, she still hesitated and said, "But right now, all the company's projects were brought in by Xueqing. If Xueqing leaves, these projects will probably be affected!"
Lu Haishan shook his head. "Grandma, in my opinion, you have absolutely no need to worry!"
"Now that you have the invitations in your hands, we can definitely use them to our advantage!"
Lu Haishan pursed his lips and continued, "You know, these invitations are incredibly hard to come by these days. Countless big bosses want them! We can use these invitations to secure more orders, or even sell them directly to those big bosses! We can make a killing!"
"So what if we lose Lu Xueqing's projects? We've already made our first pot of gold! We can totally do it on our own!"
Lu Haishan said with a serious expression, "Grandma, you have to understand that what we truly hold in our own hands is money. Rather than being manipulated by others, it's better to take control of the situation ourselves!"
The old lady's eyes lit up, and she nodded, saying, "Haishan, you're right! Only what you hold in your own hands is real; everything else is fake!"
The old lady looked approving. After her second grandson said that, she suddenly felt enlightened!
“You’re much smarter than your brother. You have vision and a broader perspective. If he had your brains, he wouldn’t be in this situation…”
The old lady sighed, then seemed to remember something, and looked at Lu Haishan with bright eyes, saying, "Haishan, how about this, when the shareholders' meeting is held and the will is announced, I will hand over the controlling stake to you! That way, Grandma can finally rest easy!"
"Thank you, Grandma!" Lu Haishan was so excited that he immediately knelt down and kowtowed to the old lady.
"Grandma, please rest assured, once I become a major shareholder, I will definitely take good care of you and see you off in your old age!"
"Good, good! Good child, get up!" The old lady smiled with a look of satisfaction.
