Jiang Yue had heard Lu Yu say many sweet words before, but at this moment, Lu Yu's tone was more magnetic than many of his previous sweet words, making her heart soften.
"good."
Hearing Jiang Yue's words, Lu Yu's tone also revealed his joy.
"Okay, honey, everything's arranged in the family compound. You can just bring the kids over."
"Um."
Mr. An's face looked very unpleasant.
He had received a message from his father and rushed home. Unexpectedly, his brother, with the help of their grandfather, had both him and their father placed under house arrest.
Although the food and supplies were the same as before, none of his men, except for a few servants, were able to get close to the main building.
"Let me out, you bastard..."
Old Smith was throwing things around and cursing Smith.
But he broke a lot of things, and his eldest son didn't come over.
"dad."
Old Smith's expression softened when he saw his youngest son.
"Dad, don't upset yourself. Grandpa hasn't found any evidence either..."
Moreover, when they made their move, they used other people, some of whom were related to the eldest brother. Even if they claimed that their father and he did it, there was no evidence.
In short, it is capable of both offense and defense.
Hearing his son's words, old Smith felt much better.
The younger son is right. The old father favors his eldest son and has always protected him. The eldest son should have inherited the family property, but instead, the younger son inherited it instead. Not only is the father dissatisfied, but his younger brothers are also dissatisfied.
He wasn't the only one who intervened; his close brothers did too.
A father can't very well punish all his sons.
The mistress, Ms. An, walked in.
Seeing the father and son sitting there, Ms. Ann swayed her hips and walked over to old Smith.
"Honey."
Old Smith smiled when he saw his mistress.
"I'm sorry you've suffered."
These past few days, the two of them have been detained here. The food is alright, but this is something that has never happened before.
"We're a family together, it's not so bad..."
Ms. An naturally knew how to please a man. These past few days, she hadn't dressed as extravagantly as before. She had become extremely skilled at using her "white lotus" tactics, which made Old Smith feel even more guilty towards her.
"An, I'm the one who made you suffer."
Before the marriage, Old Smith's marriage to his wife was arranged. Before the marriage, he had many lovers. After the marriage and the birth of his eldest son, he met Ms. Anne, whom he believed to have found true love.
Now that his father is old, he is still unwilling to pass the throne to him, instead giving it to his eldest son. Although the eldest son is capable, he can't surpass his father's abilities.
Over the past ten years or so, who hasn't secretly laughed at him?
The father and brother were furious, while Smith was now in the family hospital.
"grandfather."
Looking at the old man lying in the hospital bed, he felt a pang of sadness.
In the past two or three years, he has been busy with family matters and has spent much less time with his grandfather than before. Even when he wanted to stay home with his grandfather, his grandfather would tell him to go back to work.
Seeing his somewhat sad grandson, the old patriarch smiled.
"I'm perfectly fine, why are you acting like this?"
In fact, he was well aware of what his sons and grandsons had done. He was using their schemes against them, deliberately outmaneuvering them so that his eldest grandson could inherit everything from him.
"thank you."
Smith understood perfectly what his grandfather meant.
