Chapter 365: Repentance
The store had no customers and had been in a state of loss. Wang's mother opened the store secretly with her natal family without telling her family. Recently, Wang's father needed money and asked Wang's mother for it. After Wang's mother couldn't give it to him, she told the truth under pressure.
Wang's father was so angry that he ignored her for several days and took back the financial power of the family. Wang's mother had no choice but to call Wang Qiong. Unexpectedly, she actually got Wang Qiong back.
The Queen Mother said anxiously, "Please speak to your father for me."
Wang Qiong was speechless: "Can this be solved by just saying nice things?"
"I don't want the store to lose money either. How about this? Can you steal some of the brine from your store and give it to us?" After hearing her mother's suggestion, Wang Qiong sternly refused: "Mom, this is illegal. Do you want me to go to jail?"
"I just asked you to take out some brine, and you're breaking the law. You also have shares in it, and it's your shop. Why can't you take it? You just hate your mother and think she's incompetent. You won't even help with this little favor." When Wang's mother saw that Wang Qiong disagreed, she cried and said some heartless words, and hit Wang Qiong with her back.
"That's someone else's secret recipe. Otherwise, why can they make it but you can't? Stealing the secret recipe is illegal." Wang Qiong explained patiently.
"What secret recipe? You just don't want to help your mother. You just want to watch her die." Wang's mother beat Wang Qiong with more and more force, her palms hitting Wang Qiong so hard that it hurt. Wang Qiong didn't dodge and just let Wang's mother beat her.
Grandpa Wang listened for a long time, wondering what nonsense the Queen Mother was saying. When he heard the slapping sound, he immediately went downstairs and saw the Queen Mother beating Wang Qiong. He shouted, "What are you doing? Who allowed you to hit my granddaughter?"
"She is your granddaughter, but she is my daughter. People say that daughters are extroverted, and it is true. She doesn't help her family members even though she has the ability, but helps outsiders." Mother Wang complained to Wang Qiong.
"It's your own problem. Don't blame Wang Qiong. Do you think I didn't hear it upstairs? What would happen to her if she stole the brine? You let your daughter, who is so old, do such sneaky things. What kind of mother are you? Fortunately, I raised Wang Qiong. Otherwise, if I let you raise her, what kind of person would you let her become?" The Wang family is also a big family. Although their political career is not as glorious as the other sons who joined the army, they are well taken care of, which is not bad.
If the daughter of such a family was taught to be the way Wang Mu described her, then what would their family's reputation be? Grandpa Wang's hands were shaking with anger. Wang Qiong saw that Grandpa was not feeling well, so she immediately pushed Wang Mu away and ran over to support Grandpa, "Grandpa, are you okay?"
"Grandpa is fine."
Suddenly, Wang Qiong pushed Wang's mother aside and she fell onto the sofa on the other side. Looking at the grandfather and grandson who were so loving and filial, she was furious. "I know you just despise me for being uneducated and having a bad temper, but I'm doing this for this family. The money has already been spent. If we don't find a way, we won't get a single cent back. Just steal a little bit, just a little bit, so that our family can earn back the money we invested. Isn't that enough?"
Grandpa Wang didn't expect that Mother Wang had not given up the idea of stealing the brine. He felt disappointed, shook his head, said nothing, and pulled Wang Qiong upstairs.
Grandpa Wang closed the study door, sat down, and said to Wang Qiong, "You were right not to agree. You did the right thing."
"Grandpa, I also think I'm not wrong, but when my mother cried like that, I felt like I was wrong too." Wang Qiong was a little confused.
Grandpa Wang felt sorry for Wang Qiong for being so attached to such a mother, and consoled her: "Good child, you are not wrong. You are right about this matter. It is your mother's fault."
"Then why did my mother do this?" Wang Qiong asked.
"Different family environments naturally lead to different personalities. It's not your mother's fault, but if she hadn't grown up in that kind of family, she wouldn't have had this kind of personality." Grandpa Wang explained, "It's a pity that your mother didn't listen to advice and insisted on doing whatever she wanted."
"A little over ten thousand isn't a lot, but I didn't expect my mom to be so daring as to cooperate with her family." Wang Qiong knew her family's character perfectly well. She'd run a braised meat shop before, and she knew that she didn't need that much money. A few thousand was more than enough. This time, she was afraid her mother had been ripped off again by her family. But now that she was back, she couldn't let this go so easily. Otherwise, she'd think her family had been taken advantage of, cheated once, spent all their money, and were still thinking about a second time.
Wang Qiong has made up her mind, and this time she will not give up.
After being comforted by her grandfather, she went to take care of the company's affairs. She would deal with those things first, and then concentrate on solving her own family affairs. She kept work and family very separate and would not delay her work because of her family.
…
The next day, Ye Qian took He Jun to sign a contract with Boss Xue, and they started shooting a commercial three days later. Whether as a student in the directing department or He Jun's temporary agent, Ye Qian would not miss such an opportunity at the school, and asked the teacher to select a few classmates to study with her.
It was a small commercial that took three days to shoot.
Everyone is very satisfied with the results this time. We just need to wait for the film to come out and schedule it for TV broadcast.
The commercial here had just been finished, and Wang Qiong came back with her documents and the scars on her face.
When Wang Qiong handed the ID to Ye Qian, Ye Qian asked, "What's wrong with your face? You shouldn't get into a fight just to get an ID, right?"
Wang Qiong smiled and shook her head: "No."
Although this person was injured, he was obviously in a good mood, which made Ye Qian even more puzzled. "Do you mind if I ask the reason? If you can't tell me, then don't tell me."
Wang Qiong thought about it and realized that Ye Qian and Fu Shan knew about her family's affairs, so she told them what had happened. It started from the time when her mother was cheated of money by her natal family and made trouble for her at home, until later she and Wang's father collaborated to stage a play to deceive Wang's mother.
First, Wang's father said that Wang's mother was devoted to the Wang family, so she should go back. He then filed for divorce and sent Wang's mother back to her parents' home. But her parents' home didn't really care about her. After Wang's mother went back, her family members were very disliked by her. They kept harassing her for a few days. When they heard that Wang's mother and Wang's father were going to divorce, they angrily sent them back and told Wang's father about the previous money scam. Wang's mother fainted on the spot. She was devoted to her parents' home, but she didn't expect her parents to treat her like this.
After she fainted, a passerby took her to the hospital. After waking up, Wang's mother regretted what she had done and promised Wang's father that she would never do it again. She also severed ties with her natal family. In fact, her natal parents had died long ago, and her natal family only consisted of the eldest brother and his wife. It didn't matter if she had to sever ties.
This matter was brought up by Wang's mother herself, and Wang Qiong mediated and agreed to accept it temporarily. If she changed, it would be fine, but if she didn't, they would divorce immediately.
