Seeing Lu Feng's reaction, the eldest sister-in-law and her group remained calm. They turned to look at Jiang Xiaoyan, knowing that with their own family present, he had no choice but to agree.
As for Jiang Xiaoyan, she has always been timid. With her two older brothers talking to her and her parents giving orders, how could she not listen?
"Alright, alright, this matter is over." Song Xuemei waved her hand and began to smooth things over, saying, "Let outsiders laugh at us, but we're family, even if we're broken, we're still connected by blood. Lu Feng, don't say anything in anger. After the New Year, make arrangements for your two older brothers. I always thought you were destined for greatness, which is why I married Xiaoyan to you."
"Oh my, so you're saying you have a discerning eye?" Lu Feng sneered, showing no mercy, "I remember you caused quite a scene at my house trying to get the bride price. If I didn't know a few buddies in the underworld, you probably would have crippled me."
"It's all in the past, let's not talk about it anymore." Jiang Ergou also walked over and said, "Let's call it even, let's call it even!"
"No way! You guys suffer a loss and you keep harping on it, but I suffer a loss and you just wipe the slate clean? That's not fair! Also, don't ask me to arrange jobs for them. It's a waste of money to put these idiots anywhere." Lu Feng said without any mercy, "I'm not playing with you anymore."
"Xiaoyan, look at how Lu Feng talks! Those words hurt my pride. It won't be resolved without five hundred." Jiang Fuqiao said to Jiang Xiaoyan, "Speak up! Can't you even control your own man?"
Song Xuemei walked over and poked her, whispering, "Don't side with outsiders!"
Jiang Xiaoyan looked up at her family, her eyes red. She had no more tears left to shed. She bit her lip and hesitated for a while before saying, "Let's go back."
After saying that, he picked Duoduo up.
"What's the deal with this job? Say something!" the sister-in-law chimed in. "You thought you were so great, so rich? Is this all you've got? You've come here to show off? Jiang Xiaoyan, are you even human? Your whole family is worthless, ungrateful scum!"
"Who knows what's going on? Maybe Xie Heng mistook someone else for someone else. How could he have made it so fast in such a short time? Even winning the lottery wouldn't happen this quickly." Second Sister-in-law chimed in, "If they don't dare to make arrangements, it's probably all a scam from the start, isn't it?"
"Don't say it's fake. Even if it's true, what's so great about it? It's not like you're an official or in power!" Song Xuemei shouted angrily. "What's the use? You're just a lapdog when you see officials."
"Exactly, they're only tough at home. They're arrogant towards us, but what are they going to do when they go out and act tough?"
"He's someone important in our eyes, but in other people's eyes, he's not even as good as a dog."
Lu Feng ignored these words and whispered to Jiang Xiaoyan, "Are you sure you want to go back for the New Year? Don't come looking for them again after the New Year, I won't arrange any jobs for them."
"Let's go home for the New Year, I'm tired!"
The reason why Jiang Fuqiao and his group could curse at her at will was simply because they had control over Jiang Xiaoyan. They knew in their hearts that Jiang Xiaoyan was weak-willed, and even if they cursed her, she would still do things for them a few days later.
A large crowd had already gathered at the gate; half the people on the street had come. Some said the Jiang family was no good, while others cursed Lu Feng, saying he had become rich and was now acting like a big shot.
"Excuse me! Could you please move aside?" a voice came from behind.
"Is this Mr. Lu's wife's house? Or the Jiang family's house? Come on, make way."
Upon hearing this, everyone turned around and saw a middle-aged man dressed like a leader, followed by three or four people. They all made way for him.
"President Lu? What's going on? It's so lively here, this town is really full of New Year's spirit!" Zhu Zhiqiang walked up with a happy face and said, "It's obviously a very happy occasion, congratulations!"
Lu Feng looked at him coldly and said, "Our family is fighting, what's there to congratulate us on?"
"Uh..." Zhu Zhiqiang looked around again. It seemed that the people gathered outside the door were indeed watching the commotion. Li Yong and his men walked over, feeling somewhat awkward.
"Who are you? What are you doing here?" Jiang Fuqiao asked.
"This is our county magistrate, County Magistrate Li. This is Director Zhao of the Industry and Commerce Bureau, and Director Sun of the Power Grid Administration Bureau..."
Seeing Lu Feng's embarrassment, Li Yong quickly extended both hands apologetically, saying, "We didn't mean anything by it, we just wanted to come and take a look around, to familiarize ourselves with the place. Mr. Lu, please don't overthink it, we didn't mean to suspect you!"
County Magistrate?
In everyone's eyes, he was a high and mighty figure. It was too difficult to see him on ordinary days. Everyone who saw him had to be polite to him. In everyone's eyes, he was a local tyrant!
However, this invincible being was now holding Lu Feng's hand and apologizing profusely, with a smile on his face, as if he was afraid of offending Lu Feng.
This left everyone present completely bewildered.
Even if he's rich, he's just a businessman. Shouldn't Lu Feng be the one currying favor with him?
Jiang Fuqiao and Jiang Fulu were stunned. They understood that Lu Feng was no longer someone they could reach. This man was like a dragon entering the sea, unstoppable!
Even Jiang Xiaoyan!
With his current wealth and influence, countless young girls would be lining up for him if he wanted to.
The sister-in-law was filled with regret and wished she could slap herself. If she had spoken well to Lu Feng from the beginning, rising to prominence would have been a piece of cake.
The couple didn't reveal their identities when they came back, just in case things got too awkward!
Even if she had admitted her mistake just now, she might have been able to salvage the situation. But she felt that Jiang Xiaoyan could win over Lu Feng. As for Jiang Xiaoyan, wasn't she just following her family's lead?
However, it now appears that Lu Feng's strength is beyond Jiang Xiaoyan's control.
Lu Feng exchanged a few polite words with Zhu Zhiqiang, put in a good word for him, and agreed that the project would be finalized after the annual meeting, and that they would discuss the details then. He entrusted the matter to Zhu Zhiqiang.
