Chapter 216 Missed and Frustrated
I heard that the thresher and windmill, two treasures of the autumn harvest, were made by Xu Zhichun. How could Mr. Zeng not be angry?
Making money is one aspect, and on the other hand, this matter is strongly supported by Lord Lu, which is equivalent to getting close to Lord Lu. This is a benefit that cannot be bought with money.
Mrs. Xu had such a close relationship with his daughter that if his daughter had any regard for family ties in her heart, she would have asked Mrs. Xu to give him the drawings of the thresher and windmill and cooperate with their Zeng family instead of the Qin family.
So what if the Qin family is richer than their Zeng family?
Isn't it just a matter of investing money and manpower? The Zeng family can still do it.
She must have said nothing.
Mr. Zeng was very upset and said to Mrs. Zeng with a sullen face, "Send someone to call Xiaoyan back."
Mr. Zeng did not notice Mrs. Zeng's uncomfortable expression and reaction.
Mrs. Zeng was so depressed that she didn't know what to do.
She never thought that this concubine's daughter was of any use. What about the ice jelly and tomatoes? Since she was unwilling to stand by her own family, she was not worthy of being a member of the Zeng family. She should be kicked out. Sooner or later, she would regret how difficult her life would be without the support of her natal family.
Mrs. Zeng even had a dream that one day Zeng Xiaoyan would not be able to live anymore, would regret it, and would come back crying and kneel down to beg her for forgiveness.
Who would have thought that there would be such a sudden turn of events that she would actually go to ask Zeng Xiaoyan for help?
She never imagined that such a short time had passed and Xu Zhichun had come up with something again.
How could Zeng Xiaoyan, that useless and worthless concubine, have such good luck?
Just tell me whether it’s infuriating or not!
But no matter how angry she was, the matter was done and Mrs. Zeng didn't want to lose face.
Mrs. Zeng tried to persuade with a smile, "Master, why don't you just forget it? Even if we call Xiaoyan back now, it won't change the facts. The threshing machine and windmill can no longer be handed over to the Zeng family. Since that damn girl is so hard-hearted and cold-hearted, why should we beg her? Even without the threshing machine and windmill, won't our Zeng family's business still be doing well? Mingguan is becoming more and more stable and capable. Our Zeng family's business will definitely get better and better."
"Then we have to ask her to come back! I want to ask her if she still has me as her father and the Zeng family in her eyes. She often forgets her own last name!"
"This ungrateful bastard!"
"She's an ungrateful person to begin with. Why should we beg her like this? We have a long way to go. We'll just have to wait and see. One day, she'll learn her lesson."
"I can't wait until the future. I want to teach her a lesson now."
Mrs. Zeng had no choice but to agree.
Nanny Fang went to call Zeng Xiaoyan, but Zeng Xiaoyan refused.
"Didn't Madam Zeng disown me? I won't go to your Zeng family."
Nanny Fang couldn't help but raise her voice, "Third Miss——"
"Mammy, think it over before you speak. I still have the written document. Don't force me to make it public. That would be embarrassing for everyone, wouldn't it?"
Want to blackmail her into believing she's unfilial? Go ahead and try it yourself.
Nanny Fang was at a loss as Liang Mingliang and Aunt Zhu'er were watching closely, and she couldn't ask anyone to take Zeng Xiaoyan away by force.
When Nanny Fang went back and told Mrs. Zeng about this, she was furious.
"The villain succeeds!"
Mrs. Zeng thought quickly and did not go to look for Zeng Xiaoyan again, but called Zeng Xiaojuan back.
"The third girl must still hate us in her heart. She refused to come back no matter what. I had no choice but to call the second girl back. The two sisters are good friends. Now the second girl has also settled in Liangjia Village. Master can talk to the second girl if he has anything to say."
Zeng Xiaojuan's face was pale, her hands tightly clutching her skirt, and she stood there stiffly.
Mr. Zeng became more and more angry, and his face gradually turned darker.
He was angry with Zeng Xiaoyan and even more disgusted with Zeng Xiaojuan.
He was especially disgusted when he thought about how Zeng Xiaojuan divorced Lou Er without even saying a word, and how after the divorce Lou Er came to his house like a scoundrel and extorted a sum of money from him.
"What's the point of calling her here? She's just a piece of trash."
Zeng Xiaojuan's face turned even paler and she lowered her head.
Madam Zeng finally felt relieved and smiled virtuously, "Master, don't get angry. After all, she has a good relationship with the third girl, and I heard she has a very good relationship with Madam Xu as well. Madam Xu also played a big role in her divorce!"
She also had a good relationship with the Xu family, but she also did not inform her family about the threshing machine and windmill, causing him to miss out on such a great opportunity to gain both fame and fortune and to establish a relationship with County Magistrate Lu.
Master Zeng slapped Zeng Xiaojuan in the face and cursed, "You are all ungrateful and disloyal people!"
Zeng Xiaojuan screamed and covered her face, her eyes gradually turning red.
Madam Zeng, stirring the fire nearby, sneered, "Master, don't be angry. It's not worth it to get too angry. Now that you've seen their true faces, it's better to just consider them dead. They're useless to you anyway."
Master Zeng also sneered: "That's right, a dog knows to wag its tail at its owner. They? They're not even as good as dogs."
"Listen carefully," Master Zeng said sternly, "Remember this carefully. You are members of the Zeng family. If you don't support the Zeng family, who else can you support? If you have any good things in the future, report back to me immediately. Do you understand?"
Zeng Xiaojuan curled the corners of her lips, and her drooping eyebrows were full of mockery.
Mr. Zeng snorted and walked away.
Madam Zeng smiled and said calmly, "Send her out."
Zeng Xiaojuan turned around silently.
Nanny Fang said sarcastically, "Second Miss is leaving just like that? She didn't even bother to bow and say goodbye to Madam? Where have you learned any manners, Second Miss?"
Zeng Xiaojuan was furious, but she didn't want to get involved, so she just endured it. She turned around and knelt down to bow to Madam Zeng.
Madam Zeng scoffed contemptuously, "Do you remember what Master said just now? If you have any good things in the future, please remember to come back and tell me first, and fight for the Zeng family first. Don't be an ungrateful person anymore. Otherwise, even if Master forgives you, I won't forgive you."
Mrs. Zeng felt refreshed. She felt that she had found a way to control Zeng Xiaoyan.
Zeng Xiaoyan eventually learned that Zeng Xiaojuan had been called back to the Zeng family. Zeng Xiaoyan never hesitated to speculate about her scumbag father and stepmother with the greatest malice. Under her relentless questioning, Zeng Xiaojuan, who was always honest, could not bear it and told everything.
Zeng Xiaoyan was disgusted to death.
"Mrs. Zeng has really lost all respect for her dignity."
"Sister, why don't you just cut off all ties with them? Why keep them disgusting? I don't think Brother Yang Ming would use this to get close to the Zeng family. I'm here, I'll support you."
"Sister, please think about Qiao'er."
Although Zeng Xiaojuan is weak and timid, she is a strong mother. Secondly, she hangs out with Xu Zhichun, Zeng Xiaoyan, and Aunt Zhuer all day long, and has been influenced by them to some extent, so she is very moved.
So Zeng Xiaoyan accompanied her to Zeng's house.
Darlings, please give me a monthly ticket.
