"On the fourteenth day, did you have a quarrel in the kitchen?"
"Fight? With whom? Didn't big brother and his friends just come back from Beixian on the 14th?"
Zhu Chuang, "When you lie, the end of your right eyebrow can't help but twitch outwards."
Zhu Yaowu: His son remained silent and Zhu Chuang did not urge him. He just boiled water and made tea. He had plenty of time anyway.
Zhu Yaowu didn't want to get too excited, because he knew that his father was using a tactic and was waging a psychological warfare.
As long as he can hold on, he will win.
Zhu Chuang had finished his second cup of tea when the door of the study was pushed open and Kong Siya walked in.
It was rare for her to look serious. "Where's Wei Yue? There were only three of you at the meal just now. Did you have a fight with Wei Yue?"
Her eyes fell on her son's face.
Zhu Yaowu: Kong Siya sat down next to her husband and asked, "What a shame! You used to fight with outsiders, but now you fight at home."
"I'll call Wei Yue." Zhu Chuang cooperated with his wife and went to grab the phone.
Zhu Yaowu knew that this was a double act between the two of them, but there was nothing he could do. "I said, I said, don't let him come back."
Sooner or later my family will know about this.
Zhu Yaowu told the story.
"You were beaten today because you persuaded Wei Yue?"
"yes."
Zhu Chuangchi said, "Nonsense. They have grown wings and hide things from their families."
The two sons were impartial and both were scolded.
Zhu Yaowu was still feeling aggrieved, "Dad, if it weren't for the letter from my sister-in-law's new parents, we wouldn't have known about it. Anyway, the third child wouldn't come back even if you called now."
Kong Siya was a calm person. She tried to calm her angry husband, "Yao Wu is right. The third child has a stubborn temper. He is determined to do something and cannot be stopped."
Zhu Chuang said angrily, "I'll take care of this matter, you can go back."
Zhu Yaowu went out obediently.
It wasn't him who reported it, it was his family who found out, so it's not his fault.
He shrugged at Zhu Heping and Zhu Weiming outside and went upstairs.
In the study, Kong Siya walked to her husband and patted him on the back. "Being angry won't solve the problem. What do you think about this?"
"Ji Ke has ulterior motives. She is Xiaoling's sister, and I never make direct comments about her. Now she is dealing in antiques and dragging Wei Yue into this. If it weren't for those things that happened in the past, I would have thought that she just wanted to make some money." Zhu Chuang said it very clearly, Ji Ke had ulterior motives.
Kong Siya didn't want to think too badly of people, but she thought about Ji Ke's personality and said, "You know a lot of people. You cut off the third brother's path and made him retreat when he saw the difficulty."
Zhu Chuang had the same idea, "Let's keep it a secret from my parents for now."
"Xiaoling must be feeling guilty. Let's just pretend we don't know about this. I'll go tell Yaowu later."
His wife was very careful in her work and had thought of things that Zhu Chuang could not have imagined. The unhappiness on his face faded away.
As for his son, he has just entered society, so if he wants to cut off his career, he can do it by just making a few phone calls.
Zhu Wei Yue is not stupid. After a few times, he understood what was going on.
Ji Ke said, "Brother Zhu San, is it my sister who disagrees behind your back? Otherwise, let me help you persuade her."
She pointed at the pieces of porcelain on the table and said, "I want to help you resell them, but you have shown them to people in your circle, and no one would dare to buy them even if I took them out."
At this point, she laughed again, "I didn't realize it before, but now I realize that your Zhu family is really capable. With just one sentence, you have blocked our way to business."
Zhu Weiyue said coldly, "I'll go back and talk to you, you put the porcelain bottle away."
Ji Ke watched the person leave, her eyes turned and a meaningful smile appeared on her lips.
When Ji Ling saw Ji Ke, she didn't recognize him for a moment, mainly because Ji Ling had changed so much. She was dressed fashionably and trendily, with big wavy Hong Kong-style curls, and her hair looked fluffy. She wore blue jeans with a red tights, and with her fiery red lips, she could easily attract people's attention wherever she went.
Ji Ke was also looking at Ji Ling at the same time.
Ji Ling works in the Ministry of Finance. When Ji Ling heard this, her eyes turned red with jealousy. She knew that no matter how hard she tried, she could never surpass Ji Ling.
Fortunately, at the darkest moment in her life, there was a sudden turn for the better.
Now looking at Ji Ling, Ji Ke straightened her waist a little. Ji Ling was still dressed in ordinary clothes and was thrown behind her.
In an instant, Ji Ke felt an infinite sense of accomplishment in his heart.
When she spoke, her voice sounded like she was giving alms, "Sis, because of you, Zhu Weiyue's batch of goods is going to be a big loss. Now, except for me, no one can help him."
Ji Ling thought that Ji Ke was still limited in his abilities. Before he did anything, his tail was already raised.
On the surface, she replied calmly, "It's none of my business."
Ji Ke: She widened her eyes, "Aren't you worried?"
"Why should I worry? As long as I'm involved with you, it means I'm at odds with Ji Ling."
Ji Ke was stunned for a moment, then laughed, "You finally stopped pretending?"
"I've always been like this, why am I pretending?"
"You acted virtuous in your husband's house, what about now?"
Ji Ling scratched her ears, "Ji Ke, when I heard that Zhu Weiyue and you were going to work together to deal in antiques, I really thought highly of you. After all, the little girl who always wanted to compete with me has grown up and has a career. But now I see you."
She curled her lips, "It's still a piece of mud that can't be helped."
Ji Ke sneered, "Tell me, whatever vicious words you want to say, I'll listen to them. Do you really think that you can save Zhu Weiyue by provoking me like this? You don't know how much money he bet, do you?"
"This number." Ji Ke crossed his index fingers, "One hundred thousand."
Ji Ling thought that it was no wonder that Zhu Weiyue was determined to deal in antiques with Ji Ke. It was indeed very tempting.
Ji Jian saw that she didn't respond, thinking she was shocked. "One hundred thousand is just one piece. He has four pieces in his hands. I heard that he borrowed a lot of money from outside. I advised him not to do such a big thing, but he didn't listen. Now he has the goods in his hands and there are so many foreign debts. I don't know what he will do next."
Ji Ke's breath was due to his worry for Zhu Weiyue, but he looked at Ji Ling with a gloating look, "Do you think the Zhu family will be angry with you if they know that Zhu Weiyue entered the antique circle because of me?"
"So it's you." Ji Ling finally understood, "You went through so much trouble, and this is what you want to say in the end. It's not that the Zhu family stopped us, but you have been setting a trap for Zhu Weiyue. But you will be disappointed. Every grievance has its perpetrator, and my in-laws will find you to settle the score."
"Are you done?" Ji Ling asked, "Don't delay my return home after you finish your conversation."
