"Yes, our ancestor didn't have any backing before, he relied entirely on himself. If the family had power and support, with our ancestor's strength, it would probably be our ancestor, not Shengjun, who would be at the top of the rich list now."
"Strength is certainly important, but with the support of family and hard work, not only will you become wealthy, but those around you will also become wealthy."
"The so-called strong alliance can be divided into strong alliances between individuals, strong alliances between families, and strong alliances between countries. Only through cooperation and win-win results can rapid development be achieved."
"If one is strong and the other is weak, the strong will always be dragged down by the weak. That's how cruel the business world is. Wanwan and Maomao are both juniors and will be the main pillars to take over the family business in the future. It depends on their strength."
"If everyone relies on emotions to succeed in the business world, they will ultimately be hampered by emotions and will not be able to achieve long-term development."
Xu Min was subtly implying that Su Wanwan had no background or strength, that Su Wanwan would drag down the Jiang family, and that only if her daughter married Jiang Shengjun would the Jiang family prosper.
Finally, she added provocatively, "Su Wanwan, do you think what your aunt said makes sense?"
Su Wanwan looked at Xu Min with a gentle expression, but she was not willing to back down.
“That makes perfect sense. I am indeed the pillar of the family’s development, but even with a strong backer, one must have the ability to develop well, right?”
"If you stand on the shoulders of giants instead of striving to become a giant yourself, and one day the giants fall, won't the little yellow men who were standing on the shoulders of giants be the ones who fall the hardest?"
"Even with the strongest backing, there will be times when things go wrong. If we always rely on our backing, I'm afraid it won't be able to ensure the long-term success of our family, right? Aunt Xu, what do you think?"
The two men's back-and-forth banter lingered in Su Suqin's ears.
She naturally didn't want Su Wanwan to have any deep-seated hatred with the Ouyang family.
If that's the case, wouldn't her grandson cause a huge uproar?
The Jiang family cannot be ruined by these two women.
Within the grand mansion, everyone had their own plans and their own ideas.
If she doesn't find a way to appease everyone, who knows what kind of trouble her grandson, who knows absolutely nothing about relationships, will cause.
As they strolled along, they soon arrived at the pavilion of the old house, and Su Suqin quickly changed the subject.
"We've arrived here. Let's have some tea and food first, and then we can chat. I haven't properly entertained you since you came to the old house. Today, I'll do my best to be a good host."
The courtyard was full of bamboo groves, and Su Suqin instructed the servants of the old house to serve pastries and tea.
The four of them started a roundtable discussion again.
Su Suqin spoke first: "Wanwan, since you know what I'm going to say this time, I'll get straight to the point."
"Grandma, please speak."
"This is mainly about the cat's pregnancy. Now that the cat is pregnant and the test results are out, my Jiang family will not fail to take responsibility for the cat. However, there is no such thing as one husband having two wives in this world."
"I've come up with two solutions."
"The first option is for the cat to give birth to a baby, which will take the Jiang family name and be raised by Wanwan."
"No! I will never let my child leave me from a young age," Ouyang Maomao interrupted anxiously.
Su Wanwan smiled faintly: "It's not like I'd be happy to raise your child."
Xu Min then took Ouyang Maomao's hand and said, "No need to rush, let the ancestor finish speaking first."
Su Suqin knew it was normal for young people to be restless and impatient, so she didn't argue with them. She took a sip of tea and continued to discuss the second option.
"The second option is that Wanwan divorces Jiang Shengjun and marries Maomao. I will recognize Wanwan as my goddaughter, and I will give Wanwan everything that Chenjun and Yingning have, fairly and justly."
Ouyang Maomao was indignant again. She burst into tears in front of Su Suqin and Xu Min, and said in a wronged tone, "Grandma, she and Shengjun are divorced. If she still stays by Shengjun's side, how can Shengjun feel at ease being with me?"
Tears welled up in her seemingly gentle almond-shaped eyes, and even though her eyes were red from crying, she didn't raise her hand to wipe them away.
Su Wanwan remembered that she wasn't a crybaby before; her current vulnerability was just a way of letting everyone know how pitiful she was.
"Kitty, don't cry. Our ancestor is reasonable and will stand up for you," Xu Min said, speaking up for her.
Su Wanwan smiled.
Xu Min slammed her hand on the table and yelled at Su Wanwan, "What are you laughing at! If you hadn't kept stopping Jiang Shengjun, if you hadn't interfered in the relationship between Maomao and Shengjun, my daughter would have married Shengjun long ago!"
"We went to the Jiang family to discuss the marriage that day, and it should have been settled. Who knew you would suddenly appear out of nowhere? I really don't know what Shengjun likes about you. You have no future and no background."
Indeed, one second Jiang Shengjun and Ouyang Maomao's families were discussing marriage, and the next second, Jiang Shengjun sent Ah Q with five million to take her to get married.
At that time, she didn't know she was going to marry Jiang Shengjun, and Jiang Shengjun didn't know he was going to marry Su Wanwan.
It was just a coincidence.
Xu Min just said that her grandmother is reasonable and will help Ouyang Maomao make decisions, which makes it sound like her grandmother is unreasonable if she doesn't help her make decisions.
"I wasn't laughing at anything. Rumors say that Aunt Xu is loyal, fame-seeking, and has an impatient personality. Now it seems that she is indeed a bit like that."
Su Wanwan's main style is to argue whenever she can.
Anyway, with Su Suqin around, Xu Min wouldn't dare to do anything to her.
"you……"
Su Suqin stopped her in time, "Alright, Minmin, I know you feel sorry for your daughter, but what did Wanwan do wrong? The fault lies with Shengjun. It was his fickle attitude towards relationships that led to this result."
Su Wanwan felt worried for Jiang Shengjun after hearing this.
Surprisingly, even Su Suqin, Jiang Shengjun's own grandmother, didn't believe he hadn't done those things.
Su Wanwan told Su Suqin firmly, "Grandma, I did nothing wrong, you did nothing wrong, Aunt Xu did nothing wrong in helping her own daughter, Jiang Shengjun did nothing wrong, the one who was wrong was Ouyang Maomao!"
Upon hearing this, Ouyang Maomao's red eyes could no longer shed tears, and instead, she felt even more anger.
"Su Wanwan, what do you mean by that? We used to be so close, and now you're competing with me for a man!"
"Yes, we used to be so close... but now you've successfully shattered that relationship."
"Also, I'm not involved in female competition; I'm just interested in the truth."
Su Wanwan is no longer the little girl who would cry at the slightest harm, nor is she the timid little girl who didn't know how to fight back.
“Grandma, look at her. The test results are already out, and the child is Shengjun’s, but she’s still stubborn. You still want to take her as your goddaughter?”
Su Wanwan stood up and said goodbye to Su Suqin: "I think Grandma has said what she needed to say. Now it's time for me to think. I have to go back."
"Also, Kitty, you should think about what to do when you do the second paternity test. Jiang Shengjun said that this time, he will personally draw the blood."
After saying that, she turned and left, but Su Suqin scolded her, "Come back!"
