Chapter 190 Waiting for Profits
"In order to allow Xie Yuci and her daughter to trace their roots, we should show some sincerity." Zhou Minrou said in a calm tone.
"Grandpa... after all, he still loves aunt." Zhou Minyue's lips curled into a sarcastic arc.
What made Xie Yuci save the Zhou family? The Zhou family, a century-old family in Beijing, needed a woman who relied on hype to save it?
It's ridiculous.
"Your grandfather wants your aunt to come back, so you must respect his decision." Zhou Jiye drank the tea in his hand slowly and reminded Zhou Minyue to be careful with what she said outside.
"I know, Dad. How dare I make Grandpa unhappy?" Zhou Minyue smiled, but there was no warmth in her eyes.
Even if you are unhappy, some things you just have to hold back.
After all, the power of the Zhou family is still in the hands of Zhou Zhenyu.
Zhou Zhenyu gives things to whoever he wants.
But I am unwilling to accept it. After years of preparation, it is all in vain.
"Hey, I went out to play today. Do you know what those noble families in Shangjing said?" Zhou Minyue seemed to remember something interesting and covered her hands to laugh.
Zhou Jiye, Zhou Minrou and Zhou Minxing all looked up at her.
"I told them that Xie Yuci was my sister and that my sister was coming back. They...all asked me with a smile if I was the fake daughter from Seoul."
"They even reminded us to do a paternity test. Don't tell me it's another fake daughter. After all, these people are professionals... Hahahaha, how can they be so funny?"
Zhou Minyue looked like she was laughing so hard that she couldn't breathe.
Zhou Jiye frowned: "Did they really say that?"
"Really? They even said Xie Yuci hooked up with a big shot. You know what happened with the Medical Association? Several professors came out to support Xie Yuci. This is no secret in their circle."
"It's not easy for Xie Yuci to reach the position he is in today."
"Everyone in Shangjing knows that Xie Yuci relied on the protection of several bigwigs to bring her parents to Shangjing."
Zhou Minyue spoke sarcastically.
"Okay, the old man has to make the decision on this matter. We youngsters just need to be obedient and do as he says." Zhou Jiye picked up the teacup in his hand and spoke meaningfully.
It was her ability that allowed the big guys on the Xie and Ci Neng list to return to Shangjing with their families.
And this ability will not disappear because of a bad reputation.
Now that everyone has arrived in Shangjing, they have no choice but to deal with it.
"By the way, we met the young master of the Jiang family at our eldest sister's place today." Zhou Jiye reminded her as he remembered something.
"Which young master of the Jiang family?" When Zhou Minrou heard the Jiang family, she raised her eyes instantly with a dull expression.
"Jiang Shiyun, the troublemaker of the Jiang family!" Zhou Minxing said with a frown.
"They found Zhou Lixue so quickly?" Zhou Minrou asked in surprise.
The Jiang family is different from the Zhou family.
The Zhou family is a merchant family that entered the government, took root and flourished, and became so prosperous today.
The Jiang family is a military family. From the beginning, their power was unclear, both overt and covert. Today, many years later, they seem unremarkable on the surface, just an ordinary third-generation red family, but the power network behind them is simply not comparable to that of the Zhou family.
The more low-key the noble families in Shangjing are, the bigger the trouble will be.
This is also one of the reasons why those people in the Jiang family never look at the Zhou family in the eye.
"It is said that Xie Yuci was transferred to Beijing and was in the same military district as Jiang Shiyun..." Zhou Minxing said.
"Tsk... Do you believe that there are such coincidences in the world?" Zhou Minyue covered her mouth and laughed again.
"..."
"Zhou Lixue doesn't fight or compete, and the Jiang family won't support a piece of mud. But Xie Yuci is different. This woman is ambitious. The Jiang family is willing to give her a push. Xie Yuci will soon be able to gain a firm foothold in Shangjing."
"Just watch if you don't believe me."
Zhou Minyue spoke confidently, and then she gestured: "Within a month, Xie Yuci will definitely make a name for herself in Shangjing. By then, Grandpa will pay even more attention to Xie Yuci."
"Then what should we do?" Zhou Minxing frowned.
"That's a good thing, isn't it? Grandpa wants her to come back and save the Zhou family. Let's just keep what we have and wait and see what happens."
"If they have the ability and are willing to contribute, we will also benefit, right? The stronger the Zhou family becomes, the bigger our share will be. Grandpa is an old fox who favors sons over daughters. How can he give everything to Xie Yuci and his mother? When the time comes, we will serve this cousin well and let her support our Zhou family. We will then wait for the money and benefits to be divided."
"If she doesn't have this ability, or is simply unwilling to help the Zhou family, do you think Grandpa will forgive her?"
Zhou Minyue stroked the cat in her arms with a meaningful smile.
Zhou Jiye and the others understood immediately.
Zhou Zhenyu still had Zhou Lixue's influence in his heart, but this influence was not enough to change anything.
Simply put, Zhou Zhenyu’s first priority is the Zhou family, and the Zhou family must be handed over to Zhou Jieye.
The outcome has already been determined, so why should they fight? It is better to pretend to be cowardly, timid, sweet-mouthed but cruel-hearted, which is the philosophy of human nature.
They didn't argue with Zhou Lixue and her daughter about this matter.
……
When Jiang Shiyun returned to the army, he knew that Xie Yuci might be his cousin. He could not control his emotions and hurriedly called home to verify the matter.
It was Jiang Shiyun's mother who answered the phone. When she heard Jiang Shiyun asking about this, she was also confused: "Xie Yuci's surname is Xie, how could she be your cousin? There is no relative with the surname Xie in our family..."
"But what happened when I met the Zhou family today?" Jiang Shiyun knew that there would be no such good thing, and he immediately said disappointedly.
"That Zhou family member?" Jiang Shiyun's mother was confused again.
"It can also be that Zhou family, that ungrateful Zhou family member of my aunt's family!" Jiang Shiyun said speechlessly.
"Oh... I remember now." Jiang Shiyun's mother reacted quickly.
"Today, I went back with Xie Yuci to meet her parents and the Zhou family. They said Xie Yuci's mother was their great aunt, the daughter of our great aunt. My great aunt's daughter even recognized me and asked if I was Jiang Xueming's son. Isn't my father Jiang Xueming? How could they mistake me for someone else?"
"Wait, let me think about it...Xueming, Xueming, do you still remember your cousin's name?" Jiang Shiyun's mother suddenly shouted to the people beside her.
"Zhou Lixue!" Jiang Xueming was holding the newspaper and saw her asking about his cousin, and he spit out three words without hesitation.
He has many cousins, but only one of them is truly related by blood.
"Yes, yes, Zhou Lixue. What was the last name of the husband Zhou Lixue married?" Jiang Shiyun's mother asked again.
"I don't remember." Jiang Shiyun was annoyed when he heard this.
Some disgust has become a functional reaction.
In the minds of the Jiang family, Zhou Lixue had been "out of touch" with the Jiang family for many years because she got married, and that man was the culprit.
The Jiang family was heartbroken after their initial persuasion failed.
