Chapter 667 Sacrificing Mother-in-Law
Shi Xinyu is here to give Yu Meitong a gift this time, to seal the friendship that has lasted for several years. After so many things, I know who is sincere and who is fake.
Since the Tao family did not invite Master Xinyu, she left after giving the gifts and talking for a while. Even though breaking off the engagement was not good-looking at first, this is the best way to deal with it.
Not long after she left, Zong Shimeng came over and was a little sad to know her current situation: "Her family's business has been sluggish in the past two years and has been going downhill. Then the three brothers also had conflicts after they got married. Her parents still She was enlightened and immediately divided the family between the three brothers. She gave her a generous dowry when she got married, so she didn't give anything during the family separation. "
Hearing this, Yu Meitong couldn't help but sneer: "You say you love this daughter the most, but it turns out that the company doesn't have any share in her. Sure enough, no one else is as good as what she has."
Zong Shimeng felt that she couldn't say that: "When she got married, her parents prepared a dowry of more than 50 million, and all the cash was used to buy a house and stocks. She doesn't know how to do business, and the company's future is uncertain, so she might as well take it. The money is safe and her life is no worse than that of her three brothers."
Hearing this, Lu Jiaxin couldn't help but think of a joke in future generations. They are not afraid that the second generation will be useless, but they are afraid that the second generation will start a business. If you are a loser, just lie down and have enough food and clothing for the rest of your life. If you start a business, you may run out of money within a few years.
After a while, Yu Meitong's mother came over, and Lu Jiaxin and Zong Shimeng stepped aside. Unexpectedly, Mrs. Yu was the only one holding Yu Meitong to talk, while her sister-in-law and younger siblings came to talk to Lu Jiaxin and Zong Shimeng.
Lu Jiaxin had nothing to say to them, so she took a financial magazine and read it. Zong Shimeng started chatting with them tactfully.
Twenty minutes later, Tao Yong came over.
Yu Meitong is not from Star City, so she got married in a hotel. The first stop was the Tao family's old house. When they arrived in the main hall, they saw a man and woman dressed in festive clothes sitting on the sofa. The man looks very similar to Tao Yong. He looks to be in his sixties and has half-white hair. The woman next to him looks to be in her thirties. This is Tao Yong's stepmother Lu Yu'e. As far as she knows, this woman is also in her forties. Yes, I have to say it is well maintained.
The master of ceremonies led the newlyweds to Mr. Tao and Mrs. Tao. As soon as they stood still, someone brought tea. It is a traditional custom for a daughter-in-law to serve tea to her parents-in-law when she enters the house.
Looking at this shrewd-looking woman, Lu Jiaxin sighed in her heart. She felt uncomfortable when she was asked to handle the wedding, and she pretended to be dead during the tea ceremony.
When serving tea to Mr. Tao, Yu Meitong was very cooperative. She knelt down and took the tea, raising her hands to serve it. When it was Lu Yu'e's turn, Yu Meitong raised her tea cup and said softly: "Mother-in-law, don't worry, I will take good care of A Yong in the future. Don't worry if you are under Jiuquan!"
After speaking, sprinkle the tea in front of the mat.
As soon as these words were spoken, the lively living room became so quiet that you could hear a pin drop. The people in the living room stared at the brave bride in stunned silence. Lu Yu'e's face looked as if she had opened a dyeing workshop, and she was about to faint from anger.
Mr. Tao scolded him directly: "Is this how your Yu family teaches your daughter?"
Yu Meitong was not afraid of him and said: "After my mother-in-law died of illness, Ayong went to a boarding school and later studied abroad. He came back and worked in his own company for more than a month before he was forced to leave. At that time, he was like a beggar. I gave him 10 million, and then said arrogantly that I would never give him a penny in the future, and that my family's property also had nothing to do with him.”
“Father, I offer you tea because you raised A Yong to be a grown-up even if you are biased. Who is she, she deserves to be served tea by me.”
Fortunately, her father was ill and did not come, otherwise the Tao family could not do anything to her, and his father would flip her table over first.
Master Tao was so angry that he was shaking all over. He pointed at Tao Yong and said, "If you still recognize me as your father, break up with this woman." Tao Yong stood up, and then pulled Yu Meitong up: "When she was a child, she sowed discord. , I am often scolded by you. For such a femme fatale, it would be very kind of me not to retaliate against her, but she still wants me to have tea with Meitong, where is the shame?"
His brother and half-brother wanted to get the company, so these people tried their best to please and flatter the old man. He started his own business, and the company has never relied on his family until now, so he is not afraid of falling out at all.
Seeing that there was going to be a stalemate, an elder from the Tao family quickly stepped forward to smooth things over: "It's getting late, the bridegroom and the bride should go to the hotel."
If the newlyweds don't go to the hotel to hold the wedding, it will be a disgrace to him and the entire Tao family. Master Tao waved his hand: "Hurry to the hotel."
Seeing that he had no objection, the Tao elders quickly asked the newcomers to go to the hotel. Brother Tao and his wife were particularly relieved. After fighting with Lu Yu'e for so many years, they still had to politely call Aunt Lu on their faces, while Sister Tao still had to create the illusion of harmony between mother-in-law and daughter-in-law. How dare Tao Yong and his wife step on Lu Yu'e's face on the ground. The old man said that after giving his second son a start-up fund, he would not be divided among the family property, and he would not be afraid of falling out.
Lu Jiaxin walked up to Yu Meitong and deliberately raised her voice and said, "Tao Yong, your family is too stingy. Meitong didn't even get a red envelope when serving tea."
When the people around him heard this, they were all silent for a moment. It was really not a big deal to watch the excitement.
Zong Shimeng pulled off Lu Jiaxin's sleeve, and then glanced at her, meaning not to add fuel to the fire, otherwise it would be bad if the wedding was really messed up.
On the way to the hotel, Yu Meitong held Lu Jiaxin's hand and said with red eyes: "Jiaxin, thank you."
If it were her father who would definitely scold her, he would not support her. In fact, she was a little hesitant last night. She felt that it was not good to make life-long events ugly, so she wanted the other party to behave kindly and tolerate it. But she didn't expect that this woman was dressed up and wearing jewelry worth millions, and the limelight would overshadow her as a bride, so she didn't want to endure it anymore.
Lu Jiaxin smiled and said, "Just don't blame me for having bad ideas."
Yu Meitong shook his head and said: "A good person will be bullied by others, and a good horse will be ridden by others. I will put my attitude there today, and no one from the Tao family will dare to provoke me in the future."
Lu Jiaxin smiled and said, "In the future? Who knows whether the Tao family's company will still be there in ten or eight years."
Seeing Tao Yong looking at her, Lu Jiaxin said with a smile: "Don't get me wrong, I won't do anything to the Tao family's company. It's not like I'm full and have nothing to do."
“In the past few years, many established companies in Hong Kong City have gone bankrupt. If Tao's company does not innovate and seek change, it will definitely follow the same old path.”
The issue is not against Tao's company, but the laws of the market. New companies are being created every day, while others are going bankrupt and disappearing.
Tao Yong said nothing. If the old man doesn't decide on the identity of his brother's successor, and if he continues to fight like this, he may go the way of the clan. However, the bankruptcy of Tao's company had no impact on him. Of course, he doesn't want the Tao family to go bankrupt, otherwise the old man will definitely come to him if he has no money.
