Chapter 13: Why bother?
At eleven o'clock in the evening, Wen Shuze stepped back to the Wen family's old mansion in the night.
When he saw the light in the living room, he frowned slightly.
Parents have a regular schedule, and they have already rested at this point in time, is it that the eldest brother is at home?
"Mom, why aren't you sleeping yet?"
Hearing this, Meng Qiu woke up and became sleepy after waiting for so long.
Seeing her son, she hurriedly stood up and took his hand and asked, "Shuze, has your grandfather said anything to you recently?" ”
Different from Meng Qiu's anxiety, Wen Shuze was very calm, he poured himself a glass of warm water and drank it, tonight's department gathering, the vegetable oil and salt ordered by his colleagues were relatively heavy, and he always felt very thirsty.
Wen Shuze also poured a glass of water for Meng Qiu, and instead of answering her words first, he asked her, "Mom, where did you hear what you said?" ”
"You answer me first, has the old man ever looked for you?"
Wen Shuze shook his head, "No, the last time I saw my grandfather was half a month ago." ”
On Friday, the eldest brother went back to the old house but did not eat at home, and the grandfather did not stay at home at night.
Instead, he went back to the house where he was recuperating, and when he came back from work, his grandfather had already returned.
Wen Shuze also guessed that these people were a little unpleasant.
Meng Qiu breathed a sigh of relief after hearing Wen Shuze's answer, maybe the marriage with the Rong family was not true.
It's just that before the dust settles on Rong Yan's marriage, Meng Qiu didn't dare to relax completely.
"I heard some rumors outside today that your grandfather plans to marry the Rong family, and I guess your grandfather wants you to marry Rong Yan."
Wen Shuze drank the water and almost squirted out, and was frightened by his mother's words.
"What are you thinking? How is it possible for me to marry Sister Rongyan? There's no way she's going to look at me! ”
Are you kidding?
"Grandpa wants to marry the Rong family, and he is also the eldest brother and sister Rong Yan, how can it be me?"
Meng Qiu was a little unhappy, "Why are you belittleing yourself like this?" You are the second son of the Wen family, and only she is not worthy of your share. ”
"Your grandfather only loves Wen Jingchu, the daughter-in-law he picked for him must be outstanding, and he can't even look down on the Xu family, let alone the Rong family?"
Wen Shuze frowned and said dissatisfiedly, "Mom, how can you talk like this?" Sister Rongyan is very good, so she can stand out in all her appearance, but I have no characteristics, and I can't just look at my family background. ”
"And grandpa also loves me very much, how can I say that he only feels sorry for my eldest brother? On the contrary, my father doesn't care much about my eldest brother, and I am the luckiest one in the family. ”
Meng Qiu naturally disagreed with his words and didn't want to debate with him, so he suddenly opened the topic, and his tone was much softer, "Son, when are you going to resign?" I can't work in the hospital all the time, I'll ask your dad another day, let you work in the group, maybe you go and talk to Wen Jingchu? ”
I can't count the first time I've heard these words, and Wen Shuze gradually became impatient.
"Can you stop talking about it again? I love working in the hospital, not to mention that I can't work in a group. ”
"Obviously, you and your grandfather have agreed, why do you want to find yourself unhappy?"
Meng Qiu was also emotional, "I'm complaining about you, they are all descendants of the Wen family, why is the family business Wen Jingchu's?"
"If you think it's unfair, why did you agree in the first place?"
Wen Shuze didn't want to talk about this, and he didn't reveal his mother's scars, he really didn't like his mother repeatedly forcing him to work in the group.
Seeing the tears in his mother's eyes, Wen Shuze stabilized his emotions and said in a calm tone.
"Mom, I never thought about fighting with my eldest brother for anything, these should have been his, and my eldest brother wouldn't treat me badly, so don't mention it in the future, okay?"
Meng Qiu was originally just Wen Yunsheng's secretary.
Born in an ordinary working family, she relied on her own efforts to stay in the Wen Group, and then came to Wen Yunsheng's side and became his secretary.
coincided with Wen Yunsheng's divorce from Wen Jingchu's mother, and she got drunk on a business trip, and she had a relationship with Wen Yunsheng.
At first he just wanted to spend money, but luckily she had a child.
In front of Wen Yunsheng, Meng Qiu is always gentle and understanding, which is completely different from his first wife's strong personality, he prefers Meng Qiu's character that is attached to him.
But if she wanted to enter the Wen family, she had to make the old man nod and have to agree to his conditions
In the future, no matter whether she gives birth to a boy or a girl, she will not be allowed to inherit the Wen family's family business, and she can no longer continue to work in the group, so she has to be Mrs. Wen in a proper manner.
This circle has always valued background, like her, who was born in an ordinary family and married into the Wen family before marriage, did not even have a serious wedding.
For so many years, he has been looked down upon.
These people openly respect her as Wen Yunsheng's wife, laugh with her in front of people, but secretly sneer at her.
She didn't want her son to be looked down upon, but her son was not as good as Wen Jingchu everywhere, and he didn't have the heart to compete with Wen Jingchu.
Unlike Meng Qiu, Wen Shuze is very satisfied with the status quo.
Although he could not inherit the Wen family's business, his eldest brother has also given him a lot of real estate, investment and various industries over the years, and the property in his name is enough for him to be rich and prosperous for a lifetime.
He also has no ability, even if the Wen family's business is evenly given to him, he will not be able to keep it.
Why bother?
's mother is too obsessed, and she always feels that her grandfather is unfair to him, but in fact, her grandfather loves him a lot.
It's just that he has his father's special love, and his grandfather pities his eldest brother even more, which is very fair.
Meng Qiu was about to refute his words when he heard footsteps on the other side of the stairs.
She stopped talking in time, and the mother and son turned their heads at the same time.
Wen Yunsheng asked with a calm face, "What are you arguing about when you don't rest late at night?" ”
His eyes were staring at Meng Qiu, a person who had been in the mall for a long time, his eyes were sharp, and a glance made her afraid.
She said that she couldn't sleep at night to get out and breathe, but she ended up arguing with her son here.
In the past few years, she has become more and more restless, and Wen Yunsheng has turned a blind eye before.
At this moment, seeing her look flustered, without the gentleness and tranquility of the past, I felt a little dissatisfied in my heart.
Meng Qiu also quickly adjusted, squeezing out a smile, "It's rare that Shuze is free, just talk to him, he is old and doesn't have a girlfriend, he doesn't want to go on a blind date." ”
Wen Yunsheng turned his head to look at his youngest son, his face softened a lot, "When your eldest brother settles down, you should also consider thinking about lifelong events." ”
Wen Shuze also agreed, "Okay, listen to your arrangement." ”
"Alright, it's not early, let's go up and rest."
After Wen Shuze left, Meng Qiu also followed Wen Yunsheng back to the room.
Even though I wanted to ask him if he knew the old man's plans, I could only suppress this thought.
Fang Cai obviously felt Wen Yunsheng's displeasure, and it would not be beneficial for her to be anxious.
On the spring night, the old mansion returned to calm, but this calm could only last for one night.
On the second day, the husband and wife were equally shocked.
After listening to the housekeeper's words, Wen Yunsheng was furious, and threw the exquisitely made ceramic teacup to the ground, "Does he still have my father in his eyes?" ”
