“Forget it. Bickering with people like her will lower our status and make us look like her. Moreover, her character isn’t bad. She was just used by other people. If you really want to settle the score, you’d better look for the people behind her.” Chen Meng’er drank a mouthful of fresh soy milk.
The soybean that was used to grind the soy milk was brought over by her. It was a soybean produced in her space. Some time ago, she heard her grandfather, Elder Qu, mention that her grandmother liked to drink soy milk. She remembered that there were several sacks of soybean in her space, so she brought some back for her.
Elder Qu saw that Chen Meng’er liked to drink soy milk and said, “How is it? Does this soy milk taste good?”
“Yes, it’s not bad.” Chen Meng’er nodded.
“This is made from the soybean that you gave me. I don’t know why, but your grandmother and I both feel that the soybean milk made from the soybean that you asked to use tastes better than the ordinary soybean milk. Every morning, your grandmother has to drink half a cup more.” Elder Qu also felt that it was strange. He even compared the taste of the two types of soy milk and concluded the milk made from the soybean his granddaughter gave him was much better.
Chen Meng’er really didn’t know how to answer her grandfather.
Just as she was thinking about how to smooth things over, her brother curled his lips and said, “Grandpa, I don’t think the taste of this soy milk is different from before. It’s just that your mentality when drinking soy milk is different. Sigh, ever since Meng’er came back, all of us boys have become ignored children.”
Qu Haoxiang’s skill at playing tricks was growing day by day.
Elder Qu rolled his eyes at Qu Haoxiang rudely. “Ignored? Who gave you the big contract in your hand recently?”
When Elder Qu mentioned this matter, Qu Haoxiang hurriedly begged for mercy. “Grandpa, I was wrong. I was wrong.”
“That’s more like it. You brats, don’t keep thinking that I’m biased towards Meng’er.” Elder Qu took this opportunity to give a warning to those in the family who had thoughts in their hearts.
“Grandpa, you’ve wronged us. We don’t even have time to dote on Meng’er. Why would we be jealous of Meng’er?”
“It’s just that there are some things that I think it’s better to explain clearly so that some people won’t have any doubts. On the surface, you see that your grandmother and I dote on Meng’er. However, you haven’t seen what Meng’er has done for us and for our family. To put it bluntly, without Meng’er, our family’s current status wouldn’t be there.” Elder Qu’s words were said for the boys to listen to. However, in reality, he was saying it for his daughters-in-law to listen to as well.
He knew clearly who was behind all those little tricks. If it wasn’t for Meng’er telling him not to be so calculative, he wouldn’t have allowed them to appear in the Qu family. “I still say the same thing. Whoever can make the Qu family continue to prosper, I will hand the Qu family over to them.”
Although Elder Qu said so, everyone understood in their hearts that Elder Qu still liked Chen Meng’er.
In the entire family, at this stage, who else was more capable than Chen Meng’er? The answer was very obvious, that was no one.
How could Chen Meng’er not understand what Elder Qu was thinking? However, she really did not want to do something that would not benefit her. When she took over the Qu family, she did not know that Cao Feiying and the others would say. They would call her a hypocrite.
When Elder Qu was talking about this, Chen Meng’er actually did not want to be present. However, her grandfather, Elder Qu, always deliberately picked the time when she was present to say that. This was actually also said for her to hear.
At this time, Chen Meng’er could only lower her head and eat, pretending not to hear anything.
When Elder Qu saw Chen Meng’er like this, he knew that this girl had started to want to hide again. “Meng’er, listen up. You are also a member of the Qu family. The Qu family will also be a part of your responsibility in the future.”
“Ah, Grandpa, don’t be so reserved. You want Meng’er to take over the Qu family and become the head of the Qu family. Just say it honestly. We don’t have any objections,” Qu Haocheng stood out and said with a smile. In the Qu family, other than Chen Meng’er and Qu Haoxiang, only Qu Haocheng did not have any thoughts towards the head of the Qu family. He was determined to do literature. “As long as Meng’er doesn’t forget to give us some pocket money every month of course,” Qu Haocheng joked.
Cao Feiying and Wei Honjuan’s faces darkened when Qu Haocheng said that. They had never expected Qu Haocheng to stand up and answer them like that.
“Haha, if Meng’er really becomes the head of the Qu family, not to mention pocket money, your annual dividends will also increase.” Qu Haocheng’s words clearly hit Elder Qu’s heart, after Elder Qu heard Qu Haocheng’s words, he beamed with joy. He almost gave him a thumbs up.
And here, the one in the most awkward situation was Chen Meng’er. Chen Meng’er did not know how far this topic would develop if it continued. When no one was paying attention, she reached out to touch Qu Haoxiang who was sitting beside her.
Qu Haoxiang felt Chen Meng’er touch him and turned to look at Chen Meng’er.
Chen Meng’er gave Qu Haoxiang a look. With the telepathy of the twins, qu Haoxiang immediately understood what Chen Meng’er’s look meant.
He nodded to Chen Meng’er and said, “Grandpa, this is not the most urgent matter.”
“Then what is the most urgent matter?” Elder Qu glared at his little grandson who had ruined his plans.
“Of course it’s those people who bullied Meng’er. How should we deal with them? Meng’er has a kind heart. If we Qu Yaoxi go, what about the others? What about the Su family and the Liao family? Aren’t you going to make a decision?” Qu Haoxiang asked.
