There was no one in the corridor, and the ground was bright and clean, and nothing fell on it.
Gu Xinyan glanced sharply, only to find a light green skirt floating around the corner in the distance.
She recognized that this was the skirt Shao Lanlan was wearing today.
"Mom, it's not good. I just wanted to send some fruit to my aunt and sister-in-law. I heard it at the door of my aunt's room..."
She was out of breath.
Yu Hui was anxious, "What did you hear?"
"Aunt... She wants to propose my sister-in-law to be the CEO of the group."
Yu Hui was stunned after hearing this, and then smiled faintly, "What's so strange about this, it will be a matter of time before your sister-in-law is in charge."
"But, my aunt is in charge of the family and has handed over the group company to my father."
"It's because your aunt is in poor health. She can't take care of it. This group is the foundation created by your grandmother. She originally left it to her daughter-in-law to take care of it and pass it on from generation to generation."
"Mom, then you are also a daughter-in-law. You don't know how to do business. Isn't it natural for Dad to be the CEO?"
Although Shao Lanlan respected Gu Xinyan, she felt that it was unfair for her aunt to suddenly remove her father's position and promote her newly married daughter-in-law Gu Xinyan.
Father didn't make a big mistake, didn't he just listen to the second aunt today and scolded mother?
Yu Hui looked up at her, "Do you really believe that your father is running the family group wholeheartedly? He has always been conscientious and selfless?"
Shao Lanlan blinked, puzzled, "Mom, don't you believe that Dad is a good leader?"
Every year my father is very busy, not working overtime, flying around the world, signing contracts, running business, and holding meetings everywhere...
Ever since she was a child, she has heard her father say the word "business trip" until her ears get callused.
A man can't take care of his family when he does his career, and can't accompany his wife and children. She has noticed it since she was a child.
Shao Lanlan couldn't figure out that such a hard-working father would suddenly step down from the position of president.
"Lan Lan, you are so old, there are some things that mother should tell you. Your father is not a good leader. Over the years, our company has been losing money year after year and cannot make ends meet. Your aunt knows very well."
Shao Lanlan was stunned...
Yu Hui added another sentence: "What your aunt decides, we just listen to it, don't raise any objections. Although my mother is the second daughter-in-law of the Shao family, your grandmother said when she was alive that the home is for the eldest couple. , even if the mother gives birth to a son, it will not be the mother's turn."
Shao Lanlan lowered her head and stopped talking.
Fu Shumin was really tired this day, and fell asleep after saying a few words to Gu Xinyan.
Gu Xinyan went back to her bedroom and changed into a coat. When washing her hands, she found a blister on her palm, probably caused by rubbing too hard with the iron hammer.
Afraid that her husband would find out the cause of the blisters in her palm, she hurriedly found the medicine box to pierce them with a needle, and wiped them with iodine medicine.
Because she was not feeling well, she also went to bed and rested for more than half an hour, and it was already evening when she woke up again.
Picking up the phone and looking at it, she found that her husband had sent her several WeChat messages, asking her if she wanted to have dinner together?
She replied immediately, saying that it was unreasonable, and let him chat and play freely with his comrades.
A group of male soldiers, with a woman in the middle, they are somewhat restrained.
"Then I'll come back to pick you up later." Zheng Yihua replied quickly, and it seemed that he was still thinking about his new wife outside.
"No need, husband, I'll wait for you in my new house."
Zheng Yihua had no choice but to follow her.
When she went downstairs, Gu Xinyan saw Ni Cairui standing hesitantly and staring at herself not far from the sofa, she couldn't help calling out strangely: "Xiao Ni, come here, tell me if you have anything to say."
Ni Cairui glanced at Yu Hui.
Yu Hui then said for her: "She wants to stay in the compound and do things."
Gu Xinyan was slightly surprised, "Don't want to go out to work?"
Ni Cairui walked over slowly, lowered her head cautiously, "I'm afraid I won't be able to do outside work."
"Have you studied computers?"
Ni Cairui shook her head, "No."
Gu Xinyan thought for a while and said, "Well, I'll sign you up for a computer training class. You learn to type on a computer first, and when you're familiar with using a computer, I'll arrange a good job for you."
Ni Cairui was stunned, why did she treat herself so well?
"Why are you still standing there, thank you, young mistress." Yu Hui smiled faintly.
Ni Cairui grabbed the hem of her skirt helplessly, then bent down towards Gu Xinyan, "Thank you, Eldest... Eldest Young Mistress."
"You should call me sister-in-law." Gu Xinyan waved her hands.
Yu Hui smiled at her and said, "Xin Yan, let her choose as she likes. Calling you Young Mistress is a respectful title for you."
Ni Cairui's expression was slightly strange, and seeing the two of them chatting, she turned and left.
After she left, Yu Hui said: "Since your mother-in-law didn't let her recognize Ye'er as her god-brother, then she should be called Young Master Ye'er and your eldest young mistress. You can bring her here and find a job for her." , let her get married to you again, I'm afraid she will swell."
Gu Xinyan smiled, "Auntie, it's just a title, there's no need to distinguish it so clearly, right?"
"Why don't you tell the difference? She is a girl from outside. If you let her call you sister-in-law, people who don't know her will think she is your sister-in-law, and she might show off outside in your light to satisfy vanity."
"Auntie, you think too much, she is innocent."
"After arriving in this big city, she gradually became no longer innocent. I could see that she had a big heart. She went back to the study to wipe the cabinet and deliberately stepped on the washbasin..."
Gu Xinyan was slightly taken aback, "Ye'er is in the study?"
"Well, I heard from Sister Ying that Ni Cairui was called downstairs by your mother-in-law, but Sister Ying was asked to go up and wipe the floor."
"That doesn't mean anything."
"Xinyan," Yu Hui turned around to look at her, and said earnestly, "Auntie really cares about you, Ye'er is handsome and her family background is good, any girl will like it after seeing her.
In the future, you should recruit less girls to bring to your home. Ye'er is good-natured, but can you guarantee that other women will not jump on him? "
Gu Xinyan didn't know about these things, she had already discovered Ni Cairui's little thoughtfulness back then.
But no matter what she said, she was the daughter of Father Zheng's savior. The younger brother wanted to repay Father Zheng's kindness in nurturing her, so she couldn't be too narrow-minded as a wife.
Ni Cairui is not very old and has never been in a formal relationship. It is normal to see a young and handsome boy move his mind.
Therefore, Gu Xinyan just wanted to help her, and after she learned computer well, she would find a good job for her so that she could be financially independent.
When she has money and a good job, it will be much easier for her to find a good lover.
"Thank you auntie for reminding me, I will pay attention." Gu Xinyan smiled gratefully at her.
At this moment, the phone in the living room rang, and the housekeeper answered a few words, his face changed slightly.
He glanced at Gu Xinyan, then nodded, "Okay, Second Miss, I understand, I will tell the eldest lady and them."
"What is this woman calling for?" Yu Hui asked hastily.
The butler put down the receiver and said in a low voice: "She invited everyone to the International Hotel for dinner, and said that his son's engagement ceremony will be held normally."
"What?" Gu Xinyan stood up from the sofa in shock.
Hearing her exclamation, Shao Kexin and Shao Lanlan who had just come down from upstairs both ran over and asked her what happened?
Yu Hui shook her head in disbelief, and said to them: "Li Zhiming is engaged tonight, let's go and attend."
"what……"
The two ladies were dumbfounded in shock.
