217 Mother and Daughter’s Scheme
For powerful people like the Fu family, the daughter-in-law they wanted was the real daughter of the Le Group like Le Wan, someone who could bring them real benefits, not their daughter who could only get dividends like their second wife.
Hence, to Le An, Zhai Jing, who had just risen to power and had a good future ahead of him, was the best and easiest target for her.
“You’ve suffered.”
When Second Aunt Le mentioned this, she was both distressed and angry.
“If your father could work harder, I wouldn’t have to worry so much.”
That was what Le An thought as well, but the mother and daughter were well aware of Second Uncle Le’s capabilities, so they never imagined that he would suddenly become capable.
Second Aunt Le was a little worried about this.
“I don’t know what’s wrong with your father. He actually offended the Old Master and Old Madam. I heard that it was a serious matter. The old master even said that he won’t care about him in the future.”
When Le An heard that the matter was indeed very serious, if her grandparents didn’t care about their family and relied on her father to support the family, they would probably have to live on air.
“Then what’s daddy still doing at home?” She asked anxiously. “Hurry up and go find grandpa and grandma and ask for their forgiveness.”
Second Aunt Le was worried.
“I’ve already been there. I’ve even used the ruse of injuring him. Seeing how he came back so listlessly, I’m afraid that even that won’t work.”
Le An was so anxious that she was spinning in circles.
“No, we have to help daddy.”
The Old Master and the Old Madam were the second branch’s biggest backing.
She thought for a while and really came up with an idea.
“Didn’t grandpa and grandma say that we’ll hold a family dinner after big sister’s college entrance examination and let everyone gather?”
She immediately took out her phone. I’ll call grandpa immediately and ask him to organize it.
Second Aunt Le reminded her,
“It’s best to ask your eldest sister to bring Zhai Jing along.”
Le An’s face trembled.
“I’m not that stupid. I won’t dare to snatch her boyfriend in front of her.”
“I’ll help you when the time comes. I’ll see if I can find a way to lure your eldest sister away. When we’re alone, you can wait for an opportunity to strike,” Second Aunt Le whispered in her ear.
“Isn’t the time too short?” Le An was a little worried.
Second Aunt Le patted her chest and said,
“Don’t worry. I have a magical medicine. You can think of a way to make Zhai Jing drink it. He will let you do whatever you want. As long as we can prove that there is a relationship between you and him, according to Le Wan’s character, she will definitely let go.”
Le An’s face turned red and she was a little scared.
“Mom, who did you learn all this from?”
“You don’t need to worry about that. Just do as I say.”
Second Aunt Le thought that she had used this method to hook up with Second Uncle Le back then. Otherwise, with her slightly rich family background, it would have been impossible for her to marry into the Le family.
Even though Second Uncle Le was a good-for-nothing who could do nothing but ruin things and would occasionally secretly look for women outside, he still knew his limits and didn’t dare to cause a scene at home.
Therefore, she felt that being Second Mrs. Le was quite easy, and her days were also quite comfortable. This proved that she hadn’t chosen the wrong person back then.
Second Aunt Le ruffled Le An’s hair tenderly.
“My good daughter, don’t worry. Mommy will definitely make your wish come true.”
After receiving Le An’s reminder, Elder Le remembered that there was indeed such a thing. After he hung up the phone, he smiled helplessly at the matriarch.
“I’m really getting on in years. I can’t even remember such an important thing.”
Matriarch Le was originally packing her things, but she wasn’t in a hurry to do so.
“Baby called me last night. Why didn’t you remind me?”
“I guess I heard you say that we’re going to the Southern continent to relax, so I didn’t mention it,” Grandpa Le sighed.
After Second Uncle’s ruckus yesterday, the two elders didn’t even have an appetite for dinner. Everyone in the eldest family called to show their concern, especially Baby. She tried to make them happy over the phone and even asked the butler to cook some calming soup for them.
However, there was no news from the second brother’s family from the beginning to the end. Even Le Yan, who lived in the same room as them, was afraid of getting them angry after knowing that they had quarreled, so she went back to her room early to hide under the pretext of revising.
The two of them looked at each other. The two families were like this, but their second son had the guts to say that he was biased. So what if they were biased?
With her granddaughter busy, Matriarch Le was suddenly full of energy.
“In that case, let’s postpone our trip to the Southern continent for a few days.”
