"The eldest grandfather and the second grandfather are the same as my grandfather, so they are classified as the main family. Otherwise, they would have to work hard to curry favor with the main family like the side branches." Tang Lian shook her head helplessly, "They are all You are spineless, you can just give me some scraps and you will be willing to be a dog."
Shi Xin heard that something was wrong with her tone: "You seem to hate the fact that iron cannot become steel?"
Tang Lian did not deny it, but turned around and said seriously: "What I dislike the most are the sons and daughters-in-law of the two great masters. The properties assigned to them by the Tang family are guaranteed to make a profit without loss, and they can just sit back and enjoy the gains. It would be better for them to just feed it to those bystanders. Department branch, thinking that this will allow them to support the overthrow of the mistress."
If they hadn't gossiped behind her back, Chen Yuzhen wouldn't have treated her like this.
perhaps…
Shi Xin understood: "Determine the master's house first and then the mistress. Can the mistress choose from among the women in the master's house?"
Tang Lian: "Yes, but unless the Mistress makes a major mistake, the elders will not agree to overturn the Mistress' re-election. This is why Chen Yuzhu divided the interests and wanted to have these collateral branches jointly submit a letter at the right time. "
Shi Xin said worriedly: "If the mistress really changes one day, your situation in the family will be even worse, right?"
"No, after I left Lin'an, I was considered a useless person in the master's house." Tang Lian said coldly, "If I hadn't made a name for myself in the finals, they would never have thought that there was someone like me. exist."
Moreover, the sudden contact does not mean that she is valued and profitable. A capable woman will only be regarded as a competitor.
The best proof is that Chen Yuzhu, the daughter-in-law of the eldest son of the eldest son, suddenly announced her information to a small clique.
"And..." Tang Lian lowered her head guiltily, "You."
"Ah?" Shi Xin was puzzled, "What's wrong with me?"
"Those toads in the Tang family are trying to introduce you to a marriage through me, which is also commonly known as a marriage," Tang Lian explained, "Don't worry, I have sternly rejected it."
Shi Xin reacted: "Yesterday you and Ah Fu were hesitant to talk in the coffee shop, and you also told me that someone in the family was asking about me. Is it all because of this?"
Tang Lian nodded: "Marriage is a common thing among ten families. My father's generation has always been married to the Chen family, well... except for the mistress, who just happens to be surnamed Chen, and she is the first generation in her family with the surname "Yu". , so he looks just like the other people in the Chen family who have married into each other."
As the two chatted, the high-speed train pulled into the station.
Wake up Zhang Ningzhi and let her go to the Lin'an Inventory Bureau.
As the lord of Los Angeles and the most popular member of the organization at this stage, her arrival should be highly valued.
There was already a group of people in white shirts waiting on the platform. The leader was Ding Fantian, the captain of the first team of the Lin'an Inventory Bureau. He looked nearly thirty years old and very haggard. He shook hands warmly as soon as he came up and said: "After waiting for a long time, Lord Shi, originally Tang The lord wants to pick you up in person, but recently all the lords have been rushing to attend the World Games, and he is too busy."
Zhang Ning stepped forward to shake hands with Ding Fantian for Shi Xin and said with a smile: "Actually, you are not here either. We Lords of Luo City do not have to ask Lord Tang to greet us. We like to keep a low profile. It is best for no one to know. we are coming."
Ding Fantian was embarrassed by Yin and Yang.
"You're right, there's nothing to welcome just three people." The junior standing behind him sarcastically said, "Luo City is a place as big as a palm, and its GDP is not as high as my clan's quarterly revenue. How can I come to welcome you?" Give face, don’t give face and be shameless.”
"Xiao Cheng! What are you talking about?" Ding Fantian was shocked, "Hurry up and apologize to the guests in Luo City!"
"What's there to apologize for?" The junior continued arrogantly, "I'm from the Tang family!"
As soon as these words came out, Xin Xin and Zhang Ning subconsciously looked at Tang Lian.
Tang Lian said coldly: "Which branch of the Tang family are you from?"
"Tang Yuncheng! I am the same generation as the mistress and son Tang Yunting!" She said proudly, "I heard that my sister Tang Lian who is away from home is a member of your Faceless Organization. I am not saying that someone with her rating can do it. When you are your gold medal fighter, your real talent in Los Angeles is withering."
"Idiot." Tang Lian frowned in disgust, "I am Tang Lian."
Tang Yuncheng was stunned: "Lian, Sister Lian?"
Seeing that the situation was tense, Shi Xin took the initiative to calm down: "Captain Ding, thank you for your welcome today anyway. We have something else to do, so we'll leave first."
Ding Fantian apologized repeatedly and kept bending down: "I'm sorry, I'm sorry! My subordinates are used to being rude and domineering. Don't argue with her! Lord Tang really didn't come because he had something to do. It's not that he didn't want to come. "
Shi Xin knew that he was afraid of retaliation and that if there was a diplomatic incident between the two places, he would be pushed out and take the blame.
She hates seeing people like this the most.
"It's just a family matter, it's nothing."
The lord of Luo City came to attend the World Games in person, and the person responsible for the welcome had to be the lord, mayor, or director. Let a small team leader lead a group of people to welcome him. It was clear that he was not giving face, so Zhang Ningzhi was there. Yin and Yang were so angry that they simply didn't let anyone know they were coming.
Ding Fantian understood what Shi Xin meant by this, which was to limit the incident to family matters and to distance himself from him as much as possible.
"Thank you, I'll give it to you."
Tang Lian rejected him directly: "No, we will go alone."
Tang Yuncheng followed for a while, pretending to hold back and apologize, but was glared at hard.
After a few people had gone some distance away, Zhang Ningzhi couldn't help but complained with his knife: "Your Tang family is indeed the family with the largest number of people. You have everything."
"The collateral branches are all idiots, without exception." Tang Lian agreed expressionlessly, "No matter how many resources you feed, you can't raise people with independent personalities. They are just abandoned children who can be thrown out at any time and used as targets."
The two discussed for a while, and seeing that Shi Xin remained silent, they asked her what she was thinking.
"Oh, I was distracted... I was just wondering why they thought you were not strong enough." She looked at Tang Lian, "This Tang Yuncheng said that he was Tang Yunting's generation and stood with the mistress, but she didn't know how tall you were. How, this, is unreasonable."
"Maybe it's because I've been away from home for too long." Tang Lian laughed at herself, "People in the tribe attach great importance to ratings. Genius is the highest, less educated is second, mediocrity is third, and I am an imbecile, ranking last."
Zhang Ningzhi clicked his tongue twice: "It's really insulting. Although our martial arts school also follows this set of ratings, martial arts genius, martial arts wizard, martial arts mediocrity, and no talent."
Tang Lian suddenly asked her: "What's your rating?"
Zhang Ningzhi avoided looking: "Mediocre."
The two were having fun and laughing at each other.
Shi Xin was still thinking.
Since Tang Yuncheng belongs to the mistress camp, he won't think that Tang Lian is inferior. Faceless Clothes is already famous enough, otherwise Tang Lian's grandfather would not let Tang Lian go back to participate in the World Games and specially ask her to be invited.
Someone in the Tang family must have deliberately said that Tang Lian was useless.
