The old house of the Chen family.
When the Feng family came to the door, Feng Meizhu was the only one in the second room.
She was sitting under an umbrella in the small outdoor garden, enjoying a wonderful afternoon tea. Suddenly he saw the servant leading his family in, and he stood up in surprise: "Daddy, mommy, little sister? Why are you here?"
After getting married, Feng Meizhu usually returns to her natal family, and her natal family rarely comes here on their own initiative.
Mother Feng stepped forward and took her daughter's hand, motioning her to look at her younger sister Feng Meilin: "You have to help your sister make the decision this time. Look at how your sister has been bullied!"
Feng Meizhu followed her mother's line of sight and saw her sister's whole face was covered like a steamed bun: "What's going on, little sister? Who did it?"
Feng Meilin's teeth and face were still aching, and it was difficult to speak. Feng's mother explained for her: "It's not like you, who was harmed by that country bumpkin."
When she heard the word country bumpkin, Feng Meizhu's expression changed drastically, and a trace of hatred flashed in her eyes: "You mean that bitch Jiang Yao?"
Feng's mother nodded angrily: "It's not her! Last time she caused a big embarrassment for you. In order to vent your anger, your sister rejected the manuscript she submitted to the newspaper. Now she is angered again. This time No, I encouraged my husband to beat your little sister so hard that two of her teeth were knocked out and her face was disfigured. The doctor said she has to stay at home for at least a month."
Father Feng gritted his teeth and added: "That's not all, that country bumpkin also caused your sister to lose her job! I'm afraid she won't be able to gain a foothold in the media industry in the future. Your sister has worked hard to run a career for so long, just because She was ruined! Tell me, what is this! What is it!"
"What evil has our family done? We are pushed down and bullied by country bumpkins every day!"
Feng's father and Feng's mother beat their chests and stamped their feet, with a look of lamentation on their faces.
Next to her, Feng Meilin's eyes turned red in response, and she almost cried: "Sister, look at me..."
Listening to her parents' accusations and seeing her sister's miserable state, Feng Meizhu's heart ached. When had the Feng family ever been bullied like this?
Jiang Yao, this bitch! Damn it! Damn it!
Feng Meizhu wished she could rush forward and crush Jiang Yao to ashes, but when she thought of Chen Yanbei standing in front of her, she flinched again.
That Yama is not to be messed with. What happened last time has taught her a profound lesson.
She made a fool of herself on the news and became the laughing stock of the entire circle. She still has no shame in going out to socialize. Chen's reputation was in crisis, causing her husband to be held accountable by the company's board of directors. Even the entire Les Mills brand has been completely removed from the jewelry industry, and ladies and gentlemen no longer pay for it.
All this was thanks to Chen Yanbei. Thinking of these consequences, Feng Meizhu did not dare to act rashly.
The initial hatred and anger was gradually replaced by fear. Looking at her expression, her sister Feng Meilin was confused: "Sister, are you still afraid of that cripple and country bumpkin? My brother-in-law is now the person in charge of the company, so he can definitely make the decision for us!"
Are you asking your husband Chen Yaozu to make the decision? Thinking of this, Feng Meizhu flinched even more.
Feng's mother immediately noticed something was wrong with her daughter and asked: "Azhu, did you encounter something at the Chen family? What happened to you and Yaozu?"
Hearing this, the Feng family's eyes were all focused on Feng Meizhu.
Seeing the concerned eyes of her family, Feng Meizhu could no longer bear the grievance and could only tell the truth:
"It's not that I don't want to go to Yaozu, it's just that since the last time I was brought into the news by that country bumpkin and the company was implicated, Yaozu has become much colder to me. Although he didn't hit me or scold me, after returning home He doesn’t have a good face towards me, and he doesn’t even want to say anything to me.”
"It's been even more extreme recently. He hasn't gotten home until four or five in the morning for a week. He goes home to change clothes and then goes out to work. He asked me if he was busy with company matters, and blamed me for being stupid, inconsiderate, and taking too much care. . If we hadn’t lived with mom and dad, he would have been too lazy to go back home.”
"So if I go to him to make the decision regarding my little sister this time, I'm afraid that not only will he not help us, but he will blame our family for causing him trouble again."
After listening to her daughter's words, Feng's mother finally understood why something was wrong with her daughter. It was because she was coldly beaten by her husband.
She complained angrily: "I'm busy with work, I dislike you for this, I dislike you for that, these are all excuses. I'm afraid I might be entangled by some vixen outside!"
Thinking of something, she called Feng Meizhu aside alone and asked in a low voice: "Has he touched you recently? How often do you do it?"
Feng Meizhu naturally understood what her mother meant by "touch" and shook her head shyly, "Since the last quarrel until now, she has never touched me again."
Haven't touched it recently? Feng's mother's face changed slightly, and she became more sure of her guess: "Huh, if you are full outside, you will certainly not be hungry when you get home. Azhu, you need to eat more, Yaozu must be in trouble outside."
Feng Meilin also came over: "Sister, you have to pay close attention to your brother-in-law. With his identity and status, there are many women outside. Don't stay at home all day. If you have nothing to do, go to my brother-in-law's company for a few rounds. , show your face and shock those women with impure thoughts."
Feng Meizhu naturally thought about what her sister said. It was not that she had never been to the company, but the incident last time was so big that she had no face to show up at the company.
Seeing the three women muttering next to each other, Father Feng could guess what they were talking about. From a man's perspective, the matter of his daughter was nothing at all. What man didn't have some flowers outside?
He pulled Feng Meizhu over: "Don't listen to your mother, it's a woman's opinion. Ordinary men will eat secretly, let alone a child of a wealthy family like the Chen family. Since you are married in, you have to accept this fact and don't get into trouble."
"Listen to Daddy's analysis," Father Feng continued, "What if there are people outside the man? After all, you are the main wife of the family. You just need to coax your parents-in-law well at home, respect the old man, and secure your position. Steady, what's the point of fishing for your natal family and making your natal family stronger? Just turn a blind eye to other things."
This is indeed the truth, but Feng's mother still rolled her eyes at her husband: "You men are not good."
Father Feng defended with a guilty look on his face: "I'm talking about my daughter, don't talk about anything else. Now the eldest son is in a relationship crisis, and the second son was bullied and lost his job. How to solve these two problems is the key."
After uniting the front again, the Feng family fell into deep thought.
At this time, my father-in-law Chen Guoqiang and my mother-in-law Zheng Chiling returned home from the event.
When the two families met, the injuries on Feng Meilin's face were too eye-catching. Zheng Chiling asked, "What's wrong with Xiaolin's face?"
Chen Guoqiang also looked over with concern.
Now Feng's father and Chen Guoqiang have a joint business project, so they still have to show their concern.
Hearing the concern from his in-laws, Feng's father changed his mind and had an idea.
He first told the two parents the truth, and then said: "After all, the eldest family is also a member of the Chen family. We don't want Yaozu to be in trouble between his family and us, so we just treat it as a dull loss this time."
"It's just——", he changed the topic, "Arlene finally worked hard to get the position of editor-in-chief of the newspaper. It's a pity to lose her job because of this. In-laws, you have many connections. Can you help arrange a job for Arlene?" Work? It doesn’t matter if it’s inconvenient, just pretend we didn’t say anything.”
Father Feng had already figured out in a short period of time that even if his youngest daughter's injury caused a big fuss in the Chen family, it would be nothing more than an apology in the end. Afterwards, Mr. Chen might blame the Feng family for always causing trouble and having a problem with the second wife. Then his daughter would fall even more out of favor in the Chen family.
It would be better for you to admit this loss first, win the sympathy of your relatives, and then make a logical request to help introduce the job. In this way, the other party will feel that they owe you a favor and arrange a better job for your little daughter.
Sure enough, Father Feng's words of knowing how to advance and retreat put Chen Guoqiang on a high ground.
He felt a little guilty for the Feng family: "Hey, of course there is no problem with such trivial matters as arranging work, but I just don't know what kind of work Arin is interested in?"
Father Feng winked at his daughter, and Feng Meilin immediately understood: "Uncle, I used to be the editor-in-chief of a newspaper. I am used to dealing with media reporters, so the most suitable career is to work in the marketing department or public relations department of a company."
Feng Meilin is also a person with many twists and turns in her heart.
She immediately saw her father's intention, which was to get her to work in the Chen family, so that she could not only make more connections with wealthy families, but also help her sister look after her brother-in-law. As long as the position of the younger sister of the Chen family is stable, the good days of the Feng family will not end.
Regarding the Feng family's request, Chen Guoqiang just pondered for a while, and then suddenly thought about Amy from the public relations department and his son. He had long wanted to find an opportunity to kick that Amy away, but his son had been using her very seriously recently, so why not——
"Arlene, how about you come to work in Chen's public relations department? You used to be an editor-in-chief, so you should be very familiar with media work. The position of public relations director is very suitable for you."
The title of public relations director is no worse than that of the editor-in-chief of the newspaper, and it is equally prestigious when spoken out. Feng Meilin nodded immediately: "Okay, uncle, I have no problem!"
Chen Guoqiang also simply said: "Then it's settled. You can rest in peace and recover. I will arrange this position for you."
"Thank you, uncle!" Feng Meilin thanked her happily.
Father Feng laughed: "Hey, thank you, father-in-law."
After their wish was fulfilled, the Feng family did not stay long. After greeting for a while, they stood up and left.
Before leaving, Feng's mother secretly communicated to her eldest daughter: "Don't worry, your sister will help you look after Yaozu when she goes to the company. You can coax your parents-in-law at home."
After sending her family away, Feng Meizhu was still a little angry about her sister being bullied. Old grudges were compounded by new grudges. She was holding back a fire in her heart and wanted to vent it.
As luck would have it, I met Chen Xibei from the big house while walking in the garden for dinner.
"Second sister-in-law." Chen Xibei took the initiative to say hello to her.
Feng Meizhu smiled at her and then brought the topic to Jiang Yao:
"Xibei, your sister-in-law is really good at it. She went to Xiangjiang University through the back door and didn't know how to study hard. She wasted her time writing those messy novels all day long. She also submitted her work to a newspaper, but my sister rejected it and became angry. , instigated someone to beat my sister."
"If it weren't for the fact that we are all a family, my parents would have brought the matter to the attention of the old man."
"Is this happening?" Chen Xibei asked in surprise.
Feng Meizhu cut everything off and did not involve Chen Yanbei. She only pointed her gun at Jiang Yao.
Mother-in-law Zheng Zhiling came over at some unknown time. She stepped forward and took her daughter-in-law’s arm to support her:
"Of course, Xibei, you didn't see it. Sister Meizhu was beaten so badly that her face was disfigured. That Jiang Yao came from the mainland. She doesn't look like a lady. She is a country shrew. She yells for beating at the slightest quarrel. Those who shout and curse will sooner or later lose face to our Chen family outside."
"That's right." Feng Meizhu nodded in agreement and sighed, "But grandpa has always been partial to his eldest brother, and he loves his family as much as he loves his family. Even if he told grandpa about this, he wouldn't believe it. He would only think that my sister didn't have the foresight to provoke Jiang Yao. "
Zheng Chiling interrupted her daughter-in-law at the right time: "Hey, let's not talk about this anymore. Let's go in."
The two sang in harmony with Chen Xibei and then entered the room.
After returning home, Zheng Zhiling said to her daughter-in-law: "You are not too stupid to know how to reveal this matter to the eldest family. Just wait. Your eldest aunt has a narrow-minded person, and she is most taboo about anyone being better than her." My daughter is excellent, so I will definitely make a fuss about it this time, and that country bumpkin will not have an easy time."
"But you don't have to avoid me when doing this kind of thing in the future. Since you are my daughter-in-law, I will definitely not let you be wronged, as long as things don't come to light like last time."
Feng Meizhu was comforted by her mother-in-law, and she felt a little better: "I understand, Mommy, thank you."
But she was still a little curious: "Mommy, why do I feel that my eldest aunt doesn't like my eldest cousin very much? I don't know if it's my illusion."
The corner of Zheng Chiling's mouth curled up, "You are right, she not only doesn't like it, she hates it to death, because -
She and Chen Yanbei's biological mother were best friends. She stepped on her best friend to get the upper hand. After she got married, she couldn't give birth to a son. Of course she hated her best friend's son. "
It turned out to be like this. Feng Meizhu was secretly happy. The enemy of her enemy was her friend. She should get closer to Zhou Limin and Chen Xibei in the future.
