He was very satisfied by what he had now. His two sons were doing well in business, and his youngest son was good at reading. He was very proud, even though he had no lineal son. Hence, he ignored all family affairs.
He focused only on enjoyment.
Ms. Mi Junior hated him for behaving .
She felt so annoyed after being married to him for so long.
The First Old Master was the supporter of the family but her husband was just trash. The First Old Master had a pair of excellent sons, but she had no sons at all.
Hearing her words, the Second Old Master frowned in surprise. “That is not possible. He has always been . If something had happened, he would not have concealed it from us.”
Ms. Mi Junior sneered. “Why not? He can conceal it from us so they can do something bad in secret!”
The Second Old Master was always very slow in this aspect. He snapped angrily. “Why do you care? Mom is still alive and they can’t do anything bad in secret! Moreover, our sons are also involved in the family business, and they would keep an eye on those who try to do something bad behind our backs. What are you worried about?”
Losing interest in hearing Ms. Mi Junior’s babbling, the Second Old Master went out, humming happily.
Ms. Mi Junior felt annoyed and there was fury arising inside her chest.
What on earth had she done to end up marrying such a trash!
After some complaints, Ms.Mi Junior thought for a while and whispered something to her trusted servant.
She was not going to drop it, even though her husband did not care.
Yuezheng Si and Yuezheng Yan were her husband’s sons, not hers.
They might be successful in business, but none of their earnings would end up being in her hands.
Hence, she had to make a plan for herself.
She needed to get a share of the family business.
Soon, rumor went around in the mansion that the First Old Master was doing bad at the abbey and was on his deathbed.
Some even said that the Third Young Master had been asked to go to Southern Garden, and he looked so worried when he went out. He spent a whole night there.
Soon, Madame Yuezheng knew about it.
She called her eldest granddaughter-in-law and Ms. Mi Junior and asked about it.
“What happened to the Eldest Son, do you know anything about the matter?” Ms. Jin turned to Ms. Mi Junior.
She was already aware of what to do with the Second Aunt-in-law, having being in a fight with her for years.
She was going to let her Second Aunt-in-law answer Madame’s question.
Ms. Mi Junior said, “I am not sure, but someone from Southern Garden came to fetch Xiao who hurried away. He did not come home the night before, so we have no idea what is going on at Southern Garden.”
“Xiao left in such a hurry. He should have told us what happened, otherwise you will be worried, right, Madame?”
Madame Yuezheng frowned and snorted, looking annoyed.
Ms. Jin smiled. “Madame, maybe he did not tell you about it because he did not want you to get worried. But I am sure that he won’t conceal anything from you deliberately if something really bad is happening. I will get my people to look around at Southern Garden!”
“Those servants indulge in too much gossip! He was at Southern Garden, and did not return overnight, what does that mean?”
