Chapter 1197: Hidden Secrets!
Old Sir Jiang looked coldly at his youngest daughter, "What do you want to say?"Jiang Zhengfang’s body shivered slightly, she opened her mouth, wanting to explain, but her throat seemed unresponsive, unable to make a sound.
Looking at his mother, Qiao Qinghe felt for the first time a sense of shame.
Usually, she was intent on pushing him to seek advice from his third cousin, to learn management, but in the end, what she schemed was to take over everything from his third cousin.
He suddenly stood up and said, "Grandpa, my mom isn’t thinking clearly, I absolutely have no aspirations for the Jiang Family’s wealth, I assure you."
Old Sir Jiang glanced at him and said, "This matter has nothing to do with you, however, you are smarter than your mother."
Upon hearing this, Jiang Zhengfang’s heart sank into an abyss, she knew the Old Sir was suspecting her, and this sentence cast her into the depths.
She should have realized earlier, the Old Sir has always favored sons over daughters, how could he possibly want a grandson to inherit the family business?
But she was simply unwilling, her son was so intelligent, why should he miss such a good opportunity?
The Old Sir didn’t care what she was thinking, he looked at everyone in the living room, "Daring to plot for the family assets right in front of me, do you take me for a dead man?"
"Dad, it’s our fault, please don’t get angry," Jiang Zhenghong suddenly spoke.
Jiang Zhengting was also annoyed by her sister’s lack of sense, and followed with, "Dad, today is all a misunderstanding."
"What misunderstanding, the matter of the family assets was first brought up by the eldest sister-in-law," Qiu Shuyun said with a cold sneer, "Among us, if anyone cares most about the family assets, isn’t it the eldest sister-in-law?"
"What nonsense!" Jiang Zhengfeng pulled his wife aside, but it was only for appearance’s sake.
Yin Manqing looked at Qiu Shuyun, a hint of mockery in her eyes, spending more than twenty years entangled in a struggle with this ignorant woman was truly laughable.
Being stared at like this, Qiu Shuyun felt a chill in her heart, and said displeased, "Why are you looking at me, am I not right?"
"Some people, despite bringing a child to our door without registering for marriage with my elder brother, stubbornly stay at home, isn’t it all for the family assets?" Jiang Zhengfang said sarcastically, "Let’s not mention anything else, just talk about Wen Hao’s car accident, dare you say it wasn’t your handiwork?"
"Wasn’t this matter clarified already? It has nothing to do with Manqing, it was an accident!" Jiang Zhenghong said angrily.
The younger generation present felt somewhat embarrassed hearing such secrets, unsure whether to leave or stay, as the matter was indeed significant.
Mu Yan instinctively looked at Jiang Jingheng beside her, she knew he was very concerned about his elder brother’s car accident, which was also the biggest rift between him and Yin Manqing.
Jiang Jingheng tightened his face, expressionless, looking at Yin Manqing, not knowing what he was thinking.
Jiang Zhengfang said sarcastically, "Elder brother, I think you’ve been blinded by this woman, not even caring about your own son’s well-being, aren’t you afraid of disheartening Wen Hao?"
Liu Xiangqing frowned, although she had suspected it was Yin Manqing who had acted, Wen Hao had denied it.
Even now, she still felt it was Yin Manqing’s doing, and Wen Hao was acting all for the sake of Jing Heng, after all, their brotherly bond was truly strong.
Hence, she actually felt somewhat dissatisfied with Jiang Zhenghong, her father-in-law’s partiality.
Jiang Zhenghong said coldly, "I said it wasn’t related, and so it isn’t, Zhengfang, do you have to turn the family upside down?"
Jiang Zhengfang argued back, "It’s not me causing trouble, it’s some people not letting us live in peace; if you hadn’t brought back this mother and son pair, would the eldest sister-in-law leave, or would Wen Hao be lying half-dead in a hospital bed now?"
