Chapter 692: Chapter 692
This was the first time that someone had told them so clearly what they were thinking, and it really caught them off guard.
After Qu Yaotian and the other Qu brothers heard Chen Meng’er’s words, their expressions did not look any better. Qu Yaotian and the others were not stupid. They knew about the little thoughts in their wives’ hearts.
However, for the sake of the harmony of the family, and also for their confidence, they felt that with them watching, their wives and their families would not be able to do anything. Hence, they chose to turn a blind eye to it.
The development of the matter previously was the same as what they had imagined. However, after Chen Meng’er appeared, some things were no longer under their control. For example, Qu Yaotao’s wife Cao Feiying, was reprimanded by his father because of those incidents. And after his father reprimanded his wife Cao Feiying, instead of restraining herself, she became even worse.
“Meng’er is right. Just in case, it is necessary for me to make a will. Yaotian, later, inform lawyer Zhang to make a trip to the house.” Elder Qu seriously considered Chen Meng’er’s words.
It was only recently that Elder Qu found out that his daughters-in-law, regardless of their status, were eyeing the Qu family covetously. They all hoped that their husband would become the next family head of the Qu family.
“Alright, Dad. I understand.” Qu Yaotian hesitated for a moment before agreeing.
“Both of you can go back. The two of us are old and tired. We need to rest. Oh right, Meng’er and Haoxiang, stay here.” Elder Qu’s words made Han Ying, Cao Feiying and the others ‘faces turn black, even the faces of Qu Haoqiang and the other grandsons did not look good.
In the past, before Chen Meng’er returned to the Qu family, Elder Qu and Madam Qu treated the grandsons the same. They treated them equally. However, after Chen Meng’er returned to the Qu family, such a balance was broken.
Elder Qu and Madam Qu had missed their granddaughter for so many years. Furthermore, because their granddaughter had been taken away from them since young, it was only right for them to dote on her a little. In addition, Chen Meng’er was pleasing to the elderly. They could not help but dote on Chen Meng’er a little more.
As Qu Haoxiang and Chen Meng’er were twins, the two of them had stayed in the womb together for nearly ten months, and their feelings were even more different. Among the Qu family’s many grandsons, it was only natural that Chen Meng’er and Qu Haoxiang were especially close.
As for Qu Haoxiang, because of Chen Meng’er, in front of Elder Qu and Madam Qu, he also appeared to be much more pleasing. When Qu Haoqiang and his cousins saw this, their hearts were upset.
However, no matter how much dissatisfaction they had in their hearts, the person in charge of the Qu family was still Elder Qu. If they really angered Elder Qu and he chased them out, they would not have anything to their names.
Therefore, Han Ying, Cao Feiying and the others were unwilling to leave. However, because of Elder Qu’s orders, they turned around and left.
After everyone left, only the Qu family’s two elders, Qu Haoxiang, and Chen Meng’er were left in the living room.
Madam Qu looked at her family who had already started to fight for the family property. This made her very sad and hurt. Chen Meng’er, who was sitting next to Madam Qu, felt the faint sadness emanating from Madam Qu’s body. She did not say anything. She just held Madam Qu’s arm and silently comforted her.
When Madam Qu saw Chen Meng’er like this, her heart warmed up. The faint sadness in her heart also dissipated quite a bit. She still had a caring little girl, didn’t she?
Qu Haoxiang did not feel the joy of being treated specially by his grandparents. He wished that he could leave with his brothers.
Chen Meng’er held onto Madam Qu’s hand and sat on the sofa, smiling. She looked at her grandfather, Elder Qu, without saying a word. Her eyes stared unblinkingly at her brother while her brother lowered his head, he did not dare raise his head to meet the gaze of his grandfather.
“Grandma, look at Grandpa and Haoxiang. How long are they going to be in this stalemate? Don’t you think Grandpa’ eyes are sore? Grandma, don’t you think it’s uncomfortable for my brother to keep his neck so low?” Chen Meng’er deliberately used a voice that both Elder Qu and Qu Haoxiang could hear as she whispered into Madam Qu’s ear.
“Grandma doesn’t know either. You’ll have to ask your Grandpa and your brother about this,” Madam Qu covered her mouth and said with a smile.
Elder Qu and Qu Haoxiang were a little embarrassed. Elder Qu snorted lightly and withdrew his eyes that were staring at Qu Haoxiang. Qu Haoxiang, who felt the cold feeling on his back disappear, also heaved a sigh of relief and raised his head.
Needless to say, it was really quite uncomfortable to keep his head lowered.
“You two still haven’t told me what’s going on.” Elder Qu was no longer angry. However, for the sake of his own dignity, he still pretended to be very angry. He said in a deep voice, “Qu Haoxiang, speak first.”
“Grandpa, can you let my sister speak first?” Qu Haoxiang said with a roll of his eyes.
“Are you still a man? Tell me, how can you be the head of the Murong family with your current confidence? The Murong family was going to fall anyway. Don’t let the Murong family disappear once you take over.” Elder Qu couldn’t help but disagree.
“Grandpa, how could you do this? Weren’t you supposed to cheer me on?” Qu Haoxiang complained.
“Hmph, why should I cheer you on? You didn’t even help me. If there’s anything, why didn’t you tell me at the first moment?” Elder Qu was arrogant. Elder Qu said this not only to Qu Haoxiang, but also to Chen Meng’er.
He was concerned that Chen Meng’er did not tell him about the matter. He was jealous.
