The evil mother-in-law does not whitewash, she only abuses her children

Everyone laughed and joked.

There was even an old lady who said that she had originally wanted to marry her niece to Master Su, but now she has given up the idea.

Tong Huaqiong said: "The show is about to begin, everyone should shut up and listen carefully."

The aunties and wives in Qinghe Bay are very hot-tempered. If Tong Huaqiong doesn't say anything, they will drive away soon.

No matter how reasonable Master Su was, or how aggressive Tong Panddi was, they could not resist the speed of the car and they were bound to be embarrassed.

"Yes, yes, the fun begins. Big Foot, sit here."

"Boss, I have a seat here for you to sit first."

Everyone's eyes shifted to Tong Huaqiong, and they all called for Tong Huaqiong to take a seat.

Tong Huaqiong and Hong Shi couldn't stand everyone's enthusiasm and had to sit down.

It's also nice to feel the excitement of singing opera during the New Year in this era.

Master Su tugged at Tong Pandi's sleeve. Tong Pandi sat down and reached out to hug Huaer, but Huaer stuck to Master Su's arms and refused to come down.

Only then was Tong Pandi able to look Master Su in the eye, and both of them blushed.

Suddenly, a drum sound was heard from the stage.

The noisy audience fell silent, and the show began.

The play lasted until midnight, and no one was willing to leave when it ended. It was not until the village chief said that the play would continue until the fifth day of the New Year that everyone reluctantly left.

The leisurely first day of the New Year has passed, and the busy second day of the New Year has arrived.

Because on this day, married girls will go to their parents' home. Tong Huaqiong, who has severed ties with her brother and sister-in-law from the Tong family, naturally will not go to the Tong family, but her stepdaughter Gu Baishuang will come to Qinghe Bay.

Tong Huaqiong is going to bring her whole family to entertain Gu Baishuang.

Gu Baishuang and Nie Mingyuan arrived at Qinghe Bay early in the morning on the second day of the Chinese New Year.

Following behind him were his two step-sons and their two step-wives.

Ever since Tong Huaqiong helped Gu Baishuang make a lot of money by boarding the Lu family's merchant ship, Nie Mingyuan has treated Tong Huaqiong even more respectfully than his own mother.

Over the past year, Nie Mingyuan suddenly realized that although he had made a lot of money through the Lu family, the money and business were almost all in the hands of Gu Baishuang. He wanted to intervene but found that he could not.

He discussed with Gu Baishuang and asked her to hand over the business that depended on the Lu family's merchant ships to her eldest son, but Gu Baishuang refused.

She didn't even bother to use excuses and just said that it was a business she had worked hard to plan and no one could get involved.

Nie Mingyuan was angry and had a big quarrel with Gu Baishuang. He forced Gu Baishuang to give up her power, but Gu Baishuang was not afraid at all.

In desperation, he brought up the stepmother's reputation, which Gu Baishuang cared about the most, but he miscalculated. Gu Baishuang made it clear that she no longer cared about her stepmother's good reputation.

Nie Mingyuan panicked.

Originally, Nie Mingyuan felt that his life was complete when his youngest son became a deputy general. However, he discovered that with his youngest son's support, his wife could no longer be controlled by him.

He cannot threaten to divorce his wife, because Gu Baishuang now has the support of her entire family, and behind this family are the Lu, Huang and Liu families.

He couldn't shake it.

Nie Mingyuan was in a panic throughout the Spring Festival.

The two stepsons wanted to put pressure on Gu Baishuang through the clan, but were rejected by Nie Mingyuan. He was afraid that his youngest son would turn against him and refuse to acknowledge him as his father after knowing the truth.

After much thought, Nie Mingyuan thought of Tong Huaqiong.

He wanted to use Tong Huaqiong to persuade Gu Baishuang to hand over the business to her two stepsons.

Tong Huaqiong noticed that this time, not only did Nie Mingyuan speak well of her, but also Gu Baishuang's two stepsons, who had only given her face in the past, were overly enthusiastic towards her.

In view of Tong Da Jiao's memories of her previous life, the Nie family's father and sons are the kind of people who will not do anything without profit.

They must have some ulterior motive in trying to curry favor with me.

At the banquet, Tong Huaqiong heard that Nie Mingyuan wanted her to persuade Gu Baishuang to hand over the business.

She sneered in her heart but remained expressionless.

Hand it over, hand over the big head ghost.

The reason why Gu Baishuang was able to control the Nie family's business step by step was because of her original idea. It was neither reasonable nor moral for her to undermine her stepdaughter.

How could Nie Mingyuan be so sure that she would help him deal with Gu Baishuang?

"......Mother-in-law, Xiaofeng has become a deputy general. It is not appropriate for his mother to show up in public to do business. I am afraid that it will become a handle for others to attack him. In addition, my third brother will take the imperial examination next year. With his qualifications, he will definitely pass the exam. By then, our family will have two officials, one civil and one military. If my wife does business again, her identity will be sensitive. On one side is her brother and on the other is her son. Others will say that she is relying on the relationship between her brother and her son to make a lot of money."

Nie Mingyuan was talking until his mouth was dry and when he saw that Tong Huaqiong didn't respond, he couldn't help but speak more seriously.

Even Gu Jingzhe's future was dragged into it.

Tong Huaqiong put down her chopsticks and said, "What's wrong with that? Xiaofeng is not the son of your Nie family. According to what you said, your son has an official position and needs to avoid suspicion. Then isn't it better for you to avoid suspicion? Because your last name is Nie, others will know that you are from the same family. On the contrary, Bai Shuang doesn't say anything outside, so who knows that she is Xiaofeng's mother."

"The imperial court has not stipulated that if a merchant's son becomes an official, the entire family's business must be closed down."

"Since you are worried that my business with Bai Shuang will affect Gu Jingzhe and Nie Xiaofeng, at worst, Bai Shuang and I will not want our son. But your surname is Nie Mingyuan, can you sever your relationship with Xiaofeng? He is listed in the Nie family tree with the surname Nie, so it cannot be severed. So if your son really regrets it, you, the father, will have to delay it."

Nie Mingyuan was dumbfounded.

Mother-in-law, what does this mean?

Let Gu Baishuang leave the Nie family and divorce like Tong Pandyi?

This is the only way to sever ties with Nie Xiaofeng.

This is absolutely not possible. If he did that, Nie Xiaofeng would not acknowledge him as his father.

What's more, Gu Baishuang now holds the lifeline of the Nie family in his hands. He will not feel at ease until he gets it.

"Nie Mingyuan, Bai Shuang has been married to you for so many years. She has taken care of your parents for ten years, taken care of your two sons until they got married, and managed the entire household. Have you ever trusted her? How much do you make every year? Where are your businesses located? Have you told Bai Shuang the whole story?"

there has never been.

Nie Mingyuan was shocked and wondered how his mother-in-law could see that.

"Now that your two sons have married and have children, and Xiaofeng has his own abilities, Baishuang has gone out to make some money, but you can't stand it and insist that she hand over the business and come back home to serve you, right?"

Tong Huaqiong questioned Nie Mingyuan harshly.

Nie Mingyuan was sweating and said, "I didn't tell her before because I thought she, as a woman, wouldn't understand..."

"Stop making excuses. You didn't understand before, but what about now? Most of your family's money now comes from her earnings through the Lu family's ships."

Nie Mingyuan choked up.

In the past two years, all the money in the family was earned by Gu Baishuang, and that was why she changed.

In the past, he was very tolerant towards the sons born to his two original wives, but now he gets angry when he is unhappy.

Originally, Nie Mingyuan wanted to find out how much business Gu Baishuang was involved in with Tong Huaqiong.

I didn't dare to ask at this time.

The eldest son of the Nie family spoke with an unhappy look on his face, "You misunderstood Dad. Dad doesn't want Mom to be tired. He wants Mom to enjoy a peaceful life. Besides, my second brother and I are married and have sons. We should take over the family business. Let Mom have a good rest. This is our filial piety."

Tong Huaqiong looked at the eldest son of the Nie family with a cold gaze and said, "Enjoy a leisurely life? Tell your father this. Since enjoying a leisurely life is so good, let him enjoy it at home. You also know that you and your second brother have already started families and have sons. Why don't you go out and fight for your own success instead of thinking about the little melons and dates in your stepmother's hands?"

The eldest brother of the Nie family was choked by these words.

The second son of the Nie family wanted to refute but couldn't find a way to do so.
