Chapter 33: The Four Major Families in Northern Beijing
"The Chi family in Jingbei?"
Li Siwei frowned and thought for a moment, "Isn't it just one of the most powerful families in northern Beijing, with one daughter and three sons."
"The eldest daughter, Chi Manning, is Zhou Chengfeng's mother."
"And the eldest son, Chi Rubai, is now the actual ruler of the Chi family."
"The second son, Chi Haoqing, is said to be a well-known lawyer."
"The third son, Chi Yuheng, is the youngest, but he didn't rely on the Chi family. He made his own way in Country M's financial circles. After founding HL and becoming famous, he..."
Li Siwei suddenly stopped talking halfway.
Just now at the dinner table, she heard her father and Chi Yuheng talking about future development. She remembered that Chi Yuheng had clearly said that he was already planning to gradually shift the focus of his business back to China.
But in her previous life… until her death, HL hadn't shifted its main operations back to China, and even invested very little in domestic projects…
"Why are not you talking?"
Seeing her suddenly stop, Lu Yueci asked with a smile.
"Ah? No..." Li Siwei came back to her senses, "That's all I know."
"Mom, you know, I've never really cared about these things." She smiled awkwardly.
Knowing that this was probably all she knew, Lu Yueci did not continue to ask her, but said:
"Have you heard of the four major families in northern Beijing?"
"Yeah, I've heard of it." Li Siwei nodded.
Lu Yueci turned the ice pack in her hand and continued, "Chi, Hua, Shen, and Song are the four major families in northern Beijing."
"Although these are just rumors spread among the people, the so-called four major families are ranked in no particular order, but only the Jingbei Chi family is firmly in the top spot."
"The Chi family has been around for hundreds of years. It's said that when the emperor was still in power, the Chi family was already one of the most prestigious families in northern Beijing. They've survived for hundreds of years, so they must have a solid foundation."
"When the emperor was in power?" Li Siwei blinked in surprise. "Wouldn't that be even more…"
"That's right." Lu Yueci nodded. "Your grandfather had some friendship with Old Master Chi. They would occasionally visit each other when they were young. After he came back, he only mentioned the Chi family to us in four words..."
"Which four words?" Li Siwei asked.
"Unfathomable."
Li Siwei: ...Wow...
To receive such an evaluation from my grandfather, it seems that the Chi family is indeed extraordinary!
"What kind of unfathomable method is this?" Li Siying clearly heard some interest.
"In addition to having absolute say in the business world, the Chi family also has close ties with the military and political circles."
Lu Yueci's expression was slightly serious. "I remember hearing your grandfather say that among the elders of the Chi family, there are old heroes with red backgrounds."
"Don't think that everyone is only focusing on the people in the Chi family's main family. The lesser-known Chi family branches and the elders who keep a low profile and stay away from the world are also forces that the Chi family cannot underestimate."
"It is said that several branches of the Chi family have already established roots overseas and have close ties with local forces."
"so……"
Lu Yueci looked at Li Siwei and said, "The Chi family is a bottomless pool. It's probably even more difficult to understand than those wealthy families that appear glamorous on the surface but are filthy inside. This water... is not easy to wade into."
"Well, that sounds quite troublesome."
Li Siying did not realize the deeper meaning of her mother's words. She was only thinking about the intrigues among the aristocratic families in the novels. She curled her lips and shook her head.
Seeing her like this, Lu Yueci knew that the child didn't listen at all, so she didn't continue.
Fortunately, during the dinner tonight, she only noticed that Chi Yuheng treated his baby a little differently, while Li Siwei seemed to be not very interested in him.
As for this bracelet...
Lu Yueci slowly withdrew her gaze. There was no rush anyway, so she could deal with future problems later...
The bloody drama of the wealthy family in Li Siwei's mind finally ended. She couldn't help but look up at Li's mother and asked curiously:
"What about the remaining three? Are they all so powerful?"
Lu Yueci smiled slightly and shook her head, "You can say that, but you can't say that completely."
Li Siwei: “……???”
Lu Yueci continued, "Since they are known as the 'Four Great Families of Northern Beijing,' they are naturally more deeply rooted than other large families, and their strength cannot be underestimated. However, compared to the Chi family... they are still not in the same league."
"Among the remaining three families, the Hua family, the Shen family, and the Song family, only the Hua family has more say."
"Hua family?" Li Siwei raised her eyebrows.
"Yes, it's Chi Yuheng's grandfather's house." Lu Yueci explained: "Chi Yuheng's mother, Hua Wan, is the eldest daughter of the late Mr. Hua, and the elder sister of the current head of the Hua family."
"And the Hua family, thanks to this marriage and the powerful alliance with the Chi family, has grown stronger over the years. In addition, the younger generations are also very promising and do not need the adults to worry about them at all. Therefore, they have completely overshadowed the Shen and Song families and firmly sat in the second place among the four major families."
Li Siwei nodded in understanding, "What about the Shen and Song families?"
"The Shen family's situation is relatively special, and the Song family..."
Lu Yueci smiled and said, "Years ago, when Mr. Song passed away, the Song family had an internal struggle that lasted for several years. It consumed a lot of vitality and almost fell out of the four major families."
"Later, the second branch of the Song family gained power and took control of the Song family. The eldest son of the second branch of the Song family married the daughter of the Hua family, becoming related to the Hua family by marriage. Only then did the situation gradually stabilize."
Li Siwei: "After a thorough investigation, I realized that the four major families in northern Beijing are all one family."
"That's not the case." Lu Yueci raised her eyes. "The Chi, Hua, and Song families are indeed related by marriage, but they have no kinship with the Shen family."
"Oh?" Li Siwei was a little surprised. "So, the Shen family is a breath of fresh air?"
"It's not the Qingliu family." Lu Yueci smiled a little deeply. "In my opinion, the Shen family doesn't want to have ties with the other three families, but the negotiations haven't been concluded yet."
"Are you being excluded?" Li Siwei had a strange expression on her face.
Lu Yueci: "..."
Shaking her head, she continued, "Have you heard of Shen Xinkui, the eldest daughter of the Shen family?"
After frowning and thinking for two seconds, Li Siying suddenly slapped her thigh, "Is it that Chinese-style female designer who was all the rage online a while ago?"
"Yes, that's her." Lu Yueci looked at her twice before saying, "Although she is the stepdaughter of the Shen family, because Shen Guodong loves her so much, outsiders also treat her as the daughter of the Shen family."
"And the one I just said about not having a deal yet was referring to her."
"Who does she want to marry?" Li Siwei was curious. "The Song family? The Hua family? Or the Chi family?"
Lu Yueci: "It's Mr. Chi who just sent you back."
Li Siwei: “……!!!”
What?!
It’s actually Chi Yuheng? ! !
