room. Her mother turned around and brought another fruit platter, invitingly offering it."Hungry Have some fruit to tide you over!"She could only nod.Lin's mother walked out with a smile.Lin Meng star...Rong Qi once visited on a weekend and happened to catch all three grandchildren. He jokingly brought up a business management issue and asked the three grandchildren for their solutions. After hearing their respective proposals, Rong Qi was immediately impressed. He quickly praised all three grandchildren before promptly requesting that his grandson be sent over to learn from them as well.
This immediately drew three cold, disdainful stares. Even Rong Henduo, who had come to the door himself and later joined this family, felt a possessive emotion in his heart and became quite exclusionary.
Rong Ling was even more impolite and directly gave Rong Qi a single character.
"Go away!"
How can this be an orphanage They're not poor and unable to afford children; on the contrary, they're all rich beyond measure, yet they want to send their children here!
A man like Rong Hengduo, that's a special case among special cases! Besides, he wouldn't give face to anyone!
Rung Qi chuckled nervously and stopped talking. Even so, in the following few visits, Rung Qi still received cold stares from Xiao Youyou and Xiao Haohuo who were a bit stingy in certain aspects.
No matter what, Xiao Youyou, Xiao Haohuo, and even Rong Hentuo received surprisingly high praise. This spread quickly. It's understandable that Xiao Youyou and Xiao Haohuo are praised since they are Lin Meng's sons after all. However, it was Rong Hentuo who attracted a lot of envy. People said this boy wasn't ordinary; his vision was too sharp. He befriended both Rong Ling and Lin Meng early on. Now, he would surely be someone who thrives in the face of change. But with Rong Qi's rejection as a precedent, other members of the Rong family, despite their envy, were smart enough to refrain from bothering him. Instead, they pressured their own descendants to learn more from Xiao Youyou and their group, becoming much more insistent about this approach.
Getting back to the point, Xiao Youyou, after these days carefully reviewing the information she had gathered about the He family, thought deeply about it. She savored the sweetness of the grapes, and more profoundly understood the tartness hidden beneath it, before continuing.
“As for the He family, the second son's family has been serving as officials outside all this time. They must have gotten used to being in charge. However, Old Madam He has a strong desire for control. One mountain cannot accommodate two tigers, so there will definitely be conflict eventually. (..tw無彈窗廣告) Looking at Old Madam He's current estrangement from the eldest and third sons, it seems she will definitely suffer in the future. And since she is paralyzed in bed and can't do anything easily, there's a high chance that she will be confined to her room eventually.”
The little guy's eyes lit up and he smiled. "Daddy, is Youyou's analysis right"
Rong Ling nodded slightly.
The little boy's eyes lit up even brighter, and he continued, "But Old Lady He still has quite a few valuable things in her hands, so this conflict definitely won't erupt so quickly. Old Lady He still has some tricks up her sleeve. If she reacts, I'm afraid she'll only delay the time of its eruption, hmm..."
The little guy narrowed his eyes and tentatively asked, "Daddy, can you leave this to Youyou Youyou won't cause trouble, he'll know when the right time is to strike. We won't be directly involved, but adding a few more sparks wouldn't hurt, would it
Lin Meng was stunned, feeling deeply that the more this son learned from his father, the more he would resemble him. At just five years old, he was already so deep and cunning, able to come up with such a scheme. As a mother, she didn't know whether she should feel powerless or proud of him.
All in all, looking at her son like this, her emotions became a little complicated. However, upon hearing Rong Ling's very affirmative reply to the little guy, she felt relieved again.
"Alright, I'll make Ah Yi cooperate with you!"
This is what Ah Yi gave him, obeying his orders.
This is a huge affirmation!
She trusted her husband implicitly. His capabilities far surpassed hers. Since he said so, she would just watch and see. From the very beginning, their son had fallen into his father's gaze. Everything was unfolding according to his plan. As he said, their son was destined for an extraordinary path. (..tw) For their son, he undoubtedly had a complete arrangement in mind, and all she could do was assist him from the sidelines, guiding her son's character in subtle ways. Thinking about it differently, if their son grew up to resemble his father, it wouldn't be bad at all. At least, she would never have to worry about him getting taken advantage of.
"That's Haohao as the assistant to big brother!" At that time, little Haohao chimed in without showing any weakness.
Rong Ling said, “I'll leave this to your brother. If you want to be his assistant, go find him. He's in full charge of this.”
Xiao Hao hurried to turn his head and apply to Xiao Youyou. "Brother, Haohao wants to be your assistant."
Little YouYou pretended to be deep in thought, as if seriously considering. Little HaoHao became impatient and immediately grabbed Little YouYou's hand. He proudly boasted about how capable and useful he was, almost bragging himself into being the number one child prodigy. However, this little boy always spoke with a soft, milky voice, like he hadn't been weaned yet. Such childish innocence, yet such a grown-up demeanor, made Lin Meng laugh heartily. Even Little YouYou couldn't help but smile.
"You're teasing me on purpose, brother!"
Little Hao, puffed up with righteous indignation, stomped his foot and ran back into Lin Meng's arms, jabbing her accusingly. "Mommy, look, my brother is bullying me!"
Lin Meng patted Xiao Haohuo's head and chuckled softly, but didn't say anything. Xiao Haohuo made a series of silly faces at Xiao Youyou. The family seemed so happy and harmonious, which filled Rong Hendu with a faint pang of envy.
Having settled the affairs of Mrs. He, he actually wanted to join in too. He'd lived this long and never done anything on his own. This showed how powerful his uncle was – such a big thing, his uncle said let go and just let it go, trusting Little Youyou so much. He was only five years old! What was he doing at five Probably still playing around in kindergarten. Even though sometimes Grandpa took him to the company to show off, saying how young he was and already learning from his grandpa, that kind of "learning" was just scratching the surface. How could it compare to Youyou now!
Uncle is really great!
The little aunt is just letting it all happen, and she’s not even stopping them. She trusts Youyou and Haohuo so much! It must be amazing to feel that trusted. Youyou and Haohuo are truly lucky.
He wanted to join, but couldn't bring himself to ask. Firstly, he was older than Youyou by more than three years. How could he possibly be the little follower, trailing behind him Secondly, he was afraid of being rejected. He still felt reserved and hesitant, so he couldn't truly let go and relax. What's more, Youyou and Haohao had always been hostile towards him, making it difficult for him to join their group. However, this was a really good opportunity. Since both Youyou and Haohao were participating, his absence would be a real shame.
This hesitation lingered even after the two hours of study had ended and he was on his way home. When he arrived, he instinctively met Du Caiyi's inquiry about what he had learned today with a few vague answers. He didn't know why, but he felt a little resistant to his grandmother's persistent questioning after each study session. The first time or second time, he would answer honestly out of consideration for his grandmother's concern during that time. But as she kept asking, she began to inquire about his uncle and aunt, and a feeling of discomfort arose in him, like being interrogated. He didn't want to say more.
Just then, the grandfather said to him, "When your grandmother asks you questions, you don't have to be completely honest and tell her everything. You have a scale in your heart. You know what to say and what not to say. Remember, this learning opportunity is rare and precious. Make the most of it."
Although Grandpa didn't explain himself very clearly, he understood what was being said. So, he simply followed his own heart and decided not to say anything more. This attitude made Grandma angry. But his uncle's teachings had made him realize that sometimes people should be a little more reckless and not worry too much. Doing what you think is right, sometimes, even if it means pushing away those closest to you.
Grandma had turned rather cold towards him.
But it doesn't matter. You are not the Renminbi, you can't expect everyone to love you. He still has his grandfather. As long as his grandfather truly cares for him, that's enough. Besides, he also has his uncles, maternal grandmother and paternal grandfather who are all good to him. Think about it, even Uncle only had Mom Rong's love back then, yet he grew up so well. He has so many people caring for him, there is no need to greedily crave the love of so many people.
He gave his grandmother some irrelevant answers after she asked him questions. He could tell that his grandmother was unhappy with his responses, but he didn't care. He went to check on his grandfather first, then glanced at his already sleeping younger brother, and finally returned to his own room. After washing up, he did some homework and read a book, but when he lay down in bed, he couldn't fall asleep quickly.
The thing he had kept in his heart, he still couldn't let go.
He thought, and got up. He groped his way to Rong Fei Wu's room in the dark. To this day, Rong Fei Wu was still sleeping in the guest room, sharing a room with Du Cai Yi. Officially, it was said that he was afraid of infecting Du Cai Yi with the illness. Du Cai Yi couldn't make a fuss, because if things really escalated, she would definitely lose face, so she just endured it silently.
Hongduo was gone, so naturally there was only Rong Feiwu left in the guest room.
Fengyi saw Rong Hendu as he opened the door. He was not surprised in the slightest.
"You still have a lot to learn about keeping secrets!" Rong Feiwu said with a smile, lying back on the bed. He wasn't actually asleep; he had been waiting for Rong Henduo. After seeing his grandson's face tonight, he had a pretty good idea what was going on and chose not to press him, waiting for him to speak up himself.
Not bad, this kid hasn't wasted his time training. He came looking for me.
Upon hearing this, Rong Heng felt ashamed and was comforted by Rong Fei Wu. His calloused hand gently patted his head, bringing a sense of warmth to him.
This is his grandfather! Also, the person in this world he can share his feelings with without any reservation!
"Grandpa…"
He didn't hold back any longer and told everything.
Rong Feiwu remained silent for a moment before speaking to him.
"Duodu, some things you can be greedy for, some things you shouldn't."
After saying that, he looked at him intently.fore her was no ordinary person; she seemed impervious to insults, unfazed and calm. Her anger felt like it was hitting a soft cotton ball—it dissipated instantly, leaving nothing but frustration.In t...
