Being a Lady of an Influential Family

Chapter 267 Mid-Autumn Festival

The atmosphere of the Fu family's Mid-Autumn Festival dinner this year is a bit weird. Compared with last year, there are obviously two more young wives. Not long ago, the fourth young lady just gave birth to a young lady. It should be a happy event, but the atmosphere seems to be even worse than last year. Embarrassed and dignified.

Mrs. Fu still hasn't been released, Governor Fu seems to have made up her mind to treat this person as non-existent.

Although it was said that Mrs. Fu was unwell and had to stay in bed for a long time, but the well-informed confidants naturally knew what happened. Therefore, there is nothing ignorant about visiting Mrs. Fu recently, or sending a post to invite Mrs. Fu to a banquet or something.

People seem to have adapted well and acquiesced to the fact that Mrs. Fu is no longer in charge. As for who should be in charge of the Fu family's affairs, there are some different voices.

It stands to reason that the young lady should take over the power, but all the dignitaries in Yongcheng know that the young lady is not interested in the power in the Fu family's backyard at all. I'm not even interested in the communication between the noble ladies. After a few months of marriage, many noble ladies in Yongcheng just looked at the young lady from a distance to know what she looks like, and they didn't even say anything at all. .

The fourth young lady has just given birth to a child, and there seems to be something wrong with her marriage with Fu fourth young master, so naturally she doesn't have the energy to take care of it.

So people can only focus on the second young lady and the third young lady, but this is actually very embarrassing. These two husbands themselves have little right to speak, and they naturally have little status in the eyes of Governor Fu.

The so-called communication is not just eating, drinking, and going through the motions. If these two can't even make decisions or influence the Fu family's trivial matters, then what's the point of interacting with them?

I don't know if Governor Fu knew about these situations, but they obviously had no effect on him.

Governor Fu himself doesn't believe in his wife's diplomacy. For him, all these years, Mrs. Fu's other things are dispensable except for taking care of the Fu family.

Is it possible that the Fu family really needs the female relatives to come forward to make some connections or inquire about some news?

No need at all.

So even if Mrs. Fu is locked up, as long as someone takes care of the big and small things in the back house of the Fu family and the whole family, it will be fine. Naturally, there are people who work hard outside to do the business, so there is no need for the female family members in the back house to bother.

This is not to say that Governor Fu favors men over women and looks down on women, but that he believes that there should be a clear division of labor. If Leng Sa likes to do things by himself, go out and do things, if others like to stay at home, stay well.

He doesn't despise being pampered at home, but it's certainly not an indispensable role.

The whole family sat together and had a reunion dinner. Governor Fu never did such elegant things as admiring the moon, but this year, perhaps because of some special meals, Governor Fu stayed a little longer after the meal.

Tonight, the garden of Fu's family was also carefully arranged. Lanterns were hung everywhere in the garden, and there was a faint fragrance of sweet-scented osmanthus wafting in the air as the breeze blew.

The air in this era is still good. Although Yongcheng is a big city, most places are still dark at night, so the moon in the sky is more bright and quiet, like a silver plate hanging in the sky.

Everyone in the Fu family sat in the garden enjoying the moon, eating moon cakes and chatting, which was a rare family gathering.

Governor Fu sat at the front and talked Leng Sa to Fu Fengcheng who was closest to him, and occasionally asked Fu Yingcheng a few words.

It's just that Fu Yingcheng is really a little scared of this father, and every time he looks like a mouse seeing a cat, it really makes people speechless. The others sat back and chatted and laughed. Fu Anni and Fu Anle took their two little girls and Fu Anyan's son to play in the garden with a lantern.

Even the four concubines were present, but they sat further back.

Leng Sa took a look at the fifth aunt who was chatting with the third aunt. Her belly was only more than a month younger than Zheng Ying's. Now it looked quite amazing, and she must be about to give birth soon.

Leng Sa didn't care what she gave birth to and when she gave birth, but she still remembered what the Fifth Aunt suddenly dragged herself to say in the garden last time. Originally, I thought that there would be some action behind her, but I didn't expect the other party to act as if nothing happened. He never took the initiative to look for her or said anything, and has been raising the baby in his own yard peacefully.

Sensing her gaze, Fifth Aunt turned around and smiled at her. Although she has been a few years old, but the eyebrows are still charming and affectionate, as expected of the once famous oiran.

"What are you looking at?" Fu Fengcheng approached Leng Sa in a low voice.

Leng Sa slowly withdrew her gaze and said, "It's nothing."

Fu Fengcheng glanced thoughtfully at the Fifth Aunt who was sitting in the corner, and stretched out his hands to play with Leng Sa's fingers.

Leng Sa gave him an annoyed sideways glance, Master Leng's hand is a priceless treasure, do you think it is mud, let you hold it and play with it casually?

"Girl, how's your...car factory?" Governor Fu looked at Leng Sa and asked with great interest.

Leng Sa smiled and said, "It's going well. I didn't expect the warlord to care so much about my small factory."

Governor Fu smiled and said, "Of course you have to be concerned, don't forget...you still owe us a huge order. If the goods are unqualified by then, you will have to reject them and pay for it." Find him to take the order and collect the deposit. If this thing can't be made, don't blame him for knocking back a sum of money regardless of the face of his son and daughter-in-law.

These days, who is not short of money?

Leng Sa smiled and said, "The warlord can rest assured, when the time comes, the warlord will definitely feel that his previous decision is extremely wise."

"Oh? It seems that you have a lot of confidence in yourself." Governor Fu raised his eyebrows and said with a sneer, "I've been very busy recently, and Fu Yingcheng is following the specific matters. If you don't believe me, you can ask him?"

The eyes of other people fell on Fu Yingcheng one after another. They all knew that Fu Yingcheng had been working with Leng Sa for a long time. But other than the second young lady, the others only vaguely know that Leng Sa is now running some of Fu Fengcheng's industries, and he has also opened a car factory, but they don't know much about how they are doing.

Chi Yuanchang was even more enthusiastic, as if he had forgotten the previous embarrassment and said, "Sister-in-law, has the car been successfully produced? Can you give me a discount then?"

Leng Sa smiled and pointed to Fu Yingcheng, "Ask him."

In fact, Fu Yingcheng himself is quite a showman, but he habitually withered in front of Governor Fu and Fu Fengcheng.

Now that the two of them are present at the same time, no amount of his desire to express himself can be displayed.

I could only answer Chi Yuanchang's question dryly, and report to Governor Fu by the way, "Well...a car has come off the production line two days ago and is being tested. According to the experts specially hired by the factory, the various data It's all good. If it goes well, mass production will be ready soon. At that time...can I help give the third brother-in-law a 10% discount?" He gestured with his eyes, and if he wants more discounts, he can only go to his sister-in-law.

Leng Sa looked at Fu Yingcheng's honest appearance, and secretly thought in his heart that he had to remind Fu Yingcheng to remember the principles of business and business. Don't turn around and accidentally sell all their business secrets in front of Governor Fu.

There was a moment of silence in the garden, apparently no one expected Leng Sa to actually do it.

For people like them, it is not difficult to open a shop or factory, but automobile factories are not among them.

After all, not to mention the large investment, the sales volume is not necessarily good, and there are not many car factories in Anxia now.

Fu Anyan's eyes were even redder with jealousy. She claimed to be the third lady of the Fu family, and she always liked to present herself as an independent and capable strong woman, so she naturally did a lot of business.

It's a pity that most of her business has lost money. Over the past few years, she has not only lost the high dowry given to her by the Fu family, but also owed a lot of money.

Naturally, she dared not tell her husband and in-laws about this matter. Now that her mother is locked up again, she has nowhere to ask for help. Then I heard that Leng Sa can achieve success easily, how can I feel comfortable in my heart.

Governor Fu was in high spirits, "Oh? So fast? Go back and have a look."

Governor Fu knew where the experts in Lengsha's factory got them. They were attracted by his daughter-in-law from other places or even research institutes with high salaries. It is said that there is also a professor who is an outstanding mechanical engineer at Yongcheng University. He just glanced at a picture sent by Leng Sa, and eagerly ran to the factory to work as a part-time consultant. He even threatened that he would do it without money.

This move made Governor Fu envious and jealous. If labor and management want to find a top talent, they have to come to the door with a lot of money, and they have to pay for it like an ancestor. Why is it so easy for the eldest daughter-in-law to catch someone? Take care of your own board and lodging?

Fu Fengcheng leaned over and whispered something in Leng Sa's ear, and Leng Sa, who was about to agree, immediately looked at Governor Fu vigilantly.

Governor Fu was speechless, and glared at Fu Fengcheng, "Why are you saying bad things about me?"

Leng Sa said, "Overseer, there are only samples now, and it takes a lot of time to do safety testing and debugging, so I can't drive you away."

"..." Governor Fu glared at his son angrily, and he had a different attitude towards his daughter-in-law, waving his hands very high-spiritedly, "Don't listen to this bastard ruining your father's and my reputation, am I that kind of person? But ...Let's make an agreement, and when things come out, they must be supplied to my side first."

Of course, if the effect is not good, he still has to return it!

He is the buyer, and the one who spends the money is the uncle!

"It's natural." Leng Sa replied with a smile.

"How is the fourth daughter-in-law?" After all, it was a family gathering, Governor Fu also knew not to favor one another too much, and asked Zheng Ying, who was sitting next to Fu Yucheng with a gloomy expression.

Zheng Ying hurriedly said, "Thank you for your concern, dad. I'm fine."

Governor Fu nodded, "That's good, take good care of your body and take care of your children. If you need anything, just tell... the second and third daughter-in-law, our Fu family is not short of that. And fourth, take good care of your wife and children .”

Fu Yucheng felt a little uneasy thinking about what happened today, wondering if his father knew what was beating him, "Yes, father."

"Yes, thank you Dad."

Then there is nothing more to say.

Governor Fu felt that it wasn't because he was partial to the eldest son and daughter-in-law, but because he had nothing to say to other people.

This kind of rigid one-on-one answering is simply more annoying than fighting with those old bastards. If the son is like this, he has nothing to say to his daughter-in-law.

What can he say? Do you talk to your daughter-in-law about how to take care of the children or about clothes and jewelry? He didn't even know the former, and the latter... others still thought he was an old and dishonest person.

Therefore, the boss and his wife are very suitable for Dujun Fu.

The boss has never taken himself as a father seriously. A few years ago, when Fu Fengcheng was in his early twenties, his temper became even more violent. The adjutant next to him was terrified.

As for the eldest daughter-in-law, Governor Fu felt that sometimes he didn't think she was a daughter-in-law. He can say anything, dare to do anything, and he can do well. The key is that he doesn't treat him like the boss, and he is better than his son.

Governor Fu once even really considered Fu Fengcheng's proposal. If the boss really fails, it is also possible to train the eldest daughter-in-law to fill the gap in the grandson's success.

Of course, this is just a thought, after all, it may be more difficult to convince a girl in the six southern provinces than to train the fourth child to be a talent.

Governor Fu sat for a while and then withdrew. As soon as he withdrew, other people who were not interested in him also withdrew, such as the fourth concubine and the fifth concubine with a big belly.

Fu Anyan got up to leave with a gloomy face, but the child who was having fun with Fu Anni and the others was not happy. Fu Anyan was in a bad mood and didn't have a good word for his son. He reprimanded his son in a cold voice, scaring a smiling child into crying.

Chi Yuanchang's face was a little ugly, and in the end he could only hug his son and leave with Fu Anyan.

After Fu Anyan left, the atmosphere improved a lot.

The second young lady couldn't help but said, "If she continues to make trouble like this, the Chi family doesn't know how long they can endure."

The Chi family is not a servant of the Fu family, and Fu Anyan is not a real princess. After all, he is also a member of the party who holds the military power, so for the sake of the Fu family and Governor Fu, he can just be patient with Fu Anyan. If the Chi family's face is really trampled under their feet, the Chi family may not endure it forever.

Leng Sa lazily leaned on Fu Fengcheng's shoulder and said, "Who knows, it seems that there is a lack of social beatings." Can Fu Anyan really beat the Chi family? She doesn't think so.

The Chi family is still restless in accommodating you so much. If anything happens in the future, public opinion will be on the side of the Chi family. Even Governor Fu may not be able to say anything.

Fu Anyan is good, Dangchi's family members are weak and incompetent. I don't even think about it, if General Chi is really weak and incompetent and allows a junior to do whatever he wants, can he follow Governor Fu to fight on the battlefield and command so many soldiers to guard one side?

Fu Yucheng couldn't help but glanced at Leng Sa, but he didn't say anything.

He already knew that Leng Sa didn't like him and Fu Anyan, so he naturally didn't expect her to say anything nice.

"Sister Mingyue!" Fu Anni ran over and squatted beside Leng Sa and whispered.

Fu Fengcheng glanced at her, and said lightly, "My sister-in-law."

"Oh, sister-in-law." Fu Anni blinked her eyes at Leng Sa, Leng Sa took a small snack from the table and stuffed it into Fu Anni's mouth with a smile, "What's the matter?"

Fu Anni swallowed her snacks before saying, "Sister-in-law, shall we go out and play?"

"Going out to play?" Leng Sa was a little surprised.

Fu Anni nodded again and again, "Yes, there is a temple fair in the city tonight."

"Where is it?" Leng Sa also became interested.

Fu Anni said: "It's just over Yunlu Street, not far from our house."

Leng Sa nodded, it's really not that far away, it's only a few streets away from Fu's house, it takes about half an hour to walk there, and of course it's even closer by car.

Leng Sa stroked her chin and thought, "It seems pretty good."

"Yes, yes." Fu Anni nodded repeatedly, "Go, go."

Fu Fengcheng said, "I'm going to ask Lao Wu to take you there."

"..." Fu Anni looked at Fu Fengcheng pitifully, she wanted to go to the temple fair with sister Mingyue, who wanted to go with a stinky man.

"Uh..." Leng Sa hesitated, but she actually wanted to go a little bit, and Fu Anni's pitiful appearance made her very soft-hearted.

Before the words could be spoken, Fu Fengcheng pinched his fingers, and Fu Fengcheng said in a low voice, "It's the same if Ma'am wants to go and I will go with you." Inexplicably, I heard a bit of grievance from the words.

Leng Sa immediately remembered that she had promised to stay with Fu Fengcheng all day today, Young Master Fu was unhappy.

Looking at Fu Fengcheng's handsome face with slightly pursed lips, and Fu Anni's expectant face, Master Leng made a painful choice.

Since it is destined to hurt one, then...you can only wrong the one that is not so lethal. That's right, Lord Leng is sometimes so bullying and afraid of the tough. Of course, Young Master Fu's extremely handsome face also has a lethal bonus.

Reaching out to touch Fu Anni's small face, "I still have something to do with your elder brother, can I ask Fu Yangcheng to accompany you out to play?"

"Oh." Although Fu Anni was a little disappointed, she nodded obediently. The big eyes rolled around the two of them, leaned into Leng Sa's ear and whispered, "Then I wish sister Mingyue and elder brother a happy Mid-Autumn Festival." After speaking, she stood up and ran over Pull Fu Yangcheng, "Yangyang, Anle, let's go!"

Leng Sa blinked her eyes, looking at the back of Fu Anni who was holding the awkward Fu Yangcheng with one hand and the well-behaved Fu Anle with the other, and was speechless for a while.

Has this little girl learned something strange recently? Why does she feel that there is something in her words?

The three children ran away, Fu Fengcheng glanced at the crowd and said, "It's almost there, let's all leave."

That's right, it wasn't a close family at first, and sitting here for most of the night is actually quite difficult, so it's better to go back and do something you want to do.

The second young lady smiled, "We are also planning to take our two children out for a stroll."

The third young lady looked at Fu Pingcheng and said, "We don't bother to go out, let's go back and rest early. Fourth siblings, you should also rest earlier, your health is important."

Zheng Ying nodded and got up, "Okay, let's go back too."

Everyone went back separately, but Fu Fengcheng and Leng Sa did not go back to the yard but walked towards the door.

Leng Sa was a little puzzled, "Where did you go?"

Fu Fengcheng said, "Madam, don't you want to go out to play? Xu Shaoming drove outside and waited."

Leng Sa blinked, leaned over to look at Fu Fengcheng with a smile, "You've already prepared it?" No wonder he refused to go out to play with Fu Anni.

Fu Fengcheng smiled faintly, "Will Madam go?"

"Go!" Leng Sa resolutely said, if there is fun, why not go? And she was also a little curious about how Young Master Fu planned to arrange this Mid-Autumn Festival.

It was the first time to spend the festival with a handsome guy, Master Leng expressed a little excitement.
