Wei Shaoting's second uncle looked at the people at the table, especially his son who was clamoring to rip off Lin Yan's head and use it as a ball. He didn't know whether to cry or laugh.
He felt that his family was being blindly optimistic. After the Lin family annexed the Song family, they would inevitably target the Wei family. This was beyond doubt, especially since his nephew had offended the Lin family kid.
"All of you shut up, a bunch of gluttons who only know how to eat. Wei Lin, shut your mouth!"
While there was a commotion below, the Wei family patriarch, sitting at the head of the table, spoke. With a roar, the table instantly fell silent. Thirteen-year-old Wei Lin was so scared that he trembled and almost fell off his chair. He held onto the table and rushed into his mother's arms.
"Mom!"
"Brother, Wei Lin is still young, why are you scolding him!"
"Scolding him? You ask why I'm scolding him. He's thirteen years old, and instead of studying properly, he's out gallivanting every day. What else can I say to him? If he could be half as diligent as the Lin family kid, our Wei family wouldn't have ended up like this."
The head of the Wei family said angrily to Wei Shaoting's second aunt.
Wei Shaoting's second aunt pouted and didn't say anything further. Although she didn't retort verbally, she was thinking to herself.
Your son, Wei Shaoting, is also a good-for-nothing! My Wei Lin is much better than your son! If it weren't for your son, our Wei family wouldn't be in this situation.
Of course, she only dared to think this in her heart. In front of Wei Laosan, she didn't have the guts.
In the Wei family, Wei Laosan's authority was absolute.
"Wei Hua, tell me your thoughts."
The table quieted down, and Wei Laosan looked at Wei Hua.
Although everyone present disliked Wei Hua, Wei Laosan had high hopes for this son.
"Father, I think we should negotiate with the Song family."
When Wei Laosan asked, Wei Hua, who had been sitting beside him without speaking, straightened his body and said in a deep voice.
"Heh heh, negotiate with the Song family? Why negotiate with the Song family? The Song family is about to collapse."
The one who said this was Wei Shaoting's aunt. Among those present, she disliked Wei Hua the most.
"Shut up. Wei Hua, continue."
Seeing her interrupt, Wei Laosan stopped her.
"Judging by the current situation, the Song family is definitely finished. Their strength is far from what it used to be, and the Lin family will inevitably annex them slowly. Given the personality of the Song family patriarch, Song Yi, he won't run away. He will likely retaliate against the Lin family with all his might. We can negotiate with the Song family and help them deal with the Lin family."
"Tch, then tell me, why should we help them?"
Wei Shaoting's aunt said dismissively again. Why would they help the Song family for no reason?
"The condition for negotiation is to take over the remaining forces of the Song family!"
Wei Hua ignored her and continued.
"Instead of being annexed by the Lin family, it's better to hand them over to us, the Wei family. This way, we will have the strength to contend with the Lin family."
As soon as his words fell, Wei Hua indicated that he had finished speaking.
Upon hearing Wei Hua's words, Wei Laosan carefully analyzed them. These words were commendable. Their Wei family's business areas bordered the Song family's, so it might not be impossible.
He understood the old man Song Yi's temperament, and it was indeed highly probable that he would fight the Lin family to the death.
"Well said!"
Wei Hua's words made his second uncle, who had always disliked Wei Hua, nod in approval. With this idea in mind, the negotiation with the Song family could be entrusted to them.
"Tch, pure luck."
Wei Shaoting's aunt snorted coldly.
"Shut up!"
Wei Laosan's authoritative voice sounded again.
"Do you have any other ideas? If not, we will proceed according to Wei Hua's plan. You may be dismissed. The meeting is adjourned."
No one below spoke. They couldn't think of a better plan than Wei Hua's.
With Wei Laosan's order, this Wei family family meeting concluded.
.............................................................................
Modu, opposite Tomson Riviera.
The three members of the Su family were packing up the new storefront that Su Chen had bought at the entrance. The storefront Su Chen bought was not very large due to its location, but the price was not low, otherwise Chen Shenglong would not have been able to fool Su Chen.
The shop was less than a hundred square meters. Su Chen planned to open a flower shop for his mother, so she wouldn't be too tired and would have something to do.
Looking at the renovated flower shop, Zhang Yingrong couldn't help but sigh.
Just over a month ago, they were office workers living in the old town. Now they were living in a big house and had their own shop. Life was truly unpredictable.
Of course, Zhang Yingrong also understood that all of this was thanks to her daughter finding a good son-in-law.
Speaking of her son-in-law, Zhang Yingrong couldn't help but show a happy expression. Her son-in-law was not only handsome and rich, but also very gentle.
She had been in society for many years, and she could tell to some extent whether Lin Yan was faking it or if it was his true nature.
"Mom, do you think a Clivia would look good here?"
"Yes."
Hearing her son's words, Zhang Yingrong came back to her senses and nodded.
Su Chen placed a pot of Clivia down and wiped the sweat from his forehead.
"Dad, don't carry it anymore, I'll do it."
Seeing his father still carrying flowers, Su Chen quickly went to help.
"It's nothing, just a pot of flowers. Back in the day, your dad..."
"Dad, stop bragging. How old are you, still talking about the past?"
Su Chen snatched the flower from Su Hongyun's hand and placed it on the display stand, teasing him.
With the father and son's efforts, the display stands in the shop were already filled with fresh flowers.
However, just as the Su family of three were happily busy, the driver, Xiao Zhang, walked in from the entrance.
"Uncle and Aunt, the young master wants us to hurry and move to Kyoto. There's an emergency."
