Chapter 1184: Chapter 1185: Consecutive Face-Slapping
Zhou Jun, having made up his mind, naturally first discussed it with his family and initially went to cry his grievances to his grandmother.
He lamented about losing his father at a young age, his unfortunate fate, how everyone looked down on him, and even a small businessman dared to bully him. He worked earnestly on his business and just when things started to look up, someone disrupted it.
"I even thought of earning money to buy a Western-style building for you, Grandma, and raising a little foreign dog, but there are people who can’t stand my filial piety. Anyway, I’m just a boy without a father to care for me, I don’t want to live anymore!" Even though Zhou Jun was obviously throwing a tantrum, his grandmother was moved to tears, and held onto him tightly, unwilling to let go.
Zhou Jun’s grandmother, coming from an influential family and being a quintessential noblewoman, highly valued family status and education. After hearing this from her grandson, she grew angry and began to remember more upon inquiry.
"Is it that Jiang girl, the one whose mother was a Cultural Work Troupe director?" Grandma Zhou asked.
Zhou Jun spat: "What director? She’s just a shameless woman. I heard she took someone’s husband when she was young, and later even helped her daughter to steal one, causing someone to have a miscarriage. At that time, you were returning to our hometown visiting relatives so you weren’t aware, but the matter was widely talked about. Now this Chiang Qing is likely enraged and is attacking others. She dared to tamper with the food from the company I represent, framing and sabotaging me, and people could get sick from it. Grandma, I’m suffering! They’re bullying me because I don’t have a father!"
With these words, he ’cried’ again on her lap.
"They’re all bullying our orphaned mother and child." Grandma Zhou also felt overwhelmed with grief, quickly soothed her grandson with a few words, and then called the Chen Family to pour out her grievances.
Thus, there was an incident at the nightclub.
This was not the end of it. Just at that time, during an event honoring the Old Red Army, even family members were invited, and Old Master Zhou along with Grandma Zhou attended.
Then, naturally, at the venue, they encountered Jiang Conghe and his wife.
Grandma Zhou’s face turned green on the spot. These two people, with no upbringing, what is passed down from one generation to the next is crooked and corrupt, the old are like this, and so are the young, bullying her grandson.
When Lu Shufen and a few ladies came to propose a toast, Grandma Zhou snubbed them right there.
Everyone present were family members of the Old Red Army, so with Grandma Zhou’s overt display, Lu Shufen was left at a loss.
Someone attempted to mediate, saying we old folks should educate the young properly.
"Yes, if there’s something you’re dissatisfied with, feel free to reprimand us." Lu Shufen, after being a commander’s wife for years, was well seasoned by now.
"Reprimand you? I wouldn’t dare. Your Loo Family, raising good daughters, setting their sights on other people’s husbands and seizing them as their own. Begetting daughters and raising them like this, letting them wreak havoc on others, such corrupt family conduct. As for this glass of wine, with the education of my Northeast Fu Family, I dare not drink it." Grandma Zhou snorted.
Grandma Zhou was from the renowned Northeast Fu Family, which everyone knew was a noble lineage, descendants of the Qing Dynasty Manchu, with naturally high standards of upbringing. By saying this, it was akin to delivering several slaps to Lu Shufen’s face.
Lu Shufen was bewildered, looking at Grandma Zhou’s moving lips, unable to utter a single word.
What was going on, why suddenly mention her past, and all those matters, how dare this old lady!
Lu Shufen wanted to retort, but she didn’t dare. Everyone present was a family member of the Old Red Army; if she dared act rashly, Jiang Conghe would probably divorce her as soon as she got home.
But with Grandma Zhou humiliating her like this, how could she ever hold her head high in high society again?
