Back to youth, the child's mother became a female president

Hua Tingrui stood up. He was tall and slender, with cold and deep eyes. Without a smile, he looked at the person who had just spoken, Hua Qifei's son Hua Jianming, "Third Uncle, what does this mean?"

Although he was the elder, Hua Jianming was afraid of this cousin of the master family. He was also a coward, and could only stammer back at Hua Tingrui: "What do you mean, you...you know it in your heart!"

Hua Tingjin also asked, "We really don't quite understand, so please give us some advice, Uncle San. Just now you said that we are ungrateful, but our Hua family has always treated guests with courtesy, so how can we be ungrateful?" He spoke respectfully and gently, but every word was full of thorns, leaving people speechless.

"I..." Hua Jianming was speechless.

Hua Jianming felt ashamed and angry. He wanted to say something, but was restrained by a young man behind him, who reminded him quietly: "Dad, this is not home."

Hua Jianming felt annoyed, but finally suppressed his impulse.

Hua Lixin apologized to Hua Tingjin: "Aunt, eldest cousin, second cousin, my father made a slip of the tongue. I apologize to you on his behalf."

Mu Xiuzhi said nothing and watched all this quietly.

Hua Qifei, who was not involved, quickly observed Mu Xiuzhi's expression, but he could not tell her mood, so he acted as a peacemaker as usual, coughed twice, and pretended to scold his son: "Jianming, how can you talk like that!"

He still smiled amiably, "I'm sorry, Xiuzhi. Jianming has been spoiled by me over the years and has no sense of propriety. His personality is similar to Tingjue's. Please bear with him."

It's a double entendre, this is Hua Qifei's usual trick.

"Heh..." Mu Xiuzhi ignored his despicable tricks, lowered her head and took a sip of tea, then raised her head, "I will spoil my own son, but I generally won't spoil other people's sons."

After being ignored time and again, Hua Qifei stopped pretending and completely fell out with him. His kind and gentle expression disappeared in an instant, replaced by coldness.

"Spoiling a child is like killing him. It doesn't matter if my son is useless. After all, he doesn't affect the overall situation of the Hua family. But..." He deliberately left himself unsaid.

The old fox's tail could no longer be hidden. Mu Xiuzhi sneered, "Uncle, today is the first day of the new year. We should be in harmony, but you seem to have other ideas."

Hua Qifei's eyes flashed with cunning and complacency, "Xiuzhi, as the head of the Hua family, you should know that the development of the family is more important than anything else. You should put the overall situation first and never abuse your power for personal gain."

He acted like an elder and said, "The development must be coordinated and healthy, otherwise it is easy to be alone. The group is thriving, but the dividends of this branch company have shrunk a bit. Xingyao Real Estate, Hengtian Pharmaceutical, Jucheng Furniture, Mingyue Mountain Resort, Guangmao Shopping Mall, etc., the income has been ups and downs in recent years, showing a downward trend. Even though the Hua family is rich and powerful, they can't stand the family property depreciating like water, right?"

Hua Qifei held his grandson's hand and said proudly: "Our Li Xin graduated from Stanford last year. He went to a branch company to gain experience right after graduation. It only took him three months to turn the company around."

He smiled with a dagger hidden in his heart, pressed on step by step, and revealed the real purpose of his visit, "I think he can take over those loss-making branches."

Hua Lixin was dressed in a suit and looked polite and gentle. He stood there silently without expressing his opinion.

Mu Xiuzhi was still smiling, but her voice was a little colder: "Uncle, that belongs to my Tingjue, maybe you remembered it wrongly."

"Xiuzhi, even though I'm old and my eyesight is blurry, I'm still an elder in the clan and I haven't reached the level of Alzheimer's. The ancestral precepts say, 'Any incompetent descendants of the Hua family must step down and give way to others for the sake of the overall situation.'" Hua Qifei slowly read out the ancestral precepts.

"Am I right, niece-in-law?"

Mu Xiuzhi smiled instead of getting angry, with a chilling murderous look in her eyes, "Who is the incompetent one? I'm not sure, uncle, why don't you speak frankly."

Hearing these words, Jiang Wangshu's fingertips curled up secretly, his dark eyes were gloomy, and a ray of dark light flashed across them.

Uncle, right? Oh, she doesn't have the good qualities of respecting the elderly and loving the young.

"An incompetent person means a person without ability." She interrupted Hua Qifei's next words and everyone's attention was drawn to her.

Jiang Wangshu has a cold appearance and a temperament like the mist in the mountains, but her words are sharp and harsh: "I have seen people use it to describe middle-aged people in their 40s and 50s who are still relying on their parents, but I have never seen it used to criticize college students who have just entered the society." At the end, she even curled her lips and sneered: "There are really all kinds of things in the world."

"You..." Hua Jianming's face darkened instantly after being poked, his eyes widened with anger, and he pointed at Jiang Wangshu in frustration, "You...where did you come from, little girl? Is this the place for you to talk?"

Jiang Wangshu was never afraid of anyone. He curled his lips and said, "If I become like you when I get old, I would rather be a little girl and stay young forever!"

Hua Qifei was also angry, with a sullen face. It was well known that his son was not ambitious, so he had trained his grandson, but it was a humiliation to be exposed in public!

He glared at Mu Xiuzhi gloomily, and said fiercely, "Niece-in-law, is this how you indulge your child? How dare you speak rudely to your elders!"

Mu Xiuzhi said lightly: "Little girl, she is young and hot-tempered and doesn't know much. Why are you guys so angry with a little girl?"

With just one word, he lightly blocked it.

"As for what you just said about taking over, I don't agree. The family property belongs to whoever it belongs to. If Li Xin wants to gain experience, I can arrange it for him. There are many opportunities overseas."

"The ancestral teachings you mentioned..."

"Have you forgotten another rule? If anyone in the clan has doubts, they must wait for the next head of the family to take over and let the shareholders and directors decide on the distribution rights."

Mu Xiuzhi's eyes were dim, and she spoke slowly, "Don't forget, I am still the head of the Hua family, and I haven't given up my power yet."

"Cousin, uncle." She recited each word one by one. The sound was shocking, like a heavy hammer hitting every ambitious covetous person.

Hua Qifei frowned and glared, pursed his lips and confronted Mu Xiuzhi. Hua Jianming was frightened and they stopped talking, and Hua Lixin's firm gaze was also shaken.

But Hua Qifei came back to his senses immediately. He stood up, flicked his sleeves, and snorted coldly: "Okay, then we'll wait and see who is capable of inheriting these properties!"
