Chapter 1063: The Unspeakable Secret
"Oh? Lingshan is back?" Chen Daoling's face flashed with joy.
"Well, I was just knocked unconscious by your son's order." Zhao Tiezhu shrugged and said.
"What? That scoundrel!" Chen Daoling slammed the table hard and said, "Now let's go up together to see Lingshan?"
"Okay!" Zhao Tiezhu smiled and nodded.
Upstairs, in Chen Lingshan's room, Chen Daoling looked at Chen Lingshan with her eyes closed, sighed, and said, "Little friend Tiezhu, do you know that Lingshan is the most beloved of my many granddaughters?"
"Oh? You love her the most and force her to marry someone you don't even know?" Zhao Tiezhu asked.
"There are still many reasons that are not humane to outsiders." Chen Daoling said, "Since you are willing to help Lingshan, I will also tell you those reasons. If you really decide to help Lingshan, with your Zhao family As for the identity of the heir, those who want to come to the Cui family will not say anything, but there will always be a little resentment. If you are not willing to help Lingshan after listening to what I said, then I ask you not to, old man. Interfering in the family affairs of my Chen family, after all, as a member of the Chen family, you always need to contribute your strength when the Chen family needs you, even me is no exception! As for Lingshan, what her father brought to you! If you are disrespectful and hurt, our Chen family will do our best to compensate you!"
"Oh?" Zhao Tiezhu looked at Chen Daoling in surprise. It seems that the marriage between the Chen and Cui families is not that simple in the ordinary sense!
"There are a lot of things involved here!" Chen Daoling said, "I'll tell you slowly. You sit down." Chen Daoling motioned for Zhao Tiezhu to sit down. Zhao Tiezhu found a chair and sat down carefully. looked at Chen Daoling.
"My Chen family started to make a fortune from my father's generation, which lasted for decades, so we have the current family business. But you may not know that not long after Lingshan's mother passed away more than ten years ago, I The Chen family encountered a great turmoil caused by your Zhao family more than ten years ago. During that great turmoil, the strength of my Chen family was severely damaged, so I had to marry into the Zhu family, which relieved the situation. However, in exchange, Twenty percent of the shares of my Chen family belong to the Zhu family! At that time, the Zhu family promised to stabilize the precarious Chen family and restore it to its peak level. At this point, after more than ten years, We, Chen and Zhu’s family, have achieved development!”
"Then there was a period of quiet development. However, two years ago, the Zhu family's property shrank due to some reasons. Later, they even sold off a lot of properties to survive that difficult period. Maybe you also thought that back then, Among the properties sold by the Zhu family, there is 20% of the shares of my Chen family!"
"It just so happens that the 20% of the shares were bought by someone from the Cui family!"
"Since my Chen family listed about 50% of its properties back then, the total outstanding shares of my Chen family accounted for about 30%. Of course, many of these belong to my Chen family. Shareholders! However, what we didn’t expect was that the Cui family secretly purchased almost 30% of the shares at a high price. With the 20% of the shares held by the Cui family, the Cui family could almost In an instant, we became the largest shareholders of the Chen family! Because as the current largest shareholders, my son and I only held 47% of the shares! At that time, the Chen family was almost in dire straits. Because as long as the other party comes to my Chen family with about 50% of the shares, they can easily get the right to speak. At that time, the chairman of the Chen family will no longer be me, nor my son. , but a member of the Cui family! This is almost related to the life and death of my Chen family!"
"It was at that time that the Cui family made a request, that is, let Lingshan marry Cui Xiao, the son of the head of the Cui family, and then the Cui family would sell us 20% of our shares! Yes, It’s not a gift! We have money now, but people are holding on to those shares. It’s useless no matter how much money we have! So, about a year ago, our Chen family agreed to the Cui family’s request, because if we didn’t agree, , the Cui family will soon combine the 20% and 30% shares into one, and by then the Chen family will no longer be named Chen! "
"It's just that although the child Lingshan looks weak, her surname is the same as her mother's. She is very stubborn. She said she didn't want to get married, so she really didn't want to get married, and then she ran away from home. Fortunately, there is no one from the Cui family. Urgent, otherwise it would have already caused serious consequences!”
Chen Daoling finished telling the so-called inside story in one breath, and Zhao Tiezhu fell silent.
In good conscience, Zhao Tiezhu feels that what Chen Daoling did cannot be considered wrong because you were born into the Chen family. The Chen family provides you with food, shelter, and a superior status so that you can live the life of an upper class person. You can have whatever you want. You can eat whatever you want, play whatever you want, and you almost never have to worry about money. But when you enjoy these benefits, you must also know that when the Chen family needs you, you will have the conditions. It is your duty to contribute to the Chen family. This is true for so-called big families. Normally, the family allows you to eat, drink and have fun, but when you really need to use a knife to fight with someone, you have to cut a few times with someone, knowing that you will die! These are the most basic rules of the so-called big family, and Chen Lingshan's behavior undoubtedly violated such basic group rules, so Zhao Tiezhu felt that Chen Daoling's actions were not wrong.
But is what Chen Lingshan did wrong?
She has been washing dishes for more than ten years. This situation has never happened in any family with a little foundation that Zhao Tiezhu knows. And judging from the situation in the past two days, Chen Lingshan has been wronged in this family. Has anyone in the Chen family stood up for her? Maybe when Chen Daoling was there, Chen Daoling could stand up for Chen Lingshan, but what about when Chen Daoling was not there? Chen Xinshou just watched his daughter being bullied without saying anything. Maybe he was afraid of the 20% of Chen family shares owned by the Zhu family before, but what happened later? The Zhu family sold that 20% of the shares, so what was Chen Xinshou afraid of? Therefore, Zhao Tiezhu can be sure that Chen Lingshan basically did not enjoy much in this family. From time to time, there are people like Rong Mama who bully her. She must not be very happy. Since the family treats her like this, it is really too late to talk to her about the so-called family honor when she needs to sacrifice her own happiness!
So, Chen Lingshan is not wrong!
Although all this was complicated, it couldn't be simpler for Zhao Tiezhu. Who was right and who was wrong? Is there any need to say who was right? Chen Lingshan was a girl, and a pretty girl at that. As the saying goes, pretty girls are always right. This statement was still very true for Zhao Tiezhu.
