Chapter 682: Big melon tastes especially good
The silver-haired woman's heart trembled.
I unconsciously clenched the handkerchief in my hand.
The eldest uncle of the He family sat as steady and motionless as a mountain, his trembling beard showing that he was not as calm as imagined.
Tong Huaqiong and others became increasingly certain that there was an unspeakable secret between the two old men.
"How can one side with the nephew's wife when there is a dispute between one's own daughter-in-law and the nephew's wife?"
Such big melons taste particularly delicious.
Aunt Qin couldn't suppress her excitement, and although she tried to lower her voice, her voice still reached everyone's ears.
Zhao sneered, "Behind the daughter-in-law is the son, and behind the nephew's wife is the nephew. To side with the nephew's wife is to side with the nephew. If someone abandons his own son and sides with his nephew, there is no need to ask, because this nephew may be his own flesh and blood."
As soon as these words were spoken, the He family fell silent instantly.
Especially the silver-haired woman, He Chao's second aunt, who opened her mouth for a long time but couldn't utter a word, her face turning strangely red.
The He family is not united. They only share common interests when facing He Chaoshi, but are usually a group of scattered sand.
This time, everyone's goal is to put Zhuzi on the throne of He Chao's heir, bring He Chao back to the He family's genealogy and let the He family share in He Chao's contributions.
But not everyone was willing to choose Zhuzi as their adopted son. Except for the eldest cousin's sister-in-law Zhang, who had only two daughters, others were also not very happy about it.
They also have sons or grandsons. It was He Chao's great-grandfather from the eldest house who chose the son of the second house, that is, his nephew, against all odds.
The eldest uncle of the He family and the second uncle who passed away were brothers, so the eldest uncle of the He family would naturally favor his nephew.
No one has ever doubted the relationship between the eldest uncle and the second aunt of the He family.
After hearing what Zhao and Aunt Qin said, I had to doubt...
The He family members glanced at the silver-haired woman. The silver-haired woman gathered her meticulously combed hair, and her hands trembled a little.
In the tribe, the fighting power of the silver-haired woman is quite amazing. She enjoys fighting against heaven and earth and has never suffered a loss in quarreling with others.
This time, he looked embarrassed by the ridicule from Mrs. Zhao and Aunt Qin.
This doesn't fit her style.
The He family members in the room had different thoughts.
Hong smiled and said, "Generally, families without sons will recommend a younger child when adopting one. I have never seen anyone recommend a son who is about to get married. It's not like there are no young children in your clan. It turns out there is a reason for everything."
The fire started by the Hong family made it impossible to hold the He family, who were already in disarray, together even with glue.
Except for the eldest branch of the He family, which had no sons, every family that came along had grandchildren and sons. Not only that, but every family had children under ten years old.
At first, they opposed the adoption quota being given to Zhuzi, but it was the eldest uncle of the He family who used his authority as the patriarch to suppress everyone and forcibly lifted Zhuzi up.
No wonder the old man didn't react much to his son and daughter-in-law's son-in-law asking his son to return to the clan. It turned out that the old man already had several grandsons including Zhuzi.
This also explains why the old man had a bad relationship with his younger brother when his younger brother was alive and they often had disputes, but after his younger brother died, he began to show great concern for his brother's wife and nephew.
"No wonder uncle chose the pillars so well, it turns out he was considering his own descendants." Gao, the fifth cousin's wife, expressed her dissatisfaction directly and deliberately criticized her own descendants.
She has five sons, and the youngest is only six years old this year.
As for who is suitable to be adopted, no one is more suitable than her son.
But He's uncle said that her son was timid and useless.
From her current point of view, only being timid can make Hong let down her guard and be willing to accept her.
"Asshole!" The silver-haired woman pointed at Gao and cursed, "You black-hearted rotten seed, your mouth is for eating, not for spewing shit. If you dare to spew shit again, I will tear your mouth apart."
She couldn't scold Tong Huaqiong and others, but she couldn't scold her own nephew's wife?
"Who are you scolding? This is my daughter-in-law. Who are you acting like a mother-in-law to? You two daughters-in-law in this room are not enough for you to act like a mother-in-law."
At this time, another woman with gray hair stood up. She was He Chao's third aunt and a sister-in-law of the silver-haired woman. She had been fighting with the silver-haired woman all her life and was not afraid at all.
The silver-haired woman clearly only had one daughter-in-law, Qian, but the gray-haired woman included Zhang in the list.
This is so obvious that the silver-haired woman and my uncle are having an affair.
She felt that the reason why Mrs. Hong refused to acknowledge the He family's marriage was because the eldest uncle of the He family and the silver-haired woman had offended Mrs. Hong by showing off right away.
Since she could find an opportunity to help Hong vent her anger, she didn't mind rushing forward.
After appeasing Mrs. Hong, the adoption quota fell on her grandson.
She has many grandchildren, so she can let Hong choose any one she wants. It is always better to choose one herself than to force the one in.
As for what Zhang mentioned about letting He Chao take a concubine and have children, she felt that Hong might not be happy about it. Who would be willing to share a man with other women?
Hong smiled, which encouraged the white-haired woman, who jumped up further to reveal the silver-haired woman and Uncle He.
"You said that the adoption of Zhuzi was a pre-planned decision. Who did you discuss it with other than the two of you? I said that my six-year-old Fuzi was suitable, but you two insisted that Fuzi was too young to handle such a great blessing."
"My Fuzi can't be suppressed, but your Zhuzi can be suppressed? You adopted Zhuzi because you want to keep the wealth within your family. He is your grandson on both sides."
"I'm not saying anything, but the relationship between the eldest uncle and his sister-in-law is so good that they can wear the same pants. Whose eldest uncle and sister-in-law don't avoid suspicion? It's just that you two are stuck on the same vine. No wonder people treat you two as a couple when you first arrived."
Hong and Tong Huaqiong tried to hold back their laughter.
This so-called fifth aunt of He Chao did curse in a dirty way, but her true intentions were also exposed.
He was just holding a grudge because his grandson lost the election, so he wanted to pull down the first and second wives to please the Hong family and successfully promote his grandson.
But think about it, among the He family members who were able to come to the Hong family, none of them were pure. They all had their own purposes, and their core idea was to seize the property of He Chao and the Hong family.
Let them fight each other before the authorities arrive.
The silver-haired woman was so ashamed and angry that she felt like dying. After several exchanges of insults, the gray-haired woman responded with even dirtier insults.
Uncle He was so angry that he almost broke his walking stick.
The white-haired woman enjoyed scolding, and this was the first time she won in a verbal battle with the silver-haired woman.
She always lost in the past because Uncle He didn't stand on her side.
The gray-haired woman fought more and more bravely.
"I said that my second brother's death was strange. I wonder if it was caused by an adulterer or an adulteress."
These words made the silver-haired woman and Uncle He tremble and almost faint on the spot.
"I've always thought that my second brother doesn't look like my second uncle, but I think you look more like my eldest uncle than my eldest brother does."
Gao looked at Uncle He's son with a smile on her face.
