Chapter 881

Because the phone is not very soundproof right now.

Director Zhou and Lu Qiaoge, who were sitting to the side, heard it all.

Lu Qiaoge put down the documents in her hands.

Director Zhou had not expected to hear someone else's private family matters in a call like this.

But he also didn't know that the office of the head of the Feixiang Electronics Company was like this.

If he had known that Luo Ziwen's parents were in Luo Ziwen's office, he and Lu Qiaoge would certainly have avoided it.

They didn't leave because they had a conference call in a moment, and both Director Zhou and Lu Qiaoge had to participate.

Building this kind of electronics factory as a joint venture is, at present, a major event.

Therefore, no one dared to take it lightly.

Luo Ziwen's expression immediately turned ugly; he also hadn't expected his father to say such things to him.

His father actually called him a spineless coward afraid of women, and even asked if the old Luo family had been giving them too much face.

Never before had he felt that his father's words were so harsh and his attitude so arrogant.

At this moment, Luo Ziwen was truly embarrassed to the point of being unable to show his face.

Lu Qiaoge stood up first, and Old Zhou hurriedly followed; no matter what, it was a family matter.

Even though this was in his office, Old Zhou hurriedly said, "Chairman Luo, don't be anxious. There might be some misunderstanding here. Section Chief Lu and I will step out first; you family members should have a good talk first, don't be anxious..."

While urging Luo Ziwen not to be anxious and not to get into an argument with his father, Old Zhou walked out with Lu Qiaoge.

Lu Qiaoge couldn't even be bothered to have Little Cangcang go to Hong Kong to see what was actually going on...

In fact, she had long since learned that Old Mrs. Luo was still very fond of her eldest grandson, Luo Aijun.

But because Luo Aijun's mother is Chu Sulan, and while she and Chu Sulan don't have any major conflicts on the surface, there is actually a matter behind it.

The old lady still hasn't told Luo Ziwen the truth to this day, and she even begged Old Man Luo to help her keep it hidden.

Old Man Luo agreed to help her keep it hidden, but there were conditions.

That was that she must treat his nephew like a son from now on.

And that Danny, who had been treated like a biological grandson for so many years—don't ignore Danny just because Luo Aijun is here.

Old Man Luo criticized Old Mrs. Luo for doing a very poor job over the past two years, and he was very angry.

Old Mrs. Luo had no choice; in order not to anger her son, she had to agree.

Lu Qiaoge had also found out about this some time ago.

However, she didn't tell Luo Ziwen, nor did she tell Chu Sulan.

No matter what, this was a family matter for those two people.

Even if the two of them didn't treat her as an outsider, she couldn't intervene without authorization.

How should one put it...

Logically speaking, given Luo Ziwen's status in the family as an only son, he should have been like a little ancestor.

But because Old Man Luo was the eldest son of the family, the old Old Man Luo always brainwashed him, telling him that these younger brothers and sisters were his responsibility, and that as the eldest, he should take care of his younger brothers and sisters regardless of whether he was doing well or not.

Saying things like "when brothers are of one mind, they can cut through metal."

Old Mrs. Luo was actually a bully who feared the strong; in the past, when facing Old Man Luo, she didn't dare to say anything.

Old Man Luo liked to wander the streets and alleys; he not only had brothers, but also friends.

He would often visit this house and that house, and his younger brother would say to him, "Big brother, my house is broken; big brother, you have to help me."

Then Old Man Luo would immediately agree, "Fine, I'll help you fix it right now. Oh my, this work is too much to handle; I'll call your sister-in-law over too."

Even ten-year-old Luo Ziwen was dragged along by him to do work for his younger brother's family.

Then this younger brother would say, "Big brother, look, buying bricks costs money, and I don't have any money on me; can you lend me some?"

Old Man Luo would demand money from Old Mrs. Luo, "Hurry up and take out ten yuan for my brother... what do you mean 'lend'? We're all biological brothers, just take it and spend it."

The old lady had to help with the work and also provide the money, but she really didn't have any money on her.

Then she would say to Old Man Luo, "I only have thirty cents; where would the family have ten yuan?"

Old Man Luo felt he had lost face and raised his hand to hit Old Mrs. Luo.

While hitting her, he would curse, "You spendthrift woman, no matter how much money I give you, you can't keep it. Tell me... did you send this money to your mother's house, did you spend it on your brother at your mother's house? Hurry up and go to your mother's house and get this money back for me."

The younger brother and his wife would just watch the spectacle from the side.

Only ten-year-old Luo Ziwen would rush forward to protect his mother.

In the end, it was Old Mrs. Luo with her swollen cheeks borrowing money everywhere.

Not to mention that during family gatherings, it was mostly Old Mrs. Luo doing the cooking and housework.

Luo Ziwen had been very sensible since he was a child. He was always the one helping the old lady, and the mother-son relationship was actually quite good.

But it must also be said that having money can indeed solve many problems and avoid many troubles.

Old Mrs. Luo had been doing quite well these past few years.

Especially since her son married a wife; the gentle Chu Sulan was especially good to her, and during family gatherings, Chu Sulan would take over the cooking.

However, Luo Ziwen did quite well in this regard.

He couldn't control his mother.

Because as soon as he tried to control his mother, his father would fly into a rage and nag, making the household restless.

But seeing his wife like this, he still felt very heartbroken.

His cousins had also married wives; before he brought Chu Sulan into the house, the old Luo family already had four grandsons' wives. Why should his wife be the only one doing the cooking?

That time, Luo Ziwen almost set the house on fire.

And he didn't give Old Man Luo any face either.

He said to the old Old Man Luo like this, "Grandfather, my mother has been painstakingly managing this family all these years. Every time we gather, it's my mother doing the cooking. Your eyesight is poor, so it's fine if you don't see it. But besides being able to order my mother around, what else can you do?"

"You are all my elders, so it's not easy for me to say anything. But your grandsons' wives aren't just Su Lan alone, right? There are four others. How come... what about those four? Are they all dead? Making my wife do all the work alone!"

At that time, the old Old Man Luo was so angry he kept cursing, "You little beast, how are you talking?"

"Am I not saying the right thing? Can't I even ask where they went?"

Because Old Man Luo and Old Mrs. Luo only gave birth to Luo Ziwen five years after they were married, Luo Ziwen had three cousins.

But Luo Ziwen was not afraid at all, and he also set down the rules.

From that time on, Luo Ziwen realized that if you don't have a say in a family, you will be bullied.

Lu Qiaoge heard many things from Little Cangcang, but a portion of it was told to her by Chu Sulan.

Chu Sulan and Luo Ziwen grew up together, and she knew the affairs of the Luo family clearly.

Luo Ziwen often ate at her house because his father often called his mother to help other people's families do work, cook, and take care of children...

Lu Qiaoge felt that a person like Old Man Luo shouldn't have gotten married.

He spent his whole life dedicating himself to that old Luo family.
