Chapter 1538

Upon hearing Old Mrs. Xiao's words, Xiao Hailong suddenly became excited and said excitedly, "Grandma! If it's really as you say, then that's truly great! I've always felt that bastard Ye Chen would crash sooner or later. It seems this is the signal before the crash!"

Old Mrs. Xiao's expression showed a bit of smugness, "The reason their family has been able to live so well for over a year is all because Ye Chen has been out there bluffing and swindling! In the past, those Qigong masters and Xuanxue masters also swindled a lot of wealth from the pockets of the rich, but none of them had a good ending! I think this Ye Chen is going to be finished too!"

Xiao Hailong's body even twitched with excitement, and he said excitedly, "If this Ye Chen really crashes, presumably his whole family will be finished soon too! Maybe in a few days, that Wang Zhenggang will have to come and take back this villa!"

Xiao Changgan, who was lying to the side, suddenly said with great excitement, "Oh my, if that's really the case, then the tables have truly turned! It would be best if Ye Chen crashes immediately, then their whole family has nowhere to go and ends up on the streets. Then we can have a good laugh at their family's expense!"

Speaking of this, he couldn't help but say with pride, "Thirty years east of the river, thirty years west of the river! They definitely wouldn't have thought that our family could still find a way to survive. Now that Weiwei has a noble person helping her and is managing the largest etiquette company in all of Jin Ling, our future days will definitely get better and better!"

Old Mrs. Xiao gave a hum and a smile, saying, "Speaking of our Weiwei, she is truly promising! Starting from scratch, she was able to make an etiquette company the number one in the whole city. Just this point alone, I don't know how much better she is than you two!"

As she spoke, Old Mrs. Xiao looked at the two of them and said angrily, "Speaking of which, you two are truly a pair of useless trash! I let you go and handle Ma Lan, but as a result, you two were beaten into cripples yourselves. Now you're lying on the bed, making me, this old woman, serve you food and drink! It's simply outrageous!"

Once these words were out, Xiao Changgan and Xiao Hailong, father and son, looked at each other, and both could see the endless embarrassment in each other's eyes.

Speaking of the men of the Xiao family, they really didn't have any ability or capability.

Although Xiao Changgan was the eldest son and had always been highly regarded by the old lady, this person was essentially a straw bag, the kind of person who was all talk and no action.

As for Xiao Hailong, the eldest grandson, he was even more like mud that couldn't be supported on a wall, a standard person who couldn't do anything but was number one at acting arrogant.

The two of them had worked in the Xiao Group for so many years and basically hadn't created any performance. The foundation of the Xiao Group was built by Old Master Xiao taking the severance pay from the Ye family and working hard for half his life. Ever since he passed away, the assets had been shrinking until bankruptcy and liquidation.

At this time, Old Mrs. Xiao saw that the father and son were silent, shook her head helplessly, and sighed, "I don't know what kind of background Weiwei's noble person has. Listening to what she meant, the other party's capability is still very great. He directly took the company that was cheating people from its original boss by force and just gave it to Weiwei to manage! And her previous boss not only didn't dare to say a word, but he was even willing to go to KTV to be a pimp! Killing someone and then attacking their heart, you tell me how capable this person must be!"

"Yes!" Xiao Changgan couldn't help but sigh, "I heard that Weiwei's previous boss was also a street-smart person with quite a bit of skill. I didn't expect him to be completely handled by that person in two sentences. Thinking about it, that noble person must know the top big figures in the Jin Ling underworld. Maybe it's even a young master from some big family!"

Old Mrs. Xiao said, "If Weiwei could get together with that noble person, that would be great. What our family lacks most now is a good backer!"

Xiao Changgan nodded gently and said, "I see that every time Weiwei mentions that noble person, her eyes are full of light. Maybe she has already secretly given her heart to that noble person."

"Hmm." Old Mrs. Xiao nodded and said, "I saw what you said too. But Weiwei has always been unwilling to reveal the identity of that noble person, and I, this old lady, can only be anxious."

As she spoke, Old Mrs. Xiao added, "By the way, Changgan, you should talk to Weiwei privately later and ask her sideways how far she has progressed with that noble person. If it's not clear yet, let her speed up a bit. It's best to cook the raw rice into cooked rice as soon as possible!"

Xiao Changgan said embarrassedly, "Mom, how can I talk to Weiwei about this kind of thing? It makes it seem like I'm in a hurry to sell my daughter."

Old Mrs. Xiao blurted out, "Only you asking is the most appropriate. Because of Xiao Yiqian's matter before, Weiwei has always had some opinions about me. If I go to ask her, she definitely won't be able to open her heart to me."

Xiao Hailong immediately volunteered, "Grandma, why don't I talk to Weiwei? We don't have a generation gap, and it's easier to communicate."

"Forget it!" Old Mrs. Xiao rolled her eyes at him and said, "With your ability to express yourself, you can't find anyone worse than you in the whole Xiao family!"

Xiao Hailong suddenly said unconvinced, "Grandma! What do you mean by saying that? What's wrong with my ability to express myself? I think I'm quite eloquent!"

Old Mrs. Xiao said discontentedly, "If you were really eloquent, Dong Ruolin would have already become our Xiao family's daughter-in-law! If you had grasped Dong Ruolin at the beginning, our family wouldn't have ended up in this situation!"

Speaking of this, Old Mrs. Xiao said angrily, "But Hailong, you have no other skills, but your ability to stir up trouble is still very powerful! At that time, if it weren't for you slandering Xiao Churan in my ear, I wouldn't have gone back on my word and given the director position I promised Xiao Churan to you!"

"Originally, Xiao Churan was just a puppet. Except for not listening to me when I told her to divorce Ye Chen, she did whatever I told her to do. It was because of being bewitched by you that time that this girl started to grow a rebellious bone, and even remained unmoved when she saw me living on the streets!"

Speaking of this, she looked at Xiao Hailong and said very discontentedly, "Hailong, the four words 'unfit for heavy responsibility' are exactly describing you!"

Xiao Hailong didn't expect that Grandma would scold him like this. For a moment, he was speechless and could only lower his head in shame.

Xiao Changgan hurriedly smoothed things over at this time, "Mom, don't scold Hailong anymore. Our family has had a miserable time recently, but to be honest, who doesn't encounter some setbacks in their life? Look at Xiao Changkun's family, their life wasn't easy in the past few years, but didn't they get better later? Weiwei's career is developing smoothly now. If she can have both love and career, maybe our family will rise again!"

Hearing this, Old Mrs. Xiao couldn't help but sigh, "Hey, I used to think that grandsons were good and grandsons were our own people. Now looking at it, granddaughters are much more reliable than grandsons!"

After saying that, she sighed again, "If I had known Weiwei had such strong ability, I should have handed the company to Weiwei to manage more than a year ago. Maybe the Xiao Group wouldn't have gone bankrupt."
