Chapter 522: The Brother-Obsessed Sister
Wu Donghai's wife, Xue Yaqin, was a standard brother-obsessed sister.
Given her status and family background, it would have been impossible for her to enter the Wu family's door.
But the reason Wu Donghai married her into the Wu family in the first place was entirely because Wu Donghai was truly in love with her.
After marrying into the Wu family, Xue Yaqin began to think of every possible way to help her brother, Xue Nanshan.
Xue Nanshan was a person with no real ability. He didn't study well, and his abilities were not up to par. When he was young, he took a lot of money from Xue Yaqin to do business, but basically, he lost it all.
There was no other way, so Xue Yaqin had to beg her husband, hoping that her husband could share a little bit of the Wu family's business with her brother, which could be considered helping her brother.
Although Wu Donghai looked down on Xue Nanshan, he helped him a few times for his wife's sake.
But Xue Nanshan was very ungrateful. Even if he didn't have the ability, when others took him to make money, he would play tricks, and in the end, Wu Donghai was annoyed by him and simply didn't bother to take him along.
However, Xue Yaqin didn't want her brother to be mediocre for life. Seeing that her brother didn't have much real ability, but he had the ability to fight and kill, she guided her brother onto the path of gray industry.
Xue Nanshan was, after all, Wu Donghai's brother-in-law, and the entire Wu family's influence in the south was very large, so with this relationship, when he came out to fish in troubled waters, everyone had to give him some face.
After fishing in troubled waters for a few years, Xue Nanshan explored the business of the beggar gang himself.
It was called a "beggar gang," but in fact, it was just borrowing a name from martial arts novels. They didn't do anything to help the weak or serve the country and the people; they just organized a large group of fake beggars to pretend to be beggars everywhere and cheat people.
Moreover, conflicts often arose between beggar gangs.
For example, the most crowded bus stations, train stations, and commercial streets were the golden locations that the beggar gangs liked the most. If they could set up a stall there, they would definitely earn a lot in a day.
However, the beggars in a city, true and false, added up to thousands or tens of thousands of people, so naturally, they couldn't all crowd into these few golden locations.
Therefore, fighting and killing, forming gangs, and grabbing territory among beggar gangs in their daily lives became the most important thing besides begging.
Because there was the big tree of the Wu family, Xue Nanshan developed very quickly in the career of the beggar gang.
If any beggar gang dared to go against him, they would be immediately trampled to death. If he couldn't trample them to death, he would beg his sister, and his sister would beg her husband, which was Wu Donghai, to come out and help.
Wu Donghai was, after all, the successor of a top family. He naturally looked down on this kind of gray business and, of course, didn't want to intervene.
But he couldn't stand his wife blowing pillow talk in his ear every day, acting like a spoiled child, or losing her temper, so he had no other way.
Finally, when he couldn't do anything else, he came out to help Xue Nanshan a few times.
When others found out that even a successor of a top family like Wu Donghai would come out to stand up for Xue Nanshan, other beggar gangs naturally didn't dare to offend Xue Nanshan again.
Consequently, Xue Nanshan, by borrowing the power of the tiger, gathered the entire Zhejiang Province beggar gang influence into his own hands.
Now he was a famous "beggar gang" leader in the Jiangnan area.
Xue Nanshan was also very proud of this, because this kind of thing made money too fast, and he didn't need to use his brain at all. Everyone dispersed, each person found a piece of land, lay on the ground, and then used white paper to write a miserable copy, which was completely lying down to make money.
In a short time, he had already saved up a family fortune of over 1 billion.
Seeing that her brother had such a great achievement, Xue Yaqin was naturally relieved. For a brother-obsessed sister like her, the brother carried the continuation of the entire family bloodline.
The Xue parents left early, and there were no relatives. The more desolate and less prosperous the family was, the more she hoped that the Xue family could spread its branches and leaves as soon as possible, gradually becoming a famous big family in the Jiangnan area, so that she could fulfill her mission to her family.
After sending her brother's family away, Xue Yaqin turned back into the villa.
Wu Donghai was smoking a cigar, sitting in the living room, and said somewhat irritably, "Yaqin, I heard recently that your brother's beggar gang has been using a bunch of children to make money. Can you tell him to restrain himself in the future? Now everyone outside knows that he is my brother-in-law, Wu Donghai. He does this kind of low-class business, and people outside think I directed it! My Wu family is a big family with a hundred billion level, how can we be involved with this kind of low-class business?"
As soon as Xue Yaqin heard this, her eyes immediately turned red with grievance, and she choked up, "Husband, you are not unaware of Nanshan's situation. You say he has no ability, no education, and no brain. Besides fishing in troubled waters, what other way can he have? I only have this one brother. If he doesn't live well, then I really won't be able to close my eyes even if I die!"
Wu Donghai was most helpless when he saw his wife's aggrieved look. He also knew that this was just his wife's trick, but after all, out of true love, once he saw her aggrieved, even if she was pretending to be aggrieved, Wu Donghai would feel heartache.
So, he could only sigh and said, "Alright, alright, don't be aggrieved. My meaning is, you should also say hello to Nanshan later. There are many ways to fish in troubled waters. Don't put the behavior of fishing in troubled waters on women and children. If he has the guts, dares to fight and kill, then I can completely support him to be the underground emperor of the entire Jiangnan. Why bother to do those things that hurt women and children every day? These things really don't look good when said out loud."
Xue Yaqin came to Wu Donghai's side with teary eyes, sat beside him, grabbed his arm, and choked up pitifully, "Husband, you are not unaware of what my brother is like. He doesn't have the ability to fight and kill with others at all. Besides, our entire Xue family only has this one male descendant left. No matter what, we can't let him go out to fight and kill. If something happens to him, wouldn't our Xue family be cut off?"
Wu Donghai said helplessly, "Didn't I tell you? If he dares to fight and kill, I will cover him behind his back. With me here, who do you think in Jiangnan dares to move him?"
Xue Yaqin wiped her tears and said, "That's not how you say it, husband. Now there are many kids who are completely reckless. He doesn't care about your status or background. He might pick up a knife and say he's going to kill someone. If they hurt Nanshan, even if they are all killed afterward, what problem can it solve?"
Having said that, she grabbed Wu Donghai's hand and said with red eyes, "Husband, I only have Nanshan as a brother. Just look at the fact that I've been with you for so many years and gave birth to two sons for you, please be more considerate of him."
Wu Donghai sighed and said helplessly, "The things Nanshan does are too harmful to virtue. When you have time, let him go to the temple to burn more incense!"
