But Lin Mengya felt a little awkward every time she heard this title.
To be honest, if she is a baby, you can call her whatever you want.
But she is already such a big person...
However, the old man on the island is very stubborn. No matter how she explains it, the other party refuses to change her words, and the trend is getting worse.
Besides, it's just a title, and it's not a bad thing. She can't fall out with those old people just because of this, right?
In short, she could only bite the bullet and listen to the big guys calling her this, but not respond when she could help it.
She really responded, and she felt like her toes had dug out a picture of "Along the River During the Qingming Festival" in her shoes.
No, no, it's still too embarrassing.
The two of them found an unoccupied room. Lin Mengya regained her previous ability and told Xiao Chengming what she had discovered when she went to see a doctor.
"In my opinion, Xiao Qiming is worried about his brother on the surface, but in his heart he should also be secretly looking forward to Xiao Chengming's death."
Xiao Qiming should be conflicted in his heart.
He was sincere when he asked the doctor to talk about his brother, but he deliberately provoked her just now. It didn't seem like he was doing it for his brother's good, but it made Lin Mengya feel strange.
He wanted Xiao Chengming to die, but he didn't want him to die too quickly. Lin Mengya told Aunt Rong her doubts. After hearing these words, the latter sighed and said, "Xiao Chengming is a very smart person."
Since he was a child, I have often heard of his genius. If it weren’t for his physical
Drag, where is the chance for others to get involved in the position of the head of the Xiao family?"
Lin Mengya's thoughts turned around. Although she came from a family of military generals, she had experienced all the intrigues and intrigues within the big family over the years.
From the previous contact, she did not think Xiao Qiming was a fool, but he was indeed not that smart.
If it were a big family fight, his temper would easily lead to disadvantages.
Who would entrust their family to a man who is eager for quick success, has a bad temper, and is proud and arrogant?
Unless you don’t want the family to continue to prosper, or there are no other suitable candidates.
Otherwise, the heirs of a big family will be carefully cultivated from an early age.
Whether it is temperament, literary skills or military strategy, mental planning must be first-class to lead the family to continue to develop. From what she knows about the Xiao family, the current head of the Xiao family is obviously partial.
, not only did he spoil his concubine and destroy his wife, but the most important thing was that he didn't like the three children his wife gave birth to. Instead, he valued the concubines more.
's children.
Therefore, even if the eldest son, who is the most outstanding, is separated from his second son, there will be no harm to him.
On the contrary, this will give him a way to promote people he really values to the position.
As for Xiao Qiming, it is no exaggeration to say that Lin Mengya felt that if this person really inherited the position of the head of the family, then according to his style, the Xiao family might fall into civil strife.
Lin Mengya thought for a moment and suddenly asked Aunt Rong.
"Aunt Rong, if the Xiao family gets into chaos, will it be beneficial to us?"
Rong Zhao had never thought about this problem, but now that she thought about it carefully, she felt that this was a good idea.
So she said: "Of course I hope that the Xiao family can take care of themselves. To be honest, compared to other aristocratic families in the Southern Region, I am the most afraid of the Xiao family."
Mentioning this matter, Aunt Rong's face became a little complicated, but she still said quietly: "Do you know the secret of our Xuanhuo Island, who leaked the news? It is the Xiao family!"
"They control several seaports. Since they are closest to us, we have been trading with them in the past. Even the iron on the island was given priority to the Xiao family." "I didn't expect that people would be so weak.
They were not only interested in the iron business, but also in the secret method of forging. They used many unscrupulous methods. Seeing that the deception was not successful, they maliciously spread the news.
Go and almost destroy the people on our island!"
"You know, the reason why the Xiao family has developed so far is that at least half of the wealth accumulated by their ancestors was earned through transactions with us, but the Xiao family is insatiable and is simply greedy!"
Although this happened many years ago, Aunt Rong still gritted her teeth with hatred when she mentioned it.
Crossing the river and demolishing the bridge, unloading the mill and killing the donkey, the Xiao family may have forgotten the deal with Xuanhuo Island back then, and they asked for it themselves!
Moreover, the heads of the current generation of the Xiao family fell out with Xuanhuo Island. They were unable to succeed, and they also lost the right to exclusively trade ironware, and their business suffered heavy losses one after another.
So in order to stabilize his family's situation and to make a comeback, he used tricks to marry his current wife.
He was so disgusting and ungrateful that he just forgot about her and favored his concubine after using it. When Lin Mengya heard Aunt Rong’s words, she already had some plans in mind, so
She whispered: "Aunt Rong, according to what you said, this in-law of the Xiao family must be extremely powerful, and they also want to get something by marrying the Xiao family.
Benefit, right?"
Rong Zhao nodded, saying that if you know yourself and the enemy, you will be victorious in every battle, so she has been very clear about the affairs of the Xiao family in these years.
"Yes, the in-laws of the Xiao family do have some reputations, but the head of the Xiao family has crossed the river and burned bridges, so the relationship between the two families has been tense in recent years, but I think they will secretly support Xiao Qiming."
Lin Mengya felt that this was not necessarily the case.
The leaders of big families are not fools.
They have already filled in a daughter, so naturally they want a better return. If an outstanding grandson can inherit the position, then they will probably get more.
But the reality is that among the three grandchildren, the one who is currently the healthiest is the dullest.
The reason why he has reached this point is mostly because Xiao Chengming pushed him.
And once Xiao Chengming dies, Xiao Qiming may not have much chance of winning. If he continues to invest resources under such circumstances, it will be like a meat bun beating a dog and never coming back.
Therefore, Xiao Qiming is probably aware of this reality, which is why he is so entangled.
As long as his brother is alive, he can inherit that position, but he also needs to live in his brother's shadow for the rest of his life.
But if his brother dies, he will most likely lose his qualifications immediately.
Therefore, he hopes that his brother will live, but he does not want the other brother to live for such a long time.
It would be best if he dies after pushing him to the top.
But there are so many things in the world that offer the best of both worlds?
Lin Mengya thought for a while and felt that if Xiao Chengming could recover, he would definitely not give up the position of the head of the family to a younger brother with little ability.
But in this case, Xiao Qiming will definitely break up with Xiao Chengming brothers. At the same time, Xiao Chengming will also have to face counterattack pressure from his father and concubine.
Lin Mengya already knew the temperament and temperament of the upright lady of the Xiao family from Aunt Rong. I heard that when she was at her parents' house, she was also a master who refused to suffer, but if she knew that her two children had been harmed one after another, it would be a disaster.
People around him had some manipulations, and now their second son is back to health. Guess what this doctor of the Xiao family is?
Will people still endure it like this?
Of course, Xiao Chengming is indeed talented, and he can use a few years to stabilize the family, but his body cannot support such hard work.
Once he dies midway, the forces of all parties that have been suppressed and balanced by him will collapse again.
By that time, even if the entire Xiao family does not fall apart, there will definitely be no peace.
In this way, she achieved her original goal - to destroy the Xiao family and make them unable to take care of themselves.
You must know that if something happens to Xiao Chengming, the Xiao family will definitely use revenge as an excuse to send troops to Xuanhuo Island.
As for Xiao Qiming, without his brother's assistance, he has broken his wings and can easily be thrown aside, and instead support the heir who has been trained by the current head of the Xiao family.
By then, all the power of the Xiao family will be transferred smoothly. After all, there will be no better successor. As long as it concerns the interests of the Xiao family itself, it is estimated that those in their family will also know how to choose.
Sometimes, affection is the least important thing.
Even if the Xiao family will not continue to prosper, at least there will not be any big troubles in the next thirty to fifty years.
This is not a good thing for Xuanhuo Island, so let them continue their chaos!
Lin Mengya talked about her thoughts, and Rong Zhao became more and more excited as she listened. In the end, she grabbed Lin Mengya's wrist and said excitedly: "Girl Huo, are what you said true?" Lin Mengya thought about it.
He thought and nodded, "Of course the most important part of this is to be able to cure Xiao Chengming. Although I don't have the ability to restore him to his original state, I can use the method of fighting poison with poison to keep him alive for another three to five years."
."
"However, in order to prevent him from abandoning his previous suspicion and helping his concubine brother, I have to give him some strong medicine." After hearing this, Aunt Rong said: "I don't think there is anything to worry about. The Xiao family's few
Everyone in the southern region knows about the struggle between a concubine and his wife. They have been fighting to the death for a long time. How can there be a day when they can put aside their past feud?
?”
But Lin Mengya feels that everything needs to be protected.
After all, we are a family, and we cannot write two characters "xiao" in one stroke.
Maybe one day they will let go?
Therefore, she had to let Xiao Chengming discover that they had been forced into a desperate situation. Even if he wanted to let go, they would not give him this chance.
Rong Zhao voted in favor of this matter with both hands.
Lin Mengya asked him how many people he wanted, and then he ignored other things and concentrated on dealing with the two brothers.
After hearing this, Aunt Rong naturally agreed wholeheartedly, and also asked her to choose anyone. She can choose anyone, and she can use it in any way.'
