Boss, He’s Becoming a Father (Arc 3) Chapter 63.3: The Son-In-Law of a Wealthy Family (18)
Father Zheng also cursed, “Asshole! Your mom is the mother-in-law. We haven’t seen each other or talked on the phone for so many years. She can’t even give birth to a grandson. Now that she’s back, she wants your mom to serve her. What’s the point of me giving birth to a son like you? I might as well have strangled you to death!”
Zheng Yaozu said without thinking: “She is a rich Miss. Why are you acting like a father-in-law or mother-in-law in front of her? Aren’t you asking for trouble?”
When Mother Zheng heard this, her eyes widened immediately and she asked, “What’s wrong with a rich Miss? Do you think I’m unworthy? You’re also a student from a prestigious university, why are you so accommodating to her?”
Zheng Yaozu felt bitter. He was indeed a student from a prestigious university, but his major was not good. If it weren’t for Shao Mingzhu, with his ability, he probably wouldn’t be able to afford a house in Shanghai even if he worked hard for fifty years.
“Mom, didn’t I tell you? Now my work still depends on my father-in-law. Can’t you coax Mingzhu? Only when she is coaxed well, I can be well.” Zheng Yaozu said.
Mother Zheng used to believe this, but now that she has seen with her own eyes how good her son is to his wife, she doesn’t believe it at all.
Even Father Zheng didn’t believe it. Instead, he said confidently, “The Shao family doesn’t have a son, so they still have to rely on you. You want to work, why would your father-in-law make things difficult for you? You said so much just to support this little vixen.”
Mother Zheng echoed: “I have paid so much for you, but now you have married a wife and forgotten your mother. All you do all day is feed this chicken that doesn’t lay eggs. You are really possessed by a devil!”
Zheng Yaozu was so upset at this time. He didn’t understand why his parents were so determined to believe that he was an ungrateful and unfilial person even though he had already said no.
Zheng Yaozu didn’t know that all this was only because his acting was so good. When the old couple of the Zheng family saw how considerate their son was to his wife and how he took care of every detail, it was as if he only had that person in his eyes, and it was a look of true love.
“I’m telling you, you can’t indulge your wife like this. The more you indulge her, the more trouble she will cause! You won’t be able to handle it!” Mother Zheng said sourly.
Zheng Yaozu really wanted to say that he was unwilling to indulge Shao Mingzhu, but Shao Mingzhu was a complainer. She would call Shao Yu at the slightest dissatisfaction, which made him dare not slack off at all.
“I really let you study for so many years in vain, and you have been bewitched by a woman. Did she cast a spell on you? Do you know what you look like? You don’t look like her husband at all, you are just her servant!” Mother Zheng was scolded.
Zheng Yaozu took a deep breath. He felt that the misunderstanding between him and his mother seemed too deep.
Zheng Yaozu didn’t want to tell them in such detail, but seeing that he didn’t get any cooperation, he could only tell them his plan: “I’ll tell you about it after I finish cooking the porridge.”
A family meeting had to be held, but Shao Mingzhu’s porridge could not be delayed.
Mother Zheng started crying again after hearing this and said, “It’s all because of that little vixen.”
Zheng Yaozu’s forehead twitched, but he didn’t know how to explain it. Zheng Yaozu could only suppress his annoyance and hurriedly put the porridge in the rice cooker to cook. Then he pulled his parents into the small room.
The old couple of the Zheng family originally looked unwilling to cooperate, but Zheng Yaozu frightened them with just one sentence.
“I have been in the Shao family for ten years. According to my estimation, the assets of the Shao family are no less than 50 billion.”
The old couple of the Zheng family slowly turned around and couldn’t help but stretch out their fingers and count them carefully.
Father Zheng’s breathing became increasingly rapid: “How…how could there be so much money…”
Zheng Yaozu said: “Mingzhu’s father Shao Yu started his own business in the early years and seized good opportunities several times, which increased his wealth hundreds of times.”
Mother Zheng couldn’t help but ask again: “You…you are not lying to us for that little vixen, are you?”
It was normal for Mother Zheng to be suspicious. After all, Zheng Yaozu’s behavior was too much like he was facing a living ancestor.
Zheng Yaozu took a deep breath and continued, “I have a son outside, not Mingzhu’s.”
“Son… my eldest grandson?” Mother Zheng’s eyes immediately lit up.
Zheng Yaozu took out his mobilephone and found a photo of a child from the deepest part of the phone’s folder.
The child on the phone is very cute, fair and tender, and as adorable as the dolls in New Year pictures.
Mother Zheng only took one look and her eyes became clear. She smiled and said, “This child looks exactly like you when you were a child. There’s no doubt about it. He is my darling grandson.”
After seeing their eldest grandson, the old couple of the Zheng family no longer doubted Zheng Yaozu.
“Shao Mingzhu only gave birth to one daughter, Shao Qi. If I can’t please Shao Mingzhu, these tens of billions of assets will fall on Shao Qi’s head, and my son will get nothing.”
Zheng Yaozu’s words directly hit the old couple’s nerves.
Father Zheng immediately said, “How can this be possible! What does a little girl with the surname Shao need so much money for? You must give it all to my darling grandson!”
Mother Zheng couldn’t help but nodded.
Seeing that they were on to something, Zheng Yaozu immediately said, “The old man of the Shao family won’t be around for many years. I must take control of the company before Shao Qi reaches adulthood.”
