1339 Chapter 1,379: Lei Family Affair (Part Two)
“How can you say that?”
Fourth lady screamed like a cat with its fur standing on end. “Jiaming has been working so hard. Isn’t it because of our lei family that he has to suffer the looks of disdain? “Every time I see that child in a b.l.o.o.d.y mess after he failed to transform, my heart feels like it’s being p.r.i.c.ked by Needles. However, his father and I didn’t stop him. Don’t we know that there’s a pride in that child’s heart and he wants to fight for his reputation? “Oh, now that you’re doing well and have risen to fame, you’re a big shot now. Do you feel that it’s not worth it to help out your own younger brother?”
Elder li frowned and looked at elder lei impatiently. He had been guarding Li Xue for so many days, and he didn’t come here to see the mess in your house… …
Moreover, with Lei Xue’s current status, should he be concerned about such a mess? What was old lei doing?
At this moment, Old Lei’s face was ashen. This fourth daughter-in-law used to know her limits, but recently, she had gone overboard. There was still someone here, what did she look like?
Just as he was about to open his mouth, he suddenly heard Lei Xue’s cold voice…
“It’s not worth it…”
Her cold words made the already cold courtyard seem even colder… …
The fourth mother who was chattering non-stop suddenly choked. She stared blankly at Lei Xue, as if someone was strangling her neck. Her face flushed red, but she couldn’t utter a single word… …
Although Lei Xue was doing better and better now, at least on the surface, she was still very respectful to the elders. This sudden sentence made her momentarily not know how to respond… …
After a long while, she enunciated each word clearly, “What did you say?”
“I said… It’s not worth it…”Lei Xue said expressionlessly.
“You…”fourth lady immediately flew into a rage. Almost subconsciously, she felt as though she had been slapped. However, as soon as this emotion arose, a cold feeling instantly a.s.saulted her, causing her body to stiffen instinctively. When she looked over again, she saw Lei Xue’s pair of ice-cold and frightening eyes…
She was so frightened that she immediately fell to the ground…
“You… you…”fourth mother’s entire body trembled as she pointed at Lei Xue and said furiously, “Amazing, now that your wings have hardened, you still dare to make a move against an elder after treating your own brother with such contempt?”
Facing this so-called elder who had made a false accusation, Lei Xue couldn’t be bothered to even glance at him, instead, she directly looked at the ashen-faced elder lei, “Old Man, my time here today is limited. Are you sure you want me to waste my time here with Fourth Mother?”
“Dad… Look, look, what is this girl saying now?”Fourth lady immediately got up and pointed at lei xue, “With a little bit of luck, she has already gone out of control…”
“Shut up! !”Old Man Lei directly interrupted the chattering fourth lady, causing her to freeze on the spot once again…
“Dad?”
“What? My words are no longer effective, right?”Old Man Lei coldly looked at the other party…
Fourth Mother’s voice immediately became hoa.r.s.e…
Her family background was not low, and she was famous for her fiery personality. However, in front of this old man from the Lei family, who was a man of his word, she still did not dare to be impudent…
“Little Xue…”elder Lei took a deep breath and tried his best to speak in a gentle voice, “You and elder Li go into the living room first. I will come over in a while…”
Lei Xue nodded when she heard that. She did not say anything more and directly greeted elder Li. Then, the two of them walked side by side into the hall.
Fourth Lady looked at Lei Xue angrily, but she did not dare to make any more noise. After staying in the Lei family for many years, she knew that elder Lei’s tone was unquestionable. if he dared to make any more noise, it would be a serious problem. After all, she knew in her heart… Who was the one who could still put on the airs of an elder in front of Lei Xue… …
“Elder Li looks pretty good…”Lei Xue walked in front of elder Li and her tone was much gentler.
“Haha…”. “…”. “…”elder Li’s originally serious face was now filled with a spring breeze-like smile. “That’s right. This old man, who has been waiting for death at the end of his rope, can jump and jump now. How bad can his complexion be? “But in the end, he can’t be compared to you young people. When I went to partic.i.p.ate in the training, I found that the old man really couldn’t adapt to the intensity…”. “…”. “…”
“Li, you’re too modest. I heard from instructor Amy that your training results are not worse than those of young people. If you could spend more time, you could also go to the New World…”
“Haha… Really? Did instructor Amy say that?”Li suddenly beamed. “But I’m old. If I have to compete with young people again, I’m afraid I won’t be able to…”
The two of them walked into the hall while talking and laughing, giving people the feeling that they were old friends who had known each other for many years… …
As fourth lady watched, she suddenly came to a realization… …
Elder Li was a frequent visitor of the Lei family. He had always been a serious old man who didn’t smile or talk. He was definitely not so amiable to his juniors, even when Jia Ming was at his best, elder Li only praised him as an elder when he saw him.
But when facing Li Xue..! … this att.i.tude was completely equal!
When she thought of this, the corners of her mouth were tightly pursed, and her eyes revealed a deep unwillingness… …
“Yajun…”
Just as she was thinking about it, elder Lei’s faint voice suddenly came from behind. Lei Xue’s fourth mother immediately shivered, turned around and carefully said, “Dad…”
“Go back and Tell Jia Ming to stop tormenting him. If you don’t have the life, don’t force it. Do what you can do…”
“Dad? ?”Fourth mother raised her head in shock…
“What?”Elder lei looked at her coldly…
Fourth Mother’s heart skipped a beat, but she still mustered up her courage and said, “Dad… you’re letting the snow girl go like this…”
“Letting her go?”Elder lei directly interrupted her. “How can you tell that I’m letting her go? Are you getting it wrong?”
Fourth Lady was stunned when she heard that…
Elder lei pointed at the courtyard and enunciated each word clearly. “Currently, only our lei, Li, Liu, and long families are able to move into the Huaxia City’s inner ring. The long and Li families are in public positions, but why do you think our family and the Liu family can enjoy the same treatment? “What do you rely on to live in the best environment and enjoy the quality resources of the New World? “Are you really not sure or are you just playing dumb?”
“You can’t say that, Dad…”fourth lady couldn’t help but say, “The reason that girl Xue is able to get to where she is today is because of our lei family. If our family didn’t give the quota to her back then, she wouldn’t be where she is today.”
“Give her the quota? ?”Elder lei sneered, “Doesn’t Jia Ming have the quota?”
“UH…”
“In the same exam, everyone has the same opportunity. Their skills are inferior to others. What’s there to say?”
“That’s different…”. “…”. Fourth Lady couldn’t help but retort, “Xue Girl learned that since she was young. Our Jia Ming’s position was different since she was young. If he had followed the path of scientific research back then, his results wouldn’t have been worse than Xue Girl’s. Moreover, didn’t he practice martial arts because you wanted a cultivator in the family, Dad?”
Elder lei immediately laughed out of anger. “So, is it because of me that Jia Ming has fallen to this state today?”
“Uh… that’s not what I meant, Dad…”
“Even so…”elder lei interrupted the other party’s insincere explanation, he continued, “Then what about now? “Galaxy has already been open to the public for almost half a year, and he was brought in at the first opportunity. Others have worked hard for half a year and have achieved some results. Lei Ming and Lei Yong, the two children, are able to make up for their shortcomings with diligence. At the very least, they are at the forefront of the younger generation. However, your son is still struggling for a better starting point…”. “…”
“This…”fourth lady gritted her teeth. “Is there anything wrong with pursuing a better starting point?”
“There’s nothing wrong with it…”elder Lei shook his head. “If you earn it by relying on your own ability…”
Fourth Lady:”…”
Elder lei: “The Snow Girl now earns everything on her own. Although the first batch of people who came here to muddle their way through, although they had a head start, the achievements they have now are all because of the foundation they built themselves. However, after you and Jia Ming came here, you focused on picking ready-made fruits…”. “…”
“Dad… how can you say that?”
Elder lei waved his hand and interrupted the other party, “You looked at the Snow Girl and elder Li’s back and seemed very unwilling?”
Fourth mother was stunned. was she that obvious?
But even if it was that obvious, wasn’t it not too good to say it out loud?
Elder Lei did not care about the other party’s expression, as he turned around and walked towards the living room, he sighed and said, “I’m old. Even if I changed my gene, I wouldn’t be able to look at the Lei family forever. Be it you, fourth brother, or Jia Ming, both of you still have a lot of good years ahead of you. Now That I’m here, you can still enjoy the benefits of others while looking at their backs unwillingly. However, do you believe that one day when I’m not around, you won’t even be able to look at their backs?”
Fourth Lady:”…”
——
“This old lei…”in the living room of the villa, elder Li sat on the sofa. The first thing he said was that he couldn’t help but complain, “He’s getting more and more outrageous. I would never bring his fourth brother’s family into this place. He’ll regret it sooner or later if he continues like this!”
Lei Xue Sat at the side, smiling and not saying a word…
Her grandfather looked very dignified, but he was actually the softest among the elders of the aristocratic families. For example, in Brother Dog’s Liu family, the second brother’s family did such a bad thing and was directly kicked out of the family. It was said that the family knelt in the Liu family’s old courtyard for a few days, but elder Liu hardened his heart and did not bring the second brother’s family into Huaxia City… …
In comparison, her grandfather was indeed a little soft-hearted…
However, this was not a bad thing. An elder who was too decisive would appear to be impersonal. This was not what she wanted to see…
“I don’t care about these things…”. “…”lei xue smiled and said, “Even if I don’t support Jiaming, I will still send points that I don’t need to my family every year. It’s his business how grandfather wants to use them. I said that it’s not worth it, but it’s just a rational suggestion. As for what grandfather will ultimately decide, I don’t want to ask “…”. “…”
“You little girl…”elder Li suddenly sighed. “I wonder where old lei went to acc.u.mulate his fortune in his previous life. With such an outstanding junior like you, he’s like this, and Old Liu is like this too. Why don’t I have this kind of luck?”
Lei Xue Smiled. “Brother Li ran’s performance is also not bad. He should be one of the batch of developers in the main base…”
“Really?”Elder Li’s eyes lit up. “You can still see this?”
“Yes…”Lei Xue nodded. “Senior Rainmaid Wugua has already drafted the prospectus for the recruitment plan for the second half of the year. There’s only one test left, so there shouldn’t be much of a difference…”
Elder Li nodded and smiled in satisfaction. “I barely managed to hold my breath. Forget it, I won’t scold him when I Get Back…”
Lei Xue:”…”
“Right, Little Xue…”elder Li put down his teacup and asked earnestly, “How much authority have you taken over the headquarters?”
Hearing those words, Lei Xue put down her teacup as well and wiped away the smile on her face… …
The other party’s question was clearly a show of force, and he… … It was about time for him to make a decision… …
