Chapter 638 Mother-in-law Or Daughter-in-law
Chapter 638 Mother-in-law Or Daughter-in-law
Mary shivered. She had never thought about it. Albert didn't have much interest in women. For so many years, he had never been with any other women except for Minny.
However, as a man of strong power, handsome, mature and extraordinary appearance, there were countless women coveting him. If the relationship between the couple continued to deteriorate like this, the mistress would definitely come into the house.
"You are my son. You must find a way to make me and your father get back together."
"Don't worry, mommy. I'll handle it. I'm good at coaxing people." Walt said confidently, patting his chest.
Mary nodded and turned to Zac, "tell your wife that even if I am not the hostess of this family, I am her mother-in-law. If she dares to make trouble in the family, I won't spare her."
"Mommy, Essie values love the most. If you treat her well, she will also treat you well." Zac said clearly and in a low voice. He was reminding his mother to be kind to Essie and not to make trouble again.
Mary snorted and said nothing. She wiped the tears on her face and walked out of the study.
Leila was in the hall. Seeing her coming down, she walked up to her and asked, "Mommy, are you okay?"
"Very good." Mary rolled her eyes at her. She thought she was a sensible girl before, but she didn't expect that she would stab her at the critical moment.
Leila read her mind and smiled, "Mommy, you are my mother-in-law. Of course I'm on your side unconditionally. The reason why I proposed to share the family affairs with Essie is to help you." Her voice was so low that it was within the range of the two.
The task Willi gave her was to mess up the peaceful spring water of the family and make the family more chaotic. So she would try to make Mary and Essie keep fighting with each other until Essie was driven out of the family.
Mary glanced at her and asked, "do you really think so?"
"Of course, as your daughter-in-law, I should be filial to you and respect you. Your words are the imperial edict. How can I help that disrespectful sister-in-law and disobey you?" Leila said seriously.
"It's good that you can think so." Mary's eyes flashed.
In a rich family, the relationship between mother-in-law and daughter-in-law was difficult to deal with, and the relationship between sisters-in-law was also very complicated. She and Sally seemed to be harmonious on the surface, but secretly competed with each other. As the eldest daughter-in-law, Leila was definitely not willing to be suppressed by Essie. It would be strange if she didn't try her best to win over her mother-in-law.
"Mommy, if you need anything, just tell me." Said Leila.
Mary nodded. With her assistant's help, it would be much easier to deal with Essie. At that time, Essie would make a mess of the family. Not only Albert, but also Abel and Alena would be very disappointed in her.
At this moment, Essie had begun to get familiar with the business of the family.
In addition to the Centennial old house in Dragon City, the property of the family also included the natural ecological farm, fish pool, pasture, and training ground all over the country... Every week, there would be fresh vegetables, fruits, fish, meat being sent to Rong Mansion and other family members in other cities.
In the eyes of the people of Dragon City, the Rong family was not only the richest clan, but also the most generous one.
The salary of the servants and workers in the family was quite good. In addition to the salary, three meals a day were free.
Rong family also provided accommodation for servants and workers. It was in a Luxury Apartments only one mile away from Rong Mansion and the rent was very low.
The housekeeper, the servants and workers who had special contribution to the family and had worked in the family for more than ten years could be allocated to a three bedroom apartment. The rest of the employees would also be allocated apartments according to their level and contribution.
In the Dragon City, where the land was covered with gold, the housing price was astonishing, and the rent was frightening, possessing a cheap house was like getting a pie from the sky.
Therefore, in Dragon City, it was an honor and luck to be able to work as a maid in the family. Of course, no one in Dragon City would hire anyone who was fired by the family.
In the past, Essie had assisted Mary in managing the family business. She had known something about the family business, so it was easy for her to deal with it now.
"Uncle Li, nice to meet you."
"Mrs. Essie, it's my duty to help you manage the family." Uncle Li smiled kindly.
After that, Essie called all the stewards to hold a meeting. As the saying goes, a new emperor would hire his courtiers. The hostess of the family was equivalent to the boss of the family. If the boss was changed, the courtier could also be changed, so the several stewards were a little uneasy, especially those confidants of Mary, who were afraid that Essie would fire them.
Essie could guess what they were thinking. The meeting was to comfort them.
The stewards had their own thoughts. Mary had already sent a message to them on the phone in secret, asking them to do whatever they wanted and secretly trip up Essie. So now they were weighing the pros and cons, should they continue to follow Mary, or should they turn to Essie.
It was a matter of mother-in-law or daughter-in-law.
Generally speaking, in a rich and powerful family, the mother-in-law was the most important. However, the situation of Essie was different. She had backers. Mr. Abel, Mrs. Alena and the host of the family all thought highly of her as their daughter-in-law. Even if she lost her power, she still had a chance to turn the tables. By then, she would have to settle accounts after autumn.
Therefore, they had to measure the situation and weigh the pros and cons.
In fact, Essie had her own plan. The stewards were smart and obedient. She kept them. If they didn't know the situation and stood against her for Mary, she had to ask them to leave.
In the evening, when they returned to the villa, Zac put his arm around her shoulder and said, "now that dad has handed over the position of the hostess to you, it's time for you to relieve your anger, isn't it?"
"Daddy is smart, unlike someone who looks very intelligent, but in fact, his frequency of short circuit is similar to mine." Said Essie with a mocking smile.
"Yes, I was confused. My wife was wronged." Said Zac in a friendly tone, stroking her head.
Essie stopped being stubborn with him. She knew that Albert did this with good intentions. On the one hand, he wanted to punish Mary; on the other hand, he wanted to comfort her and ease her relationship with Zac.
It was a great comfort for her to have such a wise and kind father-in-law at home. She couldn't refuse this favor.
After finishing her homework, Mili walked down the stairs and sat in the middle of them.
"Daddy, mommy, have you made up?"
"Yes, your daddy Hanson is hopeless." Zac gently pinched her little face. He felt depressed at the thought that he was in the same position as Hanson in her heart.
Mili stuck out her tongue at him, crossed her arms over her chest and sighed, "it's all our fault that we are not Moso. Otherwise, daddy Hanson and mommy would have gotten married too."
Rubbing her head which was full of weird thoughts, Zac snorted, "your mommy is monopolized by me. Even if she is an alien, she can only have me as her husband. If anyone else dares to touch her, he will be killed! "
"Big devil!" Mili glared at him.
"Little girl, when you grow up, you will understand that a person's heart is very small and can only accommodate one person." Zac said seriously.
"Then why did you divorce, remarry and have an affair?" Mili raised her beautiful eyebrows and looked at him doubtfully.
"Those who are unfaithful to love will be nuns and monks in the next life, and will be single all their lives."
Zac said in a half serious and half joking tone. Hearing this, Essie was a little choked. Was it really good to say such ridiculous words to children?
Mili blinked her eyes as if she didn't understand what he meant. A trace of panic quickly appeared on her face. "If mommy divorces you and marries daddy Hanson, will she be a nun in the next life?" This text is © NôvelDrama/.Org.
"Yes."
"If you marry someone else, will you be a monk in your next life?"
"Yes."
"Then you'd better not divorce, or you'll be miserable in your next life," said Mili with her eyes wide open as if she was frightened.
"That's good." Zac smiled with satisfaction. She was worth teaching.
Sitting next to her, Essie said in a hurry, "it's almost eight o'clock, sweetheart." She reminded her and changed the topic.
Mili screamed. She took the remote control, turned on the TV and called Rabi and Dot downstairs.
Today was a very special day. The first TV drama starred by Mili was played on TV for the first time. It was in the form of a seasonal show. The first season had been finished and it was officially broadcast on the star.
Because of the special situation that had happened before, Mili didn't have many scenes in the first season. However, there were still a few more seasons left, and her scenes would gradually increase.
"To tell you the truth, godfather and godmother have shown their first kiss on the screen in this play." Mili said with a smile.
"Will uncle be angry if he sees it?" Rabi asked in a sweet voice.
"How about uncle kissing god mother a few more times in private?" Dot said casually.
Mili opened WeChat and pulled Jim and Eva into the group.
"God mom, are you with uncle Vinton?"
"Yes, your uncle is right next to me, your grandma and uncle Jade as well." Eva replied.
"What about god father?"
After a long time, Jim finally typed two words, "at home."
"God father, the screen day is coming again. The mobile phone store will definitely be in a rush tomorrow." Mili let out three laughing expressions. As long as Jim's new movie premiere or the opening of the new play, it was the quietest time in the evening of Dragon City, because everyone was either crowded in the cinema, or squatting in front of TV and mobile phone to lick the screen.
"You're such a jerk! How dare you flatter Jim?" Eva let out a sweating expression.
Jim didn't respond. He seemed to be very busy. Eva thought he had fallen in love with a new girl and endured it for so long, which should be the limit for him?
"Jim, are you alone?" She asked deliberately.
"It's none of your business." Jim sent a contemptuous expression.
