Eighties Sweetheart Wife-Chapter 665: Ulterior Motives

Huang Shi had these conversations with Song Yunuan, after which Song Yunuan subtly shared some opinions and perspectives with him.

As Song Yunuan was close to the center of Beidu, her words were not spoken without reason.

On the other end, Huang Shi agreed with everything, but then hesitated before finally saying to Song Yunuan, "Little Nuan, I want to talk to you about your aunt."

"Go ahead," Song Yunuan frowned slightly. She had learned from her mother some time ago that her aunt was about to take a leave of absence from work, but there had been no updates since, and she hadn’t really given it much thought.

Speaking of which, Huzi hadn’t gone to university in Beidu.

He had gone to Hai City.

Because he had applied for a university in that city, Sun Jinrong and Huzi had a terrible fall-out at the time.

Sun Jinrong even tried to prevent Huzi from studying in Hai City, insisting that Huzi repeat a year and apply to universities in Beidu instead; he also secretly approached Gu Huai’an, asking if he could arrange something, basically to have Huzi choose a different university. frёewebnoѵēl.com

Based on Huzi’s college entrance examination scores, although he couldn’t attend Beidu University, other similar institutions were certainly within reach.

Could this matter be handled?

It indeed could have been handled.

After all, Huzi’s scores weren’t low.

Not to mention, Gu Huai’an certainly had the capability.

With just a made-up reason, they could have placed Huzi in a similarly ranked institution.

But that’s not how it was done.

Of course, Gu Huai’an wouldn’t just arrange a school for Huzi on Sun Jinrong’s whim; this matter completely needed to respect Huzi’s opinion.

Huzi, Asheng, Xiao Gang, and Xiao Ru were practically considered Beidu natives by then.

It’s no exaggeration to say they grew up in Beidu.

After graduating from university, Xiao Gang wanted to try his luck in Nan City.

So, Song Yunuan arranged for him to go to Nan City.

Initially, he joined a state-owned enterprise, but later, Xiao Gang and a few young people partnered up to start an electronics technology company.

In this regard, Song Yunuan was supportive.

Thus, Song Yunuan invested to let them proceed freely.

Naturally, Song Yunuan gave them some guidance from time to time.

Now, Xiao Gang was doing quite well.

They developed a social chatting software that could be used on both computers and Dongfang Hong mobile phones.

While not everyone was using this chat software, it was nearly so.

As of now, there wasn’t any other software that could replace it.

And today, the Dongfang Hong Group was involved not only in developing and producing mobile phones but also computers.

In the field of computers, they were advancing at the same pace as foreign countries.

There was no talk of any one dominant player.

Dongfang Hong was likewise today.

It could be considered the world’s top brand, though other brands were sprouting up everywhere like bamboo shoots after rain.

How should one describe it?

The world was ahead of the developmental timeline that Song Yunuan knew by more than ten years.

Meanwhile, Xiao Ru from her second aunt’s family had gone to Xiangjiang.

She went to Fanhua and had now reached the management level.

Actually, these were all the children’s decisions; Song He and Lian Xiang had no say in the matter.

If this had been the past, the children would have been overjoyed even in their dreams.

Lian Xiang understood that the two children’s success today was directly related to Song Yunuan.

Helping someone onto the horse and sending them on their way.

She was well aware of all these...

Lian Xiang’s view was correct; they didn’t necessarily all have to be in Beidu, right?

The world was so vast; there were places other than Beidu. Nowadays, Nan City’s development was not inferior to that of Beidu and Hai City.

But Sun Jinrong thought differently, thinking the elder Mr. and Mrs. Song were biased. Could it be they were afraid that the children from these two branches of the family coveted the property of the main branch?

Otherwise, why was the entire main branch developing in Beidu, even to the extent that Song Mingbo’s job was so good?

Is it not that Song Liang and Xia Guilan, the couple, wanted to monopolize Zhilan?

But to tell the truth, does Zhilan belong solely to their family?

No, it belongs to all three families, including the old master and Old Mrs. Song.

Without these people, could both Song Liang and Song Yunuan have achieved what they have today?

There is a saying: "Many hands make light work." Though this might not have been openly discussed, Sun Jinrong still showed it through her words and actions.

However, she stopped mentioning it after being scolded by Old Mrs. Song a few times.

But such thoughts never ceased in her mind.

It all erupted when Huzi needed to attend university in Hai City.

Old Mrs. Song called Sun Jinrong to Beidu, with Huzi present, and naturally, Song Nian came along as well.

That time, Old Mrs. Song was truly furious.

This matter can’t just end like this. Can you, Sun Jinrong, just casually say a few words and then declare, "I spoke without thinking, misunderstood, and that’s the end of it"?

No, this issue must be clarified, or it will remain a hidden danger for the future.

Old Mrs. Song may not care about Sun Jinrong, but she cares about her son.

It’s just like trying to catch mice without wanting to damage the porcelain vase.

Dealing with Sun Jinrong could inevitably hurt her son, after all, they were a couple with a good relationship.

In truth, her youngest son was also somewhat petty.

Back when times were tough, the couple was very calculating.

Sun Jinrong really hated her crippled mother and would have been willing to rip out her heart and spill her blood for them.

Yet she wouldn’t put even a spoonful of rice in Old Mrs. Song’s mouth.

She was also unwilling to live under the same roof as her mother-in-law for even a day.

But she was eating and drinking at her mother-in-law’s expense while using these resources to support her own family.

From another perspective, people often say such a daughter really was not born in vain.

This is not a case of "a daughter married away is like water splashed out."

But from Old Mrs. Song’s perspective, it truly was heartbreaking.

Eventually, they seldom interacted.

Yet when her son came asking for food or money, her heart would soften.

Later, as times improved and they experienced stable days, one became a factory director, and another a section chief in the finance bureau.

According to Old Mrs. Song’s thinking, they should have been satisfied, truly satisfied.

After all, Song Nian and Sun Jinrong couldn’t have even dreamed of such a future at the outset.

But the result? It truly showed that human desires are insatiable.

Or it could be said that many people are perpetually unsatisfied, always looking for higher mountains beyond the ones they’ve scaled.

Why not remember the agreement made back then? If you don’t want to work, join the family business.

If you want to work, then dedicate yourself at your job and don’t meddle in the family business.

But these two couldn’t bear to give up their secure jobs.

What then?

Later, she still split shares among her youngest son’s family.

She wrestled them away from her own holdings.

Bear in mind, they initially neither contributed money nor effort.

But she and the eldest son’s family never mistreated them.

Little Nuan arranged for them both to attend the cadre school for further education and even encouraged them to develop well and relied on them as a back-up.

But in reality, without Little Nuan, her youngest son simply could not have become the director of a large factory with three thousand workers.

A factory director, no less than a bureau-level cadre.

And also Gu Huai’an’s uncle, respected wherever he went.

Now, the timber factory produces a wide variety of goods, mainly engaging in import and export trade.

How can they still be dissatisfied?

After being scolded, the couple turned red in the face and didn’t dare utter a word.
