The Ace Bigshot Becomes A Farmgirl

Chapter 259: A Satisfied Shu Yu

The heir change was a big achievement.

Jiang Li was happy and even a little smug. If it was in the past, as the eldest son of the Jiang family, Jiang Ren could inherit more than half of the Jiang family’s assets. No matter how much his parents doted on him, the share Jiang Li would get was very limited.

Now, he was the one to inherit the family property, and Jiang Ren could forget about taking a single cent with him.

Jiang Li was elated. Meanwhile, Father Jiang and Mother Jiang were waiting for Jiang Ren to apologize.

However, what they didn’t know was that Jiang Ren had been gradually cultivating his own power from when he became involved in the family business in his early years. From the start, he was worried that his parents would favor Jiang Li and harm his own interests.

Of course, Jiang Ren felt that the possibility of this was very small. After all, no matter how muddle-headed his parents were, they could not be so muddle-headed that they would not follow the long-time tradition of the eldest son being the successor.

But now, it seemed that he had overestimated his parents.

Fortunately, Jiang Ren had already made a backup plan, so he quickly began to contact the shopkeepers and steward of the shops and workshops responsible for managing the Jiang family’s business.

Half of the stewards were already his men, and the other half had long been disappointed in Father Jiang.

They felt that the older Father Jiang got, the more muddled his mind became. It was fine for him to love Jiang Li, but he couldn’t be so doting that he couldn’t differentiate right from wrong.

In particular, the matter of breaking off the engagement with the Ding family last time had made them very suspicious of Father Jiang’s judgement.

In the end, the Jiang family had to pay a huge price to make the Ding family let it go. No, they had not let it go. On the surface, the Ding family had already let it go, but in fact, they had secretly made many obstacles for the Jiang family. They had even gathered other businesses to ostracize them.

Although that result was within expectations, the stewards almost vomited blood.

Therefore, the recent days were especially difficult for them.

Even so, Jiang Li did not realize his mistake, and Father Jiang was still indulging him. With a person like Jiang Li inheriting the family business in the future, would there still be a place for stewards like them?

For their own sake, the stewards did not hesitate to support Jiang Ren instead.

Just like that, Father Jiang, who wanted to change the heir, was made into a figurehead.

Not only did Jiang Ren cause Father Jiang to become a figurehead, but Jiang

Ren also looked for the elders of the liang branch families and ooenlv asked to

divide up the family property.

Of course, as the eldest son, Jiang Ren still had to take care of his parents. He just wanted to have Jiang Li leave.

Jiang Li wasn’t willing, but the family elders were all on Jiang Ren’s side.

People tended to seek benefits and avoid harm. Jiang Ren was unstoppable now, and the Jiang branch families still had to rely on the Jiang family to live a good life. Of course, they would not pay attention to a hedonistic son who only knew how to cause trouble.

Jiang Ren was ruthless. He wanted fairness.

Previously, when Jiang Yi left the family, he only had a small wine shop. With that as a precedent, Jiang Li only managed to get one shop in the end.

In the end, it was Mother Jiang who fought desperately for Jiang Li’s additional share of betrothal gifts.

However, they were not much and were referenced from what was prepared when Jiang Yi married Madam Deng.

After dividing the family property, Jiang Ren chased Jiang Li out.

There was only a male attendant who tagged alongside Jiang Li, not even a maid.

With no more protection from the Jiang family, Jiang Li was soon chased after by the many people he offended in the past.

Jiang Li was too exhausted from running around to remember Shu Yu. At the current point, he didn’t even have the right to choose his marriage partner.

Those were all happenings of the future.

Presently, Shu Yu finally stood up and left the Meng residence with satisfaction..
