Chapter 646: Chapter 648: This Is What’s Called a Prestigious Family
Gong Ruini wouldn’t care about the movements of Zhuge Mingshan, but people were all kinds of concerned about them.
At first, she thought it was because they went back for summer vacation, hadn’t even seen them do any business?
Zhuge Mingshan was initially quite happy, that annoying fellow wasn’t around, and no matter who she looked at, her mood was so good.
But because Gong Ruini and her group had left, the things she wanted to do couldn’t be done, which also infuriated Zhuge Mingshan.
But what could she do, no matter how angry she was, she couldn’t show it. The family had already given strict orders not to provoke those few people at Zhuge Zhi’s house.
Zhuge Mingshan wasn’t stupid, nobody in the family liked those annoying people, but why would the elders say such things unless Zhuge Zhi intervened?
Since that was the case, she’d pretend to behave; anyway, the main people weren’t around, so why should she do something to clash with the elders?
Wait and wait, with only a week left before school starts, finally, Gong Ruini and her group were coming back, so she planned to stroll around the front of Zhuge Zhi’s house.
This time, Zhuge Mingshan really wasn’t going to provoke Gong Ruini; instead, she wanted to sniff around to see if Gong Ruini was making quail eggs or fried quail.
Once they really started doing this, then the previous plans could be executed.
To this end, Zhuge Mingshan was very confident; these past days without doing business weren’t they losing a lot of money, since they’re already back, there’s no reason not to do business.
Unexpectedly, as she strolled over, there wasn’t a familiar smell, and instead, she saw Gong Ruini had pasted a piece of paper on the gate. What was going on?
Zhuge Mingshan couldn’t figure it out for a long time, she lifted her legs and walked over, and with a glance, she was stunned.
"Book rental?" No way, how could they come up with such a money-making idea?
Zhuge Mingshan really wanted to laugh, someone whose ancestors were all poor farmers, and they were planning to make money by renting books.
"Do they have so many books?"
"Rural people are just rural people." Zhuge Mingshan really looked down with disdain, she really didn’t expect Gong Ruini to be so money-hungry.
"Really fell into the money pit and can’t get out."
In short, her words were full of disdain.
Gong Jiaming stood behind the door, furious, how could there be such a person, wasn’t it said that the people living nearby had good temperament?
How come they’ve run into such a person now, are all the people in Beijing like this?
Gong Jiaming was quite annoyed because the person outside the door kept speaking more and more unpleasantly.
Gong Jiaming had heard quite a few curse words, but the person outside should be a girl, right? How dare she speak like this, have no shame?
Gong Ruini wasn’t surprised that Zhuge Mingshan would curse like that, if that fellow was like this, she would find it really out of character.
"Hey, Ni Zi, you?" Gong Jiaming was upset why Gong Ruini pulled him, "I was helping you."
Hmph, it can’t be that she thinks the people living here are remarkable and doesn’t want to offend them, right? Hmph, just a coward.
To Gong Jiaming’s disdainful look, "She’s Grandpa Zhuge’s relative, her grandfather is Grandpa Zhuge’s brother."
Just that one sentence forced all of Gong Jiaming’s displeasure back into his stomach.
Gong Jiaming really didn’t dare to connect that foul-mouthed, malicious girl with the smiling figure that satisfied his imagery of a grandpa, "Is she really Grandpa Zhuge’s relative?"
Wait, wasn’t it said that the girl used to be part of a big family? Wasn’t it said that people from big families are all well-mannered, cultured, and cultivated?
How did he come across a girl like this, it’s too unbelievable.
Could it be his own sister was misleading him, Gong Jiaming looked at Gong Ruini incredulously.
See, everyone thinks Zhuge Mingshan shouldn’t be like this, but it just happens to be the case. Gong Ruini also didn’t want to believe it, but the fact was just like that.
Gong Jiaming sighed helplessly and went back inside, but he still felt uncomfortable, regardless of how they were internally, now being judged by such a girl, how could he stomach it?
It’s not that Gong Jiaming has too much compassion, but he thought of how his dad used to peddle the things second uncle sent back from Northeast, and how some people commented on his dad.
Gong Jiaxin found it strange how, with just a turn, her brother looked so annoyed, "Did you quarrel with Ban Xia and them?"
"Or with Guang Ran?" In the entire house, the only people who could make Gong Jiaming unhappy were those four.
"Not them." Gong Jiaming said angrily, recounting the earlier events, "You say Ni Zi’s making money, it’s not impacting them, is it necessary to speak so harshly?"
Speaking harshly? And a relative of Grandpa Zhuge? Gong Jiaxin listened, dumbfounded. Wasn’t Grandpa Zhuge supposed to be from a noble family?
Wasn’t it said that noble families are well-educated and highly cultured? Don’t even mention Grandpa Zhuge, just consider Grandma Cai and the others, they clearly appear to be strictly trained individuals.
How is it that when it comes to a relative of Grandpa Zhuge, it’s like this, suspecting with a glance at Gong Jiaming, could it be that this kid is talking nonsense?
"Hey, sis, do I need to lie about this? It’s what Ni Zi said, and she really spoke with such malice; I absolutely didn’t exaggerate." Gong Jiaming sometimes would embellish his words.
But this time, it really didn’t require him to add anything, just relaying what the other party said was enough.
"Ni Zi said it was her?" Gong Jiaxin didn’t trust her brother, but did she not trust Gong Ruini? It really stunned her, "How could she talk like that."
Various malicious words, Gong Jiaxin wasn’t unfamiliar with hearing them, honestly, she’d heard plenty, but never from a so-called daughter of a noble family.
The most important thing is, "How old is she anyway."
"She and Ni Zi are in the same grade, going to be in fifth grade next year." Gong Jiaming thought about it and felt disgusted, "And they’re in the same school."
"I guess she probably talks badly about Ni Zi at school." Someone with such a malicious mind, wouldn’t they backstab in secret?
"Forget it, you just act like you don’t know." Looking at the angry Gong Jiaming, Gong Jiaxin could only say this, after all, even Gong Ruini doesn’t know how to handle her, and they have even less of an idea of what to do.
Ni Zi also said the same, and now his sister says the same, Gong Jiaming just felt they were a bunch of cowards.
Looking at his brother’s displeased expression, "What does it change to be angry or not?"
Gong Jiaxin was familiar with this powerless feeling, "Don’t you forget where we are."
"If things get too serious, what do you think would happen to Ni Zi." In Gong Jiaxin’s view, Gong Ruini was just freeloading, if things escalated, it wouldn’t be good for anyone.
Gong Ruini hadn’t thought that far; to her, Zhuge Mingshan wasn’t yet good at controlling her temper, or rather, the way the Zhuge family handled her before the vacation made her very dissatisfied.
After that, unable to vent on the main people, wasn’t she holding in a lot of anger? Seeing her back, wouldn’t she be upset?
Gong Ruini thought, let her make a fuss, make a fuss, the more fuss she makes, the harder it would be to act demurely again.
