She Is Not a Witch

Chapter 78: Yellow and green 2 color camellia

   "Miss Lacie, I don't quite understand what you mean."

   Mei Lu opened her mouth, still thinking about avoiding the important and neglecting. Many of these things could not be decided by her as the eldest daughter, even Patriarch Huos dare not promise now.

Perhaps in the eyes of outsiders, the Hellis family is one of the five largest chambers of commerce in Hopeland. It is very powerful, but only she knows that the interior of the Hellis family is gradually divided, and the master’s family has slowly been unable to control the overall situation. At this time Standing in line will only make this internal gap bigger and bigger.

   It's not that she didn't know what Lorrain Hill meant, but she couldn't speak.

"More than ten years ago, Calites and Hellis were fighting over the spice trade. Did you know about this?" Lorrain Hill looked at the fire in the fireplace, the firewood was burning quietly, and occasionally there were subtle messages. The crackling sound.

   "I probably know a little bit." Mei Lu seemed to have thought of something, her face a little unnatural.

"At that time, Lord Angus considered the future development and was willing to put aside prejudices and conflicts, step back and let go of the spice industry in the Southern Islands, and the previous generation of Hellis Patriarchs also retaliated by repaying their own forest farms and some manors. Transfer out. In this way, the two sides put aside their prejudices and helped each other, and finally they all consolidated their market and position in the alliance."

   "But no one would have thought that the loyal Hellis family had set up a bureau for the Patriarch of Calites, trying to use a child of his own to obtain the inheritance of Calites and split the chamber of commerce."

   "Does Miss Mei Lu know about this?" At this point, Lorrain Hill slowly raised his head, and looked at the Hellis parent and daughter on the opposite side again.

   "I...I probably know something." Looking at Lorrain Hill's stunning blue eyes, she could only admit bitterly.

   This incident was really done by the Hollis family. Afterwards, the reconciliation was never told to Angus. Ten years have passed since I thought, and Angus is no longer there. Everything is over. Who would think that the new Patriarch of the Calites still knew the truth?

   "Uncle Ceres is the last time he is a coachman today and sent me to visit him. After tomorrow, he will quit his job at home and go to the south to provide for the elderly, and he won't come back again."

   Lorraine Hill continued to talk about something that seemed to have nothing to do with it, but Mellow understood that this meant that all the actions and weakness of their Hollis family had long been seen through by this young lady.

  Is there no way out? Mei Lu looked down at the cup, scattered green tea leaves slowly flowing in the cup, and then sank to the bottom of the cup.

Recalling the childhood scene, everything resembles yesterday, when my grandfather was still alive, and the uncles in the family gathered together, often eating together, and talking to each other recently where there are new raw materials and which routes have good profit margins. , Which new product is popular with everyone, it is very lively.

As the eldest daughter in her family, she often entertains the younger brothers and sisters, taking them to play, read books, and fly kites. Uncles often praise her and bring her gifts from all parts of the Xuehua Seven Kingdoms. That is also her best When you are happy.

   But with the death of my grandfather, everything has gradually become bad since my father took over. When my father came up, he messed up a few projects. Uncles were dissatisfied with grievances, so they gradually stopped observing the orders of the master, and his father felt that he was not this material, and began to indulge himself, indulge in pleasure, and stop worrying about family affairs. , So much so that she has been making decisions in recent years.

   But she is just a daughter, and her seniority and seniority can't overwhelm those uncles. Even the brothers and sisters who knew each other before have become cold and indifferent sometimes.

   As the heat slowly dissipated, the tea in the cup gradually cooled down, and the tea leaves no longer fluttered, just like stagnant water. Mei Lu raised her head and said in a low voice.

   "I'm very sorry, Miss Lacey, now the Hollis family is not qualified to be your ally."

   "Why do you say that?"

   "Perhaps it is still the gorgeously blooming camellia, but the branches under the petals have long been separated. I can only represent one of them. The interior of the Hollis family has long been divided."

   "According to legal principles, your master still holds more than 50% of the shares." Lorraine Hill was not disappointed.

"That's just legal theory. The trade unions of the Wilga Business Union are not like the kings of the kingdom. They have so much power. Most of the time they are local autonomy. Most of the members of Hopland's branch come from our five major chambers of commerce. Regarding how much binding you have?"

   "But you still have more than 50% of the de jure shares. This is indisputable justice." Lorraine Hill repeated again, his eyes shining on the fire, as if flames were burning in it.

   "I understand, but..."

   "But you dare not get back what belongs to you?" Lorrain Hill interrupted Mei Lu's words.

   "But can you watch your family fall apart in your generation?"

  "Wait, there will be no results~www.readwn.com~Lorlandhill put the tea cup on the table.

"After you take back your rights and everything, your relatives and uncles may have a big fight and resentment, but they still have to rely on you, and there will still be times when they will sit together again. If they split up, their family property would have been If you get in the wrong position, you will be even more afraid of your future pursuits, and you will have darker thoughts and thoughts."

   "Meiro, you don't want to see the worst result."

"I......."

   Mei Lu looked at the dream girl in a black dress in front of her. She admonished like an angel and bewitched like a demon, and she couldn't speak for a while.

   Lorraine Hill didn't ask Mei Lu to answer immediately. She knew that the change in concepts and habits would take time to digest slowly.

   Then she stood up, walked to the fireplace, took off the teapot roasting by the fire, and then helped Mei Lu and her cup to refill the boiling tea.

Mei Lu sat quietly on the sofa, watching the hot tea leaning out of the pot, tracing an arc, rising white mist, and then flowing into the white gold-rimmed porcelain cup with a sinking bottom. The tea leaves tumbling in the hot water again, the light green tea leaves in the amber liquid, like a small boat undulating in the stormy sea.

   Helis, yellow and green two-color camellia, blooming in winter and spring, the flowers are rich, dignified and elegant.

   "Only camellia is very durable, and the deep moon alone can occupy the spring breeze."-Ju Qiqi (Song·Zeng Ji raccoon) rhyme with east rhyme

   "I see, Lacey-sama, can you give me some time?"

   Mei Lu raised her head and looked at Lorraine Hill with a relieved smile. In the light of the fire, her chestnut golden hair reflected a faint light.
