Chapter 172 Meng Lu Marries into the Cheng Family (Starting from the Bottom of the Company)
Meng Lu finally passed the physical examination and was confirmed to be an innocent young girl, and then she was married into the wealthy family with a formal wedding ceremony. Meng Lu was overjoyed. Thinking back to her previous life, when she married Chen Lixin, they didn't even have a very ordinary wedding. It was because the Chen family was too poor, or because they didn't value her.
Meng Lu, dressed in a gorgeous white wedding gown, was surrounded by people as she entered the bridal chamber. She sat on the edge of the bed, her heart filled with joy and emotion.
Just then, Cheng Yu walked in and looked at her tenderly. Meng Lu looked up, a fleeting glint of doubt and tears in her eyes.
"Thank you for giving me such a grand wedding. This wedding will be the most precious gift of my life!" Meng Lu said softly. Cheng Yu gently held her hand. "You deserve all of this for me."
However, right after their wedding night, Meng Lu discovered that her mother-in-law had deliberately made her serve her in-laws tea and water twice a day, morning and evening, and wash the wealthy elderly couple's feet every night.
Of course, Meng Lu objected in her heart, but on the surface, she still had to pretend to be obediently serving the two wealthy elders of the Cheng family.
Of course, she didn't tell Cheng Yu about this. This could be one of the prerequisites for her growth in completing the "Time and Space Laws" mission.
Although the family is wealthy and powerful, it also has complex interpersonal relationships. There is open and covert struggle among the sisters-in-law, and the uncles and aunts each have their own agendas.
But Meng Lu wasn't afraid, after all, in her previous life she had experienced the cutthroat competition of poverty and the complexities of life in the entertainment industry!
With her intelligence and precognition from her past life, she will cleverly use her abilities to navigate the challenges of this wealthy family after her transmigration, encountering new members who have just entered her new life and even the unpredictable nature of these unusual family members!
Whether in her past life, present life, or even her two rebirths, Meng Lu never dared to imagine that she would one day marry into a wealthy family.
She had to thank the system's "Spatial Laws" for sending her to this city to complete her (career) mission, and then for the chance encounter with a wealthy and handsome businessman with a solid background, who became her wife.
The daily life of the wealthy is indeed a life that ordinary children can only dream of. They eat well, wear designer clothes, and carry handbags worth millions. Yang Yumei is using the false name Meng Lu, but her in-laws only know Meng Lu. She wants to use her real name from her previous life, Yang Yumei, so that her real name and herself can enjoy this kind of good life.
But there was no other way; she had to use it. What else could she do? This wasn't a place for her to be willful.
She married into a wealthy family and became the eldest daughter-in-law, with servants attending to her every day. Her life was exciting and full of novelty.
As time went by, she did indeed forget the tasks the system had given her.
She's just like Liu Bei in the Romance of the Three Kingdoms, who married a woman from Eastern Wu but was then trapped there by Zhou Yu's scheme. At this point, Liu Bei only knew how to eat, drink, and be merry, completely forgetting his original purpose.
One day, Meng Lu was admiring the flowers in the garden when her sister-in-law Zhang Min came over and said sarcastically, "Oh, the eldest young mistress is really leisurely, not doing anything. She's living quite comfortably."
Meng Lu's inner alarm bells were ringing, but she still responded with a smile. Their words were laced with subtle barbs, with Li Wanting trying to find fault with Meng Lu.
That night, Meng Lu was alone in her room reflecting on the day's events when she suddenly remembered a task she had long forgotten.
She hurriedly searched the system interface, only to discover that if she didn't complete the task soon, she would be forcibly eliminated. Meng Lu broke out in a cold sweat and decided to pull herself together.
Then, she began to clear her mind, and she decided what to do next.
Then she sweetly told Cheng Yu, who was lying next to her, her demands. She said that for more than half a year since she married into the wealthy family, all she did all day was eat, play, and go to the street to buy designer clothes and bags.
She also felt bored and lonely at home, so she decided to go to work at Cheng's company.
At first, Cheng Yu refused, but Meng Lu's sweet and charming words eventually made him reluctantly agree.
However, her mother-in-law's behavior was unusual! She disagreed? Meng Lu looked at her mother-in-law with suspicion, wondering what she was up to.
The mother-in-law sneered, "Hmph, go to work at the company? What kind of decorum is it for a daughter-in-law of the Cheng family to show her face in public? Besides, what do you know about business? Are you trying to cause trouble at the company?"
Meng Lu hurriedly explained that she just wanted to learn about management and related knowledge so that she could contribute to the Cheng family. However, her mother-in-law remained unmoved and even said that if she insisted on going to the company, she would divorce her.
Meng Lu was furious. She knew her mother-in-law was just afraid that she would gain a foothold in the company and threaten the interests of other family members. But she wouldn't give up easily; if the soft approach didn't work, she'd have to take a hard one.
Meng Lu secretly investigated some financial loopholes in Cheng's company and quietly collected evidence.
A few days later, she took the documents to her mother-in-law and calmly said, "Mom, if you don't agree to me going to the company, it will be bad for the Cheng family's reputation if these things get out."
The mother-in-law was shocked, never expecting Meng Lu to have such a trick up her sleeve. In the end, the mother-in-law had no choice but to compromise and agree to let Meng Lu go to work at the company.
Meng Lu secretly breathed a sigh of relief; she had finally taken the first step in completing the mission.
However, Meng Lu shouldn't be too happy yet. She was first assigned to start from the bottom at the real estate company. Meanwhile, she secretly arranged for her second son's wife, Li Wanting, to become a sales manager and secretly monitor Meng Lu.
Meng Lu arrived at the bottom of the real estate company and, without complaining, threw herself into her work with great enthusiasm. She knew her mother-in-law was deliberately making things difficult for her, but she believed that as long as she achieved results, she could change the situation.
At the bottom of society, Meng Lu encountered various thorny issues. Her colleagues were either jealous or distant towards her because she was a young mistress. But Meng Lu didn't care and used her past life experience to solve one problem after another.
Li Wanting thought Meng Lu would give up, but seeing Meng Lu's tenacity, she began to resort to underhanded tactics.
She secretly modified the data reports compiled by Meng Lu, attempting to make Meng Lu make a mistake and be punished. However, Meng Lu had anticipated this underhanded tactic and had made a backup.
At the meeting, the fact that the data had been altered was revealed in front of senior management, pointing the finger directly at the sales department where Li Wanting worked.
After learning about this, Meng Lu's mother-in-law was very impressed with her. Cheng Yu also admired Meng Lu's wisdom and decisiveness even more.
Taking this opportunity, Meng Lu proposed to be more involved in the project planning. Although her mother-in-law was displeased, she had no choice but to reluctantly agree given Meng Lu's demonstrated abilities.
Meng Lu seized the opportunity and took another step closer to completing the task.
However, the wealthy father-in-law and mother-in-law wanted Meng Lu to have a grandson, specifically to give Cheng Yu a healthy baby boy, because the Cheng family needed a descendant and a boy to inherit Cheng Yu's business after they passed away!
