Zhuang Xian looked at the smile on Lin En’s face and laughed as well. At least her plan had not failed.
Lin En looked around and saw that everyone had left. She winked at Zhuang Xian and asked in a low voice, “How was it? Your mother’s acting skills are not bad, right? It’s all thanks to me that we tricked them over!”
Lin En glanced at the silent Zhuang Ming and Zhuang Hang and complimented, “Your father’s acting skills are also very good, and your second brother’s actions are very fast! Our division of labor and cooperation was perfect!”
Lin En paused for a moment, and the family of five looked at each other and smiled as if they had finally finished a stage play.
Zhuang Huai looked at his fourth sister with admiration and secretly gave her a thumbs up. He lowered his voice and said, “I used to think that I was the smartest person in the world! Only today did I realize that it wasn’t the case. Sister, you’re the smartest person here. I’m going to give this title to you, ‘my genius sister’! Who would’ve thought that you’d be able to use this trick so well, and the effect is so obvious! We’ve checkmated them!”
“How did you know that there were surveillance cameras in the front yard? When you texted mom, did you already predict what would happen? Did you expect Zhuang Jie’s brainless self-destruction?” Zhuang Hang also looked at Zhuang Xian and asked with a faint smile.
He was curious as to how Zhuang Xian had managed to plan all of this in such a short time.
Zhuang Ming coughed lightly to pull everyone back from their exciting thoughts. He said in a low voice, “Let’s not talk about this here. Let’s go home and talk about it. ”

Zhuang Xian looked at Zhuang Ming. Her father was the one who had put in the most effort today. She didn’t know how many of the words and actions Zhuang Ming had just said and done were from the bottom of his heart, or how many of them were his true feelings!
However, she knew that Zhuang Ming still had some expectations for his mother, Fu Qin!

In her previous life, Zhuang Ming had always been too concerned about Fu Qin’s thoughts, which led to them repeatedly suffering losses under Fu Qin’s means of making things difficult for them. Lin En had spent a lot of time and energy to complete the matter of her being on the Zhuang family genealogy!
By the time they were eating, Zhuang Jing and Zhuang Jie had already left. Fu Qin was good at acting and everything was peaceful. She was so enthusiastic toward Zhuang Ming at the dining table that it was as if all the arguments and contentions earlier had never happened!
On the way back from the old Zhang family mansion, Zhuang Jie looked at Zhuang Jing’s cold face and didn’t dare to breathe too hard.
“You’re just like your damn father, an idiot who can’t do anything! What did I expect you to do? You couldn’t even handle such a small matter.” Zhuang Jing still couldn’t hold it in and lost her temper at Zhuang Jie.
She had pampered Zhuang Jie too much, to the point that she couldn’t even use her brain when she did things. Not to mention the surveillance cameras. She was even discovered when she let the dog out! If this wasn’t stupidity, then what was?
Zhuang Jie was already starting to cry. “I’m sorry, mother! I didn’t know why the third brother was with her, and she even can train/control dogs!”
Zhuang Jing took a deep breath and waited for her breathing to calm down before she said, “I was too careless. I didn’t expect the little B*tch that Lin En took in to be so smart!”
Zhuang Jing recalled what had just happened and said with some regret, “I was one step behind!”
Seeing that her mother’s expression had softened a little, Zhuang Jie asked tentatively, “Then do I still need to follow grandma’s punishment?”
After all, she was her only daughter, so there was no reason for Zhuang Jing not to dote on her. After letting out a long sigh, she lazily said, “What else can I do? Your grandma is angry with you this time. You have to be more serious about accepting your punishment! As for the rest, who would care about you at home?”
Zhuang Jie was overjoyed when she heard Zhuang Jing’s words, “That’s great, I don’t want to stay at home and do nothing! Mom, you’re not going to deduct three months of my pocket money, are you?”
Zhuang Jing pinched Zhuang Jie’s face and said lovingly, “I won’t touch your pocket money, but you have to at least behave yourself for the next few months. Don’t make your grandma angry again, understand?”
Zhuang Luan nodded obediently and did not dare to object. She thought to herself, ‘As expected, Mom won’t blame me! Grandma probably wouldn’t do that either. She loved her so much. She had no choice but to do that in front of everyone!’

As she consoled herself, Zhuang Jie felt much better. The humiliation that she had suffered at Zhuang Xian’s hands today, she would return it to Zhuang Xian a hundred times over in the future! She swore!
