1538 Handling the Fu Parents

Chi Shuyan left the Cai residence with a deeper understanding of the old lady’s desperate wish for a grandson.

Still, it was fortunate that Old Madam Cai was around. Chi Shuyan was relieved when she heard about the Fu family and her teacher. She returned to the hotel first. With her instructions just now, if there was any movement in the Fu family, Old Madam Cai would most likely immediately let her know. Thinking this, Chi Shuyan heaved a sigh of relief.

On the other side, Old Madam Cai specially went to the market to buy a pigeon for the housekeeper to stew for her daughter-in-law, Shufen, and told the housekeeper to make sure she finished it, before she went to the Fu residence next door.

The housekeeper was very astonished at the old lady’s att.i.tude toward Mr. Cai’s ex-wife.

Du Shufen felt overwhelmed.

It could be said that when she returned to the Cai family from the village in the last day or so, she was both overwhelmed and shocked by what happened in the Cai family as well as the old lady’s att.i.tude toward her.

She actually hadn’t wanted to come back. In the end, she listened to her mother and went back to the Cai family for the sake of her two children. Before Du Shufen came back, she made up her mind that no matter how bad the old madam and Li Tian’s att.i.tude toward her was, she would endure it for the sake of her children. Who would have thought that as soon as she came back, the old lady and Cai Youcai told her that Youcai had divorced Li Tian and kicked her out.

Not only that, the old lady’s every action indicated that she wanted Da Shufen to reconcile with Cai Youcai. Before, the old lady had been anxious about getting a grandson, and didn’t treat her two granddaughters as part of the Cai family at all. Most of the time, she ignored them. However, when Da Shufen came back this time, not only had the old lady’s att.i.tude toward her changed drastically, she had become unusually kindly

At first, when she saw how good the old lady was to her two daughters, Du Shufen was very worried that the old lady had ulterior motives.

Now, she could vaguely guess that the reason the old lady was good to her and the children was most likely because of that young lady just now. That young lady said that Da Shufen could give Youcai a son. She didn’t really believe it, but she was sincerely grateful to this young lady for helping her. If it wasn’t for this young lady, how could the old lady be willing to let Cai Youcai bring her and the children back?

The children had suffered so much with her after so many years. Du Shufen had always felt very guilty toward them. Occasionally, her parents would say that she was too cowardly and was a hopeless case; if she had even a bit of courage, her children wouldn’t have been implicated and made to suffer along with her.

In fact, Cai Youcai used to send her money every month, and she and the children had been able to live fairly well. After Cai Youcai married Li Tian, Li Tian was very generous at first and allowed Cai Youcai to send money to her and the children. Later, for some reason, she became very strict with Cai Youcai and his money.

Cai Youcai would occasionally transfer some money to her and the children, but Li Tian wouldn’t allow it. After that, life in the village became a little difficult for Da Shufen and her two children.

She thought that she and her children would suffer for the rest of their lives. Who would have thought that they would still be able to return to the Cai family? Li Tian had also been chased out of the Cai family by the old madam and Cai Youcai.

Thinking this, Du Shufen decided that she would thank that young lady properly at some point.

Old Madam Cai didn’t know what her daughter-in-law was thinking. She was asking the Fu family about Fu Qing and Zhao Junrong’s marriage.

Father and Mother Fu had firmly refused to let their daughter marry Zhao Junrong before, especially Father Fu. However, Zhao Junrong had been performing well recently, and he treated their daughter well. In addition, both parents knew that their daughter was someone who walked a path to the end. If she wanted to marry Zhao Junrong, she had to marry him.

Father and Mother Fu’s cold and hard hearts had softened a little these days. They only had this one daughter, and wanted her to live a good life.

Of course, Father and Mother Fu also had their own considerations. Their daughter was not marrying out, but was bringing a husband into the Fu family; in the future, that rascal, Zhao Junrong, wouldn’t dare treat their daughter badly even if he had designs on their Fu family a.s.sets. The two parents understood this, which was why their hearts softened and they accepted the relations.h.i.+p.

Although the parents hadn’t agreed to the marriage, they agreed to let Zhao Junrong go to some blind fortune teller to read the birth characters of the two. If they really were a match made in heaven, they might as well stop making things difficult for them.

The old lady probed about their marriage. Mother Fu had a good relations.h.i.+p with Old Madam Cai, so she didn’t hide it and revealed that she planned to have the couple’s birth characters read. If they really were a match made in heaven, the Fu parents wouldn’t make things difficult for the couple and would agree to let them marry.

After saying that, Mother Fu sighed and said, “In the end, we only have this one daughter. If she’s happy, we’re also happy. Besides, Junrong seems to be performing well recently, and Ah Qing likes him. He’s also agreed to marry into the family. My husband and I have already discussed the future, and we will treat this child better. I hope Junrong will respect our wishes and treat Ah Qing and the Fu family well in the future. We’ll be satisfied with that!”

Old Madam Cai didn’t agree with Mother Fu’s way of ‘exchanging sincerity with sincerity.’ Even if you were good to someone, it still depended on the person, right? Not everyone knew how to repay kindness.

Besides, there were many ingrates in this world.

To be honest, Old Madam Cai really didn’t have a good impression of Fu Qing’s boyfriend.

At a glance, that Zhao guy looked like a pretty boy ingrate who lived off women. Who knew why this daughter of the Fu family had taken a fancy to him. The Fu couple thought too well of and doted on Fu Qing too much.

Of course, after listening to the Fu family, Old Madam Cai felt more and more that a grandson was really too important. Even if the man married into the family, wouldn’t the family name change in the future?

Moreover, it wasn’t safe to let a man marry into the family. What if he was an ingrate who dumped his wife and married another woman? Would the family fortune also completely change hands?

Fortunately, the Master had said that as long as Old Madam Cai could handle this matter with the Fu family, she would give them a grandson. Otherwise, when the old lady thought about how the Cai family might only have two daughters in this life, her heart hurt terribly.

Not long after, Old Madam Cai had a thought and immediately found something to say to Mother Fu. “Sister, you’re right. Isn’t the most important thing for your daughter herself to be happy? Although I only have one son, I have two granddaughters. When they marry in the future, it will naturally be based on their own willingness and happiness.”

After a pause, Old Madam Cai lied through her teeth. “The first time I saw Ah Qing’s boyfriend, he looked pretty good. The two of them might really be a match made in heaven.”

Father and Mother Fu were very happy that the old lady was willing to support them. They had heard many people talk about their daughter’s marriage before, but most of them didn’t approve of it. They said that Zhao Junrong, that rascal, coveted the Fu family a.s.sets.

Father and Mother Fu still believed in their daughter’s taste. After hearing the old lady praise their daughter’s boyfriend for being good, the couple was overjoyed.

At that moment, Old Madam Cai changed the subject and slapped her thigh. She suddenly said, “By the way, Sister, speaking of which, it’s very important for these two children to find someone to read their birth characters before they get married. If you don’t have anyone reliable, can I introduce you to someone?”

Without waiting for Father and Mother Fu to refuse, Old Madam Cai immediately said, “Although the Master I recommend is a little young, she’s very good at divination. Moreover, you don’t have to say anything. She can describe 18 generations of your ancestors just by looking at your palm. What’s even more amazing is that this Master has given people guidance before and helped them avoid calamities. Those who look for that Master to read their fortunes can queue for several days just to wait for her to read their fortune. However, that Master only reads ten fortunes a day. How can she not be amazing?”

Old Madam Cai spoke for a long time. Seeing Father and Mother Fu’s curious and hesitant expressions, she continued, “Sister, we’ve been neighbors for so many years. I can trick others, but I would never trick the both of you. You know what kind of person I am. If it wasn’t for the fact that the Master really is so reliable and amazing, I wouldn’t have brought her up! Ah Qing can be considered a daughter I’ve watched grow up. I also want her to live well in the future!”

The old lady’s tone was incomparably sincere. Most importantly, she was very good at talking. Sure enough, Father and Mother Fu agreed, and immediately decided to let the old lady take them to see the Master tomorrow morning. Before that, Mother Fu asked worriedly, “Sister Cai, if this Master is so amazing and there are so many people waiting for their fortunes to be read every day, can we see her tomorrow? The reading for my daughter is a little urgent, and we can’t wait.”

Seeing Father and Mother Fu relent, Old Madam Cai hurriedly agreed. “No problem, there’s definitely no problem. I have a good relations.h.i.+p with that Master, as I’ve asked her for help. Your matter concerns marriage, which is a big thing, so she’ll definitely make an exception and agree. Then, it’s settled. I’ll wait outside your place tomorrow morning at 8am.”
