Butler Kang thought so too. He had thought that Shi Jin would want something, but she did not want anything.
"That simple?" Old Master Fu asked.
The reason he said it was simple was because he didn't really oppose Shi Jin.
He was the one who had arranged the marriage with Old Master Li. Even though he disliked Shi Jin, as long as Shi Jin didn't cause trouble, Old Master Fu knew that he would acknowledge her sooner or later. It was just a probation period now.
They were already married. What else could they do?
"Yes, it's that simple. I actually don't care about your attitude towards me. Just treat it as the attitude I gave you in the past, and you returned it, but the person who gave you attitude and was caught in the middle of it wasn't me. Anyway, my skin is thick, and my heart doesn't miss a beat when I'm frequently scolded by tens of thousands of people, but Xiuyuan is your grandson, and he cares about your feelings."
When Shi Jin said this, she was gentle and calm. However, for some reason, her words had the ability to pierce people's hearts.
Old Master Fu looked at her seriously. "Is it that simple?"
"Grandpa, what did you think I would want?"
Old Master Fu was stunned. He recalled that the Li Family was also a family that was on the cusp of success. No, the Li Family had only been defeated for a short period of time, but with Gu Jingyuan and Gu Zehan
around, how could they be defeated forever?
What did Shi Jin lack? She did not lack anything.
He smiled and shook his head. "You should know that sooner or later I'll accept you."
"It's better early than late." Shi Jin smiled as well. "I can't bear to see Xiuyuan frown even for a moment."
Old Master Fu burst into laughter, and Butler Kang followed suit.
"Shi Jin, Shi Jin, I remember that you were eager to leave Xiuyuan. What are your thoughts now?"
"Grandpa, people's eyes can be blinded by clouds for a moment, but they won't be blinded forever."
Old Master Fu nodded. "You've finally grown up."
"You flatter me, Grandpa."
"But..." Old Master Fu looked at her again." I can be kind to you, but without Xiuyuan around, I will still test your character. Shi Jin, I hope that you have really become a good child, worthy of Xiuyuan."
"If Xiuyuan isn't here, you can act however you like."
After Shi Jin left, Old Master Fu couldn't help nodding. "Butler Kang, what do you think?"
"I think Young Madam is much better than she used to be. She's sensible and intelligent. Not bad at all."
"It seems like the Li family is really good at raising children. Ever since she went back, she has changed a lot. It's just a pity that those ten years before her..." Old Master Fu could not help but feel emotional.
"Old Master, this is the new tea that Miss Qin sent over.
Please try it." Butler Meng walked over. "See if it suits your taste."
"Alright, bring it over."
Butler Meng brought it over and placed it in front of Old Master Fu.
Old Master Fu smelled the tea and his spirits were lifted. "This tea smells pretty good."
"That's what Miss Qin said as well. She said that the tea's calming effect is the best. She spent a long time brewing it before she managed to make this little bit. I wonder if she will be able to produce such good tea in the future."
Old Master Fu took two small sips and was instantly invigorated. "This tea tastes elegant the moment it enters your mouth, and the aftertaste is long and lingering. It's as if you're in the midst of green mountains and clear waters. Smelling the fresh scent of the air after the rain makes one feel refreshed. It's really good tea, really good tea!"
Butler Meng smiled and said, "I will tell Miss Qin the truth."
"All right. Go on. Tell her not to work too hard on her usual schedule. Her health must come first."
Old Master Fu sounded apologetic. It was indeed a pity that such a good child couldn't marry Fu Xiuyuan.
It was hard on her. She was always thinking about him. It was so thoughtful.
Butler Meng reported to Qin Fanya. He even brought along an expensive gift.
"This is the gift Old Master said to give Miss Qin."
Qin Fanya's heart turned cold when she saw the gift.
In the past, Old Master Fu was rarely so polite. The more polite he was, the less opportunities she had and that was why he felt guilty, using gifts to make up for it.
However, did she lack this gift? This was not what she wanted!
"Okay. Go back and ask Grandpa Fu what kind of tea he wants to drink. I can send it to him anytime."
