Jewel Brooch [First Marriage] v. 23
Fu Mingsui was silent for a moment, and responded euphemistically to his determination: "Grandpa, I'm only seventeen." ”
He is not yet an adult, why is the old man so sure?
"Yes, you're only seventeen, and I'm eighty-seven." Fu Xian laughed, his cloudy eyes still staring at the fishing rod in the pond: "But what's the use of this?" Sooner or later, the times to come will belong to you young people. ”
Fu Xian is the first batch of entrepreneurs who really made a fortune in the last century, and his nearly 100-year-old experience is almost legendary, and his eyes are like torches and his mind are like knives.
Handing over such a big property as Jinghui to a child who has not yet reached adulthood in advance, what will happen in the future is a huge gamble, if the bet is lost, the price is a huge amount that the whole family cannot afford.
But Fu Xian almost conceited believed in his own judgment and vision, and he believed that only Fu Ming could make Jinghui continue to be brilliant.
The reason why he was in such a hurry to hand over was because the old man knew that his time was running out.
Fu Xian believed that Fu Mingsui would definitely be able to grow to an amazing point, but he couldn't wait for that time.
So even if he is destined to be the enemy of the whole world and let himself and his teenager fall into a sleepless struggle of public opinion, he still has to do it.
In the more than ten years since Fu Mingsui officially took over Jinghui, the trend of the entire company's profit margin and scale rising and expanding year by year has explained everything.
Fu Xian's gamble back then was correct, he took his life's hard work as a bet and won the name before and after his death.
It's just that Fu Mingsui has been so glamorous over the years, and how embarrassed the clan relatives who forced him to hand over his shares in the first few years after Fu Xian's death.
Although they are all surnamed Fu, everyone is really not of the same mind.
Among them is Fu Yi, the grandfather who is with Fu Ming and Fu Ming.
Fu Yi is the most unpromising of Fu Xian's four children, who became addicted to drugs when he reached middle age, and since then he has no intention of working and no family, and basically soaks in Macau every day.
He has a son of Fu Kunlu under his knees, and Fu Ming has a grandson, a lot of age is not lustful, and he didn't make those messy little three and four and illegitimate children, but he can't quit the problem of gambling addiction.
In the early years, when Fu Xian was alive, Fu Yi just had to be an uncompetitive son to curry favor and sell well, and get some pocket money every month to support his bad problems.
Even if his wife and son are angry and want to cut off relations with him, he never cares.
People want to be happy all their lives, this is Fu Yi's life principle.
Later, Fu Xian died, although Fu Yi had no support, but he relied on his identity as Fu Ming's grandfather and thought that he could be the master of the house and straighten his waist, but he didn't expect that this was the real beginning of his 'miserable' life.
Fu Mingsui has no feelings for himself, the 'grandfather' who lives in Macau all the year round, and he is not used to him, since the third year after taking over Jinghui, he has begun to rectify the nepotism in the family, and the equal distribution of interests has been changed to the model of 'more work and more rewards', which has fundamentally cut off Fu Yi's lifeline.
What could be more terrible than a gambler running out of money? That is to ask gamblers to be good people and work hard.
Over the years, Fu Yi couldn't get money and couldn't continue gambling in Macau, so he had to stay in Jiangcheng.
He relied on his status as an elder to rely on the old and sell the old, and from time to time he had trouble with Fu Ming, but in fact, he was also jealous of his grandson's methods.
Fu Yi can only occasionally be yin and yang, occasionally miserable and miserable, and he has acted a lot.
Now that he learned that Fu Mingsui hadn't asked his elder for advice about getting married, he immediately felt that he had an extra weight to ask the teacher for guilt, and he couldn't wait to call people back.
In any case, the old man must be charged with 'ignoring the elders'.
Fu Mingsui had a clear idea of what Fu Yi wanted to do, and on the way to the old mansion, he told Xu Shu about the Fu family's series of 'modern version of house fights', so that she was prepared.
The man's voice was calm and gentle, and he talked about his family like an objective storytelling software, whether it was talking about going to Jinghui to take power since he just graduated or talking about Fu Yi's nonsense, he looked like an outsider.
There is no half-point arrogance and invitation, but when it comes to 'Fu Xian', it is respectful.
Xu Shu paid attention to the fluctuation of his tone, and listened happily throughout the whole process.
Fu Ming paused slightly, and glanced at her sideways: "You're not afraid?" ”
"I'm not afraid." Xu Shu's eyes were crooked, and her voice was soft: "Because you can deal with him and protect me." ”
It can be heard that although the old man Fu is messing around, Fu Mingsui doesn't take him seriously at all.
Although there is a blood relationship between relatives, if it is the kind of elder who will only pull back his legs and worry about it, there is really no need to get used to it.
Perhaps Fu Xian insisted on handing over Jinghui to Fu Mingsui back then, also because he could see that he was a clear person.
What is the bloodline theory of 'one vein and one branch', Fu Mingsui doesn't care at all.
He only looks at individual ability.
The eldest uncle, the second uncle, he still reuses these capable ones, and Fu Yi, who is on the same branch as him, is a waste, so his means of disposal are more ruthless than anyone else.
After listening to Xu Shu's words, Fu Ming moved slightly with his long eyelashes, and seemed to be distracted thoughtfully for a moment, waiting for a red light to pass before starting the car again.
"You're right, I can protect you." He smiled, "But thank you for your willingness to come with me." ”
Especially after listening to what he said, the girl was still fearless.
In fact, at this time, the best way to respond is to smile and say nothing.
But Xu Shu always remembered that Fu Mingsui scratched his nose just now.
It's quite an intimate move, and then think of their current identity, if they still 'follow the rules'...... It's a bit of a pity.
Xu Shu thought about it, but still bit her lip: "It's okay." ”
She stared at Fu Mingsui with glass-like eyes under her long eyelashes, and asked softly, "When you are your wife, shouldn't you be bolder?" ”
In fact, she has long been mentally prepared for this - she may have to deal with some very tricky social scenes in the future.
Fu Ming glanced at Xu Shu casually.
The girl's face is white and small, delicate and exquisite, and she has a gentle temperament but also has a lot of heart...... But in his eyes, it was still like a lake.
Crystal clear, easy to see the bottom does not affect her charm.
Fu Mingsui smiled: "You were originally a bold person. ”
Otherwise, they wouldn't have gotten to this point.
Chapter 17: Gems
◎ I stood at the highest point, so I was used to 'giving grace'. ◎
The car drove to the courtyard of the villa where Fu Yi lived, and Fu Ming came down with the prepared gifts in the trunk.
He leaned over slightly and whispered in Xu Shu's ear: "I'll say that you bought it in a while." ”
As soon as the words fell, before the girl could respond, someone had already run out of the villa to meet them.
"Third brother!" A girl dressed as a 'little princess' came running, with short black hair and a short black gauze skirt, knee-length boots, and a choker tied around her slender neck.
The overall outfit reflects the fair skin, so dark that it is almost bewitching, and at first glance it is really a very youthful dress - it just doesn't quite fit the solemn atmosphere of the villa behind him.
"Third brother." The little girl looked at Xu Shu quietly and asked with a smile, "Is this my sister-in-law?" ”
"Hmm." Fu Mingsui stretched out his hand and rubbed her head: "Her name is Xu Shu." ”
After speaking, he turned his head sideways and introduced to Xu Shu: "Xiaoshu, this is the daughter of my uncle's family, Fu Yun." ”
"Hello." Xu Shu immediately stretched out her hand and smiled softly at her.
"Sister-in-law is good, sister-in-law is good." Fu Yun stretched out two hands to hold one of Xu Shu's hands, and smiled: "I'm ranked fifth, everyone calls me Xiao Wu, sister-in-law, you can also call me Xiao Wu." ”
As he spoke, he had to take the initiative to help her get her bag.
"Okay......" Xu Shu was surprised and happy by her kindness and politeness, and hurriedly said: "Little Wu, I'll take it myself." ”
Fu Yun understands that most people want to carry the bag by themselves, so she doesn't have to rush to work politely, and she wants to hold her hand with a smile.
As a result, he was cut off by Fu Mingsui.
"Little Five." He was carrying something in one hand, and with the other hand, he grabbed Xu Shu's slender palm hanging by his side, and lightly ordered: "You go in first." ”
“…… Oh. Fu Yun didn't dare to listen, she answered obediently and ran in, a little surprised in her heart-
She originally wanted to brush up on her sense of existence purely , but she didn't expect her always cold third brother and this sister-in-law who suddenly appeared to be quite ... Love?
At least since she was born for the past twenty years, it was the first time she had seen Fu Ming take the initiative to hold a girl's hand.
Xu Shu looked at Fu Yun's back as she jumped in, and couldn't help but smile and ask, "She looks scared of you?" ”
"It's just skinny." Fu Mingsui didn't care much about this matter, and only whispered in her ear: "There are a lot of people coming, it is estimated that it will be a little troublesome." ”
People like Fu Yun have all come over, and the rest of those who want to join in the fun will certainly not lag behind.
Fu Mingsui's deliberate care made Xu Shu slightly stunned, and after a while, he only felt warm in his heart.
The more she got along, the more she felt that Mr. Fu was really a very good person.
They were married by agreement, and they didn't have any feelings, but even so, he took care of her mood in every detail as much as possible......
All along, Xu Shu felt that she already knew him well in the silence, but after really contacting Fu Ming, she felt that her understanding was still one-sided.
Fu Mingsui's excellence is not because she added a layer of filter to her eyes to think that he is good everywhere, but because he is a good person himself.
Whether it is appearance, talent, or attitude and skill towards family members, or even a nominal wife like himself.
With such a person by her side, it is difficult for Xu Shu to be afraid of anything.
Her eyes rolled slightly, and she couldn't help but sigh: "There shouldn't be those eighteen or nineteen-year-old students in the school." ”
"Mr. Fu, I won't embarrass you."
The Fu family is a big family, with a large population of branches inside and out, but there are few people who can really make Fu Ming look at him and climb with him, most of them are just famous.
Now there are not a few people who come to Fu Yi to see the excitement, and want to see what Fu Mingsui's wife who suddenly married is like, there are more than a dozen, but when he really walked in with Xu Shu's arm, the voice that was originally ridiculing in the living room died down again.
"Grandpa." It was Fu Mingsui who took the initiative to give the old man a step down and greeted him with a smile.
Fu Yi sat on the sofa, and when he saw him, he hummed and said, "Should I call you a stranger?" If I hadn't called you three times and twice, you wouldn't have come to me once! ”
"It's better now, I found a wife and got a certificate without telling me, I, an old man, still knew from the newspaper that my grandson was married! Do you still have my grandfather and the Fu family in your eyes? ”
Fu Yi is seventy and six, and he is at an age when half of his body is in the soil, but because of his perennial pampering, he is in good health.
Except for his temples, the old man's face was full of red light, his eyes were bright, and his staring eyes showed that he wanted to find trouble.
Fu Ming smiled casually, his attitude was so indifferent that he was even a little casual: "It seems that grandpa is dissatisfied with me." ”
"If I come to make you angry, then I'll go."
As he spoke, he put down his things, and pulled Xu Shu to turn around and leave.
Fu Mingsui was polite even if he was angry, but everyone could see that he was angry.
Everyone was stunned, but in the end, Bai Rong reacted quickly and hurriedly went over to stop them.
