Chapter 402: Old and Stupid
After Fu Chen returned, he felt much more relaxed.
After taking a shower, he was not sleepy, so he took out a book from his bag and read.
If the burden on you is too heavy, then throw it away and travel light.
When Liu Meilan saw Fu Chen the next day, she also noticed something different. Fu Chen in front of her was the handsome guy who made people happy again!
Except for breakfast, Fu Chen had lunch and dinner at Liu Meilan's house.
Of course, Fu Chen not only eats and works, but also plays chess and chats with the old man.
In the past, it was Mr. Fu who called Mr. Liu, but now Mr. Liu often calls Mr. Fu.
Let’s not talk about anything else, just say that Fu Chen played chess with him today, Fu Chen helped with cooking, and Fu Chen took him for a walk…
Although Mr. Fu on the other end of the phone was smiling, he was very angry in his heart.
He knew clearly that Mr. Liu did it on purpose, but he still had to smile along, feeling very suffocated.
If it were anyone else, Mr. Fu would have hung up the phone without hesitation; but the Fu family was in the wrong and had found themselves in a difficult situation.
He could hang up the phone, but his grandson is still in the Liu family, being a filial son and grandson!
If the Liu family showed Fu Chen a bad attitude, it would be Fu Chen who would be wronged, but it would be him and the Fu family who would be hated by Fu Chen.
That night, Mr. Fu hung up the phone angrily again.
Madam Fu smiled smugly, "Angry, what's the point of being angry now? You're not a good person at home or abroad!"
"I'm already feeling miserable enough, so please don't make me angry!" Mr. Fu glared at his wife, "If you make me angry to death, you'll become a widow!"
Mrs. Fu laughed when she heard this. "If you had said this 40 years ago, or even before, I might have been a little scared. But now, I have many children and grandchildren!"
When Mr. Fu heard this, he also laughed, "I made a joke just to make you laugh! You never tried to persuade me before!"
Madam Fu snorted, "Haven't I advised you enough? But what did you say about me? You said you had to do this for Fu Chen and the entire Fu family."
"When you said that, I only believed three points of it. The other seven points were your stubbornness and obstinacy! You think the Liu family is not as good as the Fu family. But in the eyes of the Liu family, the Fu family is not without shortcomings."
"It's good now. The Liu family's daughter is only twenty this year. Even if she waits another five or six years, she will only be twenty-five or twenty-six. But what about our Fu Chen? How old is he?"
"They say that distance creates beauty, but distance can also create estrangement and third parties. Even if our Fu Chen doesn't mess around with other girls outside, can you guarantee that no other girls will be attracted to Fu Chen when he is in school?"
"Also, Meilan is so pretty, has such a good family background, and has a good career. How can others not be jealous of such a good girl? How can others not pursue her? Anyway, I don't believe it. In short, because of your previous willful and foolish behavior, Fu Chen has taken a long detour in marriage."
Mr. Fu was annoyed by what his wife said. He kept scratching his head and the more he thought about it, the more he felt something was wrong.
"Am I really getting senile? Did I really do something like this?"
Madam Fu rolled her eyes. "If it wasn't you who did it, then was it me? Or have you been in a trance lately? Do you want to go to the hospital?"
Mr. Fu smacked his lips, "He's been possessed by a ghost! I have to live in the Taoist temple for a while!"
"Then go ahead! Reflect on yourself!" Madam Fu waved her hand, "Eat more vegetables, and maybe your mind will clear up!"
Mr. Fu asked back, "Aren't you worried about me? How about you come with me?"
Madam Fu shook her head firmly. "I'm not going! Although Baiyun Temple is quiet, it's so far from the city. If I have a headache or a fever, or something happens to me, the ambulance won't be able to get to the city in time."
"We are all in good health, why do we say such unlucky words?" Mr. Fu waved his hands quickly. Although he is old, he doesn't want to die!
Madam Fu didn't know whether to laugh or cry. "Did I say something wrong? Have you forgotten our age? I was injured in my early years. I'm lucky to be alive now."
"If there is an accident, in the city, the ambulance will arrive quickly and maybe we can save the patient. If we are far away, if there is a sudden cerebral hemorrhage or coronary heart disease, there will be no time to send the patient to the hospital."
"Even if you have a health care doctor with you, you still have to go to the hospital when you encounter special circumstances. You should know this better than me!"
Mr. Fu recalled that he fainted two years ago. Because he was sent to the hospital for treatment in time and recovered promptly, he had no sequelae.
After his wife said this, Mr. Fu never mentioned going to Baiyun Temple for recuperation again.
In fact, you can recuperate at home, there is no need to travel so far.
Liu Meilan could also feel the change in the Fu family's attitude.
Because Ms. Yuan called her twice this week. In the past, she was lucky enough to call once a month.
Liu Meilan responded politely to Ms. Yuan's enthusiasm.
Of course, Ms. Yuan could also feel Liu Meilan's politeness, and she felt uncomfortable.
While talking to her son on the phone, Ms. Yuan kept reminding Fu Chen to be patient.
Fu Chen understands better than anyone that this relationship is hard-earned.
Whether it was money or career, the help Fu Chen could provide to Liu Meilan was very little, or even none at all.
Apart from this sincere and passionate love, Fu Chen has no way to repay Liu Meilan's feelings.
Therefore, he was extremely patient, and he and Liu Meilan got along harmoniously and happily on Sifang Island without being disturbed by the outside world.
Liu Meilan went out to sea to fish, and just as she returned to shore, she received a call from her second brother!
Liu Meilan didn't have time to eat. She went back to change her clothes and rode her scooter to her second brother's company.
"Second brother, you didn't tell me what the good news was on the phone?" Liu Meilan asked with a smile.
Liu Yiwen smiled happily, "Meilan, we're rich!"
"Have all the treasures from the sea been fished out?" Liu Meilan asked, "Isn't that too fast?"
Liu Yiwen smiled and replied: "During the week I was in Beijing, I called the staff to get ready. After I came back, I took them out to sea!"
"This time our company rented a submersible from the relevant department. We can see the seabed and operate the robot to retrieve things from the sunken ship!"
Liu Meilan was surprised and asked, "It's so advanced now?"
Liu Yiwen smiled and said, "We don't have such advanced robots in our country. I rented this robot from abroad. Although it is expensive, it is very useful."
"Although we have brought up the gold from the seabed, there are still many handicrafts. Although we can make some money this time, it's not as much as last time."
Hearing this, Liu Meilan shook her head and smiled bitterly, "My second brother, it's already good to have these. How can you always have as much as last time? How can such a good thing happen?"
