Last time Ye Jian stayed in the guest room. They did not let the butler to specifically clean up a room for her, so Father Fu immediately went up to clean the room now that they were back home.
The room that was prepared for Ye Jian was originally the old gentleman’s room, but because the old gentleman didn’t want to climb up and down the stairs, he used the room downstairs. And the room upstairs with good lighting became the study room.
And now it was Ye Jian’s sleeping room.
The old Sir knew that it was the best room when he heard it, and he repeatedly praised Father Fu for his meticulous work; he was relieved.
Seeing Father Fu being praised like a child by the old man, Ye Jian couldn’t help smiling.
Father Fu, who was accustomed to being praised by the old man like a child, saw his daughter smiling. At that moment, she really looked like his wife when she was young, gentle like an orchid, making people feel good.
At that time, he couldn’t forget his wife’s gentle smile, that was why he didn’t waste any time, he only used one year to chase her and marry her.
Ye Jian was indeed tired, but she did not immediately go upstairs. She accompanied the old man for breakfast and talked to Father Fu about her school. She didn’t return to her room until 7 o’clock.
A home with a daughter was indeed different. Everywhere felt warmth.
After watching his granddaughter walking upstairs, the old man smiled and said, “Reunited, our family is really reunited now.”
“Yes, and when I bring Hong Mei (Red Plum) back, our family will be truly reunited.” Father Fu also laughed, thinking of his wife. His smile was so loving that the fine lines around the corners of his eyes were much deeper, “Dad, I am will accompany Jian’er back to school later in the evening, and then I will go pick up Hong Mei.”
Speaking of the family’s daughter-in-law, the old gentleman sitting with his hands on crutches suddenly became cold. The pair of old but wise eyes took a glance upstairs, and the old voice was much deeper, “Yu Sheng, regarding your wife’s matter… I think you better talk to Jian’er carefully.”
“I talked to her about this matter last time, but I could feel that she deliberately avoided the matter. I’m thinking she’s hiding something. You also know how hard it would be for an unmarried and pregnant woman in those years. If let’s say… I mean, if Hong Mei really has remarried, you should move on.”
“You ask first. I know you are happy, but you can’t be reckless. You understand?”
The old gentleman had another hunch in his heart, but he didn’t know how to put it into words.
“Don’t worry, I know what I do. I will not embarrass Hong Mei, nor will I embarrass Jian’er. I have treated both mother and daughter badly for more than 20 years. I’ve owed both mother and daughter for more than 20 years. I would be worse than animals if I were to embarrass them now.”
Father Fu sighed and replied. The astringency in his heart was already overwhelming his body.
Upon seeing this, the old gentleman sighed and shook his head. Yu Sheng…probably didn’t think of the worst.
This matter really just boiled down to his granddaughter; only she knew the truth.
“You have always done things safely, and I feel relieved about that. But even the moon has both cloudy and clear days, and people also have sorrows and joys. We have asked for the best, but we can’t be greedy anymore. You have to accept it calmly, even if the truth is bad, do you understand?”
This was already a vague reminder to Father Fu, asking him to expect the worst.
The old Sir had gone through so many things and had suffered from several joys and sorrows in the world. Ye Jian’s avoidance let him know that things were not so simple, and he vaguely guessed that it was probably not a happy thing.
The living room was a bit quiet, and they could hear the birds cawing outside the French windows. After a long time, Father Fu finally whispered, “Okay, don’t worry, I know what I should do.”
