Chapitre 17: Grandfather Fu stays at the Qin's residence
Grandfather Fu woke up this morning to a call from one of his granddaughters-in-law. When he saw the caller ID, a smirk formed on his lips.
When he answered the call, Fu Hee didn't let him speak up as she greeted him in a cheerful tone and went ahead to ask about his health, rambling on and off.
When Grandfather Fu couldn't handle her ramblings, he cut her off.
"Did you call to check up on me or did you call to annoy me?." Grandfather Fu asked in an annoyed tone.
Mrs. Fu Hee was taken aback by the Old man's annoyed tone, but she knew better not to piss him off further, so she smiled and spoke in a tone to placate him.
"Father, how could you talk like that? I called to know your present state of health." Mrs. Fu Hee said with a fawning smile, although the old man couldn't see it.
"Fu Hee, don't think I don't know your thoughts. You don't want me to come back to keep you in place since your husband can not do the job. My health is in perfect condition if you insist to know." Grandfather Fu said in annoyance as he ended the call.
Tut...tut...tut
"Hello! Father? Hello?!." Mrs. Fu Hee called out but received no response from his end. She glanced at the phone just to see the call had already been terminated.
"Why is he angry this morning? Does he hate my voice so much?." Mrs. Fu Hee muttered to herself with her lowered gaze on the phone. But when she looked up, she saw her husband staring intently at her.
She was almost scared out of her wits. She didn't hear any footsteps or any sound to indicate someone was approaching.
"Do you want to cause my blood pressure to rise? How long have you been standing there?." Mrs. Fu Hee asked with creased brows.
"Since the time you were sweet-talking to Father." General Fu Lei replied before walking past her to sit on the couch
Fu Hee followed him immediately to sit by his side. "It is not my fault I had to act that way. Father is very difficult to talk to, that's why I had to implore such means."
"What sort of excuse is that? If you were genuine, would you have trouble conversing with father?." General Fu Lei asked, sparing her a glance before looking away.
"Why are you angry with me this morning? Your father is already angry, you want to join him as well?." Mrs. Fu Hee asked with a hurt facial expression.
"Sometimes I do not understand you. Father will be home soon, this is just a reminder to do a good job." General Fu Lei said before standing and walking away.
Mrs. Fu Hee should be panicking now, but she remained on moved with a look of indifference as her husband walked away.
She didn't seem affected by the situation at all. But even if she didn't seem affected at all, she still needed to do her job as the first daughter-in-law of Retired Major General Fu Wei Lei.
Back in the countryside where Jia Li was living with her parents, Grandfather Fu has just been discharged from the hospital and insisted on staying with the Qins. There was nothing Fu Hua and YingPei could do other than to accept that fact.
Jia Li had to clear up her grandfather's room for the old man to reside in.
Grandfather Fu stayed with the Qins for two days before agreeing to leave with his grandsons.
But before he left for the city, his grandsons would visit him every afternoon and leave in the evening.
The first noon the Fu brothers came to visit their grandfather at the Qin's house, they found the place to be very small and uncomfortable compared to the mansion they were living in.
Because Jia Li spends the whole day with Grandfather Fu, the old man isn't lonely.
Jia Li played games with him and told him stories to keep him company. Then in the evening, he would take walks with his grandsons.
Mrs. Qin worked night shifts, while Mr. Qin went for work at a construction site, so basically, Jia Li spends most of the time with the Old man.
The second afternoon the Qin brothers came to visit before they traveled back, Fu Hua refused to eat lunch there, but YingPei accepted the food Jia Li served him.
Grandfather Fu glanced at him but continued to eat without saying anything. After a few spoons, he encouraged YingPei to eat to his satisfaction.
Fu Hua knew Grandfather Fu was not happy with me, but he didn't want to eat anything because he was uncomfortable and wanted to go back to the city soon.
"Miss Jia Li, please get me something to drink." Fu Hua turned to Jia Li to ask.
"Okay, I'll be right back." Jia Li said with a polite smile as she went into the kitchen and returned with a bottle of fresh apple juice.
She cleaned the cap before passing the drink to him.
"Thank you!." Fu Hua said as he took the drink from her. He took out a handkerchief from his pocket and wiped the cap before removing it.
Jia Li was amazed at how thorough he was.
"Brother, you should try this, it's nice." YingPei who has been eating quietly all these while said to Fu Hua while pointing at the side dishes on the table.
"I'm not interested." Fu Hua replied before drinking from the bottle of fruit drink.
When he finished the fruit juice, he went to the small living room to sit and wait for them.
Jia Li joined Grandfather Fu and YingPei at the dining table to have her lunch.
A 'ding' sound came from Fu Hua's phone, and he checked out. It was a text from his girlfriend asking when he would be back.
Fu Hua read the text but didn't reply, because he wanted to surprise her the next day.
Yes, he was going back to the city the next morning, so he wanted to surprise her.
