Chapter 313 It’s too early to call them in-laws
The next day, Qi Lianxin went to the apartment again.
Shang Wuyou greeted her and took Qiao Doudou out to play, and returned only at dinner time.
Fu Tanxiu had a dinner party that night and did not go back.
After dinner, Qi Lianxin felt bored and left.
The next day, Shang Wuyou went straight back to Banshan Manor after get off work.
Qiao Doudou and Sister Zeng were taken back to the manor by Lin Qi early in the morning.
During dinner, Fu Tanxiu also came over.
Qi Lianxin waited in the apartment for a long time. The servant prepared a meal for her. She sat alone in the huge dining room without any appetite.
Her son had ignored her for the past two days, so she couldn't bring herself to call Fu Tanxiu. She called the servants and asked, "Where is the young master going?"
The servant said, "Today is Friday. Mr. Fu and Miss Shang, the young master has returned to the manor."
Qi Lianxin: "What is the manor?"
"The old house of the Shang family. Miss Shang and her family all live there. Everyone has their own villa."
"Do they go back often?"
"Yeah, I go back every weekend, and sometimes even on weekdays."
Qi Lianxin frowned.
What’s the difference between this and a live-in son-in-law?
Logically, Qiao Bei is with her son, so she should accommodate her son and go to live in Longcheng.
But now the situation is reversed.
Let his son run to Xuancheng to live with Qiao Bei.
Now it's even worse. He lives in Qiao Bei's mother's house half of the time.
What's going on?
Qi Lianxin had no mood to eat. She was so angry that she looked unhappy when she left.
I went back to the hotel and called Fu Song.
Fu Song felt uncomfortable when he learned that Fu Tanxiu lived in the merchant house most of the time.
"Husband, what do you say we should do? What's the difference between our Tan Xiu and a live-in son-in-law now? Seriously, Shang Jia already has so many sons, and he's still trying to snatch them from us? That's too much!"
Fu Song thought for a while and said, "Wait, I'll go over and we'll go to the merchant store."
Qi Lianxin thought this was a good idea: "We need to let the Shang family and his wife take care of Qiao Bei. She can't be so willful and capricious. If we let her do whatever she wants, our Tan Xiu will suffer."
Fu Song pondered for a moment, hung up the phone and started booking tickets.
…
The weather has been good recently, neither too cold nor too hot.
Xu Jiaowan and Shang Yaorong got up and went downstairs to do morning exercises in the yard.
In addition to these two old people who get up early, Qiao Doudou is also an early bird.
After drinking milk, he chased Qianqian in the yard.
Shang Yaorong and his wife would occasionally stop to tease him.
The security guard at the gate came running over to say that a guest was coming.
Shang Yaorong wondered who would come to their house so early in the morning.
Xu Jiaowan asked: "What's your name?"
"My surname is Fu."
Xu Jiaowan and Shang Yaorong looked at each other.
The surname is Fu...
Could it be Fu Tanxiu’s parents?
Haha, it’s really interesting. They didn’t go looking for them, but they came to them.
Xu Jiaowan's face turned cold: "Let them in."
"Yes ma'am."
The security guard used the intercom to talk to his colleagues at the door and asked them to let him in.
Shang Yaorong carried his grandson and went into the house with Xu Jiaowan.
Fu Song and Qi Lianxin walked into the manor and were shocked when they saw the scene inside.
This manor... is astonishingly large, covering tens of thousands of square meters.
There are six large villas, all beautifully restored and each with its own unique features.
Their family is also a top wealthy family in Longcheng, but they still dare not buy such a manor.
Qi Lianxin sighed: "How rich this merchant must be!"
Fu Song was also shocked.
Xuancheng merchants are famous throughout China. Their businesses are spread all over the world, and no one knows how rich they are.
Butler Jiang Bo reminded: "Please come in, both of you."
Fu Song and Qi Lianxin came back to their senses and followed Uncle Jiang into the villa in front.
Sitting in the main seat was a couple in their sixties.
Fu Song thought that these should be the two old men from the business.
"My dear relatives, I have heard a lot about you."
Fu Song spoke first.
Shang Yaorong lowered his head and teased Qiao Doudou, making her giggle, but he did not respond to Fu Song's words.
Fu Song was embarrassed.
He and Qi Lianxin were still standing, and no one asked them to sit down.
Qi Lian thought that no matter how rich their family was, their daughter liked their son and gave birth to a grandson for them.
The Shang family and their wife should be anxious to marry their daughter to the Fu family.
After all, the merchant family was a wealthy one, and their daughter had been married and divorced, and had a child. If anyone told others about it, outsiders would laugh at them, so they were eager to marry their daughter off as soon as possible.
As for what Qiao Bei said about her parents and brother not forcing her to get married, they must have been fooling her because they didn't want to be looked down upon by her.
Thinking of this, Qi Lianxin felt more confident.
Pull Fu Song to sit on the chair.
Xu Jiaowan looked at the Fu couple calmly.
Seeing Qi Lianxin's change from being nervous at first to showing a proud look, he sat down.
A sneer appeared on her face.
"Mr. Fu, it's too early to call us in-laws."
Fu Song: “…”
He was speechless for a moment.
Qi Lianxin took over the conversation: "Your Qiao Bei followed Tan Xiu and gave birth to a child for him, so of course she is our in-law, you are right."
Only then did Fu Song's expression look a little better.
I have heard that Xu Jiaowan was an iron lady when she was young, and her ability was not inferior to Shang Yaorong.
The words just now caught him off guard, but fortunately Qi Lianxin reacted quickly and caught it, preventing him from being embarrassed.
Xu Jiaowan: "Only when we are discussing marriage can the parents of both parties be called in-laws. I haven't heard my daughter say she wants to marry your son. So, don't shout nonsense for now, we can't bear it."
Qi Lianxin's expression changed.
This woman is as annoying as Qiao Bei, no wonder they are mother and daughter.
Qi Lianxin: "They already live together, so getting married is only a matter of time."
"That's not necessarily true."
"How could that be? Qiao Bei and our Tan Xiu have already had a child and now live together. If they don't get married, outsiders will say something bad, and it will also be bad for Qiao Bei's reputation."
"I don't care whether it's good or not, as long as my daughter feels good, her happiness is the most important thing.
Speaking of children, I have to ask you a question. My daughter went through so much hardship getting pregnant and giving birth all by herself. Where were you? You are so cold and selfish. What qualifications do you have to mention children?
Fu Song frowned and said, "It was Qiao Bei who insisted on getting a divorce. She didn't tell us she was pregnant, so it's not our fault."
Qi Lianxin agreed: "Yes, we were completely unaware of it."
Xu Jiaowan: "I can't blame you. Why did my daughter want a divorce? It's because your son treated her badly and your family bullied her. She had no choice but to hide and give birth to the child quietly."
"Given how your son treated my daughter, I should have broken his legs long ago. But considering my daughter still has feelings for him and he's turned over a new leaf, we'll let it go for now."
"But you told me today that it's not your fault. How did you have the nerve to say that?"
Xu Jiaowan's voice was extremely cold and her eyes were sharp, leaving Fu Song and Qi Lian speechless.
Fu Song wanted to drink some water to relax, but he found that the merchant didn't even serve them tea, leaving them sitting there bored.
Shang Yaorong gave Xu Jiaowan an admiring look.
His wife is still the best.
Qi Lianxin took a long time to find her voice. "Madam Shang, you can't say that. Our Fu family has done Qiao Bei a favor, and we don't owe her anything. She came to our house when she was 12 years old. I treated her and my two children equally, providing her with food, education, and raising her to adulthood. But in your mouth, we have become sinners."
