Fu Yanci recovered quickly from his external injuries and was discharged from the hospital after half a month.
"Sister, where are we going?"
From the moment they got in the car, Fu Yanci held onto Jiang Zao's hand tightly. The doctor had said that this was a sign of his deep-seated insecurity, and that it was best to go along with him and coax him.
The extended car was very spacious, and Madam Fu and Fu Yinhe were also inside.
"Yanci, you can't call me sister." No one knew the bitterness in Madam Fu's heart. Her once brilliant son had been reduced to the mental capacity of a child of only a few years old.
Fu Yanci was wearing a T-shirt and overalls, with her bangs hanging down. She was already good-looking, but now she looked even more adorable.
He seemed very uneasy, shifting his body closer to Jiang Zao and gripping her hand even tighter.
But remembering that Jiang Zao had said this old lady was his mother, he asked again, "If not 'sister,' then what should I call her?"
Fu Yinhe smiled and taught him, "Call me 'wife,' you two are husband and wife."
Fu Yanci, turning into a curious child, asked: "What is a husband and wife? Is it something to eat?"
Madam Fu said, "Husband and wife are people who eat and live together every day, and spend their whole lives together. They are the two people with the closest relationship."
She firmly believes that even if her son's IQ drops, he is still the smartest child.
Sure enough, Fu Yanci quickly figured it out and smiled at Jiang Zao: "Wife!"
Jiang Zao didn't mind him calling her that; it was just a form of address and didn't affect her at all.
"Wife, where are we going?" Fu Yanci asked again.
Jiang Zao reached out and tidied his bangs. "Let's go home."
"Go home?" Fu Yanci asked nervously, staring at Jiang Zao. "Will my wife leave after we get home?"
These days in the hospital, every time Fu Yanci wakes up and can't see Jiang Zao, he gets upset.
The worst time was when they almost smashed all the medical equipment in the ward.
No matter how they tried to coax Madam Fu and Fu Yinhe, they couldn't be appeased.
In the end, Fu Yanci could only calm down after he called Jiang Zao and asked her to come back.
Jiang Zao is always very patient with children. "No, we'll live together."
She had already moved her belongings to the Fu family's house long ago, and these days, apart from being at the hospital, she spends most of her time living at the Fu family's house.
Fu Yanci's eyes were bright and clear, filled with the image of Jiang Zao and overflowing with joy.
"Yay! Time to go home and live with my wife!"
He started running around like a hyperactive child, fidgeting in the car and curious about everything, but he never let go of Jiang Zao's hand.
The Fu family ancestral home is located in the hilly area in the south of the city. It covers a large area, and it takes three to five minutes to drive from the gate to the main house. There are flowers, water and trees along the way, like a paradise.
If you didn't know better, you'd think it was a holiday home in a famous tourist attraction.
In front of the main house, servants stood in two rows, respectfully greeting the guests.
"Welcome home, Third Master."
Fu Yanci, who had just gotten off the car, was startled and grabbed Jiang Zao's hand, hiding behind her.
Jiang Zao protected him, "Yan Ci, be good, don't be afraid. They are just servants in the house, not bad people."
After calming Fu Yanci down, Jiang Zao looked at Madam Fu and said, "Mom, Yanci is still quite shy. Let's avoid such situations in the future, so as not to frighten him."
Ever since she discovered that her son was very attached to Jiang Zao, and that Jiang Zao was genuinely good to her son, Madam Fu found her words particularly helpful.
He immediately ordered, "Disperse, everyone. Try to avoid appearing in front of Yan Ci unless absolutely necessary."
The servants dispersed, and Jiang Zao led Fu Yanci into the main house.
The unfamiliar environment made Fu Yanci very uneasy, and he held Jiang Zao tightly around the waist, afraid of being left behind.
"Honey, this place isn't as fun as the hospital. Let's go back to the hospital."
Fu Yanci was half a head taller than Jiang Zao. When he bent down to hug her waist, his head was right next to her collarbone. But at this moment, he only had the intelligence of a three or four-year-old and didn't understand anything. He only knew to shake Jiang Zao and try to take her away.
Jiang Zao chuckled and patted his head. "Yan Ci, be good. This is our home. From now on, we and Mom will live here. Our room is upstairs. I also prepared a gift for you. Do you want to see it?"
Fu Yanci released her waist, grabbed her hand, and asked with bright eyes, "Our room, does that mean my wife and I will live together?"
"Mm." Jiang Zao nodded.
Fu Yanci was overjoyed and, pulling Jiang Zao along, skipped and hopped upstairs: "Let's go open our presents!"
As the two figures went upstairs, Madam Fu couldn't help but sigh deeply, feeling a bitterness in her heart that she didn't know who to tell.
"Mom." Fu Yinhe helped her sit down on the sofa and then instructed someone to pour her a cup of warm tea.
"Mom, don't worry too much. The doctor said that Yanci is not without a chance of recovery. At least Jiang Zao is willing to stay with him and comfort him, which is already a blessing in disguise," Fu Yinhe advised.
But Madam Fu was still a little worried, "What if one day Jiang Zao gets tired of coaxing Yan Ci and stops doing so? After all, she's only 22 years old. She's just graduated from university and is about to get married and live like a widow... this..."
Let alone others, even if it were Old Madam Fu herself, she wouldn't be sure she could persevere.
Soon, Madam Fu came up with a solution: "Why don't I give her more benefits? Let's start with a few hundred million, and then give her more shares. The company's annual dividends alone will be substantial. Wouldn't that make her reluctant to leave our Yanci?"
Fu Yinhe had previously regarded Jiang Zao as her daughter-in-law, so she knew her better.
"Mom, I heard that Jiang Zao wasn't very happy at Xia's company."
Jiang Zao and Xia Chuwei were the same age and both joined the Xia family's company after graduation. However, although the current Mrs. Xia is Jiang Zao's biological mother, for some reason, she is more affectionate towards Xia Chuwei, her stepdaughter. It is said that if there is a stepfather, there will be a stepmother. Jiang Zao's situation in the Xia family and the Xia family is not very good.
