Tripod wedding

Chapter 216 Uninvited Guest ([-])
The two sat quietly for a while, and after Fujii Iori had tea and pastries, Xu Qingru began to get down to business.

"I came to the Fu family not long ago, so I don't know much about the relationship between Ms. Fujii and the Fu family. Unfortunately, the two old people are away from home. I don't know what is the business of Ms. Fujii's visit today?"

Xu Qingru spoke as slowly as possible, seeing that Fujii Iori didn't show any doubts on her face, she knew that she basically understood.

Fujii Iori thought for a while and asked, "Are you Mr. Fu Jinsong's... grandson's wife?"

Xu Qingru nodded.

"My great grandfather is Aoki Tetsuya. He has met Mr. Fu Jinsong's family...sorry, I have met." Fujii Iori organized his words carefully, "like many years ago. My grandfather...he did Had some... not so good things, like cultural relics, antiques... When he was about to die, he said... he wanted to return those things to the Fu family, I want to come first... um... communicate with Fu."

Fujii and Iori expressed her intentions in a rough manner. Xu Qingru admired her a little. Although her accent was not pure, she was trying her best to express it in Chinese, which was probably expressing her politeness and sincerity.

Xu Qingru heard what she meant, that the Aoki family wanted to return the cultural relics they took away back then, but since they wanted to return it, shouldn't they contact the Chinese cultural relics department and go through official channels?How can you say that you want to "return it to the Fu family"?Those cultural relics, recorded in the "Supplementary Notes", are not the private property of the Fu family.

Xu Qingru thought about it, and in order to determine what was going on, she switched to English to communicate with her: "I'm a bit confused. Why not return those cultural relics to the Chinese government?"

Seeing that Xu Qingru took the initiative to communicate with her in English, Fujii Iori breathed a sigh of relief, and also replied in English: "Our Aoki family means to return it to China, but we hope that people from the Fu family can take over."

Now Xu Qingru understood that the Aoki family wanted to hold an event similar to a "return ceremony" and let people from the Fu family come forward to participate.

She showed an emotionless smile, then switched back to Chinese and said: "This matter needs to be discussed in the long run. After telling Mr. Fu Jinsong, he will make the decision." After thinking about it, she added an English sentence: "must be considered at leisure."

Fujii Iori understood: "Okay. May I ask Mr. Fu... when will you be back?"

Xu Qingru smiled: "I don't know yet, does Ms. Fujii want to wait for him here?"

Fujii Iori thought for a while and said, "I...have other things...to do, I live in...Cuihu Hotel, may I ask...when Mr. Fu comes back, you can...um...text me ?”

After speaking, she took out a business card from her handbag and presented it with both hands: "This is my card."

Xu Qingru took her business card and nodded: "Okay, see you some other day."

Fujii Iori stood up happily, and bowed respectfully again: "ありがとございます. (Thank you)"

Xu Qingru asked Aunt Wang to send Fujii Iori out, and stood there, looking at her back as she went away. It is not yet clear whether she came for the purpose of coming, but to communicate with the Fu family about the return of cultural relics from the Aoki family.

"Clear as ah."

Not long after Fujii Iori left, Fu Jinsong walked in with his wife.

Xu Qingru came back to her senses: "Grandpa, grandma, the great-granddaughter of the Aoki family, Fujii Iori, came here just now."

Fu Jinsong walked into the living room with his hands behind his back, and when he got close to Xu Qingru, he said in a low voice, "Come to the study to talk about it."
