Fu Ruoshi was caught off guard and the teacup in his hand fell, spilling tea all over his body, making him look extremely embarrassed.

When the commotion in the front hall just now occurred, Han Zhuojun saw that something was not right and immediately went to ask the old lady to come and seek justice.

"Grandma!" Fu Ruoshi looked at the old lady with a frustrated look on his face, "You really are still strong despite your age."

Bai Lan ignored him, put down his cane and pulled Wen Zhixia back, "Girl, are you relieved?"

Everyone present was shocked.

"Grandma..." Wen Zhixia grabbed her cane, "Don't get yourself hurt by being angry!"

She kicked Fu Ruoshi's bench and said, "We were just joking. He didn't bully me, and I didn't abandon him."

"Ah, yes, yes." Fu Ruoshi frowned and wiped the tea stains on his body impatiently, "We are fine."

When these words were spoken, some people were happy while others were sad.

The old lady was happy, but of course Song Ailing and Xu Hui were worried.

"What's going on?" Bai Lan asked suspiciously, "My daughter, did Ruo Shi do anything to offend you? Grandma will make the decision for you. Don't be afraid.

At this moment, Song Ailing's face looked extremely ugly.

She had secretly said something bad about Wen Zhixia before, but the old lady didn't react at the time, so she thought she didn't like Wen Zhixia either.

Why the sudden change of attitude?

Song Ailing glanced at Fu Ruoshi.

He was still polishing his haute couture shirt, looking unhappy.

Wen Zhixia helped Bai Lan to sit down at the main seat. Bai Lan took a sip of tea and rested for a while. Then he said, "Ailing, what's going on?"

"Ah?" Song Ailing said, trying to calm things down. "Just chatting. Xiaoxia and Ruoshi have been married for so long, they shouldn't have a child."

"They're in their early twenties, the perfect time to venture out and make their own way," Bai Lan said with a straight face. "Why are you so anxious to have grandchildren? Do you think everyone else has as much free time as you?"

She knew that it was probably Song Ailing who was gossiping behind her back, sowing discord between the couple and endangering family unity.

"Mom?" Song Ailing's face froze after being scolded in public. "I'm also thinking about our Fu family..."

Bai Lan sneered, "You know who you are thinking about."

......Song Ailing shut up completely.

Bai Lan took Wen Zhixia's hand again and said, "My daughter, my hands and feet may not be very agile, but my eyes are not blurry. You are simple-minded and come from a family of scholars. I have read the papers you published in magazines and heard about your parents' stories. Your family saves lives and heals the wounded, and you don't seek fame or fortune. Of course, you don't understand those intrigues."

As she spoke, she looked at everyone and said, "It's a blessing for our family that she's willing to marry into our family. Don't be ungrateful for what you have. If any of you bully her secretly, I'll be dead."

"Grandma..." Wen Zhixia wanted to cry after hearing this, "Please don't say that."

Besides being touched, Wen Zhixia was also a little surprised. Firstly, she didn't expect Bai Lan to protect her so much, and secondly, she actually knew her so well.

"Ruoshi, did you hear that?" The old lady glared at Fu Ruoshi, "Your ragged clothes are more valuable than your wife?"

"I heard it, I heard it." Fu Ruoshi's tone was perfunctory.

He stood up, looked at everyone present, and said, "Let me be clear: we have no plans to divorce. Just listen to the rumors."

He looked at Song Ailing, who was hesitant to speak, and said, "I haven't had enough fun yet. Let's talk after I have had enough fun."

Everyone present looked at each other in confusion. They didn't understand what Fu Ruoshi meant by "not having enough fun", and they were afraid of angering the old lady, so they didn't dare to ask any further questions.

Only Wen Zhixia's expression darkened.

She knew what he meant.

No matter how he plays outside, she will not interfere, so divorce or not has little impact on him.

OK, got it. Wen Zhixia thought to herself, could we not repeat some sad words over and over again?

"What are you talking about?" Bai Lan was also dissatisfied. "What do you mean you haven't had enough fun? Then what do you think of Xiao Xia?"

Fu Ruoshi said in a cold tone: "Become the ancestor."

The old man wanted to hit him again, but was stopped by Wen Zhixia.

"Grandma," Wen Zhixia suppressed her sadness, "Ruoshi said he didn't have enough fun in the business world, but that's not what he meant. Don't get me wrong."

Fu Ruoshi glanced at her and said nothing.

Bai Lan shook her head. "My daughter, you are too kind, but you can't be like this to men. Grandma will teach you later."

"Alright, alright," Song Ailing tried to smooth things over. "It's a nice day, let's not be unhappy. The food is ready, let's go to the restaurant and eat."

......

The Fu family house is very big, and it takes more than ten minutes to walk from the front hall to the dining room.

Wen Zhixia supported Bai Lan and walked behind the crowd.

Fu Ruoshi answered a conference call and followed them while listening.

Bai Lan took Wen Zhixia's hand and turned to Fu Ruoshi and said, "Hey. Why don't you buy Xiaoxia some nice jewelry? Look at her neck and hands, they're empty. Grandson, is your company closed down? Are you out of money?"

"Why do I have no money?" Fu Ruoshi was dissatisfied. "I bought it but she didn't want it, and she even splashed soup on my face."

"It must be something you bought that doesn't look good!" Bai Lan had no intention of helping him. "Can't you give her the money and let her buy it herself?"

"Didn't I give you money?" Fu Ruoshi looked at Wen Zhixia, "Wen Zhixia, turn around and look at me and confront me face to face."

The back of Wen Zhixia's head was filled with the words "Do you think I want to care about you?"

The old lady couldn't bear it anymore, "Grandson, if you dare to say something mean to my daughter again, I will ask your father to take the belt and wait for you at the ancestral hall."

When Fu Ruoshi heard that he would be punished according to the family rules, he became timid.

I was beaten in the front hall just now, so I can’t score twice, otherwise it would be too embarrassing.

But he still said without hesitation, "Grandma, the generations are wrong. If she were your daughter, I would have to call her aunt."

......

Along the way, Bai Lan tried to beat this grandson several times, but was stopped by Wen Zhixia.

"Xiao Xia," Bai Lan sighed distressedly when he saw how sensible she was. "I injured my waist a while ago and didn't have time to see you. Please come and accompany me more often in the future, okay?"

"Yes." Wen Zhixia held the old man's hand, suppressing the sadness in her heart and said, "I will definitely come."

After passing through the flower-filled courtyard, everyone came to the restaurant and sat down.

While Wen Zhixia was waiting for a seat, Fu Ruoshi came over.

He held up a bottle of Scotch liquor and said, "Just now in the front hall, how did those old idiots bully you? Tell me, and I'll help you get revenge."

Wen Zhixia remained unmoved. "If you want to drink, you don't have to use me as a shield."

"I didn't." Fu Ruoshi smiled disapprovingly, "Besides, if they were targeting you, wouldn't you run away? Wouldn't you call me and ask me to come over?"

He said that only someone as shameless as him could do such a thing.

Wen Zhixia is thin-skinned and independent at a young age. She would rather be beaten than run away, and she would never show weakness to a man.

"Where can I run to?" Wen Zhixia looked at him and said, "This is your home. Will it be of any use if I run?"

"Yes." Fu Ruoshi pulled the corner of his lips, "Running into my arms is very useful."

Wen Zhixia glared at him and ignored his nonsense.

Fu Ruoshi felt uncomfortable and gave up teasing Wen Zhixia. He walked to the round table and poured wine for the uncles.

Wen Zhixia watched him add two kinds of liquor into the pot while Xu's father was not paying attention, and then he made Xu's father laugh heartily with just two words, and drank half a cup of it.

This meal allowed Wen Zhixia to further witness Fu Ruoshi's powerful ability to persuade people to drink.

He used both coaxing and deceiving methods to get a table of seasoned seniors drunk, and even his father Fu Keming was not spared, and the old man ran away in the middle of the meal.

After lunch, Fu Ruoshi sent away a few uncles and aunts who were drunk, and also sent away Song Ailing.

Bai Lan also drank some wine at noon. Wen Zhixia sent her back to her room and watched her fall asleep.

When everything was packed up, it was already evening.
