The imperial capital changed overnight. Fu Yuheng's funeral was held in a low-key manner. After all, he was a descendant of the Fu family. After the funeral, he was buried in the Fu family cemetery.
At the same time, the Fu family announced that Mr. Fu's second son, Fu Han, who had always liked raising flowers and walking birds, would succeed him as the head of the Fu family.
This surprised many people. Fu Yuxiu didn't sit in that seat.
However, it is true that the Dark Palace is booming now, and Fu Yuxiu, the dignified master of the Dark Palace, does not like the position of the head of the Fu family.
Fu Han was just there to clean up Fu Yuheng's mess. He had been busy just a few days after taking office.
To appease the emotions of the heads of each family, and reorganize the current power territory of the Fu family.
One thing after another, everything is challenging Fu Han's ability.
But after all, he grew up in the Fu family, and his abilities and knowledge were unparalleled, so he could naturally cope with such a situation.
At the same time, the situation in the entire Fu Manor also changed.
Wen Li and Fu Yuxiu stood side by side by the lake. Looking around, they saw the land that was burned to black.
It is no longer the same as it used to be in summer, and the two-story building where they lived some time ago has been stained and blackened by smoke.
It has to be said that the people of the Fu family put out the fire very quickly. The fire first started burning in several greenhouses, together with the explosion.
However, the blackened two-story building and the Crystal Palace were saved.
"You don't need to find someone to restore it, this house can still be saved." Wen Li looked at the man beside him.
No matter how hard-hearted a person is, there is still a warm place in his heart.
He would choose to live here for a period of time even on the anniversary of Nan Jinxiu's death in the past few years, and he was not completely emotionless.
The man beside him shook his head, "No, even if it recovers, it will no longer be the same house as before. Besides, the most important thing is never this house, or these flowers?"
When their family was able to live here for such a long time, they did have many warm memories.
But after Fu Yuan's death, this place was just a place to trap Nan Jinxiu and imprison Fu Yuxiu.
"In fact, you don't have to burn this place down at all." Wen Li suddenly said.
Even if Fu Zhining really used this place as a threat, she would not let Fu Yuheng go. It was just a matter of time.
The man raised his hand and gently rubbed her nose with his fingertips, smiling brightly.
"I said, I will be your support, not someone who holds you back, even if I am a slight threat to you."
He will be her backing to move forward unscrupulously, instead of being a burden.
That's all.
This little guy had a soft mouth and a soft heart. If he had shown the slightest bit of reluctance, she would have stopped firing her gun.
But this is the first time she has shown such an expression in such a long time.
"Then you won't cultivate anymore?" Wen Li glanced at the other side and murmured, "Then the Crystal Palace was given to me."
"That thing will move."
Wen Li raised his eyebrows, "Where to move?"
Fu Yuxiu hugged her and took two steps forward. Their boots made a squeaking sound on the scorched earth.
"Move to our home..."
Many things have passed. It is better to let them go. People who are always trapped in the past have no chance to see the light.
Rows of servants came over the bridge, carrying many organizing tools in their hands.
Seeing Wen Li and Fu Yuxiu standing by the lake, the leading servant stepped forward and said, "Second Young Master, we came here to sort things out after our mistress's orders."
The mistress among these people is naturally Gu Shulan.
Now that Fu Han has become the head of the Fu family, Gu Shulan has naturally succeeded in taking the position of the mistress of the family.
In the past, when Fu Dingfeng was in power, Gu Shulan took care of many things in the manor, and she did a very good job.
Nowadays, she is quite mistress-like.
"Second Young Master, the manor has just welcomed a guest. The mistress has invited Mrs. Shen to come over as a guest. The mistress means that Miss Wen Li and you have settled down now, so why not come over and get to know each other."
Fu Yuxiu and Wen Li returned to the manor in the morning, which everyone knew.
After what happened that night, no one in the entire Fu Manor dared to look down on Fu Yuxiu or Wen Li beside him.
"Mrs. Shen?" Wen Li raised an eyebrow.
The servant hurriedly explained, "She is the mother of General Shen Qingyi."
Now that the dust has settled, the four children of the Fu family, Fu Yuheng, are dead, and Fu Zhining has become crazy.
Both Mrs. Fu and Mrs. Fu suffered a stroke and are now lying in bed unable to move.
The Fu family needs a happy event to make it lively and lively, to resolve the hostility of half a month ago.
In addition, Fu Zhiqing has now arrived at Shen Qingyi's side, and there are also rumors about the Fourth Miss of the Fu family and General Shen.
In order to take into account the face of both families, this matter must always be put on the agenda.
Gu Shulan had been busy with things in the manor for half a month, and finally she had some sort of trouble and was able to take a break and have a good chat about this matter.
"But the mistress also said that if Miss Wen Li is too busy, she doesn't need to take care of them." The servant added immediately.
The latter nodded, "Okay, I'll be there right away."
This was a straightforward promise, but it made the servant opposite him stunned.
"Are you still concerned about Zhiqing's affairs?" Fu Yuxiu raised his eyebrows.
Wen Li shook his head, "It's not just about Fu Zhiqing."
She still remembers the result of the original investigation. The Fu family's exhibition hall used for Hua Yan's first painting exhibition in the imperial capital was signed by Fu Dingfeng.
None of this is a coincidence, there is still something wrong with it after all.
As the two of them walked to the main building together, Wen Li made a curious sound.
"You seem to have special feelings for them?"
This is about Fu Han and Gu Shulan.
"A person who does not control power can naturally get along well with many people. I started learning writing from my second uncle when I was four years old. He taught me the first brush calligraphy."
At that time, the two brothers Fu Han and Fu Yuan had a very good relationship, and Fu Han was the only person in the entire Fu family who recognized the existence of Nan Jinxiu.
Furthermore, Nan Jinxiu and Gu Shulan were young friends and had a deep relationship.
When Nan Jinxiu stayed in the manor, she only had Gu Shulan as a good friend, and the two often talked together.
After Fu Yuan died, Nan Jinxiu went crazy, and it was Gu Shulan who took care of Fu Yuxiu until he left the Fu family.
After hearing this, Wen Li had the answer in his mind. This is why Fu Dingfeng often moves out Fu Han to suppress Fu Yuxiu. In the entire Fu family, he is the only one who listens to Fu Han's words.
It just so happened that Fu Han had something to do with Fu Yuxiu. He arranged for an assistant to come over and just knelt down and knelt down to invite him away.
The servant respectfully brought Wen Li into the living room.
The bloodstains have been cleaned away, but the place is still as gorgeous and majestic as ever, enough to captivate people's eyes.
Gu Shulan and Tang Rong were already chatting, and exquisite tea sets and snacks were placed on the low table.
The two ladies are elegant and elegant, exuding exquisiteness from head to toe.
"Wen Li." Gu Shulan saw Wen Li being the first to say hello.
Tang Rong followed her gaze and saw the little girl coming from the door.
She wore a simple apricot-colored casual suit and was well-dressed. Her appearance was indeed as rumored, and she stood out.
"We just talked about you." Gu Shulan said and introduced to Tang Rong, "This is Yu Xiu's fiancée and the eldest lady of the Li family, Wen Li. This is General Shen's mother, Mrs. Shen."
The two nodded slightly and said hello.
Tang Rong's eyes were full of admiration, "There have been rumors in the imperial capital for a long time that Master Fu's second young master's fiancée is the most beautiful woman in the country. I still thought about how beautiful she would be, but now it seems that my knowledge is shallow."
Gu Shulan smiled, reached out and held Wen Li's fingertips and led her to sit next to him.
"You have also met our Yu Xiu. His appearance is already outstanding, and only a girl like Wen Li can match her."
Tang Rong smiled and nodded. She had met Fu Yuxiu once at a dinner party years ago.
It can be described as a startling glimpse.
It is indeed stunning enough. From this point of view, the appearance of the two people is extremely suitable.
"Now that the matter between Wen Li and Yu Xiu has been settled, she is equivalent to Zhiqing's sister-in-law. If we listen more to young people's ideas, we won't be at a loss here."
Wen Li also understood what Gu Shulan meant. He wanted her to accompany Tang Rong to discuss the marriage between Shen Qingyi and Fu Zhiqing.
"That's it." Tang Rong smiled happily, "What we men want to do is to listen to the woman's wishes. Whatever you say, then we will do it."
Gu Shulan nodded, "Yes, I watched Zhiqing grow up, and she is almost my biological daughter. Naturally, she also wants to be more famous. Moreover, she has been following General Shen for so many days. If she doesn't get married again, , I’m afraid the rumors outside are about to start.”
Tang Rong's face changed slightly, and she nodded with a smile, "Qingyi said at the time that he asked the old man for permission to carry it, but I think that's inappropriate. Why don't we start with the wedding date and betrothal gift? What do you think?"
The servant here brought over two plates of exquisite snacks, cookies baked with cranberries, the sweetness was just right.
This snack is quite popular with Wen Li.
"But it's not easy for me to draw conclusions without seeing the person involved. Why don't you ask Mrs. Shen to tell General Shen to let Zhiqing come back and stay so that we can discuss and listen to the child's opinions." Gu Shulan requested.
Tang Rong looked at Gu Shulan's expression and said, "Qingyi took Zhiqing into the mountains two days ago, and I couldn't contact him for a while."
She still remembers how shocking the scars on Fu Zhiqing's body were.
The Fu family is almost like a devil's cave to the child. Let's not say whether it is related to Gu Shulan or not.
She also had to go back and ask Fu Zhiqing what he meant and see if she was willing to come back.
You can't say yes to someone else's little girl.
Thinking of this, Tang Rong sighed. No wonder everyone said that the relationship between mother-in-law and daughter-in-law was difficult, but she was thinking about it again and again before it even started.
Tang Rong, who was immersed in her own thoughts, ignored the look on Gu Shulan's face.
"According to the rules, the bride and groom cannot meet each other before the wedding. Our family is not an ordinary family. There are countless pairs of eyes outside looking at us. We cannot break the rules."
At this point, Gu Shulan looked at Wen Li, "Wen Li, are you right?"
Wen Li, who was eating biscuits with his head down, blinked and looked up at the two women whose eyes fell on him.
"If it's about wedding preparations, you don't need to see the person all the time. Just make an appointment and ask."
Tang Rong nodded in agreement, "Yes, they are both in the imperial capital, and they are not that far away. You can meet up anytime you want. Besides, those two children also need to be well cultivated and develop a relationship. My son He has a stubborn temper. If Zhiqing is not allowed to get along with him more, if Zhiqing regrets the marriage later, I will have no place to cry."
Gu Shulan was displeased. The Shen family hadn't married her yet, and they already didn't want her to see anyone.
If you marry her off, how can you get it
However, it was the old man who sat down and let Shen Qingyi take him away in the first place, but now she can't say anything.
"If that's the case, then we've finalized it. I'll have to bring Zhiqing over at some point."
Tang Rong said, taking her bag and getting up. If the marriage was decided, Shen Qingyi would have to take Fu Zhiqing back to Fu's house.
With her son here, it is estimated that people will not be detained in the Fu family so easily.
After Tang Rong left, Gu Shulan felt helpless and spread out all the wedding company information she had prepared.
"Wen Li, you don't even help me."
There was a hint of complaint in these words.
Wen Li raised his hand and sipped the black tea, "Is the focus of your conversation about the marriage or about Fu Zhiqing's ownership?"
Gu Shulan was stunned when she heard this, and then explained, "Maybe I'm a little conservative in my bones, but Zhiqing is also the fourth young lady of the Fu family. If she wants to get married, she must leave the Fu family manor openly."
If he followed Shen Qing away so clearly, it would be inevitable that the truth would be true.
"So it's enough for her to come back and stay before she gets married?" Wen Li raised his eyebrows.
"No, I still want Zhiqing to come back and live."
This time I didn’t hide it.
"I don't have children. I watched Zhiqing grow up. She is really just like my own daughter. I also want to manage this child's marriage properly without leaving any regrets."
These words are full of maternal glory, and they are indeed sincere.
Wen Li looked at her for a long time and said, "If you really want her to come back, you can just have her tied up."
Gu Shulan stared at her with a smile, "You are really like Yu Xiu. Getting along with other people is so simple."
Wen Li stood up and left, "This is the most useful method. It is much more effective than talking nonsense. Don't forget that you are the mistress of the Fu family now."
Since the death of Fu Yuan's wife, the position of the Fu family's matron has been vacant for more than twenty years.
Gu Shulan now sits in this position and has a certain status.
After Wen Li left, the servant came forward to persuade him.
"I think Miss Wen Li is right."
Just ask someone to bring the Fourth Miss back directly. There is no need to discuss too much with the Shen family.
"Are you confused? What kind of place is the Shen family? Can people be allowed to be arrogant?" Gu Shulan said coldly.
I still have to have a good chat with Zhiqing.
There is only one update today, sorry.
