Chapter 1334 Don’t care about your deeds
Grandpa Liang nodded, "Alright, I'll treat you on the seventh day of the new year! Linghua is also coming over for the New Year, so the cousins can chat more!"
One sentence instantly made Old Master Xu's eyes redden: "You pretty boy, back then you used your looks to swindle people! Your grandson inherited your fine tradition, he also has a pretty face, and he's the best at sweet-talking people, he even tricked such a good girl like Linghua!"
Old Master Liang was displeased upon hearing this. "A face like jade and a dignified appearance prove that we are good-looking! How can you call us pretty boys? As for you, so what if you married a beautiful wife? Your son is only slightly better looking than you! Xu Feng is indeed good-looking, but in terms of appearance, he is indeed a little less handsome than our Liang Cheng! There's nothing we can do, we inherited our looks, so I'm better looking than you!"
Grandpa Xu immediately puffed up his cheeks in anger, "Shameless bastard, what's there to brag about? It's New Year's, and my granddaughter-in-law is coming to visit. She's so beautiful!"
Grandpa Liang disagreed and continued to rebuke Grandpa Xu, "Looks are one thing, but when it comes to marriage, we should choose a virtuous wife. In a family like ours, we don't ask for a noble or wealthy spouse, we just ask that she be reliable and not a burden!"
Grandpa Fu nodded, and Xu's granddaughter-in-law was also very curious, "Yes, Old Xu, what's the situation with your future granddaughter-in-law?"
Grandpa Xu replied, "It was Xu Feng's aunt who introduced her. She's a university graduate who stayed on as a teacher! She teaches history. I met her; she's a quiet and cultured young woman, knowledgeable about both ancient and modern times! Her parents are researchers, and they have impeccable backgrounds!"
There were actually better options at the time, but after meeting several, Xu Feng finally chose Yang Mei.
It wasn't just because of her appearance, but also because of her profession, and even more so because of her clean background and the fact that she didn't have any family members who would hold her back.
This was inspired by Liu Yibang and Liang Cheng. Since his family background ensured that he wouldn't be taken credit for his achievements and would be treated fairly, he only needed to do his job well and produce political results to be promoted.
In that case, there is no need to spend more energy dealing with the complex interpersonal relationships brought about by the marriage.
While marriage alliances can offer more assistance, they also bring many troubles. If trouble arises and one is implicated, all the effort will be in vain.
Grandpa Fu congratulated her, saying, "That's wonderful! A girl from such a family is well-educated and reasonable! As a history teacher, she is knowledgeable about the past and present, and her conduct must be very appropriate."
Grandpa Liang wholeheartedly agreed, "A girl who can catch Old Xu's eye must be exceptional! After all, he's practically a fortune teller!"
Grandpa Xu chuckled, "You know what, although I haven't calculated it carefully, I can tell from his face that he's a lucky person!"
"If we're talking about a lucky face, I don't agree with anyone else. I think Meilan has a good face!" Old Master Liang exclaimed. "Her face is like a silver plate, and her eyes are radiant. Her appearance is already top-notch! The key is that she has a good temperament and is very insightful! What I like most is that she has a broad mind and a long-term vision! Old Fu, you really hit the jackpot."
Grandpa Liang nodded in agreement, "Your Fu Chen has a good eye. I've known since he was a kid that although he's a quiet type, he's very shrewd."
Liu Meilan used to fish on Sifang Island and made a lot of money, but there were countless other wealthy families who made money in business, so she wasn't particularly noticeable.
But ever since Liu Meilan started donating the money she earned from fishing to the Sifang Island Research Institute and Northwest University every year, she has come under the scrutiny of higher authorities.
Initially, the annual donation was 50 million, but now it has increased to 100 million.
If someone were to donate for only one year, it might be for the sake of leaving a name, or there might be other motives. But now they've been donating for five consecutive years.
As the saying goes, judge by actions, not intentions; no one is perfect when it comes to intentions.
Regardless of Liu Meilan's motives, her persistence in donating to scientific and military research and development demonstrates her to be an entrepreneur and a true successor to socialism.
After finding so much gold, it was handed over to the state. She then traded it repeatedly in and out of foreign financial markets, making a considerable profit. What amused and exasperated the authorities was that whenever Liu Meilan needed funds for research or sponsored scientific projects, and the Sifangdao Investment Company couldn't provide them, she would send people abroad to profit from the stock market.
They were also studying Liu Meilan, trying to figure out why she could easily make money from the stock market. They even had people sent by them in her team, but they couldn't figure it out.
When Grandpa Fu heard his granddaughter-in-law being praised, he straightened his back and said, "She's still young and needs time to mature!"
"You're so good at being modest!" Old Master Xu rolled his eyes. "You're shameless old man who gets the benefits but still acts innocent."
If it were anyone else, Old Master Fu would definitely have retorted. He readily accepted the praise for his granddaughter-in-law.
As it was getting dark, Grandpa Fu finally saw his grandson and granddaughter-in-law arrive.
When Fu Hai and Fu Ying saw their great-grandfather in the car, they quickly got out, grabbed the old man's hand, and chattered away.
"Great-grandfather, I want to buy firecrackers!"
"Great-Grandpa, do we have any stainless steel bowls around here? Dog-frying bowls are so much fun!"
"Actually, we brought a lot, but it was confiscated at the airport!"
……
These two little guys still can't forget about setting off firecrackers to blow up the dog bowl.
Grandpa Fu laughed and said, "We don't have any stainless steel basins at home. Tomorrow, Grandpa will take you to blow up Grandpa Liang's dog basin!"
Fu Hai's eyes lit up. "So, did we steal it, or did we ask Grandpa Liang for permission?"
Fu Ying quickly said, "Mom said we can't steal things, but we can borrow it from Grandpa Liang! Anyway, the stainless steel basin won't break in an explosion; at most, it'll just get dented. Grandpa Liang is so kind; he'll definitely lend it to us!"
Fu Hai thought for a moment, "That makes sense!"
Grandpa Fu was overjoyed to hear the conversation between the two little ones.
I led them home; the house was warm and cozy with the heating on.
Liu Meilan quickly took off the child's outer clothes, leaving him only in a sweater and thin pants.
Fu Chen quickly moved his things into the room. Liu Meilan had already taken out red envelopes and given them to the four bodyguards, telling them to go home for the New Year.
Once we arrived in the capital, there were sufficient guards, so our safety was guaranteed.
Madam Fu spent an afternoon cooking with the nanny, preparing both northern and southern dishes.
Fu Weiguo and Ms. Yuan, having learned that Liu Meilan and Fu Chen were coming, finished their business outside and rushed over under the cover of night.
It is said that grandparents love their grandchildren more, and in the eyes of Fu Weiguo and Ms. Yuan, their two grandchildren are their most precious treasures.
Because they often make phone calls and video chats, the two children are not unfamiliar with their grandparents.
Ms. Yuan also frequently sent gifts to the two children, and Liu Meilan often told the children that their grandparents loved them dearly.
Therefore, Fu Ying and Fu Hai are very close to their grandparents, and they sweetly call them "Grandpa" and "Grandma".
