Married at First
Chapter 5271 to 5280
Now she understood her grandmother’s anxiety when she was alive. The children were all grown up, but they were all still single. If only
her grandmother were still here.
While Sonny Brown was being asked by his aunt about his impression of Fu Newman, the Fu family grandfather and granddaughter had finally returned to Dongcheng after a several-hour flight.
The Fu family’s driver was waiting for them at the airport. After the grandfather and granddaughter arrived, the driver picked them up. Chairman Fu said, “Take me back to the company first.”
“Then take Miss home.”
“Newman, there’s a lot of stuff, Grandpa should go back to the company first, you go home so your mother won’t worry.”
Fu Newman said, “Just call my mother, I’ll go back to the company with Grandpa.”
She was a little tired after a several-hour flight, and her grandfather was older, he would be even more tired.
She should be the one going back to the company so that Grandpa could go home and rest.
“Grandpa, I’ll go back to the company. You can go home and rest for half a day. There’s nothing important at the company, I can go back myself. I don’t have any business dinners tonight, let’s eat at home.”
“It’s settled then,”
Fu Newman said firmly.
Seeing his granddaughter’s insistence, Chairman Fu agreed to her arrangement, letting her go back to the company first while he went home to rest for half a day. He
was indeed a little tired.
Getting old. Her physical strength and energy were not what they used to be.
Fortunately, Newman had grown up and, under his tutelage, could now handle things independently. Most people in the company had come to trust her, except for a few old troublemakers who still had many complaints about her.
He was still around, and those old troublemakers were all people he had promoted and were still loyal to him.
In fact, the people in the Fu Group also knew that regardless of whether Newman was capable or not, she was the successor of the Fu Group because she was Chairman Fu’s only descendant.
It wouldn’t be so easy for those relatives of the Fu family to covet the Fu Group. If Newman were still young and incompetent, those relatives’ schemes might actually succeed.
But Newman was very outstanding, and she was almost thirty years old. She was not a naive young girl who knew nothing, and she had deeply inherited Chairman Fu’s true teachings.
In a few more years, she would be even more capable.
Those relatives, apart from scheming about Newman’s marriage, would have no chance of getting their hands on the Fu Group.
The driver took Newman back to the company before taking Chairman Fu home.
The Fu family owns a large estate, a home Mr. Fu built for his wife and children at great expense in his youth. He envisioned his son marrying and having many children, making the estate lively.
However, his wife passed away first, followed by his son. Now, only the grandfather, grandson, and daughter live in the estate, though a large number of workers are provided with food and lodging; otherwise, the estate would be very quiet.
Mrs. Fu knew her father-in-law and daughter were returning today. She assumed they would go home first and had instructed the kitchen to prepare a lavish lunch. Her brothers, sistersin-law, and other relatives were also present.
She thought it would be lively with everyone together since her daughter was back.
After lunch, she could play cards with them.
Hearing a car outside, Mrs. Fu immediately got up and went outside, saying, “A-Ning is back.”
Her brothers, sisters-in-law, and other relatives followed.
The car stopped in front of the main house.
Mrs. Fu smiled broadly, waiting for her daughter to get out, but only her father-in-law did.”Dad, where’s A-Ning?” Mrs. Fu asked .
“Wasn’t she on a business trip with you?”
Mr. Fu replied gently, “Newman went back to the company first. I’m old, and after sitting on a plane for several hours, I’m too tired. Newman told me to go home and rest.”
He glanced at the people around his daughter-in-law and said politely, “You’re all here.”
“Uncle Fu,”
Uncle Fu and the others quickly greeted Mr. Fu.
Mr. Fu nodded.
The driver and bodyguards unloaded the luggage from the car.
Seeing the two large suitcases, Mrs. Fu asked her father-in-law, “Dad, you and Newman only took two small suitcases when you left. Why did you bring back two such big suitcases?”
Mr. Fu had his bodyguard pull the suitcases into the house, and as he walked in, he replied, “They were given to us by the matriarch of the York family. She and Newman hit it off immediately, and knowing we were coming back today, she gave us many gifts to bring back.”
“Too lazy to use express delivery, so I bought two more suitcases, packed them up, and checked them in. We arrived, and the things arrived too.”
Mrs. Fu stepped forward to help her father-in-law, but Mr. Fu said, “I can walk by myself.”
He wasn’t old enough to need help walking. So
Mrs. Fu didn’t help her father-in-law and followed him.
“Is there something very important to do at the company? This should be lunchtime. Newman didn’t come back for dinner first. I told the kitchen to prepare dishes that you and Newman both like to eat.”
Mrs. Fu was quite displeased that her daughter went back to the company first instead of home after returning from her business trip.
She had been away for three days; shouldn’t she have rested properly upon returning?
And it was only for half a day.
“A-Ning will take care of her affairs.” “If Chairman Fu said calmly
,” Mrs. Fu said. Mrs. Fu remained silent.
She knew her father-in-law didn’t like her asking about company matters.
She wasn’t good at business, and couldn’t help with company affairs, but she had so many nieces and nephews—all cousins of Aning, and very close by blood.
Getting them jobs at the Fu Group would help Aning.
She had mentioned it to her daughter several times, but her daughter had refused.
Mrs. Fu didn’t dare tell her father-in-law; she was still quite afraid of him. Even though he treated her gently, the old man had a long-standing reputation for strictness, and while he considered himself gentle, Mrs. Fu perceived him as very harsh.
“If Aning had a sibling, she wouldn’t have to suffer from not being able to rest after business trips,”
Mrs. Fu sighed, her words filled with concern for her daughter.
Actually, she hoped her nieces and nephews could get jobs at the Fu Group.
Her family’s company wasn’t doing well; if it weren’t for the orders from the Fu Group, it might have gone bankrupt.
If her nieces and nephews could work for the Fu Group and become senior executives, they would definitely cooperate more with their family company, which would allow her family’s business to return to its best period.
“Ah Ning is young, and she slept for several hours on the plane. She really slept from boarding to disembarking; she’s rested enough and won’t be tired.”
Chairman Fu knew the deeper meaning in his daughter-in-law’s words.
Her in-laws often came to persuade her.
Luckily, his daughter-in-law lacked ability, and he didn’t allow her to get involved in the Fu Group’s business; otherwise, the Fu Group might really have fallen into the hands of her inlaws.
Therefore, Ah Ning had been raised by him since she was a child.
He only had this one grandchild, whom he cherished like the apple of his eye. He personally took care of her upbringing, not entrusting it to others; he didn’t trust those people. After Mr. Fu said that, Mrs. Fu couldn’t say anything more.
She couldn’t very well complain that her father-in-law was going home to rest while her daughter went back to the company, could she?
Her father-in-law was getting old; it was normal for him to go home to rest first.
She felt that since her father-in-law and Aning had gone on a business trip together, the grandfather and granddaughter should come back together.
Mr. Fu didn’t care what his daughter-in-law thought.
He sat for a short while and then went into the dining room to eat.
