Chapter 339: Chapter 337: Simply Double the Happiness!
She had heard that Feng Jiaye was taken away by the police and immediately made a trip to see him.
Her son was locked in a special ward, undergoing treatment—his entire face swollen like a pig’s head. The doctor had said he was kicked in the groin, and it was quite possible that he might never be able to have children again.
His recovery would determine the final outcome.
What a sin!
Feng Jiaye was the sole scion of their family!
The treasure of the Old Feng Family!
She knew Feng Jiaye had been beaten but didn’t know who had done it or how many people were involved.
But seeing how severely their Feng Jiaye was beaten, she concluded there must have been quite a few, so she exaggerated the story in front of Old Master Song.
"Our Jiaye has just arrived in Shangjing and didn’t know who he offended, yet he was beaten to such a state, Old Master, you must stand up for us. After all, Jiaye is almost like a member of the Song Family, right? He’s Sinian’s cousin..."
Hao Li’s words made the old butler’s head ache.
Not to mention Old Master Song.
What did she mean?
He had just arrived in Shangjing, hadn’t offended anyone, and was beaten up, so was it the enemies of the Song Family who did it?
Sinian’s cousin is one thing, but how did he become almost a member of the Song Family?
They didn’t want to acknowledge that at all.
How much the Feng family valued men and looked down on women was clear to Old Master Song long after Feng Xiran had married into the Song Family.
If it hadn’t been for Feng Xiran’s seemingly docile and wise appearance, he wouldn’t have turned a blind eye to her supporting her natal family.
Little did he expect that the seemingly docile and wise Feng Xiran would be so cruel to her own son!
Old Master Song thought of this matter, and anger filled his belly.
His beloved grandson had been estranged from him precisely because of Feng Xiran.
Now that he finally started to become more humane after marrying his precious granddaughter-in-law, those clowns from the Feng family appeared again.
Old Master Song thought about it and wanted to spit on the Feng family.
Had it not been for the face of the Song Family and the young Song Sinian, the issues with Feng Xiran would have been made public long ago.
He was annoyed by the Feng family people visiting, but he still had to invite them to Song Sinian’s wedding when the time came.
Old Master Song let out a sigh and waved at the old butler, "You go take care of this matter, see what exactly is going on, and handle it as it should be handled."
The old butler had followed him for so many years and knew his mind, so naturally, he trusted him to do things properly.
Hao Li, upon hearing this, seemed somewhat unhappy. Their Jiaye had such a big incident, and just a housekeeper was sent to deal with it?
Wasn’t that too dismissive?
Moreover, their Jiaye was injured, and the Old Master didn’t even offer to give him proper treatment, let alone mention that their family should come to stay at the Song Mansion.
They were strangers in this place.
Wouldn’t he extend the courtesy due to a host?
After all, they were relatives by marriage!
Her brow furrowed, "Old Master, our Jiaye..."
"If you think the butler won’t handle it as well as you would, then handle it yourselves," Old Master Song cut her off before she finished speaking.
He didn’t want to deal with the Feng family’s matters in the first place.
If it weren’t for them coming to him, he wouldn’t bother.
"Now you still dare to be picky?"
"Do they think the Song Family is running a charity?"
Hao Li shivered and suddenly fell silent.
The butler didn’t indulge her and simply added fuel to the fire, "Mr. Song, don’t be angry, the Song Family has never before had an issue with retrieving someone from the police station. The Feng family worries I lack experience and might not manage well, which I can understand."
Hao Li nearly had a heart attack then.
"It’s not, not what I meant," Hao Li moved her mouth, still trying to struggle.
But thinking of the current situation, she could only grit her teeth, "I, I would like to thank Old Master Song on behalf of our Jiaye first..."
Old Master Song didn’t even lift his eyelids, "Mhm, cause fewer troubles in the future, that would be thanks enough."
"..."
At the same time, after leaving the mall, Lu Zhaozhao headed to the Xia Family.
She recently heard in Luna’s fan group that Luna’s paintings had won an Alexander Hertz Prize abroad.
The prize was almost the equivalent of a Nobel Prize in the art world.
Arguably the most authoritative international award in painting.
So she planned to give this bracelet as a gift to Wen Qingyu.
She had thought that after arriving at the Xia Family, she could have some quality time bonding with her mom and enjoy being pampered by her.
She never imagined that when she arrived at the Xia Family, all her brothers were there.
She blinked in surprise and before she could speak, Xia Wenyan made a proud welcoming gesture, "Ta-da~ Surprise or not? I knew you’d come home after hearing mom won an award, so I specially called everyone here!"
Wen Qingyu gave Xia Wenyan a look, vigorously petting Kaka’s head, her disdain for this youngest son reaching its peak.
Indeed, she should’ve found partners for these stinky boys sooner to prevent them from competing with her for her daughter’s affection.
If it weren’t for maintaining a good mother’s image, Wen Qingyu would’ve wanted to perform a grand slaughter before her sons right then and there.
Xia Wenmo, seeing Wen Qingyu’s expression, couldn’t help but snicker, and quickly waved at Lu Zhaozhao, "Zhaozhao, come sit, we’ve been waiting for you."
Only then did Lu Zhaozhao obediently nod her head and took her seat beside Wen Qingyu.
She handed over the gift box she was holding, her little face blushing, "Mom, this is a gift I bought specifically for you, to congratulate you on the award."
She hadn’t spent a lot of time with Wen Qingyu, but she could feel her indulgence.
The things Lu Zhaozhao had not dared to hope for in her last life, she not only possessed in this one, her own mother had also become her idol.
Truly double the happiness!
Seeing this, Wen Qingyu immediately received the gift with a smile, and when she saw the bracelet inside, her smile brightened even more.
She put on the bracelet Lu Zhaozhao had bought for her right away, "Indeed, daughters are more considerate. All four of your brothers were thinking about how to sponge off their old lady’s prize money after hearing I won, hmph!"
"Mom, isn’t it because you said you already have everything, and whatever we buy, you’ll find terribly annoying," Xia Wenyan said first, trying to curry favor.
Sure enough, the next second he received a glare from Wen Qingyu.
Xia Wenjue, Xia Wenqing, and Xia Wenmo naturally stood quietly to the side, watching Xia Wenyan attract fire.
Having one beaten in their family was enough.
After all, better him than me.
With their sister there, Lao Si probably wouldn’t be beaten too badly.
That was enough. 𝓷ℴ𝓿𝓹𝓾𝒷.𝓬𝓸𝓂
Seeing the look in Wen Qingyu’s eyes toward Xia Wenyan turning increasingly dangerous, as if she might skin him on the spot, the Three Xia Brothers quietly moved behind the sofa...
