Fu Xizhou is the closest to Mrs. Fu. He knows the character of the old lady well and values the orthodox bloodline very much.
Therefore, in the eyes of the old lady, the children born to Gu Beisheng and him are the best.
However, Xiaozhou's birth was beyond his control.
He has owed Xiaozhou for many years, and now that he has brought Xiaozhou back, he does not want his grandma to be prejudiced against him.
This will cause psychological trauma to Xiaozhou.
He hoped that grandma could accept Xiaozhou.
After thinking for a moment, he talked about the past: "Grandma, five years ago, I received news about Mr. Qin and came to Bincheng."
Of course Mrs. Fu knows Mr. Qin, and she has been looking for Mr. Qin for many years.
Mr. Qin is a famous doctor who lives in seclusion in the mountains. It is said that he has excellent medical skills and can cure patients even if they are terminally ill. Therefore, he has a reputation as a miracle doctor.
It's a pity that his whereabouts are elusive and he likes to travel around the world. No one knows where he is.
She searched for it for more than 20 years, but found nothing.
However, I didn't expect that Xizhou himself was also looking for it, so he asked aloud: "You came back before, why didn't you tell me?"
Fu Xizhou explained: "It was my eldest brother who asked me to come back to see Mr. Qin. My physical condition was very poor at the time. We didn't want you to worry too much, so we didn't tell you."
When Fu Qingjue was mentioned, the old lady's expression became much gentler, mixed with deep thoughts, and she blamed: "Your elder brother is the same, he didn't tell me anything."
After saying that, he sighed again: "Think about it, this is also the style of you two brothers. You always report good news but not bad news. Then, have you met Mr. Qin?"
Fu Xizhou shook his head: "I should be able to see you, but I became ill, and then in a state of confusion, I had a relationship with a strange woman."
Hearing this, Mrs. Fu's pupils dilated in shock, and she was in disbelief: "Has he been plotted by that woman?"
"No." Fu Xizhou said without hesitation.
At that time, Shi Qing also had doubts.
But he firmly believed in his feelings.
That girl, she was also forced.
If she had plotted against him, how could she be so scared and disappear without a trace afterwards?
"Have you looked for her?"
Fu Xizhou shook his head: "Not found, she is missing."
Mrs. Fu was stunned. She didn't expect that there were people in this world who could not be found in Xizhou.
"At that time, I found Wen Wanwan's sister Wen Susu. All evidence proved that she was that girl. When I found her, she was already dead and left behind a child."
Mrs. Fu searched for Wen Wanwan in her mind and had forgotten what she looked like. She only remembered that she was a woman who did not know her own abilities.
Mrs. Fu was so smart. Just after thinking about it carefully, she guessed a possibility and asked aloud: "Could it be that that child is Xiaozhou?"
Fu Xizhou nodded.
Mrs. Fu's face turned pale, and she fell softly on the bed, covering her chest with one hand, and the feeling of chest tightness and shortness of breath resurfaced again.
She gasped heavily and couldn't accept this fact for a long time.
Fu Xizhou stood up quickly and patted her back gently, giving her silent comfort.
Mrs. Fu grabbed his hand, squeezed it tightly, frowned, and asked sadly: "Xizhou, so many big things happened, how could you not tell me?"
"Later I found out that Wen Susu and Xiaozhou are not related by blood, so I didn't tell you."
"Is Xiaozhou your child?"
Fu Xizhou nodded: "He is."
Mrs. Fu was a little confused: "How could this happen..."
"There are two possibilities. Wen Susu took Xiaozhou away from his mother's side. The other possibility is that someone placed Xiaozhou next to Wen Susu, but so far, I haven't found out."
When Mrs. Fu listened to this series of news, she felt that there was an invisible hand holding her throat tightly, making it impossible for her to breathe.
Who on earth would do so many things behind the scenes?
Mrs. Fu asked: "So, you haven't found the girl yet?"
"Um."
Mrs. Fu patted the edge of the bed and said heartbrokenly: "What a sin! You haven't figured out your own affairs, and you haven't found the child's mother. How can you marry the daughter of the Gu family in this situation? No matter it's for that girl.
It is also irresponsible to Shengsheng."
Looking at Fu Xizhou, I saw him lowering his eyes, with a hint of coolness in his expression. He looked very lonely, as if he had been abandoned by the world, and there was no trace of warmth from his heart to his body.
She was stunned for a moment, then suddenly woke up, her heart ached violently, and she looked very pale.
"Xizhou, I'm sorry... Grandma shouldn't have said that to you. You can't refuse to marry a wife."
This marriage was decided by Bai Hui.
As long as Bai Hui decides something, neither she nor Fu Ting can veto it, let alone Xizhou?
He has always been apathetically obedient to his mother.
It stems from the sins he suffered as a child...
Fu Xizhou said nothing, and rubbed the jade ring in his hand, thoughtfully.
Mrs. Fu asked again: "Does Shengsheng know about this?"
"she does not know."
"How long do you plan to hide it?"
Fu Xizhou's fingers paused. The fingertips that touched the jade ring were cold and gradually turned white, and his breathing became a little heavier.
He had thought about this question, but never had an answer.
Mrs. Fu had a sad look on her face: "If Shengsheng knew that she had become someone's stepmother for no reason, with her proud character, she would definitely not stay here anymore."
"Um."
"Are you okay? Have you figured out how to deal with it?"
Fu Xizhou frowned slightly, looked at him, and said seriously: "Grandma, help me hide my marriage relationship with Gu Beisheng in front of Xiaozhou."
"What about the future? It's impossible to hide it forever."
Fu Xizhou said: "Leave the rest to time."
Mrs. Fu couldn't think of any other way. When she thought about deceiving Shengsheng from now on, she felt very uncomfortable.
But there is no other way.
Fu Xizhou spoke again, his voice much gentler: "Also, I want to ask you something."
Mrs. Fu nodded: "Go ahead."
"Be nice to Xiaozhou. I have been in debt to him for so many years and I want to make it up to him."
Mrs. Fu looked at him with slightly lowered eyes, her eyes full of guilt, and she felt very uncomfortable: "I try to be nice to him, but I will always keep a place in my heart for you and Shengsheng's grandson."
Fu Xizhou pursed his lips and said nothing.
He knew his grandma, and what she cared about most was the bloodline of the couple.
Now that such a great-grandson suddenly appeared, it was hard to accept it for a while.
As long as she doesn't reject Xiaozhou, the relationship can slowly develop.
"Let's go downstairs."
Mrs. Fu stood up, suddenly remembered something very important, and frowned: "Why did you go off topic? You haven't said yet, when will you and Shengsheng get married?"
