The daughter-in-law of a wealthy family does not lie flat

Fu Junlin asked Wang Manshu which collection or painting he liked best, and Wang Manshu did not hesitate.

Fu Junlin looked in that direction and couldn't help but read aloud:

"A new phoenix chick has grown up in Nanshan.

The eyebrows and eyes are clearly defined and not as good as those drawn.

He loved pears and millet since he was young.

To grow up, you must read a lot of books.

"

Ming Sicun and Zhou Huaiying also came over and said, "This is Wang Anshi's gift to his grandson. My father wrote it himself after I gave birth to my second brother Junlin, and framed it and sent it to me."

Wang Manshu said with emotion, "The old man's brushstrokes are like splendid paintings, and the strokes on paper are like clouds and smoke. His skills are profound and his brushwork is exquisite. In my opinion, even if he doesn't become a diplomat, he would be a first-class calligrapher."

Ming Sicun held Wang Manshu's hand and said, "Grandpa Junlin has always wanted to retire to the mountains and study hard. He often said that reading and playing the piano under the bamboo forest and the moon are the joys of life."

"The fact that an old man can write such a calligraphy piece for his grandson shows that he is full of expectations. He needs to read a lot of books when he grows up!"

While we were talking, the meal was ready in the kitchen and everyone took their seats, host and guest.

Zhou Huaiying saw that the food on the table was very rich, especially the rare Manchu dishes.

"Sister Ming, you are so polite!"

Ming Sicun introduced, "This Manchurian Duyuan is made of tenderloin, sea bass and chicken, beaten with egg white, and then simmered over low heat. I prepared it in a hurry today, so the heat may not be enough, so please just order it as it is!"

As he spoke, he served Zhou Huaiying a piece and kept using his eyes to prompt Fu Junlin to serve the food.

Fu Junlin was also very gentlemanly and served food to Wang Manshu as well.

Wang Manshu thanked him and took a bite. "So fresh and tasty!"

"Just eat what you like. We also have Qianlong Longevity Chicken and Sweet and Sour Pork. You can try them."

The more Ming Sicun looked at Wang Manshu, the more he felt that she was a good match for Fu Junlin. Today, Zhou Huaiying brought his daughter here, perhaps with the intention of meeting her.

Wang Manshu's family can be said to be both rich and noble. His father is well-known in the United Nations, his grandfather is a famous collector, and his mother, not to mention, owns 40% of Zhou's Jewelry.

Although the bulk of the Zhou family's property is in the hands of her uncle, unfortunately he has no children in his life and never remarried after his wife died. In the future, the property will most likely be left to Wang Manshu and her brother.

Wang Manshu's elder brother Wang Ningchuan has graduated from university and returned from studying abroad. He studied botany and stays in the mountains and forests every day without going home. In the future, this business will inevitably be managed by Wang Manshu and her son-in-law.

This is such a great condition! It's hard to find even with a lantern.

Thinking of this, Ming Sicun looked at Zhou Huaiying and found that Zhou Huaiying was also looking at Fu Junlin.

Fu Junlin may have many problems at home, but in the eyes of outsiders he can be considered a young talent.

Fu's business is getting bigger and bigger, and the company separated from the eldest daughter-in-law is even more popular. It is estimated that the Fu family is behind the fact that a young daughter-in-law in her early thirties can achieve such great success.

But this is a good thing, because it shows that the Fu family does not favor boys over girls! Manshu is a talented girl that she has carefully cultivated, and she must not marry into a family that is patriarchal.

Before Fu Junlin graduated, he organized a cross-national and cross-school college debate competition. Even Manshu’s father was watching it online, which shows that he has potential.

Given her understanding of the Fu family, she certainly knew the inside story.

The eldest son was born to the previous woman and was adopted. The second son had already lost his father's trust and was not even allowed to live in the mansion. The youngest daughter in the family was not interested in business and wanted to be a scientist. Only Fu Junlin was Ming Sicun's hope.

Thinking of this, I couldn't help but look at Ming Sicun.

Both of them were "foxes" who had practiced for a long time. They understood it with just one look. Without saying a word, they just picked up the wine glasses, clinked them together, and drank the wine in the glasses.

Fu Junlin was not a fool and could not understand what the two mothers meant, but he was not disgusted because Wang Manshu was really outstanding.

After they parted on the yacht last time, he came back and saw a video of her doing simultaneous interpretation at the United Nations. Jun Lin's spoken English has always been average, but when he saw Wang Manshu's natural and relaxed manner, he admired her from the bottom of his heart.

In the video, Wang Manshu has shoulder-length hair and almost no makeup on. The most impressive thing about her is her sharp eyebrows and bright eyes. The leader who was speaking quoted an ancient poem while answering the question, and she translated it perfectly.

While eating, Fu Junlin also asked her about her internship at the United Nations.

Wang Manshu was well-spoken and humorous. She told Fu Junlin a few things she had seen while working as a translator. For example, she witnessed everyone standing up and leaving when a representative was speaking in order to boycott a certain country, leaving the translator wondering whether they should follow suit. Another time, the meeting lasted too long and the translators fainted from exhaustion after taking turns.

These things are not something that people usually come into contact with. Not only Fu Junlin listened with great interest, but Ming Sicun also listened attentively.

Both the host and the guests enjoyed the meal very much. Before leaving, Ming Sicun took out a watch and a jade comb.

He personally put the watch on Wang Manshu, and symbolically combed her hair with a comb, and handed it to her, "This is the custom of giving gifts to younger generations in our hometown. I am particularly happy to see you today. You must come often in the future! Help Junlin with his spoken English, and I will give him a lot of tuition fees!"

Wang Manshu saw that the watch was a famous brand and didn’t dare to accept it, so she looked at her mother.

Zhou Huaiying nodded, "This is because your aunt likes you, keep it well! I came here in a hurry today, and I should have given Jun Lin a gift, but fortunately we have a long way to go!"

Only then did Wang Manshu thank him and accept it.

The Wang family's driver had already prepared the car. Wang Manshu and Fu Junlin agreed to meet the next day to discuss studying abroad in schools, and then the mother and daughter got in the car and left.

Ming Sicun stood at the gate for a long time and did not leave. He was very happy.

Fu Junlin immediately returned to his room and started looking for information about studying abroad.

Sitting in the big car, Wang Manshu looked at the valuable watch and jade comb, a little confused, "Mom, I can understand giving me a watch, but why giving me a comb?"

"This is the custom in her family. When giving someone a watch or clock as a gift, people may think it is unlucky, so they must pair it with a comb. This is called having teeth and a clock - having a beginning and an end. This is a gift for the future daughter-in-law or son-in-law."

Wang Manshu learned something again, "Mom, you are really knowledgeable. No wonder they say that knowing the world is knowledge, and knowing the human nature is writing."

"Manshu, you should observe Fu Junlin more recently. Marriage is a very important matter. We consider family background, but character and ability are also important."

Wang Manshu was a little shy. "Fu Junlin is a popular figure in school. There are many girls chasing after him, but I haven't heard of any scandals. He organizes activities every day, such as fishing and playing ball. He is still a bit playful."

"It's not a problem. His love of playing shows that he is passionate about life. There is a popular saying abroad that if a person has no hobbies, don't be friends with him. Such people are the most terrible."
