After rebirth, my elder sister wants to steal my husband!

Chapter 224 You Just Need to Be Happy

Hearing Zhang Xiangxiu's accusation, Fu Yuzhang felt a pang of pain in his heart.

He knew that the beautiful girl hidden in the golden house that Zhang Xiangxiu mentioned was the guard of Si Qi that Lu Zhiran brought back. Lu Zhiran had explained this matter to him before. At that time, Si Qi saved Lu Zhiran's life, and Lu Zhiran promised to arrange accommodation for Si Qi in the capital.

He knew that what Zhang Xiangxiu accused him of was just Lu Zhiran's act of kindness and there was nothing wrong with it.

However, facing Zhang Xiangxiu's aggressiveness at this moment, he didn't know how to explain.

He took a deep breath, trying to calm his anger, and said in a deep voice: "Zhi Ran went to Chengguan for some property, and she brought back that man only because he was seriously injured and needed treatment."

"If you continue to act unreasonably, don't blame me for not remembering our friendship."

Zhang Xiangxiu felt flustered when she heard this.

She originally thought that by finding something against Lu Zhiran she could make Fu Yuzhang change his mind about her, but she didn't expect that it would anger him instead.

She bit her lip, a hint of resentment and resentment flashing in her eyes.

She suddenly thought of something, her face changed, and she said quickly: "My Lord, I know I was wrong. I was just confused for a moment, so I did such a thing. I beg you to forgive me this time for the sake of my past service to you."

As she said this, she actually knelt down and looked at Fu Yuzhang with tearful eyes, looking so pitiful.

However, Fu Yuzhang had become immune to her tears and pleas.

He looked at her coldly, without a trace of emotion in his heart.

He knew that the reason why Zhang Xiangxiu begged him so humbly was because she was afraid of losing her current status and life.

He said calmly, "Get up. Since this is your first offense, I will let you go this time."

"But if there is a next time, I will never let you off easily."

After saying that, he turned and walked towards the study door, not wanting to look at Zhang Xiangxiu any more.

Just ask the servant to ask Zhang Xiangxiu to go back.

For Zhang Xiangxiu, Fu Yuzhang's punishment was too light, mostly just verbal warnings.

But for Zhang Xiangxiu, she could not bear this grievance.

Fu Yuzhang is too heartless!

When new people come, the old ones are too lazy to pay attention to them.

Zhang Xiangxiu looked at his departing back, a trace of resentment and unwillingness flashed in her eyes. She knew that she had really annoyed Fu Yuzhang this time.

However, she was unwilling to lose to Lu Zhiran like this.

She swore that she would find Lu Zhiran's flaw and make her completely lose Fu Yuzhang's favor.

……

Inside the Fu Mansion, the spring sunshine slanted down, shining on the bluestone slabs, creating tiny golden glows.

The palace is filled with towering ancient trees, fragrant flowers, and a peaceful and harmonious scene.

However, something unusual happened in the Fu Mansion today, causing quite a stir in the originally peaceful mansion.

Fu Yuzhang, the grandson of the Fu family, has been extremely intelligent since childhood, but he has not paid much attention to studying. He spends all day playing in public with his friends, flirting with other girls, and living a carefree and carefree life.

However, in the past few days he has been acting out of character, studying hard behind closed doors all day, neglecting food and sleep.

Old Madam Fu is very old, with a head full of silver hair and a kind face. Her most beloved grandson is this one.

When she heard this, she couldn't help but worry, fearing that her grandson's hard study would hurt his health.

So she went to Fu Yuzhang's study in person and wanted to persuade him to take a rest.

In the study, Fu Yuzhang was sitting at the desk, holding a book with a focused expression.

There was a firmness and determination in his brow, as if he wanted to absorb all the knowledge in the book into his mind.

The sunlight shone through the window lattice, onto his body, covering him with a layer of golden glow.

Madam Fu gently pushed open the door, walked in, and saw this scene.

Look, the children are going to become stupid from studying.

Seeing her grandson like this, she felt both relieved and distressed. She walked to Fu Yuzhang and whispered, "Yuzhang, why are you doing this? You are the grandson of the Marquis's family. You can inherit the title without doing anything. Why do you have to go through the trouble of studying?"

Fu Yuzhang raised his head and saw his grandmother standing in front of him, and his heart felt warm.

He put down the book in his hand, stood up, and bowed respectfully: "Grandma, I know you love me."

"But my grandson has made up his mind to work hard, study hard, and seek fame and honor for the Fu family."

When Mrs. Fu heard this, a hint of surprise flashed in her eyes.

She knew very well that although her grandson was smart, he had no interest in studying.

Now that he has said this, it is clear that he really wants to change.

However, Madam Fu, who had loved and even doted on her grandson since childhood, could not help but persuade him: "Yu Zhang, you have been smart since childhood, you don't need to work so hard."

"Besides, the Fu family is already prominent enough, why do you have to work so hard for fame?"

Fu Yuzhang shook his head and said firmly: "Grandma, I know that the Fu family is prominent, but I don't want to rely solely on the protection of my ancestors."

"My grandson wants to bring greater glory to the Fu family through his own efforts. Moreover, my grandson also wants to prove himself, to prove that he is not just a playboy."

When Mrs. Fu heard these words, she was completely dumbfounded.

Where did her ignorant and uneducated precious grandson get such great ambition from?

How come after following Lu Zhiran to Ping'an Temple, he has changed so much.

Could it be that I’m possessed?

But looking at the admiration in Fu Yuzhang's eyes, Mrs. Fu knew that Fu Yuzhang was not possessed.

Looking at the determination and resolve in her grandson's eyes, Mrs. Fu couldn't help but feel deeply moved.

There are indeed no useless descendants of the Fu family!

However, the Fu family does not need an ambitious child at this stage.

So, she gently patted Fu Yuzhang's shoulder and said softly, "Yuzhang! It's a good thing that you have this intention, but grandma is afraid of hard work. You have been without a father and a grandfather since you were a child. God owes you too much. You just need to have fun. The family honor doesn't need you."

"Grandma, as long as you are happy every day, that's enough."

As he said this, Mr. Fu ordered his servants to take out the books in Fu Yuzhang's study and throw them away. Fu Yuzhang was dumbfounded.

Fu Yuzhang stood there in a daze, as if he had not expected Madam Fu to do this. His eyes were fixed on the servants who were busy moving the books out of the study one by one.

Some of those books have turned yellow, while others still emit a faint scent of ink. Each one carries the hard work and sweat of his days and nights.

At this moment, they are like abandoned orphans, being ruthlessly kicked out.

An indescribable sadness welled up in his heart.

He turned to look at Madam Fu, that kind and familiar face seemed so strange at this moment.

He opened his mouth and wanted to say something, but found that he couldn't utter a single word.

Madam Fu looked at him, with a hint of complicated emotions in her eyes.
