Chapter 603: Zi Yi Getting Hit By Elder Dou


After alighting from the car, Zi Yi greeted everyone.


Her Third Aunt smiled and said, “Yiyi, you arrived just in time. We just finished preparing breakfast.”


Her Eldest Aunt said, “Let’s have breakfast first. Your Grandfather is waiting for you in the living room. We have things to get busy with after breakfast too.”


Elder Dou’s health had recovered to the extent that he was able to come out for meals.


Thus, the group had all headed to the living room together.


Dou Yue’er, who was walking next to the Fourth Madam asked, “Eldest Aunt, what are we doing today?”


The First Madam looked at Dou Yue’er and corrected her. “It’s what we are doing, but that ‘we’ does not include you. I’ll be happy as long as you do not cause trouble.”


Her words made everyone laugh.


Dou Yue’er pouted discontentedly, but she had self-awareness. She then walked over to Zi Yi’s side and held her arms. “Cousin, what are you doing today?”


“I’ll accompany Grandpa.”


“Then I’ll accompany Grandpa together with you.”


Zi Yi did not mind, but Dou Zerui purposely intimidated her. “Yue’er, aren’t you afraid Grandpa would ask you questions about your studies?”


Dou Yue’er was not worried in the slightest. “My cousin is a G.o.ddess of studying and Grandpa will more likely be asking her the questions instead of me.”


The Fourth Madam lightly flicked her forehead. “Since you know Zi Yi is good at studying, you should learn from her and don’t think about playing around all day long.”


Dou Yue’er was defeated. “Alright, Mom.”


Everyone was amused by her reaction once again.


Dou Xiangling, who was accompanying Elder Dou in the living room, saw the group laughing as they came in. She asked with a smile, “What were you talking about?”


Dou Zerui purposely took the lead and said, “We were saying that it has been a long time since Grandpa has checked Yue’er’s homework.”


Dou Yue’er glared at him discontentedly before she sneaked a peek at Elder Dou’s expression. She then said with a serious expression, “Grandpa, don’t listen to Second Brother. We were saying that Yiyi is the G.o.ddess of studying and you will be able to discuss academic matters with her. I will sit in and learn from her.”


Her words elicited a laugh from everyone.


Elder Dou waved at Zi Yi. “Yiyi, come over here.”


Zi Yi walked over to him.


When everyone took their seats, they started having breakfast in a warm atmosphere.


After breakfast, the First Madam said to Zi Yi, “You and Yue’er can accompany your Grandfather first. We will go out to the neighborhood around half-past ten to send out the wedding candies.”


It was a custom here that the bride would distribute wedding candies to the neighbors with her relatives and friends the day before she got married.


Zi Yi responded with a nod and helped Elder Dou to the backyard together with Dou Yue’er.


When Zi Yi walked out the door, she said to Dou Xiangling, “Xiangling, come find me later and I’ll give you a check-up.”


Dou Xiangling shook her head. “I feel fine, and what’s more, you are going to be very busy today. It’s the same even if you help me check-up after your wedding.”


Dou Xiangling’s complexion was indeed bad these days and the others had also noticed it.


The Third Madam said, “Xiangling, just let Yiyi check for you. It won’t take long either.”


The others said the same thing.


Dou Xiangling definitely could not act too agitated at this time and she thought for a moment before nodding her head. “Alright then, I’ll help pack the wedding candies first then find you later.”


Zi Yi nodded her head. Only then did she feel relieved and supported Elder Dou to the backyard.


When Zi Yi went out, Dou Xiangling started packing the wedding candies with a calm expression.


Half an hour later, she pretended to go to the washroom and went somewhere to give her friend a call.


“Call me in a while and say that you need to look for me urgently.”


The other party was surprised, but still agreed to do so.


Dou Xiangling returned and everyone was laughing cheerfully as they packed the wedding candies.


Sometime later, Dou Xiangling’s phone rang. After she answered the call, she revealed a confused expression.


The Third Madam asked, “Xiangling, what’s wrong?”


Dou Xiangling hesitated for a moment and said, “A friend of mine came to M.Uni and said that they brought me something. They asked me to head over to collect it.”


“Then you should go ahead.”


“But I won’t be able to help out then.”


The Second Madam laughed and said, “We’ll do fine without you. Which friend is it? Why don’t you ask them over for lunch?”


“I’m afraid it’s not possible,” Dou Xiangling said with a smile, “My friend has a flight at half-past eleven and she’s here due to a connecting flight. She told me to head over to the airport to collect the things instead.”


“In that case, you should leave soon.” The Third Madam turned around to look at the wall clock. “It’s only a little after eight right now. You will have enough time if you rush over and have a short get-together with your friend.”


“Okay.” Dou Xiangling put down the wedding candies and said, “Then I’ll be leaving.”


“Go ahead. Drive slowly while you’re on the road.”


“Got it.”



Zi Yi and Dou Yue’er accompanied Elder Dou to chat in the small living room within his room.


Elder Dou sat on his chair as he recounted the past. Zi Yi and Dou Yue’er sat on low stools and listened to his stories.


“The college entrance examination was only just resumed when I started studying. Our first batch of students consisted of a vast majority of undiscovered talents.”


“Really? Were there any incredible people?” Dou Yue’er propped up her face with a curious expression.


Elder Dou casually mentioned a few names who were well-known big shots.


Zi Yi asked out of curiosity, “Grandpa, did Ah Jing’s Grandfather go to university at that time?”


At the mention of Lu Jingye’s Grandfather, Elder Dou straightened his expression. “No. He looked down on educated people and felt that scholars were useless.”


Zi Yi grunted. “So he was naturally born with that overbearing att.i.tude and ego.”


Elder Dou knocked her on the forehead.


Zi Yi held her forehead and revealed a confused look. “Grandpa, why did you hit me?”


Elder Dou said, “No matter what kind of person he is, he’s now your Grandfather. You shouldn’t say anything about him even if other people do.”


“It was just talking amongst ourselves.”


Elder Dou looked at her expression that looked as if she had suffered an injustice. He felt bad and raised his hand to stroke her forehead.


He then sighed and said, “Every cause brings a consequence. Lu Jinghong will be punished one day for his behavior.”


Even though Elder Dou was sick and recuperating at home, he still knew about what went on outside.


Ever since the day that Lu Jingye was removed from the position of the Lu Group, he knew that the Lu Group would not go far. Moreover, other members of the Lu Family were incapable of managing such a large company. When the time comes, many troubles would certainly arise and Lu Jinghong would only get angry if that happens.


The more he gets angry, the more it would make those people around him feel their hearts go cold.


If it developed in a bad direction, a situation of betrayal would certainly happen. 3


Elder Dou did not tell that to Zi Yi.


He changed the topic and continued talking about his youth until the First Madam came and called for Zi Yi.


Only then, did Zi Yi follow her outside.


After coming out, she recalled something and glanced around. When she did not see Dou Xiangling, she asked, “Where’s Xiangling?”


“One of her friends came here for a connecting flight and brought some things for her. She went to the airport to collect them.


Before Zi Yi could say anything, the Fourth Madam pa.s.sed her a large bag of wedding candies. “Xiangling will be back at noon. Let’s distribute them first.”
