Chapter 673: Giving It All to Someone
Butler Kang quickly said, “Alright, I’ll bring them all back for the servants in the kitchen to drink.”
s.h.i.+ Jin pursed her lips and smiled. She had more or less guessed what Old Master Fu was thinking. This old man was really quite cute. He was embarra.s.sed to apologize to a junior, but he felt that he owed s.h.i.+ Jin too much for what he had done in the past, so he was trying to tell s.h.i.+ Jin his att.i.tude.
She saw through it but didn’t say anything. She smiled and said, “Then I’ll have to trouble Butler Kang to change my cup too.”
Butler Kang brewed another cup of tea and asked, “Then, Old Master, are you also giving away the supplements sent by Miss Qin?”
“Of course. Didn’t I tell you to give it to the servants?” Old Master Fu pretended to look at him angrily.
“Yes, yes, yes, I’m forgetful. I’ll send it right away.” Butler Kang went out with a smile.
“Grandpa, are you feeling better now? Don’t you need any supplements?” s.h.i.+ Jin asked, playing along.
Old Master Fu finally found something to say. “That’s not it. When you’re old, it’s inevitable that you’ll feel uncomfortable here and there. Sometimes, you still need someone to take care of you. It’s just that since I’m old, I can’t help but have some problems with my judgment. Sometimes, I can’t even judge people accurately.”
s.h.i.+ Jin smiled and personally poured him a cup of tea. “It’s inevitable for people to make mistakes. Who dares to say that everyone is accurate and does the right things throughout their entire lifetime? Actually, it’s not scary to be inaccurate occasionally. What’s valuable is being able to admit that you were wrong in the past.”
“Makes sense, makes sense!” Old Master Fu stroked his beard and laughed. He found s.h.i.+ Jin more and more pleasing to the eye.
s.h.i.+ Jin spoke with him some more before returning to her room.
The smile on Old Master Fu’s face never faded.
When Butler Kang returned and saw how happy he was, he could not help but say, “Our Young Madam is still the best. With her around, Young Master is happy, and Old Master is also so happy.”
“That’s right,” Old Master Fu said. “Unfortunately, I realized it a little late.”
“It’s not too late. I think Young Madam really respects you.”
“Right, what about those things s.h.i.+ Jin gave me before? Is there any left?”
Butler Kang: “…”
Butler Kang said, “You gave them all away.”
Old Master Fu’s face fell. “Forget it. I’m not worthy.”
He thought for a long time before saying slowly, “Let’s call the imperial capital!”
Butler Kang was stunned for a moment and suspected that he had heard wrongly. Wasn’t Old Madam Fu in the capital?
Previously, because of Qiu Xingmi and Fu Zhaoxiang, the Old Master and the Old Madam had quarreled endlessly and had grudges against each other. Later on, the Old Madam simply moved to the Imperial Capital in the name of taking care of Fu Xiuyuan, leaving the Old Master alone here.
Previously, the connection between the two of them was all thanks to Fu Heyan.
During this period of time, Fu Heyan had to take care of her pregnancy. So the old couple had not contacted each other for a long time.
He did not expect the old man to take the initiative to ask!
Butler Kang replied excitedly, “Alright!”

On Old Madam Fu’s side, she was arranging flowers in the garden. When she heard the butler say that there was a call, she said calmly, “Bring it over.”
Taking the phone, Old Madam Fu said, “Old Kang, what’s the matter?”
“It’s me.”
Hearing Old Master Fu’s voice on the phone, Old Madam Fu was a little surprised. Wasn’t it usually Butler Kang who called?
