Back at home, Fu Kun pointed at Fu Xing’s nose and scolded his wife who was still angry. “You child! Why are you so afraid of him? I’m his big brother. Can he eat me?”

Fu Xing pretended not to hear Fu Kun’s words and sent these two troublesome elders home. He turned around and was about to leave when his mother stopped him. “Didn’t you say you weren’t going yesterday? Why did you come today?”

She knew her own son. No matter how bad his temper was, he was still her son after all. She let out a gentle breath and saw Fu Xing say with a cold face, “I was afraid that you would be beaten to death!”

Fu Kun’s face darkened when he heard that. “How can you talk to your mother like that? Also, what did you mean when you said that in front of Fu Zhen? Aren’t your mother and I doing this for your own good? Won’t all of this be ruined if you mess things up?”

“I meant it literally. I have nothing to do with what Si Ling does in the future!” Fu Xing looked at Fu Kun and his mother with exhaustion written all over his face.

“Can you guys stop provoking my Second Uncle and Si Mi in the future? You’re no match for them either. Every time, you’re treated like a clown! If you guys aren’t tired, I’m tired of cleaning up after you guys!”

“Why don’t you have any ambition at all?! So what if Fu Zhen is strong? He has no children, and it is unknown whether the one in Si Mi’s stomach is a boy or a girl! It looks like you’re the only one in the Fu family! Your father and I had planned so painstakingly for you, all because we wanted to give you a better future! Why don’t you understand?”

Fu Xing’s ears were starting to hurt from listening to his mother’s words. “I’m tired! I’m going back.” He had his own stubborn desires, and Mother Fu had her own plans, but they couldn’t convince each other!

This time, they still parted on bad terms!

Mother Fu turned to look at Fu Kun. “Tell me, how did he become like this!”

Fu Kun held her shoulder and comforted her gently. “Alright, since he doesn’t want to have any more entanglements with the Si family, let him be! Fu Xing isn’t an insensible person. Let’s not force him, alright?”

“I’m forcing him! I’m doing this for him!” Mother Fu glared at him. She lowered her head and let out a breath of turbid air. “No way! I still have to go to Mingjiang Temple and ask Master Mingan to read my fortune again! This time, you’ll go with me. Be more sincere!”

Fu Kun looked at her determined expression and nodded helplessly.

For some reason, Fu Xing’s mother had become obsessed with burning incense and worshipping Buddha! She heard that it was the Ding family’s wife who had recommended her to Mingjiang Temple. Mingjiang Temple was very effective, especially Master Mingan. His divination was the hardest to obtain. They had already made an appointment three months later!

Mingjiang Temple had already been somewhat famous in the past. It was located at the lower reaches of Mingjiang River and was adjacent to Nanhai. It was a temple that the local residents believed in very much. It was famous for divining people’s life prospects, children’s marriages, and so on. It was a famous quasi-temple!

Fu Kun did not believe in these things. However, after hearing what Mother Fu said a few times, he became somewhat interested. This was because this Master had accurately described his current awkward position in the entire Fu family!

Mingjiang Temple was located halfway up a high mountain. If they drove up, the mountain road would be a little narrow, and there would be a lot of people coming and going. If they weren’t careful, they would be stuck on the mountain!

Fu Kun looked at the mountain road that had been blocked for half an hour and asked impatiently, “Is this the only way up the mountain? Why hasn’t anyone moved for so long?”

“Alright, calm down! Doesn’t this just say that the temple has a lot of incense? We didn’t come to the wrong place!” She comforted him gently. “Open the window! The air in the mountain is pretty good!”

The driver lowered the window. The mountain wind blew in. It was a little cold, but it was indeed very fresh! Through the window, they could see the foot of the mountain, where Mingjiang River and Nanhai met. Fu Kun took a deep breath. “The air is really good! I just didn’t expect that things could develop so well here!”

“That’s right. There’s a very lively dock not far ahead! The last time we came here, we just happened to meet a large ship unloading goods. That scene, it was really lively!”

Fu Kun was a little interested. “Really! If it were 10 years ago, when it comes to shipping, who could compare to Mingjiang River! The city’s economy can develop so quickly and rapidly, and Mingjiang River has contributed a lot!”

“It’s just that the city’s economic development was too harmful to it. Over the years, it has slowly improved a lot! If it were a few years ago! Alas, you haven’t seen how badly Mingjiang River has been ruined!” The driver picked up the conversation and started chatting with Fu Kun!
