Fu Shiqin was holding the glass and Fu Shiyi was holding the wine, when both of their smiles stiffened.
The identical twins had almost the same expression, which was pretty amusing in some sense.
They exchanged a look with each other and quickly said, “We are celebrating grandma’s return!”
They had planned to celebrate their success at leaving this man all alone but it seemed that they had to whisper their celebratory words inwardly instead.
Fu Shiyi poured each of them a glass of wine and got one for Fu Hanzheng too.
“To our lovely grandma, welcome home! Cheers!”
The Old Lady could certainly see through the grandchildren’s ideas but seeing that they were frequently bullied by Fu Hanzheng, she cooperatively put on a performance with them.
However, she could help them once but not always.
Ever since childhood, they had lost many battles against their eldest brother but yet they never grew up.
Fu Hanzheng snatched Gu Weiwei’s wine away and said to the servant, “Pour her a cup of hot water.”
Soon, a cup of properly warmed water was delivered to Gu Weiwei.
Fu Shiyi and Fu Shiqin had thought that their brother was home to mistreat them but he actually sat down and ate without talking with them at all.
So they felt slightly relieved and drank a lot of wine, claiming that they were glad to have grandma home.
After dinner, the Old Lady asked Gu Weiwei to go upstairs so as to show her the present she had brought home for her.
Fu Shiyi and Fu Shiqin exchanged a look and decided to leave, in case they had to stay in the same room with their older brother.
They had just gotten up when he stopped them.
“Sit down!”
The two men quickly sat down, placed their hands on their knees and showed a very docile look.
“What is it, brother?” Fu Shiqin wore a very flattering smile on his face.
Fu Hanzheng glanced at the chef. “Where is their porridge?”
The chef carried over two bowls of mung bean porridge and gave one bowl to each of them.
Then he threw a very pitiful look at the two masters and excused himself out of the room.
Sitting in front of them, Fu Hanzheng snapped.
“Drink up the porridge.”
Fu Shiyi said with a smile, “No thanks, I am full.”
“Me too.” Fu Shiqin followed.
They clearly knew that the porridge was fatal but with grandma upstairs, no one was coming to their rescue.
Fu Hanzheng elegantly wiped the corner of his lips with the napkin and said nonchalantly.
“If you drink it up, I will forget what happened today, otherwise…”
Before he could finish his words, they had already raised the bowls.
That was a bowl of mung-bean porridge with wasabi.
They had just taken one mouthful of porridge when tears started trickling down their face. The feeling of suffering was killing them but they had to empty the bowls of mung-bean porridge because that man was staring down at them.
Seeing that they finished the food, Fu Hanzheng nodded happily and went upstairs.
Fu Shiqin and Fu Shiyi instantly put down the bowls, grabbed the water and drank it down immediately but they still felt horrible after the water was finished.
Gu Weiwei came out of the Old Lady’s room and saw the two men sticking out their tongues like two Husky dogs.
“What happened…”
Fu Shiyi was still shedding tears because of the porridge. “Brother poured wasabi into us the moment you went upstairs.”
Gu Weiwei looked at the two tearful men with a frown, showing no sympathy.
“Well, that is your own fault, isn’t it?”
The two men, who had expected to receive consolation, received hurtful words instead.
Then they went upstairs, shoulder to shoulder, and decided to console themselves instead.
As she passed by the study and saw Fu Hanzheng inside, she asked, “You forced your brothers to eat wasabi just now?”
Looking calm and fearless, Fu Hanzheng said, “They offered to eat it themselves.”
