Chapter 281 - Jia Li's Mother-in-law
In the Fu Villa, Fu ChunHua sighed in relief as the soup and other dishes were ready. She had the servants pack them in big food flasks, while she went to have her bath.
She didn't take long in the bathroom and quickly got dressed. When she returned to the kitchen, she permitted the food to be moved to the car.
Fu ChunHua came face to face with Fu Hee who was giving them curious glances.
"Where are you going to?" Fu Hee asked with a frown when she saw the servants carrying different food flasks with them. And with Fu ChunHua dressed up that way, she knew she was bringing food to someone.
"Don't tell me you had no idea that your daughter-in-law was in labor in the middle of the night?" Fu ChunHua said with a surprised gaze.
"What!" Fu Hee exclaimed in surprise.
.Fu ChunHua chuckled softly before replying to her, "Are you for real? You don't act like a mother-in-law. Well, I don't have the time to stand here and talk with you, I have to go and see Jia Li and the baby."
Fu Hee stopped her from moving forward. "Where are you going to?"
"To the hospital of course." Fu ChunHua replied.
"I am Jia Li's mother-in-law and I should be the one to go to the hospital." Fu Hee said to her.
"Have you ever played your role as her mother-in-law before? For example, I stayed up cooking all these for her and what are your plans, to present my hard work to her?" Fu ChunHua asked with disbelief.
"I didn't mean that. Don't worry, I won't reap where I did not sow. I'm trying to change my ways, so I have to go with you to the hospital. Give me a few minutes." Fu Hee said before leaving their side in a hurry.
Fu ChunHua was surprised by her actions. She was thinking if Fu Hee actually wanted to come with her to the hospital.
Fu Hee, on the other hand was determined to go to the hospital to see Jia Li and her grandchild. She wanted to use this once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to make up for her past evil.
She could very well understand while nobody told her about Jia Li's labor. It was because they didn't trust her, given all that she has done in the past.
While Fu ChunHua was waiting for Fu Hee to come back, Grandfather Fu walked in with a happy smile on his face.
Fu ChunHua greeted him with a smile, as the servants bowed respectfully. Seeing the happy smile on their Master's face caused them to smile as well.
"Father, how is Jia Li and the child?" Fu Hee asked with a smile 😁
"Jia Li and the baby are doing great. We have a new princess in our family." Grandfather Fu said happily. He was thinking that he had another princess to dote on.
"That's a relief. Father, you have always favored girls over boys just like when mother was still alive." Fu ChunHua said with a smile.
"Fu Ju and I have always liked girls and it's a relief I have many ladies to take care of, while she is away." Grandfather Fu said with a smile.
Butler Lu who was standing behind him couldn't help but smile. The old man who stayed up till 5 AM now should be tired but instead, he was energetic because of the little princess.
"You have to take the food to Jia Li immediately. Go with the helicopter, she must be very hungry after a night of hard work." Grandfather Fu said.
Fu ChunHua was about to reply when Fu Hee approached them.
Fu Hee greeted the old man with a smile and congratulated him on the birth of the latest member of the Fu family.
Grandfather Fu glanced at her, and instead of replying, he asked, "Why are you dressed up?"
"Father, I'm going to see Jia Li and the baby." Before the old man could interrupt her, she continued, "Father don't worry, I'm not going there to cause trouble or claim rights. I want to use this opportunity to show my sincerity, please allow me to go."
Grandfather Fu sighed. He was happy today and didn't want anything to disrupt his peace.
"If I allow you to go, what about Fu Hua?" He asked with his gaze on her.
Fu Hee didn't seem worried about Fu Hua stopping her from seeing Jia Li and the baby. She sighed in relief and said to the old ma with a smile, "Father, that won't be a problem. If you allow me to go over, Fu Hua will not be against your wish."
Grandfather Fu stared at her for a few seconds before leaving. He understood exactly what her words meant.
Fu Hua knows that nobody he didn't want to come over can do that if Grandfather Fu did not permit it, but she was kind of wrong. She forgot her son had a stubborn personality and held grudges with the people that offended him.
"Thank you, father." Fu Hee said with a smile.
Fu ChunHua was surprised the old man didn't say anything. 'Has he forgiven her?'. She thought to herself.
"Lu, call everyone back home. Announce to my friends about the birth of Our Fu family's Princess. Choose any lucky news media and give the news to them. The World had to join me to celebrate." Grandfather Fu instructed happily.
He didn't want to keep the good news to himself and wanted everyone to join him in the celebration.
"Yes, Sir, I will do that immediately. Please get some sleep." Butler Lu said to him, as he featured for him to get into bed.
Grandfather Fu happily obliged and got into bed. He still had in mind of going back to the hospital to visit Jia Li and the baby, so he had to be obedient and get some sleep.
Fu Hee and Fu ChunHua took the helicopter to the hospital and 5 minutes later, they arrived at the private hospital.
In the VVIP hospital room, Jia Li had just finished breastfeeding their little girl, when Fu Hua leaned over to kiss her forehead.
"Happy Birthday to you and our little princess." Fu Hua whispered with a loving gaze.
"Thank you!" Jia Li replied with a smile. Giving birth to their daughter with Fu Hua's company was the best birthday gift ever.
