Chapter 79: Chapter 79 Her Daughter Is Simply Too Perfect! Chapter 79: Chapter 79 Her Daughter Is Simply Too Perfect! Zuo Jing’an, the elder, upon seeing Qingwu for the first time, immediately knew how he wanted to start writing his new work!
The elder felt that his long-dormant passion was rekindled, and the creative block was suddenly lifted!
Zuo Wanjun was also very surprised.
“Dad, how many years has it been since you last wrote a book? After winning the Huanuoer Literary Award last time, didn’t you say you wanted to take a break?”
The elder was full of energy, showing no signs of discomfort.
“After seeing Xiao Wu, I feel like I could write ten more books! Xiao Wu, your grandpa has a piano store, neither too big nor too small, I’ll give it to you. You can visit it whenever you have time and find an Ancient Zither you like. We’ll start creating next week!”
Zuo Wanjun hurriedly stopped the elder.
“Dad, there are so many things to deal with at the piano store. Won’t Xiao Wu get exhausted? If you care for her, just get her an Ancient Zither directly.”
Zuo Jing’an’s piano store was not just a piano store but also an art exhibition center where many masters’ Ancient Zithers were displayed, and the visitors were all prominent figures in the Ancient Zither world.
“Girls should have a career of their own too. Xiao Wu, the piano store will be yours from now on, and the money it earns each year will be yours. Also, the gallery next door will be yours too. If it gets too much, have your brother help you out, you take the money, and he does the work.”
The elder didn’t think there was anything wrong with his decision at all.
Suddenly, he had endowed Qingwu with several businesses, and it seemed like there was more to give.
Shen Boyi, upon hearing this, found the elder’s arrangement quite reasonable.
“Fine, I’ll help Xiao Wu manage it. The profits will be hers, and any losses will be mine.”
The elder smiled with satisfaction. “Smart move, kid.”
Shen Boyi already had plenty on his plate, finding time to have a meal with the family was a struggle; every day, he was reviewing the company’s financial statements in the car. If given so many companies, he would definitely be overwhelmed.
Qingwu immediately spoke up, “I can manage it myself; it’s grandpa’s painstaking effort. I will learn from my brother.”
Elder Zuo nodded, “That works too, they’re small companies anyway. You can play around with them. Even if they accidentally go bankrupt, it’s on grandpa.”
Listening to Elder Zuo’s tone, it was as if he was grooming Qingwu into some kind of idle rich child.
Qingwu knew the elder felt he owed her, and she felt a warmth in her heart.
Love often feels a sense of inadequacy, and the Shen Family and the Zuo Family felt they owed her because of love!
Tu Lan looked lovingly at Qingwu, her graying hair didn’t affect her elegance, adding instead to her calm grace.
“Xiao Wu, September is nearing, have you decided which university to attend? If you’re unsure, would you like to study biology with grandma?”
Qingwu took out the acceptance letter from her bag and handed it to Tu Lan.
“I plan to attend Beijing University to study jewelry design.”
She had decided on her school and major some time ago, partly because Beijing University is the closest university to the Shen Family, and partly because when she was a child, she promised Mrs. Lin that she would definitely design the best jewelry in the world.
When she was young in the small courtyard under the starry sky, Mrs. Lin held her and taught her to recognize the stars in the sky.
“Someday our Nannan will also become a shining star.”
“Then I’ll study jewelry design and design the most beautiful jewelry for grandma!”
Mrs. Lin laughed so broadly she couldn’t close her mouth, hugging Qingwu and smothering her with kisses, filling the courtyard with the laughter of the grandparent and grandchild…
Tu Lan looked at Qingwu’s acceptance letter, unable to keep her laughter contained.
“My goodness! Our Xiao Wu is so impressive, it’s an early admission letter! How smart, truly worthy of being our child!”
Zuo Wanjun also came over, holding Qingwu’s acceptance letter, hugging Qingwu and showering her with kisses right on the spot!
Her daughter was simply perfect!
Beautiful, good-tempered, and even studying so well in a place like the Lin Family, such a perfect daughter, undeniably her Zuo Wanjun’s treasure!
“Xiao Wu, why didn’t you tell us?”
Qingwu was slightly speechless.
Among the Shen children, starting from Shen Boyi to Shen Shaojia, almost all of them were admitted to university on a recommendation, not to mention Shen Shaojia, who was a prodigy in the young class. This letter was hardly considered a remarkable achievement in the Shen Family…
“I received it a few days ago.”
Shen Dongli was extremely excited, tears streaming down.
“Our Shen Family just happens to own a few jewelry companies; they’re all yours! Your brother will help manage them first, and you can work there directly after graduation!”
Zuo Wanjun agreed wholeheartedly.
“Girls should have their own career. Xiao Wu, it’s not that mom and dad don’t want to support you, but look at mom, because she stayed at home doing nothing, she was bullied.”
When Shen Dongli saw that his wife was bringing up some sensitive topics again, he felt flustered.
“Wife, why don’t we go abroad for a holiday after Xiao Wu starts school? Leave that pile of troublesome affairs at home to the eldest!”
“You’re right, after we send Xiao Wu to school, let’s find a place to travel. Then when Xiao Wu is on winter break, she can join us. Didn’t we buy an island last time? We’ll just buy one for Xiao Wu too!”
Shen Boyi could hardly bear looking at this couple.
So, while you’re off having fun, everything at home is left to him, right?
Against Mrs. Shen’s unreasonable antics, he was practically helpless!
Qingwu remembered Elder Shen’s advice and glanced at Shen Boyi beside her, who was silently distressed.
“Brother, grandpa said not to worry too much about it.”
Shen Boyi’s eyes lit up!
Regarding Mrs. Shen, they had long since harbored little affection for her, having watched from a young age as she bullied Zuo Wanjun, and she wasn’t good to the children either, sometimes even treating Shen Yurou better.
During meals as children, only Shen Yurou had meat in her bowl while Shen Boyi and his younger siblings couldn’t even get eggs!
Seeing this, Zuo Jing’an assumed the Shen Family was going bankrupt and took the children away. Mrs. Shen even suspiciously remarked that the Zuo Family looked down on the Shen Family and questioned the practice of a married daughter returning to her mother’s home so often.
If she weren’t an elder, Shen’s sons wouldn’t even want anything to do with her!
Now that Elder Shen had spoken, he was no longer worried about anything else!
“Got it,” he replied.
Zuo Jing’an delightedly gazed at Qingwu’s acceptance letter, his eyes curved like crescent moons from smiling.
“Xiao Wu, can grandpa keep this? Grandpa wants to frame it and put it in the study!”
Zuo Jing’an’s study was filled with trophies from various literary awards, now putting up her completely valueless acceptance letter among them? Qingwu blushed just thinking about it…
Yet everyone else seemed to think it made sense.
Tu Lan clasped her hands together, looking at Qingwu with a face full of anticipation, “Xiao Wu, have a copy made for grandma. Grandma wants to hang it in the lab, and let’s take a family photo later. Grandma wants to keep my little Wu with me all the time!”
“But second brother, third brother, and sister aren’t home.”
Tu Lan waved her hand dismissively, “Grandma has plenty of their photos, taken every year, a whole bunch of them! Grandma just wants yours!”
Tu Lan and Zuo Jing’an, both of whom were elderly, were still active in creation and research, but their hearts were most attached to their granddaughter Qingwu.
It was a pity they couldn’t see their granddaughter’s childhood; the damn Lin Family didn’t even take a few photos!
On the other hand, there were countless photos of Lin Xuecheng.
Now seeing Qingwu, they wanted nothing more than to hold her dear, seeing her in only the best light.
“Okay, I’ll take a photo with grandma and grandpa later.”
“Yes, yes! Grandpa and grandma will go change clothes right away!”
