277 Heading To The Capital!
The moment Shen Ruojing said this, Fourth Madam Bai immediately stared at her in shock. “The Yun Family actually has it?”
When ‘Madman’ appeared, he stunned all the contemporary literacy heroes with his cursive writing.
However, he was only active for two years before he vanished. After that, someone released news saying that he had passed away.
After his death, his cursive calligraphy was immediately regarded as the wildest cursive script of this generation. It was difficult to get even a single piece of his writing.
So, Fourth Madam Bai didn’t expect the Yun Family to actually possess one.
Madam Yun was stunned. The Yun Clan had one?
She looked at Shen Ruojing and wanted to say something, but she chose to shut up instead.
They mustn’t let others look down on them.
Shen Ruojing was definitely doing this to help Yun Wei get some pride back.
Hence, Madam Yun gritted her teeth and continued, “Correct, we do indeed have one. At that time, we will gift that to Old Master Bai.”
The Fourth Madam Bai’s attitude became somewhat friendlier after hearing this, and the hint of respect in her eyes when she looked at the Yun Family increased, while her initial disdain was reduced.
However, the panic in Madam Yun’s heart grew when she saw this.
A single calligraphy piece could cause the Fourth Madam Bai’s attitude to change. This indicated that it was definitely extremely difficult to purchase!
Could she have over-boasted?
What if they weren’t able to purchase one? What should she do then?
Despite her heart feeling incredibly panicky, Madam Yun maintained a friendly expression.
It could finally be considered a happy ending for both parties after Fourth Madam Bai left with Bai Xiaojiu.
When their car vanished in the distance, the first thing Madam Yun did was to look at Shen Ruojing. “Jingjing, what was the cursive calligraphy piece spoken of by Fourth Madam Bai? Do you h…”
“I have it,” Shen Ruojing spoke with certainty.
Madam Yun started. “You really do?”
When Shen Ruojing came to Yun Manor, she didn’t bring many things in her luggage. Why hadn’t Madam Yun seen anything resembling a calligraphy piece in it before?
Shen Ruojing rubbed her nose. “Aunt-in-law, don’t worry. I really have one.”
Madam Yun smiled. “That’s good then.”
But when she turned around, her heart still felt heavy. She cast a glance at Matriarch Chu, and the two sisters went up the stairs to look for Yun Zhengyang.
In the study.
After hearing Madam Yun’s words, Yun Zhengyang was stunned. “Madman’s cursive calligraphy? There are not even ten calligraphy pieces left behind by him, and all of them are currently owned. It’s impossible to purchase them, so how would Jingjing have any? Even we wouldn’t be able to buy them!”
Madam Yun grew anxious. “Then what should we do now? Jingjing definitely said that to help our Yun Family maintain our prestige. Don’t blame her, things were very urgent earlier. We should quickly think of a solution!”
When Shen Ruojing said the words, ‘The Yun Family has one’, Madam Yun actually felt extremely satisfied as she could see the astonished look on Fourth Madam Bai’s face.
Hence, although she knew that the words might be a boast, she wouldn’t blame Shen Ruojing.
Because in the entire event today, only that single sentence managed to maintain the dignity of the Yun Family.
Matriarch Chu listened to their conversation and suddenly stood up. “You guys, wait a moment.”
She walked out to look for Chu Tianye and brought him into Yun Zhengyang’s study.
The little fellow’s eyes were wide open and he looked very adorable with his curly hair. He held Chuyu’s leash in his hand as he lifted his head and asked, “Grandma, Grandaunt, what’s the matter?”
Matriarch Chu asked, “Does your mommy know cursive script?”
Chu Tianye. “?”
The little fellow cocked his head and took out his bank card.
Matriarch Chu immediately looked at Madam Yun. “Give him one million.”
“…” Madam Yun looked at Matriarch Chu speechlessly. “Why don’t you give him the money?”
Matriarch Chu. “I’m helping you guys to ask the question!”
“How petty! What a money grubber!” Madam Yun snorted at Matriarch Chu. She then transferred one million to Chu Tianye. As a result, the little fellow smiled and replied, “A little*!”
He went out after he finished speaking.
Matriarch Chu understood now.
Madam Yun still didn’t understand. “Elder sister, what is the meaning of that?”
Matriarch Chu waved her hands and spoke, “You guys don’t have to worry. Since Jingjing said that, she will definitely deliver her promise.”
However, Madam Yun still didn’t believe it. “How can that be possible? How old is she merely? Sister, you have to use your network to help us search for it. In any case, the Yun Family’s network won’t have any chance of purchasing it!”
“…” Matriarch Chu twitched her lips.
Honestly speaking, if it wasn’t for the fact that she had seen Shen Ruojing performing many miracles many times before, she would also not believe it.
Matriarch Chu could only reassure her sister after seeing how anxious she was. “Don’t worry.”
The Chu Family owned a cursive script calligraphy piece by Zhang Zhi. If Jingjing couldn’t take anything out, she would simply give this to Yun Wei and help Jingjing out of this predicament.
Matriarch Chu then left, and Madam Yun and Yun Zhengyang exchanged glances.
Sometimes later, both of them spoke out at the same time.
“I want to go to the capital!”
“Let’s go to the capital!”
As the sound of their voices faded, Madam Yun smiled. Yun Zhengyang continued, “The Bai Family gave us so many gifts, so our dowry cannot be any lesser. Little Wei’s status isn’t on par with theirs, so we will use her dowry to boost her up. Let us go to the capital so we can search for the calligraphy piece and also help Little Wei to purchase things for her.”
In the past, they had never thought that Yun Wei would marry into a family from the capital, hence, the Yun Family didn’t have any fixed assets in the capital.
In the future, Yun Wei was going to live there. They should go and make some arrangements to help smoothen things.
Madam Yun nodded. “Although Fourth Madam Bai gifted a few properties, we can still purchase two more for Little Wei. If not, in the future when we want to visit her in the capital and stay overnight, could it be that we have to stay in a property that the Bai Family gifted her? In addition, Little Wei is going there to get to know their family members in two days. We might as well stay for a few days there!”
“Sure!”
Hence, on the second morning…
When Shen Ruojing, Shen Qianhui, and Jing Zhen brought the two kids and dog along, preparing to bid farewell to Matriarch Chu, Madam Yun, and the rest, they saw that the other group was also dragging along their luggage.
Everyone was speechless.
Matriarch Chu’s gaze had hints of evasion, and she didn’t dare to look straight into Shen Ruojing’s eyes. She coughed and wanted to say something but had no idea what she should say.
Shen Ruojing understood. “You are going to the capital?”
Matriarch Chu subconsciously blurted, “You already know?”
Shen Ruojing. “…”
Matriarch Chu heaved a sigh of relief. After that, she grew angry and scolded, “Chu Cichen is a rascal. He secretly went to the capital alone before telling us about it. He even wants me to go over and help him. Given his attitude, why should we do so? But do you know what? He actually already shifted the Chu Corporation and the people of the Chu Manor to the capital. If I return to Sea City now, everything there will be like an empty shell. I’m so angry that I feel like I want to die! Our Chu Corporation has always been doing well in Sea City, so I really have no idea what he is thinking and why he feels like he has to develop in the capital no matter what…”
Shen Ruojing suddenly thought of how she had overheard Matriarch Chu scolding Chu Cichen on the phone last night. So, the reason was this.
She then thought about how he had informed Matriarch Chu of his decision directly, not seeking her mother out for a discussion. But when he spoke to Shen Ruojing, his tone was always cautious and gentle…
Shen Ruojing quietly sighed.
Matriarch Chu took the chance to add. “Oh right. Jingjing, he already purchased a house in the capital. Since you are going over, why don’t you bring the kids there?”
“…Okay then.”
In any case, Shen Ruojing had to look for Chu Cichen to ask him for the truth.
Matriarch Chu then laughed sneakily. “In that case, I won’t tell him about this first. Let’s give him a surprise later on!”
The group of them then drove off together in their cars.
An hour later, they arrived at the capital. Because Shen Qianhui and Jing Zhen had to stay in the hotel room that the filming crew rented, while Matriarch Chu, Madam Yun, and the others agreed to stay at Chu Cichen’s place in the capital, they decided to split into two groups.
The roads in the capital were often jammed. Hence, Shen Ruojing’s group drove for another one and half hours before they arrived at Chu Cichen’s place.
Shen Ruojing had originally thought that Chu Cichen would purchase a small house for temporary residence. However, she didn’t expect that they would actually arrive at a manor!
The size was not in any way inferior compared to the Chu Manor of Sea City.
After driving in, they discovered that the renovation and decorations weren’t something that could be completed in a year or two. This meant that Chu Cichen had already been planning to relocate their corporation for a few years.
So, that man had long intended to shift the Chu Family to the capital, and this wasn’t something he decided on a whim.
After parking their cars, a butler walked out. “Matriarch, you guys must have had a tough journey!”
As she saw the familiar face, Matriarch Chu sighed. “Are all the servants here already?”
The butler smiled. “One-third of the servants were reluctant to relocate, so they didn’t follow us. However, those you are familiar with have decided to come after Mr. Chu promised them that they could bring their families over!”
Shen Ruojing didn’t care about Matriarch Chu catching up with the butler. She directly entered and saw Chu Xiaomeng hugging her dinosaur soft toy, running toward her with joy. “Mommy, you are here!”
Shen Ruojing patted her daughter’s head. “Where’s your daddy?”
“He is in the study room upstairs!”
[1] Chu Tianye used the word 亿 instead of 一. Both words have the same pronunciation but 亿 means 100 million while 一 means one. He meant that Shen Ruojing actually knows a lot about calligraphy.
