Chapter 44 – Breakfast
Fu Wu Tian's mother died when he was ten years old.
His father, Fu Xiao, spent his whole life on the battlefield, where he experienced both triumph and defeat. And his mother was a strange woman. She was not a gentle woman. Her character was very bold. She was not a citizen of Da Ya. Rumor has it that Fu Xiao brought her back from Guan Wai, and then the two got married not long after.

Fu Xiao was in Guan Wai all year round, and his wife stayed with him in Guan Wai. When Fu Xiao died, she was not reluctant to let him go. She only left behind a few words, and then she followed Fu Xiao.
These were all things that An Zi Ran heard about before he married into the Fu palace.
Nowadays, only Fu Wu Tian and Fu lao wang ye, the two of them, were left behind to manage the Fu palace. The first day after marriage, one must honor the elder in-laws with a cup of tea. Since Fu Wu Tian's parents were no longer alive, the only elder left to honor was Fu lao wang ye.
Passing through the corridor, the two arrived at the lobby.
Fu lao wang ye had already woken up. At the moment, he was sitting in the main seat and drinking the hot tea poured by a servant. In the empty lobby there was only him and the servant serving him.
When he saw them coming into the lobby, Fu lao wang ye immediately put down the teacup and stared straight at them.
Seeing that appearance, An Zi Ran's instincts told him that Fu lao wang ye was not in a clear state of mind. Fu Wu Tian must've deliberately taken advantage of the lao wang ye's condition to get him to agree to let his grandson take a man for his wife. If the lao wang ye was not sick, An Zi Ran did not believe that he would agree.
[The two knelt down before Fu lao wang ye.]
The servant came forward with a tray. An Zi Ran took the cup of tea from the tray and presented it to Fu lao wang ye. "Grandfather, please drink tea."
Fu lao wang ye received the cup of tea with a smile. He took a sip and then said, "My granddaughter-in-law is really good*." Then he stuffed a red envelope into An Zi Ran's hands. It was thin and didn't seem heavy. Later, An Zi Ran found that it was a ten thousand yuan bill. The generous amount surprised him.
[*T/N: The grandfather uses the term 乖 guai, which means "obedient or well-behaved." It can sound a little patronizing in English, but in Chinese it's meant as praise, usually from someone of higher seniority to someone of lower seniority. So I like to translate it as "good" sometimes.]
An Zi Ran deliberately ignored the address of 'granddaughter-in-law.' Without a change in his expression he received the red envelope and then thanked him.

Fu Wu Tian also honored his grandfather with a cup of tea, but the lao wang ye was less enthusiastic about his own grandson.
When they got up, An Zi Ran heard Fu lao wang ye said to his grandson with a smug tone of voice, "Wu Tian ah, you didn't waste the good intoxication wine that grandfather brought out. You really didn't let your grandfather down. But I heard from the servants that you were doing it very intensely last night. It is only the first day, you have to take care not to let your wife get too worn out."
Intoxication wine?
Could it be the wine that he drank last night?
An Zi Ran immediately looked at Fu Wu Tian only to see him say, "Grandfather, I know what I am doing."
