Family Rise by Daily Intelligence

Chapter 695: Chapter 290: Lifebound Spiritual Artifact, Two More Sons, Gu Dao Inheritance (Part 2)

When Fu Changsheng left.

Liu Yunfeng tugged Fu Yongrui and said:

”Husband, Father gave both Kang’er and me a gift when he arrived. Just now, when I was in the kitchen, I opened it and found he gifted me a Tier Two Spiritual Peach, while Kang’er received the Hushen Beads. This gift is akin to what Sister-in-law Jade Lotus received upon entering.”

Liu Yunfeng was deeply moved.

From this,

it’s clear that Father truly sees us as his own children.

Fu Yongrui pulled Yunfeng into his embrace, silently vowing to repay his father’s kindness once he achieved something significant.

...

Elsewhere,

when Fu Changsheng left the bamboo grove courtyard,

an all-too-familiar mechanical voice suddenly resonated in his sea of divine sense:

”Ding”

”You gifted Fu Yongrui an opportunity to enter the Shadow Sect, a bottle of Foundation Establishment Liquid, and Liu Yunfeng a Tier Two Spiritual Peach. Through these gestures, they’ve felt the love from you as a father, gradually integrating into the Fu Family, earning you fifty clan contribution points.”

In the next instant,

the clan contribution points on the panel instantly updated to five hundred and seventy.

Fu Changsheng left the bamboo grove courtyard as night fell, planning to call on Ningning the next day to head to the Yu Family’s fief together. He planned to meet up with Qingru first; Yaoyao was unwilling to go to the Yu Family, so she intended to head to the Blood-colored Forbidden Area first to gauge the situation.

Ningning had left the Yu Family for many years.

This was her first return, and upon learning the news last night, she was too excited to sleep. Thanks to the mana repulsion assistance from the Wood Flying Squirrel, Ningning had successfully surged to the peak of Qi Cultivation.

However, the mana cultivation gained.

Fu Changsheng was concerned about her unstable foundation, advising her to first refine the mana to its purest form. After a few years, when the batch of Foundation Establishment Pills from the Yellow Stone Medicine Garden matured, it wouldn’t be too late for her to establish her foundation.

After all, Ningning was just in her early twenties.

All the way,

Ningning couldn’t stop chattering with joy.

Upon reaching the Yu Family’s fief’s mountain gate.

There stood Yu Qingru, along with An’an and a pair of six-year-old boys, all waiting early, along with several Yu clan members behind them.

Upon seeing Fu Changsheng appear.

Everyone hurriedly saluted, collectively saying in unison:

”Welcome, dear Patriarch.”

Fu Changsheng was unaccustomed to being worshipped, and with a flick of his sleeve, a wave of majestic spiritual power instantly lifted everyone.

Seeing this,

Yu Qingru was taken aback.

Years without seeing, her husband’s abilities were nearly akin to the Purple Mansion.

Fu Changsheng exchanged pleasantries with several Foundation Establishment Elders from the Yu Family, then took his wife and children to the Patriarch’s Mansion. After Yu Qingru was pregnant with twins, An’an had been managing the fief’s miscellaneous affairs for the subsequent years.

Initially, Yu Qingru was worried that her young son wouldn’t be able to hold the fort.

But over the years.

She discovered that her son was far more suited for the position of patriarch.

Thus, after the family dined,

when only the couple remained in the room, Yu Qingru said:

”Husband, I want to discuss with you.....”

Before she could finish,

her mouth was blocked.

With a flick of Fu Changsheng’s sleeve, the bed curtains fell:

”Qingru....”

The husky voice echoed in the room.

This battle persisted until dawn. The sensible nursemaid didn’t send the twins to Yu Qingru’s courtyard no matter how much they clamored.

By midday.

Only then did Fu Changsheng let Yu Qingru go.

Were it not for the urgency to head to the Blood-colored Forbidden Area, he wouldn’t have considered stopping after seven days and nights.

Yu Qingru gave Fu Changsheng a playful scolding.

Last night, she learned that her husband hadn’t engaged in relations since she got pregnant with the second child, which made her happy.

Though she hadn’t entered any sects.

Her husband had only been with two women ever.

Despite many beauties throwing themselves at him, he remained pure, which she was quite pleased with.

The two cuddled for a bit longer.

Then Fu Changsheng said:

”Qingru, you mentioned there’s something important to discuss with me, what is it?”

Upon hearing this, Yu Qingru disentangled herself from Fu Changsheng’s embrace, tidied her hair, and solemnly said:

”Husband, now that An’an can manage on his own, and oversees the fief better than I do, I’m thinking of arranging a marriage for him. Once he’s married, he can officially take over the patriarch’s position.”

An’an has excellent talent and aptitude for cultivation, and since he’s capable of managing affairs, Yu Qingru didn’t want to compromise too much on his marriage partner, planning to find a bride from a family that could help support the Yu Family.

Upon hearing Yu Qingru, Fu Changsheng nodded:

”The choice for this marriage alliance indeed requires careful consideration.”

For the Fu Family to advance to Seventh-Grade.

Among the subordinate noble families, one must advance to Eighth-Grade.

With his own son taking charge of the Yu Family, it naturally became the primary focus for support, but solely relying on the Fu Family’s strength was somewhat lacking.

Fu Changsheng pondered for a while:

”Do not rashly arrange An’an’s marriage. After we return from the Blood-colored Forbidden Area, I’ll personally visit the Shi Family.”

Currently, in South Huai Prefecture, there are four Eighth-Grade Noble Families.

He was soon to wed Hongyu, binding the two families together completely. As for the remaining two, the Shi Family and the Nangong Family, the Nangong Family was on the decline. Coupling with them was less favorable than aligning with the emerging Ninth-Grade Cui Family.

Thus, after much thought.

A marriage alliance between An’an and a daughter of the Shi Family was undoubtedly the best choice.

However, he hadn’t interacted much with the Shi Family, and being an old Eighth-Grade family while the Yu Family was merely Ninth-Grade, whether this would succeed was uncertain, requiring a personal visit to assess the situation.

”Husband, rest assured, the elders of the Yu Family know An’an’s marriage needs your nod of approval. They won’t dare act recklessly.”

Yu Qingru assumed her son would likely marry a woman from a Ninth-Grade Noble Family. Learning that a connection could be made with the established Eighth-Grade Shi Family thrilled her, affirming that she had made the right choice years ago.
