The people in the house could hear the noise in the courtyard.
Old Master Ji was not in a good mood today because he had been thinking of his daughter. When he heard the noise in the courtyard, he walked to the window and saw the two kids chasing each other and laughing.
The butler stood beside him and explained, “Xiaowen was the one who started the argument.”
Old Master Ji quietly watched for a while and said faintly, “This child, Xiaonuan, does have a little tiger in her!”
The butler said, “If she didn’t, how could she end up marrying the young master?”
One had a tiger-like personality, and the other was nicknamed “Big Tiger.” They were made for each other. People often said that there was no room for two tigers on the same mountain, unless one was male and the other was female.
Old Master Ji watched them for a long time. He watched his grandson get beaten to the ground by his daughter-in-law. His grandson had stopped running and was waving his hands in surrender.
Feng Qi also saw her son getting beaten up. She only took a glance, then went to do other things.
After getting beaten up, Ji Wen could only obediently bring Fang Xiaonuan to choose another car. “Choose your husband’s car, not ours.”
Fang Xiaonuan snorted disdainfully. She was going to choose her husband’s car anyway. “That black car doesn’t look expensive. Drive it out for me.”
Ji Wen looked in the direction Fang Xiaonuan was pointing in and turned to look at Fang Xiaonuan. “Do you know anything about this car?”
Fang Xiaonuan was stunned for a moment and shook her head. If the question had been about boxing, she would have had no problem providing an answer. However, she did not know much about cars.
Fang Xiaonuan said, “There are two W’s. What brand is that?”
Ji Wen was on the verge of breaking down. He pulled Fang Xiaonuan to the front of the car. “Take a good look.”
Fang Xiaonuan lowered her head and looked at the car logo. “Eh, there’s a ‘V’ on the top, a ‘W’ on the bottom, and then a row of letters. What is it?”
Ji Wen expression was exasperated. “Do you not know this brand at all?”
Fang Xiaonuan nodded and said, “I’ve seen many cars on the streets with this logo before. It shouldn’t be very expensive.”
Ji Wen said, “Xiaonuan, remember this logo. This car is Phaeton!”
Fang Xiaonuan nodded as if she understood. “Is this car more expensive than my husband’s Maybach?”
Ji Wen said, “No. This car is only about 1 million yuan.”
Fang Xiaonuan immediately sized up the car in front of her. “Xiaowen, did your uncle get cheated by someone when he bought this car?”
Ji Wen said, “You’re really hopeless.”
Ji Wen looked at the cars in the garage and finally said with a sigh, “However, you have good taste. Considering the cars’ price points, this is the most suitable car in our garage for you to practice with.”
After finding the car keys, Ji Wen said, “Okay, it’s decided. Work hard. By the time my uncle comes back, this car should have a lot of scratches.”
In the evening, Mayor Ji came home from work. When he saw the crushed flowers by the pond, he asked the maid in confusion, “How did the flowers become like this?”
The maid said, “The young madam was learning how to drive today. She ran over them.”
Mayor Ji fell silent. Then, he saw that the fountain in the courtyard was surrounded by guardrails. “Why are there guardrails here?”
The maid said, “The young madam is learning to drive. The young master asked for these.”
Mayor Ji walked into the house and asked again, “Where did everyone go?”
The maid said, “The young madam is still having her driving lesson. Everyone is teaching her in the backyard.”
Mayor Ji:”…”
Not long after, he also went to the backyard.
The backyard, which was usually used for leisure and entertainment, was now full of people.
Old Master Ji, the butler, and his wife were all there, while his son was sitting in the front passenger seat.
There were also some maids standing off to one side and laughing. Mayor Ji asked curiously, “What happened?”
The maids immediately smiled and told him about what Fang Xiaonuan had done while he was gone.
Ji Wen had told her that she could not handle driving on the road. She was unable to keep to one lane. To her, driving was almost a taboo.
Fang Xiaonuan did not feel very good in the car. In addition, she was a little nervous. The more nervous she was, the easier it was for her to make mistakes. Whatever she was afraid of would happen.
Just like in school, if she was afraid the teacher would ask her questions, the teacher always ended up asking her questions. It was a vicious cycle.
After driving the car into the flower bed, Fang Xiaonuan quickly admitted her mistake. Not long after, she almost hit the fountain again and came to a sudden stop.
Old Master Ji was scared out of his wits. The fountain was a Feng Shui fountain that he had hired an expert to build long ago. It was to ensure that the Ji family would prosper for generations and grow. If it was damaged, their legacy would be ruined.
As he watched his daughter-in-law drive, Old Master Ji shouted anxiously, “Xiaonuan, give up on learning how to drive. Come inside and play Fight the Landlord with me. Be good!”
However, Fang Xiaonuan wanted to give her husband a surprise, and nothing could stop her. “Dad, just play by yourself for a while. You can play Happy Bean with my account. My phone is on the sofa.”
How could Old Master Ji be in the mood to play? He was scared out of his wits.
At that moment, Fang Xiaonuan succeeded in cheering him up. He was not thinking about his daughter, and was only focused on the fountain now.
