Chapter 3822
This made her run out in surprise and ask," Dad, Charlie, where's Mom?"
Jacob grunted twice and casually said, "Your mother went for a facial with Hannah Queen."
"Huh?!" Claire was dumbfounded as she asked, "Since when did Mom start hanging out with Hannah Queen?"
Jacob laughed and said, "Isn't it because Wendy brought Hannah back the last time? Your mother fought with your grandmother in front of her house. Since then, the two daughters-in-law seem to have resolved two or three decades of conflicts. The both of them started chatting on WhatsApp for a few days, and it seem as though your mother gave Hannah a few tips to teach her how to deal with your grandmother. The both of them have become good friends ever since."
As Jacob spoke of this, he smacked his lips and said, "Tsk... Can you believe that the both of them have become good friends now?"
Claire shook her head helplessly and smiled as she said, "Although it might sound strange, this is also a good thing. Mom usually does not have many friends, and her leg has gotten injured one time after the other, rendering her unable to go out for most of the year. If she can have fun and get along with Hannah now, it can also be considered a way for her to relieve her boredom."
Jacob sighed emotionally and said, "Oh, it could be said that way, but I constantly feel that your grandmother will suffer now that the both of them have become good friends. Your grandmother is already an old woman of about eighty to ninety years old. She has no money or power but now, she will have to deal with the both of them..."
Claire spread out her hands and sighed as she said, "This is not something we can worry about. Grandma also used to be a little too much in the past, so if she has a hard time, we cannot really do anything to help her."
Jacob nodded and said casually, "That's also true..."
After saying that, Jacob took the initiative to pick up the teapot and refill a cup of tea for Charlie as he said attentively, "My dear son-in-law, tell me a little more about Feng Shui and the Book of Changes and the Eight Diagrams. It would be best if it's those that I do not need to study for long and can learn all about it now."
Claire asked curiously, "Dad, when did you start studying Feng Shui?"
Jacob laughed and said, "Hehehe.
Aren't I going to Korea to engage in the exchange program soon? Most of Korea's traditional culture originated from our country, and isn't their national flag also a symbol of our eight trigrams? Since I want to represent the Aurous Hill cultural sector, I cannot show any weakness I in Korea. I want to learn some knowledge from Charlie now. When I head to Korea and meet with the Korean representatives there, I want to point at their venues and have a chat with them to stun them directly so that they will all be in awe and exclaim 'Mr. Wilson, you're so awesome!' when they see me."
Claire did not expect that her father would be chatting about the Book of Changes and the Eight Diagrams with Charlie just because he wanted to show off in Korea.
So, she said helplessly, "Dad, it takes a long time to learn and accumulate this kind of traditional academic. You're cramming everything in within such a short period of time, you might end up embarrassing yourself instead of being able to show off when the time comes!" Jacob hurriedly said, "That's why I have to talk to Charlie! I'm not a professional, but Charlie is still a professional after all!
When the time comes, Charlie can give me a standard answer directly, and I can just memorize it, right?"
Charlie said awkwardly, "Dad, if you want a standard answer, you have to give me the test question, at the very least. I do not even know what the question is now. So, how can I give you the answer that you're asking for? You want the test questions, right?" As Jacob spoke, he pulled out his cell phone and opened a pdf format document of the introduction information.
After that, he handed the cell phone over to Charlie and said seriously, "My dear son-in-law, take a look at this. This is the introduction of the main venue where they will be holding the cultural exchange in Korea. There are very detailed pictures as well as the floor plans on it. See if you can pick out even the slightest fault on the Feng Shui for them."
After that, Jacob then took out an A4 paper that had been folded three times from his pocket. After opening it, it was a picture of a man in his fifties as well as a brief introduction on him.
Jacob handed the A4 paper over to
Charlie and said, "My dear
son-in-law, this is the
person-in-charge of the cultural
exchange. Take a good look at his face and use his birth date to
Tell
calculate his divination for him. me if he is going to face a catastrophe or something and if so, how he would be able to avoid it so that I can show off my skills in front of him!"
