Free Web NovelChapter 51: Chapter 51: This Silly Girl, Didn’t She Realize I Was Causing a Scene on Purpose?
In stark contrast to the warmth between the three of them, everyone in the Fu family was furious.
Old Mrs. Fu cursed and grumbled for ages.
Old Man Fu’s expression was just as grim.
But he knew deep down that this time, his second son’s family was truly determined to cut ties with them.
The last time the mother and daughter from that branch of the family had caused a huge scene was two years ago.
That was also over the matter of being sent to the countryside.
They had originally planned to secretly sign Fu Mingxue up to be sent to the countryside.
Who would have thought that just as they arrived at the Educated Youth Office to fill out the forms, the mother and daughter would storm in.
The uproar they caused back then nearly tore the roof off the place.
Left with no choice, they had to scrap the idea of having Fu Mingxue go to the countryside in place of their grandsons.
This time, it probably wouldn’t end so peacefully.

Third Brother Fu and his family had also returned to their own home.
Listening to the shouting from next door, the expressions on their faces weren’t too pleasant either.
"I don’t know what kind of luck that girl Fu Mingxue stumbled into, finding a husband that good."
Bian Yuqiao was practically dripping with jealousy. frёeωebɳovel.com
She’d gotten a very clear look at that man from before.
Never mind his good looks; his sheer presence was intimidating enough. Anyone with eyes could see he was no ordinary man.
With him around from now on, who would dare to look down on that widow, Xu Zifeng, and her daughter?
’Why couldn’t a son-in-law that good be hers?’
Third Brother Fu pursed his lips, saying nothing.
He was jealous, too.
He wanted a son-in-law like that, too.
"From now on, don’t side with Eldest Sister-in-law. You should get closer with Second Sister-in-law. That girl, Mingxue, is going to be very successful in the future."
He’d never expected that his niece would not only get into university, but also marry such an excellent man.
Bian Yuqiao rolled her eyes at him. "You think I need you to tell me that?"
’She was just jealous, not stupid.’
’From now on, she would definitely have to get on good terms with Fu Mingxue and her mother.’
’The girl is going to university. After she graduates, she’s guaranteed to be a government official.’
’She might even be able to work and get her household registration in Beijing City.’
’On top of that, Fu Mingxue married a good man. If she didn’t try to get on their good side and instead went looking for trouble, she’d have to be completely out of her mind.’
’She could certainly tell the difference between taking small advantages and securing a huge one.’
’After all, she had a son to think about!’
Glancing over at her daughter, who was standing there in a dumb daze, her eyes filled with disgust.
"You’re both from the Fu family, so how come she’s so accomplished while you’re worse than her in every way?"
Fu Mingya’s expression turned ugly.
’Sure, their daughter is accomplished, but have you seen how much her mother dotes on her?’
But she didn’t dare say it.
Seeing her daughter standing there like a block of wood, Bian Yuqiao grew more and more irritated.
"What are you standing there gawking for? Hurry up and make dinner!"
With a dark expression, Fu Mingya headed for the small kitchen.
—
"You’re going to the Fu family’s house? I’ll go with you."
Mrs. Fu really didn’t feel comfortable letting her wonderful son-in-law go alone.
Not a single person in the Fu family was any good.
Qin Wenhao immediately said, "Mom, there’s no need. I can go by myself. Don’t worry, I can handle this." fɾeewebnoveℓ.co๓
Mrs. Fu: ...?
She wasn’t at ease in the slightest.
Qin Wenhao shot a look at Fu Mingxue, who was standing to the side.
He was signaling for her to talk her mother down.
Fu Mingxue happened to be looking his way, so she caught his meaningful glance.
"Mom, just let him go! Besides, if you go along, another fight is bound to break out. I know you’re not afraid to argue with them, but it’s just not worth it!"
Mrs. Fu: ...?
’This silly girl. Can’t she tell I’m trying to cause a scene on purpose? This way, we might be able to cut them off for good.’
Since both of them were telling her not to go, she decided against it.
It wasn’t as if she absolutely had to cause a ruckus today.
"All right, then. Son-in-law, when you go over there, don’t you be polite with them."
"Okay."
"Mingxue, you go with your husband."
Fu Mingxue: ...?
’Why does she want me to go?’
’She didn’t want to go to the old family house at all.’
