Chapter 54

Qiao Yaozu’s action has already made Zhang Fu unhappy. Even Fu Yujing, who loves Zhang Baoer as her own daughter, is quite disappointed with her adopted daughter.

In order to avoid rumors, Zhang Fu and his wife married off their adopted daughter… Even if the couple had not expected this to happen, Zhang Baoer, who had no one to rely on, would have chosen to get married.

No matter who Zhang Baoer marries, she will bury the man.

Meng Jianjun is just right.

A gigolo.

When Zhang Baoer was in power, Meng Jianjun reaped a lot of benefits. Isn’t it time to pay back?

Haha, none of them are good.

Let them fight each other from now on.

By the way…

In order to shut Qiao Yaozu up, Zhang Baoer will definitely need financial support in the future.

How can Zhang Baoer, an unemployed vagrant, get money? Either it’s Zhang Fu and his wife, or your own lover.

Zhang Fu has come to his senses a little and it is impossible for him to help Zhang Baoer forever.

Every time Zhang Baoer, who is married, goes back to her parents’ home, she wastes her time on ties with her adoptive parents. So she should be smart and not always rely on her mother’s family.

And what about Meng Jianjun? Seeing that Zhang Baoer has dealings with her mother’s family, the gigolo will definitely not break up with her in the short term.

There’s something interesting to watch.

…

A few more days passed.

Fu Yujing finally understood Zhang Fu’s anger.

In previous years, the family’s money would be squandered after Zhang Fuyue received his salary at the beginning of the month. The family’s food was either provided by the old man or Fu Yujing tried her luck on the black market.

Only when she had spent one hundred dollars from her savings book in just seven days did she start to feel anxious.

He didn’t get angry with Zhang Fu anymore and went back to the main house at night to ask about work.

“Brother Fu, you haven’t returned to work yet?”

Zhang Fu ran around so much that the soles of his shoes cracked, he got blisters at the corners of his mouth, and his face looked much more haggard.

In the past, he had good food and a good place to live, a lovely wife at home, and harmonious and outstanding children. He felt that his life was perfect.

Now that he was in a difficult situation, Yibi suddenly cleared up and looked at Fu Yujing with more scrutiny.

He was in such a state, but when she came in, she didn’t ask about his recent situation, but asked if he had returned to work?

It’s so good that the adopted daughter can always get a word of concern from her at the first opportunity.

For him, resuming work is the most important thing?

What, does his not returning to work affect her quality of life?

“No.”

Fu Yujing’s eyes became empty, and she couldn’t help but say sadly: “What should we do now? You don’t have a salary, and you will have no money next month. Now there are only two hundred left in the passbook.”

“What?!” Zhang Fu was stunned, “How could it be spent so quickly? It’s only been seven days!”

After the incident where Fu Yujing used the passbook to guarantee Zhang Baoer’s academic qualifications without asking, he didn’t want her to keep the passbook. But he needed money for daily expenses, and he was so busy recently that he couldn’t take care of the little things in life.

Fu Yujing came to guarantee that apart from daily expenses, there would be no additional money, and only then did he hand over the passbook.

I was still careless!

Fu Yujing hesitated and didn’t dare to tell the truth.

When people speak, they always like to remove the negative aspects of themselves and leave others with a good impression of themselves as innocent, kind, etc.

Fu Yujing: “When the malted milk arrived at the store, a ticket was required. Fortunately, I was familiar with the salesperson and she was willing to give me the internal price without a ticket, but the price was a little higher.”

What is the reality? Malted milk was drunk by her and Zhang Baoer. Zhang Fu hadn’t drunk that stuff since he was in junior high school.

The family was obviously in a tight spot. Even if they wanted to buy something, they would buy expensive grains instead of malted milk as snacks.

Fu Yujing: “We are used to eating fine grains, so this time we bought some at the black market…”

Zhang Fu interrupted, “I’m used to eating coarse grains!”

Fu Yujing was startled.

Zhang Fu turned on the desk lamp, took out a pen and paper, slammed them on the desk, and said sternly: “Come, sit down and write down all the expenses.”

“Brother Fu, you also know that I have a bad memory…”

“How can you have such a bad memory for something that happened in seven days? Write it down quickly! Don’t try to fool me, I will reconcile the accounts. Especially the amount of food, how much is eaten, how much is left over, and how much is spent every day, I know all these.”

Men usually don’t take charge of the household, but they know everything very well.

In the past, when his salary was high, he turned a blind eye to the household expenses and his wife’s lavish spending and her unwillingness to save money. But now he has to settle the accounts.

Fu Yujing: …

In fact, the high-priced grain was the second largest expense. She also bought a few pieces of cloth. Although they were defective, she could accept them without a ticket.

She can accept it, but Zhang Fu may not.

Besides, my daughter and I are running out of vanishing cream.

She and her daughter are very wasteful in using vanishing cream.

How useless is it?

People who can afford vanishing cream not only apply it on their faces, but also on their hands, feet, necks and legs…

If vanishing cream wasn’t available in such a small bottle, they would want to apply it all over their bodies.

By midnight, Fu Yujing’s tense nerves were relaxed a lot by fatigue. She yawned, and her tone was no longer cautious, but full of her usual coquettish tone: “Is it okay now?”

Zhang Fu’s forehead was throbbing with veins, and he slammed the table: “Give me the passbook!”

Fu Yujing woke up instantly, and looked at him tremblingly: “Brother Fu…”

Zhang Fu looked at her with cold eyes.

His family was well off, so he naturally enjoyed his wife’s behavior. With that pretty face, he wanted to hold her in high esteem.

After he lost his substance, he came to his senses.

Which of these things she did was done without thinking?

Zhang Fu’s voice was icy cold: “Dad, he fought on the battlefield and got his high position. He was not with me when I was a child. After the founding of the People’s Republic of China, I came home and found that my grandparents had spoiled me and gave me a military-style education.

He said he didn’t care whether I lived or died, unless I changed my temper and returned to the right path.

He even spoke to my grandparents in front of me.

If I became useless, he would remarry. It’s not like he can’t have children. If I was useless, he would abandon me. I didn’t doubt that he was lying. After all, his grandchildren have grown up, and he can put his hopes on them.

Do you understand what I mean?”

Fu Yujing had never seen such a serious husband.

We have been married for so long, and every time I give in, he would coax and deceive me.

To put it bluntly, their decades-long marriage has been like a newlywed one.

Her mind was blank and she shook her head.

Zhang Fu’s veins popped out, “Okay, I’ll be straight to the point. We can’t rely on my dad in the future. If we lose our jobs, we will be kicked out of this courtyard. We won’t have a place to live and will have to live on 200 yuan! How long do you think we can hold on?!”

Fu Yujing thought for a moment and said, “Don’t we still have Zhang Zhan and Zhang Zhou?”

Does she still want to rely on her two sons?

Zhang Fu felt so angry that the bubbles on his mouth were about to burst.

“I can’t contact Zhang Zhou, but Zhang Zhan…he did reply and said he won’t give us money unless we reach retirement age.”

“We are his biological parents!”

Yes, biological parents.

But Zhang Zhan and Zhang Zhou were raised in a free-range manner since childhood, and all their money was spent on Zhang Baoer.

To what extent were the two brothers left to their own devices?

When I was a child, my older brother would pass on his clothes to my younger brother, with two sets for spring and summer, and two sets for autumn and winter.

On the other hand, Zhang Baoer has a closet full of clothes.

The two children were not deprived of food, otherwise Zhang Zhan and Zhang Zhou would not have grown so tall. But they have had no snacks or pocket money since they were young.

Zhang Baoer? Malted milk, candy and chocolate are daily necessities. He is still drinking milk powder at the age of 18. Not to mention luxury items such as vanishing cream, hair bands, hairpins, leather shoes, watches, etc.

If the old man hadn’t intervened, one would have been sent to the army for training, and the other would have been hired into the confidentiality department since he was smart since childhood. I guess growing up in such a family, they would have gone astray sooner or later!

“Enough! How do you treat them and Zhang Baoer differently? Do I need to go through all these years of accounts one by one? Be quiet when you’ve had enough of the trouble! Stop it!”

If Fu Yujing hadn’t given birth to children for him, the couple’s decades of love…

Alas.
