Reborn in the 1980s, remarried and followed a soldier, the ungrateful wretch cried with regret.

Chapter 21 You went back on your word?

Fu's mother glared at her irritably.

"If you go to university, what am I supposed to do with you? Just freeload? Besides, I can retire in a few more years, why would I give up my job?"

"Besides, everything in big cities costs money. Aren't you going to kill me?"

"Also, if I leave, won't that family take our house?"

Fu Mingxue knew the result.

But she was still a little upset when her own mother rejected her.

After all, she really didn't want to be separated from her biological mother.

"Mom, what if I find you a job in Beijing? Would you go?"

Fu's mother gave her a disapproving look.

"It seems your brain is only suited for studying."

"Our jobs are all one person per position, so are jobs in Beijing really that easy to find?"

"Besides, so many educated youths who returned to the city are already having trouble finding jobs, how can you expect an older outsider like me to get a job first?"

"Okay, let's eat."

Fu Mingxue: ...

Forget it, I'll bring it up again once she's established herself in Beijing—Mom will definitely agree then.

However, this meal was not a very pleasant one for the mother and daughter.

The door was pounded on again.

Fu's mother's face turned green.

What the hell are they all trying to do? Are they not even letting them eat?
They all come over at mealtimes. Do they not have enough food at home and can't afford to eat?
Huo De stood up, his face full of murderous intent.

"I'm going to see who's here."

Fu Mingxue quickly put down her chopsticks and followed.
When Madam Fu opened the door, she saw the Bai family mother and daughter, along with Song Yan.

The three of them looked extremely displeased. Ignoring their expressions, Madam Fu immediately launched into a loud tirade: "What are you doing here? Don't you know it's very impolite to disturb someone's meal?"

"Xu Zifeng, how dare you even mention dinner? You took so much money from us and made us apologize in public, and now you're going back on your word—" Bai's mother was furious.

"Hey, Qu Hongdan, you need evidence to back up your words. How did I go back on my word?" Fu's mother glared at her. "If we went back on our word, would you still be standing here talking to your mother like this?"

"You, you—" Bai's mother was so angry that she choked on her words.

Song Yan then spoke up: "Auntie, you said back then that the case was closed and we wouldn't pursue it anymore, so what's with the police investigating? Isn't that going back on your word?"

Fu's mother gets angry whenever she sees him now.

"Pah, don't call me 'auntie,' I don't have a nephew like you. Besides, those are two different things. We're not going to pursue the matter of you fraudulently claiming and stealing my daughter's university admission notice, not the matter of pushing my daughter into the river."

"What, you've come all this way in such a hurry to demand an explanation? Did you really push my daughter into the river?"

Fu Mingxue had never realized that her mother was so terrifyingly strong.

Awesome!

Looking at the three people outside the door with their extremely frustrated faces, she felt incredibly refreshed.

Bai Siqi and her daughter, along with Song Yan, were indeed extremely distressed.

The expression on his face looked like he'd eaten shit.

He got stuck there, unable to go up or down.

They really didn't expect to fall for this mother and daughter's trick.

Unfortunately, they are currently unable to refute it.

Song Yan couldn't hold back any longer: "Auntie, didn't Fu Mingxue fall into the river on her own? Don't you know that if you make things up without evidence, it's slander—"

"Pah! I told you not to call me 'auntie,' are you deaf, you big man? Besides, whether it's slander or not, we'll bear the consequences ourselves. Why are you worrying about it? Or are you worrying on behalf of the person who harmed us?"

Song Yan's face instantly darkened.
