Chapter 244 Fu Yu's Background

"..." everyone.

"???" Fu Yu.

After everyone saw it clearly, they all burst into laughter.

Fu Yu's heavy mood seemed to lighten considerably.

He watched as Fang Zhengnan and Grandma Qiao brought out three plates of brown sugar glutinous rice cakes from the kitchen.

Then look at Qiao Qiao.

Thinking that her biological father was someone like Shen Qingyan, she realized that he might actually be able to help her.

As if she had made up her mind, she said to Qiao Changdong, "Uncle Qiao, I can tell you, but let my sister finish breakfast first. The matter is complicated and I can't explain it clearly in a short time."

As soon as Fu Yu finished speaking, the little figure in the bubble put down the ruler that had been pointing and gesturing, with a deep expression.

With an "I'm a promising student" look, she patted the forehead of the [Fu Yu] puppet inside the bubble, and even stroked the non-existent beard on her chin with her little hand, as if she were very pleased.

"Okay." Qiao Changdong nodded, suppressing a laugh.

The others laughed too.

The atmosphere was exceptionally cheerful early in the morning.

Breakfast consisted of fried brown sugar glutinous rice cakes and sweet rice wine.

The fried brown sugar glutinous rice cake is one of Qiao Qiao's favorite foods.

This is something you can usually only eat during the winter months because brown sugar glutinous rice cakes require glutinous rice flour.

In Hongfeng Town, glutinous rice is only harvested during the late rice season, making it more precious than japonica rice. People simply can't bear to eat it except during the Lunar New Year.

Making brown sugar glutinous rice cakes is not difficult either.

Simply mix glutinous rice flour with an appropriate amount of warm water until smooth, knead into a smooth dough, roll into a ball, flatten, and fry over low heat until golden brown on both sides after the oil is hot.

Dip it in some melted brown sugar syrup, and it becomes sweet and crispy on the outside and soft and chewy on the inside. The taste is simply amazing.

Even Qiao Qiao, who has a small appetite, ate two in one go.

Not to mention the other kids, the three dishes that were served were devoured in less than a minute.

Fang Zhengnan and Grandma Qiao were frying in the kitchen.

It still couldn't keep up with their eating speed.

When Fang Zhengnan brought out another plate, she was stunned for a moment when she saw the three plates that were already empty. She couldn't help but laugh and scold, "You two are really eating your father out of house and home! How can you eat so much!"

That's what they said, but their actions didn't slow down.

This brown sugar glutinous rice cake really can't be eaten slowly; if you eat it too slowly and it gets cold, it won't taste the same.

After the family had eaten and drunk their fill, they gathered around the charcoal brazier to warm themselves.

After the meal, Qiao Qiao also took the opportunity to feed some golden fruit to everyone in the family.

Then the whole family, with unusually clear minds, listened as Fu Yu told him about his background.

They finally understood why Fu Yu preferred to say he was an orphan and had no family rather than go back.

The man and woman that Qiao Qiao and the others met at the hotel were Xiang Jiajia, Fu Yu's biological mother, and Fu Tengfei.

But the man was not Fu Yu's biological father, but his second uncle, or step-uncle, the son of his grandfather Fu Yihui's later wife.

Fu Yu's father, Fu Yingting, disappeared the year he was born.

Unsure of whether he is alive or dead.

The mother, Xiang Jiajia, had somehow become involved with Fu Tengfei.

Fu Yu's grandfather just passed away last year.

He left all his inheritance to Fu Yu.

Although Fu Yu was young, he knew that it was a great fortune. His grandfather had shares in many of the top factories and enterprises in Shanghai.

Xiang Jiajia and Fu Tengfei plotted to kill Fu Yu in order to obtain the inheritance.

Yes.

Fu Yu's mother, his own mother, actually wanted to kill him!

Their original plan was to take advantage of Fu Yugang's loss of his grandfather and take him on a trip to relax, then push him into the sea on the cruise ship to create the illusion of an accidental death.

However, Fu Yu overheard this and was caught by Fu Tengfei while trying to escape.

Fu Tengfei was afraid that he would go around talking nonsense, so he wanted to take the opportunity to suffocate him. His biological mother, Xiang Jiajia, saw this from the side, but instead of stopping him, she helped suppress him at Fu Tengfei's urging...

How ridiculous!

Later, taking advantage of the moment when the two men were off guard after Fu Yu faked his death, he kicked the man in his most vulnerable spot and escaped.

Unexpectedly, he was so unlucky. He had just escaped the wolf's den and was exhausted when he was targeted by human traffickers. They drugged him and put him in a burlap sack.

When she woke up again, she had already been sold to that small mountain village.

"You'll know what happened next. You saved me." Fu Yu raised his eyes and looked at the Qiao family. At this moment, he no longer concealed the deep-seated hatred in his eyes.

"That's why I wasn't lying when I said I was an orphan and had no family," Fu Yu said. "A woman like that doesn't deserve to be my mother!"

How can someone who wants to murder his own mother with his lover be considered family?

He couldn't even appear in front of those two people before he grew up and became powerful, otherwise he would face certain death.

The Qiao family fell silent.

Qiao Qiao also fell silent.

No one expected it to turn out this way.

What kind of twisted humanity does this mother possess to help outsiders kill her own son?

Although Qiao Qiao had guessed that there must be a reason why Fu Yu refused to say where he was from and insisted that he had no relatives, she never expected it to be this reason.

Is this mother crazy?

Qiao Qiao asked Xiao Yuan in her mind, "Xiao Yuan, this world must be broken, right? It must be."

As a chosen one, must he have such a tragic background?

Jiang Shengnan from Baoyi City is another example. She is destined to be a child of good fortune, yet she was given such a tragic childhood.

There was also Feng Cheng, who had visited their home before. According to her uncle, her parents divorced, her grandparents passed away, and she was eventually sent to her second uncle's home in Taipei.

And her too.

Her mother was a child of exceptional destiny, her father was also a child of destiny, and her grandmother was also a child of destiny, yet she was born as cannon fodder who had her heart and kidneys ripped out?

That's very illogical.

She felt like the world had broken down.

It was as if the whole world was paving the way for the two sisters.

"In the original book, what connection did Fu Yu have with those two sisters?"

Fu Yu was someone Shen Li had feelings for.

Do they know each other?

[Probably not. In the original work, the two never interacted; he only existed in Shen Li's past memories, and there wasn't much writing about him.]

After hearing what Fu Yu said, the Qiao family didn't know how to comfort him.

Qiao Changdong sighed, reached out and patted Fu Yu's shoulder, saying, "Don't worry, I'll take care of you. I won't go back on my word about adopting you. It's just that your household registration might be a little troublesome."

The fact that Fu Tengfei and Xiang Jiajia were able to find Baoyi City from Haishi shows that they have some ability or connections. Their next step may be to find Hongfeng Town.

Qiao Changdong couldn't let things continue like this. After finishing breakfast, he put on his military uniform and went to town with his little one in his arms.
