Fu Wen, who was splashed, felt suffocated. It was as if it wasn't water that was splashed, but a wall that had hit her face and was causing her pain. She couldn't help but scream.

Seeing that Fu Wen was about to hit someone, Fu Minghao shouted, "Enough!"

Fu Wen lost control: "Dad! Zhu Fanfan hit me! Aren't you going to do anything about it? Aren't you the one who values ​​rules the most?"

Fu Minghao looked at Luo Yushu, who immediately pulled Fu Wen away: "Dad, Fu Wen is not in a good mood. Don't worry about it. I'll take her home right away."

According to the old custom, the daughters of the Fu family have no share in the family property. It is because the Fu family only has daughters and no sons that the property is given to them.

He knew that his father-in-law had always disliked his sons-in-law and wanted to donate the family property to the state. Especially during the period of public-private partnership, when the factory was to be handed over, it was the mayor who persuaded him to keep his shares. Later, the mayor met with him several times and valued his father-in-law highly. This angered his father-in-law, and he was really capable of donating all the family property.

As for Zhu Fanfan, he didn't take it to heart. It was just a splash of water, it didn't hurt, but his pride couldn't take it. He could just find a time when no one was around and teach the little girl a lesson to vent his anger.

Seeing that everyone had quieted down, he said, "You don't want the savings book anymore? If you keep making a fuss, I'll donate every single penny and won't give it to you."

Everyone finally held their breath and stopped talking. Fu Minghao handed the bankbook to his four daughters and Zhu Fanfan.

Zhu Fanfan was stunned when she saw the number on the bankbook. It was 120,000 yuan. This was in 1959. An ordinary worker's salary was only 36 yuan. It would take more than 300 years to save up that amount without eating or drinking. And this was only one-eighteenth of that.

To everyone's surprise, Fu Wen refused to listen: "Dad, this is just the profit after the public-private partnership. Why weren't the previous profits distributed?"

Fu Minghao knew this question would come: "Have you forgotten what I just said? Before the founding of the People's Republic of China, I converted all my family property into grain, penicillin, and guns and ammunition, and sent them to the Red Army through connections. After the founding of the People's Republic of China, when the country was in difficulty, I used my connections to find people to import production lines and donated them to the country free of charge. The rest is all in these savings accounts. You know all this, and you are the last person who should ask this question."

Fu Wen knew this, but she also knew that her father was not a selfless person. Even if he were to contribute his family fortune, he would leave himself an escape route and would not give it all away.

Fu Minghao pointed to the gate and said, "Everything has been explained. You can all leave now! If Fu Jing wants to stay here, she can stay with Yaozu for a couple of days. Zhao Di and the others still have to go to school, and it's a bit far from school, so it's inconvenient for them to stay."

Since Fu Jing wants to get in touch with Fanfan, preventing them from meeting is not the solution. He can make Fu Jing face reality: Fanfan is already a child of the Zhu family, and she has nothing to do with Fu Jing anymore.

Luo Yushu bid farewell to Fu Wen, saying, "Father-in-law, we won't bother you any longer. We'll take our leave now."

Tang Guanyu also took his leave: "Father-in-law, I will bring Wanwan to apologize again later."

His father-in-law still didn't give them a friendly look, which he understood. After all, he was busy and Wanwan was busy too, and the two of them didn't have time to come back to see the elders. It was normal for the elders to have opinions.

Fu Xian and her husband also took their leave, and soon only Fu Jing and her son remained in the Fu family. Fu Jing still wanted to cultivate a good relationship with Zhu Fanfan.

Zhu Fanfan tugged at her grandmother's sleeve and pleaded, "I'm hungry, is there anything to eat?"

Tan Fuya immediately coaxed him: "You little lazy cat, you didn't get up this morning. I've already served you your food. Fang Zhiguo, who's with you, has already finished eating and gone to exercise. He should be back in a little while."

Fu Jing was unwilling to give up: "Mom, I haven't been home for so long, why don't you ask me if I've eaten?"

Tan Fuya immediately suppressed her smile when facing Fu Jing: "You're familiar with the house, you'll find something to eat when you're hungry. Fanfan is new here and doesn't know anywhere, so I have to take care of him."

After saying that, she pulled Zhu Fanfan away. She was angry about Fu Jing's current preference for sons over daughters, treating her daughters like farmhands and her sons like emperors. Her character was exactly the same as Luo Xing's. Fortunately, Xue Yaozu was not the kind of person who would push his luck, otherwise Zhao Di and the others would have had an even harder time.

Xue Yaozu: ...You guys didn't see how badly Xue Zhaodi beat him in private.

Fu Jing wanted to continue cultivating her relationship with Zhu Fanfan, but Fu Minghao stopped her: "Fu Jing, don't forget that Fanfan was adopted out. She's a member of the Zhu family. Watch your words, or you'll make me lose face."

Fu Jing felt wronged: "Fanfan is the child I carried for ten months and gave birth to with great difficulty. Can't I miss her?"

She thinks about this child all the time. If she had been braver back then, would the child have not been taken away? Now that she has given birth to a son, she can stand tall. If the Zhu family really loves her, they will not let her be separated from her biological parents.

Fu Minghao bluntly stated: "I'm letting you stay because Fanfan won't acknowledge you. I want you to see reality clearly. Don't forget how you almost killed Fanfan when he was adopted."

The Zhu family's educational environment is far superior to the Fu family's. The Zhu family's status as a third-generation revolutionary is a lifelong protective shield for Fanfan. The neighbors on both sides are broad-minded and open-minded people, making it a happy and healthy place for the child to live.

His biggest regret was that after Fu Jing got married, he ignored her out of spite, hoping she would regret it after hitting a wall. Who knew that in just a short time she would be completely brainwashed, thinking that not giving birth to a son was a sin, and she would boss her daughter around and belittle her at every turn.

If he had kept an eye on Fu Jing, he would never have allowed the children to be named Zhao Di Lai Di Pan Di. By the time he found out, the names were already registered, and the children would have been ruined sooner or later in her hands.

Fortunately, Xue Fu was living under his nose and couldn't cause any major trouble. Whenever Luo Xing treated his granddaughters badly, he would make things difficult for Xue Fu. Xue Fu was in a terrible state, but Luo Xing was even more upset than Xue Fu. Therefore, Luo Xing no longer dared to beat or scold his granddaughters, and the granddaughters were living quite well.

Fu Jing retorted, "How could I possibly do anything to my own daughter? She was my mother-in-law back then..."

Fu Minghao interrupted, "Don't blame everything on your mother-in-law. If you wanted to protect your child, what could you do? You were just going with the flow. You didn't want Fanfan but wanted a son. Now that you've gotten your wish, you've traded Fanfan for a son, so don't bother her anymore."

He wasn't very involved in his daughters' education, but he knew their personalities well enough that they were more than capable of protecting themselves. If Fu Jing really wanted to protect the children, she could do it.

Didn't she do very well later? The house was hers, and Xue Fu got his job because of her. She had all the advantages but was still bullied. This can only mean one thing: she wanted Xue Fu to feel that she was wronged and needed him to coax her. She sacrificed several children, so she was the most selfish among the sisters.

Fu Jing didn't dare to contradict her father, and could only say, "I'm just trying to get to know Fanfan, I won't bother her."

Fu Minghao could only say, "You'd better watch yourself." Fanfan is different from Zhaodi and the others; she's not so easily bullied.
