CHAPTER 144: CHAPTER 140: SPEAKING UP FOR MRS. FU (PART 3)

"Besides, Jiang Xin, marrying into the family, doesn’t seem like someone who knows how to live a proper life. Haven’t you heard Mrs. Fu say that since Jiang Xin married in, she hasn’t done a single bit of housework?"

"Just ask, which daughter-in-law is as lazy as her, and she doesn’t even know how to make money. She spends all day wandering around town, buying clothes that cost as much as our ordinary family’s entire year’s worth of food."

"You should know, the money Jiang Xin spends is all earned by Fu Yu through hard work."

The person speaking up for Mrs. Fu knows nothing about the real situation within the Fu Family.

So, when speaking, it’s natural for them to support Mrs. Fu, only knowing how to say good things for her.

In fact, they don’t know anything about the inside story.

The money Jiang Xin spends all comes from what she earns herself, along with what her parents gave her.

Since she married in, she hasn’t even met Fu Yu, so naturally, she hasn’t spent any of his money.

Moreover, even if Mrs. Fu had money, she wouldn’t hand it over to Jiang Xin to spend her son’s hard-earned money—that’s simply a dream.

She’d rather use the money to support her own family than let Jiang Xin, the legitimate daughter-in-law, spend a single penny of it.

Of course, if Mrs. Fu were to offer her pocket money, Jiang Xin probably wouldn’t accept it either, as she’s planning to divorce Fu Yu, so naturally, the less they are financially entangled, the better.

This way, when they part ways, there won’t be as much conflict.

In fact, deep down, Jiang Xin is still fairly hopeful for an amicable separation, believing that if she can avoid some trouble, that’s a bit of trouble avoided; she fears nothing more than trouble.

But looking at the current situation, Mrs. Fu’s actions are basically trampling all over her bottom line every day, so Jiang Xin naturally just doesn’t want to endure it anymore.

And she absolutely can’t endure it.

Jiang Xin thought bitterly that when the day comes for her and Fu Yu to divorce, she must fulfill Mrs. Fu’s wish and stir up turmoil in their family.

She absolutely has to make a big deal out of it, so they’ll remember that Jiang Xin is not someone to be trifled with.

When Jiang Xin heard the person speaking up for Mrs. Fu, she was instantly amused in anger.

She truly didn’t know where they got the confidence to say such things.

It’s important to know that since she married in, she hasn’t spent a single penny of the Fu Family’s money.

Not to mention, her parents have been sending money from out of province every month.

So, even if she didn’t come over, the original would still not be short of money to spend.

After all, in her parents’ hearts, their daughter was always considered someone to be raised well, so they’ve never lacked in providing for the original her materially.

If it weren’t for the unexpected incident, the original her would have grown up in a home filled with love and happiness.

Instead of currently having to battle wits every day with an evil mother-in-law.

The person who spoke up for Mrs. Fu just now clearly pleased her.

She was already quite anxious, wanting to push the blame for what she’d done onto someone else so the police wouldn’t suspect her.

So, she said that maybe it was an employee at the Department Store who stole it.

Of course, she knew this was unreasonable; she wasn’t that foolish, she just wanted to divert others’ focus in another direction.

In this regard, Mrs. Fu considered herself quite clever; with her little interruption, it would be difficult for these people to suspect her.

But unexpectedly, after the villagers heard what she said, one by one, they all came out to accuse her of having distorted ideas.

After hearing the villagers’ words, Mrs. Fu was so angry her face turned red, but the police were standing right next to her, so she dared not say much more, for the more she spoke, the more mistakes she’d make.

So, she didn’t argue with the villagers because it would only look bad for her.

Mrs. Fu was feeling so frustrated when someone came out to speak for her, and sure enough, when she looked up, it was her long-time old friend.

As soon as her old friend’s words came out, Mrs. Fu immediately felt much more at ease.
