Madam Deng made up her mind and hurriedly went to look for Third Brother Fu to study.
"Come here, Chief. I have something to discuss with you."”
"What's the matter?" Third Brother Fu asked.
Madam Deng looked around and saw that no one was paying attention to them. She whispered,"Do you think we should separate the house today because of sister-in-law's trouble?"”
"Why are we splitting up at this time?”
Madam Deng: " This is the right time to talk about splitting the family. Think about it, this time, it was Sister-in-law who started the trouble. We belong to the aggrieved side. If we let the old master offend someone, we can get more money!" It's been a mess recently. After we get the money, I'll ask if we can lower the price of the house.”
Third Brother Fu asked,"Will it work?" Sister-in-law did make a scene just now, but didn't she stop now? Besides, she didn't mention anything about splitting up!"
"Don't worry, I'll be at the side in a while and I'll definitely ask for a divorce."”Madam Deng said with certainty.
Madam Deng and Third Brother Fu communicated with each other and observed Madam Zhou and Fu Yi's expressions. Then, she looked at her sister-in-law and Zhao Li.
Through the Zhou Consortium's ruckus just now, Deng Consortium and the others already knew that Zhao Li was not here to pick him up but to take advantage of him. Deng Consortium definitely did not like this.
If one were to say that one's knowledge was not very good, one would still have to study to get an official rank. The year before last, he had taken a pretty good examination and was ranked 301 on the scholar list. Unfortunately, only 320 people were ranked every year. The year before last, due to some matters in the imperial court, only 300 people were ranked. He had brushed them off and only recalled the good news when it had reached his doorstep. He had been happy for nothing.
Now, he was even more shameless and wanted his wife's family to support him. Previously, he heard that his mother wanted to buy a house here! Now, it seemed that it wasn't as simple as what they had heard. They had actually taken action.
She then looked at Fu Yi. This Fu Yi was a selfish and ruthless person. If she wanted to move out smoothly, she could do something. Thinking of this, Madam Deng came to Fu Yi's side and said,"Big girl, we will live together from now on. You should take care of your younger brother and sister!"”Madam Deng deliberately said this to anger Fu Yi.
When Fu Yi heard this, she snorted fiercely and turned around to look for Madam Zhou.
Madam Zhou was so angry that Boss Fu fainted because of her tantrum just now. She was now hiding in a corner alone and didn't know what to do. Fu Yi happened to go over.
"Mother, what are you doing here?" Why don't you go and see my father?"
Madam Zhou: " I don't dare to go over. I'm afraid that he'll get angry again when he sees me. If something bad happens to him, I don't dare to go.”
Fu Yi thought to herself that he was trash! It was best to save money in the future if he was angered to death. If he could not earn money in the future and could only spend money, he might as well die! Although she didn't like the two of them now, she still had to rely on them. There was almost no place for her to stay in this house now.
Fu Yi: " Anyway, you've already made a fuss. You can't make a fuss for nothing. No matter what, you can't let anyone stay in today. Otherwise, why would you make a fuss? You have to make my father so angry that he has to take medicine and invite his uncle. If they dare not listen to you, you will also ask for a divorce.”
Madam Zhou was shocked when she heard this. Split up? How could that work!
Fu Yi saw the disapproval on Madam Zhou's face and said," I'm not asking you to split up with Lizhen to scare them. Look at my aunt, when she mentioned splitting up with Lizhen, her in-laws followed her every word.
With my father's current condition, it's even more impossible for you to divorce him. Who will serve him if you divorce him?
Besides, you're not afraid even if we really divorce. My brothers and I will definitely follow you. Besides, our family's silver is with me. What are you afraid of? We have nearly 500 taels of silver!
If my father divorces you, he will have nothing. He will also give in to you. Don't worry, go and cause trouble and chase these people away!”
Madam Zhou felt that these words made sense. What was she going to do if there was no result today? Boss Fu's body was so weak now that he couldn't leave her. Besides, as her daughter said, the money was hidden on her side. She wasn't afraid of getting a divorce.
With an idea in her heart, her body also had the motivation. Seeing that her uncle was about to go back, Madam Zhou planned to wait for him to leave and continue working.
Madam Deng was overjoyed when she saw the mother and daughter whispering to each other. Fu Yi was really awesome. She might be able to get the results today!
Fu Liangcheng sent his uncle out and asked about his brother's condition. He also talked about the rice they went to buy today. As they walked, they talked about the war in the past few days. They also said that there were many beggars on the streets recently. The two of them could only sigh.
After sending his uncle away, Fu Liangcheng returned home and told him about what happened at the old home. He also asked if he had eaten anything for lunch today. He said that he would let his family have a bite first and that he would prepare something to eat at night. After that, he went to the old home again and said that he would come back if there was nothing else.
Not long after Fu Liangcheng left, there was a knock on the door. Fu Jia went to open the door. When she opened the door, there were beggars standing outside. Fu Jia shouted inside, and Madam Wang immediately came out.
It seemed that the beggar was a woman carrying a small child on her back. It was quite pitiful. The child was crying loudly because of hunger. The woman was also yellow and emaciated. She could not even carry the child. Madam Wang was also a mother. Seeing this scene, she could not bear it and went to get a steamed bun and a bowl of soup for the woman and child to eat.
In the past few days, there had been several people who came knocking on the door to beg. However, the Wang family did not give anything to just anyone. She only gave food to women and children with children. After all, her family's population was quite large now. Moreover, food was precious now. What if everyone came to ask for it if you had more food? If you didn't give it, it would be bad if you robbed it.
Seeing the woman and child drink the soup, take the bowl back and close the door, Madam Wang sighed. This was already the third wave that came today. The Wang Consortium didn't plan to give them any more. They really couldn't afford it!
Just as Madam Wang was about to enter the house, there was another knock on the door. Madam Wang wanted to pretend that she didn't hear it, but Fu Jia still opened the door. This time, there were a few children standing at the door. The oldest looked like he was 9 years old, and the youngest looked like he was 4 years old and about the same height as Wang Jun. Madam Wang turned around and looked at the children. In the end, she couldn't help but let the children enter the courtyard instead of at the door.
The children were afraid and hesitant at first because this was the only house that opened the door for them after knocking for a whole day. Moreover, it didn't look like a bad person. The children hesitated. In the end, the older child lifted his feet and walked in before the other children followed him in. After the older child entered, he knelt down first and said," Aunt, have mercy on us. Our children haven't eaten for days. Our parents were killed by the Japanese. Please have mercy on us!"”
When Madam Wang saw this, she immediately helped the child up and said," Don't be like this, don't be like this. Aunt's house doesn't have much left. You guys drink some soup first. Aunt will give you a few mixed flour buns!”
As Madam Wang spoke, Fu Jia went in and scooped out the remaining soup in a small basin. She also gave each child a spoon and said,"Drink some!"
Wang Qian, Da Yan, and Xiao Yan also helped to get a few steamed buns with mixed flour for the children to eat.
The children hadn't eaten for many days. Recently, they had been picking up rotten vegetables and fruits thrown by others. When they finally saw the hot soup and mixed flour steamed buns, they were so greedy that they rushed over to drink the soup and eat the steamed buns.
The boy who knelt down in the room did not eat first. Instead, he took care of his younger siblings and ate and drank first. Madam Wang felt very sad when she saw that this child was so sensible. It was said that the children of the poor would be sensible early in this chaotic world!
When the children were almost done eating, the older child had yet to take a bite. Fu Jiawen said," There's almost nothing left. Aren't you going to eat?”
The boy said,"I'm fine with a little. I have to make everyone eat more so that they can survive!"”
Fu Jia,"Don't you want to live when everyone is alive?" Eat it, or else how are you going to lead them to live well?”
When the boy heard this, tears fell." I'll eat. I have to keep them alive. I promised. I promised."”
Madam Wang's eyes turned red when she saw this. She said," If you really can't find anything to eat in the future, you can come to my place again. I'll try my best to get you something to eat!"”
When the boy heard this, he knelt down again and said," Thank you, Auntie. Thank you, Auntie. But we won't always come unless we're the hungriest."”
The boy's words made Madam Wang very surprised and touched. This was a sensible child. Unfortunately, this feeling was ruined by a burst of noise. This noise was so familiar. The old courtyard was making trouble again.
