Chapter 77: Playing Cards
Although Mr. Fu usually doesn't care about anything at home, Mrs. Fu is not afraid of him.
But he is a man after all. If he gets angry, Mother Fu is still somewhat afraid of Father Fu.
At this moment, after hearing what Mr. Fu said, she was stunned.
I didn't expect that this old man could say such words to me.
This really came as a surprise to Mother Fu.
But her daze only lasted for a few seconds, and Mother Fu reacted quickly.
I heard Father Fu say that she had something bad in her stomach.
This was the first time that Mother Fu did not get angry at Father Fu because of this.
After all, what Mr. Fu said touched her heart.
Thinking about what she was going to do soon, it was impossible for Father Fu to miss it since he was at home with her.
Whatever she wanted to do was right under the nose of Father Fu, and if she was discouraged, Father Fu would definitely stop her.
This old man has decent ideas.
I will never do anything that is immoral.
If I knew she did this, stealing clothes from her daughter-in-law's closet, I would definitely stop her.
Mrs. Fu was speechless for a moment, her mind racing, trying to think of some solution.
There were so many clothes in Jiang Xin's closet that she would feel uncomfortable if she didn't steal two pieces and give them to her niece from her mother's family.
To put it bluntly, it was because she disliked Jiang Xin, so she wanted to make her unhappy.
Mother Fu thought about it, and suddenly she came up with a way to get Father Fu out.
Mother Fu blinked her eyes, touched her head, and then said to Father Fu in a very hesitant tone:
"Old man, didn't you say you had something to do and had to go out today? Breakfast has already been eaten, why aren't you leaving yet?"
Last night, Fu's father discussed with Fu's mother and said that he had made an appointment with his friends from the neighboring village this morning to play cards under the big willow tree at the entrance of the village.
There are three people missing one, only Mr. Fu is missing.
However, Mr. Fu is a henpecked husband, and he would not dare to agree to his card-playing friends unless his mother gave the order.
If he went to play cards without Fu's mother's consent and was discovered by her, he would definitely be scolded.
Otherwise, with Fu's mother's violent temper, she would have blown his skull off.
Last night, after much persuasion from Mr. Fu, Mrs. Fu finally agreed to give him two hours off so that he could play cards with his friends.
But early this morning, just after breakfast, Father Fu happily told Mother Fu that he was going out to play cards.
But for some reason, Fu's mother rejected Fu's father's request bluntly.
All the promises made last night no longer count.
This really made Father Fu very angry.
If Mother Fu had not agreed to Father Fu's request at the very beginning, Father Fu would not have been so angry.
The problem is that last night, Fu's mother clearly agreed to Fu's father's request, and after learning that his wife agreed, Fu's father immediately went to tell his card-playing friends that the card game had been scheduled.
Now, if Father Fu quits, there will be no one to replace him. It's like three people missing one. Isn't this a lack of trust?
How can a person behave like this?
By then, if Father Fu goes out again and his card-playing friends find out that he doesn't dare to go out to play cards because he is afraid of his wife, won't they laugh at him?
Not only that, his card-playing friends probably won't take him with them to play cards anymore. How much fun will he lose?
Originally, there were no entertainment activities in this village, and Mr. Fu’s only hobby was playing cards.
These people come to play cards, not to win or lose, they just want to kill time and have fun, it's not gambling, so generally speaking, family members agree with it.
However, Fu's mother has a very bad personality. In the eyes of other people, playing cards is an abnormal thing, but Fu's mother has an extremely strong possessiveness.
She felt that Father Fu could not leave her sight. If this man was not hanging around under her nose, he must be out doing something bad.
Although Mother Fu and Father Fu have been married for many years and know that Father Fu is not that kind of person, she just doesn't want Father Fu to go out and play cards.
The man in my family is honest, but he can't resist the malicious seduction of the old woman from other families.
What if, while she is playing cards, an old lady from the next village maliciously seduces her man?
She is so old now and doesn't want to make any changes and be laughed at by the whole village.
So, it’s better to have less trouble than more, so just don’t let Mr. Fu go out to play cards.
In this way, she wouldn't have to worry about it every day, thinking about it or making blind guesses, and she could avoid a lot of trouble.
However, how could Mother Fu take the initiative to tell Father Fu about these thoughts in her mind?
If Father Fu knew about the dirty thoughts in her mind, he would definitely curse her and say that Mother Fu didn't trust him.
Therefore, whenever Fu's father proposed to go to the village entrance to play cards, Fu's mother would refuse his idea on the grounds that there was still farm work to be done at home.
Last night, Mr. Fu said that he wanted to go to the village entrance to play cards with his friends tomorrow morning and asked Mrs. Fu for her opinion.
Fu's mother's first reaction at that time was to speak up and directly refuse Fu's father on the grounds that she still had farm work to do at home.
Let Mr. Fu be honest, stay at home, and don't follow her to work anywhere.
But Mr. Fu hasn't played cards for almost three months. He feels very depressed at home. This season is not the busy farming season, and there is not much work in every household.
Of course they didn't have any at home, and they didn't even farm the land, so how could they do farm work?
Mr. Fu knew that it was Mrs. Fu who didn't want him to go out to play cards, so after he said all the nice things he could, Mrs. Fu reluctantly agreed and gave him two hours off.
As a result, he never expected that Fu's mother would suddenly change her mind and not let him go.
Father Fu originally thought that since he had promised his poker friends, he could not break the appointment, so Father Fu originally thought about reasoning with Mother Fu. If Mother Fu still disagreed after he had reasoned with her, then Father Fu would have a big fight with her.
Mrs. Fu is too suffocating. What other old woman is like her, staring at a man like this every day and not letting him go out? Besides, he is not going out to do anything bad, so he has to be given a chance to breathe.
