Cui Hailu did want to buy a job for her daughter, but most of her money was sent back to her parents' home. In addition, she and her son spent money like water and couldn't save much money at all. She also didn't want her parents-in-law to know that she often subsidized her parents' home.
Fu Wanning probably doesn't know that when her great-grandparents were sent to the countryside, it was her own grandparents who secretly orchestrated it, with the aim of seizing her great-grandparents' family property. This was because her great-grandmother, Ye Siyun, was a "red capitalist," and her family had given her a lot of dowry, which the Pei family had always coveted.
Because Fu Wanning and Pei Guangzong are Fu Qingning's children, the great-uncle has always been exploited and squeezed by the Pei family grandparents. If the great-uncle does not compromise, the Pei family grandparents will abuse Fu Qingning's children.
The youngest grandfather's family had to endure the control and manipulation of the Pei family for a long time because Fu Qingning was the youngest son's most beloved daughter. The couple treated her as their own. Their youngest son was on a mission and his fate was unknown. Fu Qingning went to meet him but he also disappeared. They could only do their best to protect Fu Qingning's children.
In fact, Cui Hailu and her daughter couldn't understand why the great-grandfather's family valued their son's ex-girlfriend's children so much.
The mother and daughter were unaware that Fu Wanning and her brother were not the biological granddaughters of the Pei family.
"Impossible, they won't be in trouble. Did you report them? The Pei family is already under your control, why won't you leave my great-grandfather and the others alone? They've never offended you. You're using their money and you're trying to destroy them. Aren't you afraid of retribution?" Fu Wanning had long suspected that her great-grandfather's demotion was related to Cui Hailu and the others. It was likely that the Pei family's grandparents had fueled the fire. However, she was powerless and had no connections. Even her uncles couldn't find out where her great-grandfather had been sent and couldn't send them any supplies.
Knowing that her stepdaughter was most concerned about her great-uncle's whereabouts, Cui Hailu decisively used them as leverage, saying, "If you want to know where your great-uncle is, you have to exchange your job for it. Maybe I can help you choose where your great-uncle is being sent down. Now it depends on whether you are willing to sacrifice yourself."
Not to mention her biological mother, Pei Antong, as the daughter, was also aware of the situation. Pei Shengtong and Ye Siyun had just been sent down to Xiangyang Village, where they were kept under constant surveillance by Old Lady Fu and the Cui family. A few days ago, her biological mother received a call from her hometown. The Cui family relatives, worried that the walls might be overheard, only briefly mentioned that the young master had discovered the truth and was preparing to go to Beijing to reunite with his relatives. They did not reveal the current situation of Pei Shengtong and Ye Siyun, presumably because the couple was living a very miserable life and not worth mentioning.
"Wouldn't it be perfect for you to go to the countryside to take care of your great-uncle? I heard that the bad elements who were sent down to the countryside are living a miserable life. They don't have enough to eat or wear, they are dragged out for criticism and struggle sessions from time to time, and they are bullied by the villagers every day. Countless of them have starved to death or died of disease. Your great-uncle and great-aunt are professors, and their health is weak. They may have already..."
She was waiting, waiting for Fu Wanning to compromise. She was confident that Fu Wanning would obediently hand over her work.
Fu Wanning was indeed wavering, but she knew the character of her stepmother and her daughter. They both wanted to ruin her grandfather, so how could they possibly help her get to his side? They should be grateful if they didn't send her to the far northwest.
But she didn't want to miss her great-uncle's whereabouts, and she had a hunch that the mother and daughter must know the inside story.
"Let me think about it. Who knows if you're just trying to fool me..."
At this moment, Pei Guangzong walked into the house with a nonchalant air and said in a matter-of-fact and unyielding tone, "What are you considering? I've decided to give it to Sister Antong. If you don't, you'll be disrespectful to your sister and unfilial to your mother. The Pei family raised you for so long, you should repay their kindness."
