In Cui Hailu's eyes, Fu Yuzhong is an indecisive fool who values family ties and filial piety, and is easily swayed by others.
She specifically mentioned the family to remind them of the principle that everyone prospers or suffers together, and to warn Old Madam Fu and her son not to overdo their act, lest they expose their flaws.
That's right, even now I still believe that my aunt and son are here to support me and make decisions for me.
The reason is simple: Old Mrs. Fu was brainwashed by the Cui family since she was a child. From childhood to old age, she regarded the Cui family as her heaven and her prosperity as her priority. She was such a despicable person who could even abandon her own grandson. How could she possibly fall out with her own family?
Her maternal family was Old Madam Fu's support. Only when her nephew was doing well could her aunt stand tall in the Fu family. Once things had calmed down, she needed to ask her aunt about the current situation of Young Master Fu Jingchen so she could make preparations in advance.
However, given his aunt's domineering nature, Fu Jingchen had been exploited for twenty years and ultimately failed to leave Xiangyang Village, freeing himself from the Fu family's filial piety and the debt of gratitude for raising him. It seemed that he posed no real threat. Thinking of this, he couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.
All I can say is that she let go of that breath too quickly!
When Fu Yuzhong saw Cui Hailu and Pei Guangzong, looking glamorous and wealthy, he couldn't help but think of his foolish son who had suffered hardship and abuse at the hands of the Cui family, and a surge of anger welled up inside him, feeling as if he had been deceived.
When asked why he didn't hate Old Lady Fu, one of the culprits, he replied...
The main reason is that Old Lady Fu is his biological mother. As a filial son, he cannot blame his mother who gave birth to him. Moreover, his biological mother is also a victim who was used and poisoned by the Cui family. She is easily fooled by her own family. She cannot resist the demands of her parents.
In short, everything was caused by the Cui family's breach of trust. Now that their mother has come to her senses, she will not be able to quell her resentment until she avenges herself and her descendants.
“Who’s family to you? Your Cui family is full of evil, you even deceive and take advantage of your relatives. Are you even human? You’re enjoying yourselves in the city, but what about my son? He’s been ruined by your Cui family. He’s been abused since he was a child and has become an idiot. And your Cui family still won’t let him go. My poor little son, my wife and children are all your fault.”
Upon hearing this, the onlookers hiding outside were stunned, but also became even more excited.
The three members of the Pei family widened their eyes upon hearing this. They had initially thought that Old Madam Fu and her son had come to interrogate them, but it was clear that they hadn't.
Cui Hailu was visibly panicked and dumbfounded. Reality was completely different from what she had imagined. Had Fu Yuzhong, who was usually honest and stupid, lost his mind?
"Auntie, is my cousin sick? What big thing happened to the Fu family? You're getting angry at me for no reason. I'm really wronged. I've always lived in Beijing. What have I done to the Fu family?"
No, something must have happened to the Fu and Cui families in Xiangyang Village, otherwise Aunt wouldn't have gone to the capital without telling her, catching her completely off guard.
Pei Antong wrinkled her nose, sensing that the visitor was up to no good. "Grandma, can you control your son? The Pei family is a respectable family. We can't tolerate a peasant like him running wild. What will people think of our Pei family if word gets out? People who don't know the situation will think that my mother's family is all vulgar."
Pei Guangzong shrank back, feeling a strange sense of unease before a storm. "Grandma, you should watch your words and actions when you're out and about. This is a big city, not some poor place like Xiangyang Village. If a grown man acts like a shrew, people will laugh at him for being uncultured!"
