Fu Yuzhong was unusually assertive. “Pay back the money. If you don’t, you won’t leave the Fu family mansion today. Even if we take you to the police station, my son and I will have a case to settle. Besides, we are not only your Cui family’s enemies, but also the Fu family siblings who have suffered as a result.”
Cui Hailu's expression seemed somewhat complicated. Her parents always complained about being poor in front of her, asking her to scrape together some money for their retirement every month. Last time the Pei family was robbed, she did consider calling her parents to borrow some money for the emergency, but they told her they had no money and wouldn't lend her even a penny. At the time, she was considerate and understanding of her parents, but she never expected that they would really not lend her any money.
Now that Grandma Fu has revealed it, she realizes that her parents are not poor at all; they just don't want to spend money on their daughter.
Immediately afterwards, she couldn't help but recall what Grandma Fu and her daughter had said, and she gradually followed in Grandma Fu's footsteps.
No, Guangzong is not her brother. She raised him from childhood and they are as close as mother and son. Guangzong would never do something as immoral as his brother and sister-in-law, like marrying off his aunt to get a dowry.
Pei Antong could easily see her mother's feelings at that moment, probably hurt by her maternal grandparents' favoritism. "Mom, you're the second Old Lady Fu. Last time, didn't Guangzong try to get you to be a mistress to a high-ranking official? Isn't that selling you out?"
The thought of her son's tragic fate filled Shen Chunman with uncontrollable rage. She rushed over to the Cui couple and slapped them across the face several times.
"You've gone too far!" The Cui couple, feeling provoked, rolled up their sleeves, ready to fight back.
Old Mrs. Fu and Fu Yuzhong, seeing this, couldn't stand it anymore and joined the fight without hesitation. The five of them wrestled together, and needless to say, Shen Chunman and the other two gained the upper hand.
Cui Hailu tried to break up the fight, but Pei Guangzong pulled her back. Pei Antong, on the other hand, didn't even try to stop it. The siblings shared the same thought: the Cui family grandparents just needed to be taught a lesson.
Pei Guangzong, in particular, was filled with resentment. His grandparents had money but didn't care about him. Instead, they insisted on taking money from his aunt and nephew to subsidize the Cui family in the countryside. They were really biased.
The last time Cui Hailu called to borrow money, he was listening nearby. The two old people didn't insist that they had no money and didn't care at all whether their own grandson had money to spend. It seems that there are differences between grandsons. Just like how Old Madam Fu treated her eldest son's grandson poorly and favored her second son's grandson.
In the end, it was Brother Chen who said: "Have you made enough of a scene?"
Only then was the battle brought to an end.
Zhao Baiping poured a glass of water for the Cui couple at the right time. "In-laws, calm down. I can understand your Cui family's good intentions. Our Pei family knows that Guangzong is not our biological son, and we have no intention of looking down on him. But he insists on breaking off the marriage with the Pei family. You must persuade him not to ruin his future. If the man's family does not have a proper status, the Du family will look down on him and laugh at Guangzong for being a live-in son-in-law."
