Someone said with a disdainful look, "You guys are just short-sighted. Fu Liugen and Liu Xiuying finally had a child. Liu Xiuying had no breast milk, so if they didn't buy formula, what else could the child eat?"
“Fu Liugen bought formula because Liu Xiuying didn’t have breast milk. What’s wrong with that?” another person chimed in.
"That's completely wrong! How could a woman who has given birth not have breast milk? And how could she have raised Fu Shen, who was only two or three months old at the time, to be so healthy and chubby?"
Some people sharply refuted this.
"Ah, I see! Could it be that Fu Shen was stolen from someone else's house by Fu Liugen and raised here?"
Suddenly, someone in the crowd exclaimed.
As Fu Shen listened to everyone's chatter, a faint sneer on his face, he was in an unusually good mood.
They said everything he had been holding in his heart and wanted to say most.
Fu Liugen and Liu Xiuying's faces instantly darkened, their eyes filled with resentment and unease.
They didn't get their money back, and were even portrayed as despicable human traffickers by the crowd.
Fu Shen coldly replied, "I don't have any retirement money."
Fu Liugen and his group were naturally unwilling to let the matter rest, and angrily went to Wu Zhongjian to reason with him.
At this moment, Wu Zhongjian was unaware that Fu Shen had returned. He was sitting in the brigade office, talking to the accountant, while Wu Guoliang listened quietly beside him.
Fu Liugen and Liu Xiuying rushed in, their faces full of grievance and anxiety, and said loudly, "Secretary, you have to stand up for us!"
Wu Zhongjian frowned. "What decision should we make?"
Liu Xiuying's eyes reddened, and her voice trembled with tears as she said, "Fu Shen is back. He insists that he's not Liu Gen and me's biological son. Not only will he not give us retirement money, but he's also threatened to report us to the police!"
Upon hearing the news of Fu Shen's return, Wu Guoliang's eyes lit up instantly, and he rushed out without hesitation.
Wu Zhongjian glanced at his son who was leaving in a hurry, and said indifferently, "Don't you know whether Fu Shen is your biological son or not? What can I do about it?"
Fu Liugen felt bitter. Precisely because Fu Shen was not their biological son, they needed Wu Zhongjian to make the decision even more!
If he were his own son, why would he come to someone he has no relation to complain like this?
The accountant leaned forward and whispered tentatively, "Fu Shen isn't really your child, is he?"
Fu Liugen and Liu Xiuying: "..."
They came hoping Wu Zhongjian could help them get money from Fu Shen, not to discuss whether Fu Shen was their biological son.
Wu Zhongjian was also stunned. Then, with a serious expression and sharp eyes, he asked, "Is Fu Shen not your biological son?"
Fu Liugen's eyes darted away.
Seeing this, Wu Zhongjian told the accountant to go back first.
After the accountant left, Fu Liugen said, "Even if he's not our biological son, we raised him. Why shouldn't we get a single penny?"
Hearing this, Wu Zhongjian immediately became furious and said indignantly, "Ask yourselves honestly, did you really raise Fu Shen? It's more like Guo Liang raised him! Every time he came back from working in the fields with you, when it was time to eat, didn't you always find an excuse to kick him out? After you finished eating, he still had to wash the dishes before he could go to sleep! I really wish Fu Shen wasn't your child. Having parents like you is shameful! Now you have the nerve to come here and ask me to stand up for you? Who stood up for Fu Shen when he was a child?"
As Fu Liugen listened to Wu Zhongjian recount the past events one by one, he showed no remorse whatsoever; on the contrary, he felt that he had suffered a great loss.
If I had known that I would have my own child someday, who would have taken in a child that no one else wanted and raised it?
It's expensive and laborious, and even after raising them, we're not close to them at all.
“Before he turned four, we spent a lot of money on milk powder for him and a place for him to live. That all cost money! Why doesn’t he consider that? Now he’s insisting that we don’t pay him back and that he’ll have us arrested and imprisoned! If we hadn’t met him, he would be suffering somewhere right now!”
