Early the next morning, at the Fu family.
Zhou Hongxia and Fu Xiaoxue were eating at the dining table. Seeing their exhausted son, they felt distressed and quickly served him a bowl of porridge. "Chunsheng, must you be tired from working the night shift? Come over and have something to eat. Then go back to sleep."
Fu Chunsheng walked to the dining table and threw the briefcase in his hand onto the chair.
The light softly shines on the table, and the carefully prepared breakfast on the table exudes an enticing aroma. It should have been a warm moment for the family to have breakfast together, but the air was filled with a sense of depression and tension.
Fu Chunsheng started by questioning, "Mom, you signed Yuzhu up to go to the countryside in the northwest just to separate her from me, right?"
Before going to work yesterday, he went to the guesthouse to visit Lin Yuzhu and learned that she had been signed up to go to the countryside.
He hurried to the Youth League Office to find his old classmate who worked there.
His classmate quietly revealed that his mother and Xiaoxue had gone to the duty office to see the director, and considering that Zhou Hongxia did not agree with him and me, Lin Yuzhu, being together, he was certain that it was Zhou Hongxia's doing.
Zhou Hongxia put down the bowl in her hand heavily and snorted coldly, "I did it, so what?
Fu Chunsheng's brows knitted together, their lines forming a "川" shape. "Mom, why did you do that? Yuzhu is fragile. Letting her go to the northwest will kill her. That's a life at stake."
"Bang!--"
Zhou Hongxia's face darkened, and she suddenly raised her voice sharply, "Why? Marriage is a matter of life and death, and it's decided by parents and matchmakers. I've spoken to her many times, clearly disapproving of you two being together, yet she still shamelessly pesters you. She's trying to ruin my proudest son. How can I not be angry?"
Fu Chunsheng threatened her, saying, "Mom, I'm telling you today, if Yuzhu goes to the northwest, I'll go with her."
Zhou Hongxia's eyes widened with anger, and she pointed at his hand with a trembling hand. "You, what did you say? You want to go to the northwest too? There's yellow sand and Gobi deserts everywhere. You'll die. You're not allowed to go. I won't allow you to go."
"...I'm the one who harmed Yuzhu. I can't just watch her go to the northwest and suffer alone. If she goes to the northwest, I'll go too. I'll go to protect her.
Zhou Hongxia's face turned ashen, and her eyes seemed to be able to spit fire as she stared at her son who was standing opposite her with a stubborn look on his face.
Both mother and son stared at each other, as if competing to see who could be more stubborn to the end.
She tried her best to suppress the raging rage in her heart, her lips trembling violently, the atmosphere at the dinner table was suffocatingly heavy, and every second felt like an eternity.
Zhou Hongxia was almost going crazy. Ever since that woman appeared, her usually filial son would talk back to her. She was even more determined in her heart that she would never let that woman in even if she died.
"I am your mother. I carried you for ten months and endured more than twenty years of hardship and effort to raise you. How can you talk to me like this!" Zhou Hongxia's angry voice was filled with disappointment, heartache and helplessness.
As soon as she finished speaking, she swung her arm violently, and the big pot of porridge, buns, soy milk, fried dough sticks, rice noodle rolls and other breakfast items and bowls and chopsticks on the dining table were swept down by her angry force, and the crackling collision shattered them and splashed on the ground, making a mess.
How could she have given birth to such a useless son? A man should have accomplished great things in his career to be qualified to be the heir of the Fu family. What good would it be to dwell on love affairs all day?!
All the careful teaching and hard work over the past twenty years have been wasted!
It’s all in vain!!!
Fu Xiaoxue raised her hand to help her touch her chest, "Mom, calm down first, calm down, calm down."
She glared at Fu Chunsheng and said angrily, "Brother, it really wasn't Mom's doing to send Lin Yuzhu to the countryside. Before we went to the Youth League Office, she was already on the list of those going to the countryside in Northwest China. If you don't believe me, go check it out."
Fu Chunsheng looked at her in astonishment. "Xiaoxue, is what you said true? Yuzhu didn't report it either, so who else could it be?"
"It's all true. If I tell a lie, I'll be struck by lightning and die a miserable death, okay?"
Fu Chunsheng's eyes swept over the heartbroken Zhou Hongxia, and the stubbornness on his handsome face was gradually replaced by fear and guilt.
His hands hanging at his sides were clenched tightly, and the veins on the back of his hands were faintly visible.
At this moment, he also regretted why he was so impulsive and came back to question his mother who had loved and cared for him since he was a child without finding out the situation.
"I don't know. We're not her mother. If she didn't report it herself, then it must have been some other enemy. It wasn't me or my mother. If you don't believe me, go to the Youth League Office and ask."
Fu Xiaoxue was angry and spoke in a harsh tone. That bitch Lin Yuzhu was not worth her effort.
Fu realized his mistake and apologized immediately. He walked up to Zhou Hongxia and gently placed his hand on her shoulder. "Mom, I'm sorry. I misunderstood you. Please calm down. It's all my fault. I won't do it again next time."
Zhou Hongxia coldly brushed off his hand and said, "Get out, get out, get out of this house. I don't have a son like you."
After roaring to vent his anger, he leaned weakly against the back of the chair, staring blankly ahead with mixed feelings.
Fu Chunsheng knew that she was angry and anything he said would only make her angrier. Now he had something more important to do.
He wanted to find out the whole story of her husband.
If it can be confirmed that someone replaced Lin Yuzhu and secretly registered her to go to the countryside, let the Youth League Office cancel her name.
"Mom, calm down. Don't let your anger get to your health. I have something else to go out for. Xiaoxue, take good care of me. I'll be back at noon."
Zhou Hongxia, “…”
Looking at his back as he left, I was so angry that I almost vomited blood.
The son's mother is a money-loser. She no longer wants him when he has a wife. I have raised her for so many years in vain. Fortunately, I have a daughter, otherwise I would have no way to live.
