Chapter 27: A Clear Stance



Mother Xue whispered, "It's just a special medicine I bought to change the sex of the baby, so I can have a boy."

Qian Lai was even more furious: "What kind of abortion-changing drug? It's clearly a potent abortion drug! A perfectly healthy person almost died, and this is how you treat life? What's the point of treating the illness then? Just wait to die!"

This is outrageous! These doctors are risking their lives to save the patient, but the patient is just making a mess of things and insisting on giving his life to the King of Hell. What's the point of saving him? He might as well just go on strike.

Mother Xue dared not speak. Both doctors said it was an abortion drug, and it was very likely that it really was.

Despite his anger, Qian Lai still put Fu Jing on an IV drip. After calming down, he asked, "Who gave Fu Jing her blood? Such a potent abortion drug was able to save the child. I would like to pay a visit to such a highly skilled doctor."

Liu Yumin said, "Hello, I am Liu Yumin."

Qian Lai paused for a moment upon hearing the name, then asked blankly, "Which Liu Yumin?"

Liu Yumin replied gently, "How many more Liu Yumins are there?"

Qian Lai realized he had made a fool of himself, but he never expected that the legendary deputy director of the military region would be right in front of him. It was obvious that he had a close relationship with Brother Fu, but Brother Fu didn't even offer to introduce him.

The two doctors started talking. Zhu Fanfan saw Fu Jing receiving an IV drip and struggled to get to the front. Tan Fuya thought it might be due to their blood ties, so she also hugged the child closer so that she could see her more clearly.

Now that Zhu Fanfan can be held upright, he's at that restless stage, curiously approaching Fu Jing. Then, taking advantage of everyone's inattention, he suddenly pulled out the IV tube. Because the needle was secured well, blood gushed out like a shooting star after Fu Jing pulled it out, spraying uncontrollably. This startled Tan Fuya, who screamed, immediately attracting the attention of Liu Yumin and the other person. Liu Yumin quickly pressed on the wound, and the bleeding stopped after a while.

Looking at her mischievous granddaughter, Liu Yumin felt helpless. Seeing this, Fu Minghao immediately picked up the child and gently patted her back to comfort her: "Fanfan, don't be afraid, it's okay, it's okay."

Tan Fuya was a little angry: "She pulled out Fu Jing's IV drip." It was Fu Jing who was in trouble.

Fu Minghao didn't care: "Fanfan is just a child, what does she know? At this age, children are naturally curious about the outside world. Besides, Fu Jing is fine now, so it's not a big problem."

Based on what Fu Jing did to Fanfan, he didn't think Fanfan had done anything wrong; in fact, he felt quite relieved. He had been dissatisfied with Fu Jing's family for a long time.

At this moment, Fu Jing opened her eyes, feeling weak and in great pain all over her body. When she saw her parents, she couldn't stop crying: "Mom, I want to go home."

Fu Jing seemed so fragile, as if she could be blown away by a gust of wind, but Fu Minghao remained unmoved: "This is your home."

He paid for it, and the deed is in Fu Jing's name. She is the owner of this place. If he doesn't stand up for himself, it's no use going home. Afterwards, if Xue Fu says a few nice words, he might even complain that he's meddling.

Tan Fuya didn't want to have too much to do with the Xue family either: "A married daughter is like water spilled from a bowl; there's no going back. Just stay home and take good care of yourself!"

Fu Jing looked at her mother in disbelief. Was this still the same mother who always doted on her and never let her suffer any grievances? How badly had she been bullied by her mother-in-law? Shouldn't her mother be united with her in fighting against her mother-in-law, instead of helping her mother-in-law suppress her?

A surge of anger overwhelmed her: "You're not my mother! You must be possessed by something evil! Who are you? Give me back my real mother!"

Liu Yumin slapped him across the face: "Aren't you calmed down yet?"

The sound of the slap stunned Fu Jing. No one had ever slapped her in the face before. How dare she do that?

Liu Yumin said sternly, "You've taken abortion pills and are bleeding too much. I've finally managed to control your condition. If you get agitated again, you'll lose the baby, your beloved son."

She dares to yell at her own mother but doesn't dare to say anything harsh to her mother-in-law. If you don't get rid of a daughter like that, you'll be doing yourself a disservice. It's only because Sister Fuya is soft-hearted and can tolerate it that she doesn't spoil her.

Fu Jing realized what was happening and was about to start cursing when Liu Yumin said, "Only I can treat your illness. Think about your situation before you speak."

Fu Jing complained to Tan Fuya, "Mom, are you just going to watch your daughter get bullied?"

Seeing her daughter's expression, clearly harboring resentment, Tan Fuya completely lost all hope. Since she was treating her as an ordinary relative, she couldn't overstep the boundaries. She hardened her heart and said, "This is your home, and the deed is in your name."

Fu Minghao had already guessed his daughter's reaction, so he said, "My dear mother-in-law, you've worked hard taking care of Fu Jing. You're getting old, so it's inevitable that you can't take care of her as much as you want. It's really too much for one person to do it alone."

Seeing Fu Minghao's gentle smile, Xue's mother thought that Fu Minghao had softened his heart and wanted to make his daughter more comfortable after seeing her suffering. He even found a servant for her. The wrinkles on her face were full of smiles.

Unexpectedly, Fu Minghao continued, "The first four pregnancies were fine, but this one is too much to handle. It must be because Xue Fu is too busy and hasn't been able to help take care of my mother-in-law. I'll give him a heads-up and have him step down from his position as deputy director and come back to work as a factory worker. That way, he'll have time to help my mother-in-law take care of Fu Jing."

Mother Xue exclaimed in surprise, "That won't do! The whole family depends on his meager salary! Absolutely not!"

Fu Minghao laughed and said, "I'm still the factory director. If I say it's okay, then it's okay."

Xue Fu thought he had done a good job, winning everyone over. In the few months since taking office, he had started to bring bad practices into the factory, accepting bribes, arranging easy jobs for those who offered favors, suppressing honest and capable workers, and even trying to instigate factional struggles. How could one person have so many dramas? He would never allow Xue Fu to corrupt the factory. His spies in the workshop were watching Xue Fu closely!

The deputy director was already a pre-selected candidate. He had worked diligently in the factory for more than ten years. If it weren't for the need to appease Xue Fu by letting him temporarily take over for a few days, he would have wanted to kick Xue Fu out of the factory directly. Now he had a good excuse to remove him. Higher positions lead to more trouble. It's better to be a worker for life.

Naturally, Xue's mother was not convinced. Now that her son had become the deputy director, everyone in the building looked up to him. Before, if someone accidentally took something from another person, they would fight over it. Now, they would take the initiative to bring her things, and she would have to pick and choose. She would not accept anything that was not good. Her son absolutely could not be demoted.

Fu Minghao wasn't afraid of offending people: "A grown man can't even take care of his own family. He's supposed to be able to cultivate himself, govern the country, and manage the world. If he can't even do the most basic things, what can we expect from him? If he can't take care of Fu Jing either, we might as well get a divorce. My Fu family can still afford to support a girl."

Madam Xue naturally knew that the Fu family could afford to support her, so she looked anxiously at Fu Jing and quickly said a few nice words to make the matter pass.
