Chapter 197 Cause and Effect



Zhu Fanfan saw her older sister squatting at the hospital entrance from afar. Xue Zhaodi saw Fanfan and hurried over to her: "Why did you take so long to come out?"

She's been waiting for a while now.

Zhu Fanfan asked curiously, "When did you come out?"

The older sister was in the ward just now, and she came out first. At a normal walking pace, the older sister actually got ahead of her.

Xue Zhaodi said, "My mother asked me to see you off. I thought you came out first, and there are many roads in the hospital. I was afraid you would get lost, so I ran to the entrance to wait for you."

Zhu Fanfan asked, puzzled, "Fu Jing wants you to take me home? Has she lost her mind?"

She didn't take action because she was afraid that Fu Jing would be too agitated and die. They were already like oil and water, and they didn't even bother with formalities. What was she going to do this time?

Xue Zhaodi said, "Based on my understanding of my mother, as long as you give her a little kindness, even if you just keep a cold face and don't say anything, she will think that you are trying to make amends to her. She is particularly oblivious to human language. I guess she sees that Dad is quite afraid of you and wants you to stand up for him."

So sometimes she really envied her mother. No matter who it was, as long as she wanted to repair the relationship, as long as she was a little thick-skinned, others would always compromise.

Just like before, Fei Fei's mother disliked her mother and was always finding fault with her. Her mother also tried to ruin Fei Fei's mother's reputation everywhere. The two of them were almost fighting to the death, all because the younger brother really liked a kind of overseas toy, and only Fei Fei's mother had connections.

Mom rushed to make peace with Fei Fei's mom. At first, Fei Fei's mom had a cold face and never spoke politely, but Mom didn't care and kept trying to talk to her. After chatting a few times, the two made up and Mom even gave her two of the toys that her younger brother liked.

She followed along the whole time. Her mother only said a few words of flattery to Fei Fei's mother, and Fei Fei's mother changed her prejudice against her mother. The two became as close as sisters. She couldn't understand it at all. Just a few words, and they really buried the hatchet and became even closer.

Zhu Fanfan snorted coldly: "Dreaming is faster. If it weren't for you, would she still be alive?"

Xue Zhaodi stopped beating around the bush: "You didn't see the excitement, so let me show you."

Zhu Fanfan looked at Xue Zhaodi with confusion. "Recite it again? Does she have to recite their conversation word for word?"

Zhu Fanfan soon found out, and it was true. It has to be said that the eldest sister's language talent was amazing. She was a true disciple of the ventriloquist, and she repeated the tones of the several people exactly the same.

The incident began when Fu Jing reported her home burgled and the police came to investigate. Since the locks were not broken, they couldn't be sure if the burglar was someone she knew. All the valuables inside were gone, and not a single penny was left behind, indicating that the burglar was very familiar with the house and could not be ruled out as a highly skilled thief.

However, the house was in a mess, which didn't look like a search, but more like an act of venting anger, so it was more likely that it was someone she knew. But when the news reached Fu Jing's ears, it automatically turned into the possibility that it was a thief from inside the house.

Police said there were no footprints in the house, but they still narrowed down the suspects to a short woman based on clues.

When it reached Fu Jing's ears, the summary was that the short woman had stolen from the house because she harbored resentment towards her and wanted to vent her anger. She was also familiar with the house, so Fu Jing immediately identified her as her mother-in-law.

The more she thought about it, the angrier she became, and the angrier she became, the more she thought about it. She kept considering whether to divorce or continue the marriage if her mother-in-law really did it. She was still reluctant to divorce Xue Fu, but if she didn't divorce, the police would definitely not let it go easily. Would arresting her mother-in-law affect their marital relationship?

One minute she says she won't hold it against her mother-in-law if she returns the money, the next she says she must teach her a lesson. She didn't bring Xue Fu food all day because she was so preoccupied with this issue that she forgot.

As for why Xue Zhaodi knew Fu Jing's thoughts, it was because Fu Jing didn't think about them in her heart, but said them to her face.

Zhu Fanfan asked incredulously, "Xue Fu and Luo Xing didn't have any money or coupons on them, and neither of you siblings thought to bring them food?"

Xue Zhaodi said nonchalantly, "I need to comfort Mom. She's not well and can't get agitated. I need to take care of her. As for my sister and brother, one is timid, the other doesn't like to do chores, and my brother is so spoiled that he wouldn't even pick up a fallen oil bottle. What can they do?"

Although it's good to discipline your younger brother early, your mother and grandmother are always watching over him, so they can't let Xue Yaozong do any work. He always beats him in private. She even went to an old Chinese medicine doctor to learn a few ways to hit someone so that the marks would hurt but disappear quickly. Even if Xue Yaozong complained, she would get beaten and then beat him even harder afterward. Sooner or later, he would remember that there are some people you can't mess with. Later, he became obedient and would only look aggrieved when he was beaten, and he wouldn't dare to complain anymore.

The personalities of the two younger sisters have basically taken shape. The second sister has not become bolder and is even becoming bolder. She is afraid to go out by herself. The third sister is lazy, does not like to do housework, and is even less capable of taking care of others.

Because my third sister had previously contracted myelitis and had some minor sequelae, she limped a little when walking fast and had always been somewhat self-conscious. However, she was sweet-talking and made her father very happy, so he sided with her. He was too lazy to care about her when she did housework, and he would give her some pointers as a sign of his kindness. He was the most unreliable person.

As for my younger brother, let's not talk about him.

Zhu Fanfan asked, "What's going on today? Why are those two mountains from the Xin family here?"

Hearing this title, Xue Zhaodi was stunned for a moment, then realized that it was indeed fitting. She was not a member of the Ding family and could not acknowledge her biological father. She could only be sure that she was Widow Xin's child. Her name even contained the character for "mountain," but she was not one of the two mountains of the Xin family.

Xue Zhaodi didn't keep anyone in suspense and told them the story directly.

After thinking about it for a day, Fu Jing finally figured it out. She had to keep going for the sake of her child, so she wanted to have a serious talk with Xue Fu and ask him to return the money. This money would belong to the child in the future, but it had to be in her hands.

When she arrived at the ward, she heard her father and grandmother calling her incessantly. She thought there were other patients in the ward, but when she heard Xue Fu's response, she realized that Xue Fu had an illegitimate child outside the ward.

Hearing the lively commotion inside, Fu Jing was furious. She pushed open the door and went in. Seeing the two children's faces, which looked exactly like Xue Fu's, she immediately started crying and cursing in a wronged mood.

She said she was wholeheartedly devoted to marrying him, but she never expected that Xue Fu would have someone else outside the marriage and even father a child out of wedlock. He cursed her with every swear word she knew, and she became increasingly agitated.

The two men felt that Fu Jing was the reason they couldn't acknowledge their biological father, so they came up and started fighting, repeatedly telling Fu Jing not to bully her father.

Fu Jing wasn't the type to stand up for herself, nor did she hold back because the child was a child. She would grab whatever was at hand and start beating him. Xue Fu couldn't stop her and was hit by Fu Jing several times. Luo Xing was unable to move and could only watch helplessly.

As for Xue Zhaodi, she naturally sided with her own mother and stopped her father. She had always known that her mother was extremely powerful, and with both of them under her control, any resistance would be neutralized by her, leaving her only able to take the beating.
