From Cannon Fodder to '80s Tycoon with My Space Supermarket Chapter 239 - 179: Quibbling (Part 2)
Mrs. Fu thought that she was disguising herself well, but little did she know that her little tricks had long been seen through by the father and son.
Now, this father and son duo share the sa suspicion. They both suspect that the family savings have practically vanished.
Especially Fu Yu, although the two of them haven’t communicated verbally, there was an understanding exchanged just through their eye contact.
Now, Fu Yu also has a vague notion, like Mr. Fu, suspecting whether Mrs. Fu has secretly been giving money to support her brother’s family.
After all, he had previously caught his mom secretly slipping money to his uncle and aunt.
After being caught, his mom even pleaded with him not to tell his dad. Since he thought it wasn’t happening often, he agreed to keep it a secret.
There is evidence for everything.
So at this mont, after receiving a signal from his father’s gaze, Fu Yu spoke up:
"Mom, Dad is right."
"I think he has a point. Over the years, the money I’ve handed over to you should amount to about three or four thousand bucks."
"You two old-tirs usually don’t spend much money. You should both have so sense of the expenditure."
"Apart from the normal household expenses, let’s calculate how much is left of all our savings, so we can make plans ahead of ti."
When Fu Yu said this, he didn’t question all household expenses because he knew well that Mrs. Fu and Mr. Fu had been frugal their entire lives.
Every ti he ca ho, he saw the few vegetarian dishes on his parents’ table, without even a trace of at, and it pained him.
He had advised many tis for Mrs. Fu to occasionally visit the local market, buy so at, make so dumplings for the family to improve their als. After all, at their age, if they don’t eat well now, in a few years, when their teeth beco loose, they won’t be able to bite into anything even if they want to.
By then, it would be too late to regret it.
Therefore, it’s better to enjoy so good tis while still young. After all, their family now has the ans.
However, whenever he ntioned this, Mrs. Fu always had countless excuses, or claid that she was too old and had trouble walking.
Or she would say that money should be spent wisely, and they couldn’t bear to spend it on food.
Or she wanted to save money to build a new house for the family.
No matter how he persuaded, every ti he ca back, there were always the sa few vegetarian dishes on the table.
Despite feeling frustrated, Fu Yu would just take the opportunity every ti he ca back from the sea to buy more at for the family to improve their diet.
Therefore, with such expenses, the household spending should definitely not be high.
If Mrs. Fu couldn’t produce the money due to this, then surely there’s sothing fishy about it, and it’s guaranteed she used the money to support her brother’s family.
Seeing both the father and son saying this, Mrs. Fu was also clear in her heart that this ti, she couldn’t hide it anymore.
Thinking that sooner or later, she’ll be in trouble, the matter of helping her own family couldn’t be kept a secret anymore. It would be better to explain it directly, as she had already been under imnse pressure lately, due to the issue of the family savings.
Moreover, today, the father and son insisted on forcing her to take out all the family savings.
Mrs. Fu gritted her teeth, looking like she was ready to go all out, walked over to the heated brick bed where she usually hid money, and took out all the family assets.
For many years, Mrs. Fu had been using a wooden money box to store money.
She took out the money box, hesitantly handed it over to the second son of the family, and didn’t give it to her old husband.
Fu Yu paused for a mont, but ultimately took the money box from Mrs. Fu’s hands.
As soon as he got the money box in his hands, he could clearly sense sothing was amiss.
The money box didn’t contain much money, as judging from its weight, it was too light.
It didn’t seem like there were many savings in it at all.
