From Cannon Fodder to '80s Tycoon with My Space Supermarket Chapter 243 - 180: IOU

Mrs. Fu suddenly sent all the family’s savings to her own family, which man wouldn’t get upset about that?

If he weren’t too old, he would have certainly gone to Mrs. Fu’s family today to make a scene.

Just to question which family can be so shaless, letting their daughter support them like this.

Fu Yu and Mr. Fu exchanged glances after hearing Mrs. Fu’s words, both seeing resignation in each other’s eyes.

After all, this issue really couldn’t be handled. If Mrs. Fu had been honest with them sooner, it wouldn’t have been this embarrassing now.

For many years, who knows how Mrs. Fu gave money to her family when she was supporting them? If it was cash, given the shalessness of her grandmother’s family, the money is likely unrecoverable.

But if it were a bank book, transferring through the bank might hold so hope.

After all, if it was cash, her grandmother’s family would certainly not acknowledge taking so much money from them over the years.

So, Fu Yu couldn’t help but ask aloud:

"Now, it’s too late to say anything. We’d better think of a way to get that money back. After all, our family isn’t a charity. That money was earned through my hard work, not blown here by the wind. We can’t just give it all to their family."

If they can’t get it all back, at least getting so part of it would help.

At the very least, it could improve their living standards a bit.

After all, right now, the entire family fortune amounts to just fifty bucks combined.

Living costs money, and although in this era fifty bucks isn’t a huge amount, normal families can scrape it together with so effort.

Money isn’t sothing that lasts when spent. If they want to build a house, they can’t avoid tussling with her grandmother’s family.

But there’s no way around this issue.

Upon hearing her son wanting to go to her grandmother’s family to reclaim all the money she gave them over the years, Mrs. Fu was genuinely stunned, never thinking her son would make such a demand.

Get all the money back?

Is that realistic?

If possible, that would be great!

If this was in the past and Mrs. Fu hadn’t gone through that event a couple of days ago, if she heard her son wanted to ask her family’s money back, she would definitely try every way to stop him, even scolding her son for being unfilial, trying to drive his old mother to death.

But now, she’s already seen through her family’s true nature.

Why would she stop him?

She thought, all these years, she’s supported her family enough. Even though the hope of getting the money back is slim, she has to try.

So Mrs. Fu slamd the table and said loudly to her son:

"In the past, I misjudged, thinking your uncle’s family was good, but recent events have really disheartened . I’ve cut ties with them."

"If we can get the money back, that’s great. If we can’t, I really don’t know what to do, mom." She said while crying her heart out, her sobs growing louder.

Fu Yu listened on the side, furrowing his brows, unsure of what to say to comfort his mom. After all, in their male way of thinking, crying is the least effective thing. Crying doesn’t solve problems; finding solutions does.

So in the end, all the words converged into just one sentence:

"Alright, mom, please stop crying."

"Let ask you a question first. All these years, how did you give money to uncle’s family?"

"Was it cash or through bank transfer? If it was the latter, maybe there’s a chance to get it back."

"Or, when you gave money to uncle’s family, did they give you an IOU?"

Fu Yu paused after speaking half of it, hesitantly adding the last sentence.

Although he thought the hope was slim, he still wanted to ask, just in case they did write an IOU?

In that case, getting the money back would be sowhat easier.

When Mrs. Fu heard this, she suddenly rembered sothing, then rushed forward and grabbed the cash box from Fu Yu.
