From Cannon Fodder to '80s Tycoon with My Space Supermarket Chapter 83: The Lady Boss Was Frightened

Moreover, Fu Yu hasn’t returned from his voyage yet.

So, the money Fu Yu originally left with Mrs. Fu has mostly been used to support her own family.

Now, the money in her pocket is almost running out.

If Fu Yu doesn’t co back soon, they might not even have money to buy rice.

After all, even if the old couple is frugal, living expenses are inevitable.

That’s why Mrs. Fu is so reluctant to spend even a single penny.

She doesn’t want to live like this, but there’s no choice; after all, she only has one brother.

If her only brother doesn’t live well, their ancestors wouldn’t be at peace underground.

So, Mrs. Fu thinks, what isn’t she satisfied with right now?

Her sons are all successful, and although their family is a bit tight financially, they’re not starving.

She was careless this ti. When her brother asked for money, she was anxious and gave away the savings.

She even forgot to keep the living expenses for her own family.

Moreover, among that money was the dowry originally ant for Jiang Xin.

Mr. Fu is still unaware that Mrs. Fu withheld the dowry intended for Jiang Xin.

Mrs. Fu never intended to tell Mr. Fu,

Otherwise, given Mr. Fu’s temperant, he would definitely deal with her.

And he would inquire about where the money went.

She didn’t dare to honestly tell Mr. Fu that she used the money to support her own family.

If she did, there would be a huge uproar, and their days would be impossible to live.

Mrs. Fu thought, as long as Jiang Xin doesn’t communicate with them, Mr. Fu will never know.

Although Mrs. Fu tends to be quite troubleso, she understands her old man well after all these years as a couple.

His values are very upright.

He can’t tolerate any unethical actions in their ho.

Otherwise, when she was caught stealing Jiang Xin’s things through the window, Mr. Fu wouldn’t have been so furious.

So Mrs. Fu intended to keep the withholding of the dowry from Jiang Xin a secret no matter what, so Mr. Fu wouldn’t find out, or she’d be ruined.

Mrs. Fu felt assured about this because of Jiang Xin.

Because unless they actively talked to Jiang Xin, she wouldn’t respond to the old couple.

This made Mrs. Fu’s psychological burden much lighter.

But now, she really has no money left, and thinking about the rice and flour in the kitchen running out soon, with Fu Yu not returning for at least half a month, Mrs. Fu frowned.

If her relationship with Jiang Xin as mother-in-law and daughter-in-law was better, she could have asked Jiang Xin for so money to help out with household expenses.

But now, the problem is their relationship is extrely poor.

So this route simply won’t work, and Mrs. Fu can only think of other ways.

Mrs. Fu gritted her teeth, thinking about how she had gone through harder tis in the past, why be afraid of these couple of tough days now?

Ultimately, they wouldn’t starve to death, and the potatoes and sweet potatoes at ho could fill their stomachs.

So Mrs. Fu wasn’t worried about this at all.

Mrs. Fu looked at the new clothes she had just stolen from Jiang Xin’s wardrobe.

She thought happily, she would take these new clothes to her niece’s family.

There’s no doubt that when she arrives, her sister-in-law and mother will be thrilled.

So Mrs. Fu eagerly went with Jiang Xin’s new skirts towards her family.

Mrs. Fu’s family lived in the neighboring village; they lived near the entrance, so it took about a ten-minute walk to reach them.

When Mrs. Fu got married, her parents considered this factor, wanting her to marry closer to ho to help if anything arose.

As a result, she married to the neighboring village, and the support aspect indeed worked out.

Unfortunately, Fu Yu ended up being the one who suffered.

He worked hard, going to sea, risking his life to earn money for the family.

Yet the hard-earned money ended up being used by his mother to support her family.

Mrs. Fu went towards her family happily.

...

On the other side, Jiang Xin arrived at the market early in the morning.

After the past few days of exercise, walking to the market every day, Jiang Xin felt her stamina improved compared to when she just arrived.

At least after walking so far, she didn’t feel breathless anymore.

This proves that exercising more really has benefits.

On the way, Jiang Xin realized sothing. She indeed got up early and ca to the market.

But the breakfast stall owner’s wife sells breakfast, so she sets up her stall very early each day.

By the ti Jiang Xin arrived, it was the breakfast rush hour.

At that ti, the stall owner’s wife was undoubtedly busy with bowls and dishes everywhere, lacking ti to talk to her.

After so hesitation, Jiang Xin walked on and decided to first check the situation at the market.

After all, she didn’t know how business was for the breakfast stall owner’s wife today. If there were many custors, she could wait aside or help with tasks she could manage.

She indeed owed much gratitude to the breakfast stall owner’s wife for renting the desired house early.

Without her, she wouldn’t have rented the ideal house so early.

After arriving at the market, Jiang Xin looked around and saw quite a few people, so she wandered a bit, eventually reaching the stall.

To her surprise, the stall wife’s business was so-so today, with only a few scattered custors, so she managed busying herself there.

Jiang Xin stood nearby for a while, and once the stall owner finished busying, she ca over to talk.

The breakfast stall wife was busy when she caught a glimpse of Jiang Xin, surprised.

The stall owner quickly imagined sothing wrong.

Jiang Xin ca over clearly to find her.
