After being reborn, I decisively broke off my engagement and married a cold-faced military young mas

Chapter 133 Shooting yourself in the foot

Fu Huaiyi nodded with a smile, "That's true, we need to solve the problem of food and clothing first. My grandmother actually minded my grandfather's hobbies, and she always scolded him for collecting junk. Because when they were young, our family wasn't well-off either, and he spent money on some meaningless things, so the family had to save money, which was really not good."

Oh.

I didn't expect the old man to have such a strong addiction.

“I’m not as addicted as him.” Fu Huaiyi quickly explained, afraid that she would misunderstand, “I would definitely not let my wife and children scrimp and save to support my hobby.”

Lin Yuyao: "..." Why talk to her about this? Isn't it a bit too fast? She doesn't seem to have agreed to anything.

Fu Huaiyi added, "My grandfather wasn't that unreliable. He wouldn't have dared to buy things like this when my grandmother was alive."

Fu Huaiyi suddenly recalled the scene of his grandfather secretly buying and stuffing the items into his schoolbag, which caused him to develop these bad habits as well.

"Yaoyao, if you... if you mind, I won't buy it anymore."

Lin Yuyao shook her head and said, "It's nothing."

I thought to myself, as long as it's not a hobby that betrays my family, what's the big deal?

"As long as it's not lent out, it's fine."

Fu Huaiyi immediately understood the meaning of those words.

"Don't worry, I definitely won't be like Lu Jiangting."

He doesn't even have money himself, yet he pretends to be rich, and he's even so outrageous as to trick people out of their dowries and lend them out.

Only someone with a screw loose would do something like that.

“The relationship between Lu Jiangting and Fang Qing may not work out,” Fu Huaiyi suddenly said. “Perhaps Lu Jiangting said something to Lao Wang and convinced him.”

Lin Yuyao was taken aback. "How could it not be? Fang Qing won't let him get away with this."

Fu Huaiyi nodded. "I've heard about it too. Fang Qing has called Lu Jiangting many times these days, but Lu Jiangting hasn't answered a single one. Now Lu Jiangting is avoiding her like she's a monster."

Ok?

"He's not answering Fang Qing's calls?"

"Yes, I guess they're scared."

Lin Yuyao: “…”

“It seems you were wrong before. You really wronged Lu Jiangting. His taking care of Fang Qing and her son was probably to repay a debt of gratitude,” Fu Huaiyi said.

Lin Yuyao gave a mocking laugh. "How could you wrong him? He's just selfish. After weighing the pros and cons, he felt that Fang Qing was indeed not good enough for him. He's too greedy; he wants everything."

He now feels that Fang Qing is not good enough for him.

If I don't break off the engagement, he'll feel unworthy of me once I've lost my value.

Fang Qing had relied on him for half her life, satisfying his vanity as a man.

He's retired now, and he's taken in the woman who's depended on him for half his life. For him, this life is perfect.

Lu Jiangting will become more and more selfish as he gets older.

Fu Huaiyi thought about it seriously for a while, then nodded and said, "That's true."

Wanting both fame and fortune is just greed, isn't it?

Lin Yuyao said, "We've come this far, just watch, Fang Qing won't give up."

As she said this, her eyes gleamed with a sense of vengeful pleasure and a desire to watch the spectacle, which made her seem quite lively.

Fu Huaiyi then realized that she cared so much about these two people.

"You really enjoy watching them get married?"

Lin Yuyao nodded and said, "Yes."

"why?"

"It's good that they can get married; they won't have to ruin other girls' lives."

“Lu Jiangting has stopped seeing Fang Qing and won’t even answer her calls. It seems like he has really changed.”

Fu Huaiyi kept looking at Lin Yuyao as he said this.

It was also a way of testing her.

What she cared about most was that Lu Jiangting was too considerate of Fang Qing and her son. What if Lu Jiangting changed?

Just as Lu Jiangting said, their years of relationship were just a result of some misunderstandings.

If Lu Jiangting changes, would she still be willing to reconcile with him?

"I won't make up with him." Lin Yuyao seemed to have guessed his thoughts and said, "Didn't I tell you before that I had a terrible dream?"

Fu Huaiyi took a deep breath and nodded knowingly.

"So you want to see what kind of treatment Fang Qing will receive once she becomes a member of the Lu family?"

"Yes, she used to be so jealous that I was able to marry Lu Jiangting, and she always said I was lucky. Now that I've given her that luck, let's see if she can have a good time."

Fu Huaiyi thought of Lu Jiangting's family. His father was in poor health, his mother seemed to have some eye problems, and Lu Jiangting was their only son, born late in life.

In other words, his parents are not young.

In rural areas, it's believed that a daughter-in-law must serve her parents-in-law until they die.

So, if you look at it that way, Lu Jiangting's family is a huge pitfall for ordinary girls.

Everyone who has Lu Jiangting is unlucky.

No wonder she so desperately wanted Fang Qing and Lu Jiangting to get married.

……

Just as Lin Yuyao said, Fang Qing would definitely not let Lu Jiangting off the hook.

It's no use him hiding and refusing to come out.

Fang Qing's work was affected by the rumors, and she was pointed at and talked about when she went to work.

She's not in a good mental state, and she's slow-witted and keeps making mistakes.

After making five mistakes in one day, her supervisor lost patience and decided to report her to higher management and fire her.

"What? You won't let me do it anymore?"

Fang Qing's face turned pale as she stared in shock at the serious-looking middle-aged woman in front of her.

This is the store manager.

"Okay, you don't need to come tomorrow. Go get your wages in a bit."

"I...I'm sorry for all those rumors..."

“It’s not about rumors,” the other person interrupted her.

Fang Qing wiped away her tears and said, "Manager, it's not easy for me to raise my child alone. Could you please take care of me a little more, considering my family's financial difficulties?"

The store manager became even angrier when the topic of their care for her came up. She said, "You are a martyr's widow, raising the martyr's child alone. It's truly admirable, and we respect you greatly. That's why we've already taken such good care of you."

You haven't read many books, that's okay. I'll arrange the simplest weighing job for you, and I'll have someone teach you for three days. You said your child goes to kindergarten and you have to pick him up, so you can't take shifts because your child has no other relatives.

Considering the hardships you and your child are going through, I've already allowed it, even if it means the martyr's heart is broken. Everyone else has to take turns resting, and weekends are the busiest time, so no one can rest. But I've arranged a 9-to-5 schedule with weekends off just for you, because I'm worried that your child won't be taken care of.

Considering you have children, we've arranged for you to work later and leave earlier than them, and you even get weekends off. Tell me, how much more should we take care of you?

Fang Qing nodded.

"I know, I know you've been very kind to me, but... but... please give me another chance."

“How am I supposed to give it to you? You’ve been causing serious trouble for everyone lately because of your repeated mistakes at work. Do you know that because you weighed the wrong White Rabbit candies yesterday, the accounts didn’t match up after get off work, and several of your colleagues were kept behind to check the accounts until 10 p.m. They also have children, and their children are crying for food at home.”
