ore off the check, dropping it at Fu's father's feet. "This money should last you for a while."Upon hearing that there was money, Fu's parents' eyes lit up. They hurriedly picked up the check and, upo...Mother Fu frowned slightly, dissatisfied. She wanted to scold, but thinking about needing this daughter's help with money, she could only hold back. She forced a patient tone and replied, "Yes, your brother's girlfriend is pregnant, and the two of them are planning to get married, but they still don't have the money for the dowry or the house. You see..."

Fu Xiaoyao's heart sank to the bottom of a well, "Dowry and money for buying a house"

"Indeed." Mrs. Fu nodded repeatedly.

Fu Xiaoyao's hand holding the phone trembled slightly, "Mom, why are you asking me for this money It's Zi Xuan's wedding. You and Dad are his parents. He doesn't have money, so it's only right that you, as his parents, should pay for it. As his older sister, I can give a certain amount of gift money, but I'm not obligated to pay for everything. What do you think, Mom"

Fu's mother's face immediately darkened. "I said I said you weren't going to give it, were you"

Fu Xiaoyao lowered her eyes, “Mom, I don’t have money. How can I give it Although I married into the Lu family, everything in the Lu family has nothing to do with me. You know this, right”

"Humph, I know that, but you'll always be the mistress of the Lu family. I don't believe your husband wouldn't give you a single penny." Mrs. Fu sneered coldly.

Fu Xiaoyao's lips curled into a bitter smile, "Mom, you were right, he really didn't give me a single penny."

Three years ago, Lu Hankan couldn't stand to see her, not even wanting to meet her once. He firmly believed she married him for money, so how could he possibly give her money to use

But she herself had no intention of taking his money.

Moreover, she still owed him millions and had no idea how to repay him.

"What did you say" Mother Fu was startled, "Your husband didn't give you money"

"Yes, that's right. If you don't believe me, you can ask him yourself."

"This..." Mother Fu was a little at a loss.

She knew her daughter had signed a property agreement with the Lu family, but she never expected that the Lu family would not give a single penny.

As expected, the richer they are, the more stingy they become. For three years now, they haven't even acknowledged their in-laws.

"So Mom, this time I really can't help." Fu Xiaoyao said wearily.

But Mrs. Fu was unwilling to give up, "Even though you have no money, you are still the daughter-in-law of the Lu family, ask your son-in-law, he won't refuse you."

"What do I want" Fu Xiaoyao laughed in exasperation, "What on earth would I want"

"Of course, just tell him directly. If he doesn't give it to you, go to the company and ask for it. Let his colleagues know that he won't even give money to his own wife. Then when he loses face, he won't refuse you, will he" Fu's mother offered a suggestion.

Fu Xiaoyao was almost driven mad, “Mom, what are you talking about You can't come up with such terrible ideas! If I really did that, how would the outside world view me How would they view the Lu Corporation Once the Lu Corporation’s reputation is damaged, I would become the scapegoat. He wouldn't hesitate to divorce me.”

"What This... This is so serious" Mother Fu was stunned.

Fu Xiaoyao closed her eyes, forcing the anger in her heart down. "What else did you think"

"I thought this would get me some money..." Fu's mother said weakly.

Fu Xiaoyao felt a pang of sadness, "Money, money, money, is all you care about Is money the most important thing in your hearts I've given you all this money over the years, it adds up to two or three hundred thousand, at least. But have you ever considered me From childhood to now, haven't you even said a word of concern for me Am I really your daughter"

"You little brat, what nonsense are you spouting" Fu's mother, like a cat whose tail had been stepped on, suddenly shrieked. "You're not my daughter, whose daughter are you"

Fu Xiaoyao didn't hear anything amiss, she smiled bitterly, "Since I am your daughter, why do you treat me like this Why can't you consider me"

"Who made you a daughter If you were a son, I would treat you better." Mother Fu replied with some evasive eyes.

"So, in the end, it's because I'm not your son that you treat me like this" Fu Xiaoyao bit her lip tightly.

"Alright, alright, stop with all this talk. Let's figure out how you can get money from your son-in-law. Zixuan's dowry and house add up to over a million yuan..."

"What" Fu Xiaoyao interrupted her in astonishment, "Over a million How could you go rob them!"

“You little brat, what are you getting all worked up about” Mother Fu scolded impatiently. “What’s a hundred thousand It’s nothing! Your brother-in-law could easily give you more than that. Besides, you are Zi Xuan's sister and brother-in-law, you should support him, especially since this is his wedding, not just spending money frivolously. Your husband-to-be should agree to it.”

“I don't know if he'll agree. Anyway, I won't get involved in this. If you guys are serious, just lend Xuezhen money for the wedding yourself. If not, just go to the Civil Affairs Bureau and get a marriage certificate. I won't tell Hanchuan, nor will I ask him for money.” Fu Xiaoyao said ruthlessly.

Fu's mother was furious, "You little wretch, what are you saying You don't ask your son-in-law for money, do you want to see your younger brother's child aborted That girl said that if there's no dowry and no house, she will have an abortion."

"Then just get rid of it. You guys can't afford to raise a child anyway, you'd be better off not having one. Besides, I want to see if she will actually go through with it." After saying that, Fu Xiaoyao angrily hung up the phone and turned it off.

She didn't understand why she had ended up with such parents. They never cared for her, never protected her, and worse, they constantly drained her.

Just because she's a girl

If she could, she really wouldn't want to be born into the Fu family, but there are no ifs in this world.

At this thought, Fu Xiaoyao only felt utterly exhausted. She tossed her phone aside and curled up on the sofa, shrinking into a ball, her eyes blankly staring at the television across from her.

The TV was playing a very popular comedy show, but she couldn't laugh. She was feeling depressed.

At this moment, there was a noise from the entrance hall.

Fu Xiaoyao raised her head in puzzlement and looked toward that place.

The door opened, and a slightly chubby figure walked in, carrying a bag of vegetables and a small suitcase in her hands.

Seeing this figure, she let out a slight sigh of relief, and the heart that had been lifted returned to its place.

She still thought it was Fu's mother and son, Fu Zixuan, who had come.

But thinking about it, it's impossible. They don't know her address.

It was the phone call just now that made her feel on edge.

"Aunt Song," Fu Xiaoyao suppressed the emotions in her heart, barely raising a smile and calling out to the person who came.

Aunt Song saw her and smiled, "Madam, so you're here."

"I've been here all along, but how did you get here You brought so many dishes, and what's with the suitcase" Fu Xiaoyao got up and took the suitcase from Song Yi, asking curiously.

Aunt Song smiled and replied, “This dish was sent by my husband. As for this suitcase, he also asked me to bring it. It's all his clothes inside.”

"Wait, his clothes" Fu Xiaoyao was stunned for a moment, then she understood what it meant, her eyes widened. "He... he wouldn't want to move in here, would he""That's right, don't you have any explanation for me about this What about this!"She took out her phone from her bag, found the picture Tang Yi had sent her, and then enlarged it and held it in front...
