Chapter 122 It's Impossible to Let Them Eat Their Inheritance
When he occasionally speaks, his voice is so soft it's barely audible, like a mosquito buzzing.
He also lost an arm and became disabled.
There are some things that are hard to say, but he knows what kind of people his elder brother, sister-in-law, and mother are.
They broke their arm, and then they got a quota for a second child? What a coincidence!
"If it really doesn't work out, then so be it. My daughter is still my daughter. In their family, she can inherit the family property just the same way."
Wang's expression changed instantly, and she angrily slapped Pan Hong's arm.
"What nonsense are you talking about? How can daughters be the same? Do you want her to grow up to be like Fu Leyi, marrying a son-in-law who lives with the family?"
"That's fine too."
"Good my foot! Don't you know what a live-in son-in-law is like? Don't you know what his family is thinking? Humph, our family is considered good. Your old woman is still a person with a conscience."
Pan Hong: "..." Do you still have a conscience?
"What if they have no conscience?"
"Hmph." Madam Wang snorted coldly, "If I were heartless, I would let her die in the delivery room, and preferably let her parents die of heartache as well. That child is their only remaining member of the family. You are the child's biological father, so naturally that thing will be in our hands. Don't you think so?"
Pan Hong was horrified. He quickly covered her mouth and whispered, "Mom, thank goodness you have a conscience and didn't really intend to do that. What kind of family are they? They're rich and powerful. It's impossible for them to wipe out our family."
"If I really did that, and they took the child away and kicked me to the curb, never letting me see the child again, then they'd have a conscience. If they didn't, they might make me pay with my life."
Upon hearing this, Wang was immediately terrified.
Because she really thought that way.
But later, she felt that doing so would be too unethical, and since Fu Leyi was indeed very generous to her, she gave up the idea.
Looking back now, my son had a point.
Fu Leyi doesn't just have her parents; her whole family of relatives and friends are powerful and influential.
How could such a family allow their descendants to die out?
"Don't worry, your wife treats me well. I'm not the kind of heartless person. Let's talk about it now: if they really want to go back, how do we get the child back?"
"Mother, why don't we just forget about it?"
"That won't do, it has to be changed."
"But it's so pitiful for my daughter to stay here."
“Your sister-in-law has milk for her, I’ll take good care of her, what are you worried about?”
Pan Hong: "..." He thought to himself, "It's precisely because you're the one raising me that I feel uneasy."
"If all else fails, when they're a bit older, I'll tell them that your older brother and sister-in-law can't support two kids, and that you should take them to the south of the city to raise them. Then the kids will come back to you, won't they?"
Ok?
That makes sense.
Although Pan Hong was persuaded by her, the matter of switching children was still difficult to resolve.
"If she stays here, that's fine, but if she goes back, there's no way to change her. Mother, don't think about it anymore."
“I don’t care, the child has to be replaced.”
"Oh dear, Mother, if they suspect us, forget about changing jobs, you'll have a hard time even maintaining your current lifestyle."
Wang: "..."
"I'm not kidding you. Fu Huaiyi's arrival is acting strangely. They might already be suspicious. Let me tell you, we absolutely cannot let anything happen."
Pan Hong seriously told her what would happen if they found out about this, and after a long talk, he finally convinced his mother.
Wang was extremely unwilling, but she wanted to maintain her current comfortable life and dared not make any rash moves.
Meanwhile, Fu Huaiyi went to a nearby ancient town and actually found a few valuable little trinkets.
He then found a place where he could make a phone call and called Lin Yuyao.
The call was made to the bookstore, and Zhou Jing answered the phone.
"Which one?"
Fu Huaiyi paused awkwardly for a moment before saying, "Sister Zhou, I'm looking for Lin Yuyao."
"You're Xiao Fu? Okay, I'll call him for you."
"Yuyao, answer the phone."
"Who is it?"
"It's from Xiao Fu."
Ok?
They live so close by, couldn't they talk about it after get off work in the evening? Why did they have to call?
"Hey?"
Fu Huaiyi hesitated for a moment, then asked in a low voice, "Is there anyone next to you?"
Lin Yuyao: "..." Are you going to say something shameful?
She had to put it close to her ear to hear it.
"Nobody's here, go ahead and speak."
"I'm at my brother-in-law's hometown."
Lin Yuyao was taken aback. "You saw Sister Leyi?"
"Ah."
"Is she okay?"
"I went to the hospital for a check-up today, and everything is fine. We plan to go back tomorrow."
Lin Yuyao breathed a sigh of relief, "I was overthinking it."
"not necessarily."
Lin Yuyao: “…”
"It's a complicated matter, but if I can go back tomorrow, then it'll be fine."
"Yes, that's true too."
“There’s an old town nearby. I found some trinkets there and will bring them to you later.”
what?
I need to give her another gift?
Lin Yuyao was quite embarrassed.
"You keep giving me things, I don't know how to repay you, so please stop buying them."
“I’ve already bought it.”
Lin Yuyao: “…”
"It's a pity you can't see it now; you would definitely like it if you could."
"What is it?" she asked, intrigued.
Fu Huaiyi said, "I'll tell you when I get back."
After chatting for a few minutes, he hung up the phone.
Pan Xiaohua was waiting nearby. Although she couldn't hear what they were saying, she could tell that he spoke very gently.
Moreover, the voice coming from the other end was female.
Is it a girl?
My mother even said that she would marry him in the future, but he already has a girl he likes, so why would she marry him?
After they got back, Wang pulled her aside and asked, "How did it go? Is there any chance for you two?"
Pan Xiaohua said angrily, "What a load of rubbish!"
Wang: "..."
"How dare you talk like that? I told you to be gentle. You're a fool to expect anything from someone like that."
"Oh dear, let me tell you this, when I was with Fu Huaiyi I was very gentle, but the key is that he completely ignored me. He only said two sentences to me, one was 'lead the way' and the other was 'wait here,' and there weren't even enough to count on my fingers."
Wang's lips twitched, thinking to herself, "This guy is useless. How come he's been gone for so long and only said a few words?"
Don't you even know how to chat?
However, seeing her daughter's angry expression, she comforted her, saying, "I think that young man doesn't talk much; maybe that's just his personality."
"No, he bought some trinkets that girls like in town and made a phone call. I didn't hear what they said, but I could tell that the voice on the other end was a woman's."
"what?"
"I think he might have someone he likes, so I'd better give up."
Wang pursed her lips, thinking to herself that her son hadn't told her about such a big thing.
No, she'll have to ask her about it later.
"Pan Hong, does your brother-in-law have a girlfriend?"
"No."
"That's not right. Your older sister said he called a girl and bought her some little trinkets that girls like."
