From Cannon Fodder to '80s Tycoon with My Space Supermarket-Chapter 179 - 152: An Unpleasant Name

Chapter 179: Chapter 152: An Unpleasant Name
Not only that, but people also scolded them, saying isn’t this just taking advantage of someone’s daughter? They didn’t invite her, didn’t provoke her, so why put them in this difficult situation?
Even this marriage was arranged by Mrs. Fu, who enlisted several matchmakers and even spent a lot to secure it.
Putting everything else aside, Mrs. Fu was truly devoted to her maternal family, especially her eldest nephew.
She was even more dedicated to him than to her own son.
When Jiang Xin and Fu Yu got married, the wedding organized by Mrs. Fu was extremely hurried.
It was practically a zero-cost wedding.
Everyone in the neighboring villages knew that in this era, whenever there were children getting married, a proper, lively celebration was expected.
But the outcome was that although Mrs. Fu valued her second son Fu Yu the most, she turned his wedding into a mess.
They didn’t buy any new furniture for the house; everything was old and worn out, used for many years.
They didn’t add anything new to the house, and initially, when discussing the wedding, Mrs. Fu didn’t even want to buy window decorations.
In the end, Mr. Fu couldn’t stand it anymore and felt that Mrs. Fu, even if she disliked Jiang Xin as a sudden daughter-in-law,
couldn’t go too far!
There was no semblance of a wedding, no atmosphere at all. On the wedding day, if neighbors came, they would laugh at their family.
Money, as they say, should be spent wisely.
But when faced with major events, one shouldn’t be too stingy either.
No matter what, at least on the surface, things should look decent.
Even if they didn’t like this daughter-in-law at all, their family’s reputation should be maintained.
Otherwise, when neighbors laugh, it won’t be at Jiang Xin, but at the Fu Family.
After living together for so many years, Mr. Fu understood Mrs. Fu relatively well.
He knew she was frugal to the extreme in daily life, always calculating carefully even for a penny.
Even though their second son had earned quite a lot over the years, enough to ensure they lived without worries.
And Fu Yu was generous, never hiding the money he earned, always ing the total to Mrs. Fu, even handing over the bulk to her.
He kept only a portion for himself to cover living expenses and buying essentials.
Also, Fu Yu was very sensible, knowing his parents were getting older.
Gradually losing the ability to earn money, and the family had younger siblings needing school tuition.
No matter what you do, life requires money for everything, so Fu Yu straightforwardly gave a lump sum to Mrs. Fu, letting her use the money he earned to support the household.
At least, it could lessen the burden on his parents.
After all, they were over fifty and deserved to enjoy some comforts.
It’s a pity Fu Yu didn’t know his parents weren’t living well with his money at all.
Every time he earned money, his mother took it to aid her maternal family,
and all these years, the house hadn’t been renovated; thinking about it, it’s laughable.
Especially concerning the wedding arrangements.
Mrs. Fu’s stingeness was simply frightening.
Thus, after Mr. Fu’s persuasion, Mrs. Fu reluctantly agreed to take ten yuan from her wallet and handed it to Mr. Fu, letting him use the money to purchase wedding supplies.
At that time, Mr. Fu was stunned.
He didn’t expect Mrs. Fu to be so unyielding.
Such actions truly surprised Mr. Fu.
Even though prices were low in this era, and items in stores were cheap, ten yuan for wedding supplies was quite absurd.
These ten yuan, to put it bluntly, wouldn’t even be enough as toothpicks.
Mr. Fu had the intention to say more, to persuade Mrs. Fu to wake up.
