After rebirth, my childhood friend became a clingy person

144

Fu Jiabao got up early in the morning and went straight home without even having breakfast.

"Dad, Mom..."

At this moment, his face was filled with excitement, and there was no trace of the gentleness and elegance he had yesterday.

"What's wrong? You didn't come back all night yesterday. Where did you go?"

In the compound, a shabby wooden door was opened, and a gray-haired woman, about sixty years old, walked out. She was wearing an old flowered cotton jacket that had faded and the original pattern could not be seen.

Although his clothes were worn out, they were clean and tidy, and his gray hair was combed meticulously. He looked very similar to Fu Jiabao, with a gentle temperament and it was obvious that he was well educated.

"Yesterday I went to look for Jiayi's child..." Fu Jiabao calmed down and a look of joy appeared on his face.

"There is absolutely no mistake this time. I slept at his place last night."

"Really? How's that kid? Did he admit his identity as a Fu family member?"

Ruan Yuling quickly took a towel and wiped the water droplets off her hands.

"He should admit it, right?" Fu Jiabao suddenly remembered that he said that he was just Jiang Yannan now, and was a little unsure of what he thought.

However, hearing him call me uncle in person, I think he acknowledged his identity as a member of the Fu family.

"Do you and Dad want to go see him?"

"Forget it, let's wait until he is willing to admit his identity. I don't want to be hated by others anymore."

When Ruan Yuling heard his words, her excited mood suddenly cooled down.

He turned around with the towel and went back into the house. "Hurry up and have breakfast."

On a shabby square table, there was a plate of pickled vegetable dumplings, six corn steamed buns, and two white flour steamed buns.

After everyone was seated at the table, Ruan Yuling served four bowls of porridge so thin that you could see your reflection in it, one bowl for each person.

"Grandma, can you make the porridge thicker next time? I've been running to the toilet all morning after drinking a bowl of this."

Fu Jiajia stared at the bowl of porridge in her hand, which was so thin that there were only a few grains of rice, frowned and said dissatisfiedly.

Last time during work, she was scolded by their team leader because she went to the toilet a little too often.

Ruan Yuling sighed softly. Why didn't she want to eat better? But the old man's illness took up most of the family's money every month, plus all the other expenses. How could the little salary Fu Jiabao brought back and the ten yuan she handed in be enough?

Even these two steamed buns every morning were saved by her by saving again and again.

But now she and the old man have no source of income and can only rely on their own wages. Now that the child has made some suggestions, she cannot help but consider them.

"I see. I'll make it thicker tomorrow." Ruan Yuling thought for a moment, picked up a white flour bun, broke off half of it and handed it to her, "Then don't eat porridge today. Eat some buns to fill your stomach."

"No need, grandma, that's all I said. Save the buns for grandpa."

Fu Jiajia now regretted her impulsive behavior, as she also knew the current conditions of her family.

Her current job was found for her by her grandfather with a thick face. It was as a temporary bus conductor. She was paid 35 yuan a month, and she had to give 15 yuan to the person she replaced. In fact, she only got 20 yuan.

Although the money is not much, it at least adds some income to the family.

"Eat. It's really inconvenient for you to go to the bathroom frequently when you're following the car." Fu Heng'er said slowly, his face pale, as he sat in a wheelchair.

Years of illness and pain have made him look much older than his actual age.

As the head of the Fu family, although he was in poor health, he had the authority of a head of family, and no one dared to refute what he said. He did not make decisions on small matters, but only on big matters.

Since grandpa had already spoken, Fu Jiajia didn't dare to say anything else. She took half of the steamed bun and ate it slowly, but she felt uncomfortable.

"Dad, Mom..." Fu Jiabao drank a mouthful of porridge, thought about it and decided to tell what he knew.

"Well, my nephew's wife seems to be pregnant."

"Who? Who is pregnant?" Fu Jiajia looked puzzled.

"It's your aunt's child. His wife, your cousin's wife, is pregnant."

"Don't mention that man. I absolutely refuse to acknowledge that he is my cousin." Fu Jiajia was furious when she heard it was him.

At that time, their family went to find him happily, but he not only humiliated them in public, but also beat up her father.

She would never acknowledge the identity of such a greedy person.

"It's not the one from before. The Qin family recognized the wrong person before. This child has good character at first glance. He should be your aunt's real child." Fu Jiabao picked up a steamed bun and started to eat it. "I went to find him last night. Although he didn't explicitly admit that he was a child of the Fu family, his attitude was very good, and he even invited me to have dinner..."

"Dad, you can't be bought off with just one meal, right?" Fu Jiajia snorted disapprovingly, "You can only know a person's face but not his heart. How long have you been with him and you know that he has a good character?"

"Okay, stop interrupting." Fu Heng'er said calmly, facing Fu Jiabao with a calm expression, "Tell me the details of your conversation."

Only then did Fu Jiabao recount in detail what had happened last night.

Fu Heng'er nodded, and a look of relief finally appeared on his face.

"This looks like our Fu family's child... Since his wife is pregnant, your mother and I should go and see them.

But now...if we do this, we're afraid they'll think we're going to take advantage of them."

"No, I don't think Ayan is that kind of person." Fu Jiabao quickly shook his head.

Fu Jiajia wanted to speak, but finally held back.

She just rolled her eyes at her father. Her father was even more naive than her and was too trusting. Otherwise, he had worked in the publicity department of the cinema for so many years and his position had not changed until now.

Most of the people who entered after him have been promoted, but he was different. Not only did he not get promoted, but he also offended the leaders of the company because of his excessive kindness. His salary increased in the first few years, but it never changed afterwards and has remained at 58 yuan.

With such a small salary, I often lend it to this person and that person, and no one has ever paid it back.

Otherwise, their family wouldn't be living like this now.

"Whether it's good or bad, we'll tell after your dad and I meet them. You two should hurry up and eat, or you'll be late again."

Ruan Yuling interrupted the two people who were about to continue arguing.

The argument at the dinner table died down at this time. Fu Jiajia looked at the time and realized that she would be late if she didn't go out.

"Grandpa, grandma, dad, take your time eating. I'm leaving first." Fu Jiajia grabbed two steamed buns and hurried out.
