Reborn in the 80s and Remarrying an Officer, Let the Ungrateful Cry! novel Chapter 46

Chapter 46: Chapter 46: Stirring Up Trouble

"What are you doing here?" Yan Hongwei looked at the person at her door with open displeasure.

"Oh, I’m just here to share the good news! Can you believe you all don’t know yet? Fu Mingxue got her marriage certificate today! Her man is a real big shot, I tell you. I heard this guy she found brought a mountain of gifts to her place. Right now, they’re feasting on the best food. So, what’s this? Such a momentous occasion, and you, her aunt, weren’t even invited for the meal?"

"I mean, your husband is still Fu Mingxue’s eldest uncle. It’s the new nephew-in-law’s first visit. At the very least, your husband should be there to have a few drinks with him, right?"

"Anyone who doesn’t know what’s going on would think your two households have completely cut ties—" Mrs. Bai really knew how to stir the pot.

She was inwardly ecstatic when she saw Yan Hongwei’s face flush with rage.

’Yes, get angry! Get furious! Hurry up and take your two wonderful sons to cause a scene at the Fu family’s house.’

’It would be best if you ruined Fu Mingxue’s marriage altogether.’

Yan Hongwei was absolutely furious.

Her anger was, of course, directed at Xu Zifeng and her daughter.

’That damn Xu Zifeng—she has absolutely no respect for our family’s eldest branch!’

She glared at the instigator before her and immediately shot back:

"This is our family’s business, what’s it to you? What, have you forgotten being chased by Xu Zifeng until your legs gave out? Or should I have Xu Zifeng come chase you again with her rolling pin?"

Her words struck a nerve with Mrs. Bai.

Her face instantly darkened.

"—So much for trying to do you a favor! I only came to tell you because I saw you were all being kept in the dark. I didn’t want you to become the town’s laughingstock. After all, Fu Mingxue is part of the Fu family. It’s bad enough she’s getting married without her uncle’s involvement, but to not even tell her own grandparents... She clearly doesn’t think the Fu family is worth a damn!"

"Fine, I’ve said my piece. If you want to be a laughingstock, that’s on you. By the way, I forgot to mention... Fu Mingxue’s new husband is a regimental commander!"

Having dropped that bombshell, Mrs. Bai turned and left.

"—Father, Mother, you’re Fu Mingxue’s grandparents! No matter what, she should have told you she was getting married, right? I thought people were just spouting nonsense before, but I never imagined it was true. They’ve simply gone too far—"

"Go find her. I don’t approve of this marriage," Old Mrs. Fu said, fuming.

"Father, Mother, how could she just get married all of a sudden? Could she have been tricked? Why don’t we all go over and see for ourselves! Right, we should bring more people with us this time."

Having been beaten by Xu Zifeng before, Yan Hongwei was still a little shaken.

She didn’t want to end up like Yan Dan, chased and beaten halfway down the street.

"Old man, what do you think?" Old Mrs. Fu asked him directly.

Old Man Fu’s face was grim. He felt his authority in this family had been challenged.

"We’re going. Let’s go have a look."
