From Cannon Fodder to '80s Tycoon with My Space Supermarket-Chapter 250 - 183: Exposed

After the meal was ready, even though Jiang Xin had said she wasn’t hungry and didn’t need to be called to eat.

Mrs. Fu, nevertheless, knocked on her room door and asked her to come out for dinner.

Jiang Xin intended to refuse but was immediately blocked by one of Mrs. Fu’s sentences:

"It’s not easy for our family to reunite today, let’s just treat it as a family reunion dinner, give mom some face."

Upon hearing this, Jiang Xin resignedly climbed off the kang, having just returned from having dinner at a State-owned Restaurant earlier tonight.

At this moment, she really wasn’t hungry.

But after all, as Mrs. Fu had already asked her, she couldn’t really, not give the elderly some face.

After arriving at the dining table, Fu Yu and Mr. Fu were already seated before the table, and Mrs. Fu had served all the ribs from the pot.

Today, with her son home, Mrs. Fu put all her effort into making a delicious meal, not only preparing a stew with ribs but also cooking a dish with the pork belly that Jiang Xin brought back. Besides that, she made a cold dish with the small greens grown in the vegetable garden. 𝚏𝐫𝚎𝗲𝕨𝐞𝐛𝕟𝚘𝐯𝚎𝗹.𝕔𝐨𝗺

It could be said that it was the most sumptuous meal at home in many days.

Mr. Fu looked at the family, all sitting together for a reunion, and couldn’t help but smile.

After smiling, he unconsciously looked up at Jiang Xin, thinking about what she had just mentioned about wanting to divorce his younger son.

Suddenly, Mr. Fu could no longer smile, feeling somewhat troubled.

After a long silence, it eventually turned into a sigh.

Forget it, let the children handle their own matters.

They’re getting old, even if they want to intervene, their ability is limited.

"Let’s eat, it’s rare for the whole family to reunite, so let’s not talk about those depressing topics today."

The meal was tastelessly eaten.

Jiang Xin, as she wasn’t hungry at all, didn’t eat much, just gnawing on a couple of ribs.

As she ate, she thought that Mrs. Fu’s cooking skills were indeed good, comparable to a chef at the State-owned Restaurant.

It’s just a pity that their family’s meals had never been great.

If they had meat every meal, with Mrs. Fu’s cooking skills, eating her food would be quite the enjoyment.

After dinner, thinking about how she hadn’t done anything, Jiang Xin felt it was a bit inappropriate to just go back to her room and lie down, so she voluntarily offered to wash the dishes. Also, she didn’t want to go back to the room too early.

Now, with the sky already turning dark, in these times, there weren’t many ways to entertain oneself.

If she went straight back to her room, she couldn’t avoid having to interact with her unfortunate husband.

Jiang Xin had just mentioned divorce to him, so she really didn’t want to face such a scene; it was too awkward, truly too awkward.

If she had the time, she might as well wash the dishes at home, which could help her escape some reality issues.

But evidently, Mrs. Fu wouldn’t give her this opportunity.

When Jiang Xin offered to wash the dishes, Mrs. Fu immediately shooed her back into her room,

telling her to hurry and get some rest since she had been busy outside all day and was already tired, saying there was no need for her to wash the dishes, as she could handle those few dishes.

Jiang Xin felt a bit at a loss.

It was the first time she proactively offered to help someone, only to be rejected just after she mentioned it.

It was indeed quite embarrassing.

Mrs. Fu shoved her into the room, and not only that, she told Fu Yu to stop talking with his dad; instead, he should spend some time with Jiang Xin, the newlywed wife.

If you have the time, why not nurture the relationship between husband and wife a bit more.

They, the old couple, weren’t going anywhere, so there was no need to squeeze all their time to accompany them.

Moreover, Mrs. Fu was old-fashioned, thinking that as long as the two were locked in the same room, once the misunderstanding was explained, Jiang Xin probably wouldn’t be so inclined to get a divorce.

So, just like Jiang Xin, Fu Yu was also pushed into the room by Mrs. Fu early on.

As the door closed, forming a confined space, the newlywed couple exchanged a silent glance.

After all, they didn’t have much to talk about.

Seeing Fu Yu approaching her, Jiang Xin immediately frowned.
