Transmigration: On the Gossip Front-Chapter 894 - 895 Toxic Fatherly Love 27

Wu Jian hasn’t been in a good mood lately. Originally, Wu Min’s classes had all been discontinued.

He didn’t care much at first, as long as his own classes continued. But unexpectedly, some of his classes were also discontinued, with the reason being lack of money.

He thought it was because of Wu Hao, leading to the suspension of some classes. Only now did he realize that the real reason behind the suspension of all the classes was Feng Min.

Wu Min was the most hurt. If Wu Jian still had some classes continuing, all of hers had been completely stopped.

"Mom, where’s your money? Where did your money go?" Wu Min couldn’t hold back and shouted, "Didn’t you say the money you earn isn’t less than Dad’s?"

"Yeah, Mom, where did your salary go?" Wu Jian had a suspicion and believed he knew where Feng Min likely spent the money.

But he still couldn’t believe it. Why would Feng Min treat the Feng Family members so well? Clearly, he and his sister were her children, the ones who would take care of her in her old age. How could she be so cruel?

Feng Min didn’t expect Wu Hao to bring this issue up in front of the two children. Her expression immediately darkened, "Wu Hao, how can you say this?"

"There’s no other option. Some matters have to be revealed, or else they’ll really think it’s me who’s stopping them from attending classes. What else can I do?"

"Xiao Jian, Xiao Min, your mom would rather buy cars for your uncle’s family and pay for your cousin—that is, your little cousin brother’s tutoring—than pay for you two to attend extra classes."

"I can’t help it. After all, the money is in her hands. How she spends it is beyond my control."

"Alright then, let’s figure out which classes you absolutely need to take."

"Forget the extracurricular art classes. Those are just money pits." Wu Hao preemptively stopped them, worried they might choose those courses.

"It’s not that I don’t want to. If I could, I’d gladly provide. But right now, the cost of attending classes is rising."

"With household expenses and your tutoring fees, we can only be more frugal." Wu Hao was frank. His income was low, and he couldn’t cover everything.

"Dad, I understand." Wu Jian and his siblings were touched and chose the courses most important to them.

"Speaking of which, for this year’s New Year’s Eve dinner, we’ll go to Grandma’s place. On regular days, we’ll just cook something simple at home."

"With the money we save, we’ll buy clothes. You two haven’t gotten new clothes this year." Only then did Wu Hao realize how outrageous Feng Min had been—even failing to buy clothes for the kids.

He was really on the verge of losing it. Originally, he thought Feng Min’s behavior was shocking enough. But he hadn’t expected her to go even further.

Since Feng Min was acting so unreasonably, why should he give her face? Wu Hao directly revealed where Feng Min had spent all the money.

Feng Min stared at the furious Wu Hao. She knew that he was truly angry today. "Why are you so mad? I’m supporting my family, but haven’t you supported the Wu Family too?"

If he was going to accuse her, then she wouldn’t hold back either. She tore off his mask without hesitation.

"Yes, I’m supporting them. But am I neglecting the children?"

"We agreed you’d cover household expenses. How much have you truly covered?"

"You’re also reluctant to contribute for the kids’ tutoring fees."

"The money I give my parents isn’t much. At least I remember I have two kids."

"And don’t start bringing up the chores you do or anything like that—you know very well how much you actually do."

"I’ll go talk to my parents and let them know we’ll start eating at their place instead. It’s close anyway."

"I’ll handle the living expenses."

"As for the household water and electricity bills, I’ll cover those too."

"I’ll take responsibility for the children’s expenses. You spend your own money as you wish. If you feel guilty and want to spend on the kids, that’s your decision."

Wu Hao took a deep breath, "In the future, if Xiao Jian and the others don’t treat you well, don’t come complaining to me about how the kids are unfilial. As a mother, you haven’t treated the children well, so don’t expect them to treat you kindly."

"You’re entirely devoted to your parents, your brothers, and your nephews. Your retirement and old age should depend on them." Wu Hao put down his warning in advance.

He didn’t want Feng Min to grow old and have the Feng Family members neglect her, leaving Wu Jian and his siblings to bear the burden.

Feng Min panicked, "It’s not like I haven’t pitched in. I’ll pitch in! I’ll pitch in!"

No matter how much Feng Min helped her family, wasn’t she aware of her own household’s situation?

Of course, she knew. She also understood perfectly well that when she grew old, the only ones who could take care of her would be her own children.

Left with no choice, Feng Min finally had to relent. What else could she do? Naturally, she indicated she’d pay.

"Alright then, let’s discuss the costs of tutoring for the two kids now." Wu Hao struck while the iron was hot, handling this in front of the children.

Feng Min originally thought Wu Min was just a daughter and wasn’t worth spending too much money on. But in front of the kids, she truly couldn’t say such things aloud.

In no time, they finalized plans for the kids’ tutoring. Looking at the course schedules and fees, Feng Min felt like crying.

These courses cost no small amount of money. Combined with household expenses and her own needs, Feng Min realized that supporting her family even a little would now be under immense pressure.

But she couldn’t backtrack now. The two kids were clearly harboring strong opinions against her.

"What about New Year’s gifts?" Feng Min asked hopefully, looking towards Wu Hao. "I haven’t bought presents for my parents either."

To this, Wu Hao simply smiled, "We’re already managing our own money separately. Your family is your responsibility."

"I’ll handle my own parents." His words made it clear that he wouldn’t spend on her parents.

"Also, when it comes to year-end goods, don’t buy too much." Wu Hao knew this was an expense that couldn’t be entirely avoided.

Feng Min thought that after making compromises, Wu Hao would show her some leniency.

But unexpectedly, he still didn’t budge. This infuriated her to no end.

She wanted to blow up but, seeing Wu Hao’s calmly smiling face, could only grit her teeth and hold back.

Zhang Yu had no idea that Wu Hao and Feng Min were arguing about money once again. Meanwhile, she was having a great time in Hainan.

Most people who visit Hainan go to Sanya, which is a famous destination. Zhang Yu had spent a few days there before moving to a small city near Sanya.

That area had wonderful scenery, fewer tourists, and most importantly, low rent prices. Seafood and fruit were also cheaper compared to Sanya.

Li Cuifen had prepared herself to spend a lot of money, but to her surprise, the prices here were amazingly reasonable.

After buying more fruit and seafood, she said, "Tonight’s New Year’s Eve dinner will all be seafood. The prices are so affordable."

"Exactly, the air here is nice too. It’s great." Zhang Yu knew Li Cuifen would definitely be pleased.

"Next year for Spring Festival, let’s go somewhere else—maybe Guangxi or Yunnan."

"Sure." Li Cuifen, who initially didn’t want to travel because she thought it would cost too much, now wholeheartedly agreed, realizing that traveling didn’t have to mean spending a fortune.
