"Thank you for taking care of Ruo Ruo all these years." Fang Wanting's voice was filled with gratitude.
The villagers still did not let down their guard.
Ruo Ruo's background had been circulating on the internet, and the villagers already knew everything. They even imagined Ruo Ruo to be a pitiful little girl.
Having a stepmother meant having a stepfather. Wasn't she a pitiful little girl?
"Oh," Aunt Mei said softly. Her sharp gaze scrutinized the beautiful woman. "You're Ruo Ruo's black-hearted stepmother!"
Fang Wanting looked helpless. People's hearts were biased. They had been with Yun Ruo for a long time and were closer to her. They understood how they felt about protecting Yun Ruo. Since ancient times, it had always been difficult to be a stepmother. No matter how she tried to explain, she would only be seen as quibbling.
Fu Zonghong glared at the old woman in dissatisfaction. "How can you say that?"
Fu Zonghong had been in a high position for many years. He had an imposing aura that made people tremble. "Did that unfilial daughter go around badmouthing her stepmother?"
"And who are you?"
"I'm her father!"
Aunt Mei placed her hands on her hips and said loudly, "Our Ruo Ruo is gentle and beautiful. She never badmouths people behind their backs. She has never said anything bad about you in front of us. Just based on your current attitude, I know how much Ruo Ruo has suffered here!"
Fang Wanting patted Fu Zonghong's hand, indicating that he should not be calculative. Even if Fu Zonghong pointed at her nose and scolded her, she still kept a low profile. "As her elders, we are also at fault. We didn't communicate well with our child and caused her to run away from home for more than four years. It's our fault."
"No matter what, Yun Ruo is Elder Fu's daughter. I hope that the villagers can let us see her and have a good talk. For the past four years, seeing how Elder Fu has been so worried about our child, I also feel bad … "
Fang Wanting said sincerely, "As long as she can understand her father, I will apologize to Yun Ruo properly …"
Aunt Mei scoffed. "You speak as if you have been wronged. Who is the one suffering here? What do you mean by running away from home? Aren't you the ones who forced her to leave? "
"If she doesn't leave, she will lose her life!"
Fang Wanting frowned. "We didn't know that Yun Ruo had such a misunderstanding about us, but this is a society ruled by law. Who dares to harm other people's lives? This is a crime punishable by imprisonment …"
A middle-aged man hesitated and said to Aunt Mei, "Sister-in-law, is there some kind of misunderstanding?" Ruo Ruo's stepmother didn't look like someone who would torture her stepdaughter.
"Hey, did you forget what happened to Yingko seven years ago?"
After being reminded by the villagers, everyone remembered.
Yingzi had also been tortured by her stepmother for many years. In the beginning, she treated her stepdaughter very well in front of outsiders. The neighbors were also deceived. Later, when the matter was exposed, they were all shocked.
That stepmother also looked gentle and kind in front of outsiders.
Later, she found out that Yingzi was poked with needles by her stepmother every day. Behind closed doors, she was either beaten or scolded. She did all the work.
However, when the truth was revealed, Yingzi had already jumped into the river. She couldn't be saved. After an autopsy, she was found to have needle holes all over her body. The police said that she had been abused for many years.
That stepmother's image was too good to outsiders. They didn't expect her to torture her stepdaughter like that.
Occasionally, the neighbors would wonder why a child in her teens was so thin and small. To outsiders, she said that the child was picky about food and wanted to lose weight.
Her relatives and neighbors also saw that her stepmother was kind enough to give her chicken drumsticks and meat. However, she didn't eat them and only ate vegetables. Because of this, they felt that Yingzi was immature and kindly told her not to go on a diet.
It wasn't until she died and the police came to investigate that this evil behavior was exposed.
Didn't Ruo Ruo have the same experience as Yingzi?
They didn't know if Ruo Ruo had been abused, but this stepmother's face was very similar!
Moreover, Ruo Ruo's father didn't look like he was here to look for his daughter. Instead, he looked like he was here to seek revenge.
In an instant, everyone's hostility towards Fang Wanting's group grew.
Fu Zonghong's expression was impatient. These villagers were too unruly and unreasonable.
However, they had the numbers advantage. Fu Zonghong didn't bring many bodyguards with him. He could only be passive.
If Fu Yun came out at this time …
She opened the courtyard door and suddenly saw a large group of people outside. Her heart skipped a beat.
"What's wrong?"
She looked around and then saw a group of people surrounded by people. It was a very conspicuous group of people.
Fu Yun was in a daze for a moment before she remembered this face. Wasn't this the original owner's father?
Fu Yun was surprised. However, when she saw the few people standing beside her father, she didn't feel surprised.
Fu Zonghong saw the woman who walked out of the courtyard door. When he saw that face, he was in a daze. At that moment, it was as if the scene had reappeared. He saw Sang Qing walking towards him.
Sang Qing was his first wife. They were in love. When they were young, they were also passionately in love. They entered the palace with longing for the future.
Unfortunately, later on …
Fang Wanting saw Fu Yun Ruo and went forward in surprise. "Are you Yun Ruo? It's really you! I've finally found you! "
"You unfilial daughter! You've left home for so many years. Are you looking down on me? "
Fu Zonghong shouted a few words. He was already prepared to quarrel with Fu Yun Ruo until his face turned red. However, Fu Yun Ruo, who used to quarrel with him every time, just looked at him calmly. Her eyes were clear and cold.
Fu Zonghong's mind went blank for a moment. He didn't know why, but he suddenly felt a sharp pain in his heart.
Fu Yun Ruo looked indifferent. "What are you doing here?"
Fang Wanting said helplessly, "Yun Ruo, no matter how angry you are with me, you can't joke about yourself. After you left home for so many years, your father thought about you day and night …"
"Is that so?" Fu Yun Ruo raised her eyebrows. "I thought that without me being an eyesore, your family of three would be living a happy life!"
"What are you talking about?" Fu Zonghong shouted.
Fang Wanting smiled bitterly. "There's no overnight feud between father and daughter."
"If there's any misunderstanding, let's talk about it …"
"There's no misunderstanding." Fu Yun Ruo smiled. "If you really care about me so much, you should have come to look for me in the four years that I've been away."
"Parents who care about their children will be very anxious if they can't contact their children for three to four hours. If they can't contact their children for 24 hours, they will call the police. What about you? I've been away for more than four years, but you didn't come to look for me. Ha … "
She felt that it was ironic that he thought about her day and night. He probably treated her as if she didn't exist, right?
Although Fu Yun Ruo deliberately hid, if this father really cared about her, he should have at least called the police when he couldn't find her, right?
At that time, she scrolled through the news every day. Chairman Fu still went to work as usual. The entire Fu Corporation was peaceful, as if nothing had happened.
No one looked for her, and at that time, her tense nerves did relax. But sometimes, when she thought about it, she felt that it was unfair for the original body.
Fu Zonghong was so angry that he was trembling. "You're the one who ran away from home, and you still think you're in the right? I'm just too good to you, so you don't know the hardships of the world. Without the Fu family, look at how you're living! "
Fu Yun Ruo felt sad for the original body. This was her father.
He lost contact with a weak woman, but he wasn't worried about the danger she might encounter. Instead, he felt that he could let her experience the hardships of life.
Looking at it this way, the situation she was worried about when she first came here might be true.
He didn't care about his biological daughter for so many years, so it wasn't strange that he would chase his daughter out of the house.
No wonder the original body's personality was getting more and more extreme, and even her biological father was so cruel.
"I'm fine now." She couldn't be bothered to talk nonsense with them. The more she talked, the worse she felt. "What exactly do you want to do by lowering yourself to come here?"
Fang Wanting looked worried. "Yun Ruo, we're here to take you home. You've been angry for so long, so it's time for you to calm down, right?"
Fu Yun Ruo said, "That's not my home, so why should I go back? Aren't I just looking for trouble? "
"Sister, Uncle … really wants you to come home." Fang Xue Ruo said in a low voice, looking a little timid.
"I can go back if you want, as long as these two eyesores don't appear in front of me. I don't like them. Oh, if you can't bear to part with them, you can go with them. "
Fu Yun Ruo said indifferently.
"What kind of attitude is that?" Fu Zonghong was so angry that his face turned red. "This is your mother and sister!"
Fu Yun Ruo looked up. "My mother has been buried for many years. Is this woman my mother's reincarnated body? She even gave birth to a sister for me? "
"Mr. Fu, what are you saying about my mother? No wonder people are saying that this Mrs. Fang is your first wife, and that Miss Fang Xue Ruo is your only biological daughter. So it was your idea? Aren't you afraid that my mother will climb out of the ground and look for you? "
"What nonsense are you talking about?"
Fang Wanting felt a chill run down her spine. She forced a smile and said, "Yun Ruo, I don't mean to replace my sister. It's all a misunderstanding."
"Then it's true. Mr. Fu, what about you? Did you know? "
Fu Zonghong was in a daze. It seemed like someone had said that before. How did he respond at that time? He probably didn't care.
"Do I have to explain myself over such a small matter?" In Fu Zonghong's opinion, this small misunderstanding didn't affect anything. The truth was the truth.
"Ha!"
Wen Wen's face was pinched for a long time. His small body exuded an aura of hopelessness.
He didn't feel any pain, but his white and tender cheeks flushed as the slightly calloused fingertips gently caressed his face.
Wen Wen sighed like a little adult. He had sacrificed a lot, but it was all meaningful.
Noticing that his mother had gone out for a long time and hadn't returned, Wen Wen couldn't sit still anymore. He stood up and was about to run out.
However, Si Yue grabbed him by the back of his collar in time.
Wen Wen's short legs were still running in place. He turned his head and looked. "Uncle Yue, I want to go out!"
"Don't run around."
"I'm not running around. I'm going to the courtyard!" Wen Wen said anxiously.
"I'll be back soon. Uncle, look after the meat. Don't burn it!"
Si Yue pulled out the half-burnt firewood and left only a small flame. Then, he led Wen Wen out.
When they reached the courtyard, they didn't walk out. Instead, they stood behind the door and listened to the group of people talking outside.
When Wen Wen heard that so many people were surrounding his mother, he couldn't take it anymore. He quickly broke free from Si Yue's hand and ran out to stand in front of Fu Yun Ruo. He opened his arms wide and glared at the group of people in front of him. "Don't bully my mother!"
Fu Zonghong looked at the child who looked exactly like Fu Yun Ruo.
"Whose child is this?!" Fu Zonghong was so angry that his face turned red. His whole body was trembling and he felt dizzy.
Fang Wanting stepped forward and held his hand while trying to calm him down.
"Who is that wild man?!" Fu Zonghong was furious.
When Fu Yun Ruo saw Wen Wen running out, she couldn't be bothered to scold him. She quickly pulled him over and let him hide behind her.
After that, Si Yue also walked out. Fu Zonghong flew into a rage. "It's this man?"
Si Yue looked at the group of people and smiled.
"It's none of your business," Fu Yun Ruo said coldly. "If there's nothing else, then take care. I won't send you off. It's not convenient to keep guests at home."
Fu Yun Ruo didn't want this matter to be mentioned again and again. She also didn't want her son's background to be discussed.
When she turned to the villagers, Fu Yun Ruo's expression was gentle. "Thank you all for today."
"It's okay. It's what I should do."
"Don't worry. If anyone dares to bully you in our village, I'll teach them how to behave."
Fu Yun Ruo thanked the villagers and led Wen Wen into the house.
Fu Zonghong shouted angrily, "Stop right there!"
He went forward to stop Fu Yun Ruo, but was blocked by Si Yue.
"Chairman Fu, please have some self-respect."
"Sister …" Fang Xue Ruo bit her lip and raised her voice slightly as she shouted at Fu Yun Ruo's back. "If my leaving makes you happy, I'll leave!"
Fu Yun Ruo pretended not to hear and didn't give any reaction.
Si Yue waited for the mother and son to enter the house before she went in and closed the door.
Fang Xue Ruo lowered her eyes sadly.
Chang Zhu You hugged Fang Xue Ruo and shouted at the courtyard, "Fu Yun Ruo, you evil woman. Don't be so ungrateful!"
The villagers were just watching the situation unfold, but when they saw their attitude, they couldn't stand it anymore.
"What's wrong? There's strength in numbers! So many of you ganged up to bully a weak woman. I think you don't care about us at all. "
"Is this the younger sister who stole her stepsister's husband?"
"She's a celebrity. How shameless."
"He's not her husband yet. I heard that he's her fiancé."
"People in the city love to use such titles."
"If she were here, she would have been drowned in everyone's saliva. How could she still have the face to stay here?"
"The father is so biased. His stepdaughter stole his biological daughter's husband, but he's still on his stepdaughter's side and scolded his biological daughter. Indeed, with a stepmother comes a stepfather. This pillow talk is really powerful!"
"This woman is really scheming. I couldn't tell!"
The villagers booed.
"That's not all. The first wife's daughter and the first wife's deceased wife have been squeezed out of this family. This is the first time I've heard of this. "
"Yes."
The villagers didn't bother to hide their loud voices. Everyone present heard them clearly.
Chang Zhu You saw that Fang Xue Ruo's face was red and her eyes were filled with tears. He immediately said hatefully, "What do you bunch of unruly people know?"
Aunt Mei said disdainfully, "We don't know any great principles, but at least we know what etiquette, honor, and shame are."
"That's right. She still claims to be a well-educated tycoon. She doesn't even have morals. Pfft!"
"Like daughter, like mother. If her daughter is such a trash, her mother must not be a good person either."
"This man is also a piece of trash."
"Poor Ruoruo. How could she be so unlucky to meet such despicable people? If I were her biological mother, I wouldn't be able to rest in peace. "
Fu Zonghong and the others' faces were contorted. They wanted to defend themselves, but the villagers didn't listen to them. They only cared about talking loudly.
In the end, Fu Zonghong left with an ashen face.
"Old Fu!" Fang Xue wanted to chase after him worriedly.
Only after the group of people left did the villagers disperse.
Not far away, three young men were lying in a corner. They were trembling with excitement as they watched the camera footage.
Breaking news!
Si Yue was there too!
They were going to be famous!
