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

”Mom, that’s right. This is the betrothal gift money. My mother gave it to me herself.”

Qin Wenhao turned to look at Fu Mingxue. ”The password is six zeroes. You should memorize it. You can spend this money however you like; don’t worry about it too much. Also, the next time I come, I’ll let you manage my stipend. I’ll just keep a little for daily expenses.”

Fu Mingxue, who was still dazed, snapped back to her senses when she heard this.

She immediately shook her head quickly. ”No, don’t. I’ll be going to school, so I won’t be able to take care of— the household. And aren’t there two children at home? You can’t skimp on them. You need to make sure they eat well. You should keep your stipend.”

”I—”

Fu Mingxue thought of something and raised the bankbook in her hand, which felt like it was burning a hole in her palm.

”—I have this money. It’s so much, I can’t possibly spend it all...”

’Heavens, this really is too hot to handle!’

’After all, she was the one who forced this marriage.’

’And it was only temporary.’

’How could she take so much betrothal money from him?’

’Her conscience would kill her!’

’She had to find a chance to return this betrothal money to him.’

’Besides, she still had the eight hundred yuan that Bai Siqi and Song Yan paid her in compensation!’

’That was more than enough for her.’

’Even if it wasn’t enough, she couldn’t possibly touch this money—’

’How awful would that be? Forcing him into a—marriage, and then spending his money? That was just unacceptable.’

Mrs. Fu also chimed in quickly, ”That’s right. Use your stipend to raise the children. Mingxue has her own money. And if that’s not enough, she has me! I’ll pay for all her university expenses for the next few years. She’s my only daughter; all my money is for her—”

”That won’t do—” Qin Wenhao naturally disagreed with the idea of his wife spending her own family’s money.

It wasn’t that he was being a male chauvinist.

He just couldn’t let his mother-in-law support his wife for him.

No matter what—he couldn’t bring himself to do that.

”Why won’t it do? She’s my daughter, so it’s only right. Besides, I’m earning money now and don’t have much to spend it on. When I’m old and can’t earn anymore, won’t I have to rely on you two to care for me in my old age?”

Fu Mingxue couldn’t stand hearing words like that. ”Mom, why are you talking like that? Don’t talk about ’the end’ and all that. You have to live to be a hundred.”

Mrs. Fu shot her a look. ’What’s the point of living that long?’

”Alright, that’s settled. I have to get back to cooking. The chicken is still stewing.”

Mrs. Fu started toward the kitchen, then suddenly remembered she was still holding the watch. It was a valuable item, so she needed to put it away safely in her room.

”What I just said is true. My stipend is sixty yuan a month now. I only need to keep thirty for expenses at home, and I’ll give the other thirty entirely to you. Also, I’ve saved up quite a bit over the years, and with what my grandpa and grandma have given me, I still have—”

Fu Mingxue was stunned!

She couldn’t listen anymore and quickly cut him off, ”Stop. Don’t tell me all this right now. We can talk about it later—yes, let’s just talk about it later—”

’Heavens, a man so eager to hand over his money... she was actually very tempted.’

’Maybe... she should just—keep him?’

Qin Wenhao gave her a deep look.

He could see her resistance.

But—it seemed he had forgotten to tell her that a military marriage couldn’t be dissolved so easily.

Besides, she was the one who had sought this marriage, but ending it would be his decision to make.

From the moment they got their certificate—he had never once considered divorce.

In his family, there was no divorce, only widowhood!

So, unless he died.

”—Since you’re not in a hurry, that’s fine.”

”However, there is one thing I need to say.”

”What is it?”

”It’s like this. When I went out to make a phone call earlier, I told my family we got our marriage certificate. Since you’re heading to Beijing City for university, would you be able to stop by my family’s home first?”
