Chapter 4 - Deep love between father and daughter

She originally thought that she would put her luggage back in her house first and then tell her parents that she was back, but unexpectedly, she met Min Wangyue.

Well, now she has another title: fraudster.

Oh, life.

Grandma Feng confirmed again and again and was relieved when she saw the mediation letter in Feng Xinyao's hand. "As long as it's not a scam, I'll tell them right away to save them from talking nonsense."

Feng Xinyao was tired and was very hungry. She asked if there was anything to eat at home.

Grandma Feng said there was none, so Feng Xinyao had to order takeout.

After eating and taking a shower, she finally laid down on the bed and fell asleep. When she woke up the next day, her phone was exploding.

She looked at the more than a hundred missed calls and was a little confused. There are unfamiliar numbers: old classmates, best friends, and neighbor Kang Qin.

She was not in a hurry to call back, clicked on Kang Qin's WeChat message, and was dumbfounded. She called in a hurry, and Kang Qin came up and said, "I heard that you sexually harassed your tenants?"

Feng Xinyao felt like the sky was falling. How did this news spread?

She tried to calm down and asked Kang Qin where she got the news and why she didn't know.

Kang Qin said that her cousin's mother-in-law's good match was Wang Kun's grandmother, Mrs. Pang. Mrs. Pang took the mediation letter issued by Feng Xinyao's grandma to prove to everyone that her granddaughter was not a fraudster but just harassed a man.

Feng Xinyao was struck by lightning. This explanation might as well say that she was a fraud.

Xu Pei was on duty at the hospital yesterday and didn't come back until early in the morning. She took a shower and went to bed as soon as she walked in. She collapsed on the bed, so tired that she didn't notice anything wrong with her husband at all.

When she got up at noon, her husband had gone out and was not at home. Only her daughter, whom she had not seen for a long time, was lying on the sofa, playing with her mobile phone. Xu Pei rubbed her eyes in surprise, thinking she was dazzled, but when she saw that it was really her daughter, she became confused after the surprise.

"When did you come back and don't say a word?"

"Yesterday."

When she came out, her daughter had already changed her position to lie down. Xu Pei couldn't help but preach, "Laying down and playing with the phone like this is bad for the eyes."

Feng Xinyao sat up and said, "Mom, you know dad rented out my house?"

Xu Pei was confused for a moment, obviously unaware.

Feng Xinyao sighed. Her mother was busy with work and did not pay attention to small changes in the family, which sometimes made her feel helpless.

Feng Xinya's helplessness made Xu Pei slightly embarrassed. She smiled and said, "If you rent it out, you can rent it out. It will just gather dust if you leave it there, so it is better to rent it out and make some money."

"But my father didn't give me any money. I didn't even receive a single yuan. Mom, do you think my father has someone outside?"

It doesn't matter if her father cheats her by renting out her house, but cheating on her mother?

She is no longer afraid of people knowing that she is with the police. Now her circle of friends in Pudong[1] has long exploded. Everyone is asking who she harassed.

Feng Xinyao has no dignity to go out, so she simply stays in the house and hides for a few days. God, just wait until the heat passes.

Xu Pei's expression changed slightly when she heard this.

She took a look at herself in the mirror. She had a lot of bags and dark circles under her eyes because she stayed up late on duty, and her hair was a mess. She was originally just pretty, but she was introduced to Feng Changyu because she had a good career as a surgeon.

Feng Changyu's family was in good condition, and he worked for the government at first. More importantly, he was handsome and had many girls who liked him. Now that he is getting older, he still maintains the habit of fitness, practices calligraphy all year round, and has an elegant temperament that still easily attracts women outside.

When her daughter suddenly said this, Xu Pei's mind was spinning. While taking ingredients from the refrigerator, she laughed at her daughter's nonsense, not afraid that her father would hear her and punish her.

Feng Xinyao looked at her mother like this and didn't know if she listened to her words. She suddenly felt bored and continued to turn over and lie down.

Seeing her daughter like this, Xu Pei asked her, "Yaoyao, what do you want to eat?"

"Hmm. Pork ribs."

Xu Pei nodded. "By the way, when are you going back to work?"

Feng Xinyao told her mother about the experience of his boss being stabbed to death.

Xu Pei was stunned for a moment, suspecting that her daughter was deliberately deceiving her.

Seeing that she didn't believe it, Feng Xinyao showed her the video of his boss being stabbed to death by his wife. Xu Pei took a deep breath and became concerned about his daughter's health.

"I'm unemployed and homeless now. Mom, please take me in for a while."

Xu Pei couldn't help but raise her hand and then muttered that she didn't listen to the advice. She refused to apply for civil service exam for nursing when she was asked to do so and went ahead and applied for a civil service exam for business administration. Learn to paint; do some art. As a result, she chose a major with no future and was eventually laid off at this age. 

Feng Xinyao was heartbroken; Xu Pei couldn't stop talking and complained that she refused to go back to her hometown to take the civil service exam. Now that she is old, the competition is very stressful. How can she win over those young children who have just graduated?

The treatment of fresh graduates is definitely different from that of a social worker like her taking public exams. She didn't stop talking, as if she wanted to nail Feng Xinyao to the pillar of shame, and wrote on her epitaph that this was the result of not listening to the old lady's words.

Feng Xinyao finally couldn't stand it anymore. "Mom, do you know that father was beaten at the police station by someone else's husband last night because he touched his wife's butt during a square dance?"

A dead Taoist friend is not a poor Taoist.

The dad and daughter have fulfilled their filial piety.

Xu Pei's nagging mouth suddenly became silent. She looked at her daughter for a while and then called her husband in a hurry. As a result, her husband didn't answer, and Xu Pei didn't care about cooking anymore.

She threw a hundred yuan on the table. "Yaoyao, just go and order takeout." 

Xu Pei then stormed off.

Feng Xinyao was still shouting from behind, "Mom, don't think nonsense. It's all other people who are pestering my dad. My dad is really clean, and the police proved it last night."

The more she spoke, the more annoyed Xu Pei became.

Xu Pei wished that her daughter would shut her mouth. After giving her a fierce look, Feng Xinyao immediately shut up, respectfully handed her mother the handbag, and watched her go out.

She stood on the balcony and saw her mother going out. She anxiously sent a message to her father: "Dad, something big has happened. It's urgent. Please answer the phone quickly."

A few minutes later, her father called and asked her what was wrong.

"Give me all the money you earned from renting my house, and I'll tell you what's going on."

The person on the other end was silent for a few seconds. "Yaoyao, it hasn't been possible recently. All my money is in the bank for financial management, and I would suffer a loss if I took it out at the same time."

Feng Xinyao was silent. "If you give me two thousand, I will tell you."

Feng Changyu transferred five hundred yuan to her, not wanting to talk about it.

Looking at this stingy number, she smiled viciously and said, "Mom knows that you seduced someone while square dancing and were sent to the police station. I'm looking out for you dad, so you can take care of yourself."

Feng Changyu trembled and asked, "I didn't say anything about what you did. Damn it? I didn't say anything about you."

Feng Xinyao opened her eyes and pursed her lips to stop herself from laughing as she said nonsense: "Of course I didn't say it; it was Grandma Pang who saw it. She also told grandma about my bad luck last night. Dad, I am your caring little cotton-padded jacket [2]. How could I lie to you?"

Feng Changyu wondered who Grandma Pang was.

NOTES:

1. pudong- a district in shanghai on the eastern side, an ultra-modern business hub full of high-rise buildings including several of the world's tallest

2. little cotton-padded jacket- This term has been used metaphorically by the Chinese to refer to daughters, who are often considerate and heartwarming, and therefore are compared to a "padded jacket in winter" for parents.
