The 70-Year Family Lets You Take Charge (Female Dominant) - Chapter 58
Chapter 58
“Quick, where did you get so much money from?!” Ningning stood with his eyebrows furrowed, looking particularly dignified.
With Su Ming holding the chubby one in her arms, who now had not just one but three chins, she looked chubby and cute.
She was now imitating Ningning’s way of speaking, saying “Ah… ah…”
Even though none of the words were correct, the tone of the chubby one couldn’t be more like Ningning’s.
Su Fei sat on the sofa, bowing her head with a guilty look, unable to speak, knowing that whatever she said would be wrong.
“I think I know what’s going on. It must be my sister’s recent novel payments. She’s been very famous lately,” Su Ming said, holding the chubby one with one hand and expressing her thoughts, then quickly switching hands.
After Su Ming finished speaking, she looked at Ningning’s sharp eyes that instantly turned to her. Hugging the chubby one tightly in her arms, the weight gave her a sense of security.
Su Ming put the chubby one on the sofa, and somehow, she also squeezed onto the sofa. The three women bowed their heads together, silent.
Ningning, hands on his hips, kept talking non-stop. From ancient times to the present, he enumerated their crimes, truly deserving of the highest condemnation. They were unworthy of Heaven and Earth.
“Alright, I’ll spare you this time. Quickly bring out all your money. What do you need money for? You can tell me, but you’re not allowed to keep any secret money,” Ningning finally stopped his lecturing, feeling a bit parched, and decided to end today’s sermon here.
“Yeah, yeah, don’t worry, all the money from now on will be put into your account,” Su Fei quickly reassured, relieved that it was over.
“Hmm, the posture of admitting mistakes is not bad,” Ningning nodded, quite satisfied, although he hadn’t thought about it in this matter because he also knew that Su Fei had no other intentions.
“Since that’s the case, I’ll go out and take care of things. You stay at home and look after the chubby one. She needs to drink milk and eat complementary foods, which you need to prepare for her. Remember, the food you make for her must be without salt, without any seasoning. She’s only allowed to eat a small bowl, and you’re not allowed to give her more,” Ningning packed up and prepared to go out to find Xiao Huang to discuss buying houses this time. After all, Su Fei was still the head of the household, and for such important matters, Ningning still listened to Su Fei.
“Ah, no… no!!” The chubby one watched her father about to leave and quickly reached out her hands, her two chubby arms raised high. She wanted to go out with him.
“Stay with your mother at home, understand? Daddy has to finish his work before he can come back. Be good, take care of yourself,” Ningning kissed the chubby one who looked aggrieved before leaving.
After the three of them saw off the big boss Ningning, they finally breathed a sigh of relief and sat back on the sofa.
Su Fei put the chubby one on the sofa and let her cry. She reached out to give her a piece of sweet potato dry, letting the chubby one teethe on her own.
The chubby one was very easy to please, sitting nicely with just a piece of sweet potato dry. All her focus, all her attention, was concentrated on this piece of sweet potato dry. Eating while lying down, eating while scratching her feet, she mastered all eighteen skills.
“I was so scared. Brother-in-law is really terrifying. I must find a gentle husband in the future. They say you’re afraid of your husband, how can you be afraid? Are you really a woman?” Su Ming looked down on Su Fei, who was afraid of her husband, because in her eyes, and in the environment she lived in, all men obeyed their women.
“Nonsense! I love my husband and can’t bear to see him sad.” Su Fei sat on the sofa with her legs crossed, looking like she was the boss.
“Humph, then why were you silent just now? Didn’t dare to say a word, not even a single word,” Su Ming teased, ready to banter.
“…Haven’t you heard a saying? ‘Confess your deposits and sit through your sentence, resist and face stricter punishment.’ I didn’t speak because I wanted this matter to pass quickly, and besides, I didn’t do anything wrong. I just forgot to report where the money came from,” Su Fei sighed deeply, feeling completely innocent. She was just such a selfless and good person.
“Well, what you said makes sense. I find that no matter what, you’re always right. I can’t argue with you. No wonder you’re so good with words. Whether it’s right or wrong, it’s always in your favor!” Su Ming admitted defeat, feeling that this visit was purposeful and not just for fun.
“What’s the matter with you coming over? You’re not the type to visit without a reason. What exactly is the matter with you coming over this time? Don’t talk about your business first, let me talk about mine. If anyone else comes to me because of your family’s trivial matters, don’t blame me for not recognizing you,” Su Fei said coldly, why should they come and pick on her, did she bother anyone?
In this world, people are born for fame and profit. She was treated like a pushover just because her abilities couldn’t match up to the Su family’s.
“Don’t worry, I’ve settled it completely. She won’t stir up any trouble anymore. That impostor, without any ability, she can’t hold onto a mountain of gold.” Su Ming looked down on that woman, and now, she had used all her abilities to completely drive that person away.
“Someone above asked me to find out why you didn’t go abroad to accept the award. And this is also a matter of national glory, everyone is looking forward to seeing you receive the award,” Su Ming knew this was a matter of national glory, and in the current situation, as long as it was about China, whether it was for the Su family or for Su Fei herself, it was a very good thing.
“I’m not going. Haven’t I made it clear already? And I’ve also told the school. You can go and check with these author associations or other award-giving organizations that sent me messages. They don’t have any reputation at all; they’re just self-entertainment associations. If it’s a large-scale international author association or literary award, I will definitely attend. Using these awards actually can damages my reputation,” Su Fei knew that reputation was something that diminished with use.
“Oh, is that so? I didn’t know. Alright, since there’s a reason, I’ll go back. I won’t let anyone else come to bother you,” Su Ming suddenly realized, they were family after all, and she knew Su Fei wouldn’t lie to her.
“Okay, if there’s nothing else, just hurry up and leave. If not, you can stay here and watch the child for me. I want to go to sleep,” Su Fei didn’t want to talk anymore, feeling tired.
“…Uh… forget it, I came to take a few pictures, I’ll go back and show them to our mom. This is her first granddaughter!” Su Ming skipped over this topic directly, finding a new topic, and took out her camera. Having a camera in this era was something only very wealthy families could afford.
The chubby one was picking at her own feet, happily falling asleep. Even after falling asleep, she continued to chew on the tasteless sweet potato dry in her mouth.
Moreover, she wouldn’t allow anyone to take away that piece of sweet potato dry. If someone tried to take it away, she would keep humming in her blanket. And with a series of hand movements and kicks, she could drive anyone crazy.
“Yeah, my niece is really, really special and unique! So unique,” Su Ming kept talking while taking photos.
“Yeah, don’t you think the chubby one is just too cute now? She’s chubby and cute, chubby and adorable, making it impossible for people to resist. But you don’t know how annoying she can be when she’s awake. It’s really frustrating,” Su Fei was also obsessed with the chubby one’s beauty. She was so adorable, but such an adorable child could make such terrifying screams when she woke up.
Su Ming was done with whatever she needed to do and whatever she needed to ask. She didn’t plan to eat at Su Fei’s house anymore. She brought over some nutrition supplements, baby formula good for infants, and a series of other things like toys, all for the chubby one.
After this news spread to the top, everyone understood that this matter couldn’t be messed around with. Moreover, Su Fei didn’t intentionally refuse to go, but she had her own thoughts.
And there was also some power from the Su family, so the higher-ups didn’t dare to force Su Fei to do things she didn’t like.
But many people didn’t know about this, and most people were still focused on the matter of national glory. When they heard that Su Fei refused to accept the award, they felt it was really inappropriate!
Many angry young people went to Beijing University to demand a clear answer. They insisted that the national rewards must be received, as they belonged to the entire nation’s honor.
