Synopsis: Xu Shanshan was born deep in the mountains, where roads and minds were both closed off. Her parents, who hadn't given birth to a son, were called "childless," while the alluri...

Chapter 3737【VIP】

After Liu Ruo's wedding, Xu Shanshan and Fang Zhiwen didn't rush home, but instead took Youyou on a tour of Suzhou City. Upon their return, everyone was pleasantly surprised to discover Youyou could call her "Mom"—a voice so sweet and tender that it filled Xu Shanshan's heart.

Fang Yuanzhou hugged his granddaughter and said, "Good Youyou, call me grandpa."

"muamua"

Little Youyou twisted and turned in his grandfather's arms, his little head chasing after his mother, bubbles occasionally blowing from his mouth. Fang Zhiwen, amused, leaned forward. Unbelievably, little Youyou couldn't see his mother anymore and immediately burst into tears. Peng Shuya wordlessly pulled her son aside, and now that he saw his mother, little Youyou giggled again.

Fang Zhiwen pinched his daughter's nose and said, "Youyou, the movie queen, are you acting with your dad?" He teased her by touching his forehead to hers and even grabbed her little hand and bit it hard.

Everyone's eyes were on adorable little Youyou. Xu Ruyi quietly returned to her room, undressed, and rubbed her back with gentian violet. Zhao Jian was truly insane, picking on her for no apparent reason. Wasn't he about to marry Zhou Yun? Why was he picking on him again?

Fortunately, I didn't suffer any loss and I even beat up that grandson's eyes.

Even as she tried to comfort herself, she grimaced in pain. Her younger sister offered to help her investigate the cause, but she had no idea how far they'd come. What a fool! If his family didn't know her second brother-in-law's grandmother, she'd break their legs with a massive iron bar.

After applying the medicine, Xu Ruyi put on a thick coat and then went back to the living room to play with Youyou.

Maybe Youyou hadn't seen Fourth Aunt for a few days, so he was jumping happily on her. Because she was injured, she couldn't help but let out a soft "ow" in pain when she exerted force.

Fang Zhiwen picked up Youyou, patted her little butt, and then asked, "Ruyi, are you hurt?"

Xu Ruyi discussed it with her sister and decided to handle the matter herself so as not to cause trouble for her brother-in-law. So she immediately denied it, saying only that she had accidentally twisted her muscles.

"If you don't tell the truth, then I will call you sister."

"Hey, hey, hey, brother-in-law, I had a fight with someone. Don't tell my sister, so she doesn't worry."

Fang Zhiwen readily agreed to this. He asked curiously, "I noticed you have a good relationship with people in the hospital. Why did you get into a fight?"

"It's not from our courtyard. It's, oh, that Zhao Jian."

"Which one?"

"Zhao Jian, that's the blind date that Grandma Liu introduced to me before."

Fang Zhiwen frowned, puzzled. "Didn't you turn it down that day? How did he find you? Wasn't it a blind date? Why did you two end up fighting?"

In his previous life, Zhao Jian acted like a decent person before getting married, and deceived both him and Shanshan. Why did they start fighting in this life?

Xu Ruyi quietly told her second brother-in-law about the matter. Finally, she scratched her head and said, "He's about to marry Zhou Yun, and I don't know why he's so crazy that he comes to scold me."

"Zhao Jian is getting married to Zhou Yun? Why haven't I heard of this before?"

"Zhou Yun came to me and said that herself."

Fang Zhiwen couldn't figure out the twists and turns here at once, so he said, "Don't go out for the next few days. I'll buy the groceries this morning and bring them back. We'll talk about it after I've sorted things out."

Xu Ruyi nodded and said that her younger sister Xu Meili had also asked someone to investigate.

Fang Zhiwen expressed his understanding, but the next morning he went to Daximen Alley and complained to Liu Cui'e. Liu Cui'e complained, "Your aunt is such a fool, always meddling in other people's affairs. And Zhao Jian is such a weirdo, he even dared to hit someone. Okay, I'll run the trip for you."

"Grandma, you really can't go on this."

Liu Cui'e sat back down and asked, "What's wrong? What's the story here?"

Fang Zhiwen told his grandmother what he had learned in his previous life. Liu Cui'e covered her mouth and said with wide eyes, "Oh dear, Zhiwen, don't talk nonsense. If it gets out, people will come knocking on our door."

"Grandma, have I ever told you a ghost story?"

Liu Cui'e thought, her grandson really doesn't use words to coax people. Now she was really upset. She almost did something bad with good intentions, and delayed the life of a good girl. But this matter was too private, how could she know.

"Grandma, my aunt has to step in on this matter. She definitely knows the inside story."

"Impossible?"

Fang Zhiwen sneered twice and said, "If there's any good one, my aunt would be willing to introduce her to Ruyi? She has a lot of nieces and nephews on her mother's side, don't you know how to introduce her to someone?"

Liu Cui'e listened to her grandson's words. When her second daughter-in-law came home from get off work, she deliberately said, "You should go to Zhao Jian's house quickly. Old Zhao came home today and was furious. He said you were dishonest and leaked the secret."

"If I hadn't stopped them, they would have come to your workplace and slapped you in the face."

"Yuemei, you're hiding something as big as Zhao Jian's?"

With this trick, Sun Yuemei really let the cat out of the bag, and her grandson really told her how she could be so cruel.

Liu Cui'e told the old man about this, and Fang Yaorong said angrily, "The second brother's family is getting more and more confused. They are stupid and evil-minded. Are they dissatisfied with the Zhiwen family's life? Wasn't Ruyi injured? Go ask the second brother for 20 yuan for medical expenses."

"so much?"

Meanwhile, Sun Yuemei went to the Zhao family to apologize. By acting rashly, she had ruined Zhao Jian's marriage. Zhao Jian's mother was a fierce woman, and she would criticize her whenever she got a chance, but she really didn't mean it, and she still said something.

On the other hand, Xu Meili also found out about the Zhou family and learned the news. According to the fourth sister, Zhou Yun was originally planning to get married happily, but now the marriage suddenly fell through. That must be...

Originally, the fourth sister had no grudges against Zhao Jian, but as soon as Zhou Yun broke up, Zhao Jian started to cause trouble for her.

Xu Meili guessed that the problem was with the Zhou family, and she told her second brother-in-law about her thoughts.

Fang Zhiwen didn't expect Xu Meili to be so capable. Not long after arriving in Lin City, she had already accumulated her own network of contacts.

"Meili, leave the rest to me. You and Ruyi should stay out of this, and don't tell your sister to save her from worrying."

Xu Meili said a little embarrassedly: "Brother-in-law, I'm bothering you again."

"We're family, so don't talk behind each other's backs. I won't stop you from doing business, but don't be too hasty. Take your time, and come to me directly if you encounter any problems."

After saying that, Fang Zhiwen hurried away. Upon returning, he immediately set about arranging matters concerning Zhao Jian. The Zhou family was full of gossip, so it was easy to get information. Fang Zhiwen had a good relationship with Liu Xin's son, Wang Hai, so he enlisted the help of this young man, and the matter was quickly thoroughly investigated.

Xu Shanshan only found out about this much later, and she lamented, "How did you end up playing with that kid Wang Hai?"

"Isn't it because I'm kindhearted? Zhou Bin and Zhou Liang, two older kids, bullied the younger one. I helped them a few times, and that kid recognized me as his big brother."

Wang Hai's father had lost everything for the TV factory, so Fang Zhiwen couldn't help but take good care of him. This kid was also a grateful person. After graduation, he also came to work at the TV factory and had been Fang Zhiwen's secretary in a previous life.

Because of these reasons, Fang Zhiwen treated him differently.

Children are the most sensitive to kindness, and after a few times, he became much more intimate with Fang Zhiwen. This time when Fang Zhiwen asked him for help, he immediately said yes.

Zhou Kai's stepfather only makes his mother sad, and he has hated him for a long time.

Fang Zhiwen, upon learning the news, orchestrated a showdown, pitting Zhou Kai against Zhao Jian. This only escalated the situation. Zhao Jian's plot became public knowledge, and Zhou Kai was beaten with a sack.

In this way, Xu Ruyi completely broke free from this matter. Although there was no change on her face, she was actually a little scared in her heart.

She whispered to her younger sister, "It's a good thing my second sister didn't marry Zhou Kai, otherwise we sisters would have been sold off."

When he was in the brigade, Zhou Kai seemed okay, but I didn't expect that he was such a bad person in private.

Xu Meili nodded in agreement, and then sighed: "If you want to get married, you have to keep your eyes open." Although it won't ruin a person's life, it is indeed too energy-consuming.

"Little sister, what kind do you want to find?" Xu Ruyi asked curiously.

"He's handsome."

"ah?"

Xu Meili smiled and didn't explain, but asked Xu Ruyi the same question. Xu Ruyi said, "Someone who treats me well. It would be best if I could be as good as my second brother-in-law treats my second sister."

Xu Shanshan and Fang Zhiwen, considered a model couple by their sisters, had a conflict. This was the first time since their marriage, and even Peng Shuya and Fang Yuanzhou were shocked.

Xu Shanshan took a pillow and sent Fang Zhiwen to sleep in the living room.

Peng Shuya was surprised and said, "The sun is rising from the west, why are these two still fighting?"

Fang Yuanzhou, the old father, was also confused. He asked in a low voice, "Should we go and try to persuade them?"

"Goodbye, children should handle their own affairs. If the older generation gets involved, it will only make things worse. I think your son is being too controlling this time, and Shanshan can't stand it anymore." To be honest, Peng Shuya felt that Xu Shanshan's temper came too late.

It was her who had driven Fang Zhiwen away long ago.

On the other hand, Xu Shanshan was really angry. She didn't expect that Fang Zhiwen had arranged someone around her, and he immediately knew about the things she had investigated.

He was clearly able to report the warehouse matter himself.

But he intervened and the matter was settled immediately.

Whether it was secretly arranging people or interfering in her work, Xu Shanshan was a little angry. It was not that she was arrogant because of her favor, but she could not understand Fang Zhiwen's motives for doing this.

What is he guarding against? Why is he doing all these little tricks?

Don’t they have anything to talk about as a couple?

Fang Zhiwen also had a headache. He really didn't know how to tell Shanshan what he knew in his past life. He was not guarding against her, but to protect her.

He didn't want to report the warehouse incident for the time being because he didn't want to alert the enemy.

Although he no longer works in the factory, he has feelings for the TV factory. How could he allow termites to devour state-owned assets?

Alas, Fang Zhiwen hugged his pillow and didn't want to sleep on the sofa, so he simply slept next to the door.

This way I can be closer to my wife and children.
