Chapter 109
Zhou Jinmei really enjoyed Ye Fuyun's words and his respect for her.
Although she didn't do anything hard this year, and even the reunion dinner was prepared by Ye Fuyun alone, it still felt good to know that someone cared about her and put her first.
After pouring drinks for Zhou Jinmei, Ye Fuyun filled the glasses of Wu's father and Wu Aixia, and then Wu Longfei and hers.
Wu Aixia couldn't help but ask Wu Longfei, "Brother, where's my New Year's red envelope?"
Zhou Jinmei glared at her: "The reunion dinner hasn't even started yet, and you're already thinking about your New Year's red envelope."
"Chen Shun has already got the New Year's red envelope, I want one too!" Wu Aixia said.
Hearing this, Wu Longfei smiled and said, "I'll go inside and get it for you. Anyway, it's all ready for you, so it doesn't matter if I give it to you earlier or later."
Hearing Wu Longfei say this, Wu Aixia finally smiled.
Wu Longfei went back to the house, took out a red envelope and gave it to Wu Aixia.
Wu Aixia took it and said happily, "Thank you, brother!" Then she couldn't wait to open the red envelope.
Seeing that there were only five ten-cent coins in the red envelope, Wu Aixia pouted: "Only fifty cents again!"
Zhou Jinmei was unhappy: "Whether it's a lot or a little, it's all a token of your brother's appreciation. 50 cents is too little? Some kids in our compound only get 10 cents in red envelopes. If you think it's too little, I'll just ask your brother to give you 10 cents from now on!"
"But Chen Shun's sister-in-law gave him a red envelope of one dollar, and I only have ten cents. Chen Shun must be laughing at me to death!" Wu Aixia yelled.
When Ye Fuyue was mentioned, Zhou Jinmei and Ye Fuyun's faces looked a little bad.
Why does Ye Fuyue seem like a lingering ghost? She is everywhere!
Wu Aixia didn't dare to get angry at Wu Longfei, so she could only vent her anger on Ye Fuyun.
"Is it you who refused to let my brother give me a one-yuan red envelope? I knew you were the most stingy towards me! You wish I would be outshined by Shen Shun and laughed at by the people in the compound!"
"I..." Ye Fuyun felt that he died unjustly.
The red envelope was prepared by Wu Longfei, so what did it have to do with her? Besides, when had she ever made Wu Aixia a laughing stock in the compound? Wu Aixia's words were really just a way of currying favor with the person she met.
Ye Fuyun looked at Wu Longfei for help.
Wu Longfei scratched his head and said, "Okay, I'll give you another fifty cents to make up one dollar for you."
Wu Aixia instantly smiled: "Thank you, brother!"
Although Zhou Jinmei and Wu's father felt that what Wu Aixia did was not right, today was New Year's Eve, and the two did not want to care too much.
Wu Aixia took another fifty cents from Wu Longfei and was satisfied.
Only Ye Fuyun was inexplicably blamed by Wu Aixia. In the end, Wu Aixia got what she wanted without even saying a word of thanks to her.
However, Ye Fuyun had long been accustomed to this kind of life and soon put these unpleasant things behind him.
After New Year's Eve, it is the first day of the new year. After the first day of the new year, it is the second day of the new year when people go back to their parents' home.
On the second day of the Lunar New Year, the compound was particularly lively. Not only did the daughters-in-law return to their parents' homes, but the married daughters also returned to their parents' homes.
Chen Guifeng glanced at the things Ye Fuyue and Shen Yao were going to take back to her mother's home. While Ye Fuyue was away, she secretly asked Shen Yao, "Is this all you are taking back to the Ye family?"
"Mom, you know who the Ye family is. Listen to Fu Yue in everything. We'll take whatever she says." Shen Yao said.
"Okay, just discuss it with the two of you." Chen Guifeng instructed: "When we return to the Ye family, you must protect your wife and don't let her get bullied."
"Don't worry, I will definitely protect my wife." Shen Yao promised.
Ye Fuyue changed her clothes and came out of the room, saying to Shen Yao, "Let's go."
Then she said to Chen Guifeng, "Mom, let's go."
"Okay, go slowly on the road and don't fall."
"Okay." Chen Yao responded and set off with Ye Fuyue.
When passing by the Wu family's door, Ye Fuyue saw Ye Fuyun.
Ye Fuyun was still sitting on a small stool washing clothes, and had no intention of returning to the Ye family.
After seeing Ye Fuyue and Shen Yao leave, Ye Fuyun stared at their backs for a long time.
She doesn't plan to go back to her parents' home this year. Wu Longfei has already gone out to play, and she can't go back alone.
More importantly, Zhou Jinmei didn't prepare anything for her to take back to her parents' home, and she didn't dare to secretly buy things and bring them back to her parents' home like she did before. Anyway, Ye's father and mother didn't treat her well. Last time, they only thought about bringing things to please Shen Yao and Ye Fuyue, and didn't think of her at all. She simply didn't go back.
Zhou Jinmei came out of the house while eating melon seeds. She was very satisfied to see Ye Fuyun still washing clothes.
"Isn't today the day to go back to your parents' home on the second day of the Chinese New Year? Aren't you going back?" Zhou Jinmei asked deliberately.
"No, my parents probably don't expect me to go back anyway." Ye Fuyun said with a pitiful and unpopular look.
Zhou Jinmei was even more satisfied, but she didn't show it on her face: "It's okay if you don't go back. Don't forget to make lunch."
"good."
After making arrangements for Ye Fuyun, Zhou Jinmei went out for a walk while eating melon seeds.
After walking a few steps, I saw Aunt Liang and Cui Yongfang who was preparing to wash clothes.
"Jinmei, has your Fuyun gone back to her parents' home? I just saw Chen Yao and Ye Fuyue leaving. He must have gone back to Ye Fuyue's parents' home." Aunt Liang asked.
"My daughter Fuyun isn't going back this year. She doesn't have a good relationship with her parents." Zhou Jinmei said, then asked, "Yongfang isn't going back to her parents' home this year?"
"Her belly is so big and her parents' home is far away, it's inconvenient to go back and forth." Aunt Liang said.
"That's right." Zhou Jinmei agreed. The two exchanged glances, as if they had reached some kind of consensus. They did not ridicule each other because the daughter-in-law did not return to her parents' home.
After Zhou Jinmei strolled away, Aunt Liang said to Cui Yongfang, "Tianxiong's clothes were really dirty from playing yesterday. Please wash them for him."
"Okay." Cui Yongfang responded with a smile.
"Also, Tianxiong said he wanted to eat braised pork. Today is Chinese New Year, so just satisfy him for once. You can make braised pork for him later."
"Well, he is really a greedy boy." Cui Yongfang smiled indulgently.
"That's right." Aunt Liang responded and took out some sunflower seeds from her pocket to eat. "You wash the clothes well, and I'll go for a walk outside."
"Okay, Mom, you go for a walk. I'm at home." Cui Yongfang said with a smile.
Aunt Liang left with satisfaction.
Cui Yongfang held her stomach, sat down on the bench with some difficulty, and started washing clothes.
…
Ye Fuyue and Shen Yao returned to the Ye family. When the aunts and ladies in the family compound saw her, they all greeted her.
"Fuyue, you and your husband are back! Why don't I see Fuyun? Doesn't she live in the same courtyard with you? Why didn't you two sisters come back together?"
"I didn't see Ye Fuyun, so I came back on my own." Ye Fuyue said casually.
