Chapter 41
Zhou Jinmei thought that Ye's father and mother were just asking about Ye Fuyue, after all, Ye Fuyue was also their daughter.
Zhou Jinmei said, "Fuyue is never home. She's always out and about. I don't know what she's doing. Unlike Fuyun, who stays home doing laundry, cooking, and cleaning. She's very hardworking."
When Ye Fuyun heard her mother-in-law praising her, which was rare, she straightened her back even more than usual.
She knew that she was so diligent every day that she never had a chance to rest. How could Zhou Jinmei really dislike her? She usually scolded her just to establish her prestige as a mother-in-law in front of her. In fact, she still liked her hardworking daughter-in-law from the bottom of her heart.
"Mom and Dad, please come in and sit down." Ye Fuyun invited again with the attitude of a hostess.
Ye's father and mother thought that since Ye Fuyue and Shen Yao were not at home, if they went to Shen Yao's house now, they would just be waiting under the scorching sun. It would be better for them to sit at Ye Fuyun's in-laws' house, enjoy the breeze and drink some water.
So, Ye's father and mother moved into Zhou Jinmei's house.
"Fuyun, go get some water for your parents." Zhou Jinmei said to Ye Fuyun and was about to take the things from Ye's father and mother.
Father Ye dodged Zhou Jinmei's hand and said, "We can take these things ourselves. You don't need to take them."
"My dear relatives, why are you so polite?" Zhou Jinmei smiled and thought that Ye's father didn't want to trouble her.
Since Ye's father didn't let her take it, Zhou Jinmei didn't take it either. After all, these things still belonged to her family.
Ye Fuyun brought two bowls of cold water, and Ye's father and mother drank them all in one gulp - they were both thirsty after walking all the way under the scorching sun.
"My dear relatives, why did you suddenly think of coming here today?" Zhou Jinmei said with a smile on her face.
"Something." Father Ye said vaguely.
"What's the matter?" Zhou Jinmei asked.
Father Ye remained silent and didn't want to elaborate.
Zhou Jinmei rolled her eyes in her heart, but she still had a smile on her face.
Father Ye remembered that most of the people living here were the families of the employees of the First Factory, so he asked Zhou Jinmei, "Is there any news about the First Factory recruiting recently?"
"I haven't heard of it, so I guess not." Zhou Jinmei said.
Father Ye added: "If there is news of recruitment, can Shen Yao help arrange a job?"
Zhou Jinmei heard something was wrong.
Why did these two people keep asking if the factory had any recruitment information, and also asked about Shen Yao.
"I don't know about that. You can go ask Chen Yao!" Zhou Jinmei said a little impatiently.
Ye's father thought: Zhou Jinmei is just an ordinary woman, and she no longer works in the factory. It is normal that she doesn't know about these things.
Zhou Jinmei looked at the expressions of Ye's father and mother, and then looked at the things they kept holding in their hands and were reluctant to put down. The more she thought about it, the more she felt something was wrong.
"What exactly are you doing coming to my house today?" Zhou Jinmei asked.
"We are not here to see you." Mother Ye thought Zhou Jinmei was really funny. Why did Zhou Jinmei think they were here to see her?
"We are here to find..."
Before Ye's mother finished speaking, Ye's father caught a glimpse of Ye Fuyue walking past the house.
"Fu Yue—Fu Yue—" Father Ye chased out with the things in his hand.
Seeing this, Ye's mother also followed out with the things in her hands.
Seeing Ye's father and mother running out of Zhou Jinmei's house, Ye Fuyue said without reacting, "You're here to see Ye Fuyun."
"We are not here to see her, we are here to see you," said Ye's mother.
Zhou Jinmei, who followed out, suddenly became disfigured when she heard what Ye's mother said, and glared at Ye Fuyun fiercely.
"What are you looking at me for?" Ye Fuyue asked back.
"Ever since you married into the Shen family, we've been so busy that we haven't come to see you. It just so happens that your dad and I are free today, so we bought you some things and came to see you." Mother Ye said with a smile, showing Ye Fuyue the things in their hands: "Look, these things were bought for you by your dad and I. It cost us quite a bit of money."
Ye Fuyue glanced at the things in their hands and sneered, "You bought so many things, you must be feeling very sad."
After that, she asked directly: "Are you really here to see me, or are you here to ask me for help?"
Since Ye Fuyue said it so clearly, Ye's father no longer hid it.
"We are here because of Yu'er. A few days ago, Yu'er wrote to us and said that he was having a hard time in the countryside. We want Shen Yao to arrange a job for Yu'er in a factory so that Yu'er can come back from the countryside."
Before Ye Fuyue could react, Zhou Jinmei had already laughed at her.
"After all this trouble, you only brought so many things by asking for favors. Ye Fuyun, that fool, thought you were here to see her. When she got married, you didn't give her any dowry. How could parents like that possibly come to see her with all these things?"
Although Ye's father and mother were dissatisfied with Zhou Jinmei's ridicule, they were not in the mood to pay attention to Zhou Jinmei at the moment.
"We gave these things specially to Shen Yao. If he can really arrange a good job for Yu'er, we will definitely have other things to thank him for." said Ye's father.
Ye Fuyue didn't beat around the bush and said directly, "Shen Yao and I made our stance on this matter very clear last time. We can't help, and we won't help."
Father Ye was a little angry.
They brought so many things and their intentions were sincere enough, but Ye Fuyue still had this attitude!
"Why can't you help? Yu'er is your biological brother, he is not an outsider!" Father Ye couldn't help but yelled.
His roar attracted many people in the courtyard to come out and watch the fun.
"Brother?" Ye Fuyue teased, "Does he consider me his biological sister?"
"Why doesn't he treat you like his own sister?" Ye's mother was also angry: "He went to the countryside to replace you, otherwise you would have been the one to go to the countryside!"
Ye Fuyue chuckled: "You all forgot that the original quota for going to the countryside was for Ye Fuyun. If it weren't for Ye Fuyun, your good son wouldn't have gone to the countryside."
Ye Fuyun was already heartbroken because her parents hadn't come to see her. Hearing Ye Fuyue's words, she clenched her fists in anger.
She said, "I wanted to go to the countryside, but Long Fei and I were in love and had already decided to get married. But you, sister, got together with Shen Yao as soon as you heard that Long Fei and I were getting married, and you wanted to marry Shen Yao right away."
Ye Fuyue glanced at Ye Fuyun with a half-smile: "What do you mean? You've forgotten what I said in the compound last time, right? Why don't we go to the police and explain things clearly now?"
Ye Fuyun froze all over, almost forgetting what Ye Fuyue had said in the compound last time, that if anyone dared to spread rumors about her and Wu Longfei, she would hand the rumormonger over to the police.
Ye Fuyun quickly changed his words and said, "I, I don't mean anything else. I just want to say that if it weren't for marrying Long Fei, I would definitely go to the countryside."
