Chapter 43
With just a few words, the aunts turned the situation, which was completely unfavorable to Ye Fuyue, into a situation that was unfavorable to Ye's father and mother.
Ye's parents had originally intended to use the act of kneeling down and the presence of so many people watching to force Ye Fuyue to agree to arrange a job for Ye Yu. However, despite all their calculations, they had forgotten that many people in the compound also had sons living in the countryside.
Even if those people disliked Ye Fuyue and thought it was wrong for Ye Fuyue to force her biological parents to kneel down to her, they would not agree to let Shen Yao arrange jobs for outsiders like them first.
At this moment, hearing everyone pointing fingers at them, Ye's father and mother knew that if they continued to kneel, Shen Yao would not be able to arrange a job for Ye Yu. Instead, they would continue to be despised by this group of people. Ye's father and mother quickly got up and slipped away.
As soon as Ye's father and mother left, Ye Fuyue stood up sadly.
She wiped the tears that she had finally squeezed out from the corners of her eyes and said, "Aunts, thank you. If you hadn't distinguished right from wrong and spoken up for me, I would have been driven to death by my parents!"
These aunts who previously thought Ye Fuyue was unfilial, now knew that Ye Fuyue was on their side and protecting their interests, all began to comfort her:
"It's really hard for you to have such parents."
"Don't be afraid! Next time your parents come to you and make trouble, asking you and Shen Yao to arrange a job for your brother, just tell us. We aunts will support you!"
"That's right! Don't your parents see that this is the family compound of the first factory! You come here to act wildly, do you really think that the family members of the first factory are so easy to bully?"
Ye Fuyue looked at them gratefully, speechless.
Zhou Jinmei couldn't bear to watch it anymore.
Although she felt that it was wishful thinking and daydreaming for Ye's father and mother to ask Shen Yao to arrange a job for their son, Zhou Jinmei felt resentful when she saw Ye Fuyue suddenly being supported by so many people in the yard.
This little bitch really knows how to act!
Zhou Jinmei glared at Ye Fuyun and asked Ye Fuyun to follow her home.
After closing the door, she pointed at Ye Fuyun and started cursing.
"You don't know what kind of people your parents are! You thought they came to see you with all those things, and you let them in and gave them water! Do you have any brains? You just wanted your parents to rest here and give them some water!"
"I didn't. I told them they came to see me, and they didn't object, so I really thought they came to see me." Ye Fuyun explained aggrievedly.
"Seeing you like this makes me upset. You're so stupid, you have a pig's head!" Zhou Jinmei was too lazy to talk to her: "Go clean the cabinets quickly, don't just stand here and get in the way!"
Ye Fuyun responded timidly and went to wipe the cabinet.
…
Although Shen Yao and Chen Guifeng were not around when the incident between Ye Fuyue and her father and mother happened, the news spread throughout the compound, and Shen Yao and Chen Guifeng knew the whole story.
Chen Guifeng said to Shen Yao, "Your mother-in-law and father-in-law are such bastards! They knelt down to their daughter in public. Aren't they deliberately trying to get her scolded by everyone? Luckily, Fu Yue was smart and handled the matter beautifully. Otherwise, who knows what the people in the courtyard would say about Fu Yue behind her back."
Shen Yao nodded gloomily.
He knew that Ye's father and mother were not good to Ye Fuyue, but he didn't expect that they would treat their own daughter like this for Ye Yu.
He felt that he had failed to protect Ye Fuyue and felt very guilty.
Ye Fuyue tried to comfort him instead, "My parents are the most shameless people. You must have heard the saying, 'A shameless person is invincible.' You and I are both people who value our dignity, so how could we have imagined they would resort to such a trick? However, after what happened last time, they definitely won't come to us and humiliate ourselves again."
As for whether Ye's father and mother would come to see her and Shen Yao again, Ye Fuyue couldn't say for sure. After all, she couldn't guess how far Ye's father and mother would go for Ye Yu.
Time passed day by day, and in the blink of an eye it was mid-to-late August.
Ye Fuyue finally waited for Wu Qiaoer to take a vacation, and the two decided to go out and meet and chat. They hadn't seen each other for a while.
Just as Ye Fuyue was about to leave the compound, she ran into Aunt Liang's eldest daughter-in-law, Cui Yongfang.
Cui Yongfang was dissatisfied when she saw Ye Fuyue wearing a skirt and sandals, dressed like a fairy.
She called out to Ye Fuyue: "Ye Fuyue, are you going out again?"
Ye Fuyue felt puzzled. What did "again" mean?
But considering that she and Cui Yongfang had never had a direct conflict before, Ye Fuyue smiled politely: "Yeah."
"You can't do this! Men make money outside, and we women should stay at home and take care of the house so that when our men come back, we don't have to worry about anything. With someone like you always running outside, how can you take care of the things at home?" Cui Yongfang frowned in dissatisfaction.
Ye Fuyue was even more confused.
Who are you? You're such a meddlesome person!
"Every family's situation is different. My husband likes me to go out." Ye Fuyue was about to leave after she said this, but Cui Yongfang directly grabbed her.
"Sister, I don't want to meddle in your family's affairs. I just see you're always like this and I'm afraid you'll ruin your own happiness, so I'm trying to persuade you." Cui Yongfang said in a sincere tone: "Men like virtuous women, not women who are away from home and like to spend money recklessly. Look at the clothes and shoes you're wearing, none of them are simple. You're newly married now, and your man may still cherish you very much. He won't say anything if you spend too much. But over time, he will slowly dislike you."
"As married women, we should be frugal and simple, putting our husbands and mothers-in-law first. Since you don't have a job and can't earn money, you should serve your husbands and mothers-in-law even better."
Ye Fuyue was amazed when she heard this.
This woman is truly a model of female virtue! No wonder she can serve her man Liang Nan so much that he is too lazy to die. He does nothing at home, but is just average at work and doesn't earn much money.
Ye Fuyue pulled her hand away: "These words apply to you, but not to me. I don't like to hear these words either. Don't tell me anymore. Just say them to yourself."
After saying that, Ye Fuyue walked away quickly.
Cui Yongfang glared at Ye Fuyue's back fiercely: "You took my kindness for granted! I'm just waiting to see when Chen Yao gets tired of you and kicks you out. I wonder how you'll have the time to go out and how you'll have the money to buy skirts and shoes!"
Ye Fuyue had no idea about Cui Yongfang's "expectations" for her, as she had already met Wu Qiaoer.
She took her twenty yuan of private savings and treated Wu Qiaoer to some iced green bean soup. She also bought a cream ice cream for Wu Qiaoer and herself, and ate them while sitting in front of the store.
