Ever since the dispute over alimony, both of Zhang Xuewu's older sisters have had grievances against him, and neither of them is talking to him now.
Even Zhang Chunyuan deliberately turned his face away.
This unfilial son! He's been in the hospital for two days, and this is the first time he's come to see him. He doesn't even respect his father anymore!
He was overthinking things. Zhang Xuewu hadn't come to see him at all; he went straight to Fangfang and said urgently, "Fangfang, your uncle is here to see you. You have to save your aunt this time!"
Seeing Zhang Xuewu's tearful appearance, Fangfang was immediately frightened, "Uncle, what's wrong with you?"
Zhang Pandi rushed over and shoved Zhang Xuewu away, saying, "Zhang Xuewu, what are you doing? Don't scare our Fangfang!"
Zhang Xuewu said with a bitter face, "Third Sister, I didn't scare her at all. I came to ask Fangfang for help!"
Zhang Pandi said irritably, "What help can my Fangfang be to you? Let me tell you, Dad doesn't need you to support him anymore, and we don't need any alimony!"
"Third Sister, you've misunderstood! I'm not here to ask for alimony!" Zhang Xuewu said helplessly, and quickly asked Fangfang, "Fangfang, didn't you say before that your boyfriend is the deputy captain of the police station? Please help me find out more about him!"
"The police called me last night and said your aunt has been arrested for fraud. They'll be prosecuting her in two days, so she'll probably be going to jail!"
Zhang Xuewu looked haggard. He had gone to the police station last night to see Mei Yun, but they wouldn't let him. He was truly anxious.
What?
Mei Yun arrested for fraud?
Everyone was surprised to hear this news.
"Heh, she doesn't look like a good person at all! I didn't expect her to dare to do something illegal!" Second Sister Zhang Zhaodi couldn't help but sneer from the side.
The third sister, Zhang Pandi, couldn't help but curl her lips, "No wonder they asked us for so much alimony, it's probably to cover some kind of hole, right? Heh, now look what's happened, they've gotten themselves into trouble!"
Lin Yu and Lu Xueqing exchanged a glance; they both knew perfectly well how Mei Yun had gotten in.
Lu Xueqing opened her mouth, about to speak, but Lin Yu stopped her.
Zhang Xuewu pleaded with Zhang Pandi, "Third Sister, Mei Yun is pregnant. No matter what, she's a member of the Zhang family. Please help me and ask Fangfang to inquire for me."
Zhang Pandi looked reluctant; she didn't really want to help with this.
At this moment, Zhang Chunyuan, lying on the bed, became a little anxious. Although he was angry with Zhang Xuewu and his wife, it concerned his eldest grandson, so how could he not be anxious? He slurred, his mouth crooked, "Fang, Fang, help you... Auntie..."
Fangfang quickly came over and took his hand. "Grandpa, don't worry, I'll call my girlfriend and ask her right away!"
Fangfang was also a sentimental girl, and she immediately took out her phone and made a call.
As soon as the call connected, a noisy sound came from the other end, like it was in a karaoke bar.
Fangfang frowned and asked, "Hey, Siming, are you busy?"
The other party replied, "Fangfang, is something the matter? I'm checking the premises!"
Fangfang said, "Oh, okay, then go ahead and do your work. I'll tell you when you have time. Something happened at home that I need to ask you about!"
"Let's talk about it after I'm done with this!"
After finishing speaking, the other party impatiently hung up the phone.
Fangfang looked at Zhang Xuewu with a helpless expression, "Uncle, he's busy right now. How about I ask for you after he's done?"
Although Zhang Xuewu was anxious, he had no choice but to nod.
At this moment, Zhang Pandi suddenly spoke up, "Xuewu, let me tell you! Fangfang will only ask around for you at most. If Meiyun really did something wrong, we won't take responsibility! Siming is about to be promoted to captain, and we can't afford to make mistakes!"
Zhang Xuewu looked helpless. "Don't worry, big sister. I just want Fangfang to help me find out what happened!"
At this moment, the second sister, Zhang Zhaodi, suddenly asked, "Third sister, is your Siming going to be promoted to team leader? That's too fast! He's only in his twenties!"
Zhang Pandi said with a smug look, "Of course! Siming is really impressive. He made a contribution before, and this time, just in time for their captain to step down and they were short-handed, he was promoted ahead of schedule!"
"Really? That's amazing! Third Sister, you're so lucky to have such a capable son-in-law!"
Zhang Zhaodi's praise made Zhang Pandi even more smug. "No matter how capable he is, he still has to listen to my Fangfang! You don't know, they got together when they were in college. I didn't agree to it back then because his family was too poor. He ate and used my Fangfang's things. Even now that he's graduated, he doesn't earn much. The house was prepared by my husband and Fangfang's father. We didn't ask him for any dowry. I just hope that he will treat our Fangfang better after we get married!"
Fangfang blushed slightly, nudged her, and said, "Alright, Mom! What era are we living in? Dowry is an outdated custom. Siming treats me well, and that's better than anything else!"
Zhang Pandi said irritably, "You little ungrateful thing, you're not even married yet and you're already protecting her. The old saying is right, girls really do favor the outside world!"
Lu Xueqing walked over, took Fangfang's hand, and said, "Third Aunt, I think Fangfang is right. If two people have a good relationship, nothing else matters. When Lin Yu and I got married, we didn't ask for any dowry, and we're doing just fine now!"
Zhang Pandi smiled and nodded, "If our Siming could be as devoted to Fangfang as Lin Yu, I would be completely satisfied! I'm just afraid that as his official position rises higher, his heart will change!"
Fangfang quickly said, "Mom, no way! Siming isn't that kind of person!"
