Chapter 58 The trouble started again
Yu Xia was immediately furious when Fu Yuanzheng snatched the job posting from her. She slammed the table and yelled, "What do you know? Yun Tangyin has the final say in the Fu family, and Jiang Jianhua is a hopeless case. If we don't leave a way out, what will happen to us in the future?"
Fu Yuanzheng rolled it up in his hand and pointed at Yuxia: "Although Yun Tangyin is strict in accounting, she has never withheld anyone's rations. Stop thinking about it."
At this point, Fu Yuanzheng frowned: "Besides, you and Jiang Jianhua are not on good terms, can her brother still help you?"
"Am I just imagining things?" Yu Xia poked his arm. "There are no eternal enemies in this world. You're still too naive. If it weren't for me, you would have been bullied to death by Fu Yuanshan all these years!"
Fu Yuanzheng shook off her hand: "It's better to rely on yourself than on outsiders. If you dare to stir up trouble and disturb the peace of our family again, I will divorce you."
Yu Xia's voice suddenly stopped, and she sat down in a sullen manner, unable to lose her temper. "I worked so hard to plan for you, and you're just turning your elbow outward."
After all, she married Fu Yuanzheng because of his calm, introverted and upright personality.
Although he had his own ulterior motives, they were all for the benefit of his family. He just wanted the couple to live a better life and never thought of harming anyone.
Yu Xia also felt that she was different from Jiang Jianhua.
She also knew that Fu Yuanzheng had always been thinking about Song Yushuang's kindness in raising him, and had never had any dirty thoughts about the Fu family's property. He just wanted to eat the food he deserved.
But just as Fu Yuan was thinking this, Yu Xia knew a little more than he thought.
The couple was talking when Jiang Jianhua's loud voice came from the gate: "Is your sister-in-law home? I bought a piece of peach cake and brought some for you!"
Yu Xia hurriedly hid behind Fu Yuanzheng: "Quickly put away the notice!"
Fu Yuanzheng glanced at her and put the notice in the drawer and closed it. Jiang Jianhua had already pushed the door open and came in, holding an oil-paper bag in his hand: "Brother, are you here too? I just saw some fresh peach cakes at the supply and marketing cooperative, so I bought some."
Her eyes swept around the room and landed on Yu Xia's flushed face. "What's wrong, sister-in-law? Who made you angry?"
"Nothing." Yu Xia forced a smile. "I just had a few words with your eldest brother."
Jiang Jianhua placed the peach cake on the table and deliberately stroked the oil-paper package. "What a coincidence! I just heard from the supply and marketing cooperative that the department store is hiring. It would be great if my sister-in-law could come. Unfortunately, I don't know anyone there."
Yu Xia's heart skipped a beat. Was Jiang Jianhua testing her?
Fu Yuanzheng picked up the teacup and said, "Recruiting workers depends on your own ability. We can't help you."
"Big brother is right." Jiang Jianhua picked up a piece of peach cake and handed it to Yu Xia affectionately, without any trace of his former arrogance. "But I heard that big sister-in-law is popular. Is she acquainted with Director Li from the department store? If I can help..."
"Whose gossip did you listen to?" Yu Xia smiled and pushed Jiang Jianhua's hand away. "I've only bought vanishing cream from Director Li twice. How can I say I know him?"
Jiang Jianhua was stunned by what she said, then smiled: "Sister-in-law, don't be so quick to distance yourself from me, I was just saying it casually."
She put down the peach cake and said, "That's okay. We're all family. What else can I say to you if you don't help me? I'm going back first."
After Jiang Jianhua left, Yu Xia breathed a sigh of relief: "Look at how proud she is, it must be Fu Yuanshan who asked her to come!"
Fu Yuanzheng said coldly: "Are you scared now? You shouldn't have thought about it in the first place."
Yu Xia ignored him and peeked out through the crack in the door. When she saw Jiang Jianhua enter her house, she turned around and rummaged through the drawers. "No, I have to hide this notice carefully. If she finds it, who knows what will happen."
Fu Yuanzheng frowned: "Then why don't you just tear it up?"
Yu Xia paused, and in the end did not tear up the job notice. Instead, she gritted her teeth and locked it in the drawer.
"Tear it up? This is a job posting for the department store! It's a lucrative job, and so many people are eyeing it!" Yu Xia put the key in her pocket: "Even if I don't give it to Jiang Jianhua, maybe it can be used for something else."
Fu Yuan was about to speak when Jiang Jianhua's voice suddenly rang out from outside the courtyard gate, eight octaves higher than before: "Fu Yuanshan, come out right here! Where's that half bag of brown sugar?"
Yu Xia's eyes lit up, and she dragged Fu Yuanzheng out, "Listen! The couple must have had an argument!"
As soon as the two stood at the gate of the yard, they saw things in the room flying out continuously, until an oil-paper package rolled to the feet of Yun Tangyin who had just come out to watch the fun.
Yun Tangyin bent down to pick it up, opened it, and smiled: "This brown sugar is hidden quite well."
Fu Yuanshan came out of the door, not at all nervous after the quarrel. He even smiled and held on to the door frame to explain to Yun Tangyin. His collar was open so wide that his chest could be seen: "This is what I saved for Mom to make tea!"
Yun Tangyin handed the brown sugar to Song Yushuang: "Is that so? Then you should keep it, Mom, so that some people won't hide it and won't be willing to use it until it goes bad."
Song Yushuang's face was full of displeasure: "You quarrel every day over such trivial matters, Second Brother, I'm not saying you..."
But before she could finish her words, Jiang Jianhua suddenly rushed out, pointing at Yu Xia and shouting, "It was my sister-in-law! She was the one who instigated it, saying that Yuanshan Zanghongtang was still keeping a mistress outside, so I quarreled with him!"
Yu Xia was stunned: "What nonsense are you talking about! When did I ever say that?"
"I just passed by your door and heard you saying bad things about my family to my eldest brother! You ate our snacks and tried to sow discord between us. How dare you say you don't have the peach cakes I bought?"
Jiang Jianhua rushed over and tried to tear Yu Xia apart: "You just can't stand seeing us doing well! You troublemaker!"
Fu Yuanzheng pulled Yu Xia behind him and said, "Jiang Jianhua! Are you crazy? When did we ever say anything bad about you? Don't confuse right and wrong!"
"I told you!" Jiang Jianhua sat on the ground and howled like a tantrum, "You two were just whispering in the house for a long time! Yuxia was even hiding things mysteriously. Sister-in-law, stop staring at our house. Search theirs too!"
Fu Yuanshan helped Jiang Jianhua up with a concerned look on his face: "Is there such a thing? Big brother... I have always regarded you as a big brother worthy of respect!"
Even though they hadn't even started dating yet, Fu Yuanshan's expression was as if Fu Yuanzheng and his wife had been caught doing something bad and were so disappointed in him.
As soon as these words were spoken, everyone looked at Yuxia.
Yu Xia's face turned pale instantly: "You are slandering me! When did our family..."
Fu Yuanshan and Jiang Jianhua exchanged a glance, and the couple almost simultaneously took a step closer: "Then do you dare to have someone search? To dispel any suspicion?"
Fu Yuan was standing there with an expression that said, "He's upright and has nothing to fear from his own shadow."
But Yuxia's heart suddenly skipped a beat.
She knew Jiang Jianhua wouldn't suddenly show his affection for no reason. She must have discovered something...
Yu Xia didn't dare to really let Yun Tangyin search, but if she stopped her now, she would seem guilty.
She looked at Fu Yuanzheng as if asking for help, "Silly husband, why don't you say something!"
