Chapter 1245: Reminder

The engineer Jiao's daughter-in-law inside the house heard these words and walked out: "Alright, Sister Fu."

But just as she finished speaking, someone shouted: "Shuhui, what are you doing here?"

Wang Shuhui looked at the speaker: "Chu Hengyue?"

"Yes, it's me. What are you doing here?"

"My Xiao Chen has been temporarily transferred to work here. He was worried about us being at home, so he brought us along."

"So you mean your uncle and aunt have come over too?"

"Yes."

"Looks like your husband is at least a decent man; at least he hasn't forgotten the promise he made in front of the old neighbors."

At this, Jiao Xiaorong, who had heard the voices outside, walked out of the house.

Upon seeing the person talking to her sister-in-law, she froze right there in shock.

The man, seeing her expression, smiled and asked: "Xiaorong, don't you recognize me?"

Jiao Xiaorong, not knowing what she was thinking of, screamed: "Xiaoyu, she's crying, she's in pain."

Wang Shuhui immediately recalled what her sister-in-law had said that day: "Hengyue, you haven't been home in a long time. There's something I need to tell you."

Chu Hengyue was from Haishi but worked in Guangshi; except during holidays, he could barely return home a few times: "Is it about my family?"

Wang Shuhui nodded then shook her head: "It's about your sister."

She glanced at the others in the courtyard who were looking at her.

Chu Hengyue turned to the group and said: "These are my old neighbors from Haishi. I'll just say a few words and be right back."

No one was so tactless as to object; hearing his words, they all walked out of the courtyard, naturally wanting to leave them space to talk.

Seeing everyone had gone out, Wang Shuhui took a deep breath and said: "The incident where your sister was beaten by her mother-in-law before was likely a real misunderstanding."

Hearing this, Chu Hengyue immediately frowned: "What do you mean?"

Wang Shuhui looked at her own sister-in-law: "That day, my sister mentioned unintentionally that the fried dough twists Aunt Hong made were eaten by Cousin Hong, and she even ate until she vomited. She had warned her not to tell anyone outside, or else Big Huang would bite her."

Upon hearing this, Chu Hengyue immediately understood: "So, my sister was wrongly accused by her mother-in-law, and the actual person who stole and ate the fried dough twists was someone else?"

Wang Shuhui coughed lightly: "My sister-in-law wouldn't tell lies. I was just thinking about how to tell you this, and I didn't expect to meet you here."

Thinking of the grievances his own sister had suffered, and then of the nearly miscarried little nephew due to being wrongly accused, Chu Hengyue was truly furious: "Shuhui, thank you, and thank your sister-in-law too. Without you two, our Chu family would probably still be kept in the dark."

Actually, he was also angry at his sister; why didn't she speak up about the injustice, and why did she take the blame for that cousin from the Jiang family? The more he thought about it, the angrier he got.

After exchanging a few pleasantries, Chu Hengyue went inside to greet Wang Shuhui's parents, and only then walked out of the Fu family's main gate.

While nodding and greeting everyone, he thought to himself: Surname Qi, you just wait. If you dare bully my sister, I'll kill you.

This time, the group included Mother Fu as well.

When they arrived outside Chuxue's courtyard, they heard Chuxue training the dog in the yard: "Zhui Feng, catch! Good, very good, do another one."

Zhui Feng quickly realized something and began barking wildly at the outside.

Chuxue extended her spiritual power to look outside and saw her own father and mother-in-law, as well as Deputy Factory Director Gu. However, upon seeing those several staff members in uniform, she belatedly realized who they were.

The moment Mother Fu knocked on the door, she opened it: "Mom, why have you come over?"

Then she turned to look at Xiao Fu behind her: "Dad, why are you here too?"

After speaking, she glanced at the people behind them: "Deputy Factory Director Gu, Secretary Jiang, what is this about?"
