Chapter 1264: Stop Moral Kidnapping Here

Fu's mother could not possibly fail to understand what Hao Yanhong was thinking: "Second daughter-in-law, your fourth sister-in-law is right. Now that the family has split, each household should mind its own affairs; you are meddling too much."

Hao Yanhong panicked at once: "No, Mother, since Second Sister-in-law has decided to join the army, that job certainly cannot be given away to someone else."

Chuxue felt somewhat annoyed: "Second Sister-in-law, do not even think about my job; it has already been transferred to someone else."

Hearing that it had been transferred to someone else, Hao Yanhong shrieked: "How can you transfer it to someone else?"

Because she was too desperate, her voice cracked.

Chuxue glanced at the items on the ground: "Mother, can you help me carry these things? I cannot lift them all back by myself."

Fu's mother nodded: "Alright."

Neither of them paid any attention to Hao Yanhong; they picked up the items and walked out.

Seeing this situation, Hao Yanhong grew frantic: "Mother, Fourth Sister-in-law, what do you mean by this?"

Chuxue's face went cold immediately: "Second Sister-in-law, our Fourth Branch's affairs are none of your concern. Besides, the job existed before the marriage and has nothing to do with the Fu family; you are reaching too far."

Now, how could Hao Yanhong let Chuxue go? "Mother, listen to what Fourth Sister-in-law is saying. Since she is a daughter-in-law of the Fu family, how can this job have nothing to do with the Fu family? Since you are going to join the army, why can't this job be transferred to a family member?"

Chuxue turned and stared at her: "My job is now worth fifteen hundred yuan; can you produce that amount?"

Even at this point, Hao Yanhong remained self-righteous: "We are all one family. Even if I cannot produce that much right now, I will repay it later. My Yanwei and Yan Cheng are biological brothers; brothers ought to help each other."

Chuxue's face was full of mockery: "I guess you plan to catch a wolf with an empty hand, then later twist and turn, playing tai chi with us, until the matter simply fades away."

A flicker of guilt passed through Hao Yanhong's eyes: "How could I possibly think that?"

Chuxue did not want to tangle with her further: "Regardless of what you think, the job has already been transferred out. Even if you covet it, it is Bai Da."

Having finished speaking, she picked up the items and walked out the main gate.

Fu's mother's expression was somewhat complex at this moment; they had not walked far before she heard Chuxue say: "Mother, I am very sorry about the job matter..."

She had not concealed the matter of changing jobs; she told Fu's mother everything in detail: "Mother, everyone has selfishness, and I am no exception. Moreover, the job was not given to my sister for free; from now on, she will split half of her monthly salary with me until she has repaid the money for buying the job."

To be honest, Fu's mother could understand, but thinking of her daughter still suffering on the farm, she felt somewhat uncomfortable deep down. Yet she also understood that everyone has preferences for closeness and distance; the Fourth Daughter-in-law had done nothing wrong.

Then she thought: If her daughter were to return, what would happen to the prospective son-in-law?

Having figured it out, the slight discomfort in her heart dissipated: "As long as you and Yan Cheng have agreed, we will not interfere."

"Besides, your consideration is correct. Giving this job to this side would only be trouble; at that time, giving it to anyone would be inappropriate, and we would end up earning complaints. This way is just fine."

Chuxue naturally understood her mother-in-law's implied meaning. After all, if the job were truly given to the in-laws, her mother-in-law would certainly let her younger sister-in-law, Yanwan, return to Huicheng. But if Second Sister-in-law found out, she would surely not let the matter rest; she would definitely come out to make a scene. At that time, this job would likely cause the Fu family no peace.

Hao Yanhong in the courtyard realized what was happening and hurriedly chased after them: "Mother, this is no small matter. You must help me. This concerns Jinze; you do not want to see your grandson falling behind others, do you?"

Chuxue was now completely furious: "Stop moral kidnapping here; it is truly nauseating."
