Chapter 1265: What Acting — It Would Be a Waste of Talent Not to Go into the Movies

After hearing her second daughter-in-law's words, Madam Fu had originally wanted to scold someone, but she hadn't expected her fourth daughter-in-law to beat her to it.

With a cold face, she said to the second daughter-in-law: "The fourth daughter-in-law is right. Even between blood brothers, accounts must be settled clearly. You want to invoke brotherly affection to make your case — aren't you overestimating the second brother? How much has he ever helped his brothers in this family?

You want to snatch something for nothing, and you still say it so self-righteously. Where do you expect the second brother to put his face?"

Hao Yanhong said urgently: "Mom, we're all your daughters-in-law — why do you always take the fourth sister-in-law's side?"

Madam Fu, hearing such shameless words from her second daughter-in-law: "That's called siding with reason, not with kin. Besides, as you yourself said, you're all daughters-in-law, so naturally I side with whoever makes the more reasonable case. Stop bringing your crooked logic into this — I've had enough."

Liu Chuxue didn't want to continue. She raised her hand and touched her abdomen: "Mom, my nausea is severe, and my body feels a bit off."

Madam Fu panicked at once, tossing aside what was in her hands: "Don't move. Mom will call someone right now to take you to the hospital."

This sudden turn of events startled Hao Yanhong as well: "This has nothing to do with me. I didn't do anything."

Afraid that something might happen to Liu Chuxue and it would get dragged back to her: "Mom, I should go pick up Jinze, so I'll be leaving first."

Once Hao Yanhong had gone, Liu Chuxue gave a light cough: "Mom, don't worry. I'm fine — probably just a bit tired. After I go back and rest for a while, I'll be all right."

Madam Fu recalled she had just returned from a business trip: "Being out on assignment certainly can't compare to being at home. You must be worn out. Come on, come on — someone just sent over some tonics, and Mom will stew some for you in a bit."

The mother-in-law and daughter-in-law chatted and laughed all the way, and somehow forgot the unpleasantness from before.

Hao Yanhong, however, had a flash of cunning. After running off from there, the more she thought about it, the more something felt off. Instead of going to pick up the child, she headed to the steel rolling mill: "Comrade, I'm Xiao Chuxue's second sister-in-law from the finance section. I have something to find her about. Please call her out for me."

The security section people, hearing she was Xiao Chuxue's second sister-in-law, furrowed their brows into a deep crease: "You're her second sister-in-law from her husband's family — how could you not know her situation?"

Hao Yanhong naturally understood what the man meant: "I wasn't in the city for a while. I just got back home, couldn't find her, so I came to the factory to look for her. Has something happened?"

"Are you really her second sister-in-law from her husband's family?"

"What, could it be fake? Besides, my husband's elder brother is in your factory's technical section. If you don't believe me, call him out."

"Who are you talking about?"

"Fu Yanming, of course. You mean you don't know?"

"The factory's this big — should we have to know?"

"Sorry, I was thinking too simply. But after all this talk, can you actually call her out for me or not?"

If Liu Chuxue had been here, she would surely have said: with acting like that, it's a real waste of talent not to go into the movies.

The security section people, hearing her say this, could only reply: "Accountant Xiao has already left the steel rolling mill. I heard she's going to follow the army."

"She's giving up her job?"

"Anyway, someone has already taken over her post. As for what's really going on, you'll have to ask her yourself."

"Then can you call my husband's elder brother out for me?"

At this, the security section people were even less suspicious of Hao Yanhong: "Wait a moment, I'll make a phone call."

Soon, Fu Yanming came running out, panting: "Second sister-in-law, what brings you here?"

"Big brother, they say the fourth sister-in-law isn't at the factory anymore. Is that true or not?"

"Why did you suddenly rush to the factory to look for her? Did something happen?"

"I had something I wanted to find her about, but it's nothing major. I just heard she's no longer working at the factory, so I wanted to ask what exactly is going on."
