Chapter 1366: You Do It for Her, She Does It for You, and I'm the One Who Pays the Bill
Fu Yanwan also thought of her fourth brother at this moment: "Fourth Sister-in-law, where exactly was my fourth brother injured? Uncle Zhang didn't explain it clearly, and I didn't dare call Mom and Dad."
Liu Chuxue sighed lightly: "He hurt his back during disaster relief. The scabs have formed over these past few days. He saw how hard my pregnancy was, so he wanted to help with everything. But although his injury doesn't seem life-threatening, the consequences could be severe if he's not careful. These days, all the factories are sending reinforcements to the disaster zone. Mom and Dad are so busy they can't even touch the ground with their feet, so I didn't tell them about this. I just have to trouble you."
Fu Yanwan immediately grew anxious upon hearing this: "He hurt his back again?"
Liu Chuxue nodded slightly: "Yes, it's just that coincidental. So this injury must be properly cared for. Also, although I'm clearly three months pregnant, I've shown signs of morning sickness these past few days. Your fourth brother is worried, but right now we can only ask you to come over."
Fu Yanwan smiled: "You came to the right person. I can also take a few days off from work. It's a win-win situation."
As the sisters-in-law talked, they entered the courtyard and saw Fu Yan Cheng washing vegetables by the water basin.
Fu Yanwan dropped the handbag she was holding and hurried over: "Fourth Brother, I'll do it, I'll do it. You should rest immediately."
Fu Yan Cheng raised his hand and flicked his younger sister on the forehead: "I only hurt my back. It's not a big deal. Don't make such a fuss."
Fu Yanwan covered her forehead: "Fourth Sister-in-law, manage my fourth brother. He's not allowed to flick my forehead anymore."
Liu Chuxue watched the brother and sister fooling around with a smile: "Alright, I'll criticize him later."
Fu Yanwan wore an expression that said "I knew it": "Fourth Sister-in-law, I can tell you're just brushing me off."
For a moment, all three of them burst out laughing.
Fu Yan Cheng looked at his younger sister: "The injury on my body is no longer a major concern, so you don't need to worry. I asked you to come because your sister-in-law doesn't know what's going on; she's been having pregnancy reactions these past few days, especially unable to stand the smell of cooking oil. I had to call you over to help for a few days."
"Once I'm better, I can do it myself."
Fu Yanwan looked at her fourth brother, then at her fourth sister-in-law, and rolled her eyes directly: "You two are really something. You do it for her, she does it for you, and I'm the one who ends up paying the bill."
But after saying that, she couldn't hold back and laughed out loud: "Alright, alright, it's me. You two move aside quickly; I need to get to work."
The result was that the married couple sat under the osmanthus tree eating watermelon, while Fu Yanwan, having washed the vegetables, went into the kitchen and busied herself with cooking.
However, seeing the meat and eggs in the kitchen, her face was full of smiles: This wasn't coming to help; it was purely coming to recuperate.
Meanwhile, Qiu Shaofeng, whom the two sisters-in-law had mentioned, had already completed all the procedures and officially became a worker at the Rolling Steel Factory. Director Zheng had specifically spoken to the workshop director, asking him to arrange a reliable master for Qiu Shaofeng.
With the factory director's word, the workshop director naturally had to protect him a bit. Plus, finding him a master who dotes on his apprentices meant no one in the workshop dared to bully him.
Adhering to the principle of not losing face for his sister-in-law, and because the master saw that he was truly ambitious, the master taught him very diligently.
Only a few days after entering the factory, today the master even let him cut materials alone, which made him extremely happy.
He got off work earlier than his wife and father-in-law. As soon as he entered the courtyard, he took over the work from his mother-in-law and started stir-frying and cooking, which made his mother-in-law very satisfied.
Just as he finished cooking the dishes, his wife and father-in-law entered the door at the same time: "You're back. Wash your hands and get ready for dinner."
Xia Qiu saw the joy all over his face: "Did something good happen?"
Qiu Shaofeng had a smile in his eyes and eyebrows: "Is it that obvious?"
