Chapter 678: Borrowing Money

Although Fu Yanwan held some grievances against her second brother, she did not wish to embarrass him in front of the Ding Zhiqing station members: "Alright."

Saying this, she lifted her steps and walked over there.

Once she stopped: "Now can you speak?"

Fu Yanwei coughed lightly: "Xiao Ze is sick, Xiao Wan, lend your second brother some money."

To be honest, Fu Yanwan found it hard to believe him: "You didn't cause some trouble and use Xiao Ze as an excuse to trick me out of money, did you?"

Hearing his own sister's words of distrust, Fu Yanwei thought: Does this count as reaping what I sowed?

After exhaling a heavy breath of turbid air: "Xiao Ze is right now at your farm's clinic; he just received a fever-reducing injection, but the Physician said if the fever doesn't go down, we must prepare medicine and administer an IV. If you don't believe me, you can go with me."

Hearing these words, Fu Yanwan actually believed him; after all, even a tiger does not eat its young, and her second brother, no matter how unruly, would not use his own son as a pretext.

Now she grew anxious as well: "Wait for me."

After speaking, she turned and ran into the dormitory.

Seeing her enter, Sun Juanjuan began rummaging around: "Xiao Wan, what happened?"

Fu Yanwan did not stop her hands: "My second brother's son, Xiao Ze, has a fever; I'm going over to check."

Sun Juanjuan felt somewhat uneasy: "I'll go with you."

Fu Yanwan waved her hand: "You've been tired all day; don't run around again. Xiao Ze is at the farm clinic now; I'm not going to Huagu Village."

Hearing that she wasn't going to Huagu Village, Sun Juanjuan felt relieved: "Alright, then, come back early."

When Fu Yanwan left, she put all the money in her hand into her pants pocket; at this moment, her second brother coming to find her meant she knew exactly why without needing to think.

Even if she disliked her second sister-in-law the most, Xiao Ze was innocent; he was her own nephew, and of course, she would not abandon him.

She also took some of the delicious food she had on hand before walking out.

After leaving the Ding Zhiqing station, Fu Yanwan finally asked: "Have you still not gone back to apologize to Mom and Dad?"

Hearing his sister's question, Fu Yanwei looked extremely uncomfortable: "I've been busy with the autumn harvest lately; I just haven't had time yet."

Fu Yanwan simply rolled her eyes: "Fine, whatever you say goes."

Seeing his sister's attitude, Fu Yanwei muttered quietly: "How was I supposed to know Mom and Dad were truly so ruthless and cut off my allowance?"

Fu Yanwan could barely hold back her anger: "Second brother, I think you've been brainwashed by your wife; Xiao Ze is already five years old; how can you bring yourself to say such a thing?"

Besides, you know your own situation, yet you still want to support your wife's natal family; I'm truly impressed by you. Turning around, you call your own parents ruthless; aren't you afraid of chilling their hearts with those words?"

Seeing that his little sister was truly angry, Fu Yanwei hurriedly explained: "Little sister, I was just venting a complaint; don't be angry."

Fu Yanwan, with disappointment on her face, said: "Second brother, venting a complaint is precisely what you truly think in your heart; you have truly disappointed me."

Fu Yanwei also knew he had indeed spoken wrongly, yet he did not know how to explain, and the atmosphere suddenly fell silent.

The Ding Zhiqing station was not far from the clinic to begin with, and the two of them arrived at the place very quickly.

Fu Yanwan did not go to pay the fee; instead, she looked at Fu Yanwei and asked: "Where is Xiao Ze?"

Fu Yanwei knew she could not see Xiao Ze's condition and whether she was going to pay the fee, so he led her directly to the ward.

When the siblings entered, the second sister-in-law was holding a wet handkerchief, applying it to Xiao Ze's forehead.

Seeing them enter, she said: "Yanwei, what should we do? The fever still hasn't gone down."
