Chapter 686: Your Cousin Is in Trouble, You Must Help Her
Fu Jinyue, who was playing with her younger brothers and sisters in the yard, ran to the main door of the kitchen: "Grandma, the phone is ringing."
Fu's mother put down the vegetables in her hands, wiped them on her apron, and hurriedly ran to the main hall.
She thought it was her own husband calling, but unexpectedly it was the parents of her third daughter-in-law: "In-laws, please wait a moment, I will call Yurong right away."
"In-laws, don't call her yet, I actually have a few words I want to say to you."
"Oh, then in-laws, go ahead and speak."
Although Zhang's father on the other end of the phone found it hard to speak, his wife was watching him closely at that moment, so he had no choice but to say: "In-laws, here is the situation: your fourth son was offended by my sister's daughter a while back at the military unit. Please help say a few good words for her; in view of the fact that our two families are relatives, please let that child off the hook."
Fu's mother was not foolish; she would not agree just because they spoke softly: "In-laws, I do not know exactly what happened, so I cannot promise you anything. Besides, since she offended the fourth son, you should go directly to him; I never interfere in matters between brothers."
Since they were in-laws after all, before the other side could say anything, Fu's mother quickly said: "I will go call Yurong."
After speaking, she set the receiver aside, walked out while calling: "Jinyue, tell your third aunt to answer the phone."
Fu Jinyue at the door heard her grandmother's words, ran over to the kitchen: "Third Aunt, Grandma says you should go answer the phone."
Zhang Yurong, hearing she was being called to answer the phone, got up and ran to the main hall; seeing her mother-in-law coming out, she asked: "Mom, who called?"
Fu's mother said somewhat awkwardly: "Your father called; go answer it."
Zhang Yurong did not notice anything unusual in her mother-in-law: "Why is my father calling? This is truly rare."
Saying this, she entered the main hall, took a few steps to the phone: "Hello, Dad, why did you think to call me?"
Zhang's father, not caring about anything else, said: "Yurong, your cousin is in trouble; you must help her."
Zhang Yurong was somewhat confused: "Dad, what happened to my cousin?"
Zhang's father then carefully told his daughter everything that had been reported from the Jiang family: "This is what happened; now only if your youngest brother-in-law relents can Jiang Xiaoya remain safely in the military unit. You must help Xiaoya."
"Dad, you know my youngest brother-in-law's personality; I can only help ask about this matter, but whether my youngest brother-in-law will give face, I truly dare not guarantee."
"Xiaoya is your cousin, and your job was arranged by your uncle; you cannot just stand by and do nothing, or we would become ungrateful."
Zhang Yurong had no choice but to say: "My youngest brother-in-law went out to pick up his fiancée; I will try when I see him later."
"Daughter, this is not a matter of trying; you must persuade your youngest brother-in-law. Xiaoya is still young; if she really gets a punishment, her future will be ruined. You must find a way to help."
After much persuasion, she hung up the phone, then heard the sound of a car engine coming from outside.
She had just walked out of the main hall when she saw Fu Yan Cheng entering the yard with his fiancée.
Fu's mother and her eldest daughter-in-law, Guo Wenjing, also came out from the kitchen to welcome them: "Chuxue has arrived, come inside quickly."
Seeing the things she was carrying: "Oh my, you came, why did you bring so many things?"
Liu Chuxue smiled lightly: "This is my first visit; it is just a small token of my gratitude."
Liu Chuxue greeted the eldest sister-in-law and the third sister-in-law before following Fu's mother into the main hall.
Fu's mother poured her a cup of brown sugar water; after some small talk, she said: "I still have something stewing on the stove; you and Yan Cheng talk for a while first, I will go check."
Liu Chuxue nodded: "You are busy; having Yan Cheng accompany me is enough."
