Chapter 801 I'll remember this brotherly kindness.

Fu Yancheng turned to look at him: "Looking at you, so worthless, could it be that some girl has taken a fancy to you?"

Deputy Company Commander Zhang tried to suppress his laughter: "Look at what the deputy battalion commander is saying. Although I'm not as tall as you, I'm still quite upright-looking. It's not unusual for girls to be interested in me."

"Hey, looks like I guessed right. Tell me, which family in our compound has a daughter or a girl?"

Deputy Company Commander Zhang raised his hand and touched his head: "She's the girl I met at the hospital before."

Fu Yancheng looked puzzled: "Do I know that girl?"

Deputy Company Commander Zhang coughed lightly: "It's Liu Xiaoyuan, the one who was cursed that day for bringing bad luck to her father and husband."

Fu Yancheng thought for a while before remembering: "Is it the girl whose fiancé risked his life to save someone and lost his life, and whose in-laws made a huge scene?"

Deputy Company Commander Zhang nodded: "That family just wanted to cover up their son's shame, so they tried to strike first and make Xiaoyuan bear the label of being a jinx to her father and husband. Later, some people in the village who knew the truth came forward to testify that the family's son and the widow had been having an affair. Knowing that he was about to get married, they thought they could scare the boy, but instead, the boy lost his life."

"So, does this mean you have a happy occasion coming up?"

Hearing this, Deputy Company Commander Zhang blushed: "Well, well, after what happened, her family wanted us to get married as soon as possible so that Xiaoyuan wouldn't be laughed at in the village."

"What date has been set?"

Deputy Company Commander Zhang turned to Fu Yancheng and said, "I've been waiting for you to come back. You know my family situation. My parents probably can't make it in time, so I was thinking of having you, Deputy Battalion Commander, accompany me."

"What are you thinking, kid? There are so many married people in the family compound, and you're not far away. You want me to come with you?" "Deputy Battalion Commander, I'm just thinking that you've just gotten engaged, and you have experience in this area. Besides, we're brothers who've been through thick and thin together. You wouldn't just leave me hanging, would you?"

"I see, you're just reluctant to part with that little bit of reward, that's why you thought of me, right?"

Deputy Company Commander Zhang wasn't annoyed that his thoughts had been guessed: "I was just thinking that every penny counts."

Fu Yancheng glared at him: "I think I should call you Old Miser Zhang. I really don't know what to say about you."

However, he did not refuse, knowing that his family's situation was special.

Mr. Zhang injured his leg in an accident. He was fine most of the time, but the pain would get worse when he was overworked or on rainy days. Mrs. Zhang was also injured during childbirth and could only do light work. There were seven brothers and sisters in the family. He was the second oldest. His older brother was the eldest. His wife had just gotten married and was already making a fuss about separating the family property. She didn't want to share the burden of supporting her younger brother and sister-in-law.

That sister-in-law is formidable; she declared that if they didn't agree to separate the family property, then they might as well get a divorce.

The Su family had no choice; they couldn't just divorce her right after she married into the family, so they had to agree to let them separate and live independently.

The burden of supporting the family fell on Deputy Company Commander Zhang, the second son of the Zhang family. So he was still single at the age of 26. Fortunately, his younger siblings had finally grown up in the past few years. The youngest was able to work in the fields to earn work points and support himself. He no longer needed to send all his wages back home to support the family.

Fu Yancheng knew he wasn't really stingy, but had no other choice: "Now that only your youngest brother and sister-in-law are still unmarried, you really should consider your own marriage. If you don't have the money, just tell me, and I'll lend you some to get married."

The reason why Deputy Company Commander Zhang insisted on coming to pick up the person was indeed because he had such a plan, but before he could figure out how to bring it up, the deputy battalion commander had thought of it for him. He was extremely grateful: "Deputy Battalion Commander, thank you for your great kindness. I will remember this favor."
