Chapter 1000: Which Family Did Your Sister Marry Into?
A woman standing nearby watched their interaction and teased with a smile, "Miss, you have such good fortune; your man knows how to care for people."
Upon hearing this, Chuxue's face turned red directly, but she did not refute it; after all, their wedding date was already set, and this man was originally hers, so there was no need to explain further.
After the vehicle left the city, it became bumpy.
Chuxue was light in weight; with one jolt, her body was lifted up.
Fu Yan Cheng quickly reached his hand behind her, pulling her half into his embrace.
The older sister standing before them had clearly seen Fu Yan Cheng's small move, and her eyes were full of amusement.
Chuxue was such a sensitive person; even without raising her head, she felt the woman's gaze.
Anyway, if she didn't raise her head, she could pretend not to know; she might as well act ignorant, leaning slightly toward Fu Yan Cheng to make it easier for him, as she didn't want him to ruin her basket of eggs trying to protect her if this situation happened again.
After all, those were products from the Space; she believed that once the sent items were eaten, Xia Qiu's body would definitely be regulated to about seventy or eighty percent.
Finally enduring until the Commune, after Fu Yan Cheng helped Chuxue off the vehicle, he climbed back onto the roof to take down the backpack.
To be honest, she had been worried the whole time on the vehicle that a jolt might throw the backpack off.
Fortunately, Fu Yan Cheng said the backpack was not only tied down but also covered with a net, so even if it got bumpier, it wouldn't fall off, which made her feel relieved.
What they didn't expect was that after they got off the vehicle, a middle-aged couple also descended from the back of the vehicle: "Which village are you from?"
Hearing the middle-aged woman's question, Chuxue turned her head and replied, "Willow Tree Village."
Hearing her reply, the middle-aged man on the side said, "That place isn't too far away; my hometown is Huagu Village, separated from yours by a mountain."
Chuxue smiled and nodded at them.
Fu Yan Cheng put the backpack on his back: "Let's go; let's see if there's an ox cart from the farm side at the Commune; if there is, we'll hitch a ride over there."
Hearing his words, that middle-aged woman said, "I called home earlier; they will come to pick us up in a while; if you don't mind, you can ride along for a stretch."
She had barely finished speaking when she heard the woman laugh and say, "The cart is here."
Chuxue raised her head and saw an ox cart approaching from the distance; exchanging a glance with Fu Yan Cheng, both of them smiled slightly.
Chuxue turned to look at the woman: "Auntie, then we thank you; we happen to be going to Guangming Village."
The woman paused for a moment; Chuxue quickly explained, "My older sister married into Guangming Village near the farm; she just gave birth a few days ago, and we are coming to visit her."
Hearing this, the woman wore an expression of "now I understand": "Which family did your older sister marry into?"
Chuxue wanted to take the basket Fu Yan Cheng was holding, but he refused: "I'll just carry it."
Only then did she answer the woman's question: "She married into the Qiu family, the one with five generations under one roof."
Great-Grandmother Qiu's fame was not small; it wasn't just because she lived a long life, but because Great-Grandmother Qiu had joined the Guerrilla Army when she was young.
Upon hearing this, that woman laughed loudly: "I know now; your older sister is Xia Qiu, who married that child Shaofeng."
Chuxue was somewhat surprised: "You know my brother-in-law?"
That woman glanced at the man beside her before laughing: "Speaking of which, we are somewhat related by marriage; I am a fifth-cousin sister to Shaofeng's mother; since I married into the neighboring Huagu Village, we have occasional contact."
Chuxue also smiled: "I didn't expect such a connection."
While they were talking, the cart arrived close by.
The woman enthusiastically invited them onto the cart and didn't forget to ask, "Did Shaofeng's wife give birth to a boy or a girl?"
