Chapter 1081: Why Didn't You Wait for Me to Come Get You

Fu Yan Cheng, seeing Du Rubing putting on a show, pulled Liu Chuxue and continued introducing: "Tao Sujun, you've met him before."

Liu Chuxue smiled slightly at Tao Sujun: "Troubling you every time is really embarrassing."

Tao Sujun had a steadier temperament; perhaps all researchers were like that: "Yan Cheng has helped me plenty too. Between good brothers, mutual support is simply what should be done."

Fu Yan Cheng raised his hand and punched Tao Sujun on the shoulder: "Well said."

The last one introduced was Zhang Jianshe: "You met him last time when we went to the railway dependents' compound."

The excuse Fu Yan Cheng had used to take her to the railway dependents' compound before was to find Zhang Jianshe, his childhood friend and comrade-in-arms, but she had gone there for Jiang Huiwen; coincidentally, Zhang Jianshe had matters to attend to that day, so they had only met once.

Liu Chuxue nodded to him: "Hello."

After Fu Yan Cheng had introduced everyone: "Wife, I'll go move those large items with them. You take your time and don't tire yourself out. Once I finish moving the furniture, I'll help you organize."

Liu Chuxue naturally did not object: "I understand. Be careful when you move the large items."

They were all young, strong lads, so moving those few things was naturally no problem. They made three more trips and finally moved everything over.

Liu Chuxue did not have many things to begin with, and since the house had just been cleaned before, the main room they were to live in did not even need sweeping; they only needed to place the items in their proper spots.

So, while they were moving things, she made an excuse to go out. When she returned, she was carrying meat, eggs, fish, and vegetables enough for just one meal, along with some simple seasonings. As for grain, Fu Yan Cheng had already prepared some there beforehand.

As soon as Fu Yan Cheng and the others came out of the house, they saw her entering the courtyard and hurried over to meet her: "Why didn't you wait for me to come get you?"

Liu Chuxue thought, If I wait for you to get me, how would I take things out of the space?: "It wasn't too far, and I didn't have many things, so I didn't wait for you."

Fu Yan Cheng took the things from her hands and only then noticed the contents of the basket.

Liu Chuxue hurriedly spoke before he could: "I had good luck today. Although there was no fatty meat left at the meat stall, I managed to grab the last piece of pork belly. I also bought fish. Everyone worked hard moving today; I will cook a good meal myself to reward everyone."

Zhang Jianshe laughed: "We heard Brother Tao say that Sister-in-law's cooking is amazing. Today we finally get to taste it."

Hearing this, Fu Yan Cheng paused for a moment: "When did you eat my wife's cooking?"

Seeing Fu Yan Cheng's expression, Tao Sujun laughed outright: "You asked me to help choose a spot for the well before. Your wife gave me a few jars of mushroom sauce. It was delicious. During those days at the reservoir construction site, those few jars of mushroom sauce saved my stomach."

Fu Yan Cheng said somewhat boastfully: "I'm not bragging, but there is no dish my wife cooks that isn't delicious."

Seeing him like this, the others thought: There he goes again. Now, whenever his wife is mentioned, he talks more than usual.

Liu Chuxue saw he was about to say more and quickly interrupted: "You go draw water so everyone can wash their hands and rest. I'll go cook."

Fu Yan Cheng glanced at the others.

The others spoke in unison: "We can do it ourselves. Why would Brother Fu, Yan Cheng, need to draw water for us?"

After speaking, Zhang Jianshe took the enamel basin placed in the courtyard, went to the water pipe in the yard, and filled it with water: "Come, come, come. Brothers, all come wash your hands."

After Fu Yan Cheng helped put the ingredients into the kitchen, he came out to wash his hands as well: "You rest for a while. I'll go help my wife prepare the ingredients."

The others waved their hands at him simultaneously, looking eager: "Go, go, go. Hurry."

They would not be polite with a good brother, as they were all waiting to taste the food Fu Yan Cheng had praised to the heavens.
