Chapter 1082: As If Dogs Were Chasing Him from Behind

After Fu Yan Cheng helped take the fish inside and clean it, Liu Chuxue urged him, "The tea is brewed. Hurry and take it out to keep them company while they rest."

Hearing her words, Fu Yan Cheng called out to the outside, "Jian She, your sister-in-law has made tea. Come and take it to drink."

Liu Chuxue glared at him, "You take it out yourself. Why are you ordering people around?"

Fu Yan Cheng leaned close to Liu Chuxue's ear, "I can't bear to let you suffer alone. I'll help you with the prep work so you can relax a bit."

Liu Chuxue was about to say something else when Zhang Jian She entered, "Sister-in-law, we are truly lucky to have such a treat today."

Liu Chuxue was not the shy type, "You helped so much today, so I must treat you well. However, time is too tight today. I'll prepare properly later. When Yan Cheng has leave, come over to gather, and I'll definitely cook a full table of good dishes for you."

Zhang Jian She picked up the prepared tea tray and said directly, "Sister-in-law, it's a deal then. I have no other hobbies; I just love to eat."

Fu Yan Cheng laughed and scolded, "No shame."

Zhang Jian She wasn't angry; they had grown up like this.

After the others left, Fu Yan Cheng himself started laughing.

Liu Chuxue looked at him, "What are you thinking of to laugh like that?"

Fu Yan Cheng picked up a basin to sort the vegetables, "Jian She really loves to eat. As a child, he caused countless jokes over a single bite of food. At six or seven years old, to get meatballs from the neighbor's yard, he insisted on calling them 'mom.' In the end, the neighbors had no choice but to send him back, along with a small half-bowl of meatballs."

His mother heard that he wanted to be someone's son for a few meatballs and, in anger, twisted his ear to scold him.

When his father returned, the boy shocked him by telling his father to change wives. His mother, who had come to bring him food, heard this. She was so angry she chased him around the yard with a broom. Even now, recalling that scene always makes her laugh."

He had just finished speaking when he heard Zhang Jian She's voice, "Brother Fu, what are you talking about?"

Zhang Jian She held up the teapot in his hand, "I came to find the thermos."

After speaking, he didn't forget to ask a question, "Brother Fu, what were you just saying? You were laughing so happily. Is there any good news? Tell me so I can laugh too."

Fu Yan Cheng turned to look at him, "Do you really want to hear?"

Seeing Fu Yan Cheng's expression of schadenfreude, Zhang Jian She was about to refuse, but Fu Yan Cheng said, "I was just telling your sister-in-law about your funny childhood stories."

Hearing this, Zhang Jian She knew his glorious deeds were being publicized again, "Sigh, I never thought my bloody and tearful childhood history would become your method to amuse your wife. Well, it's not the first or second time. I'm used to it."

At first, Liu Chuxue felt a bit embarrassed. After all, her own childhood embarrassments were being dug up by a childhood friend; people do care about their face.

But before she could react, she heard Zhang Jian She say, "Sister-in-law, which part did Brother Fu tell you?"

Fu Yan Cheng didn't wait for Liu Chuxue to speak and took over, "The part about trading meatballs for a mom."

Zhang Jian She said, "As expected. That part left my bottom in pieces, so you remember it best. Why not tell your sister-in-law about how, to avenge Ding Runlan, we stole and ate the fried dough twists his second aunt dropped on the roof beam, but then..."

Liu Chuxue listened to him while working, but then the voice stopped. She looked up to see Zhang Jian She looking awkwardly at Fu Yan Cheng, "Um, I'll go take the water out to them first."

After speaking, he didn't even pour water into the teapot, but simply grabbed the thermos and slipped away, as if dogs were chasing him from behind.
