Chapter 1405: Thoughts Coincided

For the next two days, Liu Chuxue went out of the family compound every day, and when she returned, her bicycle's rear seat always carried some ingredients.

Some were exchanged with villagers, while others were naturally taken out of the space by seizing the opportunity to go out.

Fu Yan Cheng said that a promotion shouldn't overshadow the wedding banquet; inviting about three tables would be appropriate. At that time, only those with whom they had a good relationship would be invited to share a meal; the gesture itself was what mattered.

This thought happened to coincide with Liu Chuxue's.

A promotion is such a big event; if you don't follow the crowd and invite people, someone will inevitably gossip behind your back, but if you go overboard, you'll likely attract even more idle talk. It's best to just follow the crowd; if anyone still finds fault with that, their brain must be broken.

These past two days, as soon as training ended, Fu Yan Cheng rushed home nonstop, wanting to confirm immediately that Liu Chuxue was safely at home.

Seeing him like this, Liu Chuxue couldn't help but tease him: "Don't you fear others laughing at you?"

Fu Yan Cheng washed his hands and helped Liu Chuxue sort the ingredients she had brought back: "Is it wrong for me to treat my wife well? If anyone dares to say anything, I will definitely shut them up and make them feel so ashamed and furious they could die."

His choice of words made Liu Chuxue laugh outright.

As the two were discussing tomorrow's dishes, Mo Ruhua entered the courtyard: "Liu Chuxue."

Liu Chuxue looked up and smiled: "You're back. How is it? Almost finished?"

After greeting Fu Yan Cheng, Mo Ruhua pulled a small stool and sat beside them: "Rushing as hard as I could, I've just barely finished half. I told the principal I'm taking leave tomorrow and am coming over to mooch a meal."

Liu Chuxue, her eyebrows curved in a smile, teased: "That's right. No matter how urgent, you must balance work and rest. Tomorrow I'll make some delicious food to properly nourish you, so you can redouble your efforts and strive to finish as soon as possible."

Mo Ruhua grabbed Liu Chuxue's arm: "You treat me the best, Liu Chuxue."

But as soon as she finished speaking, she heard Shen Kaiyuan's voice: "No respect for elders and juniors! Is Liu Chuxue someone you can just call by name?"

Mo Ruhua glared at her own man: "This is a matter between us women. You big man should interfere less. Didn't you see that Commander Fu doesn't mind?"

Hearing this, Shen Kaiyuan looked at Fu Yan Cheng while saying: "Hey, with my hot temper, how can you speak like that?"

Seeing his wife happy, Fu Yan Cheng said: "Enough. Say less. A wife isn't our accessory; they are independent individuals. Just let them do as they please."

Seeing his own buddy say so, Shen Kaiyuan shrugged and cheekily remarked: "Fine, truly an official one rank higher crushes a person to death. What can I say?"

Mo Ruhua directly threw a carrot from her hand at him: "Stop talking nonsense."

Liu Chuxue smiled and looked at Fu Yan Cheng: "It's rare for everyone to gather. Let's eat here tonight. There are fish in the water basin over there. Just a few days ago, Tao Saozi sent some homemade bean paste she made. Tonight, let's stew fish."

Mo Ruhua didn't stand on ceremony with her: "Then we won't stand on ceremony."

After speaking, she turned to look at Shen Kaiyuan: "You hurry back to our place, pack some rice over here. Tonight we'll steam pure rice. Also bring a piece of cured meat. Liu Chuxue should still have some dried bamboo shoots. I really want to eat that bite."

Seeing his wife's completely unceremonious attitude, Shen Kaiyuan had a headache, but what could he do: "It's only because Fu Yan Cheng and I are childhood friends, you are also quite familiar with him, and you get along well with Sister-in-law. If it were another family, they'd probably be sick of you by now."

Mo Ruhua waved her hand at him: "Hurry up, don't let my godson and goddaughters go hungry."
