Chapter 1441: I'm Willing to Indulge Her, and No One Can Stop Me

~4 min read 790 words

As soon as the woman spoke, the Miss standing behind her quickly pulled her: "Mom, what nonsense are you talking? The wife of Deputy Regiment Commander Fu is carrying triplets; the pattern of that cloth is clearly meant to make bedding for the babies in her belly. Don't go causing trouble for my dad."

After the Miss finished speaking, she stepped forward and looked at Liu Chuxue: "I'm sorry, don't listen to my mom's nonsense; she's just used to being thrifty."

But instead of helping, her explanation only made it clear that mother and daughter meant the same thing, which made Liu Chuxue so angry she laughed. Just as she was about to say something, she heard Fu Yan Cheng speak: "Every family prepares things for their first child, let alone my wife carrying triplets. Each family knows its own affairs; whether my wife is thrifty or not is none of your concern, after all, it doesn't cost anyone else a penny. I am willing to indulge her, and no one can stop me."

The Miss did not expect that her few words would cause Deputy Regiment Commander Fu, who never spoke much with the families in the compound, to say so much at once, and every word defending his wife.

The Miss's face instantly burned red, and she was about to explain a few more words.

Liu Chuxue opened her mouth instead: "The bus is here."

Fu Yan Cheng extended his arm to loosely protect the space behind Liu Chuxue: "Be careful getting on the bus."

Most of those waiting for the bus were people returning to the regiment; even if they had not dealt with Fu Yan Cheng, they had heard of his name, and seeing Liu Chuxue's large belly, naturally no one pushed past them.

After the shuttle bus stopped steadily, everyone consciously made way for them first, and only after they boarded did the crowd swarm onto the bus.

Nowadays, this bus had no rule of boarding at the front and exiting at the back; to make it easier to get off, Fu Yan Cheng directly chose the first row behind the driver: "Wife, you sit on the inside."

This made the group of female relatives following behind them envious; the woman before, whether out of jealousy or because Fu Yan Cheng had not given her face earlier, made a small "Tsk" sound: "So much trouble."

Fu Yan Cheng was truly angry this time; he sat in his seat, turned around, and stared at the woman: "If I remember correctly, you are the family member of Instructor Miao from the First Battalion of the Second Regiment?"

Hearing these words, the woman did not know what she thought of, and a look of pride flashed across her face, but then she heard Fu Yan Cheng continue: "It seems Instructor Miao is not doing his job properly; he cannot even manage his own patch of land, let alone an entire battalion?..."

The woman's face changed instantly: "I say, Deputy Regiment Commander Fu, isn't it just that my mouth was loose and I spoke a few plain truths? What does my old Miao have to do with it? Why are you bringing in the system of collective punishment?"

Liu Chuxue could no longer hold back: "You at least have self-awareness and know your mouth is loose, but why should I have to suffer your slander just because your mouth is loose?"

The Miss beside the woman turned pale with anxiety: "Mom, can you say a few less words? Are you unwilling unless you drive my dad back to the countryside to farm?"

"Besides, Deputy Regiment Commander Fu and his wife did not say anything wrong; each family knows its own affairs. Deputy Regiment Commander Fu is willing to spoil his own wife; what does that have to do with you? Just manage our family's affairs; can you stop meddling in other people's business?"

Hearing her daughter not only fail to speak up for her but also scold her in front of so many people, the woman asked: "Which side are you on?"

The Miss stood up and said to Fu Yan Cheng and his wife: "I'm sorry, Deputy Regiment Commander Fu; I apologize on behalf of my mother. She has always been heartless and thoughtless; please, my lord, be generous and forgive her loose tongue."

Liu Chuxue originally did not want to speak again, but she did not expect this Miss to be far more skilled than her mother; look how low she placed her posture?

Judging by this eloquence, she probably has some intention of following in her father's footsteps; after all, her father works in political work, and one cannot hold such a position without good eloquence.
