Chapter 1449: Wife, You Have Been Wronged

Just as Cui Wenbing had thought, the person who dismantled his family's main gate never expected to be summoned by the leadership first.

After the mother and son went to the clinic, someone was dispatched from above to launch an investigation.

The neighbors who came out immediately upon hearing the commotion all said they had not spotted any suspicious people outside.

Even Liu Chuxue was visited for questioning; she calmly recounted her schedule for the morning and the time she returned, but the comrade investigating, seeing her belly that looked ready to give birth at any moment, suspected no one had the capability to do such a thing.

They failed to find the perpetrator, but instead investigated the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law of the Cui family thoroughly regarding their conduct within the dependents' compound.

The leaders, looking over those investigation files, gave Cui Wenbing a severe scolding.

Fu Yan Cheng naturally also knew about the incident in the dependents' compound; worried about Liu Chuxue, he rushed back as soon as the time came.

Yes, he actually ran.

In the late autumn weather, he was already covered in sweat upon entering the courtyard: "Wife, I'm back."

Liu Chuxue had already finished cooking the meal and was currently cutting quilt fabric in the yard; yesterday she had asked Tao Saozi for advice and planned to try her hand at it today.

She had agreed with Tao Saozi that she would first use the sewing machine to stitch the four edges, and after placing the cotton batting inside, she would invite Tao Saozi over to guide her on how to hand-stitch the middle of the quilt to secure the cotton batting.

Fu Yan Cheng looked at his wife's belly, then at the scissors in her hand: "Wife, perhaps we should send the materials back to my mother's place and let her help make them, so you don't get tired again."

Liu Chuxue finished cutting the last bit, gave him a glare: "My body is getting heavier and heavier, making it hard to go out and walk, and also hard to face those materials; it's just right to change my mind, and I'm very happy to make clothes for the babies."

After speaking, she even looked up and pretended to be angry: "Don't you dare think about depriving me of my right to happiness."

Hearing her say this, Fu Yan Cheng couldn't help but smile in his eyebrows: "Fine, fine, fine, as long as you are happy, but absolutely do not tire yourself out."

Seeing the meal on the stove: "Wife, from now on, leave the cooking to me; if I have something to do on any given day, I will have someone return early to notify you, and at that time I will have someone get the meal for you from the canteen and bring it back."

Liu Chuxue waved her hand: "Exactly, I can take care of myself; if you really did that, who knows what the dependents' compound would spread about; although I don't care what they say, I can't withstand the enthusiasm of the sisters in the dependents' compound; by then, they would inevitably pull me aside for ideological work, which I cannot stand."

Fu Yan Cheng thought of the donation incident a few days ago; the several sisters who knew the truth had visited her one by one that day to talk to her, saying that one cannot live so loosely with money, that they still need to raise children in the future, that although it was a good deed, one cannot be completely careless, after all, they still have to live their lives.

The sisters meant well, but his own wife felt embarrassed to say that translating a book could earn her several hundred in remuneration, and she couldn't put on a cold face; it was only after he returned that he rescued her: "Wife, you have been wronged."

Liu Chuxue put away the things on the table: "Wronged is hardly the case; after all, the sisters acted out of good intentions; mainly, my ears couldn't take it."

Fu Yan Cheng helped her put the things into a basket on the side: "You sit; I'll go bring the food. By the way, the canteen is making braised pork for lunch today; I asked Xiao Guo to help get a portion, and he should be delivering it soon."

Upon hearing there was braised pork in the canteen, a smile appeared on Liu Chuxue's face: "Actually, I really was craving this today; I didn't expect my dream to come true."

The situation of excessive sleepiness had improved these days, but whether it was because the baby in her belly was craving food, or because her hormonal changes had altered her taste, she clearly didn't like fatty meat much before, but during this period she accepted it without refusal.
