Chapter 1459: You Want to Scheme Against Me? You're Bold as a Dog

~4 min read 720 words

Liu Chuxue truly liked her younger sister-in-law; with her arrival, her mood had improved considerably: "Why be so polite with me? Family naturally hopes you do well."

Fu Yanwan moved to Liu Chuxue's side and took hold of her arm: "I'm not good at pretty words, but I'll keep this in my heart. Fourth sister-in-law, just watch my future performance."

Liu Chuxue thought of something and laughed outright.

Fu Yanwan saw her laugh: "What's wrong, Fourth sister-in-law? What are you laughing at?"

Liu Chuxue poked Fu Yanwan's forehead: "You say it as if you're surrendering to a big family, as if whatever I say or do at home, you'll follow my lead."

One had to admit, she probably watched too many TV dramas and read too many novels in her past life.

Fu Yanwan leaned back against Liu Chuxue's arm again: "That's not wrong either. At home, I naturally have the closest relationship with Fourth sister-in-law; if anything happens, I'll definitely stand on Fourth sister-in-law's side."

Speaking of which, Fu Yanwan thought of the things she had brought: "Fourth sister-in-law, I brought a few pieces of fine cotton cloth. See which color you like?"

Liu Chuxue watched her pull three brightly colored pieces of cotton cloth from the carried bag all at once; to be honest, such things are hard to come by and depend on luck: "Where did you get them?"

Fu Yanwan smiled cheerfully and spread out all three pieces of cloth: "Jiangfeng's uncle was transferred to Haishi City. These were mailed to us by his aunt. I used some of that yellow piece, so only this small bit remains; it's probably enough only to make one outfit for the baby."

"If you like it, I'll have Jiangfeng write to his aunt and ask her to mail some more over."

Liu Chuxue did like the cotton cloth, but she still disagreed: "Don't open your mouth like that. One thing is them willing to mail things to you; another is you asking them to mail things. As older brother and sister-in-law, we can't be the ones dragging you down."

Hearing her say this, Fu Yanwan immediately became unhappy: "I just asked her to help buy some and mail it back. How does that become dragging me down?"

Seeing her bristle, Liu Chuxue smiled and soothed her: "Alright, alright, I didn't express myself well. Think about it: they've already mailed quite a lot to you, and now you're asking them to mail more. Even if you say you'll pay them, how could they possibly accept the money?"

"Think about it; isn't that the logic?"

Fu Yanwan looked at the cloth in her hands: "But the color and texture of this cloth are really suitable for a little baby."

Liu Chuxue laughed: "I have a friend who often goes south. I'll just ask her for help later."

Hearing her say this, Fu Yanwan asked: "Really?"

Liu Chuxue nodded: "She works at a newspaper office. She called me a few days ago, saying she has a business trip next month, either to Haishi City or to southern Zhejiang."

The person she mentioned was currently scolding someone: "That's a big liar. He said he'd definitely come to the city to see me, but I'm about to go on a business trip again, and I still haven't seen a trace of him."

Looking at the things laid out before her: "Fine then. Who else but me would dote on the triplets in your belly? If I want to be a godmother, I naturally have to perform well."

Looking at the things she had prepared, thinking of the scene where she would show off the triplets once they grew up, how exciting that picture would be; thinking and thinking, she burst out laughing.

She had just finished packing the things when she heard the door being knocked: "Liangliang, come down quickly. Look who's here."

Hearing the voice from downstairs, Guo Yueliang felt terrible.

She picked up that bag of things and went straight downstairs: "Auntie, what bad timing. I've made plans with a friend to go to her place. I've already packed everything, so I'm afraid I can't entertain guests."

Her words sounded pleasant, and her facial expression was sincere, but inwardly she thought: You want to scheme against me? You have a dog's gallbladder.
