Chapter 1465: Can You Speak Properly?
In the military dependents' compound, Liu Chuxue packed up a pile of food she had made herself: "Xiao Wan, these are all dried vegetables I sun-dried and dishes I prepared some time ago. Now that I'm heavily pregnant, it's inconvenient for me to return to the city. You're going back anyway; take these for Mom and Dad to taste."
Seeing Fu Yanwan felt that anything made by her fourth sister-in-law was delicious. With a smile in her eyes and brows, she said, "Fourth sister-in-law, I won't stand on ceremony with you. With such delicious food, Mom and Dad will surely love it."
Remembering what she had seen at home earlier, she added, "I'll tell you secretly: I saw Mom making urine diapers."
After speaking, she glanced at Liu Chuxue's belly: "They're definitely being prepared for these little ones."
Hearing this, Liu Chuxue also laughed. No matter what, it was good that the mother-in-law had this intention. Since only she was pregnant in the family, they wouldn't be made for anyone else.
Seeing Fu Yanwan set the items aside: "Sister-in-law, bring out the fabric you brought me. Let Sister Liangjing take a look. I told her last night to help bring some back."
These words were overheard by Guo Yuejing, who had just come out of the room: "Come, let me see. Later, I'll bring some back for my goddaughter and godsons."
Liu Chuxue went inside, fetched the fabric, and placed it on the table in the courtyard: "Here, these are the ones. They look very fresh for children to use."
After looking, Guo Yuejing nodded: "Alright, I've noted this. I'll handle it as soon as we reach Shanghai, so I don't forget."
Seeing Fu Yanwan had risen early and had already prepared breakfast: "Sister-in-law, breakfast is ready. I'll bring the food to your room, and we can eat."
Liu Chuxue nodded, then looked at Seeing Fu Yanwan with a beaming smile, speaking in a slightly coquettish tone: "I really don't want you to leave. My little sister-in-law is the best."
As soon as she said this, Guo Yuejing broke out in goosebumps: "Can you speak properly?"
Liu Chuxue rolled her eyes at her: "I'm speaking the truth. My little sister-in-law is the best little sister-in-law in the world."
"Right, right, right, you're right. I didn't say your little sister-in-law isn't good. It's just, can you stop being so sickly sweet? No, your look is also too unbearable."
As soon as she said this, all three of them, not knowing what they were thinking, burst into laughter.
Mo Ruhua from next door came in carrying a plate of brown sugar leavened buns she had made: "Sister-in-law, I heard your laughter early this morning, so I've come to join the fun."
Seeing Fu Yanwan was familiar with Mo Ruhua: "Sister-in-law Shen."
Mo Ruhua approached with a smile: "I came back late last night and didn't dare to disturb you. I kneaded some dough yesterday and made some brown sugar buns; I brought some over for you to taste."
Liu Chuxue pointed at Guo Yuejing: "Ruhua, this is Guo Yuejing, my friend."
Then she introduced Guo Yuejing: "This is Mo Ruhua, our neighbor next door. Our husbands are childhood friends, and we visit each other quite often."
After exchanging greetings and a few pleasantries, Seeing Fu Yanwan packed several chive boxes she had made: "Sister-in-law, these are chive boxes I made. Take a few back to taste."
Mo Ruhua knew that some time ago, to keep the chive seedlings warm, Liu Chuxue had fetched corn stalks: "After cutting this batch, they probably won't grow back, right?"
Liu Chuxue understood her meaning: "I asked Fu Yan Cheng to prepare two wooden boxes for me and put them in the room. I transplanted some chive roots into them, and they've already grown half an inch."
Hearing this, Mo Ruhua said: "Really? If it truly works, I'll set one up next year too."
Liu Chuxue had her own reasons for doing this: "Alright, I'll try it this year. If it works, you can plant some next year too. Then we can both enjoy something fresh, can't we?"
