Chapter 1547: My Wife Is Just Smart

~4 min read 738 words

Fu's mother stayed in the family courtyard for five days, and when she left, she kept urging Liu Chuxue: "If Auntie Wei gets too busy, just have Fu Yan Cheng call me; I'll take leave again."

"Sitting the month properly is very important; if you can't change and wash the diapers in time, absolutely do not do it yourself. Wait for Fu Yan Cheng to return and let him do it. Remember?"

To be honest, Liu Chuxue hadn't expected her mother-in-law to be so considerate: "Mom, I've got it. Just rest assured."

Hearing this, Auntie Wei also repeatedly assured her: "Sister, even if you really get too busy, that child Wei Wenbin can lend a hand. Just rest assured."

Fu's mother looked gratefully at Auntie Wei: "Old sister, then I'm entrusting my daughter-in-law and my grandchildren to you. If Fu Yan Cheng is at home, just order him around for anything; don't tire yourself out."

She had seen these past few days that Auntie Wei was truly devoted, and that child Wei Wenbin was also very perceptive; he never idled upon returning, and most importantly, in the afternoons he went with the children in the family courtyard to gather firewood, which made one's heart ache and genuinely wanted to treat him well.

Getting along very well with the Wei grandmother and grandson these past few days was indeed reassuring.

After Fu's mother left, Auntie Wei took even greater care of Liu Chuxue and her family.

Having to feed three children at once, Auntie Wei prepared nourishing meals for Liu Chuxue in every possible way, fearing she might not produce enough milk for the three children.

After his own mother left, Fu Yan Cheng, worried Liu Chuxue might get too busy, directly submitted a leave application to his superiors; he had intended to rest for several more days, but they only approved ten days.

Liu Chuxue had just finished feeding the three little ones when she heard Fu Yan Cheng's voice coming from the yard: "Auntie Wei, I exchanged for a chicken in the village; cook half of it for my wife for lunch."

Auntie Wei took it with a smile: "Alright, I'll get it ready in a moment; there's still time."

Before long, footsteps were heard approaching the room; seeing Fu Yan Cheng enter, she asked: "Why are you back at this hour?"

Fu Yan Cheng glanced at the three little ones, now full and satisfied, then leaned close to Liu Chuxue and kissed her cheek first: "I went on an official errand to the unit's farm today; on the way back, I exchanged for a chicken with someone in the village along the route. I thought I'd bring it back early so you could have chicken soup for lunch."

Liu Chuxue pouted playfully: "It's not even time for dismissal yet; aren't you afraid someone will report you?"

Fu Yan Cheng raised his hand and pinched her nose: "A man does things his own way, naturally leaving no opening for others. I came back on a mission; it counts as official business. Delivering the chicken was just incidental."

Hearing his words, Liu Chuxue guessed a bit: "What mission? Could it be about the greenhouse?"

Fu Yan Cheng smiled indulgently: "My wife is just smart."

Liu Chuxue rolled her eyes at him: "You just said you went to the farm; naturally I'd think of the greenhouse. How does that make me smart? Your filter is really..."

Before she could finish speaking, Fu Yan Cheng leaned over again and kissed her cheek.

Liu Chuxue raised her hand to strike him, but the fellow dodged away with incredible speed: "What do you mean 'not related'? My wife is inherently smart; there's no need to 'connect' it."

"Wife, let's talk serious business. Here's the situation: the people responsible for watching the greenhouse said the plastic film is covered with water droplets; dripping water will rot the leaves and stems. Is there any countermeasure?"

Liu Chuxue frowned slightly: "Didn't we send someone to learn greenhouse cultivation? Don't they have a solution over there?"

Fu Yan Cheng shook his head: "I asked; they don't have a good solution either. They said it relies on ventilating during the day and raising the temperature appropriately, but with this cold weather, besides opening the vents at noon when the sun is strongest, who dares keep the vents open all the time?"

"Wife, do you have a solution?"
