Chapter 1673: I Want to Become Family with Uncle Fu and Aunt Fu

~4 min read 729 words

Early the next morning, after Wei Ruhua came to retrieve the stored items, Chuxue took Wei Wenbin to a school near their home and completed the enrollment procedures.

Of course, this was thanks to the Eunuch; he knew the school principal, and after seeing Wei Wenbin's past grades, the principal readily granted the favor.

She also took Wei Wenbin to the department store building, bought him a new schoolbag, and purchased a pencil case and several pens.

Wei Wenbin originally intended to pay, but Chuxue simply would not allow it: "In ordinary days, you have helped look after the triplets no end; this is a reward from your aunt, and I hope you will continue to work hard and achieve even greater success in your new school."

Wei Wenbin nodded heavily: "Auntie, I will study hard and will not bring shame to... the family."

Yes, in Wei Wenbin's heart, Chuxue and the others were his family.

Hearing him say this, Chuxue smiled: "Good, then your aunt will wait quietly for the good news."

When going downstairs to leave, she also bought some food for them before taking the people back home.

Wei Wenbin was very sensible; as soon as he entered the house and put down the items, he took over the triplets from his grandmother's hands: "Grandma, go busy yourself with other matters; I will watch them."

Because they were returning to the Fu family for dinner that evening, Chuxue said hello to Aunt Wei and then went out the door.

Wei Wenbin handed back the money his grandmother had given him when he went out earlier: "Grandma, this money wasn't spent; please put it away."

Hearing these words, Aunt Wei said: "I already brought you money; why did you make your aunt pay?"

Aunt Wei wanted to say more, but Wei Wenbin spoke up: "My aunt blocked me from taking out money; with my strength, how could I be her match? Besides, my aunt also said this is a reward for me helping her watch the triplets."

Grandma, I know what you want to say, but I want to become family with Uncle Fu and Aunt Fu; I don't want to be too polite with them. I will take Fu Bao and the others as my own younger brothers and sisters to care for; no, I have already taken them as my younger brothers and sisters. Grandma, do you understand what I mean?"

Hearing her grandson's words, Aunt Wei's eyes grew sore; how could she not hear her grandson's meaning: "Good, as long as your Uncle Fu and Aunt Fu need me, need us..."

She did not continue speaking, but the meaning she expressed was clear: "As long as they need us, if one day they no longer need us, that is another matter; it was also a reminder to her grandson not to be too greedy."

Hearing his grandmother's words, Wei Wenbin's face was full of smiles: "I understand; by that time I will have grown up, be able to take good care of Grandma, and will not grow distant from Uncle Fu, Aunt Fu, and the younger brothers and sisters."

Chuxue had forgotten to take something; as soon as she returned, she heard the conversation between the grandmother and grandson. To be honest, she was moved.

She also understood the meaning behind Wei Wenbin's words.

The child had cast them into the roles of parents; although their interaction felt somewhat like each taking what they needed, she thought it was quite good.

She did not enter the courtyard but turned and left.

After she left, she went directly to Houhai; unexpectedly, she met Lu Weijun there.

Lu Weijun was in plain clothes, his right arm in a cast, talking with several brothers there; as he turned his head, he met Chuxue's gaze.

His heart rate instantly accelerated; he did not expect to meet her here.

Chuxue nodded to him, lifted her leg, and wanted to leave; after all, they indeed had little interaction.

She did not expect Lu Weijun to, as if guided by a ghost, call out to stop her: "Xiao Chuxue, wait a moment; I have something to say to you."

She did not expect him to actually call out and stop her: "What is it?"

After Lu Weijun waved for the few people beside him to leave, he then walked toward Chuxue.
