Chapter 1679: Reporting for Duty

~4 min read 741 words

Liu Chuxue still had to report for duty the next day, so she took the children home early.

Fu Yan Cheng helped Liu Chuxue pack a set of bedding; when Liu Chuxue, who had just finished washing up and entered the room, saw it, she asked, "We're applying for day student status, so why are you preparing bedding?"

Fu Yan Cheng didn't stop his hands: "I thought if we could, we'd apply for a bunk. In case it rains or snows and it's inconvenient to go home, you'd still have a place to rest. What do you think?"

Liu Chuxue thought for a moment, nodded lightly, and said, "Alright, we'll see when we get there tomorrow."

After Fu Yan Cheng helped pack the things to be taken, he urged her to go rest early.

Once the two were in bed and lying down, Fu Yan Cheng held her and gave her detailed instructions again; afterwards, his hands became restless.

Since she knew she had to report to school the next day, he didn't go too far.

After a hearty session, she no longer thought of this and that; after Fu Yan Cheng helped her wash, she quickly fell asleep.

Early the next morning, Liu Chuxue was awakened by the scent of food; when she came to her senses, she sat up with a jerk: "What time is it?"

Seeing her like this, Fu Yan Cheng laughed outright: "It's still early. Since you're awake, get up and wash. After eating, our whole family will go out to see you off to school."

Liu Chuxue originally wanted to say not to let the children go, since there were many things to do, but to reassure Fu Yan Cheng, she nodded anyway: "Okay, we'll all go together."

Auntie Wei had gotten up early and made the meat-filled buns Liu Chuxue had taught her, served with millet porridge.

The children each had a steamed egg, plus a small half-bowl of millet porridge.

Fu Yan Cheng had loaded the things onto the cart in advance; after eating, except for Wei Wenbin who had to go to school, everyone set out.

They arrived not late, but quite a few people were already lined up.

Liu Chuxue thought about queuing herself, but Fu Yan Cheng wouldn't let her: "I'll queue. You and Auntie Wei sit over there and wait; when it's your turn, you can go over."

Seeing that the classmates standing at the back of the line now had no shade, she readily agreed: "Alright, then I'll trouble you to stand in the sun."

Seeing her smile happily, Fu Yan Cheng couldn't help but smile at the corners of his mouth too.

The reason he queued for her was that he saw there was no shade at the back; his wife's face was as tender as an egg, so he, the rough one, should queue.

Before queuing, Fu Yan Cheng didn't forget to instruct the triplets: "There are many people here; do not run around. You must not delay your mother's business, do you hear?"

The three little ones nodded like chicks pecking rice; Le Bao said in a milky voice, "Heard."

Kang Bao added, "Re... ached."

Fu Bao laughed: "It's 'heard'."

After speaking, he waved his hand at him: "Go queue quickly."

Then he turned up a smiling face to claim credit from Liu Chuxue.

Liu Chuxue reached out and pinched his little cheek: "My Fu Bao is truly great."

The little one giggled happily, drawing the attention of many people.

At this moment, a family member waiting nearby, just like them, looked at Liu Chuxue: "Are these your children?"

Liu Chuxue looked at that person: "Don't they look like it?"

That person clearly didn't expect Liu Chuxue to ask back: "Are all three of them your children?"

Auntie Wei, with a proud air, answered first: "These are triplets; do you say they are her children?"

This display by the triplets drew even more people's attention.

The person who had just asked exclaimed: "You're only so young, yet you're already the mother of three children?"

At this, Fu Yan Cheng's voice came: "Wife, it's almost your turn; get your documents ready."

Liu Chuxue smiled at him: "Okay, I'll go over when it's my turn."

The onlookers saw Fu Yan Cheng wearing a military uniform, standing out in the crowd like a crane among chickens, and someone couldn't help but say: "Truly a match of talent and beauty."
