Chapter 1781: I Always Feel Liu Laosan Has Fallen Into a Trap Set by Someone

Seeing everyone had arrived, Fu's mother didn't make them wait long: "I called everyone back today because there's something I want to tell you all."

She took a deep breath first, then slowly spoke: "I just received a call from Liu Laosan Yanhong; he said he's dating someone at school..."

At this point, she paused, picked up the water cup on the table, took a sip, and continued: "That Miss is pregnant. Her family has approached that rascal Liu Laosan, demanding they marry immediately, with a bride price of one thousand yuan."

"If we don't agree, they'll make a scene at the school."

Everyone finally understood; no wonder their mother insisted everyone return.

Fu's father slammed his palm on the table in anger: "That scoundrel! How has going to school made him even more unreliable?"

Fu's mother stammered for a while, then added: "The woman's side also demands that for the wedding, we must provide the 'Three Transports and One Sound' and 'Seventy-Two Legs'."

Now everyone grew restless; they were still students, so even if they bought all these things, where would they put them?

Could it be they'd have to buy a house in Jin City as well?

Everyone turned to look at Fu's mother; Fu's father glared at her and said: "Just say it all at once, don't drag it out like squeezing toothpaste."

Fu's mother simply closed her eyes and stated the final demand: "They require him to move in as a matrilocal son-in-law."

Now everyone was even more speechless.

Fu Yanming spoke first: "What does Liu Laosan mean? What is his own thought on this?"

Fu's mother sighed heavily again: "That rascal said let us figure out a way for him; he doesn't want to move in as a matrilocal son-in-law."

As soon as she finished speaking, Fu Yanming asked again: "What do you mean he doesn't want to move in as a matrilocal son-in-law? Does that mean he's willing to marry that woman and bring her home?"

Actually, at this moment, no one wanted him to marry such a wife into the family; the household had only just become harmonious; if another formidable person or troublemaker came in, wouldn't things be very troublesome from now on?

Fu's father spoke up then: "Since he brought this upon himself, we can't interfere; let him decide for himself; we won't get involved."

Fu's mother rolled her eyes at him: "He called back to ask me to convey a message: he wants to borrow money from the family. What do you all think of this?"

Hao Yanhong spoke up then: "What does that mean? Is he borrowing from Mom and Dad, or from us siblings?"

Fu Yanwei, sitting nearby, replied: "What nonsense are you spouting? Borrowing from Mom and Dad is essentially borrowing from all of us anyway."

After glaring at him, Fu's father turned to look at his wife: "I have a feeling there's something fishy about this matter."

At this, Fu Yanwan spoke: "My third sister-in-law has always wanted another child; oh, I mean my former third sister-in-law, but after drinking medicinal soup for several years, nothing happened. How is it that this woman is so lucky to get pregnant so quickly?"

Liu Chuxue also felt this made sense and glanced at Fu Yan Cheng.

Then Fu Yan Cheng said: "I have a comrade-in-arms over there; I'll make a call in a moment to ask him to investigate that family, and we'll see the situation before deciding."

After hearing this, Fu's mother couldn't wait a moment longer: "Go find someone right now; later I'll prepare a thank-you gift; don't let them work for nothing."

Fu's father looked at his sons: "I was thinking, perhaps we should go over there and see what exactly Liu Laosan is up to?"

Fu Yanming also agreed: "I also think we should go over and see what's going on."

Fu Yan Cheng had no objection: "If we should go, we'll go; I'll have my comrade-in-arms investigate; we'll proceed on both fronts."

Guo Wenjing leaned close to Liu Chuxue: "I always feel Liu Laosan has fallen into a trap set by someone?"
