Chapter 1840: She Isn't Just Dating; She's Getting Married
Hao Yanhong, having spoken thus, looked at Guo Wenjing and Liu Chuxue, her face saying, "Ask me quickly."
Guo Wenjing played along: "Speak quickly, who did you see?"
Hao Yanhong laughed, glanced toward the courtyard entrance, then lowered her voice: "I saw Yurong's cousin, Jiang Xiaoya. When she took the ticket to leave, she happened to see me."
Guo Wenjing finished handling the fish in her hands: "What's strange about her going to Jin City? I remember Yurong said before that Jiang Xiaoya's paternal aunt married into Jin City."
Hao Yanhong waved her hand: "You don't know. I hadn't even asked her when she walked right up to my window. Do you know what she said?"
Hearing this, Liu Chuxue had some guesses in her mind: "Could it be that the third sister-in-law found a partner and is getting married?"
Hao Yanhong rolled her eyes at Liu Chuxue: "So uninteresting, how did you guess right away?"
Guo Wenjing exclaimed in surprise: "She really found a new partner?"
Hao Yanhong coughed lightly: "Eldest sister, speak quietly, don't let Mother-in-law hear, or we won't be able to eat this meal well today."
Guo Wenjing was also frightened and glanced outside; fortunately, Mother-in-law was playing with her grandson, granddaughter, and grandson-in-law there and couldn't hear what they were saying.
Only then did she turn back and continue asking: "What exactly did Jiang Xiaoya say to you?"
Hao Yanhong sighed, wiped the look of schadenfreude from her face, and spoke: "She isn't just finding a partner; she is getting married."
At this, the kitchen instantly fell silent.
They knew that the third son, Fu Yanhong, had long regretted his actions and had sought Zhang Yurong several times to reconcile. Last time, Mother-in-law had said that with Jinyi, her own daughter, present, as long as he admitted his mistake with a good attitude and showed his sincerity, Yurong would soften her heart for the children's sake. Now, the other party had simply gotten married.
Fu Yanwan walked in at this moment: "Eldest sister, is there anything to eat? I'm a bit hungry."
Hao Yanhong was the first to react: "I brought a roasted duck. How about I give you a duck leg to gnaw on first?"
Fu Yanwan quickly waved her hands: "No, no, no. I'll just find something to eat quickly for now; it's better to eat together later, otherwise those little ones will cry from craving it, and Mom will criticize me again."
As soon as she finished speaking, she was caught red-handed by her own mother: "What bad things are you saying about me again?"
Fu Yanwan quickly smiled apologetically: "You heard wrong. How would I dare say bad things about you? It's just that the one in my belly is hungry, so I came to find something to eat."
Guo Wenjing handed her a two-grain bun: "There's meat sauce made by Mom in the cabinet over there. Put some inside it to tide you over; we can eat in another half hour."
Hearing there was meat sauce, Fu Yanwan happily took it: "That's wonderful."
Just as the meal was nearly ready, Father Fu and his son Fu Yanwei entered the courtyard.
Afterwards, the several children of the eldest branch happily ran into the courtyard.
When the dishes were served, Hao Yanhong was very diligent in distributing bowls and chopsticks to everyone; this enthusiasm made everyone feel somewhat uncomfortable.
Mother Fu couldn't help but look at her again: "Second daughter-in-law, did something happy happen to you?"
Liu Chuxue glanced at the eldest sister-in-law, and both of them laughed; Mother-in-law really knew how to speak in reverse.
Hearing Mother-in-law's words, Hao Yanhong first looked at her husband sitting beside her; seeing he had no intention of speaking, she coughed lightly and smiled: "There is one good thing, but let everyone eat first; after the meal, I'll tell everyone."
Hearing this, everyone, in tacit understanding, did not speak again.
Father Fu picked up his chopsticks first: "Everyone eat; whatever the matter is, we'll discuss it after the meal."
Hearing this, everyone understood that Father Fu probably already knew what the matter was.
