Chapter 185: I Believe Whatever He Says
The eldest sister-in-law came out today to cause trouble, likely because her daughter-in-law gave birth to another girl a month ago.
After all, the eldest sister-in-law, who has always competed with me, has one son and three daughters, while I have four sons and one daughter; she has been resentful about this many times, directly extending the competition from the previous generation to the next.
She just wanted her son to take the lead in having descendants, but unfortunately, things did not go as planned; her daughter-in-law and my eldest daughter-in-law both had girls as their first child, boys as their second, and when it came to the third child, my eldest daughter-in-law gave birth to a girl a month earlier than the eldest sister-in-law's daughter-in-law.
Now, the eldest sister-in-law felt she might turn the tables and finally feel proud, but she did not expect that her daughter-in-law, just like my eldest daughter-in-law, also gave birth to a girl.
So naturally, her temper was out of sorts again.
She really could not understand her sister-in-law; actually, she is quite good, except for this habit of competing, which she never seems to change.
The old master was obviously clear about his eldest daughter-in-law's nature: "Enough, don't you know what kind of person Fu Yan Cheng is? As long as it is something he says, I believe it."
Seeing the old master had spoken, the eldest sister-in-law of the Fu family pouted, turned, and went to the kitchen: "Sister-in-law Lu, soak some of the dried bamboo shoots Hao Nan sent from the south a few days ago and add a dish, so everyone can taste them."
The conversation outside just now was naturally heard by Sister-in-law Lu, the nanny working in the kitchen; besides loving to compete, the eldest daughter-in-law of the old commander had no other faults.
Indeed, she had not even been willing to eat the dried bamboo shoots her son-in-law sent, waiting for the people of the second household to come; Sister-in-law Lu could not help but shake her head with a smile.
After arranging things in the kitchen, the eldest sister-in-law of the Fu family came out of the living room, thought of something, and walked to Fu Mother's side: "Ruzhi, do you have the contact phone number for the North Suburb Farm?"
Fu Mother was holding her third son's daughter and teasing her: "Yes, do you need something?"
The eldest sister-in-law of the Fu family was not shy this time: "Fu Yanjing has just graduated from high school, and it is hard to find work now; the street committee came to mobilize again two days ago, and if she does not find work soon, she will likely be sent to the countryside. I thought that instead of waiting for an assigned place, it would be better to find connections early to have her assigned to your Yan Yan's place, so the two sisters can take care of each other."
Fu Mother naturally would not object; the children of the eldest household were all quite good, so she was naturally happy to see this: "Indeed, if they are closer, even if they cannot come back, we can take time to go see them, saving us from people bullying them."
The eldest sister-in-law of the Fu family nodded: "That is exactly what I meant."
Thinking of something, she coughed lightly: "It is just that the third son's Yanzi is pregnant and suffering from morning sickness badly; I will call over there just in case Yan Yan can find some wild apricots."
Hearing this, Fu Mother did not think there was anything wrong with asking her own daughter: "Yanzi is pregnant?"
The eldest sister-in-law of the Fu family did not intend to hide it: "Almost two months, suffering from morning sickness badly, unable to eat anything, just wanting something sour; this child is definitely a boy."
There it goes again; this sister-in-law of mine is good in every way, except when it comes to having children, she is particularly stubborn.
Fu Mother quickly changed the subject: "I did not memorize the contact number; I will check when I get back and tell you."
Seeing the old master talking about work matters with his son and grandson over there, the eldest sister-in-law of the Fu family spoke quietly: "What I said before was serious; the Qi family's little granddaughter in the compound has taken a liking to your Fu Yan Cheng; the Qi family wants me to act as a matchmaker, will you not consider it?"
Fu Mother waved her hand: "Don't you know what kind of person Fu Yan Cheng is? No one can make decisions for his matters; the urgency before was because he had shown no signs, but now it is different; since he has a Miss he likes, with his nature, it is definitely a matter of time, so I will not worry about it."
