Chapter 436: Taking Out Anger on the Wrong Target

Fu Yan Cheng at the men's table also stood up: "Eldest Aunt, Chuxue is not only my savior but also the person I went to great lengths to win over; her excellence is likely unmatched by any Miss in the city."

Fu's Eldest Aunt had originally felt she had lost control of her tongue and indeed should not have said those things on such an occasion, but seeing Fu Yan Cheng give her no face at all made her feel she had lost face: "In the eyes of a lover, even Xi Shi appears; however, your words have indeed gone too far."

Fu's Eldest Uncle angrily tugged his wife's sleeve and smoothed things over, saying: "Yan Cheng's standards are naturally high, so his niece-in-law is naturally no ordinary person; after marriage, the couple will surely join hands to secure a bright future."

Hearing her husband's words, Fu's Eldest Aunt laughed outright: "No ordinary person, then how many kinds of people is she? After marriage, Yan Cheng should still find a way to transfer her household registration to the city; otherwise, if they have children later, they won't even have enough grain rations to eat."

As soon as she said this, the faces of the Second Branch of the Fu family immediately darkened, and several voices rose at once.

Fu's Grandfather was faintly furious: "Shut up."

Fu Yan Cheng's voice rose at the same time: "Eldest Aunt, my affairs do not require others to..."

But before he could finish, Chuxue's mother interrupted: "Yan Cheng, my Chuxue is not irreplaceable to you; perhaps you should go back and discuss it properly before coming again."

At this moment, Chuxue also walked in from outside the door: "I mean the same thing."

Now the entire Fu family became frantic; Fu's mother grew anxious too: "Eldest Sister-in-law, usually your loose tongue with me is one thing, but today you truly should not have spoken those irrelevant things regardless of the occasion. As for Yan Cheng's affairs, I, as his mother, cannot decide them, let alone you, his Eldest Aunt."

Fu's Grandfather never expected his eldest daughter-in-law to be so confused; yesterday afternoon when he stepped out of his room, he heard his little granddaughter call home to complain to her. He naturally knew what scheme she had been hatching before, but even if the Qi family's granddaughter were willing, if Yan Cheng did not like her, it would be Bai Da; this was taking out his anger on the girl's partner.

Fu's Eldest Uncle was also stunned; if the nephew's engagement were ruined because of his own family, how could he face his younger brother's family later, and how could he explain it to his nephew: "Peilin, you have gone too far; hurry and apologize to the niece-in-law and the entire in-law family."

At this moment, Fu's Eldest Aunt was also somewhat panicked; yesterday her little daughter had called to complain to her: she didn't want to stay on the farm for even a single day; not only were her hands covered in blisters, but she was mocked every day.

Admittedly, hearing this, she felt angry toward Yan Cheng in her heart; if he had listened to advice and gotten together with the Qi family's granddaughter, not only would the men in the family have advanced their careers another step, but even her little daughter could have been transferred back through the Qi family's connections; this way, even if someone tried to find fault, they could say nothing.

But Fu Yan Cheng was as if his brain had been flooded with water, unable to distinguish pros and cons, insisting on marrying such a country Miss.

She had thought of her daughter and, unable to hold back her anger, wanted to needle him a few times, never expecting such a huge chain reaction: "I'm sorry; I meant no harm; I just wanted to remind Yan Cheng that if he settles down, it would be best to resolve his wife's household registration issue in advance; I only meant well."

Chunxiao, standing at the door, spoke quickly: "You need not worry about these things; my second sister already has city household registration; there is no need for your fake kindness."

Hearing this, everyone turned to look at Chuxue.

Since Chunxiao had already said it, there was no need to hide it any longer; besides, this matter was never intended to be hidden for long: "My sister is right; my household registration has already been transferred to my workplace; Eldest Aunt need not worry about these things."

Fu's Eldest Uncle quickly smoothed things over: "See what I said? The person Yan Cheng values is certainly no slouch; their future life will surely be good."
