Chapter 482: Firmly Determined to Return to Huicheng

Hao Yanhong wasn't stupid; she naturally understood Fu Yanwei's concerns.

But these years in the countryside, she had done the work of gathering pig grass, and most of the household chores were done by Fu Yanwei; if they returned to Huicheng, she would still have to share the housework, which was indeed a problem.

Suddenly, she thought of something: "Anyway, the family knows I'm pregnant; this excuse is perfect to use."

Hearing her words, Fu Yanwei felt some regret for joining her in this nonsense; if the lie was discovered, how would he ever have the face to face his family again: "Hao Yanhong, didn't we agree it was just an excuse? Do you still want to keep pretending?"

Besides, Mother, Sister-in-law, and the younger siblings are all experienced; given time, they will inevitably discover the signs. If we are exposed, how can we possibly stay in that family afterward?"

Hao Yanhong's face flushed; she leaned close to Fu Yanwei: "Then how about we try hard and really give Jinze a younger brother or sister? He's already five; by the time we return to Huicheng, he should be starting kindergarten anyway."

Actually, she had her own plans; if she really got pregnant, after returning to Huicheng, would the family let a pregnant woman cook, wash clothes, and clean the house?

In this way, even if she had no job, she wouldn't be considered a freeloader in that family, after all, she was carrying the Fu family's grandson.

Yes, just do it.

Hao Yanhong thought of something and spoke again: "Don't wait until noon tomorrow; get up early tomorrow and go to the farm to sound out your sister about the situation with the fourth one's partner, so we can be mentally prepared."

Mentioning his own younger sister, Fu Yanwei felt a bit awkward: "I have to work the morning shift tomorrow; let's go at noon instead."

Seeing him make excuses, Hao Yanhong got angry again: "Fu Yanwei, what's your attitude? If I tell you to go, you go."

Fu Yanwei raised his hand and rubbed his face: "Last time we went home, the money Mother gave for the things for Fu Yanwan was all used by us; if you have the face, you go."

Hao Yanhong didn't expect Fu Yanwei to yell at her: "Can't you speak properly? Why are you yelling at me? Don't forget the words you said when you chased me back then."

Fu Yanwei sighed heavily, utterly exhausted; at this moment, he truly regretted not listening to his family's advice.

Just then, five-year-old Fu Jinze came running back from outside the door, crying: "Mom."

Hao Yanhong, though selfish, was very good to her son; hearing her son cry, she quickly opened the door and rushed out: "Son, what's wrong? Why are you crying?"

Fu Jinze hugged Hao Yanhong, who had squatted down: "Jiang Xiaoning said he's going back to Huicheng; he'll have endless milk candies to eat, and he's going to eat roast duck."

Hearing her son's words, Hao Yanhong felt a bitter taste in her heart; Jiang Lijun had arrived a year later than them, yet now he was returning to Huicheng ahead of them.

Hearing the commotion behind her, Hao Yanhong turned to look: "Did you hear what your son said? We can endure slowly, but what about our son? What kind of life do the children of the First and Third Branches live in the city, and what kind of life does our Jinze live?"

Now Fu Yanwei fell silent too.

Indeed, Jincheng from the eldest brother's family was the same age as his own son, but last year the eldest brother had sent him to the Rolling Mill's kindergarten; the last time he went back, Jincheng was reciting poems to his little sister while looking at her, and the gap between his son and his nephew was truly significant.

The original concerns in his heart, upon seeing his son's little face as tear-stained as a calico cat, became firm; indeed, they could no longer stay in the countryside, or else his son would be held back too.
