Chapter 900: Can't Lose to Fourth Brother

~4 min read 675 words

Fu Yan Cheng appeared calm on the surface, but in truth, his heart was more agitated than anyone else's.

Fu Yanwan, who had been silent all along, was now delighted: "Fourth Brother, I haven't seen Fourth Sister-in-law in so long. Tomorrow, I'll go with you; it's the perfect time to get to know the place."

Fu Yan Cheng did not refuse: "Fine, but you can't sleep in tomorrow morning."

Fu Yanwan smiled brilliantly: "I definitely won't hold you back."

Thinking that the wedding date could be set before the New Year, Fu Yan Cheng felt his blood boil with excitement: "Dad, I was thinking we could hold the wedding banquet in your factory's canteen then. The space is large, and since your Second Canteen was just renovated, it's not only spacious but also grand."

Fu's father naturally had no objections and nodded with a smile: "Fine. Once the date is set, I'll give the factory a heads-up in advance to avoid someone else booking it first."

Fu's mother also nodded upon hearing this: "May 1st is a good day. It's possible other families might choose that date too, so we must secure it early."

With the matter settled, everyone returned to their own rooms.

As soon as Hao Yanhong entered her room, she complained: "Mom and Dad always say they treat everyone equally, but look at their attitude toward us brothers. It's as if we aren't their own children."

Fu Yanwei heard this and said impatiently: "Enough, say less. Mom and Dad are stating facts. As for the attitude you mentioned, I defied them back then; how could you expect them to show me a good face?"

"Other branches can say this, but you cannot. After all, those ten yuan every single month without fail over the years were real, hard cash. You think Big Sister-in-law and Third Sister-in-law have no complaints? Just watch your own mouth. Don't provoke a public outcry, or things will be hard to resolve later."

Hao Yanhong fell silent.

At that moment, the couple in the eldest branch were chatting: "Yanming, is there any news about the housing from the unit? Second Sister-in-law looks like trouble. If Fourth Brother really gets married and splits the household as Mom said, we should move out quickly to avoid trouble."

Fu Yanming pulled back the covers, got into bed, and pulled her close: "It should be approved after the New Year. I'll find time to urge them again."

Guo Wenjing looked up at him: "If it really doesn't work out, find a chance to give some New Year gifts to the person in charge of housing allocation and ask them to be flexible."

Fu Yanming kissed his wife on the forehead: "Alright, I'll listen to you."

Guo Wenjing lightly tapped him: "I'm talking about serious matters; what are you doing?"

Fu Yanming turned and hugged her tighter: "I am talking about serious matters. Are you misunderstanding? I..."

Before he could finish, Guo Wenjing covered his mouth: "Behave yourself. I'm talking about serious matters."

Fu Yanming pulled his wife's hand away: "Alright, alright, let's talk serious matters."

Yet, after saying this, he took advantage of his wife's unpreparedness to kiss her cheek again: "Serious matters, serious matters."

After receiving a white eye from his wife, he smiled and pressed his face against hers: "You speak, you speak; I'm listening."

Seeing that he had behaved, Guo Wenjing continued: "The date for Fourth Brother seems basically set. As his older brother and sister-in-law, we must show our support. Do you think giving cash is better, or giving gifts?"

After putting the two-year-old Fu Jinyi to sleep in the third branch, Zhang Yurong snuggled into Fu Yanhong's arms: "Seeing that Fourth Brother's date is about to be set, we must hurry up and make a baby. We can't lose to Fourth Brother."

Fu Yanhong was originally exhausted and wanted to sleep early, but hearing his wife's words, he suddenly found motivation and reached out to turn off the light: "You're right. We can't lose to Fourth Brother."
