Chapter 917: What the Fu Family Said

~4 min read 758 words

After the car had driven a distance, Fu Yan Cheng finally said, "My parents announced to the family this morning that they will separate the household after we get married and return to my in-laws' home."

Liu Chuxue naturally had no objection; after all, when two spoons stir in one pot, clashes are inevitable: "Your parents are quite open-minded."

Fu Yan Cheng smiled, "Living separately can reduce many unnecessary troubles. Besides, my second brother and second sister-in-law will likely stay in the city after the New Year, which will save us from her causing trouble day after day."

Liu Chuxue looked at Fu Yan Wei in confusion, since this person rarely spoke ill of others: "Why would you say that?"

Fu Yan Cheng glanced at Liu Chuxue in the passenger seat: "Since we will be living together in the future, I naturally need to tell you about certain things in advance, so you don't suffer losses later due to ignorance of the situation."

Back then, my second brother chased her down to the countryside directly. Although my parents had many complaints, she was still his own son, so for these years they have sent them ten yuan every month. But as far as I know, very little of this money actually reaches their small family; most of it is used by my second sister-in-law to support her own natal family."

"Although this matter has nothing to do with us, my second sister-in-law dares to do anything for her natal family, so I am giving you a heads-up in advance. Keep it in mind."

Liu Chuxue leaned back: "If we really can't get along in the future, then we will move to the small courtyard ahead."

Fu Yan Cheng nodded: "Mm, that is what I was thinking too."

The reason he did not mention moving to the small courtyard immediately was that he often had to stay at the military unit; leaving Liu Chuxue alone in that small courtyard made him uneasy. If they lived with his parents, there would be someone to look out for her in case of trouble.

However, with his second brother and second sister-in-law returning, he was unwilling from the bottom of his heart for Xue'er to live with them.

He had learned that his eldest brother had already applied for housing at his work unit. His eldest sister-in-law likely guessed from his parents' conversation that his second brother and second sister-in-law were returning, which was why she applied for the housing.

Fu Yan Cheng only saw the person to the main gate: "It is getting late; I will not go in to greet your uncle and aunt. I will come earlier tomorrow night to pick you up."

Saying this, he opened the trunk: "This is a down jacket I asked someone to bring for you. Try it on when you get back and see if you like it?"

Liu Chuxue smiled and accepted it: "Thanks. I will wear it for you to see tomorrow night."

A smile appeared on Fu Yan Cheng's lips. He pulled the person over, held her in his arms, kissed her forehead, and then quickly let her go: "I will come to pick you up tomorrow night."

Having finished speaking, he released her and stepped back: "Go inside; it is cold outside."

After waving to him, Liu Chuxue pushed the door open and entered.

As soon as she entered the courtyard, she saw Xiao Fu standing in the yard: "Dad, I am back."

Xiao Fu glanced outside, then quickly withdrew his gaze: "Go inside."

The light in the living room was still on at this moment; it was clearly lit specifically to wait for her.

After entering the room, Xiao Mu naturally noticed the item in Liu Chuxue's hand: "You are back. What is this?"

Liu Chuxue placed the bag on the sofa: "It is a down jacket that Yan Cheng asked someone to bring back for me."

Hearing this, Chun Xiao kept staring at the bag, her eyes full of greed: "Second Sister, can I try it on?"

Liu Chuxue shot her a cold look: "Be quiet. This jacket was bought according to my height; you cannot wear it."

Xiao Fu also glared at his youngest daughter.

Only then did he look at Liu Chuxue: "What did the Fu family say?"

Liu Chuxue was also a bit tired: "Tomorrow night, we will meet at the state-run restaurant not far from our home to discuss the wedding date."

Xiao Fu and Xiao Mu nodded simultaneously: "They are quite considerate."
