After hearing Chu Yue's words, Chen Fengying tilted her head slightly. Her expression was like an emoticon that said, "Really? I don't believe it!"
She ignored the delicious meat roll in her hand and chased Chu Yue to ask, "Really? Have you figured it out? Pregnancy is a confusing matter for those involved, and this is your first pregnancy, maybe you didn't notice it?"
Chu Yue was almost amused by Chen Fengying's plausible words, and she had no choice but to remind him, "Sister Chen, I'm a doctor. How could I not know whether she is pregnant or not?"
Chen Fengying slapped her forehead and said, "I really forgot such an important thing. Yes, you are a doctor. But you'd better be careful. Maybe you are really pregnant, but you are still young and don't know. After a while, you will give Yuanbao a little brother."
Chu Yue really laughed this time. She didn't expect that even after she said so much, Chen Fengying still didn't give up and continued to talk about the child.
In the end, he was interrupted loudly by Chen Dazhuang.
"I don't want a brother! I don't want a brother! I don't want a brother! If I have a brother, he will snatch the meat from me - Aunt, I want another meat roll, give me another one, and give it to me with two scallions!" After Chen Dazhuang finished yelling, he did not forget to continue asking for food.
He always felt that the rolls he made himself were not as delicious as Chu Yue's, and the meat was more fragrant.
Chu Yue put down the green fruit in her hand, but didn't dare to eat any more, for fear that Chen Fengying would nag about her pregnancy. She quickly grilled pork belly for Chen Dazhuang and made meat patties.
Chen Fengying poked Chen Dazhuang on the forehead and taught him a lesson, "What a fool you are! You have to trouble Sister Chu for everything without any help."
In the lively atmosphere, people ignored Lu Yuanbao's silence.
Lu Yuanbao was holding a delicious meat roll in his hand. He hadn't taken a bite of it for a long time, and his little face looked dazed.
Pregnancy...younger brother...
These two words turned over and over in Lu Yuanbao's mind, and finally, affected by the noisy atmosphere, they blended into the hustle and bustle and disappeared.
The barbecue party in the yard was lively and colorful. The aroma of roasted pork belly could be smelled throughout half of the yard. People were immersed in the feast after eating and drinking to their heart's content. Suddenly, there was a hurried knock on the door, interrupting the party.
"Ah Yue, Ah Yue... open the door quickly." The courtyard door was not closed, and Wang Chunling came in gently. She was holding the child in her arms, and she was in a panic. When she saw Chu Yue, she immediately reminded her, "Ah Yue, it's bad. I was outside with the child to bask in the sun, and I saw Fang Xiuli coming towards you. I saw that she brought a lot of people with her. She came to quarrel with you."
It was more than just a quarrel, it looked more like they were out for revenge or a gang fight.
Wang Chunling didn't dare to say anything too exaggerated, but she was worried about Chu Yue, so she came to inform her in advance.
"Fight? What does she want to do?" Chen Fengying shouted loudly, and said nervously, "Then let's close the door and pretend that Sister Chu is not at home. Xiu Li will go back if she can't find anyone."
"Sister Chen, the whole house is filled with fragrance. Many people know that you are eating at my house. You can hide me, but you can't hide the fragrance." Chu Yue was calm and composed. She took a bite of the crispy roasted pork belly and said calmly, "Let her come. I haven't done anything wrong. Am I afraid of ghosts knocking on the door?"
Chen Fengying and Wang Chunling were dumbfounded by Chu Yue's calmness. How could she not be panicked or afraid at all?
Even so, Wang Chunling thought about it and whispered, "Ayue, that's Fang Xiuli, we..."
Chu Yue knew what Wang Chunling wanted to say, which was nothing more than mentioning Fang Xiuli's parents' family background in the capital.
Lu Zhanlin was not attracted to He Meijiao at first, so why would she be afraid of Fang Xiuli?
Chu Yue curled her lips and smiled, "My husband is still Lu Zhanlin. Lu Zhanlin is the head of the regiment, and Fang Xiuli's husband is the deputy head of the regiment. We are in the family compound now, not in the capital. No matter what, I, the wife of the head of the regiment, am more powerful than her wife of the deputy head of the regiment."
That was true, but Wang Chunling and Chen Fengying were still worried and did not have the calmness and confidence like Chu Yue.
And what a coincidence, Chu Yue's teasing joke was heard by Fang Xiuli.
With a clang, Fang Xiuli kicked open the door of Chu Yue's house. The fragile wooden door was kicked crooked and the hinges were shaking and about to fall off.
Fang Xiuli walked into the yard aggressively. She didn't look at anyone else but Chu Yue and asked angrily, "You are such a jerk! You have only been married to Lu Zhanlin for a few days, but you are acting like the wife of the regiment leader so quickly. You don't even take me, the wife of the deputy regiment leader, seriously! Does Lu Zhanlin know that you talk like this behind his back? Has he ever seen your ugly face?"
The relaxed smile on Chu Yue's face suddenly disappeared.
Before, she had been considerate of the face of everyone living in the same compound and had been tolerant of Fang Xiuli as much as possible. But now she was too lazy to tolerate it anymore.
Chu Yue stood up, her eyes darkened, and she looked at Fang Xiuli coldly, "Fang Xiuli, you didn't come here with such a big crowd just to listen to my story. If you have something to say, just say it directly, don't waste everyone's time, I still have to eat here, I'm not as free as you!"
Fang Xiuli's already angry expression became even more furious because of Chu Yue's words.
The people who came in with Fang Xiu Li hurried to comfort her, "Xiu Li, forget it, let's forget it... Sister Chu is eating, it's not good to disturb her while she's eating..."
"That's right, let's eat... Xiu Li, we are not angry anymore. It's not worth it to be angry. It will cause wrinkles. Cool down quickly and stop arguing."
"Xiu Li, stop making a fuss. It would be terrible if Sister Song found out. If you feel uncomfortable, we can go back and talk to you. Let's go now."
Wang Chunling just said that these people came with Fang Xiuli to have a fight. It seems that she was wrong. They came together, but this time they were obviously not on the same page with Fang Xiuli. They looked quite strange and kept persuading Fang Xiuli to calm down.
This attitude is different from the usual attitude of the sisters-in-law who just like to watch the fun and not mind getting involved.
Chu Yue quickly noticed it and frowned, thinking something was fishy.
When Fang Xiuli saw this, she thought Chu Yue was disgusted with her and deliberately frowned to show her disdain for her.
You Chu Yue, she didn’t even despise her, but she dared to despise her!
Such misunderstandings added fuel to the fire.
Fang Xiuli strode to Chu Yue, pointed at Chu Yue's nose and scolded her loudly, "You Chu Yue! When I was not around, you drove He Meijiao away. I just thought you were petty and jealous for a man. I didn't expect you to be so cruel and slander people behind their backs! Chu Yue, you are so scheming. Did you drive He Meijiao away in this way? It's not enough to drive her away, now you are plotting against me! Chu Yue, I tell you! I will never let it go! Let's go! Let's find Sister Song and Commander He to judge the matter. I want to drive you out of the compound!"
