Chen Fengying was holding a chubby little boy, about six or seven years old, with a simple and honest look and a very sturdy build. He smiled happily at Chu Yue.
"Hello, Aunt Chu."
He and Chen Fengying seem to be carved from the same mold, even their personalities are similar.
"This is my son, his name is Da Zhuang." Chen Fengying patted Da Zhuang's shoulder, pointed at Lu Yuanbao and said, "Da Zhuang, this is Yuanbao, he is younger than you, and he will be your brother in the future. You have to take good care of your brother and not let him be bullied by bad guys, okay?"
"Mom, I understand."
Da Zhuang walked towards Lu Yuanbao and took the initiative to greet and talk to Lu Yuanbao.
Chen Fengying walked to Chu Yue's side and whispered in her ear in a low voice, "Sister Chu, I heard about what happened yesterday. The two brats from Zheng Yue'e's family bullied your Yuanbao, didn't they? Damn it! Two kids beat up one, and Zheng Yue'e didn't do anything about it. But don't worry, let Yuanbao play with Dazhuang in the future. Our Dazhuang is not very good at studying, but he is definitely strong enough!"
Chen Fengying brought her children here today specifically for this purpose, so that the two children can get to know each other and help each other in the future.
"Sister Chen, please take good care of our Yuanbao in the future." Chu Yue accepted it readily. Besides, Dazhuang was a simple-minded kid, so she felt at ease letting Lu Yuanbao play with him.
"What trouble is it? We are all from the same compound, it's not a big deal." Chen Fengying waved her hands, smiled cheerfully, and moved closer to Chu Yue and continued, "I heard it all last night. The man in Zheng Yue'e's family beat the children? The crying was miserable... But the two little brats in his family should have been taught a lesson long ago, this beating was a good one!"
Chu Yue also felt so. Lu Zhanlin did not say any polite words to stop Zhao Wenwu at that time, but waited until they had really taught their son a lesson before speaking. Well done!
"Sister Chen, since you are here, please do me another favor."
"Whatever it is, just tell me."
"I want to meet some people in the compound and treat everyone to wedding candy. Zhan Lin and I got married. We didn't have a wedding banquet, but everyone can't be left out of the wedding candy."
When Chu Yue spoke, she had a sweet smile on her face. Her face was fair with a hint of red, and she looked like a shy girl.
Seeing her like this, Chen Fengying liked her even more, as if she had a new obedient sister in the family. She wanted to take care of her out of loyalty, completely forgetting that Chu Yue was the one who knocked Li Jinhua unconscious with a single knife.
Chen Fengying agreed immediately, "Okay, bring the wedding candy with you and I'll take you to meet the person."
Chu Yue immediately said thank you, and when she looked down, there was a hint of cunning in her eyes.
It was true that she wanted to distribute the wedding candies, but she also wanted to...eat her fill and settle the bill!
She would not let it go as Li Jinhua instigated and used the two children to bully Lu Yuanbao.
…
Not long.
"This is our new wife, Chu Yue, and this is our son, Yuan Bao. What a nice name! It brings good fortune..."
"We've met each other, so we know each other. We'll be neighbors from now on, so everyone should take good care of each other..."
"She's from Captain Lu's family. She just arrived a few days ago and saved Wang Chunling's life right after she arrived. She was the one who delivered Wang Chunling's child. Sister Chu is really amazing..."
With Chen Fengying around, Chu Yue saved herself a lot of trouble.
She didn't need to say anything, just smile aside. The original owner had the appearance of a fair-skinned and good student. She was considered young in the compound, and coupled with Lu Zhanlin's status, the sisters-in-law were all friendly to her when they saw her.
"So young? Already in your twenties? Captain Lu, you are really an old cow eating young grass!"
"The new daughter-in-law is so pretty! Captain Lu is so lucky to have a wife and a child all at once. No wonder she came home last night."
"I've heard about the delivery. You are not simple, sister! They had a meeting yesterday, and Sister Song praised you in public, saying that you dare to be the first!"
Chu Yue did not hand over the wedding candy directly, but gave it to Lu Yuanbao first. Lu Yuanbao had small hands, so he held the candy in both hands and handed it over, calling out "Aunt" and "Auntie".
This also allowed Lu Yuanbao to get to know the people around him and better integrate into life in the compound.
The colorful candies were distributed door to door.
The sisters-in-law who yesterday said Chu Yue was a spendthrift and spent money lavishly have changed their attitudes one by one.
Many people heard the noise and came out of their houses early, stretching their heads to look outside, their eyes full of anticipation, anxiously waiting for their turn.
That's wedding candy! It's candy!
It’s not easy to eat candy these days. Who doesn’t want to have something sweet, for free?
Moreover, Chu Yue was polite. She gave him a large handful of melon seeds for every penny he gave her, instead of just mixing two or three candies in a handful of melon seeds that could be eaten up in one go.
"What's wrong? What's going on? Are they distributing candy?" Li Jinhua came out a step late and asked immediately after seeing the commotion, her triangular eyes full of greed.
The sister-in-law beside her snorted and laughed when she saw her, "Mrs. Li, even if the candy is distributed, there is no share for you. That is the wedding candy for Captain Lu and his new wife, what does it have to do with you? Don't think we didn't hear how you scolded others these days. Haha."
Ever since Wang Chunling gave birth, Li Jinhua's long-cherished grandson became a cheap girl. Not only did Li Jinhua sneer at the pregnant woman who had just given birth, she also shouted throughout the compound that it was because Chu Yue performed a caesarean section to deliver the baby that she lost her grandson!
She blamed all the mistakes on Chu Yue.
The sisters-in-law had long disliked Li Jinhua and were too lazy to listen to her nonsense. She was not ashamed and cursed Chu Yue countless times behind her back.
If you put yourself in her shoes, it would be strange if Chu Yue was willing to share the wedding candy with Li Jinhua.
Li Jinhua was totally unaware of this, and got angry when she heard that she had no wedding candy, "Humph! We are from the same compound, why can you share but I can't! I still want to order this wedding candy!"
She folded her arms across her chest and stood at the gate of the yard, waiting for Chu Yue to walk past each family until she reached their home.
The other side.
Chen Fengying saw Li Jinhua waiting at the door early in the morning. She pulled Chu Yue's sleeve and gave her a sidelong glance.
"Sister Chu, Mrs. Li is there, let's not go over there. She has been gossiping about you behind your back these past few days, saying a lot of ugly things. You'd better give your candy to a dog than to someone like her!"
Chu Yue glanced in the direction of Mrs. Li, and a hint of sarcasm appeared at the corner of her mouth.
"Sister Chen, if I don't go over, I'm admitting defeat. Besides, it's not just Granny Li who's in the family. There's also Wang Chunling and the child. I delivered the child myself, so we have a connection. I should go over and take a look."
After Chu Yue finished speaking, she took the lead and walked towards Li Jinhua.
