Chapter 1206 First Snow's Little Thoughts
Chu Xue didn't expect that her uncle would take what she had just said casually to heart: "Aunt, please thank Uncle for me. I'll go pick it up when I get back from the military family compound. I won't go in and sit down. Yan Cheng is still waiting for me in the car over there. I'll go to my uncle's house in a bit, and then go back to my mom's."
Xiao Nianchun followed Chu Xue's gaze and saw the jeep parked over there: "Then I won't keep you any longer. When you come over, I'll have your uncle make you braised pork."
Chu Xue smiled and nodded: "That's settled then. I really miss my uncle's cooking."
Thinking of her second brother's baby, Xiao Nianchun slapped her forehead: "Wait a minute."
As she spoke, she picked up the dried seafood that Chu Xue had given her, turned around, and jogged back to the ticket office. When she came out again, she had two milk powder coupons in her hand: "Please take these to your dad. Your uncle got them from someone. These are the only two we have for now. We'll try to get some more from someone else later."
This was a matter between the siblings, and she had no reason to refuse on behalf of her father: "Okay, I promise to deliver it. I thank you and your uncle on behalf of my little brother whom I've never met."
Xiao Nianchun rolled her eyes at Chu Xue: "Look at what you're saying, that's my own nephew, it's only right that I exchange him for a few milk powder coupons."
The two chatted for a few more minutes. A couple came over to buy tickets. Chuxue told her aunt to go back to work and strolled over to the car parked by the roadside.
Fu Yancheng was already waiting by the car. After settling everyone in, he jogged over to the driver's seat.
Chu Xue glanced at her watch: "Auntie should be home at this time."
Fu Yancheng started the car and said, "It's okay, it's on the way anyway."
Hearing his words, Chu Xue burst out laughing: "You really dare to say that. If the road is smooth, you'll probably have to drive more than ten miles."
Fu Yancheng saw his wife smile and said, "Anyway, there's still time; it's just a matter of stepping on the gas."
Actually, he had heard that pregnant women should not enter the postpartum room, for fear of causing any disturbance.
But he was too embarrassed to tell his wife directly, so he thought he should delay returning to the Xiao family.
Chu Xue had actually thought of this long ago, but she knew her mother's personality all too well. As the older sister, how could she not go in and check on her younger brother? So she had already made up her mind.
According to current custom, it's best to keep your pregnancy a secret until you're three months pregnant, as that would be safer.
But right now, he couldn't keep it a secret. Whether or not he could go in to see his younger brother was up to his mother to decide. Besides, revealing the pregnancy would save him a lot of trouble, since his mother probably only had her son in her heart and mind right now.
If I were prevented from entering the postpartum room, it might save me a lot of trouble.
However, this would mean that my eldest sister and aunt would have to work much harder.
When they arrived at the railway family compound, Auntie was picking vegetables, while her cousin's son, Ji Yaoyang, was making things worse: "Auntie, are you busy?"
Hearing the voice, Zhang Haitang looked up and met Chu Xue's smiling eyes: "Chu Xue is here, come in and sit down."
As she spoke, she pulled Ji Yaoyang, who was squatting there causing trouble, up and said, "Yangyang, call her Second Aunt."
Ji Yaoyang was a lively boy. He raised his dirty little hands and tried to jump into Chu Xue's arms, but his quick-witted grandmother grabbed him by the collar: "Your little hands are filthy. You can't jump into your second aunt's arms."
Fu Yancheng, who entered a little later, was also startled. He quickly stood next to Chu Xue, looking as if he would pick her up if she pounced on him, which made Chu Xue laugh.
