Chapter 1218 Are you afraid I'll be wronged?
As Fu Yancheng pulled Chu Xue back into the courtyard, she glanced at Zhang Lianhua, who stood meekly beside Company Commander Cui.
Once inside his own house, Fu Yancheng whispered a reminder: "Company Commander Cui lives diagonally across from us. His wife is the type who likes to take advantage of others."
Upon hearing this, Chu Xue understood: "So that's why you were so disrespectful to her?"
Fu Yancheng helped the person into the house: "I'm a little worried about you being home alone on weekdays. That woman is shameless."
Hearing him say that, Chu Xue laughed: "Are you afraid I'll be wronged?"
Fu Yancheng poured her a glass of warm water: "The women in the family compound come from all over the country, and they have all kinds of personalities. If you can get along with them, great; if not, don't worry about anyone else and make yourself suffer."
Chu Xue nodded: "I understand. As for the dinner party you mentioned, let's do it in the next few days."
Fu Yancheng looked at her stomach: "Can your body handle it?"
Chu Xue laughed immediately: "Didn't you already say you bought the ingredients and delivered them to the cafeteria? It won't be tiring for me."
Fu Yancheng sat down next to Chu Xue: "When my eldest sister-in-law and third sister-in-law were pregnant, they vomited so badly that I was afraid I would have morning sickness too."
Chu Xue raised her hand to touch her stomach: "Except for that day when I couldn't stand the fishy smell, everything else is fine."
As the two were talking, they heard a knock on the door.
Fu Yancheng stood up: "You sit down, I'll go out and take a look."
Seeing the people standing outside the gate: "Why are you here?"
Company Commander Su said with a grin, "We heard that your wife is here, so we came to see her."
Following behind Company Commander Su, Deputy Commander Zhang chimed in, "We're going to Instructor Guo's place tonight. I'll have my wife come over and call your sister-in-law so she'll have company."
Fu Yancheng didn't reply: "I'll take her there in a bit, you can just go directly there."
Deputy Company Commander Zhang didn't expect Battalion Commander Fu to be so attached to his wife: "Alright, then we'll head over first and see if there's anything we can help with."
The first snow fell as she came out of the house and greeted them.
After the two left, Fu Yancheng said to her, "Deputy Company Commander Zhang's wife has a good personality. You can try to get to know her better. I'll introduce you to her when we go over later."
Chu Xue nodded: "It's getting late, let's not stay too late."
Fu Yancheng felt that Chu Xue's words made sense: "Okay, then let's pack up and head over."

As soon as Xia Qiu arrived home, she was told that her great-grandmother was not well.
She grabbed her son and ran towards her great-grandmother's house. When she got to the door, a neighbor who came to help stopped her: "You can go in, but don't bring Junjun in."
Xia Qiu naturally understood the other person's good intentions and handed the child over, saying, "Thank you for your trouble, Auntie."
She entered the room and saw that her great-grandmother's eyes were closed. She walked to Qiu Shaofeng, who was standing behind her, and asked, "Shaofeng, wasn't great-grandmother perfectly fine a few days ago?"
Qiu Shaofeng heard Xia Qiu's voice: "You're back just in time. I was just about to call you later. Great-Grandma fell the night before last and was in a very bad mood yesterday. This morning, Grandpa came over and couldn't wake her up."
As they were talking, Qiu Shaomei rushed in: "Mom, my second sister-in-law is about to give birth."
Upon hearing this, Qiu's mother quickly ran over, saying, "Why are you causing trouble at this time?"
Seeing this, Xia Qiu said, "You stay here with Grandpa and the others. I'll go see my sister-in-law and see if there's anything I can do to help."
Qiu Shaofeng grabbed Xia Qiu, who was about to leave: "Where's our son?"
