Chapter 1327 Sorry, I didn't discuss it with you beforehand.
Fu Yancheng suddenly remembered something, turned around and took out a biscuit box from under the cabinet: "Wife, this is my savings. I've been thinking of giving it to you. From now on, you're in charge of our family."
When he bought the house, Fu Yancheng wanted to give her the money, but Chu Xue almost asked him to pay back the money for the house, so he temporarily gave up the idea and thought he would give it to her after they got married, since she would have to accept it eventually.
However, this thing has been sitting in the family compound all this time, and these days he's either been busy or he's been too attached to someone to remember it.
Chuxue didn't refuse; after all, where the money is, there the heart is.
Fu Yancheng thoughtfully opened the biscuit box, revealing a small stack of ten-yuan bills, along with some smaller bills tied with rubber bands. Putting these together, there were two bankbooks and some coins underneath.
Chu Xue opened one of the savings books, and there was still more than 6,200 yuan on it.
Fu Yancheng explained, “This is the salary I have left over from these years. The other book contains the bonuses from these years. The top one was given by my grandmother when she was alive. However, my grandmother was a bit biased towards boys, so she gave more to her grandsons. My younger sister and her family only gave a token amount.”
Thinking of something, she got up and walked to the cabinet. After rummaging around for a while, she took out a flat wooden box from under the cabinet: "This was given to me by my grandmother before. She said it would be given to her granddaughter-in-law later."
Chu Xue was startled when she glanced at the amount on another passbook, because this passbook had only deposited money and never withdrawn any. The top deposit was two thousand yuan, and the rest were several hundred yuan. From these deposited amounts, one could roughly tell how difficult the task was. Her nose tingled with emotion. Apart from the two thousand yuan given by Grandma Fu, each subsequent deposit was earned by Fu Yancheng at the risk of his life.
Fu Yancheng noticed Chu Xue's emotional change and reached out to hold her hand: "Don't worry, I want to stay with you and the child for a long, long time to come. I cherish my life."
As she spoke, she put the passbook into the biscuit tin and opened the flat box: "These were also given by Grandma. She said they were for her future granddaughter-in-law, so you should keep them too."
Inside the wooden box were a pair of white jade bracelets, two jade pendants (clearly a couple's jade pendant), and a jade hairpin.
The Fu family has quite a few grandsons. Chu Xue looked up and asked, "Every grandson?"
Fu Yancheng coughed lightly: "The money is the same, but these old items were only given to me."
Chu Xue asked, puzzled, "Why?"
Fu Yancheng put his hand to his mouth and coughed again: "Grandma said that's all the stuff, it's not worth dividing it up, so to avoid any complaints about whether it's too light or too heavy, she simply gave it all to me."
Upon hearing this, Chu Xue glanced at the contents of the room and asked, "So, of all the grandsons, you were Grandma's favorite?"
Fu Yancheng laughed: "Perhaps it's because I'm the youngest grandson, so Grandma naturally favors me a bit."
Chu Xue examined all the items. Although there were six pieces in total, the bracelet looked very valuable, while the other pieces were of average quality. Although there were exactly five grandsons, it was still difficult to divide them up.
It seems that Grandma Fu is a wise person.
Fu Yancheng pinched Chu Xue's nose: "Alright, this thing can't be exposed to the light right now, you can keep it."
Chu Xue nodded: "Okay, I will definitely keep it safe."
Fu Yancheng thought of the first snow: "Is the matter at the steel mill settled?"
First Snow nodded: "It's temporarily over."
Thinking about the payment: "By the way, after I got that job opportunity, I sent it to my sister. It's the same job as hers, and I got paid 1,000 yuan. But I have to pay you back for now. Sorry I didn't discuss it with you beforehand."
