Chapter 240 You really dare to think
In her previous life, she was busy with her career and became an older leftover woman. She doesn't want to repeat the same mistake in this life. Since Fu Yancheng is her type, it's not impossible to get engaged first.
She looked at the man seriously: "Have you mentioned me to your family?"
Thinking of the chaos after arriving home this morning, he coughed uncomfortably and said, "I said it."
Chu Xue had the help of mental power, so she naturally noticed his expression: "What are they thinking? I want to hear the truth?"
Fu Yancheng looked at Chuxue's serious expression and became serious as well: "I don't know who spread the rumor first. When I got home this morning, my mother stopped me and questioned me."
Chu Xue kept staring at his expression, waiting for him to continue.
Fu Yancheng had no intention of hiding it: "I went home this morning, and my mother pulled me aside when she saw me and asked me if the person I was dating was from the village?
Naturally I wouldn't hide anything, so I told her about our relationship.
After knowing that you are the girl who saved me, she was 100% satisfied, not to mention that she had no intention of objecting, but the person who spread those words must have bad intentions, so I wanted to book you as soon as possible to avoid any more trouble. "
Chu Xue was a little puzzled: "The only people who know about our relationship are from the village. It's impossible for them to contact your family. Who could have spread the word?"
Fu Yancheng took the basket from her back and said, "Don't worry, I've asked someone to check. I'll come and tell you as soon as I have any news."
The two of them went straight to the new house and saw a number of people helping to tend the stove in the open space outside the gate, including their brother-in-law.
Xia Qiu saw them coming back and walked over with a smile: "You are back."
At this time, the people who were helping in the village all looked over and said, "Chuxue girl, your backpack looks very heavy. Did you find anything good?"
Chuxue did not hide it: "I found a lot of black fungus, and I will add a dish for everyone tomorrow. I also have a few pheasants and rabbits, and I will add a few meat dishes for everyone. Thank you for your help during this period of time."
Hearing that there was meat to eat, the men who were helping were in a good mood, and their hands moved faster: "That's really a treat, we must build a solid stove and make it work well."
As they were talking, Liu's mother came over with Aunt Wu from the next village who was preparing the banquet. They heard their conversation and said, "Then you have to work harder to build the stove. I need to use the stove to boil water and prepare the game in the afternoon."
It is not easy for villagers to eat meat these days. After hearing what Aunt Wu said, the men worked harder.
Chuxue brought her into the yard and showed her the things in the basket: "Aunt, my boyfriend said he would go catch some fish this afternoon. Please think about what dishes we can make."
Liu's mother took people directly into the kitchen and let her take a look at the existing vegetables.
After a while, Aunt Wu came out and said, "I see there are a lot of squashes. Do you have eggs at home? Let's make some squash fried with eggs. There are a lot of vegetables. I want to make a cold dish with the black fungus in the basket."
I checked the vegetables I had: "I'll make chicken stewed with beans, rabbit stewed with eggplant, and fish stewed with tofu. That'll make six dishes."
The menu was decided, which was quite good in that era.
A bowl of vegetable soup and a steamed bun made of three-grain flour were added, and that was it.
After Aunt Wu gave a few instructions, she said to Liu's mother, "Your second daughter said there are still some fish. I will come over in the afternoon to deal with them together. I will go back first."
After sending the people away, Xia Qiu came over and whispered to Chuxue, "Chuxue, I heard from mom that you prepared all those things by yourself. Thank you, sister. You don't know that the melon made my mother-in-law proud.
My brother-in-law's marriage was immediately decided. He proposed yesterday and the date is set for the sixteenth of next month."
Seeing that there was no one around, he lowered his voice and said, "My great-grandmother has said that we will split up the family after my brother-in-law Shaocheng gets married and returns home."
Chu Xue heard this and asked, "Are the first and second houses to be divided, or are all the small houses divided?"
Xia Qiu raised his hand and poked Chu Xue's forehead: "What are you dreaming about? I'm already very satisfied that the first and second houses can be separated. You really dare to think so."
