Chapter 244 Concerns from the Liu Family
There were originally eight tables of dishes, including three pheasants, four wild rabbits, and the fish, which would have been enough to make the meal quite impressive. However, the girl's boyfriend also prepared thirteen pounds of meat. To be honest, in all the years she had been preparing banquets, this was the first time she had seen so much meat.
After all, whether it is wild game, fish or meat, they are all scarce and it is impossible to get them without some skills.
Those who were jealous of Chuxue's family couldn't find any excuse to complain. After all, there was an unwritten rule in the village that only those who had hunted large wild animals in the mountains could come to the village, and as for these pheasants and rabbits, it was up to each one to hunt them based on his own ability.
Every family in the village has hunted wild animals in the mountains, so it is understandable that they hunt a few more to make the banquet look better.
Liu's mother asked Xia Qiu to stay in the room reserved for her and her husband, for fear that people coming and going in the yard would accidentally bump into her.
Aunt Wu is indeed an expert at preparing banquets. By dark, she had almost finished preparing the ingredients, and all she had to do was wait for the next morning to cook them. "Hang the processed meat into the well. After all, it's hot now."
Mother Liu responded, "Okay, we'll take care of it later."
After seeing Aunt Wu off, Fu Yancheng did not stay in the Liu family for long. After dinner, he drove to the commune guesthouse.
Originally Chuxue wanted to let her live at home, but Liu's father and mother disagreed. Fu Yancheng also didn't want to move in before she settled down, for fear of causing unnecessary trouble to Chuxue.
However, he was very satisfied with Chuxue's attitude: "After a few days, my family will come to propose marriage, and our relationship will be made public. I will come and live at home in the future."
Without waiting for Chuxue to say anything, he got into the car quickly, started the car with a smile and prepared to leave. However, he thought of something and stuck his head out of the window again: "I'll practice driving with you after I finish my work tomorrow."
He patted the steering wheel and said, "This time we're going to learn how to drive a jeep."
After saying that, he smiled and waved to Mr. and Mrs. Liu who were standing not far away, then drove away.
As soon as Chuxue entered the yard, Xia Qiu came over and asked worriedly, "Xue, what's the situation at his home? Will his family agree?"
Chu Xue knew her sister was worried about her: "He said he would ask his family to propose marriage in a few days."
Seeing that Father and Mother Liu were also looking at her, and seeing that they couldn't avoid it, she continued, "He has a grandfather above him, but he doesn't live with his parents. His parents both have jobs. He has three older brothers and a younger sister. His second brother and youngest sister are now working in the countryside."
Father Liu said solemnly, "Xue, you have to think it over carefully. There are so many brothers in your family. Will you be bullied if you marry into the family?"
Mother Liu also echoed, "Your father and I naturally hope that you sisters marry well, but if the marriage is not well-matched, if you get bullied in the future, I'm afraid we won't even be able to help you."
Chu Xue knew that they were all doing this for her own good: "Yan Cheng said that his parents are very open-minded, and they wanted me to follow him to the army after we get married. Besides, even if we get married, I'm not yet 18 years old and not of legal marriage age, so it's too early to get married.
As for his family, we will meet them when we propose marriage. If they look down on us country folk, we can just part ways."
Mother Liu patted her on the back of the head and said, "Now everyone in the village knows that you are dating someone in the city. If you really break up, who knows what people will say about it?"
Chu Xue smiled and hugged Liu's mother's shoulders: "Alright, there will always be a way out. Your daughter has a diploma, looks, and abilities. Even if you can't be with him, you will definitely find someone good in the future. Don't worry."
