Chapter 838: No Substantial Rewards
Chu Xue understood her feelings: "Mom, I'm counting on the baby in your belly. If it's not enough, I'll ask my colleagues to get some. Don't let yourself be wronged."
Zhao Lamei felt that she was being a little hypocritical, and quickly adjusted her mood: "I wanted to share some with your sister. After all, cotton is not easy to get, and everyone needs it at this time."
As he said that, he opened the cabinet and took out some money: "How much did you spend? I'll give you a refund."
Chu Xue wanted to forget it, but she realized she couldn't let them get used to it, so she said, "I didn't ask for cotton coupons. It's one dollar and fifty cents a pound, so eighteen dollars in total."
Zhao Lamei felt a pang of pain, but she still counted out the money and handed it to Chuxue happily: "You keep it."
Chu Xue pretended to refuse, but Zhao Lamei said, "We've already spent a lot of your money before. Now that we've moved to the city, your grandfather has given you a lot, and your father has a job. We can't let you support the family anymore. From now on, you can keep your own salary and don't have to hand it over to your family."
Thinking of something, she explained, "You're getting married next year, so it's a good time to save some money. I've been through this before, so just listen to me."
Chu Xue didn't refute, but smiled and nodded, saying, "Then I'll listen to my mother."
After saying this, she took the money calmly, and then the mother and daughter turned their attention back to the cotton.
While eating, Chu Xue thought of what Fu Yancheng had said on the phone that afternoon: "Mom and Dad, Yancheng called this afternoon and said that the people sent by my uncle's army have arrived today. They have already gone to my hometown to verify the matter and will probably go directly to see Jiang Suqing tomorrow.
Mom, don't go there tomorrow, in case you get angry when you see someone and have another miscarriage."
Zhao Lamei couldn't help but frowned when she heard this: "I don't know when they will meet Du Juan. I want to accompany her."
Chu Xue thought for a moment and said, "I'm really not sure about this. I'll call Yan Cheng tomorrow to see if he knows. Anyway, our home is not too far from my workplace. I'll take some time off and come back to pick you up."
Zhao Lamei also knew that this matter would cause trouble for her daughter, but Dujuan was her only relative on her mother's side so far. Now that her father was gone, it made no difference whether her mother was there or not. At this time, she, as an aunt, had to accompany the child.
Before she could go to the office to ask, Fu Yancheng came over in the morning.
When someone knocked on the door, Chuxue, who was about to go to the bathroom, ran to open the door and asked, "Why are you here?"
Fu Yancheng smiled and raised the fried dough sticks and doughnuts in his hand: "I'm bringing you breakfast, and I came to pick up my uncle and aunt by the way."
Chu Xue was confused: "Where should we take them?"
Fu Yancheng saw her confused look and said, "The army came here to investigate today. Their original schedule was to go to Jiang Suhua first. After I communicated with them, I met with Du Juan first."
Chu Xue didn't expect that Fu Yancheng had thought of all these details: "Yancheng, thank you."
Fu Yancheng moved closer to Chuxue: "Is there no tangible reward?"
The expression and tone of his voice made Chuxue blush.
She quickly glanced outside, turned around and looked at the yard, quickly kissed Fu Yancheng on the face that was extended to her, and immediately took a step back.
As soon as I stood firm, I heard Xiao's father's voice: "Chuxue, who's here?"
Chuxue quickly made way: "Dad, it's Yancheng coming."
Fu Yancheng originally wanted to tease Chuxue, but he didn't expect to get such a big surprise. He was laughing when he heard the voice of his future father-in-law: "Uncle, it's me."
