Chapter 903 What is going on?
Chu Xue helped Fu Yancheng fill another bowl of rice, then she remembered Xiao Wanpeng and Duan Ruirui's wedding: "Mom, do you know why my uncle and his family postponed my fourth cousin's wedding to the second half of next year?"
She was busy those days and had no time to ask Duan Ruirui about the situation, so she went on a business trip later.
Xiao's mother added half a spoonful of porridge to her bowl: "Didn't the third son of your uncle's family go to the countryside? I urged him to get married before, but he said he hadn't met anyone he liked. But the fourth son just got married, and he called me back, saying that he was getting married on the 28th day of the twelfth lunar month, which is tomorrow.
"I asked your uncle to prepare everything for his wedding. Your aunt didn't know what to say for a moment, so she had to shamelessly go to the Duan family to explain the situation and postpone the wedding to after the New Year."
"What? Cousin Wanli is getting married tomorrow?"
"Yes, they are getting married in the Northeast. They said they would bring their wives back after the New Year when the weather gets warmer."
"What is this all about?"
"It can't be helped. After all, your cousin Wanli is the third child. He didn't have a partner before, so it wouldn't be a big deal if your fourth cousin got married first. But now he's already set a date, so it's not good to skip him."
"Who from the family went there?"
"Your uncle and aunt passed away a few days ago.
Your father and I asked your grandfather about it, and he said it's not convenient for me to go out now that I'm pregnant. Your father just started working and it's not a good idea to ask for leave, mainly because the Northeast is too far away. Your uncle also said there's no need to go and suffer, and we can get together when they come back."
After finishing the porridge in the bowl, Chuxue asked again, "Isn't the eighth day of the second lunar month also an auspicious day after the New Year?"
Xiao's mother put away the dishes and was about to get up to wash them, but Fu Yancheng took over and said, "Aunt, I'll wash them."
How could Xiao's mother let him wash, so she quickly winked at Chuxue.
Chu Xue hated washing dishes, but it was not a good idea to let Fu Yancheng, an outsider, wash them: "Let me do it. I can't let you wash it."
Fu Yancheng, however, stopped her and said, "You can't just eat and not work. Besides, I have to perform well."
After saying that, he picked up the bowl and went to the kitchen quickly, thinking: Fortunately, I didn’t bring Xiaowan here today.
Mother Xiao watched Fu Yancheng carry the dishes out and couldn't help but smile: "Yancheng is really good to you. When you get married, you have to be nice to him and stop being so petty."
Chu Xue looked outside: "I haven't even gotten married yet, and you're already convinced by him?"
Mother Xiao raised her hand and patted her: "What are you talking about? Who am I saying this for? I just want you and your wife to live in harmony and have a good life."
Chuxue didn't want to discuss this topic with her anymore: "Is there any cotton left from before?"
When Xiao's mother heard Chu Xue asking about the cotton, an unnatural look flashed across her face: "It's all used up."
Chu Xue was polishing her shoes with her head down and didn't notice her expression: "Then give me my cotton-padded jacket. It snowed all the way back here, and it got a little wet. It feels very damp when I wear it."
When Xiao's mother heard this, she quickly stood up and prepared to help her get it.
Hatsuyuki also stood up.
I only heard Xiao's mother say: "Just wait, I'll go get it."
Chuxue didn't listen and followed directly. Seeing the cotton coats and trousers neatly arranged on the cabinet, she immediately noticed a cotton vest on top.
Seeing Chuxue following her, Xiao's mother quickly explained, "Well, there was some cotton left over, so I made a cotton vest for Chunxiao."
Chuxue didn't respond, and took out her cotton coat and trousers from under her vest: "I'll go back to the house to change first. The sun is nice outside today, so it's a good time to put the clothes I changed out to dry in the sun."
