Chapter 1449 Wife, I'm sorry to have wronged you.
Just as Cui Wenbing had expected, the person who demolished his front door never imagined that he would be summoned by his superiors first.
After the mother and son went to the clinic, people from higher authorities came to investigate.
The neighbors who came out immediately after hearing the noise all said they didn't see anyone suspicious outside.
Even during the first snowfall, people came to her door asking questions. She calmly recounted her morning itinerary and her return time, but when the investigators saw her pregnant belly, which looked like she was about to give birth, no one doubted her abilities.
They didn't find the perpetrator, but they did thoroughly investigate what the Cui mother-in-law and daughter-in-law had done in the family compound.
After reviewing the investigation materials, the leaders gave Cui Wenbing a severe dressing-down.
Fu Yancheng naturally knew what had happened in the family compound. Worried about Chuxue, he rushed back as soon as it was time.
That's right, it's a running machine.
It was late autumn, and he was covered in sweat when he entered the courtyard: "Wife, I'm back."
Chu Xue had already prepared the meal and was cutting out quilt covers in the yard. She had asked Sister Tao for advice yesterday and was preparing to try it out today.
I've already arranged with Sister Tao. She'll sew the four sides with a sewing machine first. After the cotton batting is in place, I'll ask Sister Tao to come over and guide me on how to hand-sew the middle of the quilt to secure the batting.
Fu Yancheng looked at his wife's belly, then at the scissors in her hand: "Wife, why don't we send the things back to my mother and have her help us make them? Don't tire yourself out."
Chu Xue finished cutting the last bit and rolled her eyes at him: "My body is getting heavier and heavier, so it's not good for me to go out and walk around anymore, or to look at those documents. This is a good opportunity to clear my head. I'd be happy to make clothes for the babies."
After saying that, she looked up and pretended to be angry, saying, "Don't even think about taking away my right to happiness."
Hearing her say that, Fu Yancheng couldn't help but smile: "Alright, alright, as long as you're happy, but don't overwork yourself."
Seeing the food on the stove, he said, "Wife, you can leave the cooking to me from now on. If I have something to do, I'll have someone come back in advance to let you know, and then I'll have someone get you food from the cafeteria and bring it back to you."
Chu Xue waved her hand and said, "That's right. I can take care of myself. If you really do that, who knows what will happen in the family compound. Although I don't care what they say, I can't stand how enthusiastic the women in the family compound are. They'll definitely try to persuade me, and I can't take that."
Fu Yancheng thought of the donation a few days ago. Several of her sisters-in-law who knew about it came to her door one by one to have a heart-to-heart talk. They said that she couldn't be so lenient with her money when she was making a living. She would have to raise her children in the future. Although it was a good deed, she couldn't just ignore it. After all, she would still have to make a living in the future.
His sisters-in-law meant well, but his wife was too embarrassed to tell him that she only earned a few hundred yuan for translating a book, and she couldn't show her displeasure. It was only when he came back that he was able to rescue her: "Wife, I'm sorry to have wronged you."
Chu Xue tidied up the things on the table: "It's not that I feel wronged, after all, my sisters-in-law meant well. It's just that my ears can't take it."
Fu Yancheng helped her put the things in a basket on the side: "You sit down, I'll go get the food. By the way, the cafeteria is making braised pork for lunch today. I asked Xiao Guo to get a portion for me, and he should be bringing it over soon."
Upon hearing that the cafeteria served braised pork, Chu Xue smiled and said, "I have to say, I was really craving it today, and I never thought my dream would come true."
These days my excessive sleepiness has improved, but I don't know if it's because the baby in my belly is craving something, or if my hormones have changed and even my tastes have changed. I didn't like fatty meat much before, but lately I've been eating it without hesitation.
