Chapter 1409 Why aren't you dealing with those people?
He gave a few instructions to the men before letting them take the person away.
He turned to Wang Sangyu and said, "Sister-in-law, Lao Guo will be back before noon tomorrow. I will send someone to investigate why they did this."
He didn't say that the couple should make the decision, for fear that someone might use it to make a fuss.
Wang Sangyu said gratefully, "Thank you all so much for today. When Lao Guo comes back, come over for a drink."
None of them took it seriously, after all, they had a good relationship with Instructor Guo, not to mention that they had been partners before.
After offering a few words of reassurance, they left.
Upon arriving at Battalion Commander Feng's house next door, they said, "Sister-in-law, we're here."
Before he could finish saying "I've come to pick up my wife," Chu Xue and Mo Ruhua had already stood up from their stools.
Chu Xue said to Tang Xinrui, "Sister-in-law, there's still food stewing on the stove at home, so we won't stay any longer. We'll come over and bother you again when we have time."
Tang Xinrui laughed: "Look at what you're saying, sister-in-law. What do you mean by 'bothering'? I'm more than happy that you came. It's a good opportunity to keep me company."
He smiled and escorted them all the way to the gate.
After walking for a while, Mo Ruhua couldn't hold back any longer: "Aren't you going to deal with those people?"
Shen Kaiyuan looked at his wife with amusement: "You don't understand, do you? If we go over there to question them now, they probably won't give a straight answer. We don't have that much time to waste on them."
As Fu Yancheng listened to the couple's conversation, a smile involuntarily appeared on his lips: "Wife, are you hungry?"
Chu Xue nodded gently: "I am a little hungry."
Fu Yancheng reached out and put his hand on her arm: "We can eat as soon as we get home."
Mo Ruhua chimed in, "I thought it would be a bit more of a commotion, but I didn't expect it to end so quickly."
Shen Kaiyuan said irritably, "What can I say about you?"
Mo Ruhua smiled charmingly: "Then let's not talk about it anymore."
Before even entering the courtyard, the aroma was irresistible, and Chuxue's stomach rumbled appropriately.
Fu Yancheng laughed along, "Looks like the little ones can't wait."
Chu Xue disagreed, saying, "It's not that they can't wait; they don't even look at what time it is now!"
Fu Yancheng felt a little jealous seeing his wife so protective of the baby in her belly, but the most important thing right now was that his wife was happy: "Yes, yes, I misspoke. Please sit down, I'll go get the food."
They had just started eating when the Cui family across the street started making a scene: "Is this some kind of idiot? Everyone's struggling to make ends meet, but there's this delicious smell coming out every day. How can they have no sense of public decency? Are they deliberately trying to tempt my grandson?"
Company Commander Cui saw that his mother had forgotten the pain of her past mistakes and was about to start causing trouble again: "Mom, what did I tell you before? Deputy Regiment Commander Fu's wife is pregnant with triplets. That means one person is eating for four people. The doctor told her to supplement her nutrition as much as possible. Deputy Regiment Commander Fu is of a high rank, so his salary is naturally high. He has no burdens at home, so he is naturally willing to spend money to nourish his wife. Just say less."
With her excellent hearing, Chu Xue naturally overheard the conversation in the courtyard. She looked at Fu Yancheng and Shen Kaiyuan, who had just come out with their food, and asked, "It's been a month since school started, why haven't those three—grandparents and grandchildren—gone back to their hometown yet?"
Mo Ruhua spoke first: "I'm afraid they're not leaving. Those two children are attending elementary school in the military now."
After Fu Yancheng sat down, he picked out a piece of fish, removed the bones, and put it in Chuxue's bowl before saying, "Company Commander Cui's hometown is in a county under Tang City, and it was also affected by the disaster there."
Upon hearing this, Chu Xue immediately understood: "I see."
He didn't say anything else, but he was thinking to himself that things were probably going to get interesting.
