Chapter 22
"After breakfast, Shen Yao, take Fuyue for a walk on the street and see if there's anything else you need to buy for your house." Chen Guifeng then said to Ye Fuyue, "We prepared the wedding in such a hurry that we didn't have time to buy many things. Just tell Shen Yao what you want to buy and let him buy it. Don't be shy to ask."
Ye Fuyue still had a good impression of her mother-in-law Chen Guifeng. She smiled and said, "Okay."
The other side.
Shen Shun went to school with his backpack on his back. On the way, he met Wu Aixia who was also going to school.
Although he and Wu Aixia, one in the first grade of junior high school and the other in the first grade of high school, were in different schools, they had the same route to school.
Wu Aixia caught up with Shen Shun and patted his shoulder: "Why are you so listless? Did your new sister-in-law bully you?"
"How do you know?" Shen Shun asked in surprise.
Wu Aixia said proudly, "Of course I know. My mother said that a new daughter-in-law should be suppressed, otherwise she will bully everyone and think she is the master of the house. I heard my mother say that your family made breakfast today, so I know that your family must have been bullied by your new sister-in-law."
Chen Shun suddenly realized something, and as if he had found an ally, he began to list Ye Fuyue's crimes: "Not only did she not make breakfast, she also snatched the last bun! Usually, I eat the last bun at home, but after she came, the last bun became hers!"
Wu Aixia opened her eyes wide in disbelief. "How could she be so shameless! She's snatching food from a little kid. This kind of thing would never happen in my family. If my sister-in-law dared to snatch food from me, my mother would definitely scold her to death!"
Hearing Wu Aixia say this, Shen Shun felt even more aggrieved, aggrieved and angry: "My mother and my brother not only didn't help me, but also scolded me!"
Wu Aixia looked at him pitifully: "You are so pitiful. Fortunately, my brother did not marry your sister-in-law and dumped her."
"What did you say?" Shen Shun was stunned.
"Don't you know?" Wu Aixia said, "My brother used to date your sister-in-law. Later, my brother didn't like her anymore and dumped her, so she went to find your brother."
Wu Aixia summarized these words based on the rumors in the compound and what she heard at the dinner table this morning.
Ye Fuyun and Ye Fuyue got married one after another. They are sisters and both married into this slum. People in the slum had long known that Ye Fuyue had dated Wu Longfei before.
This morning at the dinner table, Ye Fuyun seemed to mention casually that Chen Guifeng had made the Shen family's breakfast today.
Zhou Jinmei said contemptuously at the time: "Fortunately, Long Fei didn't end up with her and didn't marry her. Marrying such a lazy daughter-in-law would only bring misfortune to the family and make everyone unhappy. The Shen family is really unlucky to have married such a daughter-in-law."
Wu Longfei also said: "I just saw that she was too lazy, like a piece of wood, and very boring, so I broke up with her."
"Well divided." Zhou Jinmei added.
Although Zhou Jinmei and Wu Longfei did not mention Ye Fuyun in their conversation, Ye Fuyun felt that every word they said was praising her.
When she was clearing the dishes after dinner, she was much more energetic than usual.
Wu Aixia made that conclusion after hearing these words.
This was the first time Shen Shun heard of this.
Although he lived in a slum and had to go to school, he didn't interact much with the people in the slum. Even if the people in the slum were gossipy, they wouldn't gossip in front of a child.
At this time, after listening to what Wu Aixia said, Shen Shun was shocked and indignant. He said, "Does my brother know this?"
Wu Aixia shrugged: "How should I know? Maybe your brother didn't know these things, so he married your sister-in-law."
"In the future, you'd better be more careful with your sister-in-law. If she treats you badly, you just make trouble with her. You are the boy of the Shen family. She is an outsider. How can she be more important than you?" Wu Aixia gave the advice out of what she thought was good intentions, and walked towards another fork in the road.
Shen Shun walked towards the school silently, feeling that his brother was definitely deceived by Ye Fuyue!
His brother is not nice to him now. He must be bewitched by Ye Fuyue!
As soon as he gets back, he will tell his brother the whole truth!
…
After breakfast, Shen Yao took Ye Fuyue out.
"We're going to visit our parents tomorrow, so let's buy some things for them as well." Chen Yao said.
"You know my parents' character. No matter how much we bring back, they won't remember our kindness, let alone feel sorry for us and let us bring anything back. I think we should just do like Ye Fuyun and just bring back a pound of brown sugar." Ye Fuyue said.
Shen Yao was still a little hesitant: "Is this okay?"
Although he did know the character of Ye Fuyue's parents, he was going back to visit his parents after all, and he was afraid that if he brought too few things, Ye Fuyue's parents would blame him, and the people in the family compound would also talk bad about Ye Fuyue behind her back.
"Okay." Ye Fuyue said, "Let's just live our own lives. Don't worry about my parents or what others say."
Only then did Shen Yao say, "Okay, I'll do as you say."
Although they came out to buy things, the enamel basins, towels, enamel cups and other things in the house were all new. Ye Fuyue only wanted to buy some new tables, cabinets and some small storage items.
However, they went around department stores and furniture factories, but Ye Fuyue was not satisfied with anything.
There were only a few styles of furniture in this era, and when Ye Fuyue looked at them from a later age, she really didn't like them very much.
"Is there no one you like?" Chen Yao saw what Ye Fuyue was thinking and asked.
Ye Fuyue shook her head and suddenly thought: "If I provide the furniture drawings, will there be a carpenter who can make it?"
"Yes." Chen Yao said, "Next to our compound is the furniture factory's family compound. My mother is quite familiar with some of them, so I can ask her when the time comes."
After a pause, Shen Yao asked, "Do you want to draw the furniture drawings yourself?"
"Yes, the style of furniture I want is not available here." Ye Fuyue said, "But if I ask someone to make it custom, won't it be much more expensive than buying a ready-made piece?"
"It's okay. You should prepare new furniture for your wedding. Even if it's expensive, it won't be much more expensive. What's important is that you like it."
Ye Fuyue was relieved: "Okay, then I will design it myself and find someone to order it later."
After buying the brown sugar and settling the furniture, Ye Fuyue and Shen Yao went home.
As soon as they entered the compound, an aunt saw them and said, "Isn't this the new daughter-in-law of the Shen family? She's dressed so beautifully today!"
Ye Fuyue smiled at her and replied kindly, "Auntie also looks particularly energetic and in good spirits."
"Oh my, the new daughter-in-law of the Shen family is really good at talking. No wonder Shen Yao likes you." Aunt smiled.
However, Shen Yao pulled Ye Fuyue forward.
