1970s: A hot-tempered wife who accompanied a soldier to the military compound and made a fortune.

Chapter 284 Are you hiding something from me?

After Fu Yanming came out, he took his sister and her classmate Sun Juanjuan directly to the state-run restaurant.

Fu Yanwan didn't stand on ceremony with her older brother and ordered her favorite braised pork slices and eggplant with minced pork.

Fu Yanming gestured for Sun Juanjuan to order her favorite dishes, but Sun Juanjuan waved her hand and said, "I'm not picky, you guys can order whatever you want."

When they arrived, there weren't too many guests, and the dishes were served quickly.

Sun Juanjuan was perceptive and could tell that the brother and sister had something to say, so after the food was served, she quickly finished her rice and said, "Yanwan, Brother Fu, I have something to do, so I'll take my leave first. You two can continue eating."

Fu Yanwan knew she hadn't eaten well: "Wait a moment."

She got up, spoke to the waiter for a few minutes, paid a deposit, and received a lunchbox and two large white steamed buns.

He walked back to their table, piled a lot of food on it, and then handed it to Sun Juanjuan: "Since you consider me a good sister, don't refuse. You've helped me so much, you have to eat your fill."

Sun Juanjuan felt a little embarrassed. She glanced at the eldest brother of the Fu family who was standing beside her. Seeing that he also nodded at her, she took the bag and said, "Then I'll go first."

As soon as Sun Juanjuan left, Fu Yanming looked at his younger sister with a smile in his eyes: "Not bad, you've grown a lot."

"That's right. Ever since I came to the farm, I've done everything myself. How could I not grow?"

Several classmates came to the countryside with me, but whenever something happened, only Juanjuan stood up for me. The others were always wise after the event, so over time, we drifted apart.

"The reason we didn't mention Uncle Zhang's matter to you before was that the family wanted you to get some experience. We can't always rely on someone to back you up whenever something happens, or you'll never grow up. Also, we felt that this place wasn't far from home, so if something really happened, we could come and deal with it in time. We hope you won't blame the family."

"How could that be? I understand Mom and Dad's good intentions. This must have been Grandpa's idea, right?"

Fu Yanming was surprised that his sister guessed it so quickly: "Well, Grandpa thinks that Mom and Dad and us brothers have protected you too well, so he thought he would take this opportunity to let you experience the different aspects of life outside."

Fu Yanwan's eyes widened: "You guys are so heartless." Fu Yanming picked up a piece of meat and put it in his sister's bowl: "If you were really heartless, Grandpa wouldn't have sent you to the North Suburb Farm. You ungrateful wretch."

Fu Yanwan shrank her neck, stuck out her tongue, and picked up the piece of meat that her older brother had picked up.

Just as he put it in his mouth, he remembered what had happened earlier: "By the way, big brother, are you guys hiding something from me?"

Fu Yanming had just picked up a piece of food with his chopsticks: "Which aspect are you referring to?"

Fu Yanwan quickly swallowed the meat in her mouth: "Those things we heard before, is the Fu Yancheng they were talking about Fourth Brother?"

Fu Yanming nodded, then shook his head.

Fu Yanwan was extremely anxious: "Big brother, what do you mean by this?"

Fu Yanming laughed and said, "It's hard to say. I did hear from my family that your fourth brother's girlfriend is from a village under Changping, but we have never met her and don't know exactly where in Changping she is from."

"Didn't Fourth Brother mention it to Mom and Dad?"

"If it weren't for the rumors circulating in the family compound about your fourth brother dating, your family would probably still be in the dark."

"Huh? What does that mean?"

"The rumor that your fourth brother is dating was first spread by people in the family compound, and the family only confirmed it with your fourth brother."

"Fourth Brother is really something, why does he have to keep his relationship a secret?"

"No, Fourth Brother isn't that kind of person. Given his personality, he'd only do that if he hadn't yet won her over."
