Chapter 34 Shooting oneself in the foot
Fu's mother didn't go anywhere; she just waited at home.

Seeing the two return, she couldn't wait to ask, "Did you get your marriage certificate?"

"Took it."

"I've received it!"

Fu Mingxue and Qin Wenhuo responded at the same time.

Mother Fu: ...?
She was a little unsteady on her feet.

"—Let me see that marriage certificate."

Fu Mingxue looked at Qin Wenhuo: "Show yours to my mom."

Qin Wenhuo took the marriage certificate, folded into a small square, out of his pocket.

"Mom, here you go."

Fu Mingxue's eyes widened when she heard him address her that way.

Who is he calling "Mom" here?
Does he really consider himself a son-in-law?

Isn't this immersion a bit too fast?
Seeing her changed expression, Qin Wenhuo realized that this girl was quite interesting.

When Fu's mother heard Qin Wenhuo call her "Mom," she was stunned for two seconds—it felt a little strange.

She took the marriage certificate and opened it—when she saw her daughter's name and Qin Wenhuo's name, she stared at it for a long time.

Then he handed the marriage certificate back to Qin Wenhuo.

"Son-in-law, keep this safe!"

Fu Mingxue: ...?
Wait a minute, aren't they adapting to their new identities a little too quickly?

This made her seem particularly out of place.

"Now that you're married, you should live a good life together from now on. By the way, son-in-law, when are you going back home? Also, shouldn't you tell your family about getting your marriage certificate?"

"Mom, I'm going back tomorrow. I'll call home to tell them about Mingxue and me getting our marriage certificate. They actually feel the same way and hope we get it. As for the wedding—"

Fu Mingxue couldn't listen to this any longer. She quickly interrupted him, "There's no rush for the wedding!"

Now that the sword of fate has been removed, she had no intention of holding a wedding at all.

People are saying they're not having children anymore, so they'll definitely get divorced eventually.

If she weren't afraid of upsetting her mother, she would have divorced her immediately.

As soon as she spoke, both Fu's mother and Qin Wenhuo looked at her.

Fu Mingxue felt the pressure mounting. She forced a smile and said, "What I mean is—this wedding isn't urgent. I have to go to university to register after the New Year. If there's no time for the wedding, then it's better to wait until—" the end of next year.

They'll have already divorced by then.

Before she could finish speaking, Fu's mother interrupted, "Then let's wait until summer vacation, which is two months long, perfect for the wedding."

Fu Mingxue: ...?
“Okay. Let’s do as Mom says.” Qin Wenhuo nodded.

Fu Mingxue: ...?
Why is he calling me "Mom" so enthusiastically now, after breaking off the engagement earlier?
Now, when Fu's mother looks at Qin Wenhuo, it's just like the old saying goes—a mother-in-law looks at her new son-in-law and the more she looks at him, the happier she becomes.

"Since today is your big day, let's have a proper celebration for dinner. I'll go kill a chicken—son-in-law, you and Mingxue have a good talk."

The young couple only met today and are still quite unfamiliar with each other.

You'll get to know each other better if you chat more.

At this moment, Qin Wenhuo quickly said, "Mom, I have to go out for a while, I'll come back later."

When Fu's mother heard him say that, she nodded, "That's fine. You must be back before dinner."

"Then I'll be going now." Qin Wenhuo nodded to Fu Mingxue and left the Fu family home.

Fu Mingxue: ...?
Fu's mother glared at her daughter and said, "Since you insisted on this marriage, then you should live a good life with your son-in-law from now on. As for those two children, you should treat them well too."

The son-in-law is truly a good person to adopt his comrade's son!
