Chapter 348 You've raised an amazing daughter

After arriving home after the first snowfall, I quickly washed my hands, grabbed the new plastic sheet I had prepared, and climbed onto the roof.

The sun is shining brightly today. These dried vegetables have been drying for two days and are now completely dry enough to be stored away.

There are no plastic bags or anything like that now. To prevent moisture, we can only put them in pre-cut plastic bags and then tie them tightly.

In winter, villagers eat Chinese cabbage, potatoes, and radishes, as well as various dried vegetables in the summer. So, looking out from the rooftop, you can see dried vegetables drying in front of and behind every house.

Just as she was finishing up, she saw a jeep coming this way. At first, she thought it was Fu Yancheng, but after looking closely, she realized it wasn't.

The car stopped at the bottom of the slope, and the Party Secretary, who got out of the car, immediately saw the first snow on the roof: "First Snow, someone is looking for you."

Chu Xue recognized the person getting out of the driver's seat: "Deputy Director Gu, Comrade Gu, what brings you here?"

She had barely finished asking her question when another woman got out of the back seat: "Comrade Liu."

Upon seeing the first snowfall, she recognized Li Xiaoya, the daughter-in-law of Deputy Factory Director Gu: "What's going on here?"

Li Xiaoya took her son out of the car and pointed to him, saying, "Look, the aunt who saved you is over there."

Gu Qianshan called out in a clear voice, "Auntie."

When Chu Xue heard him call her "Auntie," she thought to herself: It seems that Li Xiaoya wasn't just talking; she's got her son on her side. She really treats her like her little sister. She smiled and replied, "Yes."

After saying that, he quickly packed up his things, picked up the tied plastic bag, and climbed down the ladder.

The Party Secretary then led his men up the slope to the gate.

Chu Xue went out to greet her: "Come in quickly."

Upon seeing what they were carrying, they exclaimed, "Oh dear, what are you doing? Why are you carrying so much stuff again?"

Li Xiaoya carried things in one hand and held her son's hand with the other: "Qianshan, from now on this person is your aunt, remember that?"

Gu Qianshan may be young, but he's very clever: "I'll remember. If it weren't for Auntie, I would be dead. When I grow up, I'll take good care of Auntie." Since he'd already said that, she had no choice but to accept him as her nephew: "Auntie will remember that."

Gu Qianshan nodded and said seriously, "Qianshan keeps his word."

Deputy Factory Director Gu found his grandson's serious expression somewhat amusing, but he didn't actually laugh out loud, afraid that his grandson would get angry. He quickly stepped forward and said, "Comrade Liu, can I call you Chuxue from now on?"

Chu Xue smiled and nodded: "Okay."

Seeing that they did know each other, the Party Secretary, with great insight, said, "Chuxue, you two talk, I'll go and call your father and the others back."

Chu Xue quickly thanked him, "Thank you so much, Secretary."

At that moment, Deputy Factory Director Gu quickly pulled out a cigarette: "Brother, thank you for bringing us here. Here, have a smoke."

Seeing that the man was genuinely offering the cigarettes, the village secretary didn't refuse: "Oh dear, these are high-end cigarettes, so I won't be polite."

The two exchanged a few more words before the Party Secretary left, smoking a cigarette and looking quite pleased with himself.

Chu Xue invited them into the house, quickly went to her private plot to pick a watermelon, cut it up, and brought it in: "Here, this is a watermelon we grew ourselves, have a taste."

Gu Qianshan took the melon Chu Xue handed him, took a small bite, and his eyes lit up instantly: "Grandpa, Mom, the melon is sweet."

As he spoke, his eyes narrowed into slits with laughter.

At this moment, Liu's father and mother, who had received the news, also entered the room.

When Deputy Factory Director Gu saw them come in, he quickly stood up and said, "It's nice to see you again."

After exchanging a few pleasantries, he continued, "You have raised a remarkable daughter."
