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

Chapter 422 I just wanted to see their attitude
Thinking about the difference between her daughter's boyfriend and Chu Xue's boyfriend, she was in a bad mood: "Xiao Man's boyfriend came once before and then disappeared. I'll send a message to my third sister another day to ask what's going on."

Thinking of something, she said in a low voice, "Although we have severed ties with the second branch of the family, we are still one family. Chu Xue is doing so well now, which has somewhat redeemed the reputation that the first branch of the family has ruined. If Xiao Man's boyfriend has any problems, I think it would be better to let Xiao Man wait a little longer. If she can find a suitable one nearby, it would be best for her to marry into our family. That way, we won't have to travel so far when we miss our daughter."

Upon hearing this, Liu Shanling replied, "Alright, I didn't want my daughter to marry so far away anyway."

The couple had already made up their bedding, but their son still hadn't returned.

Liu Shanling slipped on her shoes and went out of the house. A moment later, she brought her youngest son back in: "What time is it? You won't sleep and you won't let your older sister sleep either. You really have no sense at all. Can't you see that your older sister is dozing off?"

I was about to argue back, but my mom silenced me with a glare.

When the first snow fell into the village, it was already dark.

Seeing that some houses had already turned off their lights, I remembered that a while ago the power company came to the village and said they were going to install electricity meters in every household. I wonder if they have installed them yet.
I found a relatively secluded spot, took out the things I had prepared from my spatial storage, and was about to carry them home when I heard someone coming this way.

Looking up, he realized it was Liu's father: "Father, what brings you here?"

Upon hearing his daughter's voice, Liu's father quickened his pace: "I forgot to ask you that day whether you were coming back early or with Yancheng and the others. I just wanted to check on you at the village entrance."

Seeing the things on the ground: "Why are there so many things?"

Chu Xue smiled and said, "You've come at the perfect time. I was just wondering how to carry it back."

"How did you manage to carry all of these back?"

“I contacted the aunt who gave me a ride back from the meat processing plant last time, and learned that they have a truck going to the North Suburb Farm to pick up live pigs today, but it might be a little later than that day, so I don’t have to ask the section chief for leave to leave early.”

As they walked, carrying their things, they asked, "Did you tell Yancheng about going to work in the city?" Chuxue was a little embarrassed and replied, "No."

Mr. Liu asked with a surprised look, "You haven't been in contact during this time?"

Chu Xue gave a soft "hmm": "He didn't come to the village, did he?"

Father Liu shook his head: "No."

Chu Xue coughed lightly: "Let's not talk about my job in the city tomorrow."

Mr. Liu was somewhat puzzled: "This is a good thing, why didn't you mention it?"

Chu Xue thought for a moment: "His grandfather was supposed to come on the day of the marriage proposal, but he didn't come because his cough flared up and he was afraid of causing trouble for everyone."

Yancheng told me that day that his father would definitely come to the engagement unless there were special circumstances, and many other family members would also likely attend. I wanted to see their attitude so I could be on the right track.

Mr. Liu hadn't expected his daughter to think so much: "Alright, then we won't say anything. You can tell Yancheng about it privately later."

Feeling the weight of the bag in my hand: "What's in this bag? It's quite heavy."

Chu Xue said somewhat guiltily, "On our way back, we happened to see some teenagers exchanging fish they caught at the Ming Tombs Reservoir for other things on the roadside. I thought there would be a lot of people coming tomorrow, so I exchanged a few more with them."

In reality, they were fish taken from the freshwater in the space.
