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

Chapter 428 Father Liu Loses His Temper

The next day, before dawn, Mr. and Mrs. Liu got up.

Hearing the noise, Chu Xue glanced at the sky outside the window, thinking that someone designated by the Fu family would definitely be coming today.

He didn't lie down anymore, changed into his usual work clothes, and opened the door.

As soon as Liu's mother came out of the kitchen, she saw her outfit and asked, "Xue, why are you dressed like this?"

Chu Xue replied as she walked toward the storage room: "The Fu family won't arrive until after 10 o'clock at the earliest. I rarely come back, so I'm going to take a stroll in the mountains. I'll definitely be back before 9 o'clock."

Liu's mother wanted to stop them, but then she thought that her daughter was right. Once they got engaged, she would have to go back to work in the city, and she didn't know when she would be able to come back again.

Thinking that she had often gone into the mountains before, and with her strength, safety shouldn't be a problem: "Then come back early, and don't go deep into the mountains."

Chu Xue agreed and went out.

Chunxiao chased after her, saying, "Second sister, I want to go too."

The first snow didn't stop: "Next time, it's too rushed today, and it's inconvenient to bring you along."

Chunxiao was so angry after being rejected that she stomped her feet.

For some reason, Chuxue couldn't bring herself to like Chunxiao, her younger sister. She felt that the child was somewhat wicked. The only reason she still paid attention to her was because of the plot in the book. Chunxiao was indeed implicated by the original owner's reputation and was eventually schemed against by the first wife and beaten to death by the abusive husband.

Thinking of that abusive man, even though it was just a plot in a book, Chu Xue made a decision in her heart: she would go and visit him as soon as she got back, at least to vent her anger and frustration.

After she went to work in the city, the food at home would definitely not be as good as before. She thought she would bring back a few more pheasants and rabbits today. After accounting for the food for today's feast, she could also save some for her parents to nourish their bodies. Before, when she treated her father's leg in the city, she had someone take their pulse. The old doctor said that the two of them were severely depleted, but had no other ailments.

Once they recover their health, they should be able to have another child at their current age without any problems.

Although they won't have children, they will still be able to support each other in their old age. But having a son has always been a source of worry for them. Since they have taken over someone else's daughter's body, they should try their best to make them get what they want. All they can do is to make sure their bodies are replenished as soon as possible.

Not long after the first snow, Liu's father returned with a mule cart borrowed from the animal feeder: "Lamei, bring out an old quilt from before. I'll put it on the cart so that Xiaqiu won't be uncomfortable."

Mother Liu responded, got up and went back into the house, and came out a moment later carrying him: "Are you leaving now?"

Liu's father glanced at the sky, which was beginning to lighten, and said, "Yes, let's leave now, so we don't end up going the wrong way."

When Chunxiao heard that her father was going to pick up her older sister, she said, "Dad, I'll go with you."

Father Liu put the quilt on the car: "You don't need to go. Help your mother pick and wash vegetables in the private plot later. We can't be careless today."

Hearing that it wasn't like they weren't allowed to go, Chunxiao got even angrier: "You guys are really bullying me! Second Sister went up the mountain, and Eldest Sister still had to make you go pick her up. Why do I have to stay and help with the work?"

Her words stunned the Liu couple, who then realized that their little girl was becoming increasingly unruly.

Father Liu's face darkened, and even he, who was usually good-natured, lost his temper this time: "Ever since the family split up, your second sister has never come up the mountain empty-handed. Don't you know what day it is today and why she came up the mountain?"

If you're not happy about it, then go ahead and do it.

And what about your eldest sister? Don't you know her situation? After you get married, do you expect your family to treat you like water spilled from a cup, never to want anything from you again?
