Chapter 1314 Comradeship
As soon as she came down the slope, she saw Fu Yancheng waiting there: "Why did you come here?"
Fu Yancheng quickly stepped forward: "I didn't even see you for a second before you ran over here. What use is a husband like me then?"
Knowing that Fu Yancheng would definitely be going to the cowshed today, she didn't want him to be in any danger. If someone saw him carrying something there, it would be too troublesome. But she was different; after all, she had a cheat code that allowed her to avoid danger.
Chu Xue pulled him to the other side: "We still have to go back to the city this afternoon. Since everyone is resting at home, you can go and say what you need to say right away."
She figured that as long as she wasn't holding anything in her hands, she wouldn't be afraid even if someone saw her.
Fu Yancheng helped the person to a shady spot: "Sit here and wait for me, I'll be back soon."
After Chu Xue nodded, he quickly walked towards the cowshed.
During this period, Chu Xue did not return to the village. The Kang family's things were all delivered to them at night by reliable people entrusted by Kong Yizhang. Moreover, Fu Yancheng also knew that someone had just delivered things a while ago, so he did not prepare anything for this trip.
Chu Xue thought he wouldn't be back for a while, but Fu Yancheng arrived shortly after: "Why so fast?"
Fu Yancheng helped the person up, saying, "I was worried about leaving you here alone."
When the two entered the courtyard together, the banquet was almost over.
As soon as the village chief saw him come in, he stood up. His eagerness was almost comical, but when you thought about how they were also doing it all for the village, you couldn't help but feel a little respect for them.
Chu Xue patted Fu Yancheng: "Alright, don't worry about me. Don't keep the village chief waiting."
Regardless of what Chu Xue said, Fu Yancheng still escorted her to a shady spot before feeling at ease: "You'll catch a chill here. If there's any work to do, I'll come back and do it later. Don't get involved."
He spoke softly, but everyone who had been paying attention to them heard him.
As soon as he left with the village chief, the Party Secretary called out to the women who had come to the feast: "The men of Chuxue's family have done so much for our village, we must repay them properly."
The women responded with laughter, "Yes, there's not much work to be done, so there's no need for him to come back and do it."
He then made his move.
Xia Qiu and Chu Xue wanted to help, but everyone stopped them: "One of you has to take care of the child, and the other is pregnant. How can we let you do it? There are so many of us, we can finish it in no time."
After Fu Yancheng and the village chief arrived at the village committee, Fu Yancheng first called Kong Yizhang and asked him to check the phone number of a comrade-in-arms in Jinshi. Luckily, when he called, the person was in the office.
After exchanging a few pleasantries, he mentioned his desire to buy an oil press: "I actually have some connections in this matter. I have a childhood friend who works at a grain machinery factory, but whether it will work out or not, I'll have to ask him first. Wait here, I'll call him now and call you back later."
Fu Yancheng quickly recited the village's phone number: "Okay, I'll wait here. Thanks, brother."
A cheerful voice came from the other end of the phone: "There's no need for such formalities between us. If you hadn't pushed me back then, I'd probably be overgrown with weeds by now. Just wait."
Not long after the other end hung up, the phone rang again.
The village chief gestured for Fu Yancheng to take the call, then pricked up his ears, eager to hear what the other end of the line would say.
After Fu Yancheng answered the phone, he asked, "How did it go? What did they say?"
