Chapter 317: Chasing the Wind, Do You Want to Get Beaten?
When the first snow arrived home, it was already past lunch time.
Mother Liu saw her come in and asked: "Have you eaten?"
Chuxue put down the backpack and said, "Is there anything else to eat? Hurry up and get me some."
Mother Liu misunderstood her words and asked worriedly, "Is your sister okay?"
Chu Xue waved her hand: "My sister is fine. Her brother-in-law is getting married the day after tomorrow. Let's go there early."
"So what are you doing?"
Chu Xue then told him what happened on the way back.
After hearing this, Liu's mother asked, "You mean, the child you saved is the same child you saved in the city hospital before?"
Chu Xue went into the house and poured herself a bowl of water: "Yes, it's him."
Mother Liu's face flashed with sympathy: "This child has been through so many misfortunes. What happened this time? Is he implicated by his family again?"
Chu Xue shook her head: "I don't know. It's not easy for me to ask about this."
Mother Liu thought about it and said, "I made braised noodles for lunch. Luckily I brought you a portion. Since you haven't come back yet at this time, I thought you ate at your sister's."
"Food is so precious now, not to mention that they haven't separated yet. I don't want to cause trouble for my sister."
At this point, she told the story of what happened in the Qiu family. Father Liu just came back from outside. After hearing her words, he said thoughtfully, "I heard from Siqiao in the village that a market in the city is going to be demolished and rebuilt. I will go with him to see if I can pick up some scrap metal."
Chu Xue was a little confused for a moment, thinking: What is going on? We were clearly talking about my eldest sister, so why did my father go straight to picking up scrap metal?
I didn't understand, so I asked, "What are you doing with the scrap metal?"
Father Liu sat on the doorstep of the main house and said, "Save it up. When you all get married, when your husband's family splits up, we will have to prepare a stove for you to split up."
Chuxue now remembered that when the fourth grandmother's family who lived in front of the old house separated, the families of several daughters-in-law did send pots, pans, and utensils over, but the conditions of each family were different, and the number of things sent was different. It seems that it is a custom for the daughter's family to send pots, pans, and utensils when the daughter separates.
After hearing this, Chu Xue went straight into the kitchen and scooped out a bowl of braised noodles: "It smells delicious."
Mother Liu laughed and said, "The beans are harvested now. If you like them, I will make them for you in a few days."
Chu Xue smiled and nodded: "I like to save the beans from the braised noodles and eat them together."
After saying that, he laughed.
She had just taken a few bites when she heard Chunxiao's voice: "Zhuifeng, stop right there."
As soon as she finished speaking, Zhuifeng rushed in with a rabbit in his mouth.
After entering the yard, he put the rabbit directly at the kitchen door, with its tail wagging happily, and an expression that looked like it was asking for praise.
It made everyone laugh.
Chunxiao was holding a stick in his hand and running out of breath: "Zhuifeng, do you want to be beaten?"
Father Liu looked at his little daughter and asked, "What's wrong? Zhuifeng caught rabbits for you to eat. Why are you so angry?"
Chun Xiao put her hands on her waist and said, "I told you to give this rabbit to Peng Kangli, but this guy just ignored me and ran away with the rabbit in his mouth. He ignored me no matter how I called him from behind."
Chu Xue heard this and stopped smiling: "Why would you give away the rabbit you caught with the wind?"
Chun Xiao said as if it was a matter of course: "I told them to go out. My wind chaser can catch wild animals."
Chu Xue heard that there must be something else going on: "And then?"
