Chapter 443 Gift
Xia Qiu came out after cleaning up, and Liu's mother had also prepared the meal: "I made some porridge, and used the leftover oil from frying food at noon to bake a few pancakes, you can try them."
Xia Qiu was really hungry at this moment: "Mom, I always feel hungry before mealtime recently."
When Liu's mother heard this, she laughed and said, "That's normal. After all, you are eating for two now. How about you try this cake? If you like it, I will bring some back for you. It will be just right to fill your stomach when you are hungry at night."
Xia Qiu was a little embarrassed: "No, I'm eating and taking things, what kind of look would that make me look like?"
As she spoke, she looked around the yard and asked, "Mom, where's my dad?"
Mother Liu handed her a bowl of porridge and said, "I went to the breeding farm to borrow a mule cart."
After that, he called his son-in-law and said, "Shaofeng, don't clean up, come and have dinner, your father should be back soon."
Qiu Shaofeng was not polite to his mother-in-law: "I'm here."
Just when he sat down, he asked, "Mom, where are Chuxue and Chunxiao?"
While busy with her work, Mother Liu replied, "I asked them to go to your Uncle Liangzi's house to deliver some things. I asked his brother-in-law to save the pork for today's cooking."
Xia Qiu thought of something and said, "Mom, we're getting married after the first snow of the year. You have to be careful with the big things at home. There are also many people in the village who might be planning to do this. You must not be soft-hearted. Once you open your mouth, anyone will come and ask for it."
Qiu Shaofeng also said: "Yes, that is Chuxue's betrothal gift. You also told the Fu family that you will take it back when the time comes."
Mother Liu understood what they meant and said seriously, "Don't worry, such a valuable thing will be useless even if someone comes."
The two sisters who went to deliver something met Liu Zhiyuan at the door of the branch secretary's house.
Liu Zhiyuan congratulated Chuxue and said, "Chuxue, I have something for you."
Chu Xue looked puzzled: "Give it to me?"
Liu Zhiyuan nodded and said, "I specifically pestered my uncle to help me make it, but I don't know if you like it?"
Chuxue glanced at Chunxiao and said, "Go home and tell mom first. I'll be back soon."
Chun Xiao nodded: "Okay, I'll go back first."
Chu Xue followed Liu Zhiyuan into the house and saw her take out a small box from her cabinet: "Take a look and see if you like it."
Chuxue understood at a glance that this was the most popular dressing box nowadays. After opening it, she found a mirror inside: "Jiyuan, this thing is too expensive, and you have another one in your cabinet, so this should be a pair."
This should have been made by Liu Zhiyuan's uncle. How could I take away someone else's love?
Liu Zhiyuan hurriedly explained, "I'm telling the truth. Ever since your boyfriend's family proposed marriage, I've been thinking about what gift to give you when you get married. I happened to go to my grandmother's house a while ago and saw my uncle making dressing boxes for someone, so I asked her to make two for me, one for you and one for me."
At this time, Liu Zhiyuan's mother Jiang Zhenzhi walked in and said, "You two have been close since childhood. This is a gift from Zhiyuan. Keep it."
Now that it had come to this, she couldn't say no. "This dressing box is so carefully crafted and polished. I'll take it. Please say thank you to Uncle Jiang for me."
Liu Zhiyuan watched Chuxue leave with a smile on her face: "Okay, I'll tell my uncle when I see him later."
After coming out of the Party Secretary's house, Chu Xue walked home holding her dressing box. When she passed by an old collapsed house, she heard someone talking inside.
At first she didn't take it seriously, thinking it was just someone's kid playing there. But when she got closer she heard someone mention her name and she stopped.
