Chapter 921 I don’t know what you are thinking
Someone even tried to sow discord: "Liangzi's family, your family gets along best with the Shanliang family, why didn't this good thing happen to your family?"
Aunt Liangzi is not one to indulge others: "Look at what you said. No matter how good the relationship is, there are still people who are close to the family. Besides, the old branch secretary is looking after the house. Who dares to go there and act recklessly? Even children understand this principle, but you are using it to make a fuss. I don't know what you are thinking?"
The woman looked embarrassed: "I just said it casually, don't take it seriously."
The village was not far from the commune, so it didn't take long to get there.
Chu Xue greeted everyone and then went to the Party Secretary's house with her things. "Mr. Party Secretary, are you home?"
The straw curtains in the main room were opened: "The first snow is back, come in and warm up."
"Uncle Secretary, it's almost Chinese New Year, and my father can't take a leave, so he asked me to come back to see you."
When the branch secretary heard this, his face was full of smiles: "Oh, you are all busy, I know that. I was still worried about how to contact you yesterday. I was thinking of going to the steel mill to find you if all else failed."
"Is there something wrong?"
"That girl Zhiyuan's wedding date has been set, and I wanted you to come back for the wedding."
"When I was at the commune, Aunt Liangzi told me that if something happened and they couldn't come back, I would be there."
Zhiyuan, who was knitting slippers in the side room, rushed out when she heard Chuxue's voice: "Oh, I knew you would come back. My grandfather even said that if things really didn't work out, he would send a message to the steel mill. Look, here you are."
"How is it, are all the things for the wedding ready?"
Zhiyuan pulled Chuxue to go to her room.
Chuxue quickly took out a prepared New Year gift from her cloth bag and said, "Secretary, please take this to the kitchen and have grandma make it for everyone to taste."
As soon as he finished speaking, Zhiyuan pulled him away.
The branch secretary watched them go into the house with a smile, then went to the kitchen with the things in his hand. But when he opened the box, he saw that there was a fish weighing about three pounds, a piece of mutton and a small bag of cheese.
The bag was full of precious things. I quickly held it down, looked around, and thought: What can I give as a return gift?
The two sisters talked for a while in the side room, and then Chuxue prepared to leave.
Liu Zhiyuan looked reluctant: "Why are you leaving right after you came back? Have lunch at my house before you leave."
Chu Xue said, "I'm going back home to visit my family, and I also have to go to my sister's place."
Seeing that Liu Zhiyuan still wanted to speak, he leaned close to her ear and said, "My family and the Fu family are discussing the wedding date tonight, so I can't go back too late."
After hearing this, Liu Zhiyuan slapped Chuxue on the arm and said, "If I didn't keep you, would you still not tell me such a big thing?"
Chu Xue laughed: "I'm just a little embarrassed."
Liu Zhiyuan didn't want to keep anyone here anymore: "Okay, okay, you have to come back early on the third day anyway."
Chu Xue readily agreed: "Don't worry, at worst I can come back in the afternoon of the second day of the New Year, and I won't delay your wedding."
The two of them played around for a while before Chuxue came out: "Secretary, I'm leaving now."
The branch secretary was still preparing things in the warehouse when he heard Chuxue's voice: "Why are you leaving so soon?"
"I'm going home to take a look, and then I'll go over the mountain to see my sister."
"Oh, why are you in such a hurry? It's not too late to have lunch at home before leaving."
"No, I have to go back to the city early this afternoon."
The secretary wanted to keep her, but then he heard his granddaughter say, "Grandpa, she has something else to do this afternoon, so don't delay her."
