Chapter 997 I don’t want them to get used to it
Before dawn, Chuxue was carrying her things and walking home.
Fortunately, she took the things out before reaching the intersection, and saw a person standing at the entrance of the alley from a distance.
After releasing my mental power and looking over, I found that it was my father.
Seeing the white frost on her eyebrows, she knew she had been standing there for a while. She pretended to be shocked and asked, "Dad, why are you here?"
Father Xiao reached out and took the sack from her hand, saying with a guilty look on his face, "It's all because of Dad's uselessness. Everything at home depends on you. Don't worry, I'll go out more often when I'm free. When I'm familiar with Beijing, I'll go there if anything happens."
Chu Xue naturally understood what he meant. "I didn't go to the black market. I got it directly from someone I knew before. It's not as dangerous as you think. But I brought the things back. You have to pay for it."
After hearing this, Father Xiao quickly said, "Of course, it should be paid by the family."
When the father and daughter arrived home, Xiao's mother had just put the steamed buns made of two-grain flour into the pot: "Are you back?"
After saying that, he stepped forward and patted Chuxue's arm: "How can you be so brave? What if something happens to us?"
Chu Xue naturally saw the complexities in her expression and quickly understood what she was thinking, but she didn't explain: "I'm just thinking about my family. I can't let others laugh at my sister and make her lose face in her husband's family."
After all, when he found out that his eldest daughter was born, he was just excited but did not take any action.
The three of them did not return to the living room, but went into the kitchen.
Mother Xiao pointed to the things on the table and said, "I gave your sister some things. There are two or three pounds of white flour, the beef jerky you brought back a while ago, and some eggs that your grandfather sent before the New Year. I gave her fifteen of them."
After saying that, he stared at the sack that Father Xiao had placed on the ground: "What do you have in here?"
Chu Xue looked at Father Xiao and said, "Dad, go get a backpack so that we can load the things right away."
Father Xiao walked out quickly and returned with the backpack in a short while.
Chu Xue took out everything one by one. Not only Xiao's mother, but also Xiao's father stared at her with wide eyes: "Wow, so many good things."
Seeing Chuxue also prepared white flour, Xiao's mother said, "You also prepared white flour, why don't you just take the ones at home?"
Chu Xue didn't object. He wasn't going to pay for all this himself anyway, so as to avoid letting them get used to it. "All this cost a total of twenty-two dollars and sixty cents."
Xiao's mother was obviously stunned for a moment.
Then she didn't hear her husband's words: "Go get money for Chuxue. You can't let the child do both the work and the money."
Mother Xiao opened her mouth and was about to say something, but Father Xiao's face turned cold: "This is what we as parents should prepare for."
Mother Xiao coughed lightly to cover up her loss of composure: "Okay, I'll get it right away."
She originally thought that Chuxue didn't give all of her salary to her family, and only gave her ten yuan a month for living expenses. She had money on her hands, and she wouldn't ask for this money from her family. Unexpectedly, her husband spoke first.
Although she was a little unhappy, she knew that what her man said made sense.
He turned around and went back into the house to get the money out, exactly twenty-two dollars and sixty cents.
Chuxue took it generously and put the things into the backpack one by one: "Dad, do you have a bigger basket at home? Do you still have the sawdust you used to do carpentry work? I'll use it when I pour the eggs into the basket later."
Father Xiao went to the utility room and brought back some urea: "It's here. I was worried that I'd run out of urea when I needed it, so I left some at home."
Chu Xue gave him a thumbs up and said with a smile, "Brilliant."
