Chapter 218 What happened over there?
After parting with the village electrician Liu Xinmin at the door of the old house, the father and daughter heard some noises of banging and crashing coming from the main room before they even entered the house.
The father and daughter looked at each other and quickly walked into the house.
Mother Liu saw them coming in and said, "You're back just in time."
He turned to the little girl and shouted, "Chunxiao, serve the soup."
Chunxiao responded and put the washbasin in her hand on the table in front of her father: "Dad, wash your hands first, I'll go serve the meal."
Father Liu listened to the noise from the main room and looked at Mother Liu: "What happened over there?"
Mother Liu snorted: "What else can it be? Dongzi is making trouble with the family."
Father Liu was puzzled: "Why is he making such a fuss? If it weren't for him, our family wouldn't be in this state now."
Mother Liu brought over the steamed buns made of two pieces of flour: "He wants the eldest brother and his wife to take him to the city hospital."
After hearing this, Father Liu remained silent, thinking: Qiangzi had borrowed money from the village to save the eldest couple before, and the money has not been repaid yet. He also had a falling out with the Ge family and they are no longer on good terms with each other, so it is impossible for him to help them. Even if the eldest couple wanted to take him with them, they would be powerless, not to mention that the eldest couple might not be in the mood to do so now.
He didn't get a penny when the third branch divided the family property, and he had no power to help them. As for his own family, not to mention that the second daughter is the head of the family now, even if he had the final say, he could not lend money to someone who wanted to harm his daughter, not to mention that he had no money.
When the food was served, Liu's mother spoke first: "There's nothing to do at the new house. I'll start work tomorrow. Otherwise, we'll all be starving by the end of the year."
Seeing Chuxue was about to speak, she interrupted and said, "As for the mattress and clothes, I'll make them tonight. I've also talked to your Aunt Cuihong. She'll come here to help me. It's urgent."
Chu Xue turned to look at Father Liu and said, "Dad, go to the Yu family later and ask Old Yu to choose a date."
Father Liu drank the vegetable soup in the bowl and said, "Well, I'll go over there tomorrow."
After he finished speaking, he looked up at Chuxue and said, "In half a month, you will have your graduation exam. My leg is not a problem now, and even if your mother goes to work, she can take care of herself. You should go back to school, and don't let it affect your graduation exam."
Chu Xue saw that the three of them were looking at her, so she nodded and said, "Then I will go back to school next Monday."
After finishing the meal, everyone cleaned up and prepared to go back to the house to rest.
Chuxue released her mental power and looked outside, and saw that the two men had moved from behind Li's toilet to the side of Li's firewood chopping board. They must have been unable to bear the smell of the toilet, and thought that now that it was dark, no one would go to get firewood at this time, so they moved to another place.
Chu Xue closed the window and entered the space. Today, she came across a Chinese medicine clinic in Beijing City. She wanted to go in and buy some Chinese medicine seeds, but unfortunately, they said that the roof of the small warehouse where the seeds were stored was leaking, and all the seeds were soaked. Now there are no seeds for sale in the store.
However, an old doctor in the store felt pity for her disappointed expression and took out a small bag of seeds from the counter and gave it to her, saying that he would collect them when he saw them while sorting medicinal herbs, and the seeds in the paper bag were quite mixed, so she could take them if she didn't mind.
Naturally, she wouldn't mind, but she didn't take it for nothing. She used the backpack as a cover and took out a handful of fruit candies that were previously in the space and gave them to the old doctor, as an exchange.
I opened the paper bag and sorted them out. There were about a dozen kinds, but the quantity of seeds of each kind was not large.
Yuanzi wishes everyone a happy New Year, and wishes everyone good luck, success, good fortune and happiness in the Year of the Snake.
