Chapter 94 Love
It seemed like no one called her on this day in her previous life.
Her rebirth in this life has led to some changes.
Did someone place an order? That doesn't seem right.
If it is an order, the caller will give their name.
About ten minutes later, the phone in the village office rang again and Chu Xuan answered it.
A deep male voice came from the phone, "Hello, comrade! I'm looking for Chu Xuan."
Chu Xuan was very sure that this was the first time she had heard this voice in her two lifetimes combined, and she did not recognize the man on the other end of the phone.
"Hello! I'm Chu Xuan. May I ask who you are? What can I do for you?"
The person on the other end of the line responded, "I'm Wu Bingcheng, your mother Tian Xiaoyun's current husband. Your mother just received your letter. She's currently unable to write a reply and can only use sign language. She can't make any sound either. She asked me to tell you that she'll be back to see you and Xiaofeng as soon as she recovers."
In her previous life, Chu Xuan never wrote a letter to her mother, so she never received a call from Wu Bingcheng.
Chu Xuan had a guess in her mind, "Did my mom have surgery on her eyes and throat? I just learned yesterday that my mom left me and my younger brother because she was seriously ill."
"Yes. The operation was a success."
"Uncle Wu, please tell me everything about my mother. Did you just gather enough money for the surgery? Is that why you've delayed it until now? Where is my mother hospitalized? I want to visit her. Also, I earn a few thousand yuan and can help pay for my mother's medicine..."
Chu Xuan never thought about her biological mother in her previous life, and she wanted to make it up to her in this life.
"Your mother and I have money. We didn't just have the surgery now; we had it done once two years ago. We'll discuss the details after you and your daughter meet. Your mother and I are currently abroad, and the procedures for going abroad are difficult. You can just wait at home. We'll be back in three months at the latest. It's difficult for you to contact us, but I have a way to reach you. I'll call you every once in a while. I have something else to do here, so I'll hang up first!"
Before Chu Xuan could respond, the other party hung up the phone.
Chu Xuan didn't expect that her mother had been fighting illness in recent years.
She will have to work harder to earn money in the future and help her mother share some of the medical expenses.
I'd better not tell my younger brother for now so that he doesn't worry.
When she returned home, her younger brother had already cooked hand-rolled noodles with ham and vegetables.
They had a delicious meal.
After dinner, Chu Xuan was about to clean up the dishes when Liu Dapeng's voice came from outside the door.
"Is Chu Xuan home? I'm coming over to carry the basket."
Chu Feng took the dishes from Chu Xuan's hand and said, "Sister, go out and take a look! I'll clean up."
Chu Xuan nodded, walked out of the kitchen, and saw two baskets on the ground at the gate, each filled with half a basket of new peanuts covered in mud.
Liu Dapeng stood outside the courtyard gate, feeling a little embarrassed. "My uncle's family planted a lot of peanuts and gave them to my family. I'll give them to you and Xiaofeng to try."
After saying that, he ran away without waiting for Chu Xuan to say anything.
Chu Xuan smiled helplessly. Liu Dapeng felt more and more embarrassed to talk to her.
She loves boiled peanuts and plans to boil half of them tomorrow morning and dry the remaining half to save for frying peanuts later.
I didn't know that Liu Dapeng met Mu Chenze on his way back.
Mu Chenze stopped him and said bluntly, "Liu Dapeng, it was you who eavesdropped outside Chu Xuan's house that night, right?"
Liu Dapeng was about to deny it when Mu Chenze said, "If you're a man, don't lie!"
Liu Dapeng had to be a man, so he had to admit it. "Yes, it was me. I won't hang around outside her house anymore. I heard she doesn't like me. I can swear I will never bother her again."
Mu Chenze suddenly realized that the sermons he had prepared in advance were useless.
Liu Dapeng just gave up pursuing Chu Xuan?
It seems that it is not true love!
"Chu Xuan and I are very good friends. If I find out you're hiding outside her house and eavesdropping again, don't blame me for being ruthless!"
He waved his fist at Liu Dapeng.
Liu Dapeng hung his head. "I understand. Can I go now?"
Mu Chenze made way and said, "Let's go!"
Liu Dapeng walked a distance away and suddenly turned back to look at him. "When I can make as much money as you do, I will pursue her! Pursuing and pursuing are two different things."
Mu Chenze then realized that he had not given up, "Even if you can make a lot of money, Chu Xuan will not marry you!"
"Why?"
"Because Chu Xuan doesn't plan to get married in this life."
Liu Dapeng clenched his fists, his eyes filled with determination. "As long as she doesn't marry, I'll be single. As long as she never marries, I'll be single forever!"
After saying that, he left without looking back.
Mu Chenze was surprised. Liu Dapeng was a romantic? Are there really men who like fat girls?
Let him be! As long as he doesn't disturb Chu Xuan's life.
However, he didn't plan to tell Chu Xuan about this.
The next morning, Hua Daling ran to Chu Xuan's house.
"Xiao Xuan, I have something to tell you. Chu Zhi and Pan Xiaoli called off their engagement. 1,800 of the 2,000 yuan betrothal gift was returned, and the remaining 200 yuan was said to be compensation for Pan Xiaoli's reputation. I heard that Pan Xiaoli is infertile and not even a virgin..."
Chu Xuan had just finished cooking peanuts and placed a plate of them in Hua Daling's hands. "Aunt Hua, these are new peanuts this year. Try them now. Be careful of the heat. I know what you're talking about. Pan Xiaoli came to me and asked if there was anything the Chu Zhi family couldn't disclose. If she did, she'd like to use that as an excuse to avoid returning the betrothal gift."
Hua Daling held the plate with both hands, her nose feeling sore. Peanuts were precious, so she always kept them for oil extraction or oil exchange, and then cooked them and ate them directly. This was the second time she had eaten them. The first time was also at Chu Xuan's house. That time they were not in the shell, but this time they were in the shell.
"Xiao Xuan, thank you! I really ate it!"
“Eat!”
After getting a positive answer, Hua Daling peeled the peanut skin reverently, afraid that it would fall off. She carefully took out the peanuts inside, put them in her mouth, and tasted them slowly.
"It tastes better when cooked in the shell! So delicious!"
I peeled three and felt embarrassed to eat any more.
Chu Xuan also poured a plate for herself and her younger brother, "Eat as much as you can, I cooked five or six pounds. Aunt Hua, just eat it, there's more in the pot. I'll bring a plate back later."
Aunt Hua smiled and waved her hands repeatedly, "You can't eat and take at the same time. Let me continue telling you about Chu Zhi's family. Just because the Pan family withheld 200 yuan, Feng Chunhua cursed at her door for over an hour. It was really disgusting. If she had the guts, why didn't she go to the Pan family and curse? She just kept bullying people."
Chu Xuan said while eating peanuts, "If she dares to go to the Pan family and curse, they will beat her mouth to pieces."
Hua Daling added, "By the way, she's also spreading rumors that it was you who reminded Chu Zhi to take Pan Xiaoli to the hospital for a checkup. You'd better be prepared, in case the Pan family comes knocking on your door..."
"I've already explained this to Pan Xiaoli. I told her that Feng Chunhua had a grudge against me and was deliberately throwing mud at me. She expressed her understanding and didn't argue with me."
"That's good. I just came here to tell you something, nothing else. I'm leaving now!"
Hua Daling stood up to leave, but Chu Xuan forced a plate of boiled peanuts into her mouth.
Hua Daling was stubborn and accepted it.
After walking a distance, he suddenly remembered something and slapped his head, "Look at my memory."
Return to Chu Xuan's home.
She deliberately lowered her voice, "Xiao Xuan, I forgot to tell you that Feng Chunhua is going to Hai City next month. I didn't hear the specific date, but I heard she asked Chu Zhi and Chu Dashan to keep it a secret and not tell anyone."
