Chapter 155: Response
The secretary’s wife couldn't sit still when she heard their conversation: "Listen to that, he gets excited as soon as he hears about wine."
She then turned to look at Chuxue: "Snow girl, your Uncle Funian’s doctor friend said he shouldn't drink as much as before. You younger generation shouldn't indulge him anymore."
Chuxue heard this: "If that’s really the case, then health is important. I really shouldn't buy wine for Secretary Grandpa. I’ll make some delicious food as a thank-you gift. Even if we are one family, I can't let Secretary Grandpa work for nothing."
The secretary’s wife smiled: "We are all one family; it’s only right for him to help."
They were being polite, but she couldn't take it for real. Even brothers settle accounts clearly, let alone being more than five generations removed: "Secretary Grandpa has worried a lot for my family these days, so it’s only right for me to show some respect."
The secretary heard this: "Look, she’s still in school, but Chuxue girl’s words make people feel comfortable."
The secretary’s wife laughed: "You’re already at that age, why are you still like a child? Aren't you afraid of Snow girl laughing at you?"
The secretary put down the work in his hands: "I am her Third Grandpa; she won't laugh at me."
For a time, everyone in the courtyard laughed.
The secretary thought of something: "Chuxue, where are you planning to do the mixing?"
Chuxue was waiting for this sentence: "Secretary Grandpa, isn't there an empty space to the right of the homestead? And I remember Uncle Lichun’s house, which isn't far from mine, did the mixing there. It’s just convenient for us."
The secretary thought about it and agreed: "Fine, then I’ll ask them to help send their coal ash there later."
With the matter settled, Chuxue left and headed to the village entrance.
She deliberately chose that place. First, that place had been used as a mixing ground before, and it could be used directly after a little cleaning. Second, it wasn't far from the new house, making it convenient to transport the mud. The east wing room could even be pulled up to the roof with a rope.
Most importantly, this place was in a high position, just enough to see the back wall of their old house. The main branch couldn't gather enough money for the Ge family, so they were very likely to take a desperate move.
Earlier, the eldest aunt had said that the window of the house where her father and mother lived was broken and not repaired when the third branch lived there. They must have thought that the bonuses they got earlier were also hidden in that room. She was just waiting for them.
When she arrived at the village entrance, Fu Yan Cheng had already driven the car out from the threshing ground: "Sorry, I went to the secretary’s to handle some things, so I’m late."
Fu Yan Cheng smiled as he started the car: "Not late. Let’s go."
After a bumpy ride to the reservoir construction site, those people thought some leaders had arrived. When they stopped the car and got out, several people in charge of the construction site ran over: "Who are you?"
As soon as the question was asked, they saw Chuxue: "Hey, aren't you that..."
Chuxue hurriedly stepped forward: "Yes, it’s me, Liu Shanliang’s daughter."
"How is your father?"
Chuxue bowed to them directly: "My father has been discharged, and the surgery was very successful. He will go to remove the steel pins after half a year of recovery. Thank you for breaking the rules to advance the medical expenses for us before. Thank you."
Several people in charge didn't expect this girl to thank them. It would be a lie to say they weren't moved: "It was something we should have done. Since your father’s leg is fine, we can be at ease."
Chuxue nodded: "I’m here today to settle the medical expenses."
At this time, someone said: "Then let’s go to the office to talk."
Liu Renyi didn't follow in; he guarded the car.
Fu Yan Cheng was worried and followed behind Chuxue.
