Chapter 1576: As for not letting you go, I guess it was probably because of me

~4 min read 752 words

In the time that followed, Liu Chuxue indeed became busy.

After the children fell asleep, besides translating materials from the First Machinery Department, she also had to find time to draw some furniture design plans.

The furniture workshop had signed a contract with Liu Chuxue this time; besides the crib and stroller, they also provided four furniture design plans when the workshop opened, and after that, she must provide at least two design plans every half year.

Besides receiving a design fee of fifty yuan for each design plan, she could also receive ten percent of the net profit.

Originally, the Logistics Department wanted to give her twenty percent of the profit, but Liu Chuxue did not agree.

She did not want to work for free, but she also did not want to take too much.

With her memories of the future, she believed it would not take long for the workshop to open up the situation; as business grew booming later, people would likely become jealous.

She did not intend to profit from the army side; the reason she did this was truly to help everyone.

After all, she had the space and memories of the future; after the Reform and Opening Up, there would be plenty of opportunities.

That day, she received a call from Xiao Mu: "Liu Chuxue, the date for Du Juan's wedding has been set; see if you have time to come back and accompany her to buy her dowry items."

"When was it set?"

"Yesterday, both families' parents met and set the time; Du Juan originally wanted to notify you, but thinking there were triplets to care for and your sister also had to work, she simply didn't notify anyone."

Hearing this explanation, Liu Chuxue felt it was somewhat far-fetched.

For such a big matter, shouldn't they go to give her cousin some presence or something?

But since things were already like this, she said nothing: "Then I will go back the day after tomorrow; Fu Yan Cheng happens to be off that day, so I will let him accompany me back, and he can also help Auntie Wei take care of the triplets."

Having received the confirmation, Xiao Mu hung up the phone, after all, the phone call fee was too expensive.

Liu Chuxue thought for a moment and made a call to her own sister: "Sister, Du Juan's wedding date has been set; do you know about this?"

Hearing Liu Chuxue mention this matter, Xia Qiu was full of anger: "I don't know what Mom was thinking; Du Juan told me the day before to go with her, and I had already requested leave, but Mom simply wouldn't let me go."

Liu Chuxue frowned and asked, "Why wouldn't she let you go?"

Xia Qiu took a deep breath: "She said it was just a meeting between two families, so there was no need for so many people to go, and she also said that having more people would make the other side spend too much."

Actually, hearing this, how could Liu Chuxue not understand; she was likely afraid that if she and Xia Qiu went together, it would not highlight the importance of her role as the aunt, after all, when the two families sat down, Director Jiang, the matchmaker, would likely be present.

Liu Chuxue chuckled lightly: "Mom is still playing mind games with us; she likely knows Director Jiang, the matchmaker, will also go, and since my relationship with Director Jiang is too good, Mom is afraid I will take charge of everything."

As for not letting you go, I guess it was probably because of me; if they let you go without notifying me, they would be afraid I would be unhappy later, so they simply decided neither of us sisters should go."

Hearing Liu Chuxue's analysis, Xia Qiu immediately understood: "Don't say, Mom probably really thought that way."

"Never mind, let her do as she pleases."

"By the way, Mom just called me and asked me to accompany Du Juan to buy her dowry items; I have agreed with her to go back the day after tomorrow; do you have time?"

Xia Qiu didn't even think: "Even if I don't have time, I will make time."

Xiao Mu called her back to accompany her cousin to buy wedding dowry items, and likely had other thoughts.

But that also depends on whether she is willing to cooperate with her.

The two sisters made their plans and then hung up the phone.
