Chapter 1805: Xiao Mu's Hand Trembled as She Reached for the Employment Application Form

~4 min read 687 words

Fu Yan Cheng moved with brisk efficiency, quickly carrying the items to the car.

Liu Chuxue naturally took Fu Yan Cheng's words to heart, thinking that when he returned to his unit, she would prepare more food for him to take along.

After telling Auntie Wei, the two headed toward Xiao's home.

Only today the sky was somewhat overcast, and Liu Chuxue spoke up: "It looks like it's going to snow."

Fu Yan Cheng gave a soft "Mm": "It's possible."

After speaking, he suddenly asked: "Chuxue, with such a huge project, do you feel any regret?"

Liu Chuxue knew what he was thinking: "Enough, stop testing me. With such a huge investment, I never expected to have a share anyway. Actually, there are gains; besides the two spots, the unit is also involved. If the unit does well, you soldiers do well; if you do well, naturally I do well too."

Fu Yan Cheng felt a pang in his heart: "Wife, thank you."

Seeing him like this, Liu Chuxue couldn't help but joke: "Later, have the unit issue me a certificate as a model supporter of the army."

Only she was joking, yet Fu Yan Cheng actually took it to heart: "Okay."

Liu Chuxue didn't take it seriously; the two chatted happily, trading words back and forth.

When they arrived at Xiao's home, light snow began to fall in the sky. Carrying the items inside, they saw Du Juan, who was already showing: "Du Juan, why are you here today?"

Du Juan hadn't seen Liu Chuxue in a long while and was a bit excited: "I have no class today, so I thought I'd come see Auntie. Cousin, do you have no class today either?"

Liu Chuxue smiled: "Your brother-in-law's younger cousin is getting married tomorrow. I took leave today to come say a few things; I'll have to leave soon to go help over there."

Xiao Mu heard the commotion and came out of the kitchen. Seeing the items the couple carried: "Why so much?"

Liu Chuxue smiled: "It's all things Shi Tou loves. I probably won't be back until school breaks, but I prepared extra. Since Du Juan is here, when she leaves, you can give her some."

Du Juan wanted to be polite with her cousin, but seeing the food, her mouth watered: "Aunt, this time I won't be polite. Seeing these things, I'm so craving them my mouth is watering. Just give me a little bit to satisfy my craving."

Xiao Mu truly treated Du Juan well; even if Liu Chuxue hadn't said anything, she would have given her some: "Alright, since your cousin has spoken, how could I disagree? When you leave, Aunt will pack you a lot more."

As they chatted, they entered the house. After putting the items down, Liu Chuxue finally spoke: "Mom, I came today because there's something I want to tell you."

Xiao Mu poured two cups of sugary water for them: "Drink some water to warm up."

After handing them over, she finally asked: "What is it?"

Liu Chuxue took out an employment application form and handed it over: "Now that Shi Tou is older, there happens to be an opportunity, so I found you a job. What do you think?"

Not only was Xiao Mu shocked, but Du Juan was also so startled she quickly looked at the form: "Paper Mill No. 11?"

Liu Chuxue nodded: "Yes. They are launching a new project there. Most importantly, it's not far from home, and once you enter the factory, the work won't be too tiring."

Xiao Mu naturally wanted to, but feared she might not be capable: "Can I do it?"

Liu Chuxue naturally knew what she was worried about: "It's fine. Later, Fu Yan Cheng will give them a heads-up to arrange a light-duty job for you."

Xiao Mu's hand, reaching out to take the employment application form, trembled slightly: "Can I really do it?"

Fu Yan Cheng spoke up then: "There will be pre-job training after entering the factory; it's all the simplest operations. With your dexterity, Mom, there's no reason you can't do it."
