Chapter 28: Set off for the city
Although the mother-in-law is easy to talk to, the family hasn't been divided, and she doesn't want to make it difficult for her daughter and son-in-law: "Alright, send us to the car, and you hurry back to the farm. It will be easy to talk when we get to the city. If it really doesn't work, find a porter to help. You can rest assured."
Liu Chuxue also agreed with her mother's idea. After all, when she went to the Qiu family yesterday, that pregnant second sister-in-law of the Qiu family looked difficult to get along with, and she didn't want her sister to be squeezed when she went back: "Alright, listen to Mother on this matter."
They all knew that Liu Laoqi, who kept the door at the health center, had a semi-old bicycle: "Sister, you go borrow the bicycle from Seventh Grandpa, and let brother-in-law push Father over to take the car later."
Xia Qiu responded and ran toward the gatehouse.
After tidying up here, Xia Qiu also borrowed the bicycle. Unexpectedly, this elder of the same clan, Liu Laoqi, also followed.
Seeing Qiu Shaofeng carry the person out, he hurried up to help.
Seeing the person sit down, he took out twenty yuan from his pocket and handed it to Liu Mu: "Shanliang's wife, I'm afraid the expenses for this trip to the city will not be small. A poor family should be rich on the road, keep this money."
Liu Chuxue didn't expect this Seventh Grandpa of the same clan to lend them so much money, and couldn't help but be moved.
Liu Mu looked tangled. Seventh Uncle was right, but how could she be embarrassed to reach out and take the old man's money? Then she heard Liu Laoqi say: "I am still well-off, take it."
Chuxue saw that if they didn't leave, they would miss the car: "Mother, this is Seventh Grandpa's heart, and we really need it now. You take it. When our family recovers, we will be more filial to Seventh Grandpa."
These words hit Liu Laoqi's heart. After all, his son is in the army, and his daughter has married there. Now he is alone at home.
Several people didn't dare to delay and hurried to the intersection from the commune to the city. In another twenty minutes, a public bus to the city would pass by here.
Passing by the high school where Liu Chuxue studied, the Liu couple looked guilty. Now the eldest daughter is married, and the youngest daughter is still small, so they can only let the second daughter accompany them to the city. She is afraid that her homework will be left behind.
Liu Xia Qiu also thought of this point and leaned to her sister's side: "Chuxue, why don't I accompany you? You are about to graduate. If you delay your homework and can't get your diploma, it won't be good."
Liu Chuxue glanced at her brother-in-law who was pushing the bicycle in front: "You know the situation of your in-laws better than I do. If you don't work for a few days, not to mention others, your sister-in-law from the other branch will make a scene."
For the sake of simplicity, Liu Chuxue spoke very directly. Liu Xia Qiu sighed when she thought of her sister-in-law from the other branch: "If I had known, I wouldn't have married over so early."
Liu Mu naturally heard the conversation between the sisters: "What nonsense are you talking about? Just have me and your sister accompany you. Don't worry, just live your own life well."
After saying this, she also sighed in her heart. In the end, she still blamed herself for not giving her husband a son.
When encountering things, boys can still carry them. It is really difficult for a few daughters.
They had just arrived at the intersection for a while when the public bus drove over.
A couple sitting by the car door saw their situation: "You sit here."
Liu Chuxue hurriedly thanked them and settled her parents there: "Sister, brother-in-law, we are leaving. You send the bicycle back to Seventh Grandpa later."
As soon as she finished speaking, the car started.
Liushu Village
Old Woman Liu looked unhappily at the old man sitting on the kang smoking dry tobacco: "Didn't we agree before? Why did you agree to divide the family?"
