Chapter 508: Delivering Festival Gifts

Duan Ruirui did not hide anything; she told them the whole story: "I don't know how to face my father right now. As for my eldest and second brothers, I hold no grudge against them; after all, they have their own small families now, and I can understand."

After speaking, she took a deep breath and said, "I have made up my mind. Anyway, I am not young anymore; if I find a suitable match, I will marry."

This was their family's private matter; they could not say much, so they just acted as listeners.

However, they all said that if they found a suitable candidate, they would introduce him to her.

After the meal, the three followed her directly to the logistics department. After signing the papers, they collected the benefits Ning Xiaoyu had selected for them in advance.

Ji Kunlan looked at Liu Chuxue: "How did you arrange it?"

After all, the factory had not closed for the holiday, and since she was already engaged, she might either take leave to go home or spend the festival at her future in-laws' house.

After thinking for a moment, Liu Chuxue said: "This afternoon, Sister Hong and I are going to the bank. After finishing the business, I will stop by the sugar factory on the way to deliver some of the distributed benefits to my fiancé's mother, and tomorrow afternoon I will take leave to go home."

Ji Kunlan nodded, thinking Liu Chuxue's plan was quite good.

Back in the dormitory, she set aside a portion of the sea fish, crabs, and kelp she had received. She did not keep any of the distributed fruit, planning to give it all to the Fu family, thinking she could simply take fruit from her space when she went home.

When she arrived at the office in the afternoon, she carried the items over.

When she arrived, no one was in the office except Wan Xiaohui: "Where are they?"

Wan Xiaohui was busy with her work: "They went to the logistics department to collect the benefits."

Liu Chuxue put the items away and then organized the documents she needed to bring to the bank in the afternoon.

Not long after, she heard voices coming from the hallway: "The procurement department finally did something good this year; these sea fish, crabs, and mantis shrimps are really excellent and very presentable."

Just as Liu Chuxue finished packing the items, Sister Hong and the others entered the room.

Section Chief Li was in a good mood: "This afternoon, once everyone finishes their work, you can go home earlier."

The Mid-Autumn Festival benefits at the factory this time were plentiful, but very few could be kept entirely for their own families; most would likely have to be used for social exchanges. Since things were not too busy these days, it was better to use them to build relationships.

Hearing this, everyone became happy.

After all, many people were from nearby rural areas; if they could leave early, they could just catch the bus home.

Liu Chuxue had originally planned to take leave to go home tomorrow, but with this news, she also decided to go home directly today.

After all, there was not much to do at the bank, and it would be finished quickly.

Looking at the items she had received, Sister Hong felt a bit troubled; she and Liu Chuxue still had to go to the bank, and they could hardly take these items to the bank first and then go home, could they?

Liu Chuxue naturally saw her thoughts. Walking over to her side, she whispered: "Sister Hong, there are not many things to do today, and they are simple. I just need to submit the documents for them to sign."

Sister Hong was still a bit uneasy, but thinking that what Liu Chuxue said was correct—today she was just going to deliver some documents for them to sign—she said: "Then I will trouble you to make the trip this afternoon."

After exchanging a few pleasantries, Liu Chuxue took the items and left the room.

She claimed she was going to return the items to the dormitory first and would not come back to the office.

In reality, she returned to the dormitory to put all the items she wanted to take home and the gifts for the Fu family into her space, planning to go to the bank, finish the business, deliver the festival gifts to the sugar factory, and then go straight home.

The business at the bank was handled very smoothly. She came out, took the bus, and headed to the sugar factory.

Arriving at the sugar factory gatehouse, she said: "Hello, uncle."

"What do you want?"

"I would like to find the Union Director, Geng Ruzhi."

"What is your relationship to her?"

"I am her future daughter-in-law."

She had originally wanted to say she was a distant relative, but thinking she would inevitably come here in the future, she decided to tell the truth; after all, it was not something to be ashamed of.

Hearing that she was the future daughter-in-law of Director Geng, the gatekeeper's attitude immediately turned one hundred and eighty degrees: "Please wait a moment; I will make a call right away."

Over there, Fu's mother, hearing that her future daughter-in-law had come to find her, could not stop smiling.

Arriving at the factory gate, she asked: "Liu Chuxue, why have you come?"

"The unit distributed some seafood for the Mid-Autumn Festival. I am bringing some for you to taste. Since I am in a hurry to catch the bus, I brought it here."

Fu's mother was polite with her words, but her face was full of smiles: "You say, you only received a small amount yourself, yet you still thought of us."

Liu Chuxue handed them over directly: "It is just a small token of my appreciation; please do not dislike it."

Liu Chuxue was in a hurry to catch the bus, did not stay long, and prepared to leave.

What she did not expect was that Fu Yan Cheng had also thought of delivering festival gifts for the Mid-Autumn Festival. He had specially borrowed a vehicle from the army, but when he arrived at the rolling steel factory, he found no one there.

Upon learning she had gone to the bank, he hurriedly went looking for her, but he was still a step late, which made Fu Yan Cheng extremely anxious.

She was not at the factory, nor at the bank; could she have already headed to the train station?

He quickly drove the car and chased towards the train station.
