Chapter 605: Who's Looking for Me This Early in the Morning?

As soon as the bicycle appeared, the villagers they met along the way were utterly envious: "Chuxue is back, where are you going?"

"Second Aunt, I'm going to Guangming Village to visit my older sister."

"Oh my, Xia Qiu is so blessed to have a sister like you who cares for her."

"Second Aunt, my parents couldn't make the time, so I'm running this errand for them. I'll be off now."

"Ah, go quickly."

Watching Chuxue ride past like the wind, the crowd said: "That girl Chuxue does have some luck."

"What do you mean 'some luck'? Although Old Man Liu and his wife treated their second branch poorly, with Shanliang protecting them, she still finished high school."

"Back then, the villagers mocked Shanliang, saying he was going against his own parents just so a few money-losing daughters could go to school. Look at now; how outstanding his daughter has become."

"That's true indeed, only the Liu couple miscalculated and didn't get to enjoy their granddaughter's blessings."

While the gossip behind continued, Chuxue had already left the village.

Having a bicycle was convenient; a journey of over an hour was covered in just half an hour.

As she approached the Northern Suburb Farm, she took items from her space prepared for her future sister-in-law. The Fu family had many siblings, and building a good relationship with her future sister-in-law could do no harm. Besides, Fu Yanwan, this sister-in-law, was quite likable, and she truly enjoyed getting to know her.

As soon as the bicycle entered the educated youth courtyard, everyone turned to look.

Chuxue had been here before and quickly reached the door of Fu Yanwan's dormitory. Seeing someone standing at the door, she said: "Comrade, please call Fu Yanwan for me."

Sun Juanjuan turned around and saw Chuxue, immediately shouting into the dormitory: "Yanwan, someone is looking for you."

Fu Yanwan was tying her braids: "Who is looking for me this early in the morning?"

After stepping to the door and seeing who was standing outside, she instantly became excited: "Fourth Sister-in-law, how did you come here?"

She hopped over in a few steps to stand before Chuxue, with such warmth that anyone unaware might think they had known each other for a long time.

Chuxue handed her the cloth bag from the bicycle handlebars: "I went on a business trip to the Northeast a few days ago and brought some local specialties from there. This is your share; I brought it along on my way."

Fu Yanwan truly hadn't expected that Fourth Sister-in-law would think of her even while on a business trip. Instead of taking the bag, she gave Chuxue a big hug first: "Fourth Sister-in-law, you are truly too kind."

Chuxue originally wanted to correct her, but seeing so many people staring at them, she held her tongue.

Fu Yanwan did not open the bag in front of Chuxue: "Fourth Sister-in-law, are you going to visit Sister Xia Qiu?"

Chuxue nodded: "Yes, you're busy, I'll go over there now."

Hearing that she was leaving immediately, Fu Yanwan wore an expression of reluctance.

Chuxue smiled: "I'll come visit you again when I have time."

Fu Yanwan was happy now: "Fourth Sister-in-law, don't forget."

She walked the person all the way out of the educated youth courtyard before stopping: "Fourth Sister-in-law, goodbye, ride carefully."

Chuxue's bicycle skills were quite good; after riding a distance, she waved back: "Go back now."

When she arrived at the Qiu family home, most of the Qiu family had already gone to the fields for the morning work.

Xia Qiu was wearing an apron preparing breakfast. Chuxue saw her busy in the kitchen at a glance: "Sister."

Hearing the familiar voice, Xia Qiu turned to look at the yard, her face full of joy: "Xue, you're back?"

Chuxue propped up the bicycle: "Mm, I came back last night. Mom was worried about you, so she asked me to come check on you."

Glancing toward the kitchen: "Are you the only one cooking?"

Xia Qiu glanced toward her sister-in-law's room: "My sister-in-law is pregnant; it was just confirmed. She's been suffering severe morning sickness these past few days. Breakfast isn't much trouble; I can manage it alone."

She wiped her hands on her apron and pulled Chuxue along: "Breakfast is ready. Come, let's sit inside."
