Chapter 847: Visiting My Young Aunt

Liu Chuxue entered the room and saw that Xiao Nianchun looked a bit more spirited than a few days ago: "Miss, I came to visit you."

Xiao Nianchun offered a faint smile: "It's hard to get a day off, why did you run over here?"

Liu Chuxue moved close to her side: "My parents were a bit worried about you, but my father has had to work overtime these past few days. With the weather getting colder, my mother isn't convenient to go out, so they sent me."

Remembering something, she added: "I brought a fish for you. In a moment, Miss's husband will stew it for you. That fish is very fresh; I guarantee you'll like it when it's ready."

After subtly guiding her aunt a few words, she then said: "Miss, you rest. I still need to go back to my hometown. I've already contacted the meat processing plant to hitch a ride on their truck. It's about time; I have to go out and wait for the vehicle."

Thinking of Xia Qiu, Xiao Nianchun got up from the bed, took two pieces of floral cotton cloth from the cabinet, and said: "Bring this to your sister."

Liu Chuxue was just about to refuse when she heard Xiao Nianchun say: "Take it. It's a small token of my heart as your aunt."

Since the words had reached this point, Liu Chuxue could not refuse anymore.

After thanking her aunt, she prepared to leave.

Just then, having received news, Qiu Yiming and Qiu Yilin ran back home: "Mom, who has come?"

Seeing Liu Chuxue, the two greeted her politely: "Cousin Liu Chuxue."

Liu Chuxue took a handful of White Rabbit milk candies from her pocket: "Each of you take a few; it's sweet for Tiantian's mouth."

Qiu Jinzhou walked in at this moment: "Your cousin Liu Chuxue brought fish to the house. You'll have good fortune to eat at noon."

The two children's eyes immediately lit up, but Qiu Yiming quickly reacted: "Dad, just supplement Mom's health; we can eat something else."

The ten-year-old boy, perhaps due to growing tall, was terribly thin. Yet, though there was longing in his eyes, he could still think of his mother at this moment, which was truly moving.

Liu Chuxue bent slightly and lowered her voice: "At noon, have your dad stew it for you to eat. Your cousin has channels and can still get fish; I'll send some to you in a few days."

Hearing these words, Qiu Jinzhou's eyes flashed with light: "Liu Chuxue, are you telling the truth?"

Liu Chuxue had already decided to send fish several more times during her aunt's postpartum confinement. Seeing her uncle ask this, she replied: "Yes."

Qiu Jinzhou rubbed his hands and said: "Then, afterwards, could you help by giving one every now and then? Don't worry; I'll exchange money and coupons with that person."

Glancing at his wife on the bed, he added: "Your aunt suffered greatly this time. The doctor said she needs plenty of supplementation to restore her vitality."

Liu Chuxue readily agreed: "Alright. Later I'll tell that person. Uncle, Yiming, Yilin, I have other matters, so I'll leave first."

Having finished speaking, she looked at Xiao Nianchun: "Miss, take good care to recover. I'll come over again in a few days."

After she left, the neighbors in the courtyard gathered in front of the Qiu family door: "Jinzhou, how old is Nianchun's niece from her natal family? Does she have a partner?"

Qiu Jinzhou had no time to deal with them: "My Nianchun's niece is already engaged. She will turn eighteen after the New Year and get married. Everyone, just stop thinking about her."

Someone, unwilling to give up, asked: "What does her fiancé do?"

While sweeping the door clean, Qiu Jinzhou replied: "He's a soldier, and an officer qualified to have his family accompany him. They got engaged after falling in love freely. You all stop trying to make moves on her."

Hearing this, those people murmured among themselves: "What a pity. Such a good Miss."

Liu Chuxue didn't know that, just by bringing a fish to her own aunt, someone wanted to introduce her to a partner. If Fu Yan Cheng found out, he would probably be sick with anger.
