Chapter 947: He Said He Wanted to Date Me, But I Didn't Agree

Liu Chuxue did not care what they thought; she had firmly insisted that not only had they starved the dog until it was thin, but they had also lost it and no one had come looking for it, and she was very angry.

Hearing this, the Secretary said, "So that is how it is. Rest assured, I will have someone pass a message to them right away."

After saying this, Liu Chuxue finally got to the main point: "Secretary, I am taking a bus back tomorrow afternoon. Is there anything you need me to bring?"

Upon hearing she was returning, the Secretary beamed and said, "No need, no need. It is enough that you yourself are coming back. By the way, where are your parents and Chunxiao? Are they coming back with you?"

"My mother is pregnant now and it is inconvenient for her. I..."

Before she could finish speaking, she heard the Secretary say, "Yes, yes, yes. Look at me, so excited that I forgot about this. It is still snowing, and the roads are not safe. Let her rest well and take care of the pregnancy; she can come back to the village to visit when the weather warms up."

Thinking of the precious cost of the phone call, the Secretary immediately added, "We can talk about anything else when you return. I will have someone pass a message to the grain station right now. Hang up first; be safe on your way back."

After hanging up the phone, Liu Chuxue slapped her own forehead, paid the money, and rushed home.

Upon entering the house, she saw her own father sweeping the snow off the tarp covering the coal balls: "Dad, I have something to tell you."

While sweeping the snow, Xiao Fu asked, "What is it?"

Liu Chuxue stepped closer: "Liu Zhiyuan is getting married the day after tomorrow."

Hearing this, Xiao Fu stopped his work: "Liu Zhiyuan is getting married? Why haven't I heard about this before? Which young man is she marrying?"

Liu Chuxue took the broom from his hand: "She is marrying a mail carrier from the post and telegraph office in the town."

"That is not bad. He has a proper job, so she won't have to scratch a living from the soil after she marries into his family. Your Secretary has a debt of gratitude to our family. Tomorrow, take Chunxiao and let us go back together. Your mother is pregnant and it is not easy for her to get tired, so she can stay behind. With Dujiao accompanying us, we will be at ease."

While the two were talking, they heard Xiao Mu's voice: "What are you two talking about?"

Xiao Fu turned around and smiled: "Liu Chuxue said Liu Zhiyuan is getting married on the third day. It has been snowing these past few days and the roads are slippery. Since you are pregnant now, do not go back. With Dujiao at home to accompany you, we will be at ease."

Hearing that Liu Zhiyuan was getting married, a smile appeared on Xiao Mu's face as well: "Uncle Secretary has always been good to our whole family. Liu Chuxue and Liu Zhiyuan also get along well. We must go back. We cannot forget to give the gift money."

Saying this, she looked somewhat disappointed and raised her hand to touch her belly: "Alright. Tomorrow, you three father and daughters will go back. I will not join the festivities."

At this moment, Dujiao walked out: "Uncle, Cousin, rest assured. I will definitely take good care of Aunt."

By now, the snow on the tarp covering the coal balls had been swept away. Fearing his wife would catch a cold, Xiao Fu helped her into the house.

After hesitating several times, Dujiao finally said, "Aunt, my mother has come looking for me several times. She even said she wants to introduce a boyfriend to me. I have told her she does not need to manage this, but I see she has not given up hope."

Liu Chuxue was the first to reply: "What do you think?"

Dujiao found a place to sit down: "Of course, I will not let her interfere. But having her block me at the canteen and the dormitory every day is really annoying."

Liu Chuxue thought of the news she had heard a few days ago: "I heard that Wang Haifeng from the Technical Section is pursuing you?"

Hearing this, Dujiao's face instantly turned red. In a small voice, she said, "He said he wants to date me, but I did not agree."

Hearing their conversation, Xiao Mu said, "From the Technical Section. The job is not bad. But what is this person like?"

Fearing her niece would feel embarrassed, she added, "You are not young anymore. If there is someone suitable, you might as well start dating first."

After saying this, she looked at Liu Chuxue: "Do you know that man?"
