It seemed like no one had called her on this day in her previous life.
Her rebirth has caused some changes in this life.
Has anyone placed an order? It doesn't seem right.
If placing an order, the person calling will give their name.
Ten minutes later, the village office phone rang again, and Chu Xuan answered.
A deep man's voice came from the phone, "Hello, comrade! I'm looking for Chu Xuan."
Chu Xuan was very sure that this was the first time she heard this voice in her two lifetimes. She did not recognize the man on the other side of the phone.
"Hello! I am Chu Xuan. Who are you? What do you want from me?"
The other end of the phone responded, "I am Wu Chengcheng, your mother's current husband, Tian Xiaoyun. Your mother has just received your letter. At present, she cannot write a reply. She can only use sign language and cannot make a sound. Let me tell you. Wait. When she recovers, she will go back to see you and Xiaofeng as soon as possible."
Chu Xuan never wrote to her mother in her previous life, so she never received a call from Wu Bingcheng.
Chu Xuan had a guess in her mind, "Did my mother have surgery on her eyes and throat? Yesterday I just learned that my mother left me and my little brother because she was seriously ill."
"That's right. The surgery was a success."
"Uncle Wu, please tell me everything about my mother. Did you just raise the money for the surgery? That's why you postponed the surgery now? Where is my mother hospitalized? I want to see her. Also, how much money do I earn? A thousand yuan can help my mother pay for the medicine..."
Chu Xuan never thought about her mother in her previous life, and she wanted to make up for it in this life.
"Your mother and I have money in our hands. We are not just undergoing surgery now. We have already had one in the past two years. We will discuss the specific situation when you and your daughter meet. Your mother and I are currently abroad. It is difficult to go through the procedures for going abroad. You are here Wait at home with peace of mind. We will be able to go back within three months at the latest. It is difficult for you to contact us, but I have a way to contact you. I will call you every once in a while. I have something else to do here, so hang up now !”
Before Chu Xuan could respond, the caller had already hung up.
Chu Xuan didn't expect that her mother had been fighting against illness in the past few years.
In the future, she will have to work harder to earn money and must help her mother share part of her medical expenses.
It’s better not to tell my younger brother for now, so as not to worry him.
By the time she got home, her younger brother had already cooked ham and vegetable hand-made noodles.
They had a wonderful meal.
After dinner, Chu Xuan was just about to clear away the dishes when Liu Dapeng's voice came from outside the door.
"Is Chu Xuan at home? I'll come over and carry the basket."
Chu Feng took the bowls and chopsticks from Chu Xuan's hand and said, "Sister, go out and take a look! I'll take care of it."
Chu Xuan nodded, walked out of the kitchen, and saw two baskets on the ground at the entrance of the courtyard, each containing half a basket of new peanuts filled with mud.
Liu Dapeng stood outside the courtyard gate, a little embarrassed, "My uncle's family grew a lot of peanuts and gave them to my family. I'll give them to you and Xiaofeng to try."
After saying that, without waiting for Chu Xuan to say anything, he ran away.
Chu Xuan pursed her lips and smiled helplessly. Liu Dapeng felt increasingly embarrassed to talk to her.
She likes to eat boiled peanuts and plans to boil half of them tomorrow morning and dry the remaining half for frying peanuts later.
Little did he know that Liu Dapeng met Mu Chenze on his way back.
Mu Chenze stopped him and said bluntly, "Liu Dapeng, it was you who eavesdropped outside Chu Xuan's house that night, right?"
Just when Liu Dapeng was about to deny it, Mu Chenze said immediately, "If you are a man, don't lie!"
Liu Dapeng must be a man and has no choice but to admit it. "Yes, it's me. I will never wander outside her house again. I heard that she doesn't like me. I can swear that I will never pester her."
Mu Chenze suddenly realized that the sermon he had prepared in advance was of no use.
Liu Dapeng just gave up pursuing Chu Xuan?
It doesn’t seem like true love!
"Chu Xuan and I are very good friends. If you let me know that you were hiding outside her house and eavesdropping, don't blame me for not recognizing people with my fists!"
He waved his fist towards Liu Dapeng.
Liu Dapeng drooped his head, "I know. Can I go?"
Mu Chenze got out of the way, "Let's go!"
Liu Dapeng walked some distance away and suddenly looked back at him, "When one day I can make a lot of money like you, I will pursue her! Entanglement and pursuit are not the same thing."
Only then did Mu Chenze realize that he had not given up, "Even if you can make a lot of money, Chu Xuan will not marry you!"
"Why?"
"Because Chu Xuan doesn't plan to get married in this life."
Liu Dapeng clenched his fists with determination in his eyes, "If she doesn't get married, I'll be single. If she doesn't get married, I'll be single for the rest of my life!"
After that, he left without looking back.
Mu Chenze was surprised, Liu Dapeng was a love interest? Are there really men who like fat girls?
Let it be! As long as it doesn't disturb Chu Xuan's life.
But he didn't plan to tell Chu Xuan about this.
The next morning, Hua Daling ran to Chu Xuan's house.
"Xiaoxuan, let me tell you something. Chu Zhi and Pan Xiaoli broke off their engagement. The 2,000 yuan gift was returned to 1,800 yuan, and the remaining 200 yuan was said to be Pan Xiaoli's reputation damage. I heard that Pan Xiaoli could not have children, and she was not a virgin... …”
Chu Xuan had just cooked the peanuts, took out a plate and put it in Hua Daling's hand. "Aunt Hua, try this year's new peanuts quickly. Be careful not to burn them. I know what you are talking about. Pan Xiaoli came to me to find out if there was anything ulterior to Chu Zhi's family. If she found out, I would like to use this opportunity Don’t pay back the bride price.”
Hua Daling held the plate with both hands and felt a sore nose. She always kept the peanuts for pressing or changing the oil and cooked them directly. This was the second time she had eaten them. The first time she had eaten them was also at Chu Xuan's house. First time without shell, this time with shell.
"Xiao Xuan, thank you! I really ate it!"
"Eat it!"
After receiving an affirmative answer, Hua Daling peeled off the peanut skin with a pious look on her face. For fear of falling off, she carefully took out the peanut inside, put it into her mouth, and tasted it slowly.
“It tastes better when cooked in the shell! It’s so fragrant!”
I peeled three of them off and was too embarrassed to eat them again.
Chu Xuan also took out a plate for himself and his younger brother, "Eat with open stomachs. I cooked five or six kilograms. Aunt Hua, just eat it, there is still more in the pot. I will bring a plate later."
Aunt Hua smiled and waved her hands, "You can't take food with you. I will continue to tell you about the Chu Zhi family. Just because the Pan family withheld 200 yuan, Feng Chunhua cursed at the door of her house for more than an hour. It was so dirty to my ears. . Why doesn’t she go to Pan’s house to scold her if she has the ability? Let’s clean up all the troubles in the family.”
Chu Xuan said while eating peanuts, "If she dares to go to Pan's house and scold her, they will beat her mouth to pieces."
Hua Daling added, "By the way, she also spread the word that it was you who reminded Chu Zhi to take Pan Xiaoli to the hospital for a check-up. You have to be mentally prepared in case the Pan family comes to visit..."
"I have already explained this to Pan Xiaoli. I told her that Feng Chunhua had a grudge against me and deliberately poured dirty water on me. She understood and did not conflict with me."
"That's good. I just came here to report the news. If there's nothing else, I'm leaving!"
Hua Daling stood up to leave, but Chu Xuan forced her to eat a plate of boiled peanuts.
Hua Daling couldn't resist, so she accepted it.
After walking some distance, I suddenly remembered something and slapped my head, "Look at my memory."
Return to Chu Xuan’s house.
Deliberately lowering her voice, "Xiao Xuan, I forgot to mention just now that Feng Chunhua is going to Haishi next month. I didn't hear the specific date, but I heard her asking Chu Zhi and Chu Dashan to keep it secret and not to tell anyone. .”
