Chapter 1025 I need your help
After thinking for a moment, Mr. Xiao said, "I won't divide it separately. I'll just bring one with me and ask the cafeteria to prepare a dish for them."

Hearing this, Chu Xue had an idea in mind: "Okay, let's do it this way."

The group of people who left with the meat avoided people on their way home to avoid trouble, and did not forget to remind their families: "Keep this matter to yourselves. Don't eat other people's meat and cause them trouble."

The Party Secretary wasn't old-fashioned, and since his wife hadn't been feeling well lately, he felt a bit grateful when he saw the meat.

Before long, several men arrived at Liangzi's house. The men were drinking and chatting happily. Chuxue didn't join them at the table. Instead, she ate and chatted with Liangzi's aunt in the kitchen: "Chuxue, your mother is about to give birth, right?"

"The due date is at the end of May."

"It'll be about two and a half months, by which time you'll be married."

Suddenly remembering something, Aunt Liangzi looked amused and couldn't help but say, "When your eldest nephew has such a small uncle, your family will definitely be lively. If you get married and have good luck with children, it will be even more lively then."

If this were a native, Chu Xue would probably have blushed long ago. But Chu Xue, a person from a later era, laughed when she heard this and shamelessly said, "It's not impossible."

Aunt Liangzi liked the first snow more and more as she looked at it, and couldn't help but sigh in her heart: In the end, her family was not blessed with this.

The men over there still had endless things to chat about. After helping Aunt Liangzi tidy up the kitchen, Chuxue went home first.

As they had discussed beforehand, Chu Xue carefully divided the meat into pieces and packed them into her basket. After stewing a small pot of ribs on the stove, she went back inside and entered the space behind the door.

After collecting the fruit from the space, I thought I would have to go to the black market in a few days to find a way to exchange the grain, fruit, and medicinal herbs in the warehouse for money, because I would need money to hoard houses or make investments after the reform and opening up.

Looking at her still empty little sea, Chu Xue wondered when she would have the chance to go on a business trip to the south, so she could bring in some marine life. Otherwise, it would be a real waste to leave it empty. She only came out of her space after hearing some noise at the gate. Seeing that her father wasn't drunk, she added a small piece of firewood to the stove before going back to her room to rest.

The next morning, Chu Xue, preoccupied with something, got up early.

They lit a fire to reheat the pork ribs that had been stewed the night before, and placed a few steamed buns made from a mixture of wheat and water brought back from the city on top. They were just waiting for Mr. Xiao to get up, eat, and then they would set off.

As soon as she opened the door, she saw someone standing outside, which startled her: "What are you doing standing at my front door so early in the morning?"

The person standing outside was none other than Liu Jiandong, who had been cuckolded.

He looked utterly dejected when he heard Chuxue's question: "I need your help."

Chu Xue frowned slightly: "Given our relationship, do you think I would help?"

The two families finally severed ties, is she crazy to help him?
Liu Jiandong said in a hoarse voice, "I won't let you help me for nothing."

He held out his hand, revealing a small goldfish: "If you're willing to help me, this little yellow fish is yours."

She knew Liu Jiandong all too well. For him to offer such a small sum of money so readily was suspicious. It was either a trap, a risk, or something too difficult: "I'm sorry, no matter what the favor is, I have neither the time nor the interest to help you."
