1970s: A hot-tempered wife who accompanied a soldier to the military compound and made a fortune.

Chapter 955 Returning to the Village in Triumph
Instead of stopping at the village secretary's house as Chunxiao had hoped, the car drove directly back to the slope below her own house.

Today is Ji-won's wedding day, and Chu-snow will not steal her thunder; that's not something a human being would do.

However, some villagers saw a car coming from the end of the village and guessed who had returned. Some even came specifically to see if they could get some benefits.

From afar, someone shouted, "Shanliang really is back!"

"Don't call me that. The Party Secretary said before that Shanliang has changed his name. Now his surname is Xiao and his given name is Changsheng. Don't call him that."

"Yes, yes, yes, look at my memory, the Party Secretary did say that."

"Chang Sheng, yes, it should be called Chang Sheng, what a wonderful meaning it has."

"Chang Sheng, you've come back for Zhi Yuan's wedding banquet?"

"Yes, the Party Secretary has been kind to me. It's such a joyous occasion for my granddaughter's wedding, so of course I had to come back. Besides, I've been away for so long, and I've missed everyone."

"Oh my, your mouth has become sweeter since you came to the city."

“Look at what you’re saying. Even if there are many unpleasant things here, it’s still the place where I grew up, and I can’t forget the kindness of my fellow villagers.”

“That’s well said. Even if you’re not a son of the Liu family, the land of Liushu Village has nurtured you. It’s good that you haven’t forgotten the kindness of the village. You’re a person with a conscience.”

Mr. Xiao took out the Daqianmen cigarettes he had brought back and handed one to each of the men present, young and old: "It's rare for me to come back, so I need to go home and check things out first. Once I'm all packed up, I'll go help out at the Party Secretary's house. Please pass on this message for me."

Having gotten the benefits, he naturally understood what the other person meant: "Yes, yes, we should go home and visit first."

Before everyone had left, Mr. Xiao headed home first.

Although he had settled down in the city, he dreamed of his house in the countryside countless times.

When Zhui Feng returned to familiar surroundings, he was overjoyed, running around like a madman, darting uphill and downhill in a gust of wind. Anyone could see how happy he was.

As they went inside to clean, several stray dogs had already followed behind Zhui Feng. Fu Yancheng happened to come out to splash water and, seeing this scene, couldn't help but laugh.

After Xiao's father looked around inside and out, he heard Chuxue say, "The cabbages and radishes that the Party Secretary's family helped harvest are still stored in the cellar. We'll find some sacks to pack them up and take them back with the truck."

Mr. Xiao nodded: "Okay, I'll take a look in a bit. If the quality is alright, I'll save some for your sister. We have a greenhouse behind the house. We missed the New Year, but we'll be able to eat those vegetables gradually in a few days."

Chu Xue naturally wouldn't object: "Okay, Dad, you can arrange it as you see fit."

Chunxiao helped tidy up the house, but she couldn't stay still any longer: "Dad, when are you going over? Or I'm going out to find someone to play with."

Mr. Xiao could tell that she was getting restless: "You've come all this way, go on."

Chu Xue glanced at the sky and said, "The house is almost ready. Yan Cheng and I will stay and heat the kang (a traditional heated brick bed). Dad, you can go and visit the Party Secretary's house first."

Mr. Xiao nodded, picked up the prepared gifts, and went out the door.

After watching the person leave, Fu Yancheng said, "Xue'er, I'll go fetch some firewood."

The first snow didn't stop them, after all, no one had lived in this house all winter, and it would be impossible to live there without heating the kang (a traditional heated bed).

However, they did not plan to stay in the main house this time, since the kang (heated brick bed) there was too big, was useless, and wouldn't be warm enough for a while.

They only stayed one night, so they burned down the room where Fu Yancheng had stayed before and the room where Chu Xue had stayed.

Once the kang (heated brick bed) was heated, Fu Yancheng took advantage of the unexpected snowfall and pulled the person into his arms.

Chu Xue was startled and punched him lightly before nestling obediently in his arms.
