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

Chapter 452 I must have been out of my mind, why did I take this job?
The two were classmates, and when they were in the commune, they took good care of Liu Shuqin.

He had secretly liked Liu Shuqin for a while, but unfortunately, Liu Shuqin said that she wanted to find a city person who would receive government-subsidized food rations in the future, so he gave up on that idea.

It was because of what Liu Shuqin had done to Chuxue that she had a problem with her. She never expected that the usually arrogant Liu Shuqin would be like this: "Do you really want to apologize to Chuxue?"

"Now everyone in the village knows that Liu Chuxue has made something of herself. I'm not stupid, and I naturally don't want to go against her. But because of what happened before, I'm too embarrassed to even visit her. So I've come here to ask you for help. You wouldn't refuse to help me with this little thing, would you?"

Liu Cunyi raised his hand to the back of his head: "Alright then, I'll go over tomorrow and pass on a message for you."

Liu Shuqin became anxious: "That won't do."

Hearing her say that, Liu Cunyi asked with a suspicious look, "Why not?"

Liu Shuqin coughed lightly and said, "She'll probably be going back to work in the city tomorrow, and who knows when she'll be back. I don't want to keep dragging this on, or I'll feel uneasy. Could you do me the trouble of running errands for me later?"

After all, they'd been classmates for years, and he'd secretly liked her for a while: "Okay, I'll run errands for you in a bit."

Liu Shuqin's face lit up with joy when she saw that he had agreed: "When you go to see her later, don't mention me first. Can you find another reason?"

"Why?" Liu Cunyi frowned slightly.

Liu Shuqin put on a pitiful expression: "You know how badly I offended her before. If she knew it was me who invited her, she definitely wouldn't come out. Please help me."

Seeing her serious expression, Liu Cunyi reluctantly nodded and agreed: "Okay, I'll run the errand for you."

Seeing that she agreed, he breathed a sigh of relief and said with a smile, "Then I'll wait for her by the grove of trees south of the village. You must find a way to get her to come over." Upon hearing that they were going to the grove of trees south, Liu Cunyi said, "It's just an apology, why do we have to go there?"

Liu Shuqin said with a hint of coquetry, "You know how arrogant I was before. Although I wanted to apologize to her, I didn't want anyone to know, so I naturally had to find a place where I wouldn't be disturbed."

Thinking of something, she said, "Don't follow me, or I'll feel embarrassed."

Afraid of giving herself away, she turned and ran away after saying that, saying, "I'm waiting over there, so hurry up."

As Liu Cunyi watched the runner disappear into the distance, a look of helplessness flashed across his face, and he sighed: He must have been out of his mind to take on this job; it was truly a mess.

But having already agreed, it was naturally difficult to stand them up. He slapped the back of his head and cursed himself inwardly: "Serves you right for being so kind. You only got yourself into this mess."

He glanced into the yard, then walked towards Chuxue's house at the end of the village, calling out to her, "Mom, I'm going out for a bit, I'll be right back."

From inside the courtyard came Aunt Liangzi's loud voice: "Don't go too far. You'll have to go with your dad to your grandpa's place to dig a cellar later."

"Okay, I'll be back soon, it won't delay anything."

Aunt Liangzi heard him run away and said, "That rascal."

Liu Cunyi had been thinking all the way about how to tell Chu Xue, and he almost pulled his hair out from all the tugging, but he still couldn't come up with a perfect explanation. Just as he was worrying, he heard a child in the distance say, "Hurry up and eat, we'll go collect cicada shells later."

Upon hearing this, his eyes lit up. They used to go out at night to find cicada shells quite often, so he quickened his pace.
