Chapter 383: Full schedule before the New Year

Liu Jianshe also saw Ma Hongxia and Director Wang on the edge.

Liu Jianshe walked over and said, "Mom, Aunt Wang, you've worked hard."

When Ma Hongxia and Director Wang saw Liu Jianshe, smiles immediately appeared in their eyes.

Director Wang said, "Hi, your mother has been working really hard today. Thanks to your mother being here, she gave me a lot of advice and helped me avoid a lot of trouble."

Ma Hongxia smiled and said, "Director Wang, you are too polite. You can already think of all this. I am just reminding you."

Director Wang patted Ma Hongxia on the shoulder and said, "There's no need to be so polite between us. You performed very well today, and I will report it truthfully. If nothing unexpected happens, you can come to work at the street office after the New Year."

Ma Hongxia was very happy. Being able to work in the street office was much better than setting up a stall.

Liu Jianshe often advised her not to go to the stall, but she really couldn't sit still.

Liu Jianshe said, "Thank you, Aunt Wang! How long do you estimate the restoration work will take?"

Director Wang explained: "Because the Chinese New Year is coming soon, everyone has to go to the market to prepare for the New Year, so we have been repairing it day and night since last night. It will be finished by tomorrow night and will be back to normal the day after tomorrow morning."

Liu Jianshe nodded and asked, "Have you two eaten? How about I go get you something to eat?"

Ma Hongxia knew that Liu Jianshe was worried, so she said, "We've eaten. We ate in a big pot with them. We had meat at noon and in the evening. The food was good."

Liu Jianshe had nothing to do, so he just chatted with Ma Hongxia and Director Wang here.

By 7:30 in the evening, there were almost no people on the streets.

Director Wang asked the people who came to help to go back home.

Tomorrow morning at six o'clock, continue to gather here. You don't need to eat breakfast when you arrive.

I still had breakfast with the rest of the group.

Liu Jianshe and Ma Hongxia chatted and laughed as they set off on their journey home.

Ma Hongxia asked, "Jianshe, how are you and Bai Lu getting along lately?"

Liu Jianshe understood what Ma Hongxia meant and said, "Mom, Bai Lu and I are just like that..."

Ma Hongxia reminded, "The New Year is coming soon. You should buy some things and go to their house in the next two days. Otherwise, it would be rude. Bai Lu is a good girl. Mom likes her very much!"

Wang Jianshe smiled and said, "Mom, if you like Bai Lu so much, what about Yang Yuwei? Does Yang Yuwei like her?"

Ma Hongxia was stunned. Yes, Liu Jianshe could see Yang Yuwei every week when he went fishing.

Yang Yuwei is also very pretty, even prettier than Qin Huairu!

For a moment, Ma Hongxia was in a dilemma. Yang Yuwei was fine, Bai Lu was fine too...

She likes either of these two girls no matter which one becomes her daughter-in-law.

But Liu Jianshe can’t marry two wives, right?

Seeing that Ma Hongxia looked a little anxious and worried, Liu Jianshe couldn't help but laugh and said, "Mom, I'm just teasing you! They are both good girls, but I don't want to get married right now. It's still early."

Ma Hongxia sighed and said, "Children and grandchildren have their own blessings. My son is so outstanding, and the girl who likes him is naturally outstanding too. Mom has one request for you, son. No matter which girl you like in the future, you must be responsible for her. Do you understand?"

Liu Jianshe nodded.

Ma Hongxia reminded again: "Whether it's Bai Lu's family or Yang Yuwei's family, you should prepare the gifts in the near future and choose a time to go to their homes. It's not for their daughters. It's not polite if you don't reciprocate. Whether it's Bai Lu or Yang Yuwei, they have all been to our house, and they didn't come empty-handed. Do you understand what mom means?"

The mother and daughter walked and talked, and soon returned to the yard.

Ma Hongxia didn't see the 28-bar bike at the door, so she couldn't help asking, "Jianshe, where's your bike?"

Liu Jianshe said: "A colleague in the factory went home for a blind date during the Spring Festival, so I lent it to him. Anyway, I can run fast, so I can just walk wherever I want to go. If I can't get there, I can take a car."

Ma Hongxia nodded, very satisfied. "Okay, when others are in trouble, give them a hand and help them. Sometimes, just giving a hand may be a life-saving grace to others."

Ma Hongxia will never forget what kind of life she lived after Yang Zhengde's death.

Especially the time when Liu Jianshe suffered a work-related injury and was taken back home from the hospital.

Liu Jianshe also knew that Ma Hongxia was a kind person, so he said, "Don't worry, Mom. I know."

Ma Hongxia said, "By the way, you haven't been to Qinjia Village for more than a week. Will you go there later?"
