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

Chapter 1052 Alright, that's something for the eldest brother to worry about.
Thinking that her son was going to the city tomorrow, she suddenly looked up and said, "Have you asked for leave yet? Don't forget to get a letter of introduction from the brigade leader."

Qiu Shaofeng nodded in agreement: "I can't forget him, I miss Junjun so much."

When Qiu's mother heard her son mention his eldest grandson, her face lit up with smiles. She pointed to the kitchen doorway and said, "We don't have anything good at home. I've gathered half a bag of dried mushrooms that I dried last autumn. Take them over tomorrow so they can have something to eat."

Qiu Shaofeng glanced at his second brother's room: "Should we not bring it?"

Just then, Qiu's mother looked up and saw her eldest son's eyes: "What's wrong with bringing these? You and your wife picked up a lot of these things. Your sister-in-law has helped you a lot in the past, so you should repay her in kind. These are the only things you can still bring out."

An Xiaojing listened to the conversation outside from inside the house, her expression very awkward. She knew that her mother-in-law was talking to her.

She just complained a few days ago when her older brother and sister-in-law were going to the city to attend her sister-in-law's wedding. She saw the few bags of dried vegetables her mother-in-law had prepared. Why is she still upset about that?
Qiu Shaofeng didn't want to cause trouble: "Mom, keep your voice down."

This youngest daughter-in-law of their own family has been spoiled by her family since she was a child. If it weren't for her inappropriate remarks a few times before, she wouldn't have angered the eldest son and his wife, and their husband wouldn't have said that apart from work points, all other income would belong to their respective households.

Since then, her eldest son has been giving her special meals, and he has never sent any to anyone other than her great-grandmother. This has made her even more resentful, and she has started to fuss over every little thing.

Mrs. Qiu sighed: "Don't worry about this. I'll talk to them about it later."

Qiu Shaofeng had his wife stay at her parents' home for two reasons. First, it would save him the hassle of traveling back and forth, since his sister-in-law was returning home for the third day after her wedding, and her family had said they would be hosting a banquet, which they would definitely have to attend. Second, he wanted his wife to avoid his younger brother's wife; he didn't know what was wrong with her, but the closer she got to her due date, the more trouble she caused, which was quite annoying. When Qiu's father returned, Qiu's mother had already prepared the meal.

While everyone was eating, Qiu's mother brought up the dried mushrooms again: "Shaofeng is going to his mother-in-law's place in the city tomorrow, so I packed a bag of dried mushrooms for him to take with him to add to his dishes. I just wanted to let you know."

Upon hearing this, Qiu Shaocheng felt a burning sensation on his face, as if he had been slapped. If his wife hadn't caused trouble that day, his mother wouldn't have pulled this stunt.

He coughed lightly and spoke up before his wife could say anything: "Those dried mushrooms were originally picked by my sister-in-law and Shaomei from the mountain, so we have no objection."

Qiu Shaomei is starting to look down on her second sister-in-law. Before marriage, she had such a good reputation and there were no problems before she got pregnant, but ever since she became pregnant, she has been throwing tantrums all the time.
You said that if you and your second brother had a fight at home, no one would say anything. But this guy, I don't know how he can be a man, always says things like, "When Junjun had his full moon celebration, my sister-in-law's family added such a heavy meal, so naturally we have to show our appreciation. Our dried mushrooms are a small gift but a big token of our goodwill."

Seeing that her parents-in-law and sister-in-law were all speaking up for her, An Xiaojing felt a bit annoyed: "You said it yourself, the food they gave us was plentiful, can you guarantee that they'll even look at that bag of dried mushrooms now?"

As soon as she said that, everyone lost the will to speak.

Qiu Shaocheng sighed heavily in his heart, picked up a piece of food with his chopsticks and put it into An Xiaojing's bowl: "Alright, that's something for your older brother to worry about. You're pregnant, so it's better if you worry less."
