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

Chapter 1057: On the contrary, I felt at peace.

Seeing Chu Xue nod, Fu's mother finally breathed a sigh of relief: "Your pillowcases cost twelve yuan, plus an industrial coupon. I heard that even with that, they're still in short supply."

Hao Yanhong was stunned: "Mom, how did you know? This is too expensive."

Mrs. Fu glanced at her unhappily: "Of course, it's what the guests who attended the wedding said that day."

Hao Yanhong wanted to say something, but Fu Yanwei stopped her with a sharp look.

This action did not escape Chu Xue's eyes, and she couldn't help but think to herself: Why didn't you do this sooner? Now that you've caused trouble, it's too late.

Fu Yanwei was utterly humiliated today: "Sister-in-law, I'm so sorry about what happened today. Don't worry, I'll make up for all of this double."

Chu Xue liked to keep clear accounts with her brothers: "Since you've said so, Second Brother, then just give me fifty yuan for the cloth, sugar, and pillowcases, plus sugar coupons, cloth coupons, and industrial vouchers."

After saying that, he glanced at the radio that Fu Yanwei was holding: "Since Yancheng has already told you about the radio, I won't get involved anymore."

Upon hearing this, Hao Yanhong looked at Fu Yanwei and asked, "What did she mean?"

Upon hearing this question, Fu Yanwei's face immediately darkened: "Of course we have to compensate Lao Si's family with a new radio. Are you satisfied now?"

Chu Xue wasn't going to let her get away with it: "Since you think I overcalculated, then let's go with sixty. I like that number. I wonder when I'll get my compensation?"

The father, who had been silent until now, said, "When we divide the family property tomorrow, I'll just deduct it from the second son's share."

After saying that, he looked at Fu Yanwei and said, "Your mother and I have already made our stance clear. What's said is said. Pack your things and go rent a place. Move out tonight."

Fu Yanwei wiped his face: "Mom and Dad, I understand."

Turning to Hao Yanhong, who looked dissatisfied, he asked, "Are you satisfied now?"

Hao Yanhong hadn't expected things to turn out this way. She had originally planned to put the cloth at the bottom, since her fourth brother's wife was newly married and wouldn't be making clothes right away. She figured the cloth wouldn't be needed for a while, which was why she had this idea. As for the pillowcase, she intended to give it to her eldest sister-in-law as a dowry for her younger sister, hoping that her aunt would be kind in the future and that her family wouldn't be without someone to stand up for her if anything happened.

Thinking about having to find a place to stay tonight, Hao Yanhong felt that her father-in-law was too heartless; "Mom and Dad, since we're going to separate the family property tomorrow anyway, why don't we just stay here?"

She figured that no matter what, they would definitely get a share of the house in the courtyard. After the division of the family property tomorrow, they would still have to come back to live there.

Then Fu's father said, "Find a house and move out today. If you can't find one, figure it out yourself. Your mother and I have no intention of dividing this yard among yourselves."

Fu's father's words made Hao Yanhong's eyes widen in surprise: "If the house isn't being divided, does that mean that after the family splits up tomorrow, everyone will have to move out?"

Mr. Fu made no attempt to hide his true intentions: "That's right, from now on you will all live outside, and your mother and I will have some peace and quiet."

Upon hearing that the family would be splitting up tomorrow and everyone would have to move out, Hao Yanhong actually felt a sense of relief.

The matter was settled, and Fu's father didn't say anything more; it was just a matter of enduring for one more day.

A short while later, the eldest son and his wife entered the courtyard.

Guo Wenjing was also carrying a large fish: "Mom and Dad, let's have an extra meal tonight."

When Fu's mother saw the rather large fish in her eldest daughter-in-law's hand, she asked, "Where did you get this?"

Guo Wenjing laughed and said, "My brother went fishing at Houhai today. We happened to be walking from that direction, so we caught a fish for free."

Fu's mother didn't object, but she could clearly see that Fu wasn't as happy as before: "Mom, what happened at home?"
