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

Chapter 1069 Distributing Return Gifts

To be honest, although these days are not like the old society, there are still men who cook, but not many. When the people in the courtyard heard what the sons-in-law of the Xiao family said, they all laughed, and were even more envious.

Several neighbors who came to help with the cooking stood out: "Lamei, you are so lucky. Look how considerate your sons-in-law are. You'll have many more good days ahead."

Xiao's mother, who had been feeling a pang of regret for her meat, eggs, and vegetables, couldn't help but smile upon hearing this: "It's all thanks to their uncle's good example."

Seeing Qiu Jinzhou like this, Xiao Nianchun felt uneasy. She naturally understood why he was so proactive today, but to be honest, after what had happened, it was impossible for her not to blame him. But life had to go on, and they couldn't stay in this stalemate forever. After all, they still had Yiming and Yilin, and they had to think about them.

But thinking about how much he had gone to for her, her resentment softened, and she handed him a towel, saying, "Look at all that sweat on you, hurry up and wipe it off."

Upon hearing his wife's words, Qiu Jinzhou laughed like a fool: "My wife is still the best to me."

Old Master Xiao couldn't bear to watch any longer: "Alright, quickly take a seat."

In front of everyone, Grandpa Xiao briefly offered his blessings to the young couple, and then took the opportunity to say some words of encouragement to everyone before raising his glass: "Come, everyone, let's raise our glasses together and wish Chuxue and Yancheng a future of mutual respect, mutual help, and mutual tolerance, and a prosperous and happy life together."

After everyone responded, there was the clinking of bowls and chopsticks, because the food smelled so good that everyone had been craving it for a while.

Because the Fu family was going to split up their property that night, Chu Xue didn't plan to stay at her parents' house too late.

So after finishing her meal and cleaning up, Chu Xue took out the things she had brought: "Grandpa, this is what I prepared for you. It's a rare treat. Just a small cup a day is enough; too much won't do. This stuff is good for your health, so you can't overindulge."

The jar from Tongling was still sealed: "Is this wine?"

Chu Xue smiled and nodded: "Yes, this is ginseng wine brewed under someone else's guidance." Not only was Grandpa Xiao surprised, but everyone present was also somewhat surprised.

Although he hadn't tasted it yet, Grandpa Xiao was already very happy with this filial piety: "It's so thoughtful of you to still care about Grandpa's health."

Then Chu Xue handed the ginseng honey to Miao Yiqiu: "Auntie, this is for you. Take a small spoonful every morning and mix it with water to drink, and it will keep you healthy."

Everyone thought it was just ordinary honey, and they laughed at Chuxue's words.

Only Miao Yiqiu, who received the item, knew that it must be something good. She could smell a faint medicinal fragrance. Although she didn't know exactly what was in it, it was definitely not just simple honey.

She hadn't expected the child to prepare something special for her, and she felt a surge of emotion. It seemed that true kindness begets true kindness, and her sincere efforts had been worthwhile: "Thank you, thank you so much, Auntie likes it very much."

Afterwards, Chu Xue divided the things prepared by the Fu family into two: "Uncle, take this one back with you. It's a small token of our appreciation from Yan Cheng and me."

Before Xiao Changjiang could refuse, she said to his parents, "Mom and Dad, this is for you. Thank you for raising me."

Among them, only Xiao's mother was somewhat unhappy.

Chu Xue naturally saw through it, but she had done what she was supposed to do, so she didn't care what Chu Xue thought. After all, her uncle's family had put in a lot of effort to bring their family to Beijing, and her uncle was also entitled to a share of the courtyard. Not only did her uncle have no objections, but her aunt also showed no displeasure.

It turns out that my eldest cousin's wife had made some sarcastic remarks earlier, but my eldest cousin even went out of his way to apologize to them because of it.
