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

Chapter 1081 Why didn't you wait for me to pick you up?
Seeing Du Rubing clowning around, Fu Yancheng pulled Chu Xue aside and continued to introduce Tao Sujun: "You've met him before."

Chu Xue smiled slightly at Tao Sujun: "I'm so sorry to trouble you every time."

Tao Sujun is a rather calm person, which is probably typical of researchers: "Yancheng has helped me a lot too; good brothers should support each other."

Fu Yancheng raised his hand and punched Tao Sujun on the shoulder: "That's well said."

Finally, Zhang Jianshe was introduced: "You've met him before when we visited the railway families' home."

Fu Yancheng had taken her to the railway family compound under the pretext of finding Zhang Jianshe, his childhood friend and comrade-in-arms. However, she was there for Jiang Huiwen. Zhang Jianshe happened to be busy that day, so they only met once.

Chu Xue nodded to him: "Hello."

After introducing everyone, Fu Yancheng said, "Wife, I'll go with them to move the big items. Take your time and don't tire yourself out. I'll help you move the furniture after I'm done."

Chu Xue naturally didn't object: "I understand. Be careful when you're moving the large items."

They were all young and strong men, so moving those things was no problem for them. They made three more trips and finally managed to move everything over.

Chuxue didn't have much stuff to begin with, and the house had just been cleaned before, so they didn't need to clean the main house where they were going to stay; they just needed to put their things in place.

So while they were moving things, she made an excuse to go out for a while. When she came back, she was carrying only enough meat, eggs, fish and vegetables for one meal, as well as some simple seasonings. As for food, Fu Yancheng had already prepared some here beforehand.

Fu Yancheng and the others had just come out of the house when they saw her entering the courtyard. They quickly went up to greet her, saying, "Why didn't you wait for me to come and get you?"

Chu Xue thought to herself, "If I wait for you to pick me up, how am I supposed to take things out of my spatial storage?" She replied, "It's not too far away, and I don't have that many things, so I didn't wait for you."

Fu Yancheng took the things from her hands and then noticed the contents of the basket.

Chu Xue quickly spoke up before he could, "I was lucky today. Although there was no fatty meat left at the butcher shop, I managed to snag the last piece of pork belly and even bought some fish. Everyone worked hard moving today, so I'll cook a nice meal to treat you all." Zhang Jianshe laughed, "We heard from Brother Tao that you're a great cook, sister-in-law. We're so glad to finally get to taste your cooking today."

Fu Yancheng was taken aback when he heard this: "When have you ever eaten my wife's cooking?"

Tao Sujun laughed when he saw Fu Yancheng's expression: "You asked me to help you choose a place to drill a well before, and your wife gave me a few jars of mushroom sauce. It was delicious. Those few jars of mushroom sauce saved my stomach during those days at the reservoir construction site."

Fu Yancheng said with a hint of smugness, "I'm not bragging, but my wife's cooking is never bad."

When the others saw him like this, they thought: "Hey, here we go again. Now, whenever his wife is mentioned, he talks a lot."

Seeing that she was about to speak, Chu Xue quickly interrupted her, "Go get some water so everyone can wash their hands and rest for a while. I'll go cook."

Fu Yancheng glanced at the group.

Several people spoke up at the same time: "We can do it ourselves, there's no need for Brother Fu and Yancheng to fetch water for us."

After saying that, Zhang Jianshe picked up the enamel basin in the yard and filled it with water from the water pipe: "Come on, brothers, come and wash your hands."

After helping to put the ingredients into the kitchen, Fu Yancheng came out and washed his hands: "You guys take a break, I'll go help my wife prepare the ingredients."

The group waved at him simultaneously, saying impatiently, "Go, go, go quickly."

They weren't going to stand on ceremony with their good brothers; they were all eager to taste the food that Fu Yancheng had praised to the heavens.
