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

Chapter 1290 Return from the Mission

Who wouldn't love such a sensible and adorable child? "Our Yushan children are so polite."

Before he could say anything more, he heard Fu Yancheng's voice from outside the gate: "Wife, I'm back."

Upon hearing the sound, everyone in the courtyard looked towards the main gate.

Then Fu Yancheng strode in.

Having assessed the situation in the courtyard, he walked towards Chuxue and asked, "Aunt Tao and Yushan are here too?"

He was about to say something when he heard Sister Tao ask, "Brother Fu, has my Luancheng come back too?"

Fu Yancheng nodded to her: "Yes, I'm back, but I'm still behind. I should be home soon."

As soon as Tao Yushan heard that his father was back, he shouted and tried to run outside.

Tao's wife quickly called out, "Little darling, be careful with the bowl in your hand."

That's right, the bowl of sauce meant for Mo Ruhua is in the little guy's hands.

His little gesture made everyone laugh.

Tao's wife took the bowl from her son's hand: "Let me carry it, it's really scary."

Fu Yancheng had already taken the bowl of sauce from Chu Xue's hands. Seeing this, he had no doubts: "I'll go clear the bowl out."

As she walked out with a smile, Sister Tao said, "Okay, I'll take it to Ruhua. I'll come back for the bowl."

After seeing Sister Tao off, Chu Xue followed her into the kitchen.

Fu Yancheng had already poured the sauce into his own bowl and was washing Tao's wife's bowl.

Chu Xue hugged him from behind: "Are you hurt?"

Fu Yancheng rubbed his face against Chu Xue's head: "No, if you're worried, I'll let you check it yourself in a bit."

"How have you been at home these past few days? Have you missed me?" Chu Xue pressed her forehead against Fu Yancheng's back: "Keep your voice down."

Fu Yancheng laughed: "Good, good, good."

After washing the dishes, he turned around and hugged her, asking, "Have you been experiencing morning sickness these past few days?"

A few days ago, Deputy Battalion Commander Tao mentioned that when his wife was pregnant, she vomited so much that she felt dizzy and faint. He was worried that his wife would have morning sickness when he wasn't around.

Chu Xue knew he was worried about her: "Don't worry, apart from being a little sleepy and gagging a bit when washing up in the morning, I'm fine the rest of the time."

Hearing Tao's voice from next door, Chu Xue patted Fu Yancheng's arm: "I'll take the bowl out. There's hot water in the thermos. Wash up and get ready to eat."

Upon hearing this, Fu Yancheng smiled and said, "I smelled the delicious aroma as soon as I entered the courtyard. What delicious food have you made?"

Fu Yancheng did not wash up first, but left the courtyard with Chu Xue. After handing the bowl to Sister Tao and exchanging a few more pleasantries, he half-embraced her and went back to the kitchen.

Seeing the food on the stove, he said, "Wife, you've worked hard these past few days. From now on, when I'm not on a mission, you can leave all the housework to me."

Chu Xue didn't refuse; after all, men shouldn't be spoiled, and they should be given a chance to prove themselves: "Okay."

Fu Yancheng settled the person on a rocking chair by the kitchen door, then took a thermos to the pool in the yard to wash up, glancing back every now and then.

The young couple would occasionally exchange glances, and the air seemed to be filled with sweetness.

Fu Yancheng brought out the food: "Wife, would you like to eat some more with me?"

Chu Xue waved her hand: "I just ate before you came back."

Thinking about this mission, he couldn't help but feel a chill. Fortunately, Chu Xue noticed something was wrong, and his father-in-law was quite sensible. Although he got a beating, it was better than getting deeper and deeper into trouble with those people.

If Chu Xue hadn't asked him to investigate his father-in-law's coworker, he wouldn't have discovered that the man had been recruited by someone behind him. The people behind him were planning to detonate explosives at the steel mill and power plant simultaneously in an attempt to cause sabotage, panic, and create conflict.
