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

Chapter 1293: What more can a husband ask for when he gets a wife like this?

She didn't plan to tell anyone about the space, including Fu Yancheng, so she had to be careful. After all, people's hearts couldn't withstand the test, and she didn't want to gamble.

The eggs still need to be dried in the sun for a while. After preparing the seasonings for the broth, I thought I should cook lunch first, since it wouldn't be right to wait for Fu Yancheng to come back and cook.

Thinking about how hard Fu Yancheng had worked on his mission these past few days, I wanted to make him something nice to nourish him.

Thinking of the sauce that Sister Tao gave me last night, and since I still have meat stored in my space, I was craving noodles with soybean paste.

The sauce was fried in the kitchen to avoid the aroma attracting unnecessary trouble.

After coming out of the space and opening the door, I casually took the eggs that were drying outside back to the corner of the kitchen, covered them with a steamer cloth, and then started to boil the brine for pickling the eggs.

Tao's sister-in-law went to the army supply point to buy things and saw that they had tofu for sale today. She wanted to tell Chuxue, but when she arrived at the gate, she was greeted by a strong smell of spices. She stood at the gate and called out, "Sister-in-law."

Chu Xue recognized Tao's voice and quickly came out of the kitchen: "Sister-in-law, come in quickly."

As Tao's wife walked into the yard, she smiled and said, "What are you tinkering with at home? It smells so good!"

Chu Xue wiped her hands with a towel hanging in the yard: "I went to Baifu Village the other day and exchanged some eggs. I also had some left at home, so I thought I'd pickle some salted eggs so I could have a different flavor every day. I'm making the brine right now."

"Do you know these things?"

Nowadays, every family is struggling financially, and very few people pickle salted eggs. Chu Xue then made up a lie: "When I was in high school, my classmate's father worked as a cook at a state-run canteen in the city. She would occasionally bring salted eggs to school, so I asked her how to make them. Now I want to try it out."

After saying that, he asked, "Sister-in-law, did you come here for something?"

Sister Tao then remembered her business and opened the lunchbox of pork kidneys she was carrying: "The supply point has tofu available today, so I came to let you know." Just as she finished speaking, she heard her daughter crying: "Oh dear, my Yurong is crying, I'm leaving now."

Before Chuxue could even reply, Sister Tao turned and ran out of the yard.

Chu Xue shook her head and chuckled, raising her hand to touch her belly, thinking that her child would probably look like this after birth.

Turning around, I went back to the kitchen, ladled out the cooked broth, and set it aside to cool before using.

Seeing that it was almost time, I quickly washed the pot and boiled water so that Fu Yancheng could have a ready-made meal when he got home.

Quickly knead the dough and let it rest, then go to the yard to pick some small green vegetables, wash them, and set them aside.

When Fu Yancheng returned from training, he called out as soon as he entered the courtyard, "Wife, I'm back."

I was going to ask you what you wanted for lunch, but after smelling the delicious aroma in the yard and seeing Chuxue standing at the kitchen door, I said, "Honey, didn't I leave you a note saying I'd cook lunch when I got back?"

Chu Xue said coquettishly, "I'm just worried about you."

Fu Yancheng was warmed by these words. He stepped forward and took Chu Xue's hand: "Wife, you are so good to me. But you are pregnant now. When I am not on a mission, I can do the housework."

Chu Xue knew what he was thinking: "It's a two-way street. You've been training very hard, and I don't have morning sickness now, so naturally I want to make things easier for you."

These words moved Fu Yancheng even more: With such a wife, what more could a husband ask for? He was truly blessed in his past life to be able to marry such a Xue'er in this life. He would definitely treat his wife even better in the future.
