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

Chapter 1563 Fu Yanwan's Accident

Chu Xue apologized, but it's because everyone in the family compound has been saying she's a spendthrift.

They say things like, "They always make three cribs at once, when one would have been enough. What a waste!"

Some even said, 'Fu Yancheng married such a spendthrift wife; no matter how much salary he earns, it's not enough for her to squander. He's a bad husband.'

The main problem is that the topic hasn't cooled down yet. If I do anything else, I'm afraid some busybody will come knocking on my door, and I'll inevitably get a lecture from her.

Fu Yancheng flicked Chu Xue on the forehead: "Just say what you have to say. You don't need to be polite with your man."

Chu Xue handed over the sketch she had drawn in advance: "Help me make a stroller like this, and make it a little bigger so that the three of them can sit down."

She had decided that this stroller was meant to free up her hands; she could just put everything in it.

Fu Yancheng looked at the sketch and said, "How did you come up with such a novel idea?"

A car with three small seats inside, a sunshade, and thin, firm cushions on the sides so that if the children fall asleep, the cushions can be laid on top and they can lie down.

Fu Yancheng looked at it again and again, and the two discussed it for a while, making a few changes: "Okay, I promise it won't stop you from going out for a stroll when the weather gets warmer."

They couldn't wait to eat: "You guys eat, don't wait for me."

Chu Xue stopped them, saying, "Let's eat first, then we'll go."

Fu Yancheng flicked a sketch in his hand: "I'm afraid if I go too late, I won't be able to catch anyone. I'll eat when I get back."

Well, seeing him leave, Chu Xue felt a little regretful. Knowing he would act this way, she should have waited until after dinner to bring it up with him.

When Fu Yancheng returned, it was already completely dark. He had just finished eating when he heard someone outside calling, "Deputy Regiment Commander Fu, you have a phone call."

The couple exchanged a glance. At this hour, who could have made that call?

Fu Yancheng didn't delay: "Wife, you're home, I'll come pick you up." He ran to answer the phone: "Hello, this is Fu Yancheng, who is this?"

The voice of Fu's mother, choked with sobs, came from the other end of the phone: "Fourth son, Xiao Wan has had an accident. She's in the hospital."

Fu Yancheng's forehead instantly broke out in a cold sweat: "What happened?"

Fu's mother's voice was trembling badly: "Come here first, and we'll talk in detail later."

Fu Yancheng didn't even have time to go back and tell Chu Xue. He said to the young soldier at the gate, "Could you please go to my house again and tell my wife that I have to go back to the city for something? I'll call her again first thing tomorrow morning and tell her not to worry."

The reason I said that was because I was afraid she would worry. I didn't know what was going on over there, and I didn't know if I would be able to call her. It would be better to call her first thing tomorrow morning to explain.

Before the young soldier could respond, he ran out.

After asking for leave from the regimental headquarters and borrowing a car, I sped off.

When Chu Xue received the message from the young soldier, she felt a surge of unease. She didn't know who had gotten into trouble, but the fact that he was rushing to the city meant that something serious must have happened.

When Fu Yancheng arrived at the hospital, all the family members who could come were outside the emergency room: "Mom and Dad, what happened? How did Xiaowan end up in the hospital?"

At this moment, Fu's mother was too anxious to explain to him and kept staring at the light on in the operating room.

It was the eldest brother, Fu Yanming, who pulled the man aside: "There was an accident at the ticket gate that Xiaowan was in charge of today. A man didn't have a ticket, but he insisted on going in, saying that his wife and son were trying to run away, and he wanted to go in to find them."

Without a ticket, Xiao Wan naturally couldn't let the man in. Besides, a leader was coming down to inspect today, and the man was nearby. But the man wouldn't listen at all and rushed in despite Xiao Wan's attempts to stop him.

But his charge knocked Xiao Wan down.
