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

Chapter 1586 How old are you? Quickly wipe away your tears.
Du Juan's eyes widened: "But even if I have money, I don't have tickets."

Chu Xue knew she had misunderstood, and said with a smile, "This sewing machine is a dowry from your aunt."

Upon hearing her words, Du Juan felt a lump in her throat, and tears welled up in her eyes.

She knew that when her eldest cousin got married, her family only gave her two quilts as a dowry. Later, her second cousin became successful and, fearing that her older sister would have a hard time in her husband's family, gave her a larger dowry.

When my second cousin got married, all the things she brought as part of her dowry were earned by her own abilities.

Thinking of this, she quickly waved her hand: "No, no, I don't want to."

My aunt's two daughters didn't contribute any money to their weddings, so how could she, as their niece, possibly ask for a dowry?

Chu Xue knew what Du Juan was thinking: "Alright, don't overthink it. I know what you're thinking, but times have changed. When my eldest sister got married, the family hadn't divided the property yet, so my parents couldn't make the decision. It was already good enough that they gave us two quilts."

When I got married, your brother-in-law bought all the necessary items, so there was no need for the family to buy anything else. This is a token of your aunt and uncle's affection; please accept it without worry.

Xia Qiu handed over a handkerchief: "You're so old, quickly wipe your tears."

Du Juan hugged Xia Qiu tightly: "I'm just touched."

Seeing her like this, Chu Xue laughed: "Alright, time is tight and the task is heavy, let's get moving, or the little one at home will probably start making a fuss."

I had already made a list before I came, so the shopping was quick.

A washbasin, a thermos, a mirror, face cream, toothpaste, a toothbrush, and a towel were prepared. Then, they went to the fabric counter and bought fabric for two sets of clothes. The task of making the clothes was naturally handed over to Xia Qiu, who was skilled with her hands.

Afterwards, I went straight to the sewing machine counter and bought a Peony brand sewing machine amidst the envious glances of others.

Having bought almost everything, I paid 50 cents to have the department store porter deliver the sewing machine to my home a little later.

After they arrived home, Xiao's mother, no longer paying attention to her son, went to look through the things they had bought. Reaching the very end, she looked up at the three of them and asked, "Is this all?"

Xia Qiu didn't react immediately: "What else is missing?"

Xiao's mother ignored her eldest daughter and looked at Chuxue.

Chu Xue took her youngest son from Fu Yancheng's arms: "The children are hungry. I'll go feed them first, and we'll talk when my dad comes back."

When Xiao's mother saw that Chuxue had already taken the child back into the house, she happened to hear Shitou crying, so she didn't bother to ask any questions.

After entering the house, Chu Xue fed Kang Bao first, then called Fu Yancheng in and asked him to bring Le Bao in.

The two younger ones have smaller appetites, so Chuxue usually feeds them first and then feeds Fubao last. If he's not full, she'll make him some formula.

No sooner had she brought Fu Bao out than Fu Yancheng, worried that his older son wasn't getting enough to eat, came over with a bottle of freshly prepared milk.

Chu Xue naturally handed Fu Bao to her, went back inside to find paper and pen, sketched out two design drafts, and then came out of the yard: "Sister, take a look at this."

Xia Qiu took the paper, her eyes immediately lighting up: "Sis, how did you come up with this? This dress will definitely look amazing!"

Hearing her older sister's words, Chunxiao, who had just entered the courtyard, came over and said, "This is so beautiful! No, older sister, I want one too! I want a dress like this too!"

Upon hearing this, Du Juan suggested, "How about we each wear one?"

Just then, Xiao's mother came over: "What do you mean one person, one piece? People always have good things in pairs. These cloth coupons were sent by the Jiang family. Don't listen to Chunxiao's fuss."

　Yuanzi wishes everyone a Happy New Year, a prosperous Year of the Horse, and all your dreams come true.
