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

Chapter 1593 Your relationship as a couple is so good, I can't help but envy it.

Tao's sister-in-law smiled as she approached Chuxue: "Everyone in the small square outside is talking about you."

Chu Xue immediately understood what she was talking about, but pretended not to know and asked, "What did she say about me?"

Tao's wife squatted down and teased the younger children, saying, "Everyone's saying you're smart, praising your ability, and saying your Deputy Regiment Commander Fu is so lucky."

Chu Xue smiled and replied, "Fu Yancheng is indeed blessed."

Aunt Wei and Sister Tao both burst out laughing.

Sister Tao looked up and asked, "When are you going back to the city?"

Chu Xue had told her about Du Juan's upcoming wedding: "I'll go back tomorrow and see if there's anything else I can help with."

"Is your Deputy Regiment Commander Fu going back tomorrow too?"

Chu Xue nodded: "Yes, he came back from a mission a few days ago and hasn't rested since. He's saving up his vacation time to go back with us for the wedding."

"I'm not trying to be mean, but your Deputy Regiment Commander Fu is really good to you. He truly cares about you and your family."

Hearing this, Chu Xue's eyes lit up with laughter: "Look at what you're saying, sister-in-law, it's like Deputy Battalion Commander Tao is treating you badly?"

Tao's wife patted Chuxue on the shoulder: "Why did you bring up my husband? He's nothing like your husband. He comes home and just lies there all day. He's not bad to me and the two kids, but he never lifts a finger to do housework when he's home."

"Your Deputy Regiment Commander Fu is different. Even with Aunt Wei's help, I've seen him wash diapers several times, and he didn't show the slightest resistance; he was all smiles."

“Those belong to his son and daughter, it’s only natural for him to wash them.”

As the two were talking, Fu Yancheng entered the courtyard: "What do you mean by 'it's only natural'?"

Chu Xue turned around and laughed: "Sister Tao is praising you. She said she saw you helping to wash diapers. I said it's only natural for you to wash them. Do you have any objections to what I said?" Fu Yancheng smiled and walked to Chu Xue's side: "A wife is meant to be cherished. If I can help with pregnancy and childbirth, I would love to take your place, let alone help wash diapers."

Tao's wife laughed: "You two have such a good relationship, I can't help but envy you."

Chu Xue naturally understood what she meant by "envy is not possible": In this day and age, even if it's not an arranged marriage, most people get married after only meeting a few times. To put it bluntly, it's all about luck.

He and Fu Yancheng were in a free-love relationship, and they dated for quite a while before settling down, so their relationship was naturally different.

Tao's wife stood up: "My husband will probably be back soon. I steamed a pot of steamed cakes and mixed a pot of cold spinach salad. I need to go back and make some soup."

Chu Xue looked at Fu Yancheng: "Why are you back so early today?"

Fu Yancheng laughed: "I just got back from a meeting in the city. It was almost time, so I came back first."

Seeing that Sister Tao had already left the courtyard, he took out a brown paper bag from his briefcase: "What's this?"

Fu Yancheng gestured for her to open it and take a look.

Chu Xue has a keen sense of smell. In fact, as soon as she asked the question, she smelled a familiar scent. In her past life, she loved eating braised pork belly with preserved mustard greens. She had only mentioned it casually a few days ago, but today he gave her a surprise: "Where did this come from?"

Things are different now than in later years, where you can buy them anywhere, or online if necessary. She was genuinely curious about where he got them.

Fu Yancheng coughed lightly: "I have a classmate whose wife is Hakka. Come and try it, is it the taste you've been longing for?"

Chu Xue felt a warmth in her heart. This man was truly something; he always did more than he said, which deeply moved her.
