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

Chapter 1624 Someone Wants to Cause Trouble

A few days later, Chu Xue received a call from Fu's mother.

Only then did I learn from her that everyone except her eldest brother and sister-in-law had signed up: "Your second sister-in-law originally didn't want to sign up, but these past few days she probably saw that her classmates had all signed up, and she was afraid that she would regret it later, so she signed up as well."

Knowing that they had been busy looking for information these past few days, Chuxue said, "Mom, I have the information here. If they need it, I'll have someone send them two copies."

Upon hearing this, Madam Fu didn't mince words with Chu Xue: "You've given them all, do you have any left?"

Chu Xue gave a soft "hmm": "I saw a complete set at the recycling station before, so I brought it back. I didn't expect it to come in handy."

Mrs. Fu was surprised by this good news and smiled broadly: "You are so farsighted. You have no idea how much we've been fighting over a book and a document these past few days."

Fu's mother didn't want Chuxue to worry: "Since you have it, I won't stand on ceremony. I'll have them go get it right away."

Originally, Madam Fu wanted Hao Yanhong, who was unemployed, to go and collect it, but Zhang Yurong couldn't bear to let her come alone after she found out. So, a few hours later, Hao Yanhong and Zhang Yurong appeared together outside the family compound.

The two didn't stay long after they came in; they took their respective portions and left in a hurry.

After they left, someone spread the rumor that Deputy Regiment Commander Fu had books and review materials at home, which clearly indicated that someone was trying to cause trouble.

Chu Xue saw the courtyard full of people borrowing books and asked, "Who told you I had books and materials here?"

A plump military wife spoke up: "We're not entirely sure who sent the message first, but if you really have it, you can't refuse to lend it to us. After all, it concerns the children's future."

Hearing this, Chu Xue felt somewhat uncomfortable. She could understand their feelings, but these words were a bit like moral blackmail. Just as she was about to speak, she heard Fu Yancheng's voice coming in from outside: "Even if my wife has one, it's hers. Lending it is a favor, not lending it is her right. You come up here and immediately try to pin a label on my wife. This is not the attitude one should have when asking for help."

Although she was a little annoyed, everyone was saying the same thing. If she didn't lend it to him, Fu Yancheng would be affected, which was not what she wanted to see.

The main reason was that she had already kept two extra sets, just in case.

Originally, I was just thinking that if someone in the family compound wanted to borrow it, I would help them out if I could, but I never expected it to turn out like this.

Chu Xue pulled Fu Yancheng aside and cleared her throat: "Everyone, let me say a few words."

The people in the courtyard immediately fell silent: "I don't know who spread the rumor that I have books and documents at home, but it's true. However, I only have one extra set, so it's hard to say who I'll lend it to or not."

"How about this, everyone? I'll give this entire set of books and materials to the comrades from the trade union and the women's federation. They can decide how to arrange for borrowing and returning them."

She said this because she saw that people from the labor union and the women's federation were among them. She didn't want her home to be in chaos every day from now on, so it was best to hand it over to the government.

Upon hearing this, the union and women's federation members naturally did not refuse: "Alright, since Comrade Xiao trusts us, we will definitely be fair and just."

Chu Xue called Fu Yancheng into the house, and soon the two of them brought out a whole set of books and documents.

The two looked at the comrades from the trade union and the women's federation: "They're all here, please check them."
