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

Chapter 1790 Reminder
Without hesitation, after leaving the state-run restaurant and parting ways with her sister-in-law Guo Wenjing, she found a phone booth and made a call.

Because it was during class time, I had to call twice more before I finally got to see the person.

Zhang Yurong was surprised that Chu Xue would call her: "Is there something you need?"

Chu Xue didn't beat around the bush: "There's something I want to tell you."

Zhang Yurong frowned slightly, thinking it was about Fu Yanhong: "If it's about Fu Yanhong, then don't say anything."

"It's not about Third Brother, it's about you."

"My business?"

"Yes, my sister-in-law and I were having lunch at the state-run restaurant when we ran into Aunt Zhang."

Fearing Zhang Yurong might not understand, he simply said, "It's your mother."

"You mean you ran into my mom at the state-run restaurant?"

"Yes, I ran into an auntie."

After thinking for a moment, she told a white lie: "My friend happened to be in the private room upstairs. When I went up to say hello, I overheard the aunt's conversation with someone else. I thought about it and decided to tell you."

Zhang Yurong knew a little about Chuxue, and she wasn't one to meddle in other people's business, so she was afraid what Chuxue was about to say wasn't anything good: "Go on, tell me."

"I don't know much about your family's situation, but from your mother's tone, it seems like something happened to your younger brother, or you need to ask for help. Your mother has arranged a marriage for you with a man named Gao Jianbai. I don't know if you know him?"

Upon hearing Gao Jianbai's name, Zhang Yurong's expression turned quite unpleasant: "Thank you for telling me this."

Chu Xue coughed lightly: "They also mentioned Jin Yi. That man said he didn't want to raise someone else's child. After all, we're sisters-in-law, so I can't pretend I didn't hear it. But I didn't mean anything by it; I just wanted you to be mentally prepared in advance."

Zhang Yurong thanked Chu Xue, and the two hung up the phone. Thinking of her mother's call last night, Zhang Yurong's face was full of anger: So it was all for her brother's sake, trying to sell her off, and saying such nice things, all for her own good.

I've heard people say that Gao Jianbai looks gentle and refined, but he's actually a pervert. Whether my mother knows or not, she will never trust him again.

Chu Xue didn't go to her mother-in-law's workplace to look for her. Instead, she called her from there and said, "Mom, when I got home, none of you were there. I ran into my sister-in-law."

Madam Fu coughed lightly: "Your sister-in-law told you about what happened in Jinshi, right?"

Upon hearing this, I knew someone nearby must be saying, "Yes, I already said I'm going back to school."

Fu's mother replied, "Okay, you can focus on your studies. I'll call you if anything happens."

I didn't receive any calls in the next few days; the house there was almost finished being repaired.

After the first snowfall was inspected, she settled the wages with the craftsmen and prepared to pack her things and move over. After all, living closer meant she could sleep in a little longer.

In a good mood, she called Fu Yancheng, and his cheerful voice came from the other end: "Wife, why are you calling?"

"you guess."

"I guess my wife misses me and wants to hear my voice."

These words startled Chu Xue. This was a call that had been transferred, and she wasn't afraid of being laughed at: "What nonsense are you talking about? I called to tell you that the house is all set up and we're planning to move in tomorrow. Do you want to come back and take a look?"

Fu Yancheng burst out laughing: "I guessed it a long time ago. I was planning to take a day off and go back home anyway."
