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

Chapter 51 Once you see it with your own eyes, you have to believe it whether you want to or not.

Liu Chuxue noticed that many people in the ward were paying attention to them: "I'll explain this to you in detail later. It's getting late, I'll go out and buy you some food."

Upon hearing this, Liu's mother quickly interjected, "It's fine to buy it for your father."

After thinking for a moment, he changed his mind: "I'll just buy the two of yours. There are two more steamed buns in the bundle. I'll eat those. There's no need to waste any more money."

Thinking of the news she got from the nurse that afternoon: "Chuxue, we didn't bring much money with us, so we have to be careful with our spending. I asked the nurse this afternoon, and I'm afraid we'll have to pay again tomorrow or the day after."

Liu Chuxue naturally knew her worries. She turned her head and glanced at the ward. Perhaps because they hadn't heard what she wanted to hear before, they weren't paying attention to them anymore and were all busy with their own things.

She squatted down beside the hospital bed, pulled Liu's mother closer, and then said in a voice that only the three of them could hear, "I have found a way to make money."

He pointed to the fishing gear on the ground: "I traded this blackfish I caught this afternoon with someone. With this fishing rod, I won't have to worry about not being able to exchange it for money."

Mr. and Mrs. Liu were momentarily stunned: "You know how to fish? How come we didn't know?"

Liu Chuxue whispered, "I originally wanted to familiarize myself with the surroundings first, but as soon as I stepped out of the hospital, I heard someone say that they were going to try their luck at the moat to see if they could catch any fish to cook for their hospitalized family members to supplement their nutrition."

Considering our family's situation, I decided to join in the fun.

Unexpectedly, I was lucky. When I got there, I found a fishing tackle made from firewood sticks that someone had discarded near the edge of the woods not far from the shore. I figured it had been abandoned because no fish had been caught. I decided to give it a try.

But to my utter surprise, it actually worked! I don't know if someone had baited the area beforehand, or if I just had incredible luck, but I never came back empty-handed, and the fish I caught were all quite large.

Mr. and Mrs. Liu were stunned, somewhat unable to believe what their daughter had said: "This...this..."

They didn't know what to say. If you didn't believe it, you had just witnessed your daughter exchanging fish for a lot of tickets. If you did believe it, it sounded so far-fetched. Liu Chuxue wasn't worried about whether they believed her or not. She could just take them there before going back to the countryside. Once they saw it with their own eyes, they would have to believe it whether they wanted to or not.

Only by making them accept that they are extraordinary can I act more effectively in the future.

Seeing that they still looked confused, she stood up with a smile: "Mom, you take care of Dad, I'll go out to buy food."

Before they could say anything, he took the only two rough porcelain bowls he had brought and said, "I'm going."

After going downstairs, I first went to the boiler room to wash the bowl inside and out, and then scalded it with boiling water. I went to the hospital canteen first, and saw that there was stewed meat with cabbage and vermicelli, so I didn't go to the state-run restaurants outside, thinking that it was better for them to keep a low profile.

He ordered a dish and six steamed buns made from two kinds of flour before returning to his ward.

As soon as you enter, the uncle on the hospital bed by the door speaks up: "Hey, the cafeteria has braised pork with cabbage today, you're really lucky."

He then said to his daughter, who was bringing him his hospital meal, "Erlan, could you get me one too?"

"I've already brought the food, just make do with it, why waste money?"

"Didn't you see there was meat in the vegetables? How can you say you wasted money? Hurry up, hurry up, or there won't be any soup left."

The family member named Erlan glared at Chuxue and her family unhappily, muttering in a very low voice, "Trying to put on a brave face and leading others astray, you'll eat your words."

Although her voice was very soft, Chu Xue's hearing was exceptional. She not only heard what she said clearly, but also saw her roll her eyes at her: Is this woman crazy?
