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

Chapter 783 This means Grandpa Xiao approves of me and doesn't treat me like an outsider.
He was still a little unaccustomed to being called "Chang Sheng" by his older brother.

Upon hearing that he would be working at the train station, his palms immediately started sweating: "I can't read many words, what if I embarrass you?"

Xiao Changjiang thought about it and agreed. After all, people would inevitably ask about train schedules on the platform. He thought for a moment and said, "Why don't you work in the road maintenance team for a while first? When you have time, I'll have your child teach you a few more words, and then I'll transfer you to the platform."

Chu Xue listened from the side and thought it made sense. As long as the job was relatively easy, one should at least know some commonly used characters. However, she did not interrupt.

Seeing that her younger brother didn't say anything, she said, "There's no rush to settle down. I'll think about it some more and see what other jobs might be suitable for you."

Han Sihai watched the two brothers interact and felt a sense of relief. He could finally give his mother an explanation when he returned home. As for Han Huaiming, he had given his heart to him, but now that things had turned out this way, he felt very complicated.

Han Huaiming's statement today made him realize that it wasn't because he felt guilty that he made those promises, but because he had no choice but to do so.

Now that he's in his forties, if he doesn't decisively promise compensation, Xiao Yude might just send his whole family back to Liushu Village if he gets upset. He's a pragmatic person.

Although the compensation was indeed substantial, they might still have a chance to turn things around if they stayed in Haishi.

Meanwhile, Han Huaiming was waiting for his train at the station with a sullen face.

He truly hadn't expected things to escalate to this point. He was furious with his biological parents, whom he had never met. If they were going to do it, why didn't they go all the way and instead create such a huge mess for themselves?

He had already figured it out on the way here: as long as the green hills remain, there will always be firewood to burn, so even though they were asking for an exorbitant price, he didn't object.

He knew that he only had one chance, otherwise his family might face utter ruin.

After all, he had enjoyed the benefits of others, and although he was unwilling, it was a fact.

Chu Xue chatted with her mother and Miao Yiqiu, her step-grandmother, for a while. Seeing that the two got along very well, she decided to go back to her workplace first. After all, she had skipped work today, and she couldn't go back on her word and let Sister Hong take the blame. She called Fu Yancheng to say goodbye to everyone, and the two prepared to leave.

Grandpa Xiao finally realized what was happening, and in his excitement, he missed the mealtime: "Alright, I won't keep you any longer. Yancheng, take Chuxue to find a place to eat something, and come over to the house early tonight."

Fu Yancheng smiled and agreed, in a very good mood. After all, it was a family dinner tonight, and his brother-in-law was also coming. Although he hadn't registered his marriage with Chuxue, the fact that he was invited to attend meant something.
This shows that the Xiao family also approves of him.

Chu Xue saw the smile on his lips: "Are you that happy?"

Fu Yancheng glanced around and said, "This means that Grandpa Xiao approves of me and doesn't treat me like an outsider."

It was past lunchtime, so Fu Yancheng told the Xiao family's driver, "Stop at the department store up ahead."

Then he said to Chuxue, "I'll go buy some bread and cakes later. You can have a bite when you get back to work. I'll come pick you up after get off work."

Chu Xue originally wanted to stop him, since she had food in her own space, but thinking that Fu Yancheng would definitely disagree, she let him go.

However, this person knew how to handle people; she only got one piece of cake, but bought a lot more bread: "I'll share some with the people in the office when I get back."

The car quickly arrived at the factory gate: "I'll wait for you here after get off work."

Chu Xue nodded to him, thanked the driver, and carried her things into the factory.

When she arrived at the office, Sister Hong had just come out of the section chief's office. Seeing her return, she raised the things in her hand and mouthed, "You've come back just in time."
