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

Chapter 784 They Actually Became Sisters-in-Law

There were less than two hours left before I was supposed to get off work, but the section chief assigned me more work.

Hong Jie was worried that she wouldn't be able to finish by the time she got off work, but she didn't expect to see Chu Xue back as soon as she came out.

Before entering the office, Chu Xue put the things she was carrying into her spatial storage. After all, the timing wasn't right, and if she were to distribute them to everyone, it might cause unnecessary trouble.

After all, not everyone is considerate of others' feelings.

Everyone in the office was busy with their own things, except for Wan Xiaohui, who gave her a disapproving look.

Chu Xue naturally didn't take it to heart. Even if she knew that Sister Hong had paid for her personal business today, as long as Sister Hong didn't say anything and she didn't admit it, who could do anything to her? After all, she hadn't neglected her work.

Sister Hong handed her the documents in her hand: "You do part of it, I'll do part of it. Let's try to hand them over to the section chief before we leave work. The factory office needs them urgently."

After giving Chuxue a brief explanation, the two returned to their respective workstations.

Chu Xue was already good at these things, and Sister Hong was very open with her, so she was naturally very good at her work and felt no pressure at all.

Instead, Wan Xiaohui was called into the department head's office and scolded: "Wan Xiaohui, what's wrong with you? How many times have I told you? We are the finance department, and we can't tolerate the slightest mistake. But look at the part you're in charge of, can't you pay a little more attention?"

Wan Xiaohui was so ashamed and indignant by what was said that she had taken over her father's job in the department. In fact, her father had taught her a lot in private, but she might not be suitable for this job.

The section chief initially thought it was normal for her to make occasional mistakes since she had only been in the position for a short time. However, it had been several months and she was still making frequent mistakes, so he naturally couldn't tolerate it anymore.

Chu Xue worked quickly. After finishing her work and checking it several times to make sure there were no problems, she went over to help Sister Hong check what she had done. This saved a lot of time. After Sister Hong finished her part and checked it to be correct, she handed it directly to the section chief: "Your mentor is really good. Chu Xue is ready to graduate."

"That's true. She can handle the entire business we're in charge of now."

As she spoke, Sister Hong's face was full of pride. Unlike others, she never held back when teaching her apprentices. People say that teaching an apprentice can starve the master, but she thought differently. If everyone were like Wan Xiaohui, the master would eventually be exhausted to death. Fortunately, her master was her father; if it were anyone else, they would probably have collapsed.

Soon it was time to leave work.

Before she even left the office, Duan Ruirui came running up to her: "Why did you come here?"

Duan Ruirui laughed and said, "My boyfriend said we should have dinner together tonight, and he told me to come and call you."

Chu Xue then realized that Duan Ruirui's boyfriend was Xiao Wanpeng, the youngest son of her uncle's family.

Her eyes widened in surprise: if Duan Ruirui were to marry Xiao Wanpeng, she would become her sister-in-law; such a coincidence was truly extraordinary.

Suddenly, she asked, "Do you know why he invited you to dinner today?"

Duan Ruirui shook her head: "He just called me and said he'd like to invite you to dinner after get off work."

After saying that, she belatedly asked, "You knew?"

Chu Xue smiled mysteriously: "You'll know when you see him. Let's go."

As soon as the two stepped out of the office building, Duan Ruirui patted Chu Xue's arm: "By the way, Feng Xiaojuan's watch was actually found! We couldn't find it after all the commotion yesterday, but we found it in her pocket today. Isn't that strange?"

She then added, "Huang Aifang even went and scolded her, which made Feng Xiaojuan cry."
