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

Chapter 825 So that’s it
Before Old Master Guo could say anything, someone chimed in, "I have meat coupons here, how about we trade them for fish?"

Chu Xue felt that the voice sounded familiar, so she looked in the direction of the sound.

Upon closer inspection, it turned out to be the same person who had led the group that had tried to rob her earlier: "It's you."

The man coughed lightly: "Yes, it's me."

Looking at the clothes he was wearing, I asked, "Did you go to the army?"

The man nodded emphatically: "Yes."

Chu Xue suddenly realized something: "Could it be because of what I said that day?"

Grandpa Guo suddenly realized something: "So that's how it is. Lu Weijun, could it be that Chuxue was right after all?"

Suddenly realizing something, he slapped his thigh and exclaimed, "You little rascal, I knew it! No matter how I tried to persuade you, you wouldn't listen. How come you suddenly understood?"

Lu Weijun didn't want to admit it, but Old Master Guo directly exposed his past.

Not wanting to continue the conversation, he changed the subject back to the previous one: "Comrade, what do you think of my suggestion?"

Chu Xue didn't want to linger any longer: "How many do you want to exchange?"

Lu Weijun took out some banknotes from his jacket pocket: "I have some other military banknotes here, see if there's anything you need."

Chu Xue glanced at him, about to say something.

Then Lu Weijun said, "I was just thinking of treating everyone. The more people there are, the more we can exchange."

Since they've already said that, why should I be coy? "Okay, you can change it as you see fit, just leave me one bucket."

Lu Weijun secretly breathed a sigh of relief and handed all the votes to Chuxue: "You can choose whichever you like."

Chu Xue took it and saw that it contained cloth coupons, oil coupons, meat coupons, and most of all industrial coupons. She wondered how this person could have so many industrial coupons. It was like a pillow coming to someone who was sleepy.

A few days ago, Duan Ruirui asked her to go to the department store to buy yarn. She also mentioned that she wanted to exchange some industrial vouchers with someone, since she had collected the assets of those stores before, and there weren't many industrial vouchers left. This was perfect.

Grandpa Guo smiled, wondering if the boy had finally seen the light. Soon, the two had exchanged the fish.

Lu Weijun looked at the bucket and said, "Comrade Chuxue, I don't have any tools to hold fish. Could you lend me the bucket? Give me your address and I'll bring it to you later."

Chu Xue didn't think much of it. Seeing that his hands were empty, she nodded and said, "That's fine too."

She didn't want outsiders to know her home address, so she whispered her work address.

Seeing that they agreed, Grandpa Guo smiled and said, "Little Chuxue, I wonder if you can part with this big fish of yours?"

Upon hearing this, Chu Xue readily gave the snowflakes to Grandpa Guo.

Old Master Guo didn't have many meat coupons or industrial vouchers, but he did have several liquor coupons.

Chu Xue was more than willing to agree; she had always wanted to hoard Moutai, and the more liquor coupons she had, the better.

After the transaction ended happily, Chu Xue hummed a song and walked back in a good mood. Because exchanging fish had taken some time, she couldn't help but speed up her pedaling.

As soon as I got home, I quickly unloaded the bucket from the back of the car: "Mom, I've put the fish in the kitchen for you. It's getting late, so I won't help you with the preparation. I have to go now."

Seeing her anxious, Zhao Lamei quickly packed a sugar triangle, an egg, and three pieces of pickled vegetables into her bag: "Take this with you and eat it when you have time. You can't work on an empty stomach."

Chu Xue accepted it: "Thank you, Mom."

He ran inside, took out his bag, and packed his breakfast inside.

As he pushed the stroller out, he asked, "Mom, where's my grandpa?"

Zhao Lamei watched her walk out: "I was worried about your aunt, so I went to the hospital after dinner."

She then added, "Your dad is going to visit your aunt, they're going together, so don't worry."
