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

Chapter 848 What are you yelling about?
Not long after she arrived at the agreed location, a meat processing plant truck pulled up.

This time, Aunt Wu wasn't in the car; instead, a young woman was sitting there. However, she recognized the driver: "Master Dou, thank you for your help today."

Before the driver could even speak, the young woman said, "Since you know it's troublesome, why did you still ask, making Master Dou suffer like this?"

Chu Xue frowned and looked at her: "Master Dou hasn't said a word, why are you making such a fuss?"

Master Dou knew that Chu Xue's family was not simple, and that they always showed some appreciation when he hitched a ride. To be honest, they were quite happy to accept, since it was just a matter of turning the gas pedal and going around the block. Last time, a part in his car broke down, and he couldn't buy a replacement in a short time. It was the young lady who found someone at the steel mill to help him. "Little Song, Comrade Chu Xue helped me before. Besides, it's just a matter of going along the way. There's no need to feel guilty."

The girl, nicknamed Xiao Song, never expected that standing up for Master Dou would result in her being lectured: "Master Dou..."

She was about to say something more when Master Dou interrupted her: "Alright, Xiao Song, just do your job well, you don't need to worry about anything else."

Miss Song immediately felt embarrassed, gave a soft "humph," and turned her face away.

While driving, Master Dou explained to Chuxue, "Chuxue, she's only been with the company for a few days, don't take it to heart."

Chu Xue was just hitching a ride with someone else, and as long as she didn't go too far, she didn't want to cause trouble: "So you're a new employee, I was wondering why."

With just two simple sentences, Xiao Song felt slighted. She wanted to say something more, but seeing that Chu Xue had already turned her face away and didn't intend to pay any more attention to her, she could only remain silent.

After all, as Master Dou said, she was just a newcomer to the factory and really didn't dare to cause any trouble.

Along the way, Master Dou and Chu Xue chatted intermittently. From him, Chu Xue learned that Aunt Wu had taken leave because her eldest son had fallen and been hospitalized a few days ago, so this new young girl had taken over the ride.

Aunt Wu was a nice person, so she inquired a bit more and found out which hospital she was hospitalized in. She thought she would find some time to visit her later. After all, relationships are reciprocal; if she didn't know, she wouldn't mind, but now that she knew, she naturally had to make a trip. It's never wrong to be polite, is it?

The car happened to be passing by Guangming Village when Chuxue got out at the intersection: "Master Dou, my sister is right behind us. If you come out and honk the horn, I'll hear you."

Master Dou replied, "Okay."

Chu Xue got off the car with her prepared things and heard the girl surnamed Song say, "We can't stay at the farm for long, so don't dawdle and delay our return to the city."

Seeing her awkward expression, Chu Xue smiled and said, "Thanks for reminding me."

The girl didn't expect Chu Xue to react this way, and immediately turned her head to the other side.

After the car drove away, she quickly left the spot as well, since the dust kicked up by the car was too much, and if she didn't leave quickly, she would be affected.

To her surprise, she saw a crowd gathered at the gate of her elder sister's house when she was still some distance away from the Qiu family's house. Worried that something had happened to her sister, she ran over there as fast as she could.

When they arrived at the scene, they pulled over a woman who was watching and handed her a piece of fruit candy: "Auntie, what happened?"

When the woman saw the candy in Chuxue's hand, she immediately smiled and said, "Oh dear, it's all because Qiu Shaocheng's wife's family has a clueless sister-in-law. A few days ago, she went back to help with her younger brother's wedding and didn't take care of the baby or express milk in time. When she came back after finishing her brother's wedding, she found that her milk had dried up."
