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

Chapter 888 Procurement
When I came back home for the Spring Festival last year, my mother-in-law said that she would definitely try to find a way to get a permit to return to the city by the end of the year.

If the couple doesn't fight for it, and the spot is given to their younger sister, wouldn't they have to stay in the countryside again?

Looking at her son, who was already asleep in her brother-in-law's arms, a smile involuntarily appeared on her lips: her son was their greatest support, and she refused to believe that an aunt could compete with her nephew.

Although Mr. Fu hadn't driven himself in a long time, today was a private matter for his family. He could borrow a car from his workplace, but he couldn't lend it to someone else.

Besides, who knows what kind of trouble his second son and his wife will cause this time? He doesn't want outsiders to laugh at his family.

Seeing his grandson asleep on his eldest son, he said, "Yanming, Xiaoze is asleep. Lay him down so he's more comfortable."

Fu Yanming looked and it was true: "This kid was just squirming in my arms a moment ago, and he's already asleep in no time."

He carefully laid the person flat in his arms, and even unbuttoned his own coat, using the corner of the coat to cover his nephew.

When the car arrived at the hospital, not only were there doctors that Fu Yancheng knew waiting there, but Fu's mother had also taken leave to wait there.

As soon as he saw the car, he went up to it and said, "Oh dear, you're finally back! Which leg did you hurt?"

Seeing her son carrying the person down, and noticing that her second daughter-in-law didn't show much pain, she felt a sense of relief.

However, she was even more displeased with her second son and his wife. The New Year was almost here, couldn't they just stop making a fuss? When her second son looked over, she glared at him.

Making such a fuss, borrowing a car, asking for leave—if outsiders knew they were just making a fuss, who knows what kind of rumors would spread: "Didn't they say your wife was seriously injured and needed to go back to the city hospital for surgery?"

Fu Yanwei's face flushed: "That's what the barefoot doctor said. Yan Hong fainted from the pain at the time, so naturally I didn't dare to delay." Fu's father saw the medical cart coming over: "Alright, we'll talk about everything after the examination."

On the other side, Chu Xue and the others were awakened by the knocking on the door.

Chu Xue put on her clothes and went to the door first. Seeing the person outside, she asked, "Brother Xu, what's the matter?"

Seeing her sleepy face, Xu Chengkun hesitated but still said, "It's been cloudy outside. The captain said we only have this morning and have to return this afternoon."

Chu Xue naturally understood what the captain meant and wanted to leave Inner Mongolia as soon as possible to avoid being trapped here: "Okay, we'll be there soon."

The other two people in the room also heard Xu Chengkun's words. Without even opening their eyes, they sat up and put on their coats.

Chu Xue thought about the purpose of her visit. If the cattle and sheep hadn't been slaughtered before, Captain Ma would probably have returned by now.

Since there wasn't enough time to find a local slaughterhouse to slaughter the cattle and sheep they brought back yesterday, the same few people who stayed behind were responsible for loading the cattle and sheep they had ordered here onto the truck, while the rest of the people went to the nearby market to see if there was anything they needed.

To save time, everyone agreed to split up, since they were all in the same market and nothing would happen.

However, many things still require receipts. Chu Xue had collected a lot of receipts from several stores beforehand, and to avoid being seen by others, she deliberately went to the other side before starting to buy them.

Besides buying a lot of milk tofu and beef jerky, she also bought three goat skins. When she came out, she specially carried a large cloth bag. When she bought them, she made sure they were divided into two portions, one large and one small. She turned around and found a place to put the large portion into her spatial storage, leaving only the small portion in the open.
