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

Chapter 907 How can spending money on your wife be called wasting money?

When Duan Ruirui went downstairs, she saw Xiao Wanpeng standing there with a bag in his hand.

As soon as she came over, he said, "Rui Rui, it's almost Chinese New Year. I bought you a cashmere sweater. Do you like it?"

He was about to open the bag when Duan Ruirui stopped him: "You can keep the things for now. After all, we're not married yet, and I shouldn't keep accepting your things."

Upon hearing this, Xiao Wanpeng was somewhat startled: "Rui Rui, are you still angry?"

He knew that anyone would be upset if their wedding was canceled on time. He had seen Rui Rui these past few days, but she hadn't smiled at all, and he felt terrible about it.

But Third Brother didn't do it on purpose. When the call came from Beijing, the letter he wrote to Third Brother had only been sent a few days earlier, so he probably hadn't received it yet. But the date had already been set, and most importantly, Third Sister-in-law was pregnant, so they had to make do with what they had.

The reason for postponing the wedding to the second half of the year was that the family needed to save up some invoices first. The wedding supplies that had been prepared for them were also temporarily given to the third brother. He was very upset about this, but what could he do?

He and his third brother are twins. When the family needed someone to go to the countryside, his third brother resolutely stepped forward. How could he selfishly ignore it?

Duan Ruirui shook her head gently: "No, Third Brother and Third Sister-in-law didn't do it on purpose. It's just that they've been talked about a lot, which is a bit annoying."

Xiao Wanpeng was heartbroken: "How about I go with you and explain the situation?"

Duan Ruirui waved her hand and said, "No need, it will be fine in a few days."

Seeing that no one was around, Xiao Wanpeng reached out and took Duan Ruirui's hand: "Ruirui, I'm sorry you had to go through this. I'll treat you even better from now on."

Duan Ruirui didn't resent Xiao Wanpeng. After all, he had come over whenever he had time these past few days, and he never came empty-handed. She knew it wasn't what he wanted. "I'll remember that. If you treat me badly in the future, I'll definitely bring up the past." Seeing the smile on her face, Xiao Wanpeng finally breathed a sigh of relief. "Take the things and try them on to see if they fit. If they don't fit, I'll exchange them."

Duan Ruirui took out a cashmere sweater from her bag and held it up to herself: "No need to change, this color is very festive, I like it very much."

Xiao Wanpeng saw her blush and said, "I fell in love with this color at first sight, and I thought you would look beautiful in it."

She was still a young girl after all. Seeing that Xiao Wanpeng had been trying to make her happy these past few days, she softened and said, "Alright, I'm not angry anymore. Just don't waste money like that anymore."

Xiao Wanpeng laughed like a fool: "Buying things for my wife, how can that be called wasting money? I earn money precisely for you to spend. If you're happy, then the money is well spent."

After finishing her work, Chu Xue saw that it was almost time, told her section chief, and went downstairs.

When Duan Ruirui saw her come down, she knew that the siblings had something to talk about: "You two chat. I've been out for quite a while, and if I don't go back soon, people will start complaining."

After saying that, he picked up his things and ran away.

Xiao Wanpeng watched as the person turned the corner before turning his gaze away: "Chu Xue, you and Rui Rui have a good relationship, remember to say a good word for me."

Hearing this, Chu Xue teased, "Fourth Brother, what's the rush? Are you afraid Rui Rui will run away?"

Xiao Wanpeng rolled his eyes at her: "She really suffered. Third Brother's call came in a hurry. When my parents left, they took everything they could from the house. I didn't even dare to bring Rui Rui home, afraid that she would feel bad."
