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

Chapter 989 I wouldn't come here without a reason.

On the way home, Fu Yancheng took Chuxue home. Chuxue suddenly remembered the reward she received before the New Year: "Yancheng, can you take me to see the courtyard that gave me the reward later?"

Fu Yancheng had actually wanted to ask her, but since she wouldn't say, he felt a little embarrassed to ask.

Hearing her mention the house, he asked, "So, are you satisfied with the reward?"

The reason she didn't open it in front of him that day was because she heard Chunxiao's footsteps; there were some things she didn't want too many people to know.

She really didn't expect the higher-ups to be so generous. In addition to the certificate, there was a bonus of two thousand yuan and a three-courtyard house. The house was quite large, so the case must be quite serious, otherwise they wouldn't have dared to publicly praise her.

However, she did prefer this tangible reward: "Hmm, I'm very satisfied, but I think it's a waste to leave such a big yard idle. I'm thinking of renting it out first."

After all, there are still a few years before the reform and opening up. The house is just sitting empty anyway, so it's better to rent it out and earn some rent first. Then, if we want to do something after the reform and opening up, we'll have a reason to raise funds.

Fu Yancheng naturally wouldn't object, after all, it was his wife's own thing: "Okay, then I'll go with you tomorrow. I happen to know someone from the local street office."

When he arrived at the Xiao family's house, Fu Yancheng simply greeted Xiao's mother and then left.

After he left, he didn't go straight home, but went to find Zhang Meng and told him what Chu Xue had said: "How was it?"

After a moment's thought, Zhang Meng said, "No problem, I'll make sure my sister-in-law is satisfied. I'll start preparing the materials after the fifth day of the Lunar New Year, and we'll start construction as soon as the weather warms up. It won't delay your move-in after the wedding."

Fu Yancheng tossed a pack of cigarettes he'd bought on the way to Zhang Meng: "Alright, then I'll leave everything to you."

Thinking of Chu Xue's words about wanting to rent her apartment, he couldn't help but turn to the bus stop again, thinking that he might as well visit that acquaintance from the neighborhood office in advance.

When I got off the bus, I went to the supply and marketing cooperative to buy some gifts before going to their door.

When the person opened the door and saw Fu Yancheng, they were still somewhat incredulous: "Little Fu, what brings you here?" Fu Yancheng smiled and said: "Hello, Auntie. I don't come here unless I have a reason. I've come to wish you and Uncle a Happy New Year."

Fang Ruyu's face was full of smiles: "Come in, come in, I haven't seen you in so long."

Hearing the commotion inside, Sun Bingzhu came out and said, "Oh, it's Yancheng! Come in quickly."

Fu Yancheng and his son Sun Guohua were comrades-in-arms. When they went on a mission together, it was Fu Yancheng who saved Sun Guohua. Otherwise, he would have been seriously injured, if not killed. Fu Yancheng personally brought him back to recuperate. After recovering from his injuries, Sun Guohua returned to his unit and was transferred to another military region a few years later.

He occasionally comes here on business and will stop by our house for a visit.

Sun Bingzhu looked Fu Yancheng up and down: "You're getting more and more energetic. I heard from Guohua that you've got a girlfriend?"

Fu Yancheng laughed: "Yes, the wedding date has been set. You two elders will be there to have a drink at the wedding."

"Then I definitely have to go. Which day is it?"

"On May Day."

"I was going to introduce you to my sister-in-law's daughter, but I couldn't catch you. I didn't expect you to have already set a wedding date."

"Xiao Fu, what brings you here today?"

Fu Yancheng only said that Chuxue had a house to rent, without explaining how the house came about. Of course, Sun Bingzhu and his wife did not ask any further questions.
