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

Chapter 196 Support
When they were in Willow Village, he wanted to stand up for Chuxue, but Chuxue simply wouldn't give him the chance.

Chu Xue asked him to bring her sister back, and another purpose was naturally to support her sister. Since the topic had been brought to him today, he naturally had to do something.

As she handed out the fish, she glanced up at the Qiu family.

He was a veteran of the battlefield; once he unleashed his aura, not only the women of the Qiu family, but even the men of the Qiu family felt immense pressure.

Grandma Qiu, being an old woman with a sharp mind, quickly forced herself to step forward and said, "Comrade, thank you for bringing my grandson and granddaughter-in-law back. Please come in, have a glass of water, and rest your feet."

The Qiu family members then realized what was happening, and Qiu's mother quickly chimed in, "Yes, yes, let's go inside and rest for a while."

Fu Yancheng handed the fish to Qiu Shaofeng: "No need. Once the person is safely delivered, my mission is complete. I still have to rush back to the city, or I'll have to travel through the night."

After saying that, he looked at Xia Qiu and said, "Sister, Chu Xue asked me to do something, and I will take care of it as soon as possible. I will have her deliver it to you then."

Qiu Shaofeng looked bewildered and asked in a low voice, "What is it?"

In fact, Xia Qiu didn't know either. But she was smart. When she saw Fu Yancheng's gaze sweeping over the Qiu family, she understood that he had heard those words and was standing up for his sister. So she cooperated and said, "Thank you so much."

Qiu Shaofeng looked at his wife without saying anything, and then looked at Qiu Shaofeng.

Qiu Shaofeng slightly curled his lips and lowered his voice a little, but it was enough for the Qiu family to hear: "Chu Xue said that her sister has lost a lot of weight and is now pregnant, so she needs to eat well and asked me to find some milk powder coupons for her."

Xia Qiu was stunned when she heard this. She thought it was just a charade, but she didn't expect her sister to actually ask for help. She was immediately embarrassed.

Fu Yancheng naturally noticed her unease: "Sister, it's no trouble. I lent out quite a few milk powder coupons before, so it's good to get them back."

Hearing Fu Yancheng's words, everyone became even more curious about his identity, and they were all eager to try their luck.

Unfortunately, Fu Yancheng didn't give them a chance. After greeting Qiu's great-grandmother and mother, he said, "Sister, brother-in-law, I'll be leaving now."

When Chu Xue left the Liu family, she told them not to linger too long, but the couple naturally didn't try to stop her: "Drive slowly on the road."

After Fu Yancheng responded, he turned and got into the car. As the car drove away, the onlookers all crowded around: "Xia Qiu, is your sister's boyfriend from the city?"

Since Chu Xue had already asked him to come and see someone off, Xia Qiu felt there was nothing he couldn't say: "Yes."

"What does he do for a living?"

As Xia Qiu walked towards the courtyard gate, she replied, "He's a soldier in the army."

However, she did not mention Fu Yancheng's position.

Qiu Shaofeng, worried that Xia Qiu might get jostled, quickly protected her as they prepared to enter the courtyard: "Dear uncles and aunts, let's put our things down first, and we'll talk later."

Some gossipy people even followed them into the courtyard.

Zhang Shanmei, the second daughter-in-law of the eldest son's family, kept staring at the bundle that her younger brother-in-law Qiu Shaofeng had taken over. After they entered the courtyard, she said, "Oh, third sister-in-law, your family is really good to you. What's in this bundle? Let us see."

Not to mention Xia Qiu, even Qiu Shaofeng found his second sister-in-law annoying. He said in an unfriendly tone, "Second sister-in-law has brought back things from her parents' home before, but she didn't show them to us. It's not appropriate for her to make an exception for us."

After saying that, he pulled Xia Qiu into the house: "My Xia Qiu is tired and needs to rest."

Qiu's mother followed behind and asked, "Shaofeng, have you eaten yet?"

Before entering the room, Qiu Shaofeng said, "Mom, we've eaten and are back. Don't worry about us, go and eat."

Zhang Shanmei watched as Qiu Shaofeng carried the bundle back into the house, and stomped her foot angrily, saying, "So stingy, who cares?"

Grandma Qiu was already angry, and when she heard this, she said, "Shaohu, keep your wife in check. All she does all day is gossip and eye what other people have. She can't control her mouth. If you don't stop her, she might cause trouble one day. Don't blame the family."

Qiu Shaohu knew his wife very well, but he wanted her uncle, who was a director, to arrange a job for her, so he had been putting up with it. Today, his great-grandmother called him out in front of the family, and he naturally felt embarrassed: "Zhang Shanmei, you better shut up and don't force me to take action against you."
