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

Chapter 232 If you can't speak, then don't speak.
The reason they followed Ding Zhiqing's request was because they didn't want to become the village's "inverted households" (households with income exceeding income).

Although the village officials said they could pay the medical expenses for the elderly couple first, they would ultimately have to bear the cost themselves. In addition, the health center said that the money they had paid before had been used up and asked them to pay more.

Having no other choice, they had to approach Ding, the educated youth.

In order to get through the crisis, the brothers decided to temporarily not divide the house taken from the second branch, but to rent it to Ding Zhiqing and collect some rent to relieve their immediate needs.

Of course, they also made a request to Ding Surong, which was that the rent had to be paid for at least a year, at three yuan a month, or thirty-six yuan a year.

They built their courtyard wall without affecting Chuxue's family in the slightest.

Most of the items here have been delivered to the new home.

The next morning, Chu Xue got up early: "Dad, I'm going to the North Suburb Farm today to inform my sister and brother-in-law to come back for the housewarming party on the sixth day of the new year."

Thinking of something, she said, "Mom, go and see Aunt Wu in the next village. See if she has time on the sixth day of the Lunar New Year. Ask her to come over and help prepare the feast."

Liu's mother nodded in agreement: "Okay, I'll go as soon as I'm done with my work."

Liu's mother was very happy to be able to move out of the old house. Although she handed over the house so easily, she felt less upset thinking about the worry-free days ahead.

Chu Xue also gave Liu's father some instructions: "Dad, today you should inform the people in the village you know well, and also calculate how many tables we need to set up. You should also tell those people that you can borrow our plates and bowls."

We had originally planned to go back to school on Monday, but Chuxue decided to wait until after she finished moving before going.

After saying goodbye to her family, Chu Xue shouldered her basket and headed up the mountain.

She walked quickly, and when she was almost at the North Suburb Farm, she found a secluded spot, and after confirming that no one was around, she went straight into her spatial dimension.

The vegetables and fruits in the field were already quite ripe, so I couldn't go empty-handed. I picked six melons and put them in my basket. Then I saw that the apricots on the apricot tree weren't ripe yet, but they were edible. Thinking that my sister was pregnant, I figured she might like them, so I took quite a few as well. I also grabbed a pheasant and carried it with me before leaving the space.

It was such a coincidence that when she arrived at the Qiu family's house, there was a happy occasion. Xia Qiu's brother-in-law was looking for a house, and the woman was visiting to see the property.

Seeing Chu Xue arrive, Grandma Qiu's eyes crinkled with a smile: "What brings you here today?"

Chu Xue smiled lightly and said, "I came to inform my sister and brother-in-law that the housewarming party has been scheduled at home."

Upon hearing this, Zhang Shanmei, the second daughter-in-law of the eldest son's family, exclaimed, "Oh dear, it seems the family is going to have to spend another sum of money."

Grandma Qiu was so angry at her great-granddaughter-in-law: "If you can't speak properly, then don't speak at all."

Chu Xue ignored her words and put down the basket. In front of everyone in the yard, she said, "Sister, these are melons that my boyfriend brought back from the south. Please share some with everyone."

As he spoke, he took two out of his basket.

Xia Qiu was surprised that her younger sister had brought so many precious things. Thinking that there were guests at home today, she handed the melon in her hand directly to Qiu's great-grandmother: "Great-grandmother, cut some and take them inside so they can have a taste."

Grandma Qiu naturally understood what she meant, and felt a surge of warmth in her heart.

Chu Xue naturally overheard the conversation inside the house, and because she didn't want Zhang Shanmei to have an easy time, she took out a melon in the yard.

After expressing her gratitude to Chu Xue, Grandma Qiu took the melon into the kitchen and quickly brought it to the main room.

It was precisely because of this plate of melons that the initially troubled marriage was transformed into a way for the second branch of the family to repay Xia Qiu with all their gratitude for Chu Xue.
