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

Chapter 307 Your Aunt is a Person
Upon hearing the question, the aunt who had spoken earlier replied, "That's right. She came twice before and even brought big fish for the Qiu family. Now she's bringing more things. It's truly enviable."

"Just watch, with such a supportive family, Shaofeng's wife is sure to have a great life in the Qiu family."

"Shaofeng's sister-in-law is really beautiful. I wonder if she has a boyfriend?"

"Oh dear, Zhang family, don't even think about it. Xia Qiu and her husband went back to her parents' home to help repair the house. When they came back, they were brought back in a jeep. Shao Feng said that the man driving the jeep was his sister-in-law's boyfriend. He must be talking about this girl."

"That's a pity. I was thinking of introducing it to my nephew."

"Stop joking. I'm not trying to discourage you, but even if he doesn't have a partner, he probably wouldn't be interested in your nephew."

“Oh, what are you saying? What’s wrong with my nephew? He’s a full-time employee at the farm.”

“Zhang family, don’t be angry. I’m just telling the truth. Putting everything else aside, your nephew’s face full of pimples is enough to scare people away.”

Chu Xue naturally heard the conversation outside, but it had nothing to do with her.

As soon as she entered the courtyard, her brother-in-law saw her first: "Chu Xue, what brings you here?"

Seeing the basket on her back, he quickly ran over to help her: "Your sister is inside."

As she spoke, she reached out to help him carry the basket on his back, gesturing for her to come inside.

Chu Xue nodded to the others in the courtyard and then followed her brother-in-law into the house.

Given the current situation, it didn't seem appropriate to greet them. As soon as they entered the house, Qiu Shaofeng helped them put down the basket: "It's a good thing you came at this time; you've just saved me."

Chu Xue glanced outside and asked, "What's going on?"

Xia Qiu wrung out a towel and handed it to Chu Xue: "Quickly wipe your face."

After saying that, he whispered to Chuxue about what happened in the courtyard: "My second cousin's wife gave birth a few days ago, but the delivery was not smooth. At first, we thought of sending her to the commune hospital, but unfortunately, the doctor who was good at midwifery was not there. The commune hospital was afraid that something might happen, so they did not dare to keep her and sent her directly to the county hospital."

Afterwards, she gave birth to a daughter via C-section. Because of oxygen deprivation in the womb, she was taken to the pediatric ward for three days. As soon as my aunt heard the doctor say that the baby no longer needed to stay in the incubator, she quickly arranged for her discharge.

Chu Xue glanced outside the courtyard again: "So what's going on now? Why are they all standing in the yard?"

Xia Qiu whispered in Chu Xue's ear: "These past few days, we've spent nearly three hundred yuan at the hospital, including the adults and the children. Not only have we emptied our savings, but we also borrowed thirty yuan. My brother-in-law's wedding is the day after tomorrow, but we can't afford a single penny."

My aunt's idea was to have his two daughters-in-law borrow some money from their respective families to help with the family's immediate financial crisis.

Xia Qiu might not have understood, but Chu Xue was different. She had seen all sorts of demons and monsters in her past life: "Your aunt is a remarkable person. She's doing this for your second branch of the family. If she really wanted her daughters-in-law to go back to their respective families to borrow money, she wouldn't have emptied the family's coffers."

Upon hearing this, Qiu Shaofeng frowned slightly. Perhaps his sister-in-law was right; otherwise, his aunt wouldn't have come back again after his uncle had asked for money once, crying and kneeling until his great-grandmother took out all the money in the house, and only then would his uncle have to borrow more if it wasn't enough.

Chu Xue saw that her older sister didn't quite believe it: "Don't you think about it? If the two daughters-in-law were to go back to their parents' home to borrow money, the debt would have to be borne by the eldest son's family. But it's different when you borrow from the villagers. Since you haven't separated your family, people will naturally think that the money was borrowed by the Qiu family. The main thing is that your uncle and aunt think so."
