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

Chapter 376 Feeling good about myself, there shouldn't be any major problems.

The first snow fell from the second floor just as the exam on the first floor was ending.

The people who came out of there had relaxed expressions and worried faces; it was simply a matter of whether they did well or poorly on the exam.

Looking at the time, it was almost 11 o'clock. Knowing that the results wouldn't be released until 2 pm, I quickly left the factory and headed towards Houhai.

When they were almost there, they found a secluded spot, took out a fishing net and a urea bag from their storage space, and then found a quiet place to sit down.

As usual, using urea bags as cover, I took out the pre-prepared bait and scattered it directly into the water. Before long, fish started coming this way, and that's when the fishing net came in handy.

The reason we had to go through this ordeal was just to be on the safe side; if anything went wrong, no one would be able to find out anything.

One net cast, and the harvest is plentiful.

She threw the small fish back into the water, only picking up fish weighing over a pound and putting them in the urea bag. Then, when no one was looking, she collected the large fish that were still fighting for the bait into her spatial storage, thinking she would find an opportunity to sell some of the fish in her space later.

She had already planned ahead, intending to accumulate several courtyard houses in a few years, waiting for their value to appreciate, so she needed to make money quickly during these few years.

Sensing someone approaching, she quickly scooped up the last few fish with her net.

Then someone laughed and said, "I told you it was you, but they didn't believe me."

As soon as Chu Xue heard the voice, she knew who it was.

She pulled the fish up, then turned to the newcomers and said with a smile, "Gentlemen, it's been a long time."

Grandpa Xiao walked forward with a smile: "Oh, you've had a good day, girl."

Chu Xue threw all the small fish in the net back into the water, and pointed to the big fish in the net: "Thank you for remembering me, grandfathers. There are still a few big fish here. Why don't you share them? Consider it a gift from your granddaughter."

Upon hearing this, the old men all laughed: "The girl is getting better and better at handling things. We appreciate the favor, but we certainly can't take it for nothing." With that, the old men all got to work. Old Master Xiao said, "Forget about the money. I'm sure the girl doesn't need it. Let's get her some more tickets."

A thick stack of tickets was handed over shortly afterward.

Chu Xue was a little embarrassed to accept it: "Isn't this a bit too much?"

Grandpa Xiao shoved the tickets into Chu Xue's hand: "It's been a while since we last saw you, and you've become distant from us. Here, take these."

Since things had come to this point, Chu Xue really couldn't refuse anymore, after all, she knew the temperaments of these old men.

At this moment, Grandpa Guo spoke up: "Girl, what brings you to the city today?"

Chu Xue didn't hide anything: "I only found out about the steel mill's recruitment by chance. I came here today to take the exam. The results won't be out until this afternoon, so I came here. It wouldn't be right to come to the city for nothing."

Grandpa Qi pointed to the fish in the urea bag: "Where are these fish?"

Chu Xue laughed: "I'm going to send it to the hospital cafeteria where my dad was previously hospitalized. They took good care of me, so it's a win-win situation."

Grandpa Xiao picked out two big fish: "Alright, I'll send one to Old Juntou so he won't keep coming to my house to freeload."

After saying that, he looked at Chuxue and asked, "How did your exam go? Do you need me to put in a good word for you?"

Chu Xue quickly waved her hand: "No need, no need. It's hard to say how I did on the exam yet, but I feel good about it, so it shouldn't be a big problem."

Just as Grandpa Guo was about to squat down to pick out some fish, he said, "So, if you're going to work and live in the city from now on, won't you never have to worry about not having fish to eat?"

Chu Xue laughed: "If I can really pass the exam and stay in the city to work, this small request will naturally not be a problem."
