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

Chapter 481 If you want to go back to the city, then you need to be mentally prepared.

As Fu Yancheng started the car, he chuckled, "If you wake up late in the morning, this is just the right time to make a drink."

While helping Chuxue fasten her seatbelt, he whispered, "We're getting married in a little over six months, so we should use this time to take good care of our health."

Upon hearing this, Chu Xue quickly understood what he meant and blushed immediately: "Aren't you going to drive?"

Seeing her shyness, Fu Yancheng was afraid of really making her angry, so he quickly changed the subject: "Xue'er, now that we're engaged, I'm thinking of going back to the army to submit the marriage application. I'll apply for a house for the couple to live in during their military service, so you can come and help with the furnishings when you have time, okay?"

What's wrong with that? Since it's already decided, as a soul from a later generation, I naturally won't hesitate: "Okay, you do what you think is best."

Upon receiving consent, Fu Yancheng was overjoyed.

Chu Xue looked at his expression and said, "Drive carefully."

Fu Yancheng turned to look at her and said, "Don't worry, I'll make sure you get to the factory safely."

While the two of them were having a good time, the second son of the Fu family and his wife were not having an easy time: "Yanwei, do you want to call home and explain?"

Fu Yanwei hesitated for a moment, then shook his head without thinking and said, "Let's forget about it. I'll take some time at noon to go to the farm and find out the situation from my younger sister before we talk about it."

"I really don't know what you're worried about. Why don't you just say you want to go back to the city? What's so hard to say?"

Fu Yanwei was a little annoyed: "Have you thought about how the three of us will live if we can't get good jobs back in the city?" "We're living at home anyway, we're not going to starve to death, are we?"

"Do you know that my eldest brother and third brother's families have to pay for food every month? Over the years, not only have we not been filial to my parents, but they have also sent me ten yuan every month. All of this is because I went to the countryside. My brothers also felt that I was suffering in the countryside, so no one said anything."

But once we go back, all these preferential treatments will be gone. Have you thought it through?

Hao Yanhong had indeed heard Fu Yanwei mention before that the eldest and third wives had to pay for food according to the number of people in their household, but she hadn't taken it seriously at the time. Now that she wanted to return to the city, she had to face these issues: "Our situation is different from theirs. If it weren't for the monthly subsidies from our families, we probably wouldn't even have enough to eat, so we naturally wouldn't have any savings."

But they're different. The first and third wives both have jobs, and even if they contribute to the household expenses, they still have a lot left over. We've just returned to the city; how can we compare to them?"

Fu Yanwei took the cigarette case from the windowsill, took out a cigarette, and as he put the cigarette case back on the windowsill, he also took the matches.

He silently lit a cigarette and slowly took a puff: "Even if I signed up on my own back then, I'm still a hero to my family. After all, if I didn't go to the countryside, the rest of my family would have to. But once I returned to the city, it would be impossible to deduct money from my parents' hands. I couldn't bear that embarrassment."

So, if you want to go back to the city, you need to be mentally prepared.

"Furthermore, as you've seen, my fourth brother is getting married soon. From now on, the four of you sisters-in-law will be living under one roof, so housework is unavoidable. Have you considered all of this?"

"Fu Yanwei, what do you mean? You've been trying to stop me from doing this and that. You don't just want to go back to the city and leave the mother and child in the countryside, do you?"

“When did I say I wasn’t going to take you guys? I just wanted to tell you that going back to the city is fine, but you can’t do whatever you want like this anymore.”
