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

Chapter 50: What exactly happened? How could you catch a fish empty-handed?
When Liu Chuxue heard her mother's question, she belatedly realized that she had done something stupid. She shouldn't have brought the bucket out in the open. It was something from her spatial dimension. If someone who knew its value saw it, it could cause trouble.

After all, this is a barrel made of century-old sandalwood; it's hard to explain to people.

He quickly changed the subject, saying, "The doctor said my dad needs to eat some nutritious food to replenish his strength. We don't have any meat coupons, so I thought I'd go to the moat to see if I could get some fish. I didn't expect to be so lucky."

At this moment, not only Liu's mother, but also the aunt next door who was taking care of her came over and exclaimed, "My God, such a big fish!"

Before Liu's mother could react, Ji Ganlan, who was following behind Chu Xue, laughed and said, "Little sister, you've raised a good daughter. She knows how to care for people."

Seeing her mother's blank expression, Liu Chuxue quickly explained, "Mom, this aunt wants to trade fish with us."

Ji Ganlan was in a hurry to take the fish back to make fish soup for her daughter-in-law, so she quickly said, "Sister, it's like this, my daughter-in-law just gave birth this morning, but she hasn't started producing milk yet. I'm so worried and anxious, and that's when I met your daughter."

The child is kind-hearted and agreed to let me exchange the meat ration coupon for the fish. She was worried you parents might feel uneasy, so she asked me to come with her to tell you.”

Now Liu's mother understood. The man wanted to exchange meat coupons for her daughter's fish so that her daughter-in-law could produce milk. She was a little embarrassed, since she could get the meat coupons, but she had to go through the trouble to get the fish.

However, after seeing the fish in the bucket, he was indeed quite surprised: "My daughter caught the fish, so it's her decision."

Ji Ganlan laughed even more happily: "I was so worried about my daughter-in-law standing outside the delivery room all morning. It wasn't until I saw the baby that I remembered I needed to make soup to help with lactation. But there was no fish left to buy."

Since things had come to this point, Liu Chuxue went along with it: "Auntie, you can take all the fish. I can use the meat coupons to give my dad some extra nutrition. I'll go to the moat again later, maybe I'll catch some fish if I'm lucky."

Ji Ganlan was naturally delighted. She pulled out a handful of coupons from her pocket, quickly found the equivalent meat coupons, and also casually added two industrial coupons: "Count them, those two industrial coupons are a gift from your aunt." Her family certainly didn't lack meat coupons. Ever since they learned that their daughter-in-law was pregnant, the family members would exchange meat coupons with others whenever they had the chance. Giving away a few extra coupons wouldn't be a problem, but fresh black carp was a rare treat.

We have a refrigerator at home, so we're not worried about storing the food. It's perfect for my daughter-in-law to use for making soup.

The reason she gave them two industrial vouchers was because she felt the family was quite honest. She had seen the large, rough porcelain bowl on the bedside table when she came in. Since everyone in the family had a job, the vouchers were distributed proportionally to their monthly salaries.

The little girl said she wanted to share in her grandson's good fortune, and she loved hearing that.

After thanking her, Liu Chuxue was troubled. What should she do with the fish?
Ji Ganlan knew what she was worried about: "I have a relative who works in the hospital cafeteria. I'll go to her and see if I can find a solution."

She had already planned it out. She would cut some out and stew it as soon as she got to the kitchen, and then have her son take the rest home to put in the refrigerator, since it wasn't too far away anyway.

Liu Chuxue had her own plans, so she decided to go all the way and help deliver the fish to the cafeteria. Afterward, she found a place to put the bucket back into her spatial storage.

Of course, she had also thought in advance about how to deal with her mother.

When I returned to the ward, family members had already brought me food.

When Liu's mother saw her daughter return, she worriedly pulled her aside and asked, "What exactly happened today? How did you manage to catch a fish empty-handed?"
