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

Chapter 905 An Unexpected Good Thing
Fu Yancheng had no objection, but he needed to ask Chu Xue before he could agree: "I'll ask my fiancée later to see if she has time."

Zhang Xiaodong immediately pulled the blanket over his face: "Is this still you? My God, give me back my aloof and taciturn childhood friend. We're not even married yet, and he's already showing signs of being henpecked."

Fu Yancheng didn't care what he said and walked out with the clothes in his arms, saying, "You don't even have a boyfriend, so of course you wouldn't understand."

Zhang Xiaodong was about to sit up and retort when the door slammed shut with a 'bang': "Hey, you..."

He pounded the bed in anger: "You've got a fiancée now, and you've forgotten about your buddy?"

The sound was blocked out by the door. Fu Yancheng looked at the bright orange-red in his hand, smiled, and quickly got into the car.

When Chu Xue arrived at the office carrying her things, Sister Hong happened to turn around and see her: "Didn't you have three days off? Why did you come here?"

She smiled and held up what she was holding: "I brought back some local specialties to share with everyone. Also, we're distributing New Year's benefits today, so I thought I'd take them all at once."

Sister Hong thought about it and agreed; she would have to come sooner or later.

Upon hearing this, everyone else in the office smiled and greeted Chuxue.

The only thing I brought to the office was cheese; that was all. Everyone was given a big handful, just to give the gist of it: "The weather has been overcast all day, and the snow started falling before we even left, so we didn't have much time to go shopping. This cheese is from the market where we were loading the goods. Everyone, try it and see how it tastes."

Seeing that the section chief wasn't in the office, he first grabbed a handful and gave it to Sister Hong. Then he put a large handful on the section chief's desk before coming out to distribute it to the others.

The office was bustling with activity for a while.

Cui Haiqing asked, "When I came over this morning, they said you encountered a wolf attack?"

Chu Xue gave a soft "hmm": "Now I understand why you all made excuses to avoid it."

Her words made everyone a little embarrassed. Wang Minmin, however, became interested: "Chuxue, tell us quickly, how did you escape?"

Chu Xue didn't want to say anything, but she couldn't stop everyone from looking at her.

I could only briefly tell everyone about my trip to Inner Mongolia.

Wang Minmin's hair stood on end as she listened: "Luckily, I wasn't feeling well those days. If it were me, I'd probably be scared to death."

After saying that, he rubbed his sleeves and said, "I have no objection to you taking three days off this time. You deserve it. In such a dangerous situation, if you hadn't worked together, I really don't want to think about the consequences."

As soon as she finished speaking, Section Chief Li walked in: "Chu Xue, I've heard about what happened to you. You really are a woman who doesn't yield to men. I didn't expect you to be so calm at such a critical moment."

Chu Xue smiled modestly: "Section Chief, please don't praise me too much, I'm afraid I'll get arrogant."

Section Chief Li approached and patted Chu Xue on the shoulder: "The factory director said he'll give you credit, and you're guaranteed to be one of the outstanding workers for May Day next year."

Chu Xue was surprised by this good news: "Thank you so much."

Section Chief Li laughed and said, "That's what you deserve. Captain Ma and the others said that without your strong support, they probably wouldn't have been able to escape unscathed."

There wasn't much to do in the department today. After the first snow, I went to the third section of the Finance Minister's office to collect my salary.

Originally, wages were paid on February 10th after the Lunar New Year, but in order to ensure that all employees in the factory could have a happy New Year, this month's wages were paid in advance. Any discrepancies will be deducted and paid retroactively next month.
