Chapter 1220 Intercepting
Fu Yancheng didn't want to spoil Chu Xue's good mood: "It's nothing serious, I'll tell you when we get back."
Just then, Instructor Guo came out of the house with his second wife: "Thank you all for taking time out of your busy schedules to attend my wedding with Sang Yu. Have a good meal and drinks tonight."
After saying that, he and his wife went from table to table toasting the guests.
When he got to Chu Xue's table, he introduced her to his wife: "This is Battalion Commander Fu's wife, Xiao Chu Xue, and that is Deputy Battalion Commander Shen's wife, Mo Ru Hua. She used to be the sister-in-law of Battalion Commander Tao. You can just call her Sister-in-law Tao."
After clinking glasses, Instructor Guo smiled and said, "I get along well with the men from those families, and I hope you all can get along well too."
Tao's wife was a straightforward person, and she smiled and chimed in: "Don't worry, Instructor Guo, we'll definitely invite your Sangyu to join us for any activities in the future."
Instructor Guo laughed and said, "I've been waiting for you to say that, ladies."
After the meal, Chu Xue got to know quite a few military wives, and of course, she also mentally made a list of which ones she could befriend, which ones she only needed to be polite to, and which ones she couldn't befriend.
After dinner, on the way home, Fu Yancheng told Chuxue about the passing of Qiu's great-grandmother: "Dad said the burial is in three days, and I have already agreed to go with him."
Chu Xue was surprised that Grandma Qiu had left so suddenly: "Won't this affect your work?"
Fu Yancheng shook his head and said, "It's nothing."
Chu Xue looked up at Fu Yancheng and said, "Then let's set the dinner for two days from now. I'll go back to the city with you that day, since I have to go back to the factory the next day."
Fu Yancheng nodded and replied, "Okay."
Thinking of the ingredients, Chu Xue said, "I remember you mentioned there's a reservoir above Baifu Village. How about we try our luck tomorrow?"
"You want to go fishing?"
"Hmm, if we find something we like, we can add another dish."
Seeing her eager expression, Fu Yancheng said, "Okay, I'll invite a few people to go together tomorrow."
Chu Xue was focused on getting more fish through her space tomorrow so she could have more meat dishes, but she didn't know that the Italian delegation from the Canton Fair had already arrived in Beijing, and that Miss Anna had also asked the hosting unit to hire Chu Xue as their personal translator.
However, when Factory Director Yang received the call, Qin Ruoyun happened to be in the office and overheard it: "Uncle Yang, why don't you let me give it a try?"
Factory Director Yang's face showed a hint of difficulty: "You heard it too, they specifically asked for Xiao Chuxue."
Qin Ruoyun said coquettishly, "Uncle Yang, just pretend that nothing happened. I will have my family take care of things when the time comes."
Seeing that Director Yang didn't say anything, Qin Ruoyun said coquettishly, "Uncle Yang, please help me. If it really doesn't work, it's not too late to let her go over there."
Factory Director Yang had no choice but to agree.
The next day, Fu Yancheng took Chuxue and Su Lianchang, who was on leave, to a reservoir not far from Baifu Village.
Chu Xue had prepared the bait in advance. After they arrived and found a good spot, they caught fish in no time. Company Commander Su exclaimed in surprise, "What kind of luck is this today? When did fish become so easy to catch?"
But as he caught more and more fish, he became increasingly agitated: "Brother Fu, both of our buckets are full."
Fu Yancheng was also puzzled. They had fished here before, but they had never had such a good catch: "It seems that God is on my side. With this money, we can at least have two more meat dishes tomorrow."
Seeing that she had caught enough fish, Chu Xue secretly changed the bait to ordinary bait.
