Reborn in the 80s and Remarrying an Officer, Let the Ungrateful Cry! novel Chapter 436

Chapter 436: Chapter 436: Phone Call

Fu Mingxue went to work after breakfast.

Qin Wenhao had actually wanted to take his wife to work. He wanted to spend a little more time with her.

After all, his wife was leaving tomorrow.

Besides, she was sure to come home late tonight.

But his wife refused, saying she would ride her own bike to the factory.

She told him to go buy the train tickets first.

So, he had no choice but to take a military vehicle and head to the train station to buy the tickets.

Meanwhile, as Mrs. Fu was packing, her next-door neighbor, Wang Xiang, dropped by.

"Mrs. Fu, are you washing the quilts again? I seem to remember you just washed them the day before yesterday."

Wang Xiang didn’t understand. ’Is it really necessary to wash the quilts so often?’

Mrs. Fu explained, "We’re heading back to Beijing tomorrow and won’t be back until after the New Year, so I figured I’d wash all the quilts and everything now."

Wang Xiang was shocked. "What? You’re going back to Beijing? Why so early?"

"If we go back early, the trains won’t be as crowded. The closer it gets to the New Year, the more packed they become. Besides, my daughter has a business trip in Beijing, so we decided to all go back together."

As Mrs. Fu spoke, she didn’t stop working.

Wang Xiang was at a loss for words.

’She was actually quite envious of how capable Fu Mingxue was.’

’Being constantly entrusted with important responsibilities and sent on business trips... it meant she was a key figure at the factory.’

’She’d heard Fu Mingxue’s salary was probably pretty high, too—maybe even sixty or seventy yuan a month.’

’If that was true, that was enough to make anyone green with envy.’

’If only she could have a fraction of what Fu Mingxue had.’

’If she had a proper job, wouldn’t she have more of a say with her in-laws?’

...

Qin Wenhao bought the train tickets quickly.

After a moment’s thought, he decided to go to the post office to call home.

The call went through, but the voice on the other end was a young woman’s, not his mother’s.
