"What the political commissar said makes sense."

Xu Qingluo had no idea that she was about to be honored with the title of "the most beautiful military wife".

On January 1st of every year, the army will select the "Most Beautiful Military Wife" of the previous year based on labor virtues.

In this era, honor is above everything else.

The military wife who wins the title of "Most Beautiful Military Wife" will be rewarded with a ceiling fan ticket and a certificate of honor by the army.

The weather in early September is less hot and more cool.

Xu Qingluo carried a backpack and went to the foot of the mountain with Sun Cuiju and Feng Shuang to collect firewood.

"Qingluo."

"Would you like to go fishing with us in the mountain river?"

Feng Shuang asked and found out that the family members often went to the river in the mountains to wash clothes and catch fish.

Xu Qingluo has been in the family compound for so long, but has never been to the mountain.

The weather had just gotten a bit cooler recently, so she could take this opportunity to take two fish home.

"Row."

Xu Qingluo, Feng Shuang and Sun Cuiju went up the mountain together. When Xu Qingluo saw wild fruits, he would pick some.

"These are wild grapes."

Seeing that Xu Qingluo was a little confused about the wild fruits on the mountain, Feng Shuang told Xu Qingluo which ones were edible.

"Wild grapes?"

"Yes, sour and sweet."

Xu Qingluo thought that this must be grapes.

It's just that it grows wild, not artificially cultivated like grapes.

Xu Qingluo picked a few bunches of wild grapes and some wild berries, which were blueberries.

Xu Qingluo followed Feng Shuang and Sun Cuiju up the mountain while eating wild fruits.

Feng Shuang and Sun Cuiju couldn't help laughing when they saw her picking up food and eating it along the way.

They had never seen anyone like Xu Qingluo, who would try any delicious food herself first.

Only when you take good care of yourself will you think about your children and husband.

Feng Shuang couldn't help but feel emotional when he saw Xu Qingluo like this.

Even if she had lived a lifetime, she could not love herself unconditionally like Xu Qingluo.

In her previous life, she was used to putting her children first.

This has been going on for decades and has become a habit.

Even in this lifetime, she could not change this habit that was ingrained in her bones.

Xu Qingluo ate as he walked, and soon reached the river.

The river is not far away, and it only takes half an hour to walk from the foot of the mountain.

The river here is not very deep, only about up to an adult's knees.

But for children, it still has some depth.

Many military families were washing clothes by the river, and children were sitting on a large rock nearby, stretching their feet and playing in the water.

Xu Qingluo took off his shoes, rolled up his trouser legs, and went into the water with Feng Shuang and Sun Cuiju.

Xu Qingluo has fair skin and her trouser legs are lifted above her knees.

Her two white and straight calves aroused the envy of many military wives.

"The captain's wife is being treated so pampered this week."

"yes......."

Many military wives couldn't help but murmur, and they felt indescribable envy in their hearts.

They are all women and they are all mothers, but why are there such big differences?

Look at their hands and feet, they are so rough from working every day that you can even tear off a layer of dead skin.

But this week, the captain's wife has white hands and feet.

The two legs are like white radishes, looking tender and juicy.

"Be careful."

Feng Shuang and Sun Cuiju each held her hand. They also realized that Xu Qingluo had never been in the river.

"So cool."

Xu Qingluo exclaimed with joy. The river water was icy cold and she felt extremely comfortable.

“How do you catch fish?”

Xu Qingluo looked at Feng Shuang and Sun Cuiju with bright eyes.

Feng Shuang and Sun Cuiju were stunned when they saw her look.

Is Captain Zhou usually looked at with such admiring eyes?

No wonder Captain Zhou has always been pampering Xu Qingluo.

If they were men, they would be stared at like this every day.

I'm afraid he's not much better than Captain Zhou.

Feng Shuang and Sun Cuiju came to their senses and briefly explained to her some techniques for catching fish.

To put it simply, it means being quick-eyed and quick-handed. When you see the fish, just reach out and grab it.

There's no skill involved, it's all luck.

Xu Qingluo nodded, thinking that it was all due to luck.

She had never caught a fish before, so she could only rely on luck to fool the big ones.

Xu Qingluo followed Feng Shuang and Sun Cuiju's example, put his hands in the water, and was ready at any time.

"If there's a fish, there's a fish!"

Feng Shuang shouted, and the military wives who were fishing all walked towards the fish.

But the fish was very agile and dodged everyone's attempts to catch it, successfully slipping away from more than a dozen pairs of hands.

"That's pretty fast."

More than a dozen military wives couldn't catch a single fish. They all sighed with regret and continued to try again.

"There's fish!"

There are quite a few fish in this river, but they are all very agile.

Military wives’ reactions are not as good as their own husbands’.

Those who usually catch fish rely on luck.

The military wives who were washing clothes by the river were also looking at the situation in the river.

He would also enthusiastically point out the direction the fish were running to the military wives who were fishing.

"Run there!"

"Where is it? Where is it?"

Everyone lowered their heads to look for him. Xu Qingluo walked to an empty corner and blocked his view with his body.

"Tongzi, hurry up."

The system took out a fish and put it in Xu Qingluo's hand.

The fish in Xu Qingluo's hand kept struggling, splashing water on Xu Qingluo's face.

Xu Qingluo's face was covered in water, and she secretly swore in her heart that she would kill and eat the fish tonight.

"Caught!"

Xu Qingluo shouted, and Feng Shuang and Sun Cuiju hurried over to help.

"Wow! Such a big one!"

Feng Shuang and Sun Cuiju exclaimed when they saw the fish in Xu Qingluo's hand.

This fish looks quite big, it is estimated to weigh nearly one kilogram.

"Quick, put it in the bucket."

Xu Qingluo didn't bring a bucket, so Sun Cuiju took her own bucket and asked her to put the water in.

Xu Qingluo put the fish into the bucket, and as soon as the fish entered the bucket, it started swimming.

What the system gave Xu Qingluo was a carp.

Carp soup is the best to eat, and it is also a good way to give some fish soup to the two children to nourish their bodies.

"Did Captain Zhou's wife catch any fish?"

"Oh my goodness! This fish is really big!"

Everyone came forward and gathered around the bucket to look at it.

There was also a military wife who reached out to grab the fish, and Sun Cuiju immediately yelled.

"Look, but don't touch."

Sun Cuiju knew the virtues of these military wives. Some of them had envied others for catching fish before.

I deliberately caught the fish to look at it, but then my hand slipped and the fish fell back into the river.

This isn't the first time this has happened.

Xu Qingluo didn’t know these things because it was his first time fishing, but Sun Cuiju knew them.

The military wife who wanted to reach out her hand heard Sun Cuiju's roar, and she pulled her hand back awkwardly with an embarrassed look on her face.

Xu Qingluo glanced at the military wives and walked forward to pick up a stone nearby.

Take the fish out of the bucket and knock it unconscious.

Feng Shuang went to the river and picked some cattail to help Xu Qingluo tie up the fish.

Cattails are about the same length as straw and like to grow near rivers.

It can pass through the fish gills smoothly and be used as dry straw.
