Well, it's all a matter of personal preference.

"Who said you should buy it? You should talk to your father-in-law and ask him to buy it. He'll definitely prefer living in his own yard."

Xu Damao nodded upon hearing this.

I lingered there for a while before heading back to the factory.

After Xu Damao left, Li Chu sat there and thought about what he had just said about He Yuzhu and Qin Huairu getting a divorce.

I never imagined that one sentence of his would become the fuse for the couple's divorce.

You can't say Qin Huairu is a bad woman; she is the most typical good mother who gives all her love to her child without reservation, and has completely lost herself in life.

But here's the problem: you can love your own child unconditionally, but you can't expect the same from others.

Is it wrong for He Yuzhu to want a child of his own?

No, this is a very normal demand.

If you're not willing, then the other person will definitely have to find someone who is.

Sigh, He Yuzhu has been helping them for over a decade, but now it's confirmed he won't be helping them anymore. I wonder if their family can even make ends meet.

Her son did go to work, but I heard he can't even support himself.

Alas, Qin Huairu, that poor woman.

Actually, Li Chu didn't pity Qin Huairu herself; he just felt that Qin Huairu, a woman with little education, had such great maternal love.

During lunch, he told his wife about it.

Ding Qiunan only said one sentence: Children and grandchildren have their own blessings.

As their mother, the best thing I can give my child is a happy family and to help them develop a positive outlook on life and values.

After finishing her meal, Ding Qiunan was about to go back to her office to rest when her husband mysteriously pulled her to his office in the administration building.

Why did you bring me here?

"Don't worry, I'll show you something good."

As she spoke, Li Chu took out the jewelry she had retrieved that morning from her handbag and placed it on the table.

Ding Qiunan looked at the small wooden box on the table in front of her, then looked at her husband with a puzzled expression.

"Call and let's see!"

"What is this? Why are you being so mysterious?"

As she spoke, she opened the small box.

Wow! Where did you get so much gold jewelry? Did you rob a jewelry store?

!!

At this moment, Li Chu felt that the black lines on his forehead were completely covered.

Why is my wife's thought process so strange?

You want to rob a gold shop? You try robbing one and see what happens.

Seeing her man's dark face, Ding Qiunan smiled and tugged at his arm, saying, "Oh, don't be angry, I was just joking. Where did you get all this jewelry? Why did you buy so much?"

She paused here, then looked her husband up and down with a strange expression: "Where did you get the money? I receive my hospital salary every month, and you hand over your salary to the health care team every month. Where would you get any more money?"

"Well……"

Oh my god, why is my wife different from other women?

Why is her focus always so strange?

Why wasn't she interested in the jewelry in front of her?

At this moment, Li Chu's mind was filled with a million questions.

"I...I still have a special allowance, don't I?"

"What special allowance? I don't know anything about it. How much is it each month?"

"Don't rush, honey. Sit down first, and I'll explain it to you slowly."

Li Chu quickly helped Ding Qiunan sit down, and didn't forget to pretend to wipe the sweat from his head.

"Pfft!" Ding Qiunan couldn't help but burst out laughing.

She raised her hand and slapped her husband: "What are you doing!"

"Hehe, honey, let me tell you, that special allowance is given after you're elected as a class representative. It's not much, just fifty a month."

"Where did you get so much jewelry? Li Chu, you haven't done anything wrong, have you?" Ding Qiunan asked nervously, holding her man's hand.

"What are you thinking? How could I do something bad? These are two gold bars that I specially collected and had made into jewelry, not jewelry I bought."

"real?"

"Of course it's true, why would I lie to you about this?"

"Then why are you making so much jewelry?"

Li Chu pulled the small box over and placed it in front of Ding Qiunan.

"There are eight sets of jewelry in total: rings, necklaces, bracelets, and earrings. You get one set..."

Ding Qiunan was about to say something when Li Chu raised his hand to stop her.

"One set for each son and daughter, three sets for our sister's family, and two sets for your family, that's it."

Ding Qiunan looked helplessly at her husband squatting in front of her and reached out to touch his face.

"You've included everyone else, but why don't you include yourself?"

“I don’t wear these things, and besides, I can’t wear them anyway.”

"If you can't wear it, why can I?"

"You can't wear other things to work, but you can always wear a necklace. Just wear it inside your clothes."

"Hey, honey, look!" Li Chu proudly pulled out a set of jewelry from a small wooden box, as if it were a gift.

“Look, every piece of this jewelry set is engraved with both of our surnames.”

Ding Qiunan took them and examined them carefully. Sure enough, each one had the characters "Li" and "Ding" on it, with a small heart between the two surnames.

"Hehe, isn't my idea pretty good!"

Li Chu was like a child waiting to be praised by his parents, eager to claim credit.

"Thank you, Li Chu!" Ding Qiunan hugged her husband, who was squatting in front of her, tightly.

"Ugh..." Li Chu struggled for a moment before lifting his head off his wife's chest.

"Are you trying to murder your husband, wife? Are you trying to suffocate me?!"

"You're so annoying!"

Just as she was feeling touched, his words ruined the atmosphere, making Ding Qiunan so angry that she slapped him a few more times.

"Oh, we've been married for so long, I'll get you some jewelry. There's no need to thank me. This year marks our twentieth wedding anniversary, so this set of jewelry is my early gift to you."

"Fool" Ding Qiunan raised her hand again and gently stroked Li Chu's face.

"After all these years, the best gift I've received is you. I don't care about anything else!"

Li Chu smiled, stood up, and kissed her forehead.

"I'm not going to run away, it's always been yours, you still have to give me the jewelry. When you get back tonight, divide these up, and you can put them away for the two kids first, and give the rest to them."

"Okay, I'll divide it up when we get back tonight, but you can let Yueyue take a look at her set first!"

"It's up to you now. You handle it. I'm not going to worry about it anymore."

Ding Qiunan reached out and closed the box, patting it as she said, "I'll leave it here for now and give it to you when I get back tonight. I'll rest here for a while."

"Go quickly, honey! The blanket is in the closet."

"Stay by my bedside!"

"Okay, I'll stay with you! You rest well, I'll sit by the bed." Li Chu smiled, ruffled his wife's hair, and took her hand to the bedside.
