"Come on, let's have a drink!" To ease the atmosphere, Meng Ying raised her glass.

"Cheers!" Others also responded. Zhao Tianrui tried hard to reach his short hand and clink glasses with everyone.

"You know what, Shushu, the soup dumplings you made today taste even better than before." Meng Ying began to change the subject, but what she said was indeed what was in her heart. The soup dumplings this time tasted even better.

Jian Shu puffed out his chest proudly, his chin raised. "Of course I've spent a year researching this recipe, revising it many times. Of course it tastes good."

Zhao Yueling looked at her with some envy, "Sister, you live a very comfortable life. You spend every day at home studying food. Don't you feel bored?" But even though she was envious, she felt that her life was pretty good now.

"It's not boring. I have a lot of things to do to pass the time." Jianshu really couldn't understand why she was bored. There were so many ways to pass the time. She was enjoying her current life.

Meng Ying was also a little hesitant, and then she said, "Yes, Shushu, your sister has a point. How about I help you find a job there? I don't care about the salary, I just want a leisurely job where you can interact with other people on a daily basis."

Although Meng Ying didn't know the term "housewife," as a woman, she was well aware of the importance of work for women. With a job, she could earn money to support her family, which gave her confidence.

Why were women in the old society forced to dedicate themselves to their husbands? Why were they forced to endure any hardship, no matter how severe? It was because they had no jobs, no source of income, and could only live at the mercy of men. They simply didn't have the confidence to speak up, and therefore lacked the courage to say no.

In her opinion, women should have their own jobs and social lives, and should not stay at home all the time, which is not good.

Jianshu said before that she wanted to take a break. She was considering changing to a new environment and adapting to it first. It would be a good opportunity for her to take a break for a while so that the two children can spend more time together. Maybe they would bring her good news and let her become a grandmother.

But it was almost a year, and seeing that the two of them were in no hurry to have a child, she couldn't help but think about work again.

Seeing the concern in her eyes, Jian Shu shared some of his thoughts with her to prevent her from worrying too much. "Don't worry, Auntie. It's not that I don't plan to work, but it's just not very convenient these few years. You know the conditions over there. There are not many job opportunities, and there are too many people for too few jobs. Many wives of soldiers in the family compound who are in financial difficulties are eyeing this job. They need it more than I do."

There are only so many positions that the army can provide for family members. Every time a vacancy comes up, people will fight to the death to grab it. As for those who slander behind the back and say sour words, Jianshu really doesn't want to get involved.

Why bother yourself with trouble when you can have a quiet life?
