If there were no other options, that would be one thing, but Zhou Yuanchao now has the ability to bring his parents with him and take care of them. (Le Wen Novel)
Wang Ying sighed and said, "Actually, I know that my father-in-law is a good man. He feels that he is too old and does not want to be a burden to me and Yuanchao! He wants us to work and live well outside. He is too old to come to the city to help us. It is better for him to stay on the grassland, where he can herd livestock and send us beef jerky and cheese."
“I’ve heard that Yuanchao is very respectful and grateful to his stepfather,” He Tiantian said with a smile. “Don’t worry, just work hard and let them know that you’re making a lot of money in the city and can support them. They’ll naturally be willing to come over.”
“That’s what I advised Yuanchao as well,” Wang Ying said. “If he had stayed at the Nanshi Research Institute and hadn’t come to Yanjing with the boss, Yuanchao might not have had the confidence. But if he had been transferred to Yanjing with the boss and followed him, he would have had a higher salary and even higher bonuses, and he could have brought his parents-in-law over sooner.”
Every family has its own set of problems.
However, Zhou Yuanchao's stepfather was a loving father, which was better than those unreasonable people.
He Tiantian comforted Wang Ying and helped her pack her things.
Then, He Tiantian noticed that Wang Ying's house had no appliances, so in the afternoon, He Tiantian went directly to an appliance store and ordered a washing machine, a refrigerator, and a rice cooker. As for the air conditioner, she decided not to install it since they wouldn't need it for the time being.
Installing an air conditioner requires rewiring, which is quite troublesome.
When He Tiantian came over again in the afternoon, she handed Wang Ying three delivery slips and said, "Wang Ying, you've just moved in, and you don't need anything else, so I'll give you three home appliances, which you'll find useful."
"Huh?" Wang Ying was taken aback, then saw the price on it. "Sister-in-law, this is too expensive, I can't accept it!"
"Alright, don't be so polite with me," He Tiantian said. "We've just moved in, and there are a lot of things to buy. While it's not like we'll be broke after moving for three years, we're not exactly well-off either. Plus, you'll need to save up to bring your in-laws over."
Wang Ying was moved. She was in a strange place and felt lost. It was rare to find someone she knew!
This acquaintance even gave them such a big gift.
"Sister-in-law, thank you." Wang Ying said gratefully, "This costs two thousand three hundred yuan, which is my salary for a year."
"Alright, Yuanchao and Yingjie are sworn brothers, let's not worry about this anymore," He Tiantian said. Ever since Huo Yingjie told her about his past life, Zhou Yuanchao had lost his life to save Huo Yingjie.
In this life, the two also have a good relationship.
He Tiantian and Huo Yingjie both want to repay Zhou Yuanchao.
Wang Ying didn't refuse anymore, thinking about how to repay He Tiantian in the future.
When Zhou Yuanchao returned that evening, he also brought Huo Yingjie with him.
Wang Ying and He Tiantian had already prepared the meal at home.
"Sister-in-law, you're still as beautiful as ever," Zhou Yuanchao chuckled. "You're still so young. Your eldest brother is truly blessed."
"Alright, stop being so glib. Go wash your hands and come eat," He Tiantian said with a smile. "Aren't you afraid of getting beaten up?"
Huo Yingjie chuckled and said, "This guy's asking for it."
“Boss, give him a good beating and make him listen to you.” Wang Ying laughed. “He’s as stubborn as a mule. Some things, I can’t change even if I tell him once or twice. The only one in this world who can control Zhou Yuanchao is you, Boss.”
Zhou Yuanchao came out of the bathroom and retorted, "What the boss said makes sense, of course I'll listen to him. What you said doesn't make sense, of course I can't listen to him."
"You're just making excuses," Wang Ying said with a laugh, as she carried her child out to eat.
"By the way, you two are at work, what about the child?" He Tiantian asked, as the child was not yet old enough to attend early childhood education classes.
Wang Ying smiled wryly and said, "I was just thinking of sending the child to your house for a couple of days and having Grandma Wang look after the child for a few days. I'll find an older woman in our neighborhood to help me look after the child, and we'll give her a little money each month."
Upon hearing this, He Tiantian immediately shook her head and said, "How can that be! If that's the case, you might as well leave the child in your hometown!"
“Yes, if that doesn’t work, I’ll send him back to Nanshi and have my mom help take care of him,” Wang Ying said with a smile. “I’ll bring him back when he’s old enough to go to kindergarten.”
He Tiantian thought for a moment and said, "How about this, you can send the child to my house before you go to work. I only have classes three days a week, and Grandma Wang can help take care of the child at home. Is that okay?"
Wang Ying and Zhou Yuanchao were somewhat agitated, but quickly calmed down.
"Eldest brother, sister-in-law, isn't this too much trouble for you?" Zhou Yuanchao was a little embarrassed. He would naturally feel more at ease leaving it at his eldest brother's house, but this wasn't something that could be done in a day or two; it would take a year or two!
“It is a bit troublesome, but compared to leaving your child with someone else, it’s better to leave him with my family. We are good people, and your son is also my nephew,” Huo Yingjie said. “Besides, I have two children at home, so they can play together and it will be easier for them to take care of each other.”
"Thank you, boss," Zhou Yuanchao said. "I've been thinking about it lately. I'll have my sister come here to take the entrance exam for the music academy. When she comes, my stepfather and my mother will have to come too, so the child will be taken care of."
“Yuanchao, you’ve thought of this method too. I was talking about this with my sister-in-law today, so we’re kind of on the same page,” Wang Ying said. “Besides, one of my sister-in-law’s good friends is studying at a music academy, so we can ask her for advice on some details of the exam.”
"Yes, that's the easiest way," Zhou Yuanchao said. "By the way, sister-in-law, when are the music academy exams?"
"I think it'll be May after the New Year, but I'm not entirely sure. I'll go back and ask Xiaoyan," He Tiantian said. "It's better to come earlier and get some guidance from a good teacher than to go to the exam feeling completely lost!"
“Okay, I’ll bring my sister with me when I go back for the New Year this year,” Zhou Yuanchao said with a smile. “My stepfather is actually afraid of being a burden to me, afraid that he won’t be able to earn money in the city and that we will have to support him. This time when I came back, my stepfather gave me five thousand yuan. I don’t know how he saved up so much money.”
Zhou Yuanchao's stepfather was just an ordinary herdsman, and this money was probably his savings of many years.
"By the way, how much money do you have? If you don't want to live in an apartment building, you can buy a smaller house with a yard," Huo Yingjie said. Having a yard would be an asset for the family.
Zhou Yuanchao looked at Wang Ying and asked, "Do we have 30,000 yuan at home?"
Wang Ying knew He Tiantian and that Huo Yingjie was wealthy and wouldn't take advantage of her, so she didn't hide anything and said, "My family and stepfather gave me 41,000 yuan! I guess that's not enough?"
Zhou Yuanchao grinned and said, "Boss, sister-in-law, lend me some money first. I'll buy a courtyard house, and I'll save up all the money I have for living expenses each month to pay you back."
The two had a good relationship, and Zhou Yuanchao didn't stand on ceremony with Huo Yingjie.
