Chapter 357 Yu Hui's Advice
Qian Lan knew very well that Yu Qiang was a filial son and there was no way she could refuse his parents' request.
Even if she didn't agree and made a fuss with Yu Qiang, even to the point of divorce, Yu Qiang would not compromise with her. Instead, he would think she was being unreasonable.
She is a traditional woman. She doesn't want to get divorced. Even for the sake of her two sons, she can't let the family break up.
Yu Qiang and his wife, Bao Pandi and their child moved in with them. The house was barely big enough for them to stay. Once they moved in, unless Yu Zhuang had a house in the city, there was no way they could be driven away.
If this person moved into the house and a conflict arose, she alone would not be able to deal with the three of them. Yu Qiang, as a filial son and a good brother, would definitely side with his mother and younger brother.
In the end, it all turned out that she was unwilling to live a peaceful life and destroyed the harmony of the family.
So, she agreed to let her brother and sister-in-law move to the city. The purpose of the four of them moving to the city was to find a job.
Living under the same roof, conflicts are inevitable, and they stir up these conflicts with each other. She does not get involved and lets Yu Qiang resolve them.
If there are too many conflicts and quarrels, everyone will feel tired and annoyed.
What she wanted was to make Yu Qiang tired and annoyed by these conflicts. She wanted him to know how noisy and miserable life would be with so many more people at home.
"Xiaohui, if nothing unexpected happens, our house will be very noisy in the next few days. Please bear with it." Qian Lan looked at Yu Hui helplessly and said.
The latter smiled and shook his head, "I'm not responsible. If your family disturbs us, I'll let Brother Gu talk to Brother Yu."
Qian Lan was startled at first, but then she came to her senses and said with a smile, "That's right, don't worry. If you get disturbed, have your Gu Huai talk to Yu Qiang."
Yu Qiang must experience the feeling of being disliked by neighbors because there are too many people at home and they disturb him.
"My brother and sister-in-law, as well as Yu Qiang's mother and sister-in-law, are all eyeing our noodle shop. They all want to let someone work in the noodle shop. I told them that the noodle shop is not short of people. If they come to you and tell you, you must insist that the noodle shop is not short of people and never let them enter our noodle shop."
Neither her sister-in-law nor her sister-in-law is a down-to-earth person.
Yu Hui nodded, "Okay, our noodle shop is indeed not short of people."
"But what if Brother Yu really finds out that someone is selling a job and wants you to pay for it?"
That was all her hard-earned money.
Qian Lan frowned. She was also worried about this matter. "I'm still thinking about it."
Yu Hui rolled her eyes and gave her some advice, "Go to the bank and open an account. Deposit all the money you earn. When the day comes when you need to use the money to buy a job, you can say that you lost the passbook and can't find it."
"That's a good idea," Qian Lan clapped her hands. "After the fifteenth day of the first lunar month, I'll deposit all our family savings in the bank."
…
Qian Lan came home after buying groceries. Before she even entered the door, she heard her younger brother Qian Daxin arguing with Bao Pandi, and Yu Qiang trying to mediate.
"Okay, okay, stop arguing, it's just a small matter." Yu Qiang opened his arms to stop his mother.
"What's a small matter? That brat Qian Daxin did it on purpose."
Qian Daxin: "I didn't do that. Stop accusing me."
"What's going on?" Qian Lan asked her eldest son in a low voice.
Yu Jianshe sighed, "Grandma and my uncle were fighting over the toilet. My uncle went in first and stayed there for more than ten minutes before coming out. Grandma almost wet her pants and insisted that my uncle was stalling for time in the toilet, so we started arguing."
There were many people in the family, so it was really crowded to go to the toilet in the morning, so he and his brother went to Aunt Yu's house to use the toilet.
Qian Lan glanced at Yu Qiang who was trying to stop the fight, sneered, and turned into the kitchen with the basket.
Yu Qiang persuaded Qian Daxin and Bao Pandid for a long time before they calmed down.
In the morning, the Yu family had sweet potato porridge, some pickled vegetables, and some pickled radish.
"Is the porridge a little light this morning?" Yu Qiang asked Qian Lan while looking at the porridge in the bowl.
The latter took a sip of porridge, looked up and said, "Don't we still have sweet potatoes? There are so many more mouths to feed at home, and there are only four of us with a ration. If we eat like this, we won't even finish our mid-month ration before it's gone. Then we'll have to buy expensive grain directly."
Yu Qiang frowned, "...your noodle shop has a special approval from the Industry and Commerce Bureau, so we buy directly from the grain factory. The price isn't much higher."
Qian Lan sneered in her heart, "Our noodle shop only has special approval for buying flour from the grain factory. We don't have rice. For the second half of the month, our family can only eat noodles."
"Noodles are delicious. I love noodles the most." Qian Daxin said heartlessly while drinking porridge.
Bao Pandi secretly glared at Qian Daxin and his wife. Tsk, how much food do they eat from her son? She must drive them away as soon as possible.
Yu Qiang had a full breakfast of water. He would not return to the team until after the Lantern Festival, so he did not go to work.
After breakfast, he wanted to take a nap, but his nephew Yu Xiaofu started crying again.
Tomorrow is the Lantern Festival. Gu Qiuyan and her colleagues have two days off, the 14th and 15th, and will return to the team at 9 o'clock in the morning on the 16th day of the first lunar month.
On the morning of the 14th, Gu Qiuyan arrived home.
The children were very happy to see their sister back. After not seeing her for a few months, Gu Qiuyan had become darker.
"Have you applied the vanishing cream I gave you? Why are you getting darker?" Yu Hui touched Gu Qiuyan's face with her hand, and her face was not rough.
"Yes, we do drills and training every day. No matter how much we apply, it will still be black."
It’s black, so what? Gu Qiuyan doesn’t think there’s anything wrong with it.
"Is everything okay at home?" she asked.
Gu Hongmei stuffed the prepared malted milk into her hands and said, "I'm fine. I just miss you all the time."
Gu Qiuyan raised her chin and said, "I'm so good, but everyone is talking about me."
"Sister, you are so shameless. I like it so much." Gu Xixi hugged her cousin's legs and raised her little head and said.
"Well, you're getting bolder now, even daring to tease me." Gu Qiuyan pinched the fat on Gu Xixi's face.
“Hehehe…”
Gu Qiuyan took a sip of malted milk and said, "By the way, Mom, I saw your article in the newspaper too. I was so scared when I saw Xixi being taken away by kidnappers. Fortunately, she escaped unharmed and was able to save other kidnapped children."
Not to mention that Gu Qiuyan was frightened when she saw the newspaper, even Yu Hui and Gu Hongmei still feel scared when they think about it now.
"Everyone in our company is talking about you and my father. Our company commander and instructor told us to learn from you and my father, but they don't know that you are my father and my mother."
Every time she heard people in the company discussing Yaoba and Yaoma, she felt very proud and happy.
"What do you want to eat for lunch today?" Yu Hui asked with a smile.
Gu Qiuyan chuckled, "Braised pork."
"Okay, braised pork."
She guessed that Gu Qiuyan would definitely have a holiday for the Lantern Festival and might come back today, so she bought two more pounds of meat in the morning.
