"Old Wu also said that once he recovers and can walk around on his own, the two of us will go to a senior university."
Wen Qiao asked curiously, "There's even a university for seniors?"
"Yes, there are government-run programs for retirees. They pay to enroll and learn something."
"What do you mean, Mom? You're still young. Even though you work at the Ministry of Foreign Affairs now, I think your potential is definitely more than that. You can't let your guard down."
Wen Qiao was truly inspired by her mother.
She hadn't even thought about these issues.
Wen Qiao had considered that her mother might have been reborn like her, but only after being reborn could she change her fate and future life. However, she was able to change her own mindset.
My mother is fifty years old, and she knows her life plan so clearly. She is still young. Does she really want to be a translator in the Information Department for the rest of her life?
Wen Qiao didn't mean to leave the Ministry of Foreign Affairs; rather, she wanted to improve herself.
You can do translation, but you can't only do translation.
"Mom, you taught me a lesson today, and I've learned it."
Lü Yazhi chuckled, "Don't talk about classes or anything. Take this money and do whatever you need to do. I know about the restaurant situation, and you've done a great job. I'm busy right now, worrying about your Uncle Wu's affairs, so I'll temporarily leave the restaurant to you. Manager Wang is in charge now, and I've been there to see him; he's more capable than me."
Lü Yazhi wanted to make money, but her thinking was simple: she wanted to earn money for her daughter.
With this manager around, as long as Wen Qiao visits once or twice a week, it won't interfere with her work. However, this will make Wen Qiao very tired and she won't have much time to spend with her children at home.
Lu Yazhi added that once Old Wu's health improves, she will go to the restaurant two or three days a week, so that Wen Qiao can go, or not go at all.
After speaking, she put down the money and left.
Wen Qiao looked at the money on the table, her thoughts a jumble of emotions.
She was planning for her child, and her mother was also planning for her child.
After getting married and having children, she only thought about her own children, but in her mother's eyes, she was also her mother's daughter.
Wen Qiao felt a lump in her throat. She went out to see Lü Yazhi off and said, "Take care on the road."
Lü Yazhi smiled and said, "It's not far, I'll be home soon."
Not long after Lü Yazhi left, Shen Jichuan came back from get off work. Da Bao and Er Bao wanted to buy some stationery, so the nanny took them to buy it, and San Bao went along to join in the fun.
When Shen Jichuan returned, the three children and the nanny were also back.
Wen Qiao had already put the money away and taken it upstairs.
That evening, it was handed over to Shen Jichuan.
Shen Jichuan wasn't surprised that his mother-in-law's restaurant was so profitable, but he was surprised that she had given him so much money at once.
"The restaurant still needs to operate, and if we give you all the money, how will the restaurant make a living? Buying a house is our own business, don't touch your mother's money."
Shen Jichuan was also thinking of having his mother-in-law save some money for her retirement.
Of course, he wasn't saying he wouldn't support his mother-in-law in her old age; he just thought that if the old woman had some money, she wouldn't be afraid of trouble in the future.
Wen Qiao said, "Just take it and use it. My mom said I'm her only daughter. If she doesn't give me the money she earns, who will she give it to?"
“My mom also said that we can’t just buy things for the first and second children; we have to buy things for the third child too. Just because the third child is a daughter doesn’t mean she gets less. You know, how come my mom’s thinking is so advanced? All the comrades and friends around here, even those who love their daughters, none of them have ever said they’d leave a room for their daughters. They all feel that their daughters belong to someone else.”
