Chapter 125
Ye Fuyue wasn't worried about not being able to have children. After all, she had been able to have children in her previous life; it was just a matter of time.
"You said that women's lives are ridiculous. When you reach a certain age, you are urged to get married. Once you get married, you are urged to have children. One is not enough, and you are asked to have a second, third, and fourth child. It seems that this is how life is. There are not many moments to live for yourself and live as you please." Wu Qiaoer suddenly sighed.
Ye Fuyue looked at her in the darkness and teased, "Why are you suddenly so philosophical about life?"
"I'm just expressing my feelings." Wu Qiao'er paused and said, "I envy you. Although your parents didn't treat you well in the Ye family before, Chen Yao treats you very well. You can be said to have finally found happiness after all the hardships."
"You will eventually reap the rewards of your hardship." Ye Fuyue squeezed her hand. "As the old saying goes, it's a blessing to be ignorant. Sometimes, don't overthink it. People are destined not to live for themselves all their lives, and they can't live as they please. If you dwell too much on these things, you'll find life meaningless."
Wu Qiaoer said "hmm" softly and said nothing more.
The next morning, Wu Qiaoer got up early, and Ye Fuyue followed her.
"Why did you get up so early? Did I wake you up?" Wu Qiaoer asked.
"No. I have to go to the furniture factory to collect my salary today. How can I sleep?" Ye Fuyue winked playfully.
Wu Qiaoer knew that Ye Fuyue was providing furniture drawings to the furniture factory.
"A job like yours is pretty good. You can earn some pocket money every month. If I lose my job at the cannery, I'd like to find a similar job."
After thinking for a while, Wu Qiaoer said, "But I can't design furniture. I don't have any ideas about furniture."
"Fuyue, I never realized you could design furniture before."
Ye Fuyue revealed a mysterious smile and laughed, "There are many things you haven't noticed."
Wu Qiaoer snorted: "Virtue."
"Are you coming to stay here tonight?" Ye Fuyue asked her.
"I'm not coming. How can I stay at your house every day? That's ridiculous."
"Then you're going back home to live?"
"What else can I do?" Wu Qiao'er said, "I can only go home."
"If you want to come and live here, you can. There is an empty room at home." Ye Fuyue said.
"But I won't come. If my mother and I have another fight in the future, I'll come find you."
Ye Fuyue nodded and agreed: "Okay."
Chen Guifeng had prepared breakfast early in the morning, but Wu Qiaoer didn't feel like eating it. She said she didn't want to eat breakfast here and slipped away.
Not long after Chen Guifeng and Shen Shun left, Shen Yao came back.
While serving him breakfast, Ye Fuyue told him about Wu Qiaoer's visit to her last night.
At the end of her speech, Ye Fuyue suddenly thought of someone.
"How about introducing Xiang Jialiang to Wu Qiaoer?"
Shen Yao didn't have a particularly good impression of Wu Qiao'er. When he heard his wife say this, Shen Yao said, "It's fine if you think it's okay."
"I think it might work," Ye Fuyue convinced herself. "Before, I would have thought Xiang Jialiang's family was too large and Qiao'er would be wronged if she married him. But Xiang Jialiang said yesterday that he planned to rent a house and he found some ways to get one. This way, even if Qiao'er married him, the couple would just rent a house on their own and wouldn't have to fight with the family. It's pretty good."
"More importantly, Xiang Jialiang is a good guy and he's quite receptive to advice. We can really let him and Qiao'er give it a try."
Shen Yao ate while listening to Ye Fuyue finish: "Hearing you say that, the two of them can indeed give it a try."
"Isn't it?" After getting recognition, Ye Fuyue became more confident in her idea.
She didn't care about Chen Yao anymore. After eating, Chen Yao would clean up by himself, then go to wash up and take a nap, so he didn't need her anymore.
Ye Fuyue then went out and went to the cannery to find Wu Qiaoer.
Wu Qiaoer had just sat down in front of the production line when she was called out.
Seeing that it was Ye Fuyue looking for her, she was quite surprised: "What's wrong?"
Ye Fuyue told Wu Qiaoer everything about Xiang Jialiang. Finally, she asked, "How's it going? Do you want to meet him?"
"sure."
Wu Qiaoer was now completely indifferent to the idea of blind dates. No one's introductions could change her mood.
What's more, she felt that this person sounded quite reliable after listening to what Ye Fuyue said. More importantly, Wu Qiaoer felt that the person Ye Fuyue introduced to her was more reliable than those introduced by matchmakers.
"Okay, if you agree, I'll go talk to Xiang Jialiang. If he agrees, I'll arrange a time for you two to meet and talk." Ye Fuyue became a little excited.
"Yeah." Wu Qiaoer still looked indifferent.
"Wait for my news." Ye Fuyue said goodbye to Wu Qiaoer and walked towards the first factory.
When they were about to reach the gate of the factory, Ye Fuyue remembered that Chen Yao and Xiang Jialiang were on duty together last night. They were both on leave today, so Xiang Jialiang must have gone home.
Ye Fuyue sighed.
It was rare for her to be so excited that she wanted to immediately decide on a date and place for the two of them to meet. Now, she had to wait until Xiang Jialiang went to work tomorrow before she could tell him about this.
Some things really can't be rushed.
Ye Fuyue then turned around and went to the furniture factory to collect her salary.
It is already April, and Ye Fuyue's salary this month has exceeded one hundred yuan for two consecutive months, and this month it is as high as one hundred and thirty yuan.
When Director Li handed Ye Fuyue her salary, he smiled bitterly and said, "You're still smart, little girl! Your salary is almost as high as that of an eighth-level worker in our factory. In a few months, the money you'll receive will be much higher than the buyout price I originally wanted to offer. No wonder you said you didn't want a flat buyout at all."
Ye Fuyue smiled and said, "Director Li, the high dividends I receive mean that the furniture I design sells well, and the factory makes a lot of money. You know, not every piece of furniture I design sells well. If I want to get a higher salary, I have to work hard to design more furniture that sells well."
Director Li nodded: "That's true."
Of the furniture designs Ye Fuyue submitted, many sold poorly, far more than those that did well. However, precisely because a few designs sold well, Ye Fuyue received a larger share of the profits.
"You don't know, I was so worried about designing furniture that would sell well that my hair fell out in clumps." Ye Fuyue said exaggeratedly.
I am worried, but not to the point of losing my hair.
If she didn't exaggerate and let Director Li think that it was not easy for her to design a piece of furniture that would sell well, her design results would easily be ignored, and people would think that she was not worthy of such a large dividend.
