Chapter 448
"I also told Xiaomei that if I really believed that having a baby was your top priority, I wouldn't have agreed to let you take the college entrance exam. Although having a child to continue the family line is indeed important, you're still young and it doesn't matter when you have a baby. It's better to finish your studies first, get a good job, and provide a better environment for your child to grow up in."
Miao Xiaomei continued, "After discussing the matter of having a baby with my mother-in-law, I realized she's quite open-minded, unlike the other mothers-in-law I've known. Before, I was just too prejudiced and stubborn."
Chen Guifeng smiled with relief and said, "Your mother-in-law is really a nice person, and you are also very nice. Just start chatting. Look at how close you two are now, like mother and daughter."
Miao Xiaomei and Aunt Donghong smiled at each other, their faces flushed.
When checking out, Ye Fuyue still gave them a 20% discount.
Ye Fuyue explained, "Last time, when the people from the compound came to show their support, I gave them a 20% discount. It's your first time here, so you should get the same discount as them."
"Okay, let's take advantage of it this time." Aunt Donghong said with a smile.
…
When Ye Fuyue and Shen Yao’s university was about to go on vacation, Shen Shun’s college entrance examination results came out.
There was no surprise, no miracle, Shen Shun did not pass the exam.
The moment Chen Guifeng heard the news, she was stunned.
She thought to herself: As expected, I didn’t pass the exam. Even the Bodhisattva couldn’t save Shen Shun’s grades.
She also thought: Shen Kang and Shen Yao gave her less worries, so God sent Shen Shun to bother her. It's impossible for her to have all the good things and peace of mind.
While Chen Guifeng was worrying about Shen Shun's future, Shen Shun acted as if his bad grades were not his own and ran out together with Fan Hua all day long - oh, by the way, Fan Hua also didn't pass the exam and his grades were comparable to Shen Shun's.
Chen Guifeng couldn't help but complain to Ye Fuyue, "He did so badly on the test, and he still has the nerve to play around all day. I think he should repeat the year and try again next year."
When Chen Shun came back from playing outside all day, Chen Guifeng said to him in a bad mood: "Why do you play outside every day?"
"Today, Fan Hua and I went to see Uncle Tian Hao making a crib. Uncle Tian Hao said that the crib he made before was broken, and Aunt Zhenzhen is about to give birth, so he has to make a new one. Fan Hua and I are learning how to make a crib." Shen Shun said this with quite pride.
Chen Guifeng became increasingly annoyed and said, "I've made up my mind. You should repeat your studies for a year and take the exam again next year."
Shen Shun opened his eyes wide in shock and wailed, "I won't repeat the year! I just don't like studying. Even if you ask me to take the test ten more times, I won't pass it."
"If you don't repeat your studies and take the college entrance exam, what are you going to do?" Chen Guifeng asked, "Wait for me to buy you a job? Jobs are so scarce these days, and there's no job for you to buy!"
Shen Shun didn't know what else he could do if he didn't take the college entrance exam. He just knew very well that he didn't want to study, and if he really asked him to study again, he would most likely fail.
"You don't study and you don't have a job. You can't ask me to support you forever. How long can I support you?" Chen Guifeng said with deep sorrow.
Shen Yao said: "If he doesn't like to study, forcing him is useless. I will go to the first factory to ask if I can arrange for him to work there as an apprentice."
Chen Guifeng sighed: "Okay, if he doesn't want to go to school anymore, this is the only way."
She then said to Shen Yao, "If there's anything that requires money, I'll pay for it."
Shen Yao nodded: "Okay."
Chen Shun glanced at Ye Fuyue and said hesitantly with a thick face: "Can you ask your sister-in-law to help ask Xiangyang Furniture Factory to arrange for me to be an apprentice there? I like carpentry. If I have a job, I want to do this."
Chen Guifeng smacked Shen Shun on the head with a slap. "How dare you! You don't study hard and can't find a job, but your brother doesn't find a job for you, and you think it's not enough. You even want to trouble your sister-in-law to ask someone to find you one too!"
Shen Shun knew that he was too shameless to make such a request, so he hesitated just now. Now that he was hit by Chen Guifeng, he hugged his head and said, "I was just talking, just pretend I didn't say anything."
Ye Fuyue didn't think there was anything wrong with Shen Shun's request. After all, she had introduced Wu Qiaoer to the Xiangyang Furniture Factory. Shen Shun was not only her husband's younger brother, but he also always helped her take care of Hao Haoranran and Qiqi.
only……
"There's something I forgot to tell you," Ye Fuyue said. "I stopped designing furniture for Xiangyang Furniture Factory last month. Firstly, the bun shop was too busy and I couldn't handle it. Secondly, Director Chen was transferred, and Director Cai was no longer in charge of furniture production. I didn't want to get along with the new leadership, so I terminated my cooperation with Xiangyang Furniture Factory."
Ye Fuyue had discussed this with Shen Yao. She had wanted to tell Chen Guifeng as well, but she got busy and forgot about it.
"I was wondering why you haven't been to Xiangyang Furniture Factory for a while. So that's why." Chen Guifeng said, "It's better not to cooperate with Xiangyang Furniture Factory. You can relax a little. The bun shop is enough to keep you busy."
Ye Fuyue nodded. The money in her bankbook was growing, and the bun shop was doing well, so she wanted to relax a bit.
"So I can't help with what Shen Shun said." Ye Fuyue said.
Chen Shun had long regretted what he had said just now. Now that he knew that Ye Fuyue had not cooperated with Xiangyang Furniture Factory, he regretted even more that he had been so reckless in letting Ye Fuyue introduce him to Xiangyang Furniture Factory.
“I was just talking nonsense just now, just pretend you didn’t hear it.” Shen Shun waved his hands repeatedly.
Chen Guifeng glared at him and said to Shen Yao, "Shen Shun's work depends on you paying more attention."
"Yeah." Shen Yao nodded calmly.
…
The school holidays were approaching, and there were fewer classes, mostly exams. Ye Fuyue could spend more time at the bun shop. After all, there she could study for exams and help Zhong Lan and Cui Li, making it a perfect balance.
Ye Fuyue was helping to clear the tables and chairs when she heard someone calling her in surprise, "Ye Fuyue?"
Ye Fuyue was also surprised when she heard the voice. She looked at Yang Lu, Zhang Huiyun, and Li Juxiang standing outside the bun shop, staring at each other.
"Why are you here?" Li Juxiang spoke first.
She noticed the rag in Ye Fuyue's hand and the way she was wiping the table, and wondered in astonishment, "Are you working here?"
Zhang Huiyun was also confused: "Isn't your husband quite well off? He and your mother-in-law treat you very well. Why do you still need to work part-time to earn money while studying?"
Before Ye Fuyue could say anything, Yang Lu looked at the sign above her head, pondered for a moment, and suddenly an idea flashed in her mind. She said, "Could this bun shop be owned by you?"
