Chapter 78 Sister-in-law Yu is unhappy
The old 28-inch bicycle that Qi Jingchuan used before had a tall, heavy, and sturdy frame, which made him more stable when riding, but it was more suitable for tall men like Qi Jingchuan.
The 26-inch slant bike in front of us is relatively small and lightweight, making it flexible and effortless to ride, which is very suitable for petite people like Cen Yan.
However, as far as she knows, this style of 26-inch diagonal line is not yet widely used, and it is several tens of yuan more expensive than the 28-inch regular line.
As Cen Yan pondered this, she got on her bicycle and rode around the family compound twice, finding nothing amiss.
"Everything's fine, Qi Jingchuan, thank you. But you traded your old bicycle for a bicycle ticket, what will you do when you go to the army?"
Cen Yan rode on her bicycle, looking at the man with a somewhat complicated expression.
Qi Jingchuan didn't mind. "The military base is only a few kilometers away from the family compound. Running back is like extra training. It's a good deal to spend a little more money to get a new bicycle."
“Okay, if you say it’s a good deal, then it’s a good deal. I’ll ride it to work tomorrow.” Cen Yan smiled.
Aunt Tang, who was standing nearby, seized on the key question: "Cen Yan, did you really pass the interview at the health center?"
Seeing the women around her pricking up their ears to ask questions, Cen Yan nodded, "Yes, I'll be a nurse at the health center from now on."
"Then if we ever have a headache or fever in the future, we can just go to the health center and find you directly!"
The way the women looked at Cen Yan was genuine admiration; after all, she was from a health center!
Cen Yan passed the interview, wow, that's really impressive.
"If you need any help, please let me know. I will definitely help if I can. It's getting late, so Jingchuan and I will head back now."
Cen Yan carried a vegetable basket, while Qi Jingchuan pushed his bicycle into the yard, closed the gate, and blocked his sisters-in-law from gossiping and staring.
Sister Yu also passed the interview and became a childcare worker in the Yuhong Class, which is commonly known as a nursery.
My usual duties include helping to look after the children and do chores like cleaning. I earn sixteen yuan a month for that.
She was so excited that she waved her hand and spent a lot of money on half a pound of fruit candy on her way back, intending to show it off to the military wives.
But to my surprise, as soon as I got back, I heard my sisters-in-law talking under the tree, saying that Cen Yan had passed the interview at the health center and had officially become a nurse.
Not only that, Qi Jingchuan also bought her a 26-inch bicycle to make her commute to and from get off work every day more convenient.
Now, everyone in the compound praises Qi Jingchuan for loving his wife and everyone praises Cen Yan for being capable. How can Sister Yu swallow this insult?
Aunt Yu cleared her throat. "Comrades, come and have some candy! Also, I'll be working in the Red Education Class from now on..."
"Actually, it's a blessing for Commander Qi to marry a wife like Sister-in-law Cen. With a nurse at home, he won't have to worry about headaches or fevers anymore. When he gets old, he'll have a professional to take care of him. How wonderful is that? Especially for someone like Commander Qi who risked his life when he was young and has many hidden injuries, he needs a nurse wife by his side to care for him."
"That's right, a man who mistreats his wife will never have any wealth. It's only right that Commander Qi treats Sister-in-law Cen well! Only now that she's old is Sister-in-law Cen willing to stay with him. Otherwise, why would someone as beautiful as Sister-in-law Cen suffer on the island with Commander Qi?"
"..."
Aunt Tang and the other military wives were chattering away, ignoring Sister Yu.
Sister-in-law Yu was so angry that she stuffed the fruit candies into her pocket.
"Fine, don't eat then! I didn't want to give you any anyway! All you do is talk about is Cen Yan, she's been bewitching you, hasn't she!"
After shouting loudly, Sister Yu turned and left. She had no intention of associating with these sycophantic women.
Seeing Cen's condition, Aunt Tang and the others exchanged bewildered glances. "What's wrong with Yu's sister-in-law?"
"I don't know. Maybe she was upset after being criticized by Sister-in-law Cen before. She's not happy about hearing about Sister-in-law Cen's good news. Let's talk about our own things."
