Su Yan entered the space, and Lu Ting asked Yiming to play chess with his grandfather, while he and his younger brothers played Landlord around the grill.
His triplets are over five years old and don't need to be taken care of. As long as they don't run out and don't fall into the brazier while roasting fire, they can do whatever they want.
Seeing that Su Yan was not there, Zhong Lingshan pulled Chen Yuhe and He Na back to her room to chat.
"I'm talking to you two. You both objected to Dad's proposal for a house just now. Even though this yard is only two or three hundred square meters, it's worth three or four thousand yuan. Are you willing to give it to that brat Lu Yiming?"
He Na forced a smile and said nothing. She was willing, who the hell would be willing? She also had a son, so she naturally hoped that her father-in-law could be more considerate and give each family two or three rooms.
Chen Yuhe sighed, "What else can I do? This is the Lu family's ancestral home, and it can only be passed down to the eldest son and grandson."
Chen Yuhe was indeed unwilling to accept this. When she first got married, her husband mentioned the courtyard house. At that time, Lu Jin's two uncles had come together with her father-in-law to snatch this courtyard house.
Lu Jin said that this yard was left to his father by his great-grandfather, and his grandfather wanted to leave the house to his eldest brother, so no one else got a share.
When her husband returned to the Lu family, her father-in-law laid out the matter with them. Before he officially handed over the house, Lu Jin and his two younger brothers only had the right to live there.
Seeing that Chen Yuhe accepted it, Zhong Lingshan encouraged her, "Second sister-in-law, you don't have no sons. Your Lu Jin even owns a house. Do you plan to live like this for the rest of your life?"
"My husband said that their unit might expand, and the family compound will be rebuilt at that time, so I will definitely be able to get a house."
If their father-in-law didn't want to give them the house, what else could they do? Take it by force? How could they possibly take it from their eldest brother?
There is only one house. Are they going to force my father-in-law to sell it and divide the money among everyone?
Zhong Lingshan scoffed, "Maybe? When? This house will take at least a year or two to build, and you have to wait in line to get a room. I don't know if you will get one in the end. Maybe it will all be for nothing..."
Chen Yuhe patted his chest and said with confidence and pride, "Next time it will be our turn. Even if we can't get a house for the time being, it's okay. Don't we still have houses in the military compound?
Since your two families don't come back often, I can have two more. Didn't you argue with me when you gave birth to Jiaojiao? Now I gave birth to a son before you, right?
Even if you're having a son, you're still late compared to me. If it's also a girl, you'll probably have to have another one," said the naive Chen Yuhe bluntly.
Zhong Lingshan felt that her sister-in-law could not speak at all and could only stab people. No wonder her parents-in-law were not as enthusiastic towards her as they were towards her eldest sister-in-law, and her second brother was not as considerate to her as her eldest brother was to her.
"Second sister-in-law, after all these years you still don't know how to speak well. You don't even know how to say something auspicious on New Year's Day. I'm sure this baby will be a son."
"What if it's a daughter? Are you going to put her back and retrain her?"
"What are you talking about? If you can't speak, just shut up. If my daughter had another child, wouldn't Dad let Jiaojiao go back with us? She's old enough to take care of her sister."
Zhong Lingshan felt that she and Chen Yuhe just had different auras. Even though they were chatting happily, they would still end up arguing.
He Na also felt that her second sister-in-law was a little silly. These two people were exactly the same, and neither of them had fewer shortcomings than the other.
The third sister-in-law is a bit self-righteous and patriarchal. Don’t they notice the attitude of their parents-in-law towards them?
Look at the eldest sister-in-law again. Her parents-in-law never stand up to oppose anything she says. This is the status of the eldest daughter-in-law in the Lu family.
She also knew that because they rarely spent time together, the three daughters-in-law did not have much status in the hearts of their parents-in-law.
He Na laughed and teased, "Second sister-in-law, I thought if your second child was a girl, you would send her back to be raised?"
Zhong Lingshan seemed to be thinking that if the baby in her belly was really a girl, she might as well keep the baby for six months and send it back to her mother-in-law to take care of her.
She thought so in her heart, but she said something else. "I want to, but my husband doesn't agree. He wants me to quit my job and stay home to take care of the kids, cooking and doing his laundry."
"You'll lose dozens of dollars a month if you quit your job. Third brother, you saw your eldest sister-in-law quit her job, so you're asking you to quit too, right? Your eldest sister-in-law really doesn't set a good example. Her family isn't short of money, but our families are. How can you just quit your job so easily?"
He Na originally wanted to say that her sister-in-law had done a lot of harm to others, but she felt it was inappropriate and swallowed the words back.
That woman studied for so many years in vain, and then she quit her job just to go home and take care of her children. How can there be such a stupid person in this world?
If there is no one to take care of the triplets, you can pay to send them to a nursery. If you lose your job, it will be difficult for them to go to the hospital in the future.
A college student, bah, with her condition, no one knows how she managed to get into college. I heard she wasn't very good at studying before, and later people doubted her grades. Another high-ranking official's son, Su Yan, almost took away her college student status.
He Na suddenly thought, since her third sister-in-law took Lu Yiwei back home, could she leave Yi Han with her mother-in-law while she returned to work?
Zhong Lingshan replied, "Maybe that's the reason. My husband said my sister-in-law takes good care of the kids, and I need to take care of the kids myself to feel closer.
"My eldest brother has a high salary and is considerate of my eldest sister-in-law. Maybe he doesn't want my eldest sister-in-law to work so hard, so he asked her to quit her job, right?"
He Na thought of something and quickly agreed, "Yes, it's better to raise a child by yourself. Second sister-in-law, your Jiaojiao is grown up now. If you don't take her back, she will definitely be even less close to you when she grows up. Bring her back now and teach her well. She will definitely understand how difficult it has been for you all these years."
Your husband is capable and can easily support your family with his salary. If you don't listen to him, it will definitely affect your relationship.
You've been separated for so many years, are you going to quarrel over such a small matter? Look at the eldest and second sisters-in-law, their husbands are so attached to them."
He Na persuaded Zhong Lingshan with an attitude that was for her own good.
Zhong Lingshan originally planned to continue lobbying her husband tonight to let Jiaojiao stay at home. Her sister-in-law said that it would be closer if she raised the child by herself, and that listening to her husband would not affect the relationship between the couple, so she decided to take the child back!
Jiaojiao will be five years old in a few months. It should be no problem for me to go back and help her with washing clothes, dishes and sweeping the floor.
If Jiaojiao is obedient, she will have an easier time in the future, and maybe she can even help her take care of the children.
Taking the child back home will save her trouble and her husband will also have less worries. Most importantly, it will not affect the relationship between the couple. It really kills two birds with one stone.
