When the children were so difficult to take care of, her mother-in-law only helped take care of them for a few months. Now that the children have finally grown up, her mother-in-law wants to interfere in her life again. She definitely doesn't want that.
She had previously agreed with Lu Ting that she would not look for a job in the next two years. Lu Ting said that she could live without working for the rest of her life.
Now her mother-in-law is advising her to find a job. Isn’t it because they have many children and the expenses are high, and it’s hard for her son to work alone?
Even if she didn't have the space and those treasures, Lu Ting's salary wouldn't let them starve. Moreover, she still had the space to back her up, as well as so much cash and antiques, that she could support even eight or ten more children.
Most mothers-in-law are like this. They don't interfere when you are busy, but when you start to have free time, they will come to take care of you.
In short, she just can't stand seeing you idle, and would rather her own son be the one idle, right?
Chen Yuhe hasn't worked for so many years, and Lu Jin's salary is not as high as Lu Ting's. Why didn't her mother-in-law find a way to get Chen Yuhe to work and find a job?
Su Yan said directly to Hua Min: "Lu Ting said that I can't work, just stay at home and take care of the children."
"It's not that I want you to go to work, but I think it's a shame for you to study for so many years and not become a doctor. Xiaojin's salary has increased by another level. It would have been better if you hadn't resigned." Hua Min said with some regret.
Su Yan sneered. If she didn't resign, who would take care of her children? If it weren't a time of unrest, she could spend some money to hire two nannies to take care of the children.
The children were born in turbulent times, and her mother-in-law wanted to help Lu Jin and Lu Chen take care of the children. What could she do? She could only do it herself, and when she was too busy, she would pay a neighbor to help take care of them.
As long as they don't hire a nanny and ask their neighbors for help, those troublemakers outside will naturally not dare to cause trouble for them.
No matter how hard or tiring it was, at least she had made it through. Just as she was about to breathe a sigh of relief, her mother-in-law came to cause trouble, and Su Yan felt a little uncomfortable.
After chatting for a few sentences, Su Yan went to do other things, and Hua Min also got up and left, leaving the group of people watching TV.
Su Yan didn't expect that just after her mother-in-law left, Chen Yuhe would come over to play with her little son. As soon as she entered the house and saw the people in the room, she exclaimed, "Sister-in-law, did you really buy a TV?"
Su Yan paused holding the broom. Isn't this an obvious thing? Is there any need to ask?
Su Yan nodded, "Yes, I bought the TV yesterday."
Chen Yuhe walked to the chest of drawers and reached out to touch the TV, but a group of children yelled, "You're blocking us from watching TV! Get out of the way!"
Chen Yuhe stepped aside, looking at the people in the room, some standing and some sitting, and said with a smile, "It's going to get more and more lively after my sister-in-law buys a TV."
Su Yan wanted to say, I don’t like this hustle and bustle at all. It seriously affects her life. If it weren’t for the children, she would not buy a TV.
Su Yan told Chen Yuhe, "Dad decided to buy a TV this year, so things will be lively over there soon."
Chen Yuhe exclaimed, "Are you serious? This is really great."
After Chen Yuhe finished speaking, she walked up to Su Yan and whispered, "Sister-in-law, I plan to get my IUD removed after the New Year."
Su Yan raised an eyebrow, "Oh? So soon?"
"Hengheng is over three years old, and I want to give him a younger brother. My sister-in-law gave birth to sons every time she had five children, so I also want to have another son."
"Well, it's fine if you like to have more children. As long as your third and fourth sister-in-law don't bring the children back, mother-in-law will definitely help you take care of them."
Isn't it true that the mother-in-law can't sit still and likes to meddle in her affairs? If she likes to be a nanny and meddle in other people's affairs, then she should just continue to be a nanny for them.
"Xiaochen and Xiaoyu won't leave the child to be raised by their parents. Even though they started working late, their salary is much higher than our Lu Jin's.
Especially Xiaoyu, the pilots receive various nutritional supplements every month, such as canned fruit, canned meat, sausages, chocolate... I heard they even have milk powder.
They eat breakfast in the army, and every meal has two taels of sugar and milk. When my son grows up, I will definitely find a way to get him to take the pilot exam.
Su Yan smiled. It is not easy to pass the test to become a pilot. The reason why Lu Yu passed was that his father-in-law was very far-sighted in sending them to the Air Force. In addition, he had studied in college for another year and his physical fitness was also good. If he did not have such background, it would not be so easy for a commoner to be selected.
Chen Yuhe originally married Lu Jin, a divorced man, because she was attracted by the Lu family's background.
Leaning against a big tree brings shade. If Lu Jin had not returned to the Lu family, he would probably still be working as a kitchen helper and would never have the opportunity to work in an office.
Chen Yuhe sat at Su Yan's house for an entire afternoon, then took the child back home. That evening, she told Lu Jin about his elder brother buying a TV.
"Lu Jin, your brother bought a TV yesterday, and now his house has been crowded with people watching TV these past two days."
Lu Jin put his hands under his head and looked up at the ceiling. "Two years ago, someone in the compound bought a TV. Big brother wasn't the first one to do so."
"My brother and his friends bought a 12-inch imported TV, which is more than a hundred yuan more expensive than ordinary TVs."
"Imported ones are a bit more expensive, but the quality is definitely better than domestic ones. I will buy a TV when our company allocates housing and we move."
"Don't buy the TV. Use the money for Hengheng to study and get married."
It doesn't cost much to marry off a daughter, and there is still the betrothal gift. But it costs a lot of money to marry a daughter-in-law, so she has to save more money for her son.
If her next child is also a son, the money they have will definitely not be enough.
"Lu Jin, didn't you say before that you made 700 or 800 yuan by writing articles when you were in school? Why don't you write anymore?"
"Haven't you seen how many people have been falsely accused for making a few typos? It's not easy to make money like that. I'd rather just stick to being a pediatrician.
Don't worry, even if I don't make a living from writing, I can still support you guys."
"Lu Jin, your sister gave birth to a son after five births. How about we have another child? I plan to get my IUD removed after the Chinese New Year."
"Three children are enough. If there are more, I will be under too much pressure."
"What's the pressure? We live with our parents now, so you don't have to be present for many things. Of the four sons of the Lu family, only ours has the least savings. Do the others have quite a bit of money?
Your parents know our situation and will definitely help us when the time comes. As long as we pay more attention to them, maybe your father will give us the courtyard house in the end."
Lu Jin said bluntly, "Don't dream. I grew up in my aunt's house for more than ten years. The reason why my parents were so concerned about us was because they felt they owed me.
After all, my eldest brother is the eldest son in the family and the pride of my parents. If there is anything good in the family, he will definitely be the first one to be considered. Have you ever seen my parents being mean to my eldest brother and his wife?"
Chen Yuhe disagreed. She said, "It's true that our parents haven't been mean to them, but they haven't stopped helping us take care of the children because of our eldest brother and sister-in-law! You know that my eldest sister-in-law even quit her job because of this."
