Yu Jiu and Zhang Yan easily persuaded Yu Caihong.
Over the next few days, Yu Caihong followed them around the capital, visiting all sorts of novel and fun places. After she had had her fill of fun, she called her husband to discuss bringing the children to the capital.
"How's things at home? Are your parents still coming to cause trouble?"
He first inquired about the current situation, and her husband sighed deeply.
“They’re still making a fuss. My dad needs money for surgery, and they won’t give up until our family comes up with it. But where are we going to find so much money?”
If everyone pools their money and it's just a little short, they can borrow it, but asking them to borrow all 60,000 yuan is unacceptable.
"Why don't you stay with your friend for now? Are you having fun there? Come back in a while."
It's too chaotic here right now, and he doesn't want Yu Caihong to bring the child back yet.
“It’s so much fun! My friends took me to so many places I’d never been before, I’d only heard about them. It’s so much fun! Why don’t you bring your kids here too? Once you’ve seen all the scenery here, you might not want to go back.”
"This is what I'm thinking: why don't we settle down in the capital? We can give up our house and jobs there. We can even sell the house for some money and bring the kids to the capital. The schools here are better, so the two kids can receive a better education."
There are many opportunities to make money here. Look at my friends, they are all so rich. Why don't we come to the capital and give it a try? We can also get away from your parents.
I think the way your parents and older brother are making a scene won't help no matter how much time passes. I can't hide out here forever either, so we might as well just move away. That way, they won't be able to find us, and they won't have anything to cause trouble for.
Yu Caihong first laid a brief groundwork before getting straight to the point, expressing her desire to move to the capital. After exploring the area, she realized that the capital truly offered many things they had never experienced before. Settling here would broaden her horizons and allow her to escape her troubles.
Even if life is a little tough, it's okay, especially since Zhang Yan and Yu Jiu will help them. They even said they'd give them a house, so life will be even better than before. Why hesitate?
However, she hasn't told her husband about the house yet.
"Settle down in the capital? Isn't that too far? It's also far from your parents' place."
Her husband hesitated, after all, going from their doorstep to the capital, such a far place, was not an easy decision to make.
"It's far, but there's no other way."
"It's not impossible for us to settle down near my parents' home, but it's not as developed there. We might not be able to find jobs easily, and even if we do, the salaries wouldn't be very high, making it difficult to support a family. It's better to come directly to the capital."
Besides, your parents know where my family lives. If they really want to find them, they can. But they'll just cause trouble and add to their burden. It's better to move further away. When you have time and are earning money, you can go back to see them.
Anyway, even if I stay with you, my parents don't visit often.
Yu Caihong spoke frankly, saying that everyone has a job and is busy with life. A 5-hour drive or a 12-hour drive doesn't really make much difference; we only see each other once every year or two, or even every few years. So what does it matter if it's a little farther?
"This is too sudden. Let me think about it first. You guys have fun first, and you should also call home and ask your parents for their opinion."
Her husband couldn't make a decision right away, so he asked Yu Caihong to call back and ask her parents what they thought. Yu Caihong nodded in understanding.
"Okay, then think about it first, there's no rush."
The two chatted for a while before hanging up. Afterward, she called her parents and two children. When she told her parents about it, her parents and older brothers all expressed their support.
"Big cities are great. It's good that you can settle down there. You're also far away from his parents and their family. You'll definitely have a good life. What's wrong with being far away? As long as you're determined, you can always get around."
Besides, your friends have been so sincere in saying they'd help you, they'll definitely treat you well. Why don't you settle down in the capital? That way we can visit you later and also have a trip to the capital; we've never been that far before.”
"Sure, once we settle down here, we'll bring you all over to have some fun."
Yu Caihong happily agreed, and the children eagerly chimed in, saying they wanted to go to the capital. Yu Caihong reassured them a bit more before hanging up. She felt it was about time; even if her husband was initially reluctant, a couple more days of persuasion would likely get him to agree, and the decision to move to the capital would essentially be made.
"Should we look for jobs first, or find a place to live first? Should we go look at some places beforehand?"
Yu Caihong excitedly asked Yu Jiu and Zhang Yan, because the small villa was not yet completed and they could not move in for a while, so they would definitely have to rent a house first, which is why she asked this question.
"Let's find a job first. Once we have a job, we can find a place to live nearby. There's no rush. Your husband and children can stay with us for now. We have two spare rooms. You can share one room with the two children and the other with your husband. It's fine to make do for a while."
Yu Jiu immediately made arrangements.
"Okay, then I'll leave it to you."
Yu Caihong, shameless as ever, readily agreed.
For the next few days, she called her husband and children every day. She called her husband to persuade him to move to the capital, and she called her children to tell them about new and interesting things, and to tell them to behave well at their grandparents' house and not to make a fuss.
After three days of this back and forth, Yu Caihong's man finally relented.
“Okay, let’s go to the capital to develop. I’ll quit my job and pack my things now. Do you want to come back for a visit? Or can I help you quit your job too, so you don’t have to travel back and forth?”
Yu Caihong asked considerately.
"I think I should go back too. I need to bring both children over, and I also need to go back to see my parents one more time."
"Okay, then I'll get on with things here first. Should we sell the house, or keep it?"
Her man asked again.
"Of course we have to sell it. There's no point in keeping it. We won't be living there anymore. Besides, if we leave, the house will still be there. Isn't that just letting your parents and older brother take over? No way, we have to sell the house."
Yu Caihong was very firm in her stance on this matter. Her husband had originally intended to sell the house, but after hearing her say this, he didn't hesitate and quickly agreed.
"Okay, then I'll go and see if I can sell the house."
