Chapter 686: Living at Uncle's House
Xiao Aimei rolled her eyes in anger when she heard Shen Yanjun's words.
Now she finally understood what it meant to forget her mother after getting married.
I have raised my son for more than 20 years with good food and drink. Now that he is finally making money and can be filial to me, he prefers to love his wife!
Xiao Aimei didn't think she was an evil mother-in-law, but she had never seen a son who didn't take his own mother seriously.
Xiao Aimei glared at Shen Yanjun fiercely, and then looked at Yu Manqi fiercely, "Yanjun is going to work, and he will live in the single dormitory in the factory. You just stay at home."
Yu Manqi wanted to live in the county town. Although she didn't become a worker, Shen Yanjun was already a worker. Of course, she had to follow Shen Yanjun to the county town! How could she stay in the production team? Yu Manqi looked at Shen Yanjun anxiously, "Yanjun, I... I can't bear to leave you!"
The two have been married for more than a year and have no children. Their relationship is at its best. Not only Yu Manqi is reluctant to leave Shen Yanjun, but even Shen Yanjun himself is reluctant to leave Yu Manqi.
There was no need for Manqi to say anything more, Shen Yanjun spoke up, "Mom, my uncle and aunt have so many empty houses! Why should I live in a single dormitory? It's not as good as my uncle and aunt's house. Let Manqi go with me, and she can wash my clothes. My uncle and aunt and I both go to work, and Manqi can cook and clean at home, so my uncle and aunt won't be too lonely, don't you think?"
Hearing this, Xiao Aimei hesitated.
Although Xiao Aimei had never worked in the factory, she had talked to Qian Aiju and Xiao Aiguo about many things in the factory, and she also knew what the situation was like in the single dormitory.
There are sometimes six, seven or eight bunk beds in one room, and more than a dozen people can live in one room.
If it was a little girl, it would be fine, as everyone likes cleanliness and the house would be habitable.
But if there are more than a dozen men, can the house still be lived in? Shen Yanjun is the only child of the old Shen family. Although he has been rich for so many years, he has never suffered any hardship, let alone squeezed on a kang with others, let alone lived with more than a dozen people.
Besides, what Shen Yanjun said was right. Xiao Aiguo was Shen Yanjun's uncle, and now they worked in the same factory. Xiao Aiguo's family had a house, so it wouldn't be too much for Shen Yanjun to live there.
Seeing Xiao Aimei's hesitation, Qian Aiju knew what she was thinking, so she said, "It's okay for you to live in our house, but you just started working, and your monthly salary is only 13.5 yuan. When Xiulan first started working, she got this salary. You all know that there is only so much food for a month. Yanjun is at an age when he can eat, and this salary is not enough to support him. Besides, Yanjun went to work in the county town, and his household registration was transferred. Doesn't that mean there is one less person to share the food rations? Although Manqi's household registration is still there, if there is one less person working, there will be no food rations. At the end of the year, how much less food will be shared!"
Qian Aiju was telling the truth. Xiao Aimei made up her mind instantly after hearing it. "Yanjun, you go first. After two years, when your salary has gone up and you can apply for a single room, you can let Manqi go with you! If we lose you and her in our family, you can calculate how much less food we will have to eat each year!"
