"My mother's household registration and the two children's household registration are all here with me."
When Qin Nian spoke, Shen Xianjun felt like the sky had fallen. So, he was the only one with a household registration in the family. When did he become all alone?! All these years, no one had told him!
Shen Xianjun looked at his mother with a accusatory expression.
"You didn't even ask. Besides, it's all your own fault. You should reflect on yourself. Alright, I need to go check my clothes. I'm going to the Summer Palace with your mother-in-law tomorrow."
Yang Yufen left the couple and went inside.
“Xianjun, Mom is homesick. We’ll go back with her to visit her grave. Can you ask if we can leave?”
Qin Nian no longer wanted to think about anything else. She hoped her mother-in-law would stay. If it was just to go back to the graves with her, it wouldn't have much of an impact on her. However, she knew that the higher-ups took this very seriously and that she couldn't make the decision on her own; she needed to apply for permission.
"Okay, I'll go and submit the report in a bit."
Shen Xianjun didn't think much of his mother's homesickness or his desire to visit his father's grave.
"Xianjun, does Mom have any other family members?"
Qin Nian suddenly realized that she really knew too little about her mother-in-law.
"No, the closest people to our family are Aunt Guixiang's family and the brigade leader and the others."
"So, your mother raised you all by herself?"
"Yes, I've never seen my mother's family since I can remember. They say the house collapsed under the weight of the snow and everyone was killed."
After Shen Xianjun finished speaking, he suddenly fell silent.
Things he had never paid attention to before, were brought up by his wife now, and he suddenly realized how difficult it must have been for his mother to raise him. He felt annoyed and confused by all the torment his grandmother had inflicted on his mother, because he was the only son and his grandmother doted on him.
He subconsciously sought to avoid harm and seek good fortune, and his mother always stood tall and bore everything, never uttering a word of complaint to him.
The couple remained silent for a long time until the children returned.
Qin Nian tossed and turned, unable to sleep soundly, so Shen Xianjun sat up and turned on the light.
"What's wrong?"
Perhaps he also had something on his mind, Shen Xianjun was not fast asleep, so when he sensed that Qin Nian, who was tossing and turning beside him, couldn't sleep, he simply sat up.
Qin Nian also sat up, looked at Shen Xianjun, and after a while, Qin Nian suddenly spoke.
What happened to your allowances over the years?
"Huh? The allowance? I gave it to Mom. Do you need money? Then I'll go ask Mom for it."
During the day, Shen Xianjun was only responsible for Qin Nian's safety and did not inquire about what Qin Nian and Fan Juan were doing.
"You don't have any on you at all?"
Qin Nian frowned slightly.
Shen Xianjun hesitated for a moment before finally getting up, opening the wardrobe, and after rummaging around for a while, turning around and handing the money to Qin Nian.
"That's all, 106.5 yuan. I've already given this month's allowance to Mom. If you need it, you can have this. I'll keep 6.5 yuan for myself."
This was something he had saved up for a long time.
Qin Nian looked at the scattered banknotes with some surprise.
"Here, you can keep it."
Qin Nian pushed the money back.
