Chapter 305 Unwilling to Get Married
"What about fruits?" He Shuyun was quite surprised when she heard He Jiaxin's words.
She had never seen anyone else eat fruit, so maybe they were eating it indoors.
"Yes, everyone eats." He Jiaxin nodded and spoke happily.
In the nursery, not only do children eat fruit, but each person is also given a small cup of malted milk.
There was meat in every meal, which was also the reason why it was expensive. Of course, you had to pay for food coupons, but not meat coupons.
Other nurseries don’t have these things. You can stay there for three or five dollars, but you don’t get these good treatments.
Basically, there is one person responsible for taking care of every three or five children, and they are absolutely attentive.
"This nursery is pretty good. I was wondering why it costs so much per month." He Shuyun sighed after hearing this.
Chen Yi explained: "Some parents think it's expensive, so they send their children to other nurseries, which are available in every factory."
Their second factory also has a nursery, which costs eight yuan a month, the pay is good, and there is meat at every meal.
But it’s not so careful, and there are no nutritional supplements, which is why it’s expensive.
He Mingcheng looked at her and said, "Wife, the child is in the nursery now, so you can just focus on taking care of the baby and don't have to worry about the things at home."
The person he cares about the most is definitely Chen Yi. As long as she gives birth to the baby safely, he will be relieved.
But he would never have children in the future. Seeing his wife so tired, he felt uncomfortable and wished he could be pregnant with Chen Yi instead.
Chen Yi nodded upon hearing this. She knew that she needed to be careful in the late stages of pregnancy. It was not her first pregnancy, so she knew more.
Looking at their happy family, Wang Jianjun felt a little bitter while listening to them.
"Jianjun, what's wrong with you? Tell us what's wrong and we can help you think of a solution." Seeing that he was not feeling well and didn't say anything, Chen Yi took the initiative to ask.
"I..." Wang Jianjun stammered, hesitant and unable to utter a word.
"Why are you so stubborn? Just say it when I tell you to!" He Shuyun knew her son had this temper, but she couldn't change it, and she was worried about him. (Stubborn means you can't get anything out of it even if you hit it with a stick.)
Seeing everyone looking at him, Wang Jianjun said, "Fang Xiaoli and I wanted to get married. I proposed, but she didn't agree."
The two have been dating for half a year, and it is normal to talk about marriage at this age.
However, considering their previous relationship, Chen Yi couldn't understand why they didn't agree.
"Why? What did she say?" He Shuyun asked first. As a mother, she was naturally more worried about her child.
Wang Jianjun sighed and said, "She said she wanted to be more stable and didn't want to get married so early."
He is not Fang Xiaoli. He is already 25 and will soon be 26, so he is a little anxious.
Fang Xiaoli is 22 years old this year, which is the right age for marriage. It doesn't matter whether she is in a hurry or not.
"Stable?" He Shuyun thought for a moment and said, "Is it because there is no house?"
They all have rural household registration, so it is normal for them not to have a house in the city. Now Wang Jianjun's household registration has been transferred to the factory, but it is a bit difficult to get a house.
The dormitory he lives in now has several people sharing one room, so it is not so easy to allocate a house.
After hearing what He Shuyun said, Wang Jianjun also thought it should be, "I don't know either."
"Why don't we buy a house?" He Shuyun sighed. They have to buy one sooner or later. After all, their children need a place to live when they get married.
Hearing this, Wang Jianjun said, "Mom, I only saved 200 yuan, this is not possible, right?"
He didn't know how much the house was worth, but the savings came from his frugal life, almost all of it was saved from his own pocket.
Besides, after buying the house, he had no money to buy new things and no money to pay for the betrothal gift.
He really liked Fang Xiaoli and wanted to be with her.
"It's okay!" He Shuyun waved her hand and said, "Your father and I have saved more than 200 yuan, which is enough!"
She calculated that it would be enough to buy a small house, as it would be for the couple and could also house their child in the future.
As for themselves, they planned to return to the countryside to retire when Chen Yi and his wife no longer needed them. The work points they earned would be enough to support themselves.
After hearing what she said, Wang Jianjun didn't say anything else. This matter was settled.
But Fang Xiaoli hasn't said anything yet, so he still has to go and ask again.
The next morning, He Shuyun hurried out to inquire about the house. If it was not arranged properly, it would be very difficult for her son to find a wife.
Chen Yi wanted He Mingcheng to help, but He Shuyun refused, so she went by herself.
It's someone else's family affair, so I didn't interfere.
In the afternoon, He Shuyun came back in a hurry. She went into the house and filled a large teacup of water before she breathed a sigh of relief.
"Aunt, have you found it?" Chen Yi asked, but she felt that it wouldn't be so fast.
After all, it's not that easy to find a house. The housing market in this city is quite tight.
Of course, most people are reluctant to spend that money on buying a house. They would rather live together as a family than buy a house.
He Shuyun smiled and replied, "I found it. It's a small yard, not very big."
"It will cost three hundred dollars. I'll ask Jianjun to take a look at it tomorrow. It will be a relief for our family."
She was quite pleased today, after all, after buying a house with a budget of 500 yuan, there would not be much money left.
Hearing this, Chen Yi said, "Three hundred yuan is not expensive but not cheap either. How is the house?"
He Shuyun replied: "The house is fine, just clean it up and scrape the putty."
Anyway, she thought it was pretty good.
Since that's what she said, Chen Yi naturally wouldn't interfere, as if she liked to meddle in other people's affairs.
When He Mingcheng came back in the evening and found out, he didn't ask any more questions. He just said, "Aunt, if you don't have enough money, just tell us. We have money here."
After all, she is my aunt, and she grew up in my family, so naturally I am more partial to her.
"No need." He Shuyun smiled and replied, "We have enough money. We are not getting married tomorrow. We can just buy the rest slowly."
Anyway, you don't need too many things, except bedding, pots and pans, so just buy something usable.
She felt that these were what life was all about, so she just had to do her best. If she could buy them, she would buy them. If she couldn't, there was nothing she could do.
No one in the family mentioned these things again. After all, she was an aunt, not a biological mother, and it would be bad to interfere too much.
This is what Chen Yi thought. As long as it was about money, she could help, but if it was about anything else and asked her to give advice, forget it.
Everyone has different ideas about how to live at home. How many years has she lived? It's better not to meddle in other people's affairs. If you meddle too much, it will cause problems.
Even though the house deal was settled, He Shuyun took Wang Jianjun to pay the money the next day.
If you like it, just pay the money. If Wang Jianjun doesn’t like it, then look for another one. After all, it’s the house they’re going to live in after they get married.
