Chapter 89: Birth
Ping An grinned, "Mom has gone to work and won't be back until around twelve."
"Hey! Brother Wenjun, your sister-in-law still has a job?" Chen Wenhai was very surprised.
Even Zhou Shuifang and others were surprised.
Chen Wenjun nodded and explained, "Aqin cooks for the workers at the construction site. It was Aqin who asked her boss to build this cement road."
These days there is a job that everyone envies, no matter what it is.
When Chen Yongding heard that Lin Qin had a job, he immediately started praising her. Zhou Shuifang also followed suit, completely forgetting how she had talked about her behind her back before.
Everyone picked some vegetables and gave them to Lin Yi.
Lin Yi was busy in the kitchen.
The Chen Wenhai brothers were playing with their two children on the cement floor, while Chen Wenjun was accompanying Grandpa Chen and others in the yard to bask in the sun and make tea.
The years are quiet and good.
Grandpa Chen looked at the four people playing from time to time, and suddenly looked at Chen Wenjun, "You married a good daughter-in-law."
Chen Wenjun was stunned for a moment, and Grandpa Chen pondered and said, "I used to think Ping An was timid and cowardly, which made me feel sorry for him. I never thought he would be so cheerful. It's all thanks to your wife."
In the past, he always believed that if there was a stepmother, there would be a stepfather, and he always held a wait-and-see and critical attitude towards Lin Qin, but now looking at Ping An's look, he had to admit that he was narrow-minded.
Chen Wenjun grinned, "Grandpa doesn't know, but Aqin cares a lot about Ping'an. It's not an exaggeration to say that she treats Ping'an as her own child. Before, Ping'an was with me, at most he was well fed and clothed. After Aqin came, she would take him to get a haircut, buy him clothes, trousers and shoes, and she was also very concerned about the child's education.
Previously, the two children were bullied at Anshanshe Primary School, and Aqin took the two children there to make trouble, and even had a fight with the children's teacher. Later, the Education Bureau and the police station came, and the Education Bureau arranged for the two children to go to the Municipal Experimental Primary School. "
Zhou Shuifang suddenly realized, "So that's how it is. I asked Ping An that day, but he didn't tell me. I was wondering why your child went to the Municipal Experimental Primary School."
Chen Yongding and Grandpa Chen thought more. Lin Qin could make such a fuss for the child, which meant she must hold the child at the top of her heart. Ping An would definitely not have a hard time in the future as he had such a stepmother.
Thinking of this, Grandpa Chen said earnestly: "You two don't have children yet, and the house is already built, so you can consider having another child. After all, the house is big, so you don't have to worry about not having a place to live."
Lin Yi, who came out with the dishes, seemed to have found a soulmate and echoed excitedly, "I thought so too, but I just haven't had the chance to tell them. You said that family planning is so strict now, people can't have children even if they want to. You have the conditions, why don't you hurry up? Anyway, we have Ping An and Ya Ya in our family, whether it's a boy or a girl, they are our treasures."
The two old men found a common topic and talked about the marriage of Chen Wenhai and Chen Wenjiang.
"I originally wanted to build a boat for my eldest grandson. I heard from him that all the boat people in Nangang will go ashore. I wonder if the same arrangement will be made here. If so, there will be no point in building a boat." Grandpa Chen frowned.
Chen Wenjun said quickly: "We will also have a unified plan here. I heard about this when I went to the Land and Resources Bureau to do some work. But it won't happen so soon. I estimate it will take another ten years."
"What? Ten years or so? Then the ship has to be built!" Zhou Shuifang frowned, thinking about how to deal with it better.
Chen Wenjun didn't dare to give blind advice to others, so he stopped at the right time.
The family had dinner at Nanyu and then left.
After getting on the boat, Zhou Shuifang exclaimed: "I didn't expect Wenjun's house to be so beautiful. I am moved."
Chen Yongding shook his head. "It's no use being tempted. Both of our sons need to get married, so we can't do it this way. Now we have to consider whether to build a ship or just buy a piece of land and build a house."
Grandpa Chen pondered and said, "Let's build a ship. There are still ten years to go. Who knows what the situation will be like!"
Zhou Shuifang was a little hesitant, "Dad, you see, Wenjun's life has become better after marrying a wife from the land. I was thinking, if our family also buys land and builds a house on the land, and marries Wenhai to a wife from the land, will our future life be as prosperous as Wenjun's?"
Grandpa Chen paused, then shook his head, "How could people on land possibly look down on us boat people! Wenjun's wife is a special case, and they both stumbled upon a good match by accident. You can't expect Wenhai to have such good luck.
What if I marry a wife who has high standards and then starts to look down on this and that, how can I live my life?"
Zhou Shuifang was left unable to refute.
Chen Wenhai was calm.
"Mom and Dad, I think you should stop worrying about it. We still have to go to Nangang to work after the New Year. Who knows what will happen next? Besides, it's getting more and more prosperous there, with a lot of goods coming in and out. We all want to work with them on the ship. Even if we marry a wife, she will be left alone. Why bother?"
Zhou Shuifang didn't like what she heard, so she scolded her two sons, but she didn't mention the marriage again.
When Lin Qin returned home at noon, she found out that her family had already entertained guests.
Lin Yi left some food for her and whispered to her, "You and Wen Jun should hurry up and have a baby."
Lin Qin was stunned. "Dad! Why are you talking about this out of the blue?"
Lin Yi glanced at her unhappily, "Your mother passed away early, so I have to be both your father and mother! Since you don't care, I can only remind you that you should have a baby while you are still young. Only when you have a child of yours can this family feel like a real home. Otherwise, you will just be living together and people will gossip about you."
Lin Qin was at a loss as to what to do, so she just picked the couple up and walked away.
Whether in the past life or this life, she and Chen Wenjun were a couple in name only. In the past life, she felt that life was meaningless and lived in a makeshift way. In addition, she lived on a boat and did not have the conditions or the mind to do so.
After living a new life, with Lin Yi and Yaya on the fishing boat, I have no conditions to think about that kind of thing.
Now that she has a house, a brand new big bed and private space, she dares not think about it anymore.
At the same time, Chen Wenjun was also distracted by Lin Yi and Grandpa Chen's urging for the birth, but he was still secretly looking forward to it.
Seeing Lin Qin hiding in the room with a red face, Chen Wenjun immediately stood up and looked at her with burning eyes.
Lin Qin was startled and covered her chest. "You are so scary. Why are you hiding in the room with the bamboo curtains drawn in broad daylight?"
"Take a nap." Chen Wenjun said concisely.
The light in the room was dim. Lin Qin didn't think much about it. She took out the money she had on her and locked it in the drawer. Then she went to the bathroom to wash her face. As soon as she returned to the room, she was hugged by Chen Wenjun.
"Wife, grandpa and our dad talked about having children today. Shouldn't we get things done?"
Lin Qin's face instantly turned red, and under Chen Wenjun's extremely aggressive gaze, she reluctantly gave in to him.
Afterwards, the two people who rarely took naps actually had a sound nap.
It was already past three in the afternoon when I woke up again.
Chen Wenjun took Lin Qin out fishing in high spirits.
