An Guoren was even more surprised.
"Can you really earn this much money as a waiter?"
Shen Yulan said, "Brother-in-law, our country's economy is developing very rapidly now, and people have more job options. Not only can they be workers, teachers, and doctors, but self-employed individuals are also developing rapidly, especially in this area, where the tourism industry is gradually booming, and being a waiter is a very popular profession!"
He Haowen despised An Guoren's discrimination against women. He wanted to refute An Guoren's statement that women only knew how to serve dishes.
"Brother-in-law, don't think that being a waiter is easy. These days, restaurants have high hiring requirements. They don't want people who are too young, too old, or illiterate. It's really hard to find someone like my sister who meets all the requirements!"
Two knowledgeable and cultured college students took turns conveying information to An Guoren, who was greatly shocked.
In his eyes, most women should never leave the house; all they do is wash clothes, cook, and have children, because most of his coworkers' wives are like that.
He looked at He Shufang with a completely new perspective.
His wife has so many good qualities? How come he didn't notice them before?
"Guoren, do you believe me now?" He Shufang was unusually proud. "If I go out to work, our family will have double the income!"
With his wife earning money, An Guoren was more than willing.
"If you go to work, who will take care of me and the children?"
He frowned unhappily upon hearing this.
Accustomed to male chauvinism, he still thinks of himself first.
They were afraid that if He Shufang went out to work, she would no longer be able to enjoy the treatment of a local tyrant.

He Shufang said, "You don't need to worry about that. Our family will continue as usual. I start work at ten o'clock, so it won't interfere with making breakfast or preparing lunch for you and the children in advance. I can rest for two hours from three to five in the afternoon, and I can go home and cook dinner."
After thinking for a long time, An Guoren nodded and said, "That works. As long as I can run back and forth between the two places."
Throughout the entire process, he never felt that it was difficult for He Shufang to work and take care of her family at the same time.
He just felt that it was a very worthwhile thing for his wife to be able to go out and earn money without neglecting to take care of him.
Many men's wives don't even earn money!
He Haowen couldn't help but say, "Brother-in-law, my sister will be working and will have to travel back and forth between the two places. It will definitely be very tiring. You should do some housework too. The house belongs to both of us. Don't always let my sister suffer alone."
An Guoren snorted dismissively:
"What kind of man does housework? People will laugh at me if word gets out! Don't I work hard enough outside? Go look at my coworkers, every single one of them has their wife running around taking care of them when they get home."
He Haowen's handsome face twitched a few times, he was just short of throwing a punch at An Guoren's arrogant face.
"Haowen, you're a man too, all you do is talk! I don't believe you'll actually help your wife with housework after you get married!"

"It's not tiring! It's just a bit busy during mealtimes, but I'm physically fit, so a few trips are nothing! The food at the restaurant is really good, both meals have meat in them, the owners are so generous!"
For three days in a row, He Haowen and Shen Yulan saw that He Shufang was adapting well and An Guoren had no objections, so they were relieved.
The two returned to the capital on the fourth day of the first lunar month.
On the seventh day of the Lunar New Year, He Haowen couldn't wait to pick up Shen Yulan to go to the Civil Affairs Bureau to get their marriage certificate.
The two of them tacitly dressed up.
He Haowen put on a new Zhongshan suit, got a haircut, and looked both refreshed and handsome.
Shen Yulan applied osmanthus oil to her hair, tied a red ribbon at the ends, and also applied some powder and rouge to her face before putting on a magenta knitted sweater.
When she doesn't wear makeup, she is as beautiful as a lotus emerging from clear water; when she wears a little makeup, she is like a noble flower in a wealthy family.
"Honey, you look so beautiful today. Don't rush to wash your face when you get back; let me admire you a few more times."
Shen Yulan sat on the back of the bicycle, her pretty face slightly flushed: "Don't call me that, I'm not your wife yet!"
"It will be ready in another half hour."
Since it was the first day back to work after the Lunar New Year, there weren't many people at the Civil Affairs Bureau, and the two of them received their marriage certificates without any problems.
Looking at the festive red color, Shen Yulan felt a little dazed.
She used to live a life where her husband was away from home and she was bullied by her mother-in-law and sister-in-law.
Every day during that time, she had to swallow her anger.
Her family lived far away, and Chen Feng didn't care about her. When she felt wronged, she could only wrap herself in a blanket and cry silently at night.
Who could have imagined that in just a few years, she would be admitted to university, meet the talented young man He Haowen, and even enter into her second marriage.
It felt like a dream, so blissful it was almost unreal.
When he arrived at his doorstep, He Haowen parked his bicycle under a big tree.
There was a secluded corner, and he pulled Shen Yulan to hide there, then kissed her red lips.

"Honey, can I call you that now?"
Shen Yulan lowered her head shyly, which could be considered as acquiescence.
The two are now legally married!
"Then shouldn't you change how you address me too?" He Haowen blinked and gestured.
"Oh dear... in broad daylight..."
Shen Yulan found it hard to say it.
He Hao saw that Shen Yulan was really shy, so he didn't force her.
There's plenty of time ahead; he can make his wife call him "husband" for the rest of his life!
As soon as the two stepped into the courtyard, Anzi cheered, "Sister, brother-in-law!"
He excitedly lit two strings of firecrackers.

The family members all came out happily to welcome the newlyweds.
Even Qiao Suxin and Xu Honglin rushed over despite their busy schedules.
Shen Jingyan stood in the crowd, holding Rui Rui, and looked at He Haowen and Shen Yulan's happy smiles, and couldn't help but sigh for a long time.
Shen Yulan has finally been given a new lease on life.
