Chapter 567 Just Want to Make a Scene
Yu Wanqing nodded and said, "I will give Ping An acupuncture tomorrow. I will ask them. If they are really willing to help, it would be best if they move to the family compound now. This way, it will be convenient for me to give Ping An acupuncture."
Wen Shuanghua thought that Xiaowu's house only had three rooms. One was where the couple lived, one was Xiaowu's pharmacy, and the remaining one was where the family lived when they came to the family compound.
If we really let the Zhuang mother and son live in our house, the place would be a bit small.
"The house is too small and uncomfortable to live in." Wen Shuanghua looked at her husband and said, "I remember that Deputy Division Chief Wang retired a few days ago, and the bungalow he lived in is still empty. Can we exchange our house for the bungalow?"
When the Beijing Military Region was first established, Deputy Division Commander Wang had been in the military region. The bungalow he lived in had been expanded twice and now had a kitchen and a living room, as well as four rooms and a small courtyard.
According to Lao Huo's level, he can move in.
Huo Jianying thought about it and nodded: "I have to report to my superiors."
Wen Shuanghua looked at Yu Wanqing and said, "I know you don't like living in a building, and you know how to mix mosquito repellent sachets. Then you can move to the bungalow, and your father, grandfather and I will move in with you."
"Okay, I'm sorry that my parents have to go through so much trouble because of us."
Yu Wanqing knew that her parents-in-law did all this for their own good, so she did not refuse, but just kept this kindness in her heart.
After Yu Wanqing finished giving Ping An acupuncture and watched him fall asleep, she sat in the living room with Zhuang's mother and talked about Ping An's physical condition.
Mrs. Zhuang smiled and poured a cup of tea for Yu Wanqing, and brought out the snacks she had made that morning: "I know that Dr. Yu doesn't like snacks that are too sweet, so I only put a small amount of sugar in these snacks today."
Yu Wanqing thanked her, drank a cup of tea, ate a snack, and then asked about Zhuang's mother's future plans.
Zhuang's mother smiled and said, "Seeing Ping'an's health getting better and better, I am full of hope for the future. When he is fully recovered, we will return to our hometown."
"Cuiwen now has a job, and even her household registration has been moved to the factory in Beijing. I don't want to burden this child, and I hope she can settle down and start a career in Beijing in the future."
Yu Wanqing could see that Zhuang's mother loved her daughter very much and didn't want to drag her down.
It is already a helpless act to delay the marriage of her daughter until she is in her twenties. I guess Zhuang's mother must feel bad too.
She looked at Mrs. Zhuang and said, "Aunt Zhuang, as you know, my child will be born next year, and I need to find someone I can trust to help me take care of the child."
"Aunt Zhuang, I want to ask if you want to stay in Beijing and live in the family compound to help me take care of the children."
"You'll be paid 30 yuan a month, and we'll also provide for your and Ping An's food and lodging."
Yu Wanqing saw that Zhuang's mother was moved, and then added fuel to the fire: "This way, even if you don't live with Cuiwen, you can still see her often. After you recover, you can still go to school in Beijing."
When Zhuang's mother heard about the 30-yuan salary and free food and lodging, she was already tempted. Now that she heard that she could see her daughter often and her son could stay in Beijing to go to school, what else was there for her to hesitate about?
Without thinking twice, I agreed: "I am willing to help you take care of the children. I can also cook and clean."
As long as she can stay and the family doesn't have to be separated for a long time, she is willing to do anything.
Besides, she still has 30 yuan a month. If she works hard for a few years, she might be able to find an opportunity to settle down in the suburbs of Beijing.
Thinking about the future, Zhuang's mother wanted to keep Yu Wanqing as a slave, feed her three times a day, and take good care of her.
Yu Wanqing smiled and said, "Then let's make it like this."
She thought for a moment and said, "It's getting cold, and it's not convenient for me to run back and forth. Why don't you and Ping An move to the family compound as soon as possible? I can also help him with acupuncture more conveniently."
Zhuang's mother quickly agreed: "We will live in the family compound, and let Cuiwen apply for a dormitory in the factory, and she will be able to move in when the time comes."
"You guys can keep this place too. The house still needs someone to live in and clean it regularly, so it won't get rundown so quickly." Seeing what Mrs. Zhuang wanted to say, she smiled and comforted her, "This place is not far from the textile factory, so it's convenient for Cuiwen to live here."
"Besides, even if you help me take care of the children, you still have two days off every month. You can bring Ping An back here to reunite with Cui Wen."
"Doctor Yu, I really don't know how to thank you." Mrs. Zhuang excitedly held Yu Wanqing's hand and said, "Don't worry, I won't be lazy. I will definitely take good care of your children and cook for you. I won't let you have any worries."
In a conversation, both parties get the results they want.
When Yu Wanqing returned to her family compound, Wen Shuanghua also brought good news. The higher-ups had approved allocating the bungalow to Comrade Huo Jianying for her residence.
Deputy Commander Wang’s wife was a very clean person, and she kept the bungalow very clean. They didn’t even need to paint it, they could just move the furniture in and live there.
By mid-October, Yu Wanqing and his wife moved to the bungalow, and Huo Jianying and his wife and his father-in-law moved into Huo Lanci's house.
On the third day after moving into the bungalow, Huo Lanci went to pick up the three people from the Zhuang family and brought them to his family compound.
Zhuang Cuiwen simply came to see where her mother would live and work in the future.
Yu Wanqing allocated the room near the kitchen to Zhuang's mother and Ping'an. This way, Ping'an would not have to carry water so far when taking the medicinal bath.
After Zhuang's mother moved in, she took over the cleaning, cooking, and grocery shopping jobs. Not only that, she also often went to the upper floor to help clean.
Apart from work, Yu Wanqing and Huo Lanci now just wait for dinner when they get home.
When Shen Tian and Xu Mingzhen came to play at home, Shen Tian took a look at the exquisite snacks on the table and said with a smile: "Aunt Zhuang's cooking skills are really good. I am jealous. No wonder those people in the family compound say sour things."
Yu Wanqing smiled and asked, "Does that mean I should hire someone to come back and do the work?"
“Some people still want to report me?”
Xu Mingzhen looked at Shen Tian with a smile: "I said Sister Yu must know about this."
"Besides, it's normal for relatives to come and live in your home and help with the chores. There's nothing to report about it."
Shen Tian sneered: "Someone has nothing to do and wants to make some noise."
Yu Wanqing nodded and didn't take it to heart. The leaders of the military region all knew about this. In addition, when the Zhuang family arrived in Beijing, they went to find Wen Shuanghua first and then moved into Wen Shuanghua's house.
There are clues to this matter, so no matter who comes to ask, we are not afraid of them investigating.
"Don't worry about me. Tiantian's wedding is coming soon, and Mingzhen will also go to the northwest next month. You all need to prepare and don't let the rumors outside affect your mood."
She, the person involved, was not in a hurry, but the other two were.
