"Then aunt, I will go back first."
"Can I give you a ride?"
"No need, aunt."
At this time, a young man in his twenties came out from the inner room. When he saw Shumei and the others, he greeted the lady, took the cup in his hand, and walked towards the kitchen.
As they walked, the lady asked the old woman, "Didn't Wencai go to Guangdong to find a job? Why did he come back?"
The old woman frowned deeply and sighed, "This useless guy has been back for a month now. He eats and sleeps all day at home, and when he runs out of money, he asks us for money. He is completely different from his brother, your cousin-in-law. I even doubt he is my biological son. I beat him and scolded him, but it's no use."
"Aunt, don't worry too much. Wencai is still young. Once he gets married and has the pressure, he will be sensible."
The old woman sighed and shook her head as she sent Shumei and her wife out of the courtyard.
At the gate of the courtyard, Shumei said goodbye to the lady and walked towards Qianqian's hair salon, wanting to tell Qianqian the good news.
After leaving Qianqian's shop, she returned to the village. When she got home, she found that her difficult aunt had gone home, and she was secretly happy for a long time.
At dinner, Shumei told Wu Ju and Zhang Binglin the good news of finding a job. The two elders thought it was a good thing and didn't object. However, Wu Ju questioned Shumei about the farm work and the busy farming season.
Shumei had not really considered this aspect, but no matter what, the work in the fields could not be neglected, otherwise how would she pay the tax?
Shumei thought for a long time. "It's just a simple sowing job. I'll try to find time to come back. Of course, I'll have to trouble my mother and father to help out. As for the busy farming season, I'll see if I can talk to the mechanic about asking for a few days off."
Shumei went out to earn money. If she didn't go out to earn money, how would she get the 60 yuan living expenses every month? Of course, Wu Ju had no objection.
After dinner, Shumei packed her clothes and simple daily necessities and went to bed early.
Lying in bed, she tossed and turned, unable to fall asleep. Why had she forgotten to ask if she had any days off? Didn't school always have Saturdays and Sundays? This way, she could still take care of the farm work. Even if the pay was a little lower, it was still worth it!
Shumei made up her mind to ask her employer.
Watching Shumei packing her things, Wu Ju felt bad. Although she didn't have her daughter to advise her now, she was always selfish. How could she let Shumei and the children leave this house so easily?
If she never came back, wouldn't the Zhang family be in debt for marrying her? Wouldn't that be a loss for both the wife and the army? Besides, she didn't even know where she worked. And what if she was just looking for an excuse to take the child away... Wu Ju became more and more afraid.
Forget it, I'll just have to take the blame and keep the child with me. Even a tiger won't eat its own cubs! With the child here, I don't believe she can escape.
Early the next morning, Wu Ju told Shumei about her idea of taking care of the child, saying that it was inconvenient to do things with a child, and besides, people would definitely not be happy for her to do things with a child. Anyway, there was no work in the fields now, so she would help take care of the child.
Shumei and Zhang Binglin were stunned by Wu Ju's words. They never dreamed that Wu Ju would take the initiative to help take care of the child.
At first, Shumei was reluctant. After all, she wanted the child to stay with her. Dabao's life or death was uncertain, and she didn't want anything to happen to Xiaobao. But since Wu Ju had spoken, her rebuttal was useless.
No matter how eloquent she was, once Wu Ju had made up her mind, she would not change it.
In the end, she had no choice but to leave the child at home, repeatedly telling Wu Ju to take good care of Xiao Shuangning, to which Wu Ju readily agreed. Just trust her once more! After all, this was the only bloodline of her Zhang family, and Shumei believed she wouldn't neglect the child too much.
After she had arranged everything, she went to the city alone.
In the storage room, Boyi took Xiao Youchen to Wen Dazui again.
Seeing Boyi coming in, Wen Dazui munched on the steamed bun in his hand while talking to Boyi: "Boyi, come here! Have you had breakfast? If not, let's eat together."
Wen Dazui stood up from the stool, holding a steamed bun and holding the hand of little Youchen. Little Youchen, who was just one year old, could already walk on his own without being held.
"have eaten."
Wen Dazui squatted down, handed the steamed bun in his hand to Xiao Youchen, pointed at his man and said, "Youchen, go to your uncle's place, and your aunt will say a few words to your dad. Be good! Honey, go quickly."
Little Youchen staggered towards Wen Dazui's man. She then stood up and, while seeing Boyi off, asked, "Boyi! What are you thinking? You can't possibly let me be your free babysitter for the rest of my life, right? In two years, your nephew will get married and have a baby, and I'll have to take care of him! I won't be able to take care of your little Youchen anymore."
"I also know that you have worked hard, sister. I will definitely repay your kindness in the future."
"Don't keep talking nonsense to me. Let me ask you, are you interested in Shumei? If not, I'll help you find someone else. You'll have to find another one sooner or later anyway."
Wen Dazui, a straightforward person, couldn't stand all the roundabout ways, so he asked Boyi directly whether he had any intentions towards Shumei.
Boyi took a deep breath, "Ji Zong's seventh day hasn't passed yet, what plans do you want me to have?"
"That's interesting! After the hundredth issue, I'll go to the Zhang family to propose marriage for you."
