The Chinese New Year is coming soon.
There was a lot of snow this year. Many women in the compound heard that Su Ying had been going to the city frequently during this period. It turned out that she had opened a nursery in the county town. Everyone sighed.
How come Su Ying is so rich?
Captain Lu only receives an allowance of more than 200 yuan a month. How does he do it?
"Why is Su Ying so rich?"
"I heard from Sister Li that she is translating books for the county education bureau. I heard that she can make a lot of money from one book. It would be strange if she didn't make money."
"Oh my god, how much money can this book make? I could open a nursery with it."
"She translates English, so she must be making money. I went to the county town a few days ago, and all the flyers in the county town were advertisements for her nursery.
Although I can’t read, I heard someone next to me read it out. It’s 25 yuan per semester, including three meals a day and a lunch break. I think it’s quite expensive.”
...
...
"What? Twenty-five dollars a semester. Isn't that just robbing people?"
"That's right. It's better for you to take care of your own child yourself."
Several women were sitting together and discussing in a low voice. Su Ying knew that she had been the headline of the compound these days, but she didn't care.
Originally she planned to borrow money from Feng Xiaojun, but in the end Su Ying had no choice but to spend the money that Wang Lan gave to the two children.
He will make up the money for the child later. If he owes Feng Xiaojun money, he will feel guilty about it. The couple also have to make a living.
After working thousands of days and nights, all the money I earned was finally invested in this nursery.
If you calculate carefully, with 200 students enrolled a year and tuition of 50 yuan per person, the annual income is only 10,000 yuan. After deducting the teachers' salaries and students' meals, the final profit is estimated to be half.
Su Ying thought about it carefully and it seemed not worth it, but the meaning was different.
If she can really make it, she can open another one and she won’t have to come to school.
Besides, as the economy progresses, tuition fees will become higher and higher.
Also, you can invest in other things when the time comes.
She naturally had her own plans for doing this, and as long as Zhu Wenshu continued to ask her for translation work, she would continue to do it conscientiously.
There are several bungalows in the backyard of the house. Su Ying thought that she would take her three children to her own nursery when the time comes, and she would also bring Aunt Zhang with her.
She also invited Li Xiumei to work in the nursery, so that Xiaomeng could also go to her own nursery. Xiaoya was only over one year old, and Li Xiumei could take care of the child and earn money at the same time.
When Li Xiumei heard this, she was 100% willing to do it. It was simply a great thing to be able to take care of the child and get paid.
At night, he and Chen Qi were lying in bed. She mentioned this to Chen Qi, and Chen Qi said, "How can that be possible? You have to take care of three children by yourself and go to work. I am worried and I don't agree."
Li Xiumei frowned and kicked Chen Qi's calf with her foot from under the quilt.
"You know shit. You don't know how expensive firewood, rice, oil and salt are until you run the household. We have three children, and your monthly salary can barely keep them from going hungry.
Look at us two, you are not well educated, and I am not well educated either. If our child is also uneducated, won’t he be an ordinary person in the future?
Look at Su Ying. Although she doesn’t have much academic qualifications, she is well-educated and has made a lot of money by translating books in recent years.
If I had some knowledge, I could help you, but I can’t do anything for you now.”
Li Xiumei felt distressed and even blamed herself for not helping Chen Qi every day when she saw him coming back covered in dust.
Now that the children are growing up, her husband is probably reaching the end of his career in the army. Given his age, he probably won't have much chance of getting promoted in the future.
The older the child gets, the greater the future expenses will be, and the greater the pressure on the couple will be.
Li Xiumei didn’t understand it before, but she understands it now.
“I know you understand me, but I’m a man and having three children is stressful, and if you live in the compound I can help when I get home from get off work.
If you go to the county town, the ocean must also go to the county town.
Although this child is a little naughty, if you really go out, he can help take care of the two sisters, but you will be very tired, and it will be difficult to cook for the children. "
"Let me try first. I haven't even tried yet, so how do you know I can't do it?"
Li Xiumei kept insisting, and Chen Qi sighed, not knowing what to say.
He felt extremely depressed, as if someone was grabbing at his heart.
He had his back to her and she had her back to him, and both of them fell silent.
Chen Qi also knew that his wife wanted to help him share the burden, but she couldn't share so much, right?
That night, neither of them spoke, but Li Xiumei had already made up her mind that she would follow Su Ying into the city.
The two of them were like they were having a tantrum, and they stayed angry for a long time before they fell asleep.
It snowed heavily that night, and the whole compound became lively the next morning. A group of children were playing snowball fights in the yard. Su Ying was afraid of the cold, so she opened the curtains and saw a vast expanse of snow outside.
Su Ying dressed the three children, and Aunt Zhang soon arrived, carrying a basket of cabbages on her back.
"Yingzi, this is the cabbage my family grows. I brought some for you. Don't underestimate this cabbage. In winter, you can use it to stew vermicelli, stir-fry pork, and make dumplings."
Su Ying smiled and said, "Thank you, Auntie. I'll take it."
Aunt Zhang said, "I'll get it for you after you finish eating."
Su Ying smiled and said, "Aunt Zhang, make some vermicelli later, and we'll have hot pot for lunch."
"Okay."
Aunt Zhang had never made or eaten hotpot before. Since she started working for Su Ying, she has gained some weight and her complexion has improved a lot.
Aunt Zhang is very grateful for everything Su Ying has given her and she cherishes it very much. She will do any work that is available. Su Ying takes care of three children, but the house is always kept clean and tidy.
Before Aunt Zhang came, their house was clean and tidy. After Aunt Zhang came, the biggest change in the house was the addition of many new items.
Although she had not interacted much with other people in the compound, she could see that Su Ying was different from other people in the compound.
Su Ying put her newly bought cotton-padded jacket on the child, and she folded the clothes that were drying next to the stove neatly and stuffed them into the closet.
The door of the living room creaked and was pushed open from the outside. It was Li Xiumei.
When she came in, she had dark circles under her eyes and looked like she hadn't woken up yet.
She was still holding Xiaoya in her arms. As soon as she came in, she put Xiaoya aside and let her play with the two children.
Su Ying smiled and said, "What's wrong with you? You look so weak?"
"Oh, don't mention it. Last night I told my husband that I wanted to go to work with you, but he refused. We were both angry last night and no one talked to each other."
Su Ying thought it was because of something else, and after hearing it, she smiled and said, "Your husband must be worried about you."
