Chapter 43 Yuanyuan

◎The daydream actually came true!◎

Wei Xuan probably knew that she had posed a difficult problem to Wei's mother. She shrank her neck with a guilty look on her face and ate her meal quietly.

Wei's mother didn't notice her strangeness and was thinking about which daughter-in-law to invite.

After a while, she looked up and asked Wei Xuan: "Call your sister-in-law over, where should she live?" Not to mention that her daughter had no place to live. Even if there was a place to live, they were running a braised meat business, so it would not be easy to let others move in.

"I've asked Jiang Che to go out and look for houses for rent nearby. It won't cost much to rent a small one for my sister-in-law to live in. She can eat here, which is convenient."

Wei's mother didn't take Wei Xuan's words to heart. The meal was free, and the food at her daughter's home was good. Should she ask her to pay for the meal when she came here to eat or not?

If I pay, the money I earn may not be enough for food. If I don’t pay, my daughter will suffer a lot.

Therefore, Wei's mother decided that no matter which daughter-in-law came, she would let them bring pots from home and cook for themselves every day. They were invited to come for making money, not for enjoying life. It was real to work hard and earn money.

When Jiang Che came back in the evening, Wei's mother asked him, "I heard from Ni'er that you are looking for a house recently?"

...

...

Jiang Che was so surprised by this question that he hadn't reacted yet. He looked up at Wei Xuan and then responded, "I am looking for her, but I just asked someone to ask her today. I guess it will take another two days for us to get any news."

Mother Wei nodded: "I'm just telling you that it's best if the house you rent has a kitchen. It doesn't matter if the place is a little bit smaller or shabby. Otherwise, when you go to look at houses, can you take me with you?"

Jiang Che didn't care. After all, he wasn't going to live there, and the best thing was to satisfy his mother-in-law, so he nodded and agreed immediately.

After talking about what happened, Mother Wei went to the kitchen to cook.

When Wei Xuan saw her mother leave, she asked Jiang Che, "Did you ask about the house I asked you to find?"

It turned out that Wei Xuan not only asked Jiang Che to help her family find a house, but also asked him to ask if there was any family that wanted to sell a house. The main reason was that she didn't know exactly when houses of this era would be allowed to be bought and sold, so she could only let Jiang Che inquire first.

Seeing his daughter fall asleep after being coaxed by him, Jiang Che gently put her on the kang and said, "I have asked around, and there are quite a few people who rent houses, but no one wants to sell them. Why do you want to buy a house, wife? Isn't it nice to live here?"

"How can you live in someone else's house as safely as your own?"

"That's right, then I'll ask someone else for help."

"Don't worry, just keep it in mind and figure it out slowly." Wei Xuan asked with a smile: "Have you decided on a name for the child?"

Speaking of this, Jiang Che frowned and looked unhappy: "My dad said that he has already chosen a name for the child. It's Jiang Yuanyan, which means the same as Yuan Qing."

Wei Xuan repeated the name Yuan Yan, Yuan Yan twice, but it didn't sound like a girl's name, so she asked Jiang Che, "Which Yan?"

"Ri Anyan, does it sound bad? If you think it doesn't sound good, we can choose one ourselves."

Wei Xuan didn’t think the name was bad, she just thought it might be more suitable for her son.

But after all, it was her father-in-law who gave the name, and it also had a good meaning, so she didn't say anything, and comforted Jiang Che: "It's okay to say more, why don't we give the child a nickname and call him by it everyday."

"That's fine." Jiang Che was barely comforted by her and began to remember his daughter's nickname.

"How about calling me baby? Darling? Beibei?"

"Stop," Wei Xuan almost reached out to cover his mouth: "Or I should do it." What is this! Isn't it disgusting?

The despised Jiang Che:...

After thinking for a while, Wei Xuan said, "The child was born on the winter solstice, so why not name him Yuanyuan, which symbolizes reunion and has a good meaning."

Jiang Che himself had no idea, so he just agreed with the name his wife gave him.

He said to his daughter, who was wrapped in a blanket, "Yuanyuan, Yuanyuan, from now on you will be called Yuanyuan. Are you happy?"

As they were talking, maybe Yuanyuan felt her parents' happiness, but she slowly opened her eyes.

Jiang Che was stunned. It was not until Yuanyuan closed her eyes again that he excitedly said to Wei Xuan, "Wife, the child just opened her eyes and looked at me. She must like this name very much."

"Really?" Wei Xuan was also very surprised. This was the first time the child opened his eyes since birth, but it was a pity that she didn't see it.

Perhaps because she was annoyed by her parents being too noisy, Xiao Yuanyuan burst into tears.

The noise was so loud that even Wei's mother, who was squatting in the yard washing pots, heard it and ran in to ask, "What's wrong? Did the child urinate again?"

Jiang Che and Wei Xuan looked at each other with a guilty look.

Seeing that they were silent, Wei's mother became anxious: "Why aren't you talking? The child is crying, hurry up and comfort him, don't hurt your throat by crying."

Wei Xuan finally reacted and quickly lifted up her clothes to feed the child.

After eating the rations, Yuanyuan finally stopped crying, but her little mouth was still twitching, which made Wei Xuan feel so distressed.

The child stopped crying, but Wei's mother still did not let Wei Xuan and Jiang Che, the parents, go.

"Look, you two, you both have children, but why don't you comfort your children when they are crying because of hunger? Don't do this next time, especially you, Wei Xuan. You are the one who takes care of the children. You have to be the first to notice whether they are hungry or wet."

"I know."

It’s not easy to take care of a child. This is what Wei Xuan and Jiang Che felt after a few days.

Because it was winter, the child didn't need to hold a third-day bath celebration, so Jiang Che went to the factory to tell his brother that the child would be one month old on the day of the Little New Year, and the family should go to his house for a meal to celebrate the child's one-month old birthday.

After a few days of thinking, Wei's mother has made up her mind and decided to let the third daughter-in-law come here to take over her daughter's class.

The eldest son’s wife is obedient, but she is not flexible enough in dealing with people. It would be bad if she offends her daughter’s colleagues.

The second son's wife is flexible, but she is a little too strong and smart to be controlled.

Section 35

After much thought, I think the third son's wife is better. She is a little smart, and she is humble and thick-skinned. I am not worried that she will not get along well with my daughter's colleagues, nor am I worried that she will have other ulterior motives.

Anyway, no matter what she thought, Wei's mother could suppress it.

Besides, didn’t she ask Xiaolong to tell her last time that she wanted to come here to help? Now she has the chance.

After listening to her mother's analysis, Wei Xuan asked her, "Mom, aren't you afraid that your elder and second sisters-in-law will be unhappy?"

"Your mother has a plan. Think about it, why do they want to come to the city? Isn't it just to help you cover for your shift and get your monthly salary?"

Wei Xuan nodded.

"That's it. No matter who comes, I'll keep the wages. Your eldest and second sisters-in-law will definitely not want to come. They have to work for free, and they are not stupid. Who would be willing to work for nothing? It's winter now, and there's nothing to do at home. It's so comfortable to stay at home for the winter."

"Then how do you know that Third Sister-in-law is willing to come?"

Mother Wei snorted, "Your third sister-in-law is good in every other way, except that she was raised by her mother's family and is too short-sighted and greedy. If she knew that she could eat something good in the city, she would definitely be happy to do so."

Wei Xuan found it funny that her mother really understood the tempers of her three daughters-in-law at home.

Wei's mother made a decision and asked Jiang Che to call home the next day.

After receiving a phone call from her mother-in-law, Mrs. Wei immediately went back to the house and packed her luggage.

Brother Wei San felt aggrieved when he saw his wife happily packing her luggage and not showing any reluctance to leave him and his son behind.

I didn’t expect that the daydream my wife had last year would actually come true. Is this the legendary saying that fools have good fortune?

As soon as he called the Wei family, Jiang Che took some time to take his mother-in-law to see a house. Otherwise, when Wei Sansao arrived, he would have no place to accommodate her.

"Don't be in a hurry. Just tell me about these places briefly first."

Jiang Che had carefully inquired about the places that he wanted to take Wei's mother to see. When Wei's mother asked, he listed the advantages and disadvantages of each place without any hesitation.

After hearing this, Wei's mother said after a while: "Then let's go to the one closest to you first." In Wei's mother's opinion, a good house is good as long as it is livable. The most important thing is that it is close to her daughter's home and she can help take care of it.

Jiang Che had no objection at all, as he was originally the one who preferred this place.

Wei Xuan originally thought that it would take at least an hour or two for the two of them to come back after going out to look at houses, but in less than twenty minutes, the two of them came back smiling.

"You're back so soon? Did you find a satisfactory rental?"

Mother Wei smiled and said, "It's just across the yard from you. It's not a big place, only about ten square meters, but fortunately there is a public kitchen there. When your third sister-in-law comes, you don't have to buy a stove or anything. You can cook directly."

Wei's mother originally wanted to let her daughter-in-law cook on her own, but she asked her daughter, and she learned that the stoves and kerosene stoves used in the kitchen were not cheap, and it would cost a lot to buy one. Maybe her daughter-in-law's salary from working here for a few months would not be enough to pay for it, so she was always conflicted in her heart.

Unexpectedly, the house she saw today gave her a pleasant surprise. The problem that had been worrying her for several days was suddenly solved.

She was so happy that she decided to rent the house on the spot.

Wei Xuan was speechless: "Mom, I told you to let Sister-in-law come to our house for dinner. It's close, so why should I let her come home from get off work and cook by herself?"

"Even if it's not for cooking, it would be more convenient to boil water in more kitchens." Wei's mother knew that she couldn't convince her daughter, so she changed the excuse. Anyway, when her daughter-in-law came, she could just give her instructions in private.

Sure enough, when Wei Xuan heard her say this, she didn't say anything more.

In fact, Wei Xuan was not really a sucker. She just felt that since Wei's mother was helping her take care of the children, it was only right for her to return the favor by taking care of her sister-in-law. Besides, it was just a matter of adding a pair of chopsticks to the family, so there was no need to calculate it so clearly.

The next day after the house was rented, Wei Sansao arrived with her luggage.

Since Wei Sansao was going to Beijing, in order to prevent her from getting lost, Wei's mother called Wei Xiaolong back from school in advance and asked him to pick her up at the station.

By the time he took the person home, it was just time for lunch.

Mrs. Wei San was feeling a little dizzy, but when she saw the food on the table, she instantly woke up.

There is a pot to eat in the middle of the day, it’s so delicious!

She knew that she would be able to have a good meal when she came to her aunt's place. It was only the first day, and she was able to eat meat as she wished.

Mother Wei was very hurt to see her drooling with greed, so she turned her head away in disgust.

The author has something to say:

Wei Sansao is actually very cute~

There will be a new character soon, the original setting is a bit extreme
