Chapter 622: Mutually praised
“When you come to work, what about Guo Dong and the others’ daily three meals? Holding your stomach and running back and forth? Before, your sister had it more convenient and lived close. This side one meal, that side another meal. And your side is far away.” Lin Qing He pointed out.
She didn’t recommend Zhou Si Ni to continue to come to work.
Mother Weng finished serving the customers. Two pieces of clothes were sold. After sending out the customers, she came over. She spoke: “I know Eldest’s wife want to go to work, but it’s actually the same to come to Mom’s side. It’s fine for you run back and forth like this with the pregnancy length is short. But the later stage? Everyone is worried about you.”
Zhou Si Ni pursed her lips and looked at her fourth aunt.
Lin Qing He honestly said: “I agree with your mom’s statement. You should nurture your pregnancy. Occasionally go over there and let your grandparents and the others see you.”
Zhou Si, Ni hesitated before saying: “Then I will be here. When I have time, I will go over.”
Mother Weng smiled and said, “Isn’t this fine? Mom would still give you salary you every month. You don’t have to worry about having no income every month. When you give birth, I will give you a big red envelope. Mom promised you.”
“Thank you Mom.” Zhou Si Ni smiled.
There was nothing to pick fault with her mother-in-law. She was very kind to her, even when she had married in for almost three years and didn’t get pregnant until the end of last year. She didn’t say a word of complaint. Only that it was their own life, they can decide by themselves.
As for the baby, she didn’t demand for a son. She said whether it was boy or girl, it was the same. Not patriarchal-minded at all.
Zhou Si Ni didn’t say anything but she was grateful.
She was also more grateful to her fourth aunt who contributed to her marriage in the first place. She was really not sure that after marrying someone else, she would have such a good life.
What Zhou Si Ni didn’t know was that Weng Guo Dong as well as Mother Weng were satisfied with her as their wife and daughter-in-law.
Weng Family was a veritable well-off family. The conditions were great.
Such a family wanted a daughter-in-law who takes care of the house.
Obviously Si Ni was housewife material. She was top-notch at cooking delicious food. What’s more, she was a motivated person who liked to study. Who didn’t like this kind of woman?
Of course, those who were shady would criticize.
Zhou Si Ni’s work matter was resolved. Lin Qing He chatted about other things with Mother Weng.
Mother Weng has naturally made a lot of money in the past two years. An average income of one thousand or so yuan per month. There was no need for the surrounding area’s clothing shops to compete business with her. They can forget about earning.
She had saved a lot of money.
“I heard Guo Dong said that he was going to be allocate benefit housing in a while. Is it true or not?” Mother Weng asked Zhou Si Ni at this time.
Zhou Si Ni nodded: “Going to be allocated.”
In fact, from the beginning of the marriage, Weng Guo Dong can be allocated benefit housing, which were also called apartment. This so-called apartment was an self-contained independent housing with relatively complete facilities.
They’ll be allocated something like this. Different from Lin Qing He’s one (below)
There was a kitchen, bathroom and bedroom.
And because of the benefit housing allocation policy, the housing prices at this moment had actually risen quite slowly. Because many people were keeping an eye open, waiting for the benefit house to be allocated.
Because of the existence of benefit housing, the value of the house was limited. The benefit housing allocation system was abolished at the end of the 1990s.
Lin Qing He spoke, “Guo Dong definitely picked a good one, right?”
Zhou Si Ni smiled: “He said he had seen it. It’s good. We will move over in a while.”
Right now she and Weng Guo Dong live in a rented accommodation. It wasn’t big though. The accommodation wasn’t bad. Still, it was quite average.
She looked forward to the benefit house that her family Guo Dong mentioned.
“Since Guo Dong said it’s good, then it’s really good.” Lin Qing He nodded.
Mother Weng grinned: “There’s also house allocation. If just relying on his salary, plus the retirement payment, he may not be able to buy a good one.”
“What’s the matter? He got an iron rice bowl. If it is not enough, he can directly get a loan and repay it slowly.” Lin Qing He said.
“I’ve heard of loans for business, but not loans to buy houses.” Mother Weng commented.
“Now you heard about it from me?” Lin Qing He smiled.
Skipping over this, the topic shifted to Zhou Kai and Weng Mei Jia. Mother Weng spoke: “The two stinky boys got married one after another. This year is finally Xiao Kai and Mei Jia’s turn. I have been waiting for a long time.”
“Once Mei Jia gets married in the future, they both will be over that side. Can’t see or care for them.” Lin Qing He responded.
“I heard from Mei Jia that there is a kindergarten at her side. As long as the baby can crawl, she can put it in. When she is pregnant and have a baby in the future, she will take a vacation for seven or eight months. Once the baby can crawl, she can go back to work. It’s find to leave the child in kindergarten,” Mother Weng mentioned.
“You even asked about this? Is it safe though?” Lin Qing He said.
“It’s in the community. Specially for minding the children in the community. Definitely safe. They will feed milk, biscuits, and meals. All of them will be taken care of. The tuition fee is a bit expensive. It costs 50 yuan a month.” Mother Weng explained.
Many people got an increased in their salaries now. Still 50 yuan per month was really expensive.
“As long as they take good care of the child, then fifty yuan it is. Our side will pay for it.” Lin Qing He stated.
That side’s wages were relatively high. For example, Zhou Kai himself, he can get a subsidy of several hundred yuan a month. With Weng Mei Jia’s income of more than two hundred yuan a month, it wasn’t actually a big problem to raise a child.
After all, it was only a few months.
When the baby is older, the tuition will be much cheaper. Because it will easier to manage. When it’s small, it’s really troublesome. They didn’t understand anything when peeing or the like.
“They aren’t married yet and Mom and Fourth Aunt is already discussing this.” Zhou Si Ni found it amusing.
“Aren’t they going to marry this year? As soon as the marriage settles, should consider about a child.” Mother Weng replied.
“It depends on them. If they want to give birth, they will. If they don’t want to give birth for now, they won’t. Not just Mei Jia, even we can’t help much. Let them decide.” Lin Qing He stated.
After hearing these words, Mother Weng’s heart felt more at ease. She jollily said: “Mei Jia, it’s her blessing to marry into Zhou’s house.”
“Don’t say that. My eldest can marry a wife like Mei Jia is his blessing.” Lin Qing He responded.
The two of them mutually praised. Zhou Si Ni was embarrassed from listening.
When the matter was over, Lin Qing He spoke, “I plan to go soak in the hot spring the day after tomorrow. When the times come, I will come and take you with me?”
“Now Eldest’s wife is happy to stay and help, I’m free anytime. You can come any time and I can leave at any time.” Mother Weng happily replied, “But this time, I’m treating.”
“I also want to bring Xiao Mei and Er Ni along. If you aren’t afraid, then I’ll let you pay the bill.” Lin Qing He said.
“Then let’s go together.” Mother Weng grinned.
