Chapter 482: The Problem of Eating Together

Compared with these children, Wang Xiaomo looked much wealthier. The pockets on both sides of his clothes were stuffed full, making him the most eye-catching kid in the courtyard.

No matter what, He Yuzhu must not treat his nephew badly, and giving him more candies is basic procedure.

Seeing Wang Gensheng coming with two children, the third uncle greeted them.

"Gensheng, are you taking your child out for a walk?"

Wang Gensheng smiled and nodded as he moved forward. The Third Uncle's game of chess was in a precarious situation. It seemed that he was completely at a disadvantage. Without a sudden inspiration, he would surely lose.

Seeing Yan Jiedi from the third uncle's family coming over, Wang Xiaomo was not a stingy person. He was eating candy in his mouth and took out two pieces from his pocket and handed them to Yan Jiedi.

Seeing this, Yan Bugui smiled and nodded, boasting: "Xiao Mo is really an open-minded person."

Yan Jiedi, who was used to it, didn't bother to be polite with Wang Xiaomo and just reached out to take it.

He first pulled one out and put it in his mouth, and then carefully put the other one into his pocket.

Although Qin Huairu had just thrown wedding candies in and Yan Jiedi had snatched a few pieces, she couldn't bear to eat any of them. Even when she took them out, she was afraid that they would be lost if she put them in her pocket, so she didn't take them out.

It was hard to imagine that I ran into Wang Xiaomo when I came out and got an unexpected gain.

As expected, Yan Bugui lost the game of chess. In fact, he was not in the mood to play. When he saw Wang Gensheng coming, he was looking for an opportunity to chat with him.

Giving up the chess position to others, the third uncle stood up and stood side by side with Wang Gensheng. Yan Bugui thought of his children at home and couldn't help asking.

"Gensheng, you said that I haven't had a formal job in the past two years, and I can't teach the children in the winter. There is one less person earning money at home. Life is so difficult."

At this point, Wang Gensheng was also helpless and said: "Uncle, it's no use for you to tell me. I am now a free official and am on secondment with the archaeological team. To be honest, I really can't help you now."

"However, I heard that the general direction of society has changed. I also heard that the college entrance examination will be resumed. I estimate that next year or the year after next at the latest, you may be able to go back to work."

At this point, Yan Bugui's eyes lit up, knowing that it was a happy event, but he still asked another question: "Do you think this thing can be successful? Is it just another gust of wind?"

"It will definitely work this time. As the saying goes, there is no smoke without fire. Since the resumption of the college entrance examination has been widely reported, it should be reliable."

After hearing this, Yan Bugui smiled and nodded. He was also looking forward to this day.

As Yan Bugui laughed, bitter tears rolled down his eyes. He took off his glasses and wiped them with his sleeve. Life had not been easy for his third uncle's family in the past few years.

Especially at home, they suddenly lost their salary earner. If it weren't for Wang Gensheng, he would have been asked to help take care of the children for 18 yuan a month in the past two years.

Maybe the whole family starved to death.

When the storm was at its worst in the past decade, even the third uncle’s food was smashed. This storm will soon pass, the college entrance examination will be resumed, and work in the school will also resume.

It is only natural for the third uncle to go back to work and teach.

The next day, when the two families were sitting in Wang Gensheng's courtyard to have dinner, it seemed quite awkward, but Wang Gensheng didn't care too much.

However, when Wang Xiaomo and He Xiaoxue faced Qin Huairu, they were both troubled about how to address her.

"Look how difficult it is for these two kids."

Logically, one should be called aunt and the other should be called stepmother.

But the two children and Qin Huairu all lived in the same courtyard, and they were neighbors across the street and saw each other every day. This way of addressing each other had already become a fixed pattern. Now that they suddenly changed their words, both of them felt uncomfortable.

As for the two daughters of Qin Huairu, it was even worse. Even Xiaodang and Huaihua had never thought of changing their words.

I have never heard the two girls call him dad, let alone call He Daqing grandpa. He Daqing is closer to his own He Xiaoxue and does not have too many expectations for the two girls.

After Qin Huairu and He Yuzhu got married, for the Jia family, it was just another courtyard for them to eat in, and they would just wipe their mouths and leave after eating.

Even Wang Gensheng suspected that Qin Huairu married He Yuzhu just because she wanted the benefit of being able to eat with Wang Gensheng's family.

While cleaning up the dishes, He Yushui winked at Wang Gensheng and discussed this issue.

Wang Gensheng also spread his hands helplessly: "Let's eat together. Our family is not short of that little money. What can I say? You can't ask me to go to He Yuzhu and say:

His family suddenly has three more people coming to our house for dinner, so he should charge more for living expenses, right? "

He Yushui obviously meant this, and immediately said, "Why can't I ask for living expenses? After the family finished their meal, they didn't even wash the dishes, and they just disappeared after putting them down. What will happen if this goes on for a long time?

Otherwise, they are used to eating and drinking for free at our house, and if they ask for money after a while, it will seem even more alienated. "

What He Yushui said is not entirely unreasonable. Practice makes perfect.

After thinking about it, Wang Gensheng decided to find an opportunity to talk to He Yuzhu and discuss this issue.

However, the person who wants to get the living expenses will definitely be He Yuzhu. It goes without saying that Qin Huairu will definitely not use her salary as food money. If Qin Huairu gets less from He Yuzhu, she will feel that she is at a disadvantage.

This is all due to one's personality. It is easy to change the country but difficult to change one's nature.

Wang Gensheng didn't notice that when he was discussing this issue with He Yushui and was in great difficulty, He Xiaoxue, who was playing with Wang Xiaomo, accidentally heard the question and told He Yuzhu when she got home that night.

He Yuzhu was in a dilemma for a moment, knowing that it would be unacceptable if he did not pay the living expenses.

But going to Wang Gensheng's house at once would require paying for the food expenses for four or five people, which is not a small amount.

The most important thing is that we need to take out this money. Can Qin Huairu agree to it?

For Wang Gensheng and He Yushui, these few dollars are not a big deal. The two families are used to being together, and if one of them is missing during a meal, it will feel wrong.

However, if we really bring Qin Huairu and her family here to eat and drink for free, and they are all just lazy people, it will be easy for quarrels to occur over time.

Sure enough, when He Yuzhu put this problem in front of Qin Huairu, her face instantly became long when she heard that He Yuzhu would have to go to Wang Gensheng's house and pay nearly 20 yuan for food expenses every month.

He said, "Your monthly salary is about 100 yuan, and you have to give half of it to your daughter Xiaoxue, so there are only 20 or yuan left, and you have to pay another yuan for living expenses.

Then why did I marry into your family? Was it to work like a slave for Wang Gensheng's family? Or do you think I am just greedy for the twenty or thirty yuan you make a month?

When He Yuzhu heard this, his forehead was instantly filled with black lines.

He had forgotten about this question before getting married, and now that it is before him, he doesn't know how to choose.

Qin Huairu pouted and continued, "We usually go to work and eat in the canteen of the steel mill. We only have one meal at home this day. You can't afford to pay so much for food, right?"

"Sister Qin, you can't say that. Although we two don't eat much at home, we have my dad and Xiaoxue, as well as your two daughters, so we eat a lot every day."

"Okay, you heartless He Yuzhu, you've only been married for two days and you're already complaining that my two daughters eat too much?

Why didn't I notice it before? Are you so petty? If I had known you were like this, I wouldn't have come to you. "

He Yuzhu didn't know how to respond to this.
