Chapter 536: Chapter 536: The Person Who Caught My Eye at First Glance
If the amount was not substantial, in order to earn money to support the family, it would be necessary to look for other work.
Day by day.
"Mrs., you should also go to bed early. You’ve traveled a long way from our hometown. After riding in cars and trains, you must be tired."
Laosan’s Wife was more eloquent than both the eldest and Laoer’s wives.
Initially, she was the one scrutinized, but it was only with both of her sons nodding in approval that they agreed.
Mrs. Zhao, seeing her daughter-in-law enter the room, grabbed Laosan by the arm.
"If you dare to treat your wife poorly, I’ll break your legs. It was you who insisted on marrying her in the first place."
Mother, I know.
The one I fell for at first sight.
Naturally, I would cherish the person I married.
Especially since my wife is so outstanding.
I’m neither blind nor foolish—why would I look for thrills outside when I have such a good wife at home?
I’m not an idiot.
"Mother, I understand. You’re tired too, go get some sleep!"
If you don’t go to sleep, how can I do the laundry?
The two little ones, plus the two of us adults.
Intimate garments, my wife doesn’t like to wash them in the machine, so it’s me who washes them by hand.
"Alright."
Mrs. Zhao returned to her room.
"That’s not right, how come I haven’t seen Er Dan?"
No wonder, after Er Dan was brought here, they left him far behind.
"Er Dan is with his godfather."
Godfather?
How did a godfather suddenly come into the picture?
"What’s going on here?"
Zhao Tianlei explained, "I brought Er Dan with me to the Capital City. He’s still too young, and the factories don’t want a child so young. He can’t read many characters, so I found a master for him to learn a craft."
"Learning a craft these days involves a lot of hardship."
Mrs. Zhao knew this. For example, some carpentry masters, if they take on apprentices, the apprentices have to follow them for several years. The master might not even teach you anything, and there might not be any wages.
Why did Laosan let Er Dan go and learn a craft?
"It’s hard work, but I sent him to learn electrical repair. The repair master, whose son denounced him during the down-to-the-countryside movement, cut ties with his son after returning to the city. He didn’t return to his previous job; instead, he opened his own repair shop. He thought Er Dan was diligent, so he took Er Dan as his godson, and occasionally, Er Dan stays with him."
Mrs. Zhao finally understood the situation with Er Dan.
"It’s good to have a craft. When the time comes, he can support his master in his old age."
The people in the brigade who got along well with Zhao Tianlei, aside from a few like Cao Dali, became distant after getting married.
"Okay, I’m going back to my room."
The city is indeed cleaner than the countryside. When you go outside, there are cement roads, so there’s no fear of rain, unlike in the village where stepping outside after rain means dealing with mud.
Laosan’s house is quite spacious and nicely decorated; sometimes ignorance is bliss.
Seeing his mother return to her room,
Zhao Tianlei hurried to hand-wash the clothes. The laundry in the washing machine was already being washed.
Zhao Xinxin, seeing this scene, didn’t find it strange at all.
Previously, she thought it was nothing if men didn’t do household chores.
But after seeing Third Brother help his sister-in-law with housework at home, and even outdoing her in efficiency, Zhao Xinxin realized that what men can do, women can too, and what women are able to do, men can as well.
Cooking isn’t necessarily a woman’s job.
Laundry and cooking can also be done by men.
"Wife, you’re reading a book."
Yun Xiaoxiao put down her book. If I’m not reading, should I be playing with my phone?
Isn’t that keeping a low profile?
