Chapter 548: Chapter 548 The More You Can Say, The More You Should Say

Zhao Tianlei thought of the Chen Family, "Going back for the New Year, I really want to see if that former brother-in-law of mine has had children yet?"

Yun Xiaoxiao glanced at him.

She had heard that some men can’t have children, so they let their wives seek a child from another man.

There was such an incident in their area, mentioned inadvertently by her mother.

There was a family with three brothers, and Laoer couldn’t have children. He went to his older brother to ask, not wanting to adopt a child, but to consider the idea of "seeking a seed."

The eldest brother worked in the city, and because of the family planning policy, he only had one daughter.

It was the eldest brother’s wife who blurted out about it, having discovered that her husband often lent money to the second uncle’s family, even favoring that nephew over their own daughter, to the point of secretly buying a house for the nephew.

Somehow she found out about the situation and caused a commotion, eventually learning that the nephew was not actually a nephew but a son.

However, Yun Xiaoxiao didn’t tell Zhao Tianlei about this; she knew it would become apparent when they went back for the New Year.

If he remarries and the new wife still doesn’t get pregnant, outsiders will easily recognize that it’s the man who can’t have kids, not the wife.

"What if they do have a child?"

Have a child?

The pressure would then be on the little sister.

"That would mean checking if he has been cuckolded," Yun Xiaoxiao said with a narrow gaze upon hearing this, "What do you know?"

Such dirty matters were at hand.

"When I was in middle school, a classmate’s dad couldn’t have kids, but to continue the family line, his mom sought seed from his dad’s cousin and bore him. The incident came out, and that’s how we knew about it."

No way?

Such things happen nowadays?

Indeed, much stems from real life.

"That’s nothing, there are families where brothers share a wife."

She had heard about that too.

Seeing that his wife was not scared off but instead had bright, encouraging eyes, he continued as if she urged him to share more.

"Do you like hearing about these things?"

"It’s just curiosity."

They were all somewhat shocked when they found out.

Not wanting to damage her image, Yun Xiaoxiao changed the subject, "Lately, Second Brother Yun hasn’t been writing to me either. I wonder how he’s doing at the state-owned restaurant in the Capital City?"

The business at the Capital City’s state-owned restaurants is mediocre.

You still need Food Tickets and meat tickets, even Fish Tickets.

But other restaurants don’t require these.

Everyone knows, a worker doesn’t get even a pound of meat tickets a month.

In the past, to eat meat, one had to sneak around to the black market.

Now, you don’t need to visit the black market to buy meat; you can proudly go to the market.

"If they can’t keep working at the state-owned restaurant, they could open their own. Second Brother Yun is quite skilled in the kitchen."

He had tasted Second Uncle Yun’s cooking before.

He definitely had talent.

Moreover, Second Uncle Yun’s father-in-law was a head chef at a state-owned restaurant.

If the two of them left the state-owned restaurant to open their own, business was surely going to be good.

At this moment, they were both mentioning Second Brother Yun with worried looks on their faces.

"Wife, this is the severance pay the manager gave me."

Although Second Brother Yun had anticipated their state-owned restaurant might not survive, being dismissed still left him feeling somewhat uncomfortable.

"Is business not good?"

Second Brother Yun nodded, "It’s getting worse."

It’s not that nobody comes to eat, but there aren’t many customers.

Firstly, several chefs in the kitchen had to be let go.

Being young, he was among the first to be laid off.
