“Over my dead body!” The mother-in-law said, “I’ve been to the capital this time to treat my eyes. Although the place is huge and there are skyscrapers everywhere, I don’t like it. It’s not as comfortable as staying in Peach Blossom Town. That kind of big city is suffocating. You’ll know when you get there. After this incident, I’ve had an epiphany. What’s the point of having children? It’s completely useless. You already have two daughters. Don’t have any more sons.”

Chu Wei smiled and didn’t say anything else. With her mother-in-law’s character, this wasn’t something that could be persuaded with just a few words. Moreover, she had been in Peach Blossom Town for her entire life, so it was difficult for her to live in the city.

The reason why she had this thought was because she was worried about her mother-in-law. Now that her eyes had recovered, she could not only take care of herself, but also earn money by selling things with both hands. However, she had broken off all ties with the eldest family. She no longer helped them or gave them money to spend. With her sister-in-law’s character, how could she possibly let this go?

In her dream, in the next ten years, the country would rapidly develop under brilliant policies. General attitudes would also undergo a huge change. Under the impact of various advanced Western cultures, society would become more and more open. In that environment, many people would choose to start businesses and the country would also give entrepreneurs a lot of convenience.

She wanted to bring her mother-in-law and mother to the capital and let them welcome a new life in the midst of reform and change. They would leave this old and backward environment and breathe some fresh air. She would also change her way of living.

…

The entire night, Chen Liang and Chen Hao ate until their stomachs were round. At dawn, they finally ran home to sleep. Chen Ji supported himself against the fence with one hand and kicked his long legs into the backyard.

Chu Wei got up to go to the toilet and met him in the backyard. They looked at each other and did not say anything, but they could understand each other’s thoughts.

At 5: 30 am, Chen Ji did not sleep for the entire night. Chu Wei felt sorry for him and quickly went to the kitchen to cook for him.

In order not to wake up the children and his mother, Chen Ji did not enter the house. He sat under the peach tree and smoked. She turned the radio to the softest volume. She had been worried about her mother-in-law during this period of time so she had not been listening to music.

After lighting the firewood on the stove, the water in the pot boiled for a short while. She took out some noodles and threw them into the pot to cook. After the noodles were done, she poured the water into the pot and started boiling oil again. He took out two eggs from the chicken coop and poured a small bowl of bean paste into the pot. She scattered the eggs and poured them into the pot. Finally, she grabbed some onions and threw them in.

The fragrance of the soy sauce assailed her nostrils and whetted her appetite. She scooped out a spoonful of soy sauce and sprinkled it on the noodles. She felt that it was not enough. Chu Wei poured another spoonful of the chili sauce made by her mother-in-law. Finally, she added some sesame oil and shrimps. They looked, smelled, and tasted good. She drooled.

“The gentle willows, the faint peach blossom water, the small boat is drifting over…” Chu Wei hummed as she walked towards Chen Ji with the big bowl of noodles.

Under the peach tree, Chen Ji sat upright. His beautiful eyes stared at her without blinking. Although his face was expressionless, he couldn’t hide the happiness and satisfaction in his eyes.

She moved a wooden stool to the side and sat down. Chu Wei was mulling over it. Her mother-in-law’s illness had been cured and the matter of the jade pendant had been resolved. It was time to talk to the man about going to the capital.

According to the rules of the military unit, at Chen Ji’s level, he should not have access to a car. Apart from visiting family, the other reason why he returned this time was that he had another important mission. This mission required him to use a car.

Li Jinhuan was hospitalized for a total of eleven days. He even sent someone to take care of her while he went on a mission. He took out 700 dollars from his pocket and handed them to Chu Wei. “From now on, Mom will be with us. This money is for Mom’s medical expenses.”

After receiving the money, Chu Wei asked, “When are we going to the capital?”

Chen Ji ate his noodles. “I thought about it for a night. Let my mom stay with your mom for the time being. The two of them have a good relationship and can take care of each other. This way, we can be at ease. We can stay for another day and return to the capital tomorrow morning. I still have important missions to do. When the conditions are stable in the future, we can bring them to the capital together.”

Chu Wei nodded. Since her pillar of support had made his decision, she had nothing else to say. She took out 300 dollars from her pocket and put it together with the 700 dollars from the first branch. “Let’s add another 300 dollars and leave this 1,000 dollars for Mom. It’s enough for her to take her medicine during this period of time.”

Chu Wei could understand as she watched her husband eat his noodles. Chen Ji’s military rank was only at the Primary Company level and he did not have that many benefits. It was already very good that he was allowed to have his wife and children follow him. The capital was not Peach Blossom Town and the expenses there were several times higher. His allowance as a company commander was just enough to support his wife and daughters. How were they going to live if he took the two old women with them?

Even if Li Jinhuan knew how to do business, the capital had strict regulations. If they wanted to do business, they could only open a store. However, where would they get the money to buy a storefront? Therefore, they could only postpone it..
