Chapter 4 Separation

Li Xuewu didn't want Liu Yin to cry any more, so he stood up and wiped her tears.

"Mom, don't worry. What's more, there's a lot of allowance after the promotion"

The monthly allowance for seniors is 66 yuan, and there is nothing to spend except smoking.

It is more economical to go to Xian before. With subsidies, I have some savings now

The money was 543 yuan and twenty cents. The food coupons were exchanged for the national food coupons. There were dozens of kilograms of food coupons, which were stored in the finger space.

Liu Yin watched her daughter-in-law bring steamed buns and rice porridge to the table, and also brought a small pot of pickled vegetables and a plate of pickled vegetables stewed with tofu to the table, asking everyone to eat.

Seeing a large family of children sitting around the table of the Eight Immortals eating silently, Liu Yin was both pleased and sad.

"All the hardships have passed. Now your father can earn a lot of money by practicing medicine in the countryside."

Then he looked at his elder brother and said, "Your elder brother has not spent at home since he received subsidies four years ago. Now he and your sister-in-law are teachers, and their monthly salary is 62 yuan. Your father is now 79 yuan and 50 yuan a month. With the usual medicine and medical fees, it can make up about 140 yuan.".

Then he looked at the third younger brother and said, "The student who was admitted to the medical university this year began to receive subsidies, and did not have to spend at home, so the pressure was immediately reduced.".

Liu Yin handles housework, and Guan is able to settle accounts.

"Now only your sister needs money to go to school. Your grandmother and your grandmother are in good health and have no expenses. Now our family is a good day and can save money.".

Li Xuewu watched his mother eat and calculate the account. He knew that it was not to pressure himself, but to tell his family's financial situation to ease his mind.

But I'm afraid that the eldest brother and his wife are too careful to say these words. Because my sister-in-law married to live together, I don't know whether I am used to the life of a family. But most of them have some ideas. They can't ask my sister-in-law to accommodate themselves to the life of a large family. They are busy giving my sister-in-law a wink at my mother.

Li Shun is too lazy to look up at him.

Seeing her son's eyes, Liu Yin thought that her son had grown up. She had more eyes. She scolded: "What are your eyes flying about, you little boy?"

Hearing what Liu Yin said, everyone looked up at Li Xuewu, who was also embarrassed.

Liu Yin looked at her eldest son and daughter-in-law, and said to Li Xuewu, "I told you before your sister-in-law came in that the couple saved their own wages, and how to use them. Your father and your mother are tough. It's not time for you to use your pension. Don't learn from the opposite family. It's like a cashier's office.".

Hearing Liu Yin's words, sister-in-law Zhao Yafang looked up and said to her mother Liu Yin; "Mom, how many times have I said that I married into the Li family and earned money from our family. I asked Xuewen to give it to you and he brought it back to me. I hate that I pinched him several times. You are so good at managing our family. We also want to worry about the money account. We can ask you for it later.".

Liu Yin smiled and listened to her daughter-in-law's good words, but she was not really serious.

In fact, Liu Yin knew in her heart that the eldest couple wanted to live out, and the eldest daughter-in-law did not want to live in front of her.

"As soon as I entered our house, your grandmother gave me the account book and key, saying that she could help me for a while, but not for my whole life. She would be a housekeeper as early as possible, so you can keep your salary. If you want to live out alone, tell your mother that she will help you manage it".

Li Shun coughed discontentedly.

Li Xuewen is just eating. His eldest brother is a bit weak. He likes learning and doesn't care about housework. It seems that he should be his sister-in-law in the future.

Liu Yin glanced at Li Shun and said, "You are not old yet. Why are you keeping your son around?"

Li Shun slapped his chopsticks on the table, got up, dressed and left.

At this time, the atmosphere at the dinner table cooled down again

At this time, Li Xue poked her mother under the table.

"Mom, I will provide for you"

Liu Yin now knew that her daughter had a problem with what she had just said.

"Well, my daughter will support me"

Li Xue blushes and lowers her head to poke at the porridge in the bowl, embarrassed.

Liu Yin then said to Li Xuewu, "Once you have a chance to learn martial arts, I will also help you arrange a blind date. My son is a good guy, and he can match anything"

Liu Yin ignores Li Shun and talks about the topic in a relaxed way.

Li Xuewu hurriedly interrupted, "Mom, you can wait for me first. I'm only 19 now, and I'm going to have a blind date."

At this time, Li Xuewen suddenly said, "Do you still use blind date to learn martial arts?"

Li Xuecai and Li Xue both bowed their heads and laughed when they thought of Li Xuewu's past.

Li Xuewu was embarrassed. He didn't know what they were laughing at, but he seemed to know something about it.

Liu Yin nodded at Li Xuewu with a pursed mouth and said, "It's not too young to be 19 years old. It's time to get married if you don't go to school. The Spring Festival is coming soon. Mom will give you money to find a house, so you can find a partner. This time, your father won't beat you.".

Li Xuewen finished eating Wowotou, clapped his hands, stood up and went back to the house.

He obviously didn't want to take part in the family affairs, and his wife's eyes on the table made people unable to eat.

Originally, I wanted to take the opportunity of vacating the house while my second brother came back, and the couple moved out to live.

The daughter-in-law has mentioned it for several times, but he didn't dare to mention it to his father when he thought that his father would decide who would take care of the family in the morning.

After Li Xuewen finished eating, Zhao Yafang got up and went back to the house.

Within two minutes, both of them were dressed neatly and ready to go out.

Zhao Yafang came out with a red scarf, and said to Li Xuewu, "Your brother and I have classes today and have to take the morning bus to school. After eating, we left. Do you want anything to eat? I'll come back this afternoon with your brother and buy it for you.".

Li Xuewu quickly stood up.

"Sister in law, you should be careful on the road. Don't take care of me. I'm not a child anymore. Let's have a good talk after you leave work.".

Zhao Yafang was very pleased to see Li Xuewu standing and talking to himself. The brother-in-law who looked like he was difficult to get along with respected him very much, and it was not too difficult to get along in the future. He said, "Well, that grandma, grandpa, mother, and second brother, let's go first. Sit down and have a good meal.".

Then they went out to catch the bus.

Li Xuewu sits down and grabs two mouthfuls, eats the Wowotou in his hand, and gets up to help Liu Yin clean the table. Li Xuewu is the last one to finish eating.

Liu Yin hurriedly presses the bowl Li Xuewu has put away.

"Put it down quickly. I don't need your brothers and sisters to clean up when they are at home. It's up to you to have a rest.".

"Just have a meal. Where am I tired? Let me help you clean up."

Liu Yin pushed away her son and said, "You are not needed. What should you do?".

Li Xuewu had no choice but to pick up a bag of luggage and two bags of clothes and articles on the ground.

Today Li Xuecai has to go to school, and Li Xue also has to go to school, so after finishing eating, both of them are packing their own things to go to school.

Li Xuewu opened his luggage, pulled out a pair of spring and autumn leather shoes and a pair of winter leather shoes on the ground, and folded the bedding again on the kang.
