After the reunion dinner, Cheng Tianyuan and Xue Heng helped to clean the dining table.
Xue Ling accompanied the third uncle and Xue Huan to make tea while watching TV.
Cheng Tianyuan is used to doing housework, and he moves very quickly, skillfully and effectively.
On the other hand, Xue Heng's movements were clumsy and the dishes were jingling.
Cheng Tianyuan couldn't help asking: "You have been out to eat independently for a while. Why do you still look like you are not good at working? Could it be that Afang can take care of all the housework alone?"
As far as he knows, his sister has to go to work during the day and occasionally at night. How could she book a breakfast and dinner alone and all the cleaning work at home?
Xue Heng smiled bitterly: "I have work... I just clean and mop the floor, etc."
Cheng Tianyuan nodded: "I rarely cook at home, right?"
Xue Heng told the truth: "I come here occasionally for free, and I basically go to the back of the downstairs mall for dinner at other times. At the end of the year, the TV station is busy, so she often has to work over night, so I basically eat in the factory."
"Yes." Cheng Tianyuan was not surprised and asked, "I guess it's been a long time since my family was cleaned?"
Xue Heng smiled bitterly.
Cheng Tianyuan raised his eyebrows and asked, "How did you live like this? Do you think this is good?"
Xue Heng shrugged: "There is no way, I can only do this for the time being. Now I'm working hard for career, and when I have a child next, I can't do this anymore. I can't hold the child and wander around and find a restaurant to have dinner every day."
Cheng Tianyuan reminded: "You have been married for three years."
"Yes." Xue Heng explained: "It was exactly the third anniversary a few days ago."
Cheng Tianyuan shook his head and whispered: "Now that two people live together, you can be more rough. You can do whatever you want. When you have a child, you can't always do this."
Xue Heng didn't know what he thought of, but suddenly sighed softly.
"...We don't know why, but there are no children yet. As soon as I said that, she said that it was putting pressure on her. But I was in my thirties, and she was almost thirty. If I go late, I will be an elderly mother."
Cheng Tianyuan's eyes moved slightly and explained: "After the New Year, I will ask Ling Ling to talk about her."
"Okay." Xue Heng seemed to see the dawn, "Actually, my mother said she was the most suitable, but my mother would also scold her. Her career is getting better and better, and her self-esteem is getting stronger and stronger. She is no longer the same as before.
When the little girl and mother scolded her, she felt uncomfortable. When she was uncomfortable, she naturally couldn't listen to anything. Ling Ling had a good control over this. She also respected Ling Ling in her heart, so Ling Ling was the most suitable."
Cheng Tianyuan still knows his own girls quite well.
"Afang is not bad by nature, but she is lazy in her bones. If she doesn't take it more strictly, she will be lazy and always feels very good about herself. Maybe the environment must be more harsh on her, otherwise she will not be able to change it. You and
Your parents are so kind to her, so she became arrogant because of her favor."
"Is there any?" Xue Heng smiled softly.
Cheng Tianyuan glanced at him and brushed the pot loudly.
"Do you think I'm joking? Do you look like it? She is my real girl, I'm just such a sister. Logically, I should love her very much. But she is not the kind of person who can care about her face. So, I
I can only love her in my heart, and she is strict with her on the surface. She used to have a bad temper and short-sighted attitude, maybe because she was not solid in the foundation, so after relaxing for a little for a year or two, she would expose her bad character again. Laziness should not be scary.
What's scary is that you keep being lazy. You can still tolerate her being lazy now, and you can see the mess and dirty things all over the house. But what if you can't stand it one day, what will happen to you? Will you keep arguing?"
"I...I will help with the work." Xue Heng replied: "I found it was too dirty when I went home and I was cleaning it. The main reason is that I was also busy."
Cheng Tianyuan nodded: "So I didn't say about you. Afang has a very fixed working hours, either during the day or at night. She has to go to work during the day, and when she gets home at night, she says she's tired, so she just raises her feet and watches TV.
. I slept during the day during the evening shift, because I was too tired last night, so I didn’t do the work. In fact, who would have been there for a long time to do housework? Not all of them were squeezed out! My job is not
It is necessary to get up early and go to bed late. Before the child wakes up, he should clean and make breakfast. When the child wakes up, he has to take care of him, feed the meals and water, etc. When the child sleeps, he has to wash clothes and dry clothes.
And these do not include three meals and washing dishes.”
Xue Heng shrank his head and whispered: "Brother, I think Afang is always like this. But I can't say that she has too much, otherwise she will have to argue with me. I thought about it, if she gets pregnant,
I will pay to hire a nanny, clean the house, and cook three meals."
Cheng Tianyuan raised his eyebrows and asked, "Do you think you can find a good nanny like Sister Achun? Huh?"
Xue Heng was speechless for a moment.
Cheng Tianyuan sneered: "Don't wait for a while, the old problems have not been solved yet, but they have created a lot of new problems. Do you have money to hire a nanny? Will we have no money? Ling Ling also makes a lot of money? I have enough money to hire.
But there is one more person in the family, what is your personality? How to treat the elderly and children? If you treat the elderly a little worse, the elderly at least know in your heart. The children are still ignorant, especially two young ones. If they are abducted and taken away, they will be 10,000.
Once we were secretly abused? Who can guarantee these? After Sister Achun married Uncle Zheng, we thought about finding an extra nanny to help, but after inquiring, we gave up."
Xue Heng sighed helplessly: "Brother, what should I do?"
Cheng Tianyuan asked back: "Your life, do you ask me?"
Xue Heng: “…”
Cheng Tianyuan said: "Don't think too much, just live your life first."
Xue Heng sighed secretly and nodded.
"I'll try to chat with Afang."
Cheng Tianyuan whispered in a low voice: "She is a person who cannot be spoiled, don't indulge her too much. Don't worry, I understand your actual situation, and my parents also understand it. Even if she comes back crying and crying, we will naturally stand upright."
After hearing this, Xue Heng laughed: "I feel much more relieved if I have this big brother."
It is right for him to spoil his wife, but if he insists on doing this too much, not only will his father-in-law and mother-in-law be angry, but his newly retired mother will also be dissatisfied.
If rectification is required, I am afraid of causing more dissatisfaction. But if I have support from my father-in-law and my brother-in-law, it will be different.
Cheng Tianyuan quickly washed the dishes, wiped the table and the stove, and swept the floor and mopped the floor.
After some hard work, it was more than half an hour later.
Xue Heng couldn't help but mutter: "It takes time to prepare for cooking. It doesn't count the time for eating, and it still takes half an hour to wash and wipe it off."
Cheng Tianyuan explained: "Breakfast and lunch are simpler, so it doesn't take that long. Occasionally, you need to eat it quickly, so it's simple. Tonight is New Year's Eve, and there are many dishes prepared, so it takes so long. You only have two of you, how much can you eat
?No need to do much, no need to take so much time.”
Xue Heng nodded.
The third uncle outside shouted: "Are you okay? Come and watch the show for tea!"
"Hey!" Xue Heng quickly walked out.
When Cheng Tianyuan saw that the water on the stove boiled again, he took it down.
"Uncle San, do you need to take a shower tonight? I have heating at home and I have boiled hot water. Why not take a shower here first and go to the opposite side with Ah Huan later."
Uncle San nodded hurriedly: "I have to! The cold waves these days are too heavy. It snowed two days ago, and it was very cold. There was no heating in the small courtyard, so I was so cold that I dared not take a shower."
"Then you prepare your clothes, I will help you bring the water in first." Cheng Tianyuan said.
