Chapter 69: Chapter 69: I Didn’t Hear What You Said_1

“Mother, I’m going to lie down for a while.” She had become somewhat heavier since conceiving, and if it weren’t for the spring water she drank every day, she wouldn’t be as energetic.

Although she was young and had no risks related to pregnancy of older age, she was understandably anxious about the unborn child, especially after having had a tough experience in her previous life.

Zhao Fang was somewhat disgruntled. How come her mother-in-law favored her sister-in-law so much? It’s just pregnancy. Many women in the village work in the fields even when they’re pregnant. But when it comes to the third sister-in-law, it’s as if she’s a Bodhisattva being worshipped.

She seemed to have forgotten that she too didn’t work once she got pregnant.n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om

Although Meng Yunhan didn’t work in the fields, she taught in the village elementary school and received a salary for it.

Even though Meng Yunhan had returned to her room, she didn’t rest after drinking the spring water. Instead, she went to the dimensions to work. The crop there was ripe, and she couldn’t simply watch it without harvesting.

When she was done, she tidied up a bit, left her room, and helped her mother-in-law make dinner. As there were leftovers from lunch, they only needed to prepare a few vegetarian dishes for dinner.

“Ahai, now that Yunhan is pregnant, will she be able to continue her teaching job?” Zhang Cuihua asked, as she had just thought about it.

“She should continue to teach this year. But she probably can’t go to school once the spring starts next year.” Yun Hai didn’t quite understand the underlying meaning of his wife Zhang Cuihua’s words.

Zhang Cuihua’s eyes lit up, “Ahai, if Yunhan does not teach anymore, is there anyone to replace her?”

Finally Yun Hai looked up at his wife Zhang Cuihua seriously, “Why do you ask?”

Zhang Cuihua hesitated, then muttered in a low voice, “My cousin from my mother’s side is in junior high. Could he…?”

“Zhang Cuihua, let’s pretend I didn’t hear that.”

Zhang Cuihua was taken aback; she didn’t expect her husband to get so angry. It even frightened their daughter in her arms, making the little girl tremble. She hurriedly comforted the child by patting her back.

Yun Hai didn’t say anything more while anxiously gazing at his daughter in his wife’s arms.

He was indeed very caring towards this daughter who had a sweet disposition.

“Don’t think about that anymore, your cousin is from another village, he can’t teach in our village,” Yun Hai spoke softly to Zhang Cuihua.

Zhang Cuihua was not pleased, “Why not? Wasn’t Yunhan’s position secured through some connections made by my brother-in-law?”

Seeing that his wife was so straightforward, Yunhai frankly replied, “Even though Ahao had exerted some influence, Yunhan is capable. Otherwise, how could she possibly get a teaching job in the village?”

Zhang Cuihua was somewhat discontent, “Aren’t they all just junior high school students?”

Yun Hai gave Zhang Cuihua a stern look which instantly silenced her.

“Apart from the fact that your cousin isn’t from our village, have a look at his attitude. Isn’t he just a junior high school student, yet he’s earning so much for the little amount of work he does while being at the job.”

Zhang Cuihua didn’t know what to say in return.

Her cousin was only earning a meagre amount because despite being a junior high school student, he was doing women’s work.

“If he becomes a teacher, his family’s condition will improve,” Zhang Cuihua continued to persuade.

Yun Hai snorted coldly, clearly unimpressed with his wife’s cousin, “Drop it. Don’t think about it anymore.”

“But…..”

“Zhang Cuihua, Don’t tell me you’ve already agreed to this?” Yun Hai reacted instantly, looking intently at his wife Zhang Cuihua.
