Chapter 131 Training the Son-in-Law
Han Yu was originally going to go hunting in the mountains the next day, but he was worried that Su Wenyue stayed at home for another day. Although Su Wenyue ate a lot, it was considered normal. In addition, Su Wenyue explained that she was tired yesterday, and It had been too long since I had eaten something delicious, so I was hungry, so I felt relieved and started busying with things at home.
After the family was separated, Su Wenyue was thinking about how to organize the house so that she could have a relatively free space. She didn't want to be under the eyes of her husband's family every day. She originally wanted to build a wall in front of the house, but after thinking about it, she still felt like this Not so good, not to mention the parents-in-law will have objections, people in the village will also gossip when they see it, and if the wall is built properly, is this to prevent thieves?
Su Wenyue thought about it, and then thought: How about just building a few houses? Anyway, their current house is dilapidated and not enough to live in. Xiao Xi has always lived in the utility room. Although she is very grateful for the tidying up, such a small place is a bit damp and cold. Su Wenyue always feels that she can't help Xiao Xi. .
It doesn’t cost much to build a few houses. There are not so many details in the countryside. Even if you build a better house, it will only cost dozens of taels of silver. It will definitely be more spacious and bright than the village chief’s house. Let’s talk about Su Wenyue. It was also for the sake of the child in her belly. Although it was more than eight months before the child was born, everything had to be planned. It didn't matter that Su Wenyue felt wronged, but she wanted to give her child a good growth condition. Thinking of the suffering her son suffered in her previous life, Su Wenyue's heart throbbed with pain.
Su Wenyue was a man of action, and she would do it if she thought of it. However, Han Yu had to agree to it, so she immediately told Han Yu her idea. She originally thought that Han Yu would agree, but was rejected by Han Yu. Su Wenyue was a little depressed and also She couldn't understand why Han Yu would disagree. Han Yu had been very obedient to her during this period.
"Ms. sir, why don't you agree? Building a house is a good thing, but the place we live in is too crowded. Xiaoxi is so loyal and willing to follow me, and she is not afraid of hardships. I don't want her to live in a small room all the time. It's too unfair. Yes, it’s not like our family doesn’t have the conditions. I know you don’t want me to use the dowry, but we are husband and wife and we are a family. There is no need to worry about it so much. My husband, you are a capable and ambitious person. I believe that one day you will be able to do it. It doesn’t take much money to achieve a great career, not to mention building a few houses.”
Even if Han Yu disagreed, Su Wenyue did not give up the idea of building a house at all. After having this plan, she felt more and more sad that she was living a life of doing nothing under the eyes of her husband's family. She tried her best to persuade Han Yu and wanted to If Han Yu didn't agree, she could finally get Han Yu to agree by moving the child out of her belly later.
Han Yu's reluctance to build a house was naturally not what Su Wenyue had guessed. He was a determined person, so how could he be affected by the gossip of the gossips in the village.
If he wanted to live in the village permanently, it would be good to build a house, but he had other plans for his wife's arrangements. If it went as expected, his wife would not be able to live in the village for long, so there was no need to go to all the trouble of building a house. A house, not to mention building a house is not that easy. You have to order the materials to build the house before you can start. At that time, he is probably not at home anymore. The wife has to worry about everything and arrange everything. She has always been pampered and raised. Who knows? He couldn't bear to do this, and he couldn't bear to worry about his wife working so hard.
However, it was obvious that his daughter-in-law had a strong desire to build a house. Han Yu watched helplessly as his daughter-in-law kept talking about the benefits of building a house, etc., trying to convince himself that her daughter-in-law would not be so easy unless she told him a reason. I gave up, wondering if I should reveal my plans.
"Daughter-in-law, it's not what you think." Han Yu sighed, but still expressed his plan.
Su Wenyue had previously thought that Han Yu was a man of chauvinism and was unwilling to use her money to build a house. Who knew that this was why Han Yu actually planned to do so.
Because of her previous life's experience, Su Wenyue habitually assumed what happened in her previous life, but she didn't want everything to change due to the changes after her rebirth.
Take the relationship between Han Yu and the Su family for example. In her previous life, Su Wenyue had resentment towards her natal family and would not go back easily. She even mocked Han Yu for being a flattering person to her natal family and was not a man. Although Han Yu respected the Yue family, because of Su Wenyue's attitude, he was always a bit temperamental as a man, and later he gradually became alienated from the Yue family.
In this life, Su Wenyue understands her parents' painstaking efforts, and is even thinking about Han Yu's future. She wants Han Yu to have a good relationship with her natal family, so that she can take care of her natal family in the future, so Han Yu has a good relationship with the Su family. Han Yu admired his family's character even more. Coupled with Mr. Su's attitude, Han Yu regarded the Su family as relatives in his heart. Even though Su Hengxuan sometimes couldn't stand the man who stole his sister, and his attitude didn't seem to be that good, but But he also sincerely thought about Han Yu, his brother-in-law. Han Yu couldn't help but feel that he became closer to the Yue family.
Due to some connections, Han Yu did not let his parents and brothers know about the conscription. Moreover, from their perspective, they could not discuss such a matter, but he discussed it with his father-in-law and brother-in-law.
Master Su and Su Hengxuan, one who cared about their daughter and the other who cared about their sister, were not willing to let Han Yu be assigned to a place too far away. They thought of a way to use their connections to help Han Yu find a junior official from the eighth rank.
Although he was a minor official of the eighth rank, Han Yu's background and experience made this position the most suitable. Master Su thought about it several times before he took this position. Otherwise, he could have spent more money to get a higher position. Master Su really cared about his son-in-law. He had experienced a lot in his life and knew what was good for his son-in-law.
This position is neither at the bottom, and it doesn't matter if you have to endure too much hardship and you may not be able to climb up. It will not be envied by others just because of the prominent position, and even make Han Yu feel superior at the beginning, which is not conducive to the growth of his state of mind. Master Su always insisted that only those who endure hardships can become superior people, and he has always been strict with his two sons. In Master Su's view, Han Yu has the ability and ambition, but lacks experience. He needs to grow up from the bottom and go further after he has a solid foundation.
However, although Master Su wanted to train his son-in-law, it would be much better to have someone to help him in the officialdom than for Han Yu to fight alone in his previous life. At that time, Han Yu was just a private, a rookie, and was not allowed to leave the barracks easily, let alone go home. Although he was still in Xinye, it would take several months for him to go home. He did not have much more free time than he does now. Although he could not go back every day, as long as he was not too far from the barracks, it was not a problem to go back every one or two days, so he made such a plan.
