Running with the ball in the lean years, the evil mother-in-law and the whole family regretted it

Chapter 180 They are both a couple who don’t like life in Beijing.
Bai Taotao: "This is quite the truth. Then you can discuss it with the superiors then. Anyway, neither of us covets that position. We both prefer the free life in the countryside. Some circles stay in It’s easy to become depressed if you stay in it for a long time.”

Chen Youyi nodded in agreement: "That's right. Fortunately, my status has improved a lot now. In Shangjing, everyone who goes out is an official. Those who are lower than me have to salute to me. If I am lower than others, I have to salute to others." To salute, sometimes when I meet several officials of different ranks on the road, it takes a long time to salute each other.”

"If we encounter something urgent, if we salute, we will definitely be delayed. If we don't, we will definitely be charged with disrespect. To be honest, I don't like going back to Beijing. As you said, If you stay in Beijing for a long time, you may easily get depressed."

Bai Taotao couldn't help but smile as she listened to Chen Youyi complaining about life in the capital circle: "This was a normal phenomenon in ancient times. Isn't it the same in this world as well?"

Chen Youyi: "But you don't need to say hello to those you don't know in this world. Here, in Shangjing, everyone has a hat on their head. Unless you are walking outside in plain clothes, you don't need to care about your identity or salute."

Bai Taotao: "Then you hurry up and climb up again. If I have to go back to Beijing with you at any time, I, who can't distinguish between official ranks, can only rely on you to support the scene. Otherwise, if I don't salute, I’m really afraid that I can’t save my head.”

Just thinking about Bai Taotao made me feel a chill on the back of my neck.

Chen Youyi: "Actually, if it weren't for the difference in official rank, it would be very good to do business in Shangjing. There are rich people there. If the food you make is as delicious as yours, the business will definitely be good. It's no better than opening a few restaurants. The processing workshop is much stronger.”

Bai Taotao: "Forget it, even if you become a general, I don't want to hang my head over there to make that money. There are so many officials, so much right and wrong, and you might lose your head by accident. On the contrary, in this countryside I feel more comfortable and can do whatever I want.”

"Not to mention flattering those official wives from time to time. You and I were both born in the countryside. Even if we get into the position of general or general's wife, those who look down on you will still look down on you. So why should we squeeze in That circle?"

"Besides, I used to watch a lot of palace fighting dramas in the present world. The stories in the backyard are no worse than the stories in the court. I don't like to fight with them. I prefer to be free. We’ve gotten used to it. So, I’d rather earn less. Anyway, the money we make now is enough for us.”

"You can't make enough money. You can spend it anyway. Why do you have to do things that make you feel uncomfortable and don't like things just to make that little money? The purpose of making money is to make yourself and your family happy, but in the end, you end up going somewhere you don't like. "Squeeze, isn't this stupid?"

At these words, Chen Youyi nodded in agreement: "That's true, and it's not easy for those who are officials to make money. The good thing about the restaurant in Beijing is that it was an industry before the current emperor's name, so those people don't dare to If you are in arrears, other smaller restaurants and teahouses often sign bills and don’t pay for them for several months. It’s a headache to have a lot of bad debts.”

"Okay, then we have made a unanimous decision. After I finish all the border issues, I will apply to the emperor to temporarily stay on the second line. If there is a war at the border, I will come forward. If there is nothing, I will go over occasionally. If necessary, we will go to Beijing. Come over and take a look, and I'll take you for a walk. When we have nothing to do, we just live our own little life in the countryside." Chen Youyi said, and found Bai Taotao yawning frequently, so he pulled her towards the main courtyard. .

When Bai Taotao heard this, she had already expected it, and said: "Yeah, sometimes even if you don't look at the prosperous emperor's feet, some businesses may not necessarily be easier to do than other places. Even if the money seems easy to make, you can't get it back. All the money is in vain. Think about it, you are a great general, and you won’t go to various houses with a knife to collect the bills.”

"But it's okay to go there occasionally. Just like a certain port in the modern world, life there is stressful, but it's still okay to go shopping."

"Today, we are warming up the new house. You are tired at home alone. Let's go back to the house and rest first. We will talk about other things later."

Bai Taotao nodded, "Yes." Then she let Chen Youyi pull her back to the house.

She originally thought that Chen Youyi would toss her again after returning to the house, but to Bai Taotao's surprise, tonight this guy only tossed her once and then stopped.

"That's it for tonight. You were too tired during the day. Go to bed early. Good night." With a gentle good night kiss, Chen Youyi hugged Bai Taotao and fell asleep. Bai Taotao couldn't open her eyes for a long time. She slept soundly and securely that night in Chen Youyi's arms.

Early in the morning, after breakfast, Chen Youyi went to the rice fields to take a look at the condition of the rice field crabs he had brought back.

If the rice field crabs are raised well, they can achieve crab freedom in the future.

Thinking about the future, Chen Youyi felt more and more ambitious.

"How many days do you plan to stay when you come back this time?" asked Bai Taotao, who was wandering around the rice fields with him.

Chen Youyi: "I'll leave tonight. There are still things waiting to be dealt with at the border. I came back temporarily to have a look. I feel relieved that everything is fine at home."

Bai Taotao: "I'll prepare something to eat for you later."

Chen Youyi: "Just prepare some food for the road. You brought a lot to the trustee last time. We'll talk about it after we finish eating."

Bai Taotao nodded: "Then you can take care of it yourself. If you don't have any more, if you want to eat, ask someone to send a letter back. I will arrange for someone to deliver it to you. By the way, there is one more thing. The eldest sister-in-law and the third sister-in-law are pregnant. You Go back and tell your brother and the others, congratulations on finally getting their wish."

"What about you?" Chen Youyi looked at Bai Taotao and asked expectantly.

How could Bai Taotao not understand what he meant, "I just gave birth to Xiao Wan, how could I have a second child so soon, and I also want to wait until Xiao Wan grows up. It depends on fate, don't worry."

Naturally, Bai Taotao has no objection to having a second child.

Although she has no preference for sons over daughters, and has no idea that she must have a son, Xiaowan can still have a companion after giving birth to two.

Everyone has their own ideas about having children, and she is no exception.

After hearing what Bai Taotao said, Chen Youyi nodded in agreement: "Yes, Xiaowan is only over half a year old. Don't rush into having a second child. It will not be good for your health. Then let's wait and wait until Xiaowan is older. . It just so happens that I also use this time to work hard to deal with the border issues. In this way, I can be with you when you are pregnant with your second child."

Bai Taotao smiled warmly: "Okay, then come on."

Chen Youyi: "Well, I'll work hard, come on."
