Chapter 130 The Sister-in-law Who Eloped 42
Yuanchun had been listening to the elders' advice obediently, but why did she go off topic while listening?
Yuanchun's face darkened. "Dad, Mom, even if Captain Yu is not married, he is from the capital and a high-ranking officer in the army. How could he be interested in me? You are not allowed to mention this matter again."
Yuanchun is worried that when Yu Minjin comes to pick her up tomorrow, her parents will bring up the matter again, and Captain Yu will be extremely embarrassed then.
Mother Qin curled her lips and said unconvincedly, "What's wrong with you? You are pretty, a junior high school student, and now you have a good job, so why are you not worthy of him? He looks to be in his thirties, much older than you. You are at a disadvantage if you marry him."
Yuanchun said with a smile, "Mom, I am a divorced woman. Who would marry a divorced woman like me?"
To reassure her parents, she said, "Dad, Mom, after I have established myself in Beijing, I will find a man who is right for me to marry. You two can rest assured that I will not end up alone."
……
The next day, just after Yuanchun's family finished their meal, Yu Minjin came in a jeep.
The Qin family prepared a lot of things for Yuanchun, including homemade dried sweet potatoes, fried peanuts, homemade sesame candies, and dried black fungus mushrooms.
He also gave Captain Yu a large bag of wood ear mushrooms.
Qin's mother also made a pair of cloth shoes with thousand-layer soles for Yuanchun.
"These shoes are sturdy. Wear them carefully. Don't wear them when it rains..." Mother Qin's tears flowed down her cheeks. "Yuanchun, you haven't worn the shoes I made for you in three years. From now on, I will make you two pairs of shoes every year and mail them to you. When you arrive, you must let me know that you are safe and send your address home. Don't let your parents worry about you."
"I understand, Mom. I will send you a telegram when I arrive in Beijing." Yuanchun held the shoes in her hands, feeling warm in her heart.
With such good parents, how could the love-brained original owner be willing to sever ties with them?
Yuanchun left in Captain Yu's jeep.
Qin's father and mother cried silently, standing at the gate and watching for a long time, until they could no longer see the jeep, and then they returned to the house. When they returned to the room, Qin's mother found a roll of money that Yuanchun had stuffed under the pillows of the two elders, and she was immediately angry and moved.
"This child, how can she be so stupid? She has money but doesn't know how to use it. She even has an extra roll. Dad, look how filial your daughter is. This is the money she left for us two old folks, 200 yuan. This child, she doesn't want to live like this. She gave us so much money, and I don't know if she has any left."
Mother Qin shed tears as she spoke.
Father Qin said, "Keep it for Yuanchun and give it to her when she needs it."
Yuanchun had the money from selling the house, and Liu Fusheng still had a lot of compensation left. His daughter should also have a lot of money, enough for her to go to Beijing.
He saved the two hundred yuan for his daughter temporarily in case of emergency.
Yuanchun, who had already gotten into Yu Minjin's car, never thought that the money she secretly gave to Qin's father and mother was never spent by others and was saved for her.
Last night, Qin's mother secretly gave her 100 yuan, and she accepted it. This morning, she secretly put it under her parents' pillows and gave them 200 yuan more.
She was afraid that if the two elders got sick or something, she would not be able to take care of them as she was far away in Beijing.
It would always be better to leave more money in their hands.
She also wanted to keep more, but was afraid that her parents would worry that she had no money to spend, so they would send her more.
Two hundred yuan, not more, not less, just right.
