The Clever Wife of the 1960s Chapter 45 (Part 2)

But isn't this a memory of peacetime? We know that things have been taking off since the opening up, and there won't be any setbacks, and we won't go back to the old days.

So I decided to do it.

But for now, doing business is indeed looked down upon, but this contempt will only last for two or three years.

Once the situation is confirmed, more and more people will get involved, and it will become a trend.

"The shop is also planning to sell eggs and other things. If anyone has eggs, you can save them for me. I'll ask Guobin to come back and pick them up every seven days." Chen Rou said.

"I heard from Zhou Zhen that you were going to sell buns, so why are you selling eggs?" The captain's wife Chen Aidi couldn't help but say.

"The shop is there, so selling eggs is just a side job." Chen Rou said.

This was what she had planned. She could make buns with leek and egg fillings. Even if they couldn't be sold, they could be consumed. So the eggs had to be collected like other supplies.

Everyone asked her a lot of questions before going back. There was nothing they could do because it was really new. After all, she was the first person in their village to move out.

It is unusual to go to the city to do business, but many people are not optimistic about it. They think Han Guobin spoils his wife too much. Isn't this nonsense?

Isn't it nice to live a good life like this? As soon as I heard on the radio that the country was opening up and the economy was going to develop, I immediately went to the capital to open a shop.

At the old house, Song Xiaoyu heard about this from Han Guolin when she got home from get off work. She was stunned: "My second brother and his wife and their whole family are moving to the city? When did this happen?"

"I told him about it when I came back today, and it's spread all over the village now," said Han Guolin.

"Do we really want to move?" Song Xiaoyu couldn't help but ask.

"I ran over to ask my second brother, he said it himself, how could it be false?" said Han Guolin.

"Then why do you suddenly say you want to go to the city?" Song Xiaoyu said.

"My second sister-in-law said she wanted to go to the city to do business selling buns." Korean Lin said.

"Selling buns? Why did my second sister-in-law think of selling buns?" Song Xiaoyu couldn't help but ask.

"How did you come up with that? It's all in vain!" Upon hearing this, Han's mother sneered, "The second son is a useless henpecked man. He just does whatever his wife says. If he wants to let his wife waste the money, he might as well use it to honor his parents!"

After listening to the news from the villagers, Han's mother's face never looked good. Isn't this just a waste of money?

After Han's mother finished speaking, she looked at Han's father and said, "Master, when the second son comes back, you have to go and talk to him. Can you let a woman like her turn the tables? A woman who doesn't work at home to take care of the children is out there doing business. Aren't you ashamed?"

"We've split up the family business, why bother with so many things?" Father Han smoked opium without even blinking an eye.

He still said the same thing, they have already separated, so it is their own business and there is no reason to interfere.

"So what if the family is divided? Doesn't that mean he is no longer our son? He wants to be a henpecked man and pamper his wife. You might as well go and ask him for the money and we'll keep it!" said Han's mother.

Han's father doesn't want to pay attention to her anymore. Why should she wait until now to get the money?

"Mom, forget it. We've divided up the family business. How could my second brother and his wife give you any money? Besides, there's nothing wrong with going to the city to do business. It means being in the spotlight. You're a woman of the new era now," said Song Xiaoyu.

Han's mother said, "Xiaoyu, the cultured person that women in the new era are talking about, how can she compare with you? She has only attended literacy classes for a few days, and she won't even know if she loses money when she goes out to do business like that!"

"Mom, you underestimate my second sister-in-law. I've seen her tutoring Hanghang with his homework. Her cultural level must be at least that of a third or fourth grader. She should be able to do the math." Song Xiaoyu felt very pleased but still said.

"Anyway, I just think it's a waste of time." Han's mother said indignantly.

My son has been raised in vain. He would rather let his wife spend the money than give it to me as a filial son.

Song Xiaoyu didn't say any of this to her mother-in-law who had bound feet. She parked her bike and went straight to find Chen Rou.

"My third brother's wife is here." Chen Rou greeted them.

Song Xiaoyu said, "Second sister-in-law, I heard about it when I just came back. Are you really going to move?"

Chen Rou nodded: "Third uncle just came and I told him." She didn't want to deal with it anymore, as most of the villagers came over to ask.

"I heard from Guolin. He said, second sister-in-law, are you going to sell buns?" Song Xiaoyu said.

"Yeah." Chen Rou nodded: "Isn't this open? The children are getting older and older, and there will be a lot of pressure in all aspects in the future. We can't rely on your second brother alone."

"I see that your development is getting better and better now, second brother and sister-in-law." Song Xiaoyu said with some envy.

After he got back, he said to Han Guolin in the middle of the night, "My second brother and his wife are both leaving now, don't you want to leave too?"

Han Guolin was already sleepy, but he still said patiently: "I want to do that, but if you go out and don't have a job, the whole family will have to rely on you, how can that be possible?"

That makes sense.

Song Xiaoyu didn't dare to play tricks because of what happened to her colleague last time, so she whispered, "Guolin, let's wait and see. If the second sister-in-law's bun shop can continue to operate, how about we open one too?"

Han Guolin yawned and said, "That won't work. You don't say that the buns I make are not delicious. You have a decent job. Will it be a relief for you if I go into business?"

This is indeed a matter of face, so Song Xiaoyu hesitated and said, "Now that everything is open, it's okay to do business, right?"

"It's only a short time now. Let's see how my second sister-in-law's business is doing." Han Guolin said.

In fact, Han Guolin and his mother had the same idea. They thought his second sister-in-law was really troublesome. The family’s house had just been built not long ago, and now they were moving to the city to borrow money. What was the point of doing this?

In the village, they could still shamelessly share the per capita ration, but now that the whole family has moved there, even though they still have a village household registration, they have not provided any labor force, so the village will no longer have a share of the per capita ration.

How much loss is this?

This is a loss now, go to the city to sell buns?

How can this be so funny? There is a state-owned restaurant in the city, and people are willing to go there to eat its buns. He once ate the big meat buns in the state-owned restaurant, and he still remembers it vividly!

What future does his second sister-in-law have by selling buns?

Even if they did make some money, could they earn as much as the food that was distributed to the villagers? Impossible.

Song Xiaoyu stopped talking and thought, forget it, I can talk about it later.

Han Guobin and Chen Rou were also talking about this matter at night.
