Quick Wear: Passerby A's Daily Life of Eating Watermelons

While eating, Jiang Yue ignored the teasing remarks of his companions, and everyone said that Jiang Yue had become a sophisticated person.

After lunch, she went back to the office and rested for a while. There was nothing to do today. After studying for an afternoon, it was time to get off work. She rode her beloved bicycle to go home. This bicycle was many years old. It was second-hand when she bought it, but it has not broken yet.

The main reason is that Jiang's father maintains the car properly, while Jiang Yue, the user, doesn't cherish it so much. Jiang's father often helps with the maintenance of the car.

When I got home, Jiang's father and sister-in-law were already there. Jiang's father was about to retire. His job now has switched to training apprentices and doing some supervisory work. Unless he is extremely busy, his life is very free.

While Mother Jiang was cooking, Father Jiang pulled Jiang Yue to play chess. They had just been bullied by the old man in the yard, so they asked Jiang Yue to help them review the game.

"By the way, Yue'er, do you have any extra fishing rods? Make one for Dad."

"Yes, I'll bring it back to you when I have time. Do you want me to teach you?"

"No need for that. I'll study it myself first."

"Okay, then you won't have to ask me again."

After helping him review the game, Jiang Ma also prepared the meal. After putting away the chessboard, they started eating. After the meal, the family discussed buying a house because Aunt Wang from the Zhao family next door was planning to buy a house for each of her children and was even considering marrying out as well.

"Lao Jiang, do you think we should buy one too? We have a lot of children."

"Mom, I don't think it's necessary. Just wait until they get a job and their company allocates them housing."

"Xiaoyue, what do you think?"

"I think it's worth buying. Auntie Wang has good vision. Bai Ze also said that the houses there were very cheap before, but after the development, 90% of the people can't afford to buy houses now."

"Really?"

"Well, can this be false?"

"We are different from them, right? Our houses are allocated by the state!"

"It doesn't necessarily mean that the division will continue in the future. The total population is getting bigger and bigger, and sooner or later private transactions will be opened up. Let's not talk about anything else. Could you have imagined that private individuals could open restaurants a few years ago? Aren't they all state-owned restaurants?"

"Even if we want to buy it, others may not sell it, right? Who would sell a house?"

"Just take your time to look for it. Mom, I support you. Buy a house for each of the little ones first, so that when they grow up, they will have a place to live."

"Besides, if we really divide the house, we can just sell the extra one. Brother, have you forgotten? Before you and I divided the house, our house was almost full. Didn't we also think about buying a house at that time?"

"That's true, then mom, I'll leave this to you. We are at work and don't have time to do it. Just come to me when you need to pay."

The sister-in-law nodded and then asked about the price of Jiang Ma's house. Jiang Ma told her the price she had asked Aunt Wang about, and finally calculated the savings of the couple, and it turned out that it was not enough to buy two houses.

"Mom, let's buy one set first, for the older one, and save up for the younger one later."

Father Jiang took a puff of his cigarette and said, "Old lady, let's buy three sets. If the eldest brother doesn't have enough, we can pay for it first. Since both of us are working, we don't have to worry about not being able to pay it back."

"Dad, no..."

Father Jiang waved his hand to interrupt his sister-in-law: "The sooner you buy it, the better. If it really turns out to be what my son-in-law said, we may not be able to afford it even if we spend all our money. As for the money, you can pay it slowly."

"Thanks dad."

"As a family, we don't talk about this. Xiaoyue, do you want to buy it?"

"Let mom take a look. If you find a good yard, let me know. I have a big yard that's enough for us. I'll buy one for the children, just in case they don't want to live with us."

"Sigh, you're thinking too far ahead. Get pregnant first."

"It's better to be prepared."

After resting for a while, Jiang Yue was pulled out of the door by Jiang's father. She thought something happened, but it turned out that he was calling her to help with revenge. Jiang Yue had no choice but to help play two games of chess. She won two games to let him vent his anger, and then prepared to go home. Although it was still a bit stuffy at night, it was probably going to rain.

"Dad, please pay attention to the weather. It looks like it's going to rain."

"Got it. I'll go back in the next round."

After returning to the house, I wrote a few letters to Bai Ze. He is still on the road now, and I don’t know when I can receive them, but I still have to write them.

After writing the letter, I gave it to Mother Jiang and asked her to mail it tomorrow. I went to the yard and saw that a strong wind had already started blowing. Then, before Father Jiang came back, raindrops as big as beans began to fall.

As the raindrops fell, the yard began to become noisy. There were still clothes to be collected in the yard. After waiting for a while, Jiang Yue's father still hadn't come back. Just when Jiang Yue was thinking about going to pick him up, he came back.

The rain was getting heavier. Fortunately, it rained later and those who should go home had already gone home, so they were not stuck on the road due to the heavy rain. There was nothing to do on a rainy day, so Jiang Yue read a book for a while and fell asleep listening to the sound of rain.

It was still raining the next morning, but it was much lighter than the night before. After breakfast, Dad Jiang and eldest brother took umbrellas and went to work. Jiang Yue and sister-in-law each had one raincoat, which did not affect their bicycle riding.

When I arrived at the office, the rain had almost stopped and the drizzle turned into light rain. I took off my raincoat after returning to the office. Fortunately, the clothes underneath did not get wet. After making a cup of tea, I started my day's work.

Another month passed with relatively dull days. During this time, he wrote several letters to Bai Ze, and he also replied to many of Jiang Yue's letters. One day in July, Jiang Yue suddenly vomited while having dinner at home.

With the presence of two experienced people, Jiang Ma and Sister-in-law, Jiang Yue was sent directly to the hospital, and then naturally became pregnant. Jiang Ma and Sister-in-law happily took Jiang Yue home and bought her a lot of delicious food.

As soon as Jiang Yue was settled, Jiang's mother went out to show off. There was a lot of gossip at that time, and Jiang Yue was talked about a lot, but it didn't happen in front of her, so she was too lazy to pay attention.

At the same time, Jiang Yue must do a good job of disguising herself in the next few months. Since she plans to live an ordinary life, she should not reveal any flaws. Although Jiang Yue is not afraid and has remedial measures, it is better to avoid trouble if possible. It would be better to have smooth sailing.

In the days that followed, she became a porcelain doll. Bai Ze got the news and said that he would finish the things over there as soon as possible and then come back to accompany Jiang Yue. During this period, Jiang's mother was still quite dissatisfied with him and couldn't find him when she needed him.

Dad Jiang said a few words to Mom Jiang. Mom Jiang muttered a little and didn't say much. The people in the country should have always protected Jiang Yue. They sent a lot of food and drinks in the name of Bai Ze. If Jiang Yue hadn't been able to contact Bai Ze, she would have thought it was sent by him.

Of course Jiang Yue accepted the country's kindness. Who could refuse to eat better? This was her only hobby, but she couldn't cook by herself. Her family wouldn't let her go to the kitchen, and the children were warned to be extra careful.
