When Li Wanjun heard Erqie say that there was only one maid in the family, she was not very satisfied. Now the family conditions have improved a lot, but there is only one maid in the family.

Li Wanjun said reluctantly, "Erniu, there is only one maid in the family now. Isn't it enough? You had fewer people before, but it's different now. There are more people in the family, and we have a son now."

When Li Wanjun talked about her son, her heart was filled with sweetness. Erniu was also very proud because he was the first person in the family to give birth to a son.

"I need to talk to my mother about this matter. I need to discuss it with my mother."

Li Wanjun was unhappy, "Erniu, you still have to tell mother about such a small matter. I think these are small matters. We can make the decisions on our own. There is no need to tell mother."

Erniu said anxiously, "Wanjun, you still have to tell mother about this matter, because it will cost money, and I don't have much money on me. All the expenses at home require money, and they all have to go through mother's hands."

When Li Wanjun heard her mother say this, she became even more dissatisfied. "Erniu, we all have our own families now, why do we need mother to arrange some money? We can arrange it ourselves, don't ask me. Now that I'm here, let me take care of the household affairs. Go and talk to mother about this matter."

When Erniu heard what Li Wanjun said, he was too embarrassed to speak.

"Wanjun, I really don't want to say this, and mother is the one who makes the decisions on all matters big and small at home. My elder brother and younger brothers are used to it, and my elder sister-in-law is also used to it. When my elder sister-in-law is at home, she asks mother for money every month. My elder sister-in-law has no control over the money at home."

Erniu, I was too embarrassed to speak. I was afraid that my mother would scold me. I was also afraid that my elder brother and younger brothers would scold me. I was really embarrassed.

Erniu lowered his head after he finished speaking.

Li Wanjun was so angry when she saw Erniu's look. Why did she find such a cowardly husband? He was really not good at anything.

"I know about this matter. I will go and talk to my mother myself."

Li Wanjun said unhappily.

Li Wanjun angrily entered the house by herself, but she didn't know the direction, so she yelled at Erniu, "Why, can't you see that I can't find the way now? Why don't you lead the way quickly?"

"You are getting stupid and dumb every day. Tell me why I found a husband like you. You really don't have any outstanding qualities."

The more Li Wanjun thought about it, the angrier she got. She thought she had picked up a gold ingot, but it turned out to be a piece of junk.

Erniu felt embarrassed after being yelled at by Li Wanjun, and immediately took Li Wanjun away.

"Wanjun, come this way."

Li Wanjun went into the room and saw that Erniu's room was pretty good, so she calmed down a little.

Li Wanjun had been in the imperial capital for several days and finally had time to meet Yun Tao.

Li Wanjun walked up to Yuntao, holding the sweet soup she had made.

"Mom, you've worked hard. Come and have some of this sweet soup. This is my specialty. When I was at the Li family, everyone said that this sweet soup tasted good."

Yun Tao took the sweet soup with a smile, tasted it, and said contentedly, "It's really good, I made it to perfection. Anyway, it's better than what I made myself. Wanjun, you have to be careful."

Yun Tao smiled happily and teased her grandson. When Yun Tao saw the chubby child in front of her, she felt very happy.

"Wanjun, have you two decided on a name for the little one?"

Li Wanjun rolled her eyes and said, "Mom, Erniu and I haven't decided on a name yet. We really don't know what to call it. Why don't you come up with a name for us?"

Yun Tao thought for a moment and said, "You gave birth to the child, so it's not appropriate for me, as a grandmother, to name the child. Why don't you choose one yourself?"

Yuntao is not the kind of person with old-fashioned ideas. She believes that it is better for a mother to choose a name herself.

But Li Wanjun didn't think so. She thought Yuntao didn't want to name her child because she didn't like her child. Would her grandson's mother not like him? This was the first grandson of the Wang family.

"Mom, you've seen a lot of things, so you should come. Although I've only been to school for a few years and know a few words, it's better for you to come. You've seen a lot, so the name you come up with will definitely be grand."

Yun Tao knew that she couldn't refuse, and she was afraid that Wan Jun would think too much if she kept refusing, so she immediately said, "Okay, I'll give it to you. If you don't like it, you don't have to give it this name."

Yun Tao thought for a long time, and finally said, "How about calling him Yu Qian?"

"Yuqian, Yuqian, Yuqian,"

Li Wanjun was muttering to herself there.

"Mom, the name is indeed nice. It sounds good to me, but I don't know what it means."

People who have read books are different. They know that there is a meaning behind their names.

Yuntao was very satisfied with this. When he married Li Wanjun, she had gone to school, and he was quite satisfied with this.

"The word 'Yu' originally means feather, which is light. Taking it as a name implies that the boy will soar into the sky, and it has the meaning of being elegant, auspicious and beautiful. The word 'Qian' means modesty, which highlights the boy's temperament and implies that the boy has a good character. The name 'Yu Qian' means literary and elegant, implying that the boy is handsome and talented."

Yuntao told Li Wanjun what she had thought, and Li Wanjun immediately said yes. Who doesn't like to hear good words, especially when it comes to her own son?

Li Wanjun felt even happier and couldn't help but look up to her mother-in-law.

She asked her mother-in-law to give her the name just to please her and have her manage the household. She was not sincere at all. After all, Yun Tao was just a peasant woman before.

How great can the culture be? I was not very reassured before, but now it is all right. I feel very relieved.

Li Wanjun couldn't help but say proudly, "Mom, your name is really beyond my expectation. It sounds much better than I thought. I am very satisfied with the meaning and other aspects."

Li Wanjun made Yuntao feel very happy, and she also told Yuntao what she wanted. "Mom, we are in the imperial capital now. There are so many people in the family now. There is only one maid in the family now. Will it be not enough?"

"Besides, Yu Qian has been brought to the capital now. This is my first time giving birth to a child and taking care of a child. I'm afraid I don't have the experience and won't be able to take good care of Yu Qian. Can you tell me if we can find some maids or wet nurses? You're awesome, mother."

After Li Wanjun finished speaking, she looked at Yuntao's face carefully, fearing that Yuntao would be unhappy.

Yun Tao looked at Li Wanjun, "I have thought about this too. There are many people in the family now, and one maid is not enough. Let's find two maids. I think two is enough. If there are more, I will not feel comfortable."

Li Wanjun just thought that Yuntao was reluctant to spend the money, and she was still a little unhappy in her heart, but it was still much better than having only one maid at home.

Feeling a little more balanced in her heart, Li Wanjun didn't say anything else.

By the way, he said while the iron was hot, "Mom, I'm in the capital now, and you're very busy at home. See if you want me to take care of the household affairs in the capital. You'll be the eldest sister-in-law in the village, so it will be very convenient for you to do things. And I heard from Erniu that you're also very busy."

Yun Tao knew what Li Wanjun was thinking as soon as she heard it. She just wanted to manage the money? She thought it was easy to be a housekeeper. She didn't like being a housekeeper the most.

Tea, rice, sauce, vinegar and tea, none of them costs money, but all of them do cost money.

It is not easy to be the head of a household. You have to live frugally. The current situation at home seems to be rich, but in fact, we are still living in poverty.

What's more, when the lady wrote in the letter before, she said that she spent a full 50,000 taels of silver to save Erniu. Those were real money, real money that she earned herself.

How could I not feel bad when I took out 50,000 taels at once? It would be a lie to say that I didn't feel bad.

Yun Tao was not vague and said immediately. "Xing, no problem, if you want to manage it yourself, you can manage it. In fact, when you came, I was thinking that there is a mistress in the house, and the money matters really need someone to take care of it."

"Besides, I am old now, not as good as you young people. The expenses of the family used to be 100 taels of silver a month. Now that you have two maids, I will give you 2 taels of silver."

"After all, going anywhere in the imperial capital costs money. It's impossible for me to not give you any extra money."

Li Wanjun wanted to take advantage of the money earned by the housekeeper, but she knew that she couldn't get too much and that some things had to be done step by step by herself.

At the beginning, if she took too big a step, she would feel pain. Besides, she had to manage the household and the money all at once, especially with her mother-in-law around. It must have been difficult. Li Wanjun knew her own limitations and did not mention this matter again.

Li Wanjun left happily.

Yuntao watched Li Wanjun leave happily, and she felt happy in her heart. She had finally gotten rid of the trivial matters at home. Although the matters were not big, they were numerous and annoying.

When Li Wanjun saw her husband Erniu in the evening, she immediately said cheerfully, "Erniu, do you know? I said I wanted to be the housekeeper, and mother agreed without saying anything. I feel incredible, it's really going so smoothly."

Li Wanjun is still in a daze.

Erniu saw it and said, "Do you think this is a good job? Your housekeeper has known for a few months that everything in the capital costs money, and the price is not cheap."

After Erniu finished speaking, he didn't say anything else and fell asleep.
