Eating melons

Wei Wei nodded in agreement. "With your current salary, if he could only give you a hundred yuan a month, you wouldn't need to work. He could completely support you. You could spend the money as you pleased, and he could give you all the housework and the children. You wouldn't have anything to complain about."

"The same goes for you switching places with him. If you have the ability to earn money, it doesn't matter if you let your man help you with housework and take care of the children. It's all the same.

But if your future partner cannot give you enough money to live a worry-free life.

If you work the same shift as him, doing the same job, and you still have to do so much and wait on him when you get home, then what's the reason? Is it because he's so arrogant?"

Wei Wei agreed deeply, "Yes, some men are obviously worse than women, they don't earn as much as women, and yet they still want to be the boss at home. Those kinds of people are the most disgusting."

When Wu Mei heard this, her mind buzzed. She had never heard anyone say this before, and no one had ever said this to her.

From childhood to adulthood, everyone around her tacitly assumed that housework was done by women and children were raised by women.

And this is the fact. Whether it is her home, her grandparents' home, her grandparents' home, or her neighbors' home, the housework is done by women and the children are taken care of by women. At most, men come home to play with the children.

So what Wei Wei and Jiang Qi said had a great impact on her.

I didn’t quite understand it at first, but as I got along with them, my understanding of these words became more and more profound.

Thinking of the past, Wu Mei shook her head and quickly washed up. She couldn't let others wait for her. She went to someone else's house to eat for free, and now she had to wait for them.

Wu Mei, Yu Xi and Liu Jiaojiao did not go to dinner empty-handed either. After all, they were not that familiar with Xiao Xuemu and Li Zhibin.

Each of the three brought some snacks, canned food, biscuits and other things.

Wei Wei and Jiang Qi didn't think too much about it, because they had always eaten like this before, so they washed up and went to the door empty-handed.

Looking at the things in Liu Jiaojiao, Yu Xi and Wu Mei's hands, Wei Wei and Jiang Qi were stunned.

Wei Wei blurted out, "Is it this curly?"

They really didn't think about it that much, but isn't it a bit embarrassing if they don't take it now?

But this thought is only temporary and will disappear after a while.

There was no other way. During the six months they went to the countryside, the four of them had been eating together for at least four months.

Although they mostly ate at Jiang Qi's house, they also often went to Li Zhibin's house to eat, so there was really no need for them to talk so much or be so polite.

Wu Mei, Liu Jiaojiao and Yu Xi did not expect that Wei Wei and Jiang Qi did not bring anything, but considering that they were familiar with each other and ate together, it was normal for them not to bring anything.

But when Liu Jiaojiao heard Wei Wei say something about curls, she asked curiously, "What curls?"

Wei Wei quickly said, "Nothing, nothing, I was just talking nonsense!"

Hearing this, Yu Xi inexplicably remembered what Wei Wei and Jiang Qi had said about them being mentally ill and not taking their medicine.

Yu Xi discovered that Wei Wei and Jiang Qi always seemed to like scolding themselves.

The meal was quite sumptuous, and Wu Mei also tasted the cooking skills of Xiao Xuemu and Li Zhibin.

Wu Mei felt a little emotional. Wei Wei and Jiang Qi were not exaggerating. Xiao Xuemu and Li Zhibin's craftsmanship was indeed good, not worse than hers, and even better.

After dinner, Wu Mei and Liu Jiaojiao wanted to help clean up, but before they could start, they were stopped aside by Xiao Xuemu and Li Zhibin.

After dinner, Wei Wei and Jiang Qi leaned over and watched Liu Jiaojiao and Wu Mei looking uncomfortable, which they found a bit strange.

To be honest, Wei Wei and Jiang Qi were not surprised by Wu Mei's behavior, but they still found Liu Jiaojiao's behavior quite strange.

Liu Jiaojiao also felt the teasing gazes of Wei Wei and Jiang Qi, and rolled her eyes at them.

After cleaning up, Li Zhibin looked at them curiously, "How long did you guys chat last night? You've never slept this long before. I guess you four haven't seen any sunlight at all today!"

The aunties from the brigade came twice today. I think you four will be famous in the brigade from now on."

Wei Wei said nonchalantly, "Being famous is fine. Aren't we famous enough? Should we even say we have any reputation in the Red Star Brigade?"

Hearing your words, Xiao Xuemu immediately said, "You three may not have much reputation, but Wu Mei's reputation is still very good."

Hearing this, Liu Jiaojiao choked and felt like she had been shot for no reason.

Li Zhibin asked curiously, "Don't change the subject. You haven't told me how long you guys chatted last night?"

Jiang Qi said helplessly, "We didn't chat last night!"

Wei Wei also nodded, "Yeah, we didn't chat!"

Li Zhibin said in disbelief, "How could you sleep till this hour without chatting?"

Seeing that Wei Wei and Jiang Qi didn't get up until after three o'clock, Li Zhibin was really dumbfounded.

Wei Wei and Jiang Qi nodded, "We really didn't chat."

Li Zhibin didn't believe what the two said. He looked at Wu Mei and Liu Jiaojiao beside him and asked, "Didn't the four of you chat last night?"

It’s not that Li Zhibin was really curious and had to ask, but if it was really too late, it would be bad for the body.

And judging from the looks of Wei Wei and Jiang Qi, they only woke up at that time during the day, so it seemed like they stayed up late at night.

No wonder these two people can drink ginseng soup so much and often drink it to nourish their bodies. If they really stay up late every day, can they do without nourishment?

Liu Jiaojiao nodded, "We really didn't chat."

Wu Mei added, "But we played mahjong until four or five this morning."

Upon hearing this, Yu Xi, Li Zhibin and Xiao Xuemu were all shocked.

"You guys were playing mahjong all night last night? Why didn't you ask us for help?"

Xiao Xuemu thought about it and felt something was wrong. "That's not right! Last night, apart from the smell of braised pork, I didn't smell any other aroma! Is this braised pork so strong that it can even cover the aroma of sesame paste?"

Hearing this, Wu Mei immediately realized that these people had misunderstood her just like she did.

"It's not the kind of sesame paste we eat. It's a kind of mahjong game, similar to the leaf cards we used to have."

Hearing this, Li Zhibin and Xiao Xuemu immediately thought of the things on Jiang Qi's table when they went to deliver something last night.

"The one you put on the table last night?"

Wu Mei nodded.

Hearing this, Li Zhibin and Xiao Xuemu were both heartbroken. Li Zhibin looked at Wei Wei and Jiang Qi with an accusing look on his face.

"Okay! When you two have problems, you call me big brother, big brother, and second brother so sweetly.

But when you come across something fun, you don’t take us with you and play secretly by yourself. You are really great.”

Hearing this, Wei Wei and Jiang Qi immediately denied it.

"No, absolutely not. How could we be such people?"

Wei Wei also nodded, "Yeah, we played it for the first time last night as well."

When Wei Wei saw Xiao Xuemu and Li Zhibin, her eyes flashed.

"Do you guys want to come play together?"

These two are rich, so you can play with them for money. Playing with Wu Mei and Liu Jiaojiao is fun, but there is no prize at all, so just leave it that way!

Because there is no point in competing if there is no money involved, but Xiao Xuemu and Li Zhibin are definitely not short of money, so it is fun to play with them.

After hearing this, Xiao Xuemu and Li Zhibin felt much better.

"Okay!"

Hearing this, Wei Wei immediately ran back to get the mahjong.

Let Liu Jiaojiao, Wu Mei, Xiao Xuemu and Li Zhibin play, Wei Wei and Jiang Qi stand next to Xiao Xuemu and Li Zhibin to teach respectively, while Yu Xi learns next to Liu Jiaojiao and Wu Mei.

The rules of mahjong are actually very simple. After listening to Wei Wei and Jiang Qi explain the rules, Xiao Xuemu and Li Zhibin knew how to play it after just one game.

After playing less than three games, the two of them were able to play very smoothly, even smoother than Wu Mei and Liu Jiaojiao.

Seeing Xiao Xuemu and Li Zhibin like this, Wei Wei and Jiang Qi's eyes lit up.

Now that I have found my card partner, I will have something to play with and won’t be bored anymore.
