“I think Xi Xi’s idea is pretty good. When I get to the county town, it’s not like I will stay at home and do nothing. I saw that some of the women actually make crafts to sell or get part-time jobs for some extra money. I can also do that. This way, I can shoulder some household expenses. The remaining money can also also be used to feed the children.”
Chen Li agreed with Yun Xi’s words as she continued.
“We still need to find a house that is suitable for us to live in together. This should be quite troublesome! Furthermore, how should we explain to the old man that our family going to move out and live independently?”
Yun Shan was first moved by these words, but then he remembered that the old man was still alive and that the family did not split up. If Yun Shan’s family move out at this time, they would be accused of being disloyal and unfilial.
“I think grandfather is not an unreasonable person. We just have to talk to him properly and they will definitely agree to let us live in the county. After all, we are going to live in the county not because we have to stay away from the Yun Family, but because we really have work and it is more convenient that way.”
Yun Xi was well aware of Old Master Yun’s character. If Old Master Yun was willing to agree, no one else would be able to cause any trouble.
Yun Xi saw that Yun Shan was still hesitating and continued speaking, “When the time comes, our family of four can move to the county. Our family’s standard of living has also risen recently. We can directly let Yun Yang study in the county’s primary school. The standard of education in the county will definitely be much higher than in our village. Up until now, our family hasn’t had a single promising child. Don’t you want Yun Yang to become the most promising child in the Yun Family?”
This matter was also Yun Shan’s regret. As the Old Lady had been biased toward Yun Gang since young, Yun Shan lost the opportunity to climb higher and go to school when he was young.
Therefore, no matter how difficult the family conditions were, Yun Shan hoped that one of his two daughters could go out and study. At that time, the people from Yun Lin’s family were still laughing at him. What was the use of girls studying? When the time comes, they would still have to marry someone else and become someone else’s wife.
Yun Lin’s family did not even value their son’s studies, let alone their daughters. Therefore, it was very difficult for Yun Lin and his wife to raise a talented child. Fortunately, Yun Qiao was a good child and he might be able to have a bright future on his own.
However, if the parents could afford it, who would be willing to let their child go out and suffer? Yun Shan also hoped that Yun Yang could receive a good education when he was young. After all, parents would also feel very proud to see their child become successful.
“That’s right. I have obtained a few acres of good land. If we are to be frugal, these few acres of good land would be able to earn the expenses needed for Yun Yang to go to school. I still hope that our children can be literate.”
Chen Li also chimed in from the side, trying to persuade Yun Shan just like Yun Xi.
Yun Shan fell silent. The pros and cons of this matter started to run wild in his mind.
The pros of this matter were definitely greater than the cons. However, Yun Shan was more or less stupid and loyal. He always felt that his eldest brother’s family’s conditions were better than his own. If he had now become the first son to move out of the Yun family, how would people look at him?
Yun Shan still cared a lot about what the public thought of him.
“Dad, don’t hesitate any longer. If you hesitate any longer, you might miss out on Yun Yang’s opportunity to go to the county primary school. If that happens, you might delay his entire life. Besides, Uncle Yun Gang’s family hasn’t moved away from the Yun family because he hasn’t been promoted yet. If he were to be promoted to the town or county, he would definitely choose to move, given his high-profile personality. We are not trying to split up the family. We just have to make the decision base on our circumstances.”
Yun Xi first used Yun Yang’s future as a small threat. She then analyzed the situation of Yun Gang’s family. She understood their intentions and told Yun Shan about the final outcome of the matter.
“Alright, we’ll listen to you then. We’ll move to the county town. When I find a suitable time, I’ll let father know.”
There were only four people in the family. Three of them agreed to move to the county, so the remaining one would naturally obey the majority.
