Zhang Qi said:
"Let me think about it."
Meng Li snorted and fell down to sleep. Zhang Qi also fell down to sleep. The two of them were speechless.
The next day, Meng Li took the child back to the client's natal home to have a look. He didn't know when the next meeting would be.
In the next few days, Meng Li looked like he was about to go out, and he didn't buy any food at home.
Zhang Qi frowned:
"You really want to go out?"
Meng Li nodded:
"It's not that you keep saying we go together, just go together."
Zhang Qi: "But I haven't said I must leave yet."
Meng Li said with some disappointment:
"You said it so seriously before, I took it seriously."
Zhang Qi:…
After the child fell asleep, Meng Li looked at the client's jewelry. The only one he had was a gold bracelet, which was considered the most valuable thing on his body.
Meng Li wrapped the bracelet in cloth and placed it close to his body.
As the days went by, Zhang Qi also met his future true love, Guo Liujun.
This completely confirmed Zhang Qi's idea of going to Haicheng.
Meng Li spoke first, she asked:
"Are we still going to Haicheng? The journey is not enough, why don't we sell the house?"
Zhang Qi:…
Miss Guo Liujun also told him that she sold her house to pay for the expenses before going to Haicheng. He thought it made sense, but he didn't know whether he agreed or not.
Unexpectedly, when she returned home, she also said she had sold the house.
He didn't say anything. He poured a glass of hot water and drank it while looking at Meng Li who was holding the child.
The color of her clothes was not pretty, she looked gray, and she seemed to have an old-fashioned air.
Like an old cabinet at home.
Meng Li would be speechless if he knew that Zhang Qi now disliked her for not wearing bright and beautiful clothes.
After marrying into the Zhang family, the conditions became worse and worse. If you want to dress beautifully, you have to have money. It's really like those women who wear jade bracelets, wear skirts, permed hair, and small leather shoes and dress up for free.
Meng Li looked at Zhang Qi from time to time, wondering what Zhang Qi was thinking.
After a while, Zhang Qicai said:
"Do you have a place to live if the house is sold?"
Meng Li: "Huh?"
"What do you mean?"
Meng Li looked shocked.
Zhang Qi said:
"I've thought about it. Now I don't know how to make a living in Haicheng. I don't know if I can make a living. I'm afraid I'll hurt you if I take you with me."
Meng Li: "I'm not afraid of suffering with you."
Zhang Qi: "But a child?"
Meng Li: "It's okay."
Zhang Qi:…
Why don't you just say it
Meng Li said:
"Actually, I can also find a job when I get to Haicheng. Isn't that equality? If you find a job, I will also find a job, and we can raise children together."
Zhang Qi looked a little disdainful:
"What do you do?"
Meng Li also wanted to give a disdainful expression in return, but decided not to. She asked seriously:
"What about you, what do you do?"
Zhang Qi was unhappy:
"You don't have to worry about it. Just take it one step at a time."
Meng Li said:
"Then I will take it one step at a time. Even if I serve the dishes there, I can still support my family."
Zhang Qi murmured in his heart that he could only achieve so much.
"In this case, Chunrong, the house is sold first. You take the children here first. I will pick you up when things stabilize over there." Zhang Qi said to Meng Li patiently.
Meng Li pursed his lips.
Oops, it’s weird to believe Zhang Qi’s nonsense.
In the plot, the client didn't want to go, so Zhang Qi ran away.
Now that she is willing to go, Zhang Qi still doesn't want to take her with her.
She said:
"But in these troubled times, I don't know when disaster will affect us here. What will happen if my child and I suffer disaster?"
Zhang Qi was completely impatient and said:
"It's more dangerous outside, but it's safer here."
"As a woman, you should take care of your children at home and wait for me to come back."
Meng Li: "What's wrong with women? Women can't go out? Didn't you say that men and women are equal?"
Zhang Qi:…
It’s so damn hard to refute.
Meng Li laughed a little when he saw Zhang Qi's irritated look. He didn't like the old idea of three obediences and four virtues that he talked about all day long, but at this time, he really liked women who had three obediences and four virtues.
"Can you please listen to me? You saw that man taking his wife and children with him when he went out to make a living." Zhang Qi felt helpless and irritable.
I must have been crazy before thinking about dragging my family to Haicheng, but now I think about it, it's really stupid.
Friends all go out alone without any worries. If he brings his wife and children, he is afraid of making people laugh behind his back.
Meng Li:
"No, I want to be free. I no longer want to be a woman oppressed by men. I want to stand up and pursue equality between men and women."
"You can go to the prosperous Haicheng, and I also want to see the world."
The veins on Zhang Qi's forehead twitched, his lips moved, and the curse words came to his lips and he swallowed them back.
His face was all red.
Very angry.
I used to admire those brave women who dared to shout such words, but now that it comes from my own wife's mouth, it is really unspeakably harsh.
"Who is telling you all this nonsense every day?" Zhang Qi stared at Meng Li for a long time, holding back these words.
Meng Li said quietly:
"It's you."
Zhang Qi: "Think carefully, life may be very difficult, and you may even die."
Meng Li: "I'm not afraid."
Zhang Qi said seriously:
"You'll die."
Meng Li: "I told you I'm not afraid, are you afraid?"
Zhang Qi took a deep breath and said:
"Okay, let me think about it."
Meng Li said oh and went out for a ride with the child in his arms.
Walking on the streets of the small town, the streets of the small town are now sparsely populated, everyone is having a hard time, and many shops can no longer operate and have closed.
Meng Li strolled for a while and then went home with the child in his arms.
After that, Zhang Qi didn't mention going to Haicheng or selling the house, but Meng Li knew that Zhang Qi was looking for a seller.
The town is so big, but in the plot the client is too focused on taking care of the children at home and doesn't know anything else.
Is it still the same recipe
Sure enough, a few days later, Zhang Qi came to trick Meng Li. He told Meng Li that he would send Meng Li back to her parents' house to play for a few days.
After visiting his parents, Meng Li said:
"I went back a few months ago."
Zhang Qi: "...Why didn't I know?"
Meng Li: "You're out."
"Then you can go back and have a look."
"No."
Zhang Qi was depressed, how could this person bring people to see the house with his children at home.
Meng Li said:
"Is anyone coming to see the house?"
Zhang Qi had a strange expression on his face: "What did you say?"
Meng Li said: "I heard Mrs. Wang at the street corner saying that our house was for sale, so I thought someone was coming to see the house."
Zhang Qi couldn't help but laugh twice and said unhappily:
"yes."
Now that we have discovered everything, we simply admit it.
Then Zhang Qi once again persuaded Meng Li to stay here with the child, waiting for him to come back to pick him up later.
Meng Li naturally disagreed.
