Chapter 210 Agreed
At this time, very few people traveled far from home, especially girls, as the world outside was an unknown realm that families could not help but worry about.
Shen Yixiang looked at how easily her parents agreed to Yang PeiMin’s request and felt that it was rash. She said to Shen Erniu, "Dad, have you forgotten about Third Sister’s situation? Although the factory allocated a house to them, it’s only a two-bedroom. Where’s there any extra room? Her in-laws and younger sister-in-law live there too, not to mention her three kids."
She did not want Yang PeiMin to go to the county, believing that this woman would become restless once she entered the city. While her brother was struggling for life outside, Yang PeiMin should have stayed at home, obediently keeping watch over their home, instead of acting like she wanted to shrug off her rural identity and fly away. She’s already married, so why still dream of attending a university? Shen Yixiang thought Yang PeiMin was being meddlesome and stirring up trouble for nothing.
Shen Erniu said, "It’s fine; let your sister find a suitable and secure room in their compound, that will do."
Shen Yixiang grew even more anxious when Shen Erniu thought of this possibility for Yang PeiMin. "Dad, we still need to discuss this with Third Sister and her husband. It’s their business to help us out, and I don’t know if their mother would agree."
Yang PeiMin glanced at her, raising an eyebrow, "Yixiang, you don’t need to worry about that. I don’t need Third Sister’s charity. If it’s convenient for her, she can just keep an eye out for me; I’ll take care of the rent and food myself."
Then, she turned to Shen Erniu, "Dad, I’ll bring some stuff over tomorrow, and I’ll also stop by the internship class."
Shen Yiyue immediately said, "Sister-in-law, I’ll go with you. It might be quite an effort to find their place, and tomorrow is a rest day anyway."
