Chapter 1389: Go And Look For A Job

While Han Shu cooked with Wang Xiaoqin, she counseled her and told her many things. After lunch, Han Shu and Wang Xiaoqin had to bring Han Yu to the fields to work.

But Father and Mother Han stayed at home and did nothing.

Han Jing could not stand it, but she knew that criticizing them was useless.

So she left with Elder Brother’s family. She took Han Yu’s hand and said to Han Shu, “Elder Brother, I’m bringing Little Yu out and going to find something for her to eat. She barely ate anything just now.”

Han Shu looked at his daughter’s thin body and nodded. “Go ahead! Don’t come back so early, or they’ll force you to do this and that!”

Han Jing looked at the two of them and said helplessly, “Elder Brother, our parents are still young! They’re not yet at retirement age. There’s so much work to be done in the fields. How can they just depend on the two of you? How much can you earn in a year? And you still have to support the three of them.”

Wang Xiaoqin lowered her head. She did not dare to say anything.

Han Shu sighed. “I can’t help it either. If they come, they’ll just make a mess.”

Han Jing said, “You have to think of a way to solve this problem. If we continue like this, it won’t benefit our family. We’ll just get poorer and poorer. We mustn’t continue to indulge our parents. They have to be forced to work even if they don’t want to. We still have a younger brother! Why should they retire and stay home?”

Han Shu frowned.

“Don’t frown. I know they’re our parents. But as their children, we cannot just go along with them in everything. Elder Brother, Sister-in-law and Little Yu are your family. Father and Mother will certainly live with Younger Brother in the future. You had better think about how to care for your wife and child! When they’re really old, you can do your filial duty. But you cannot allow them to leech on you like that now. Or how will you support them when they’re old?”

Han Shu did not say anything. He was helpless. These two old people really made his head ache.

Han Jing made a suggestion. “How about this? I’ll go and find a job for Sister-in-law. Even if it’s just washing dishes at a restaurant, she can leave. Then you only have to give our parents some money every month. With money, they will be forced to work.

“By the time Sister-in-law leaves, it will be winter. You can go out and work too and be with Sister-in-law. Don’t bother about all these family matters. With money, you can send Little Yu to school. I’ll be earning money then, and if Little Yu needs money for her education, I will certainly provide it. No matter what, she must graduate from university.”

Wang Xiaoqin raised her head in shock and looked at Han Jing in disbelief when she said she would help Wang Xiaoqin find a job and even help her daughter graduate from university.

Han Shu shook his head and said, “They will never agree. If your sister-in-law and I leave, there will be no one to work the fields and wait on them.”

Han Jing smiled, “Maybe not. Now you give them some money regularly and they spend all their time complaining about how they’re supporting you for nothing. If you leave, the family won’t need to support you anymore. They can work in the fields, and whatever they achieve will belong to Younger Brother. They may not be unwilling.”

Han Shu did not know what to say.

Han Jing said, “Anyway, I don’t care. I refuse to allow the family to continue like that. It’s too terrible. We don’t even have a glimmer of hope.

“Elder Brother, take Sister-in-law and leave. Bring Little Yu with you so she can go to school. When you’ve earned money out there, you can come back and repair the house. That way, even if they say you’re unfilial, the villagers won’t believe them.”
