Chapter 728 Endless Farewells
"Well... sigh! Of course, it depends on your own willingness. I'm just mentioning it casually."
Sister Zhao talks a lot during work hours, and even after Tang Xiaofen refused, she kept nagging.
It's not that I necessarily wanted to persuade Tang Xiaofen to agree; it's just that it was the middle of the night and the surroundings were eerily quiet.
She kept talking, partly to bolster her courage, and partly to keep herself from getting bored.
"If you want to remarry, for the sake of your child, it's best to find someone who can't have children. Since he doesn't have any children of his own, he'll definitely treat your child as his own. If you find someone who can have children, he'll definitely make you have another one. Of course, having more children is a good thing, but the key is that after you have your own child, your previous child's life will definitely be difficult."
"If you want to remarry, you should definitely consider him first."
Tang Xiaofen was both amused and exasperated, but finally replied, "Okay, I've got it."
Sister Zhao didn't mind. She was considering things from Tang Xiaofen's perspective, thinking that men who couldn't have children were more suitable for divorce and raising children alone.
Of course, not getting married is also an option.
They have formal jobs, which, barring any unforeseen circumstances, are secure and they can work until retirement.
Since I don't rely on men for a living anyway, and marriage wouldn't bring any benefits, I might as well not get married.
……
Lin Yuyao received the keys to the house and officially began renovations.
Several of the renovation team members were familiar faces; they were the ones who renovated Lin Yuyao's and her husband's wedding home.
"Miss Lin, you've already renovated a new house so soon?"
Lin Yuyao smiled and said, "Yes, I'm sorry to trouble you again this time."
"No trouble at all, it's our job."
Their house is right next to Fu Leyi's penthouse, and both houses were renovated together by the same renovation service company's team.
Lin Yuyao finalized a relatively modern renovation plan, which was functional yet had a touch of classical charm in its overall style.
Fu Leyi's family is different. Both the old house in Fu's hometown and the house she lives in now have an antique charm.
She was tired of looking at it; she thought it was completely outdated.
She wanted a luxurious European-style house. Lin Yuyao had seen the picture, and if this were decades later, it would definitely be criticized as a nouveau riche style.
The result will be absolutely dazzling and golden.
That huge crystal chandelier that fell from the third-floor roof was terrifying.
However, it fits the luxurious aesthetic of this era.
She's been even busier since the house renovation started.
The two children are cared for by a nanny, but they still need someone from their own family to look after them.
Ye Lian has to run around several times a day. She is used to climbing slopes and hills to do farm work. Although she doesn't feel very tired, she still told Lin Yuyao in private that she was glad that her older brother bought a house where she didn't have to climb stairs.
"Lin Ping has been gone for several months now. That kid hasn't even called back. I wonder how he's doing."
“Regular phones can’t receive long-distance calls, so of course you can’t receive his calls. Don’t worry, Mom, he’s fine.”
The older brother was worried that he wouldn't be able to contact his family if something happened, so he connected to Lin Yuyao's family's phone line and installed a telephone for his own home as well.
The two families live in the same building, so it's easy to just run a cable down to each other.
Did he call me?
"No, but Fu Huaiyi said he's fine. They've already contacted my sister-in-law, who's been there for over two years and knows her very well. Don't worry, nothing will happen."
Ye Lian nodded and said, "I'm not worried about him getting into trouble. Even young girls aren't afraid, so why should I worry about a grown man like him? I was just asking casually."
Lin Yuyao: "..." Still so stubborn.
"By the way, how's the house renovation going?"
"It's being renovated right now. Such a big villa, even if they expedite the renovation, it would still take several months."
"That's true. Your older brother's house will be ready in a few days. Do you think it would be okay if I let your dad spend some time relaxing and decorating it?"
Lin Yuyao: "..." No, do you think this is the house back home?
Old Man Lin himself tidied up the house in his hometown.
"That definitely won't work. The water, electricity, and gas systems in villas are very complex, unlike houses in the countryside where you can just run a few wires. Professional things should be left to professionals."
Lin Yuyao paused for a moment and said, "How about this, you can also find Sister Leyi's renovation team."
"Oh? That won't do," Ye Lian refused, saying, "It's fine if you let them help you with the renovations, after all, you have a son-in-law relationship with them. If we try to take advantage of them, won't people gossip about us?"
Lin Yuyao was both amused and exasperated. "Mom, what nonsense are you talking about? Sister Leyi's company has its own renovation service department, which makes money by renovating houses for people. By having Sister Leyi's renovation service department do the renovations, you're bringing them business. How can that be considered taking advantage?"
"what?"
"No, please. We'll give them whatever amount is due. It's better to let our own relatives earn money than outsiders, isn't it?"
Hearing her say that, Ye Lian finally understood.
"I thought they were doing the renovations for you for free. Wait, what if I remember that they renovated your house for free?"
“That’s different. We didn’t spend any money on the renovation of our wedding room, but my aunt said that the renovation was a wedding gift for us.”
"Oh, right, I remember now. That's good. I'll talk to your older brother about it later and see what he says."
"Ah."
My older brother is often away from home and rarely comes back.
He would occasionally come back, but only stay for three to five days before leaving again.
He doesn't have time to manage the renovations, so he's happy to let a professional renovation team do the job.
He immediately made the decision, entrusting the matter to Lin Yuyao, and said he would only be responsible for providing the funds.
My brother now has a fleet of about a hundred or eighty vehicles; once they're running, they're money in the bank.
Having made money, he became wealthy and arrogant.
……
Time flies, and summer is here in the blink of an eye.
In previous years, Lin Ping would have already come to work during this time.
I'm not used to Lin Ping not coming this year.
Lin Yuyao and her colleagues are preparing to move their offices. Each department will move in one by one, and the entire office needs to be moved within three months.
Knowing they were leaving, Zhou Jing felt very reluctant.
"We've known each other for so many years, and now you're suddenly leaving... Sigh! I really don't want you to go."
Zhou Jing was a friend Lin Yuyao had known since she was down on her luck, making her a very special friend.
Not only was Zhou Jing reluctant to part with it, but Lin Yuyao was equally reluctant.
"It's okay, we often run into each other downstairs, and we often see each other when we're out walking our kids in the evening."
"Didn't you say you were moving to a new house before the new year? That's only a few months away."
Lin Yuyao: “…”
"We're all in this area, so we'll run into each other often."
All good things must come to an end; the adult world is a constant cycle of saying goodbye.
Zhou Jing naturally understood that it was just a casual remark.
