Chapter 338 She Decides to Take the Initiative
Lin Ping seemed to understand but not quite, and after thinking silently for a while, he said, "Sister, you're too realistic. I think your husband treats you very well. Could it be that you're overthinking it?"
"I did not deny how good he was to me."
"You don't trust your brother-in-law? Did he do something to make you feel insecure?"
Lin Yuyao smiled and shook her head. "No, I just can't guarantee that a person's life will remain unchanged, including my own."
"Huh? You'll change your mind?"
Lin Yuyao: "..." This little fool, she shouldn't have talked to him about such profound questions.
Go sweep your floor.
Lin Ping muttered as he swept the floor, "You're living too hard. If it were someone else, look at how well they married into a good family, wouldn't they be enjoying life? To maintain that kind of lifestyle, they'd definitely have a child as soon as possible, but you..."
"Shut up." Hearing that annoyed her.
In her view, marrying into a wealthy family and then quickly having a child to protect her position is the dumbest and worst strategy.
What she thought was to use the resources she could get to improve herself as quickly as possible, so that she would be a good match for the Fu family; that was the best strategy.
Of course, this is just her personal opinion, and she knows that some people disagree.
But she didn't want her family to be so clueless, and she didn't want Lin Ping to have the idea that 'my sister married into the Fu family, so he can get some help from her.'
Don't be fooled by the fact that my in-laws give us a thousand yuan for living expenses. To outsiders, that's an astronomical sum, and it would be foolish to work yourself to death with that money.
What do they know?
"They've only just gotten married, and they only see the good in each other. But when people get along, friction is inevitable, and they'll have different opinions on the same issues. If there's a disagreement, and you're taking their money, you won't dare to argue with them."
What if they stop for you in a fit of anger? It's easy to go from frugality to extravagance, but difficult to go from extravagance to frugality. Without that thousand, who can guarantee they can instantly adapt to a life of poverty? What will they do then? Even if I can maintain harmonious relations with them indefinitely, what about a year later? Ten years later?
Now I think a thousand is a lot, but will a thousand still be a lot in ten years? Will I have to actively ask for more money because of inflation? Lin Ping, once you start asking for money, your spine is bent, and you'll always be inferior to others.
Lin Ping: "Oh, so you don't doubt your brother-in-law, but rather your in-laws."
Lin Yuyao: "..." It's like casting pearls before swine.
However, it must be said that Lin Ping is still young. He has lived in a simple environment all his life, and his thinking is inevitably limited by his upbringing.
She was also worried that Lin Ping might use Fu Huaiyi's name to do things.
Lin Ping clicked his tongue twice. "Sis, I feel you're too rational and lack a bit of human touch."
Lin Yuyao: “…”
"I feel like you don't love my brother-in-law. My brother-in-law is so pitiful."
"Go away!" she said angrily, smacking him on the head.
"What do you know about love? How can I not love?"
"I don't understand, so I'm just sharing my own feelings. Perhaps... you don't understand either?"
Lin Yuyao said irritably, "Do you understand if I don't?"
"I didn't say I understood."
"Then why are you talking nonsense?"
As they talked, the two started arguing, each saying something to the other, neither willing to give in.
Finally, Lin Yuyao sighed again, "Lin Ping, I don't doubt your brother-in-law, nor do I distrust your parents-in-law. I'm not targeting anyone; I'm just stating the truth that I believe is right. Now I'm telling you this, and you can take in as much as you can."
Everyone is an individual, so everyone's thoughts are different. It's normal if you think I'm wrong; I won't force you to agree with my point of view.
After saying that, she stopped talking.
As she said, everyone is an independent individual, and she would not force Lin Ping to agree with her views.
However, she wanted to tell him that she herself had no intention of being a freeloader, so he, as her brother-in-law who was a distant relative, should think it over carefully and not expect his brother-in-law to do anything for him.
Lin Ping did take this advice to heart, but after taking it to heart, he felt very guilty.
Because he did receive some preferential treatment because of Fu Huaiyi.
At school, the leaders all knew he was Fu Huaiyi's brother-in-law, and they would occasionally take care of him.
When they got married, his brother-in-law even took him to meet the family.
Oh God, I dare not let her know.
"I remember, I...I went to clean the outhouse."
Get out of here quickly.
Lin Yuyao shook her head as she watched his hasty retreat, then glanced down at the address on the table; it wasn't far.
Fu Huaiyi came back tonight, and he came back quite early.
Seeing Lin Ping wasn't too surprising; he knew he'd be on holiday around this time.
"I got a tan."
Lin Ping didn't care at all, saying, "Who doesn't get tanned in the summer? I'll get my fair skin back in the winter."
Fu Huaiyi sat down and looked at him, asking, "How's school?"
"Not bad."
"Are there many academic classes?"
Lin Ping looked surprised. "How did you know we've been having more academic classes lately?"
How could he not know that we need to continue cultivating new talent?
However, he didn't say that to him. He only said, "The first year focuses on your physical education, and the second year focuses on your professional education. That's how we got through it too."
"Oh, so they're all the same."
"Hmm, can you understand those things?"
Lin Ping frowned and said, "It's quite complicated. It feels a bit... a bit... I can't quite put my finger on it."
"Completely baffled?"
Lin Ping nodded hurriedly, "Yes, yes, I just couldn't figure it out, and then... sigh!"
He sighed deeply before saying, "Suddenly I realize that the gap between us and others is enormous."
Fu Huaiyi nodded in agreement and said, "There's nothing we can do; our country started developing later. But it's okay. We'll start working hard from our generation. If this generation can't catch up, there's always the next generation. We'll eventually catch up."
While Lin Yuyao was making dinner, the two of them were discussing their major courses.
After dinner, Lin Ping chatted for a few more minutes before going upstairs.
Lin Yuyao was just about to talk to Fu Huaiyi about choosing home appliances.
"Mom called and said she's already bought it and wants us to come take a look. If everything's okay, she'll have it delivered to the new house. When are you free?"
"I definitely don't have time. I don't even get weekends off."
"Huh? Then I'll go by myself?"
"Sure, go check it out and make sure there are no problems. I don't understand it either."
Lin Yuyao: "..." No wonder you can't understand.
"Okay, I'll go tomorrow."
As he took a shower and sat on the bed, about to lie down, she suddenly rolled over and straddled him.
Lin Ping said she didn't love him, so she had to take the initiative.
Fu Huaiyi's heart was racing, and he was completely bewildered. What had happened?
Lin Yuyao: "What's with that expression?"
What expression should I make?
Do you have something to say?
Lin Yuyao: "Is it because I have something to say that I'm like this?"
No, she doesn't act like that whether something's wrong or not.
But... why did she suddenly become so proactive?
It flattered him, but also made him feel uneasy.
Lin Yuyao urged him to hurry up with her eyes.
As a result, I had too many thoughts on my mind, and it just wouldn't work.
The overwhelming sense of defeat caused cold sweat to break out on his forehead.
