Chapter 69 Walking hand in hand
On the first day of the wedding, the two got up in the morning, finished washing up, had breakfast, and started packing their luggage.
They have six days off and can relax in other cities to enjoy the scenery of China.
Speaking of which, now is not a good time to travel, the weather is a little hot, but they have no choice.
Both of them have their own work arrangements, so it is not easy to get this short holiday.
At this time, the marriage leave ranges from one to three days, and if the couple is not in the same place, there is still a day off.
Lin Zixuan and Mu Shanshan only have three days of legal leave, and they have to ask for three days off from the unit.
Lin Zixuan is fine. If he asks for leave, Li Hong will definitely criticize him. Mu Shanshan will be difficult to handle. Her program is one episode every week. The TV station has its own arrangements and will not adjust the time of the entire program team for one person.
Therefore, Mu Shanshan will record the program immediately after she comes back.
After packing their luggage, they went out and returned to Lin Zixuan's house at 10 o'clock, bought vegetables on the way, and started cooking lunch after arriving at home. Lin Boqing and Zheng Xiulian would come back to have dinner later.
This is the first meal the new wife cooks, and she must have something to eat.
In China, the relationship between mother-in-law and daughter-in-law has always been a difficult problem, and it would be even more a disaster if the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law lived together.
Due to the differences in personality and living habits, conflicts will inevitably occur after getting along for a long time. It is inevitable that parents will have troubles and quarrels, and getting angry and cold wars are common.
Why do everyone love Liu Huifang? It is because Liu Huifang is an ideal character, a typical example of a good wife and mother.
Lin Zixuan doesn’t have to worry about this problem for the time being. They can avoid conflicts if they don’t live with their parents.
At the dinner table, Zheng Xiulian asked the two of them what they planned and when they planned to have children. She could retire early to help take care of the children.
The topics of marriage and having children are always linked. If both husband and wife go to work, then the care of children will fall on the elderly at home.
Zheng Xiulian felt empty when her son started a family and moved out of this family, and she always hoped that she could have some hope.
If Zheng Xiulian retires early, she will not get a pension, and she can take care of the next generation. This is the choice of many parents.
They don’t think too much about themselves, but more about their children.
China has not yet entered an aging society and has no idea of postponing retirement age. The unit hopes that employees can retire early to free up space for young people to solve the increasingly severe employment problems.
Lin Zixuan and Mu Shanshan have no plans to have children for the time being.
How can a third party be allowed to appear just now? The young people of their generation have different ideas from their parents and hope to live their own lives.
The country is vigorously promoting late marriage and late childbirth, which will be glorious for the life of the revolution to have only one child.
This large-scale publicity has quietly changed the concept of fertility in young people in big cities. The previous concept of "many children and more blessings" became the object of criticism.
This created the most "independent" generation in China.
After lunch, Lin Boqing and Zheng Xiulian went to work, and Lin Zixuan and Mu Shanshan discussed this issue at home.
"Do you want children?" Mu Shanshan asked seriously.
"I don't want to." Lin Zixuan simply said, "If you have a child, you won't take me to heart."
"You are still jealous of your child, you are so naughty." Mu Shanshan said in a daze.
"Aren't we still young? We must respond to the call of the country, strive to be good young people, contribute to national construction, and consider personal matters later." Lin Zixuan shouted slogans and sang high-profile.
"Then why didn't you say that to our mother just now? I didn't know what to say." Mu Shanshan complained.
"I'm not stupid, isn't I asking for scolding me?" Lin Zixuan said naturally.
"I'll let me suffer alone, you're relaxed." Mu Shanshan said dissatisfied.
"Our division of labor is different. You can help me with it here. I will help you with it when I turn back. My mother is reluctant to say to you, and your mother is reluctant to say to me. This way, I will fool things away." Lin Zixuan explained.
"You have many ideas, my mother will definitely not urge me to have a child." Mu Shanshan said confidently.
In the afternoon, the two returned to Mu Shanshan's house, bought vegetables and cooked dinner.
There is no way, marriage is never a matter for two people. You have to take care of both families and not favor one or the other, otherwise it will easily cause conflicts, which requires more attention in daily life.
For example, when you go to which restaurant to have dinner on weekends, you should consider balance when buying things for both parents, how to celebrate the Chinese New Year, etc.
This is how life is. It is these trivial matters that constitute the harmony and stability of the family.
Mu Shanshan was not right. During dinner, Li Hong also mentioned the child's problem.
No matter how high the education level is or where they are, the basic concepts of their generation are the same, believing that after getting married and having a house, the next step is to have children.
Mu Shanshan is the only daughter, and Mu Zhiyuan and Li Hong are more eager to have grandchildren or granddaughter.
Mu Shanshan winked at Lin Zixuan, meaning that it was your turn to show off. She agreed to take the lead and couldn't retreat.
"Shanshan and I feel that work is just on track now, and Shanshan's program still has room for improvement. After we have a certain degree of results and savings, we will have a little free time before we have a child." Lin Zixuan said with a tough bullet.
At this time, he didn't dare to sing high-profile, so he could only talk about his personal career.
"It's good that young people should put their career first." Mu Zhiyuan agreed, "What are your plans in the future? Lao Zhou told me that you should continue to write novels, which is more advanced than being a screenwriter."
In this era, writers are still very respected professions, and screenwriters are a little more subtle and not of high quality.
Lin Zixuan did not give up on the promising profession of writers, but he had no time and no one urged him. He was mainly trapped in love and was a little lazy.
"I have a conception and am preparing to write it. I will write a long article this time." Lin Zixuan responded.
"It's fine if you have an idea." Mu Zhiyuan nodded.
He was very relieved about Lin Zixuan's talent. He and Li Hong often talked about Lin Zixuan, from "The Stubborn Lord" to "Desire", and this time "The Foreign Girl", which is enough to show the achievements of this son-in-law in literature.
After dinner, Lin Zixuan and Mu Shanshan returned home, took a little rest, and then took their luggage to the Beijing Railway Station.
They took the train at night and arrived in Shanghai during the day tomorrow, which was their first stop on their trip.
In the waiting room, the two of them leaned together, listening to the sounds coming from the radio, they felt very calm.
In the past, when traveling, either Lin Zixuan gave Mu Shanshan or Mu Shanshan gave Lin Zixuan. Once they parted, they always missed each other and were in a state of uneasy. This time they went together and didn’t have to worry about each other. This feeling was very good.
