A few days later, they received reply from everyone, and with them, they received several checks with numbers written on them.
Chen Yiyan put their checks together and calculated that her second brother was the vice president of China Central Bank at the time, and her salary was the highest in the Chen family, so her second brother directly gave 500 oceans, Lu's parents gave 300, and her own parents gave 300. In addition, the 200 yuan given by her elder brother, she received a total of 1,300 yuan. According to the exchange rate at that time, it was about 300 pounds.
At this time, 300 pounds can do a lot of things, and their purchasing power is 50 times that of later generations. Chen Yi-chan passed away early. If she included the economic crises after her death, her purchasing power was doubled than that of later generations. At this time, 300 pounds could lead a well-off life in London, because at this time, the monthly salary of ordinary British people was about 10 pounds, and 300 pounds could even buy a small apartment.
Chen Yiyan happily collected the checks and started reading letters from her family. The second brother received education with her elder brother since she was a child. Both of them were enlightened teachers, not to mention that after returning from studying abroad, they both became disciples of Xu Guanghong, a great scholar in the world. Although the two were completely different in character, their ideas about marriage problems were quite similar. When they opened the letter, they found that the second brother was indeed talking to the elder brother, and even the second brother's tone was more serious than the elder brother, because Lu Yunhe used to be a husband who was favored by her second brother. The second brother considered Lu Yunhe's family and Lu Yunhe's own talent, but he did not consider whether Lu Yunhe would like her or whether the two would be suitable. Now she and Lu Yunhe have collapsed. The second brother felt that she had not managed the marriage well, so he scolded her and finally gave her money.
Chen Yiyan put down his second brother's letter and picked up the Lu parents. Seeing that the handwriting was written by Lu's father, Lu's father's first sentence expressed his point: "You are the daughter-in-law recognized by my Lu family. Zhijie is making trouble, don't be like him. I will teach Zhijie a lesson in this matter: You should take good care of your health, and you will spend 300 yuan for your expenses. In the future, you will send you money every month. You will take good care of yourself and Zhijie there. Zhijie was just stunned for a moment and will be fine after a while."
Chen Yiyan didn't expect Lu Yunhe's parents to write something special when writing a letter to her. Whose parents don't love their children? Even if she gave birth to a eldest grandson for the Lu family, she would still be an outsider.
Finally, she opened the letter written by her parents. Looking at the words on the envelope, she knew that this was written by the fourth brother on his behalf. The fourth brother's words felt like they were youthful and unrestrained. Therefore, the fourth brother also loved Lu Yunhe the most in his previous life. He and Lu Yunhe were even close friends for life.
The letter begins with: "Yi Yan, I am very disappointed with you. I have educated you before you get married. Don't say 'no' to your in-laws. You must be filial to your parents-in-law and please your husband. Why can't you learn? Even when you learn from others, you are jealous. It's not new to men. How can you stop them as a big house?..." Although the handwriting belongs to the fourth brother, you can tell at a glance that it was said by her mother. Her mother was educated by a standard girl from the boudoir, and her daughters were also completely old-fashioned.
Chen Yiyan quickly browsed Mu's letter, almost three lines at a glance. Anyway, she could probably guess the old clichés that Mu's said. When she saw the end of the letter, she wrote: "Since you have married into the Lu family, you are from the Lu family. Our Chen family has not been abandoned and returned home. You can do it yourself!"
It would be fake to say that she was not disappointed at the end, but the attitude of these people in her previous life was almost the same. Even though she would be a little hurt after experiencing things she had experienced before, she was a little bit hurt after all, and she was still in her 80s and was quite thoughtful. Moreover, Chen Yiyan didn't bother with the content of the letter when she saw those checks.
Divorce is now unacceptable to her relatives, and the word "divorce" is widely known to the public. It was also after she and Lu Yunhe divorced. Lu Yunhe entered the newspaper to declare that they had divorced and became the first couple in the world to divorce according to the law. Since then, more people have divorced. Otherwise, how could Lu Yunhe proudly say after the divorce that he broke through the siege of feudal ideas, liberated his nature, and let more people look for true love!
In the afternoon, I replied slowly to everyone. First, I replied to my elder brother. She actually thought about the reply to him for several days and didn't know what to say. In fact, she had something to say to him and his family, but she was afraid of being hurt. The older she was, the more she was afraid of pain, especially this kind of family affection problem.
She recalled some things from her childhood to her elder brother: "I remember when I was a child, I cried so hard that I could not marry my feet. My mother said she would not marry her feet. She said she would not marry her feet. She said to me and my mother at that time: 'If my younger sister can't marry her, I will raise her for the rest of her life', brother, are you still the elder brother who said she would raise me for the rest of her life? Lu Yunhe is not important to you. What is important is that if we divorce, the marriage relationship between the Lu and Chen families will be broken; what is important is that you and Lu Yunhe have no in-laws to maintain, you are
I love Lu Yunhe so much, even more than I love me, the little sister you watched grow up. Can I understand that I am really not that important. My 'object' has not played a good role in connecting the two families. Now, can I disappear? Since you love Lu Yunhe even more, then you should think that you don't have me as a sister! The loss of Lu Yunhe in the Chen family is like a mourning examination and approval, so what about losing Chen Yiyan? Should everyone be happy? Don't worry about me anymore. Thanks to everyone's generous donation, it's enough for me to live a prosperous life in this countryside."
Chen Yiyi's reply to the second brother was almost the same as the eldest brother. The reply to his parents was a little more tactful, but he also wrote: "Since I believe that my life and death are from the Lu family, then my life will be my own. Please do not worry about it. I wish the two elders good luck."
Even an elderly person in his 80s still has the right to be willful.
Chen Yiqian wrote back to the two elders of the Lu family, only writing: "Thank you for your generous donation to solve my urgent needs, Zhijie is still gone without a trace. I don't know how long I can last for this kind of life. If Zhijie persists again, I will agree. I wish the two elders good luck and convey my longing for A Guang for me."
A few days later, Chen Yiyu finally finished her confinement. This time she had been pregnant for nearly three weeks, making herself delicious and delicious every day, and had a good mentality. Although her mood was slightly disturbed by several letters from her family, she could all be adjusted. When she was pregnant, she became a little fatter than before and had a rosy complexion.
After giving birth to her second son in her previous life, she felt more and more lochia under her body, which made her very distressed for a while. Later, she sent Chinese medicine to her family and drank it for a while. She would not have those worries in this life.
The first thing she did during her confinement period was that she took a hot bath and soaked in their small bathtub. She felt that she was about to soak in the soft water, but it was very comfortable. The hot water surrounded her, which made her feel a little more realistic about the rebirth of life.
The second thing she did after the confinement period was that she enthusiastically invited Huang Mude to a big meal, because Huang Mude really helped her a lot these days. Not only did she buy her daily food and daily necessities, but she also sent her letters and deposited checks, etc., which made her very grateful. During the confinement period, Huang Mude came to have two meals, and both ate a light confinement meal with her. This time she used her skills and cooked several dishes in the countryside with poor supplies, which made Huang Mude very happy.
When Huang Mude left, he was a little reluctant to speak. Chen Yi-chan didn't want to ask Lu Yunhe again. Huang Mude seemed to finally couldn't help saying: "Zhijie left Shaffor City..."
Chen Yiyi's soft tone was still: "Where has he been?"
"I heard I went to Paris."
Chen Yiqiu cleaned up the bowls and chopsticks on the table: "Oh, I understand, thank you."
"What do you plan to do in the future?"
Chen Yiyan glanced at Huang Mude, who was a little helpless in the spot. In Huang Mude's opinion, he seemed a little sorry for the food she made for him if he didn't tell Lu Yunhe's news. However, he was Lu Yunhe's friend, and he really felt like pancakes on two sides, which made Huang Mude very uncomfortable.
Chen Yiyan found it interesting. Thinking about Lu Yunhe's friends, Huang Mude was quite upright. I heard that there was an old-style wife in my hometown. However, in the past two years of going abroad, I have never heard that Huang Mude has found a new-style girl as his girlfriend outside. As Lu Yunhe's friends, it is quite rare. She said, "I plan to find a job first."
Huang Mude thought Chen Yiyan would go to find Lu Yunhe, but when he heard Chen Yiyan say he was going out to find a job, he repeated in surprise: "Looking for a job?"
After Chen Yiyan packed up the dishes, he took out the shaved cream to wipe his fingers carefully. A faint fragrance spread from her hand. Chen Yiyan said, "Yes, I can't sit like this and wait for others to help me. I have thought a lot these days and think I should stand up on my own. I heard that in Shafford City, women can be elected as officials. I don't ask to be an official, and I can support myself."
Of course, Huang Mude knew that Schaefer had just passed the bill for women to elect this bill, but he didn't expect that such words would be said from Chen Yi-chan, because in his impression, although Chen Yi-chan was very smart, he still had the taste of an old-fashioned woman, and was conservative and regarded his husband as the most.
Huang Mude can understand all these. After all, Chen Yiyan has not received an orthodox education in overseas study. Even though her brothers are progressive people in overseas study, she has only been to girls' schools in China for a few years. It is really worse than the upper class who teaches girls carefully and seriously.
Huang Mude said: "Your idea is really good. It seems that Schafer's wind of progress has also infected you."
He thought that although Chen Yiyu had not received much education, he was much better than the old-style women in China. If he could take the initiative to rely on his own hands, Huang Mude glanced at her slightly higher. He encouraged her and persuaded her not to come to the UK for nothing. He should have more knowledge and study more. Going out to work is also part of the training!
