Reborn in the Eighties as a Housewife with a Space

Chapter 1678: Chapter 1672: Planning for the Future

And there are quite a few moms having a hard time, especially when the elders in the family don’t help out and even say sarcastic things, creating conflicts between the son and daughter-in-law. That’s really frustrating.

Of course, people say that in the first ten years, you look at the mother-in-law, in the next ten years, you look at the daughter-in-law. If you want family harmony, both sides need to consider each other more.

It’s not that the hardships the elderly endured should be passed on to their daughters-in-law. Those elderly who understand how tough it is for women are the ones who really know how to treat people because when one person does well, the whole family benefits.

Of course, there are sometimes strong-willed and thoughtless daughters-in-law, too. As the saying goes, it takes two to tango. If the daughter-in-law is thoughtless, the elderly will also be worried. So, people should empathize with each other to live happily and fully.

Now that Nangong Beiying has this opinion, Qin Xue thinks it’s reasonable. After all, as women, it’s normal for Nangong Beiying to consider women’s issues more.

So, people are like this sometimes; they sympathize with the weak. What Qin Xue and Nangong Beiying need to do is to uplift these weak groups.

“I’ve assigned this task specifically to Rain. If there’s anything, just find Rain,” said Nangong Beiying, who had chosen Rain for this role from the start, though she hadn’t decided on extra help.

Because she hadn’t decided on what kind of work the moms could do, this issue was still being planned, and everything would be figured out after returning to the Imperial Capital.

“Alright, then Rain will become the kids’ leader. My kids will be left to you too,” pondered Qin Xue, wondering if having Rain as the kindergarten head would make the kids go wild.

“I have no problem with that, no matter how many come, I’ll take them. But no crying allowed, or else I’ll make them stand as punishment,” said Rain, remembering how she was trained as a child, having to complete training even if she cried. Until they got used to it.

“Uh, the people haven’t even arrived yet, and you’re already thinking about punishment? Don’t you think that’s a bit much?” Qin Xue was at a loss for words.

Honestly, handling several kids on your own can really drive you crazy. Well-behaved ones are fine, but for those who aren’t, it’s a headache waiting to explode.

But with Rain’s lively personality, she should be able to win the kids over. So, Qin Xue is confident about this.

“No way around it, sometimes you have to handle things a bit differently, right?” Rain didn’t mean anything else, she just remembered how it was for herself as a kid.

“Alright, anyway, Yingying said once things are settled, this lot is yours to manage. Do as you wish, just don’t let anyone complain,” Qin Xue said, knowing how some parents wouldn’t tolerate the slightest grievance for their children.

“As long as they behave, I promise to take good care of them,” Rain assured confidently.

“Aren’t you guys a bit hasty? I haven’t even decided how to proceed and you’re already discussing this. Instead of that, why not help think about how to refine this plan,” said Nangong Beiying, feeling these two were a tad too eager.

“That’s for you to think about. I’m not skilled in these matters,” Qin Xue said. She was good at diagnosing patients but couldn’t manage a company.

So, the final plan needs Nangong Beiying to decide, to wrap up and conclude.

“I’ve never wanted Chenchen here so much as I do now,” thought Nangong Beiying. If Chenchen were here, it would ease her burden significantly. She wondered if Qing Zhu could be Chenchen. If she were, she would pull her in to take over, saving herself the hassle of thinking so much.

“I’m the same way. Whenever I can’t figure something out, I just want Chenchen,” Qin Xue said, relating to the feeling she had when she first arrived. But now that she’s used to it, she doesn’t think about it as much.
