He was genuinely afraid that if he continued speaking, Wang Cuilan might change her mind again.
From beginning to end, neither Jiang Ran nor Pei Huai managed to get a word in.
Jiang Ran also knew that she and Pei Huai were just there as witnesses, there was really no need for them to say anything.
Pei Yang probably had mixed feelings inside, so after discussing, he didn’t continue further but instead stood up and returned to his room.
After he left, Wang Cuilan let out a long sigh.
"Tell me, why is he just like this? If it were in our village, someone his age would already be a father. But now, he’s telling me something about waiting for two years. It’s not that I don’t believe him, but I’m sure that until the last moment, he certainly won’t be in a hurry."
However, since the two of them had agreed on the time, even if Pei Yang doesn’t look for it, Wang Cuilan wouldn’t be able to say much in the next two years.
But Wang Cuilan was also open-minded about it, as she spoke she laughed.
"It’s still rewarding because even if he’s not in a hurry in the next two years, after that, he won’t be able to give me any more excuses."
Jiang Ran knew that Wang Cuilan was willing to set this deadline with Pei Yang precisely because of this point.
Jiang Ran smiled as she looked at Wang Cuilan.
She had only heard of such things before, but now she witnessed it firsthand.
Even between mother and son, when dealing with some issues, negotiations are necessary.
Evidently, both Wang Cuilan and Pei Yang got what they wanted in this negotiation.
After wrapping up this matter, Wang Cuilan remembered to ask Jiang Ran.
"Ranran, how are things going?"
Knowing Wang Cuilan was asking about the recruitment issue, Jiang Ran updated her on the progress.
When she heard Jiang Ran say they hired seven people this time, Wang Cuilan’s eyes squinted into a smile.
"Good, good, good! This is a good thing."
Wang Cuilan’s thoughts actually aligned with Pei Huai’s.
Their family wasn’t lacking money now, and Jiang Ran needed it even less.
Although the salary offered was quite high, seven people’s combined salary each month was also a significant amount.
But what could be more important than Jiang Ran getting some rest?
As long as Jiang Ran could rest well, even if it meant hiring a few more people, even if Cuilan had to pay for it, she would be more than willing.
Of course, Jiang Ran knew Wang Cuilan’s thoughts.
There was no way any of this money would come from Wang Cuilan.
While they were talking, four little cats came running out of the small villa.
Now, they couldn’t be called little kittens anymore.
Because a few months had passed, their diet was particularly good, and since there were no mice in the house, all they did was eat and sleep, sleep and eat every day, how could they not get chubby?
Now each one was plump, with coats glossy and sleek to the touch.
They weren’t afraid of anyone in the family in the slightest.
After they came over, they first meowed a bit, then each chose a target and jumped onto their lap.
Jiang Ran was more popular; two kittens jumped onto her lap.
Jiang Ran loved cats very much; seeing them made her feel overwhelmed with joy.
Petting the cats when she’s happy makes her even happier.
When she’s not happy, petting the cats would make her happy.
The kittens also thoroughly enjoyed the affection, and soon they were purring comfortably.
