Reborn in the Eighties as a Housewife with a Space

Chapter 1677: Chapter 1671: Preparing to Open a New Area

“Miss, you never mentioned this before. You only said you wanted to collaborate with the cousin.” Rain had truly never heard Nangong Beiying say she wanted to open an additional section for a children’s play area.

“This is a sudden idea of mine, not something I previously thought of.” Nangong Beiying came up with this because she is now pregnant. She felt that for a mother to work and take care of a child simultaneously is impossible, as many companies are not enlightened enough to allow mothers to bring their children to work. She thought, if it were her, what would she do?

After much thought, she decided she could be the one to take the lead and set an example.

After all, in her past life, she witnessed many women struggling to do anything while taking care of their children. In front of men, they seemed like grandchildren, which made her uncomfortable. Now that she has the means, she wants to break this traditional mindset.

Why should only men work outside and not care about anything, while women have to stay at home, caring for children, doing housework, and serving the elderly?

“Are you serious about doing this?” Qin Xue thought for a moment before asking Nangong Beiying.

“Yes, you know how life is for women after giving birth. Why should women live so begrudgingly? It’s because they don’t have a place that accepts them. So, we’ll create a place that accepts them. Of course, we won’t accept just anyone; we have standards. If someone’s character is bad, I won’t take them even if they don’t ask for money. What do you think?” Nangong Beiying looked at Qin Xue.

“I certainly don’t have a problem with it. I’ve thought about this issue, too, but there are many detailed considerations that need to be addressed before proceeding, so I never mentioned it to you.” Qin Xue, as a modern woman, certainly couldn’t bear to see women live so humbly.

In the future, there are micro-businesses and e-commerce, allowing mothers to work while taking care of their children. But before these existed, how many women had no way out? Even with these, many mothers still have to ask their husbands for living expenses at home, and sometimes they argue over spending an extra US$ 1.

In men’s hearts, they think that women staying home taking care of children is a very easy job, because it’s just looking after a child.

But they don’t know that a woman’s first task after waking is to feed the child, and once the child is settled, to make breakfast for her husband. Only then does she have time for a bite herself. Sometimes, if the baby cries, she has to set her food aside to comfort the child, while the husband, who has finished eating, sits playing on his phone, not bothering to help the mom so she can have a bite to eat.

Looking at the man like this, the woman feels helpless and can only eat while soothing the child. After eating, she has to clean the table, then once the husband goes to work, it’s house cleaning, and soon it’s lunchtime. When the meal is ready, it’s time to soothe the child to sleep first, and if she eats at all, it’s often leftover and cold food.

Those days are considered good; in some families, everything is eaten up, with not even a bit of soup left.

How does a mother feel in her heart then? Only those who have been mothers know. If there’s someone in the family who understands how hard it is for moms, they would lend a helping hand for a hot meal. Otherwise, a mom has to endure her hardships silently.
