As night fell, Xue Ling drove home from the investment company.
I was thinking about how to allocate the property to several children along the way. It was not until I arrived at the doorstep that I realized that she forgot that today was her mother-in-law’s birthday!
When she went out in the morning, Cheng Tianyuan reminded her that several children were at home and that they would have fun today. The dinner in the kitchen had already prepared a big meal.
Not only that, he invited Xue Zhilan and his family, Xiaohuzi and his family of three, as well as Achun sister and his son, to invite them to Xinyuan for a birthday party.
The old man is old and most afraid of loneliness is loneliness, and he wishes that his family can be lively every day.
They never liked to mention birthdays before, and they never thought of holding a banquet.
But the past two years have been different. Every time the elderly have a birthday, the family will be lively and the elderly are very happy and no longer refuse.
Xue Ling originally planned to stay at home all day, but Xiao Liao called her and said that the total asset summary had been liquidated and asked her to go there quickly.
After taking a nap, she hurried over. When she got busy, she forgot about time. She didn't say goodbye to Xiao Liao and go home until the company's employees got off work.
When I arrived at the door of my house, I realized that she forgot to buy a gift for the old man!
If you give a red envelope, the old man is not short of money and there is no need to spend money. To her, it is just a number and has no real meaning.
She thought for a while, turned the front of the car and drove out of the main road.
A while ago, several old people discussed buying a fully automatic massage machine, but afterwards, they didn't buy it.
Thinking that there should be a store selling it in Ronghua Mall, she planned to buy one.
In addition, if my mother-in-law likes gold, it is better to buy an extra gold bracelet...
While she was thinking secretly, she suddenly saw a familiar figure waving to her by the road!
Xue Ling was stunned and hurriedly drove the car to the sidewalk and parked it on the inside of the road.
"Afang? Why are you here?"
Cheng Tianfang was dressed dignified and generously, with short hair cut and light makeup, holding a small box in her hand, and hurriedly rushed towards her.
"Sister-in-law, I waved to you just now, but you didn't expect you to see it! I was about to walk forward, but I didn't expect you to drive back! Have you forgotten something?"
Xue Ling and Cheng Tianfang have been in touch. Not only that, she also asked Ranran and Yangyang to add their aunt's WeChat and asked them to send a voice message to their aunt when they have time on holidays.
Cheng Tianfang has been living alone over the years. He originally lived in the dormitory of the TV station, but later saved a lot of money, so he simply bought a house in the same community as Xue Heng and his daughter.
Xue Han has grown up and knows that his parents have long been separated and divorced.
She lives with her father from Monday to Friday and with her mother on weekends.
Perhaps it is because children who grew up in single families are more mature than their peers. Fortunately, Grandpa Xue Zhilan and grandma live with them, so the child is not lonely and has a cheerful personality.
Cheng Tianfang has been committed to developing his career over the years and is now the deputy director of the TV station's logistics department. His salary is getting higher and higher every year, and his status in the TV station is also quite high.
The income is stable, and the rent collection of the two shops that Xue Ling gave her before has been stable and the rent is also high, so Cheng Tianfang's life is very prosperous.
Xue Ling smiled and explained: "I forgot to buy gifts for my mother and was planning to buy them at the mall. I was so busy this afternoon that I forgot about it!"
"So that's how it is." Cheng Tianfang said warmly: "You and my brother are both dedicated and filial to the elderly. My mother must be fine.
Xue Ling looked at the gift box in her hand and asked, "Who gave it to the old lady?"
"Yes." Cheng Tianfang smiled: "Sister-in-law, I still have to ask you."
Xue Ling took it and asked, "Do you want to follow me in?"
"No." Cheng Tianfang shook his head sadly: "I won't go in... so as not to make my mother unhappy. Today is her birthday. Let her celebrate her birthday happily, don't let me disturb my mood."
A few years ago, she gave gifts to the elderly. Whether it was her daughter or Ranran's brothers, the elderly did not accept any gifts, and there was even a precedent for throwing away the trash can.
In the past two years, Cheng Tianfang has asked Xue Ling for help and asked her to hand it over.
Maybe it was because the old man didn't hate his daughter so much, or maybe he gave his daughter-in-law a face, so he accepted it.
Xue Ling didn't force her and asked with a smile: "How are you doing recently?"
"It's pretty good." Cheng Tianfang said warmly: "Sister-in-law, do you know? Master Xue Cong has retired."
"Retired?!" Xue Ling asked with a smile: "Why is it so fast? Why doesn't Sister Cong say it? We don't know at all!"
Cheng Tianfang smiled and explained: "Her retirement age has arrived, and she has retired. Her position was taken over by her junior half a year ago and was successfully handed over a few days ago. She may be too busy and she has to tell you again and again."
Xue Ling nodded: "I am also semi-retired and finally have time. I will ask her to come to her house for tea tomorrow and have a good chat."
Cheng Tianfang pursed her lips and smiled: "She may not have much time yet. Her daughter has been reluctant to get married, which makes her so anxious that she is out of her way. She said that after she retires, she will go to the blind date and marriage center every day, and hurried to find a marriage partner for her daughter."
After hearing this, Xue Ling shook his head and smiled bitterly.
"She has been busy with this matter for many years, and she can't complete it every year, and she perseveres every year. Her unremitting efforts really touched me~"
Xue Cong's daughter was already quite old when she returned to China after school, but she looked very much like her father and mother. She was full of thoughts on developing her career, and she didn't bother to fall in love, and she had no time to fall in love.
The couple had only one daughter, and they wanted her to get married soon. But she repeatedly pushed her back and forth and refused to find a partner to get married.
Xue Cong found many promising young people to introduce to her, but unfortunately she didn't even look down on her.
Not only did the mother help find it, but her father also helped find it, but none of her likes and refused them all.
After looking for more, my daughter became annoyed. She has always been independent and advocates freedom, so she simply moved out.
She has a very high income, has a very strong work ability, has an excellent appearance, and has a first-class family background.
Maybe it was because it was so good that many men were discouraged and did not dare to go forward and pursue it.
In addition, the daughter is more arrogant and arrogant, and most men do not like women who are too strong and arrogant, so there are very few people who pursue her.
She was also happy to be idle, devoted herself to her career, and even threatened to her parents that she would be single for the rest of her life.
Sister Xue Cong has outstanding abilities and has a good harvest in both career and family, but she just can’t do anything to her daughter. The elderly couple are very worried about these years.
Cheng Tianfang smiled and said warmly: "We have advised her long ago. Maybe her daughter's marriage still needs to wait."
"What about you?" Xue Ling frowned and asked, "Afang, do you still have to wait for your marriage? When you meet a suitable one, just look for a companion."
Cheng Tianfang's eyes dimmed and she smiled awkwardly.
"I... haven't thought so much for the time being."
