Guo Ying had been waiting at Jingtong Baby Store in Jicheng Xinyuan Community until everyone had packed up and was getting ready to get off work. It was already past nine o'clock in the evening and she had sent away the last wave of customers. Guo Ying said: "Let's hurry up and finish cleaning."
Regarding the hygiene of the store, I’ll treat everyone to dinner later.”
Guo Ying took the initiative to invite everyone in the store to have dinner at a nearby fried chicken restaurant. Everyone was very considerate and went there. She had several bottles of red wine in the car, but these colleagues didn't drink much at night, so they finally left
One bottle, one drink per person for those who don’t drive.
Zhou Yanchun's daughter Zhou Keyi also came over.
She came directly from the elementary school opposite to find her mother after school. Zhou Yanchun was busy at the time, so Zhou Keyi obediently went to the small office inside to do her homework on the table without crying or making any fuss.
Guo Ying saw all this. She felt that the little girl was too sensible. How did she develop these self-discipline habits?
"Could it be that the genes of the boss's family are so excellent and powerful?" Such a thought suddenly came to Guo Ying's head.
…
Xia Zekai didn't know that someone was slandering him.
He stayed in the company until after three o'clock in the afternoon, and he left directly before the subordinates gave him any feedback.
His wife's company has just started, and the office space has not been renovated yet. It is temporarily rented for a month, and there are a lot of messy chores.
He understood his wife and recently started taking Yatou and Tongtong to and from school.
At around six o'clock in the afternoon, Xia Zekai received a call from Zhang San. Zhang San said on the phone that the sales of dried fruits in the direct-operated store on the first day were not bad, but they were not as good as those of Rongdou and Pocky.
The chocolate bar biscuits started off with a bang.
"Okay, Manager Zhang, please tell all branches to keep going. There's no rush." After Xia Zekai heard the news, he knew what was going on.
Relatively speaking, this is the best news. Without any publicity in the early stage, it is unrealistic to expect a new product to become a hit and be sold out after it is launched.
Even so, he was very happy in his heart.
So when Luo Xiyun came back, she saw him wearing a checkered apron and cooking, but there was a smile on his face, which made Luo Xiyun feel incredible.
"Zekai, did something good happen to you? You are smiling so happily. Please tell me quickly." Luo Xiyun asked him proactively.
"Did any of your investments make money again?" she asked.
Xia Zekai put down the soup bowl in his hand and turned to look at her: "Nonsense, I've made all the money in the world."
At this point, he paused for a while before adding: "The dried fruits that our company has just developed are on the market for the first time today, and they are selling well."
"You started selling it so soon? I remember you told me before that it wouldn't be launched until April?" Luo Xiyun was surprised and asked him.
Xia Zekai said proudly: "The employees below are great, everyone works hard, and the equipment was modified very quickly. The finished product was produced a week earlier than expected."
Luo Xiyun was particularly curious and asked him: "How are the sales?"
"The final results haven't come out yet, but Manager Zhang from the sales department just called me and said that the current sales situation is good," he said.
"This is a good thing!" Luo Xiyun went to wash his hands and asked, "Has the meal been finished? If so, let's have a drink to celebrate. I'm so hungry."
"I'll wait for you to come back for dinner." Xia Zekai said.
Hearing what he said, Luo Xiyun yelled: "Girl, Tongtong, come over and eat quickly, or you'll get beaten."
When the two little sisters heard that they were going to be beaten, they didn't care about the half-displayed castle model and hurried over.
"Mom, you are back."
"Thank you for your hard work, Mom!"
The two little sisters greeted each other sweetly.
After Luo Xiyun heard this, she felt much more comfortable and didn't feel so tired.
He asked them both: "Girl, Tongtong, did you two obey in school today?"
"Mom, I am obedient. The teacher even said he would give me a little red flower."
"I didn't, humph!" Tongtong said firmly, not caring at all.
What's so good about little red flowers is that you can only look at them, but you can't eat them, and they will rot when you pull them.
Xia Zekai pretended that he didn't hear it, and he was completely relieved now.
Everyone's talents are different, let them amplify their talents, Xia Zekai thought, he just watched them don't go astray.
"Hurry up and eat." Xia Zekai urged.
…
The next morning, Xia Zekai got up early as usual and took Tongtong to exercise for more than half an hour. Today was Saturday, and neither Yatou nor Tongtong went to school, so he had no intention of going to the company again.
After the father and daughter finished breakfast together, they slowly walked back with the two breakfasts.
Xia Zekai also said: "Tongtong, let's follow mom to her new company later, okay?"
"Dad, is it fun there? Are there any toys?" Tongtong showed the side that a child should have.
Xia Zekai shook his head: "That's where my mother works. There are no toys."
"Is there anything to eat?"
"There shouldn't be any snacks for you."
Hearing what his father said, Tongtong shook his head without even thinking: "There's nothing fun or delicious, so why should I go?"
When Xia Zekai heard the second child say this, he kindly reminded him: "Tongtong, don't say that in front of your mother, otherwise you will be beaten."
"I don't believe it!" Tongtong innocently held her father's hand and said jumping up and down.
She couldn't remember it without suffering a loss, so Xia Zekai stopped trying to persuade her.
When the father and daughter returned home, Luo Xiyun and the girl hadn't gotten up yet. It was a Saturday and she wanted to be lazy for a while.
"Daughter-in-law, get up quickly. Let's go to your company after dinner." Xia Zekai took Tongtong home and shouted as soon as he entered the door.
Who knew that Luo Xiyun would say: "We don't work on Saturday, what are you going to see?"
"You guys have two days off, you are so willful!" Xia Zekai couldn't help but complain about her.
Luo Xiyun said: "The formal office space has not been renovated yet, so I have temporarily rented a place to transition. I haven't bought office computer tools yet. I am thinking about buying them now. After the office renovation is completed next month, I will have to move back and forth."
The location and wiring are so troublesome, it’s better to do it all at once.”
"Nothing, what do you want me to do on Saturday and weekend?"
When Xia Zekai thought about it, there was nothing wrong with what he said, so he stopped thinking about it and said, "Then let's go out for a walk later."
Luo Xiyun has been very busy recently, and she hasn't gone shopping for some days. When she heard this suggestion, she happily said: "Okay, I was just thinking about buying some clothes."
…
On the way to the mall, sisters Yatou and Tongtong got together and muttered for a while, and then asked: "Mom, can you buy us a toy today?"
Luo Xiyun asked them both: "What toys do you want?"
"Well, I want a remote control racing car, and my sister wants it too." Tongtong said this, dragging her sister into the water.
The girl was quite loyal. She nodded and admitted: "I also want a remote control racing car."
"Is there anything else?" Luo Xiyun asked them both.
But neither sister thought about it, they just shook their heads.
Xia Zekai also said: "Daughter-in-law, neither of them can figure it out right now, so it's all in vain for you to ask."
Luo Xiyun thought that this was the case, and we would talk about it later when we arrived at the mall.
When Xia Zekai took the three of them shopping, at Qicheng Railway Station, Xia Zejiang dragged two suitcases and came out of the train station with Shen Jiayi.
"Jiayi, where should we go first?" Xia Zejiang asked her.
Shen Jiayi thought for a while, then looked at the two suitcases she was dragging, and said, "Let's just take a taxi back to my house and put down the two suitcases first, otherwise it will be too troublesome to drag them everywhere."
When Xia Zejiang heard what she said, he wanted to roll his eyes. He also wanted to ask: "You still have the nerve to say that these are not all your clothes."
Shen Jiayi refuted him confidently: "It's all my fault for you to say this. Xia Zejiang, please tell me with your conscience, did you give me the clothes in these two suitcases?"
bought?"
"De Xing, I made a mistake buying you clothes!" Xia Zejiang didn't want to discuss this with her.
A taxi happened to come over, and Xia Zejiang raised his hand to greet him. He put the two suitcases in the trunk of the taxi, and then got into the back seat with Shen Jiayi. After sitting down, he said: "Master, Zhoucheng Construction
Community.”
The taxi driver was stunned for a moment. He didn't expect that he would encounter a big job today: "Okay, take your seats."
The taxi driver is indeed a professional. At this point, it would take more than an hour for a normal person to drive to Zhoucheng to build a community, but the taxi driver arrived at the place in less than an hour.
"Master, you drive so fast!" Xia Zejiang thought about the taxi driver who was swerving in the traffic just now, constantly accelerating, and sometimes when the traffic light counted down for two or three seconds, it almost turned yellow.
He stepped on the accelerator and rushed over.
The taxi driver smiled "haha" and didn't care.
Many people have talked about this problem, but they don't understand. If you want to make money, you have to race against time. Being faster by one minute means that you can get the next job as soon as possible.
As long as you ensure safety and don't violate any rules, that's fine.
Today is Saturday, the sun is not bad. There are many elderly men and women in the construction community who come out to bask in the sun, and some people who are not working gather together to chat.
Seeing Xia Zejiang and Shen Jiayi, no one would scratch them this time.
Everyone knew that the daughter of Shen Qishan's family had found a son-in-law who was rich and good-tempered. He drank and smoked well and bought a lot of gold and silver jewelry for Shen Qishan and Tang Wanqiu. They could only envy him.
If you nag a few words too much, others will think you are jealous, and no one will discuss the matter again and again.
Seeing them again, these old men and women kept asking them when they would get married.
After hearing this, Shen Jiayi said calmly and generously: "Auntie, we have just taken wedding photos and will be getting married in June. You will have to come and have a wedding banquet then."
"Hey, Jiayi, don't worry, my aunt has prepared a red envelope for you." said a middle-aged woman in her 40s with a kind face in the crowd.
She also made a joke: "You'd better have children as soon as you get married. I've even prepared red envelopes for the children."
Hearing what she said, several people in the crowd also expressed their opinions. Shen Jiayi was as happy as a child after hearing this.
"Auntie, we have also brought a lot of luggage. It's not convenient, so let's go up first." Shen Jiayi said.
Xia Zejiang pushed the lever in behind and followed Shen Jiayi upstairs with two suitcases.
Shen Qishan was not at home, and Tang Wanqiu was alone at home, feeling bored and watching TV.
When she heard the knock on the door, she subconsciously asked: "Who is it?"
"Mom, it's me, please open the door quickly." Shen Jiayi shouted.
This made Tang Wanqiu very confused. It wasn't time for vacation yet.
After thinking about it, she still came over and opened the door wearing slippers.
When she saw Xia Zejiang following behind, she was even happier: "Zejiang is here too, you two come in quickly."
"Mom, we came back here to tell you that we have just finished taking wedding photos and are preparing to get married after graduation in June." Shen Jiayi came up and said.
Xia Zejiang also said: "Auntie, can you take a look?"
Tang Wanqiu laughed and scolded him: "You kid, you call mom when you drink too much, and aunt when you wake up..."
Hearing what she said, Xia Zejiang felt a little embarrassed on the spot. After he and his father-in-law-to-be Shen Qishan drank too much, they called themselves brothers. This was something unbecoming of a son.
Shen Jiayi was so happy when she heard her mother say this.
"Mom, then you have to change the lipstick red envelope." Shen Jiayi made up for it.
Tang Wanqiu also said of her: "I have raised you for so many years, and your elbows have turned outwards."
After complaining, Tang Wanqiu asked them: "You two haven't eaten yet, I'm going to cook you some food."
As she was almost reaching the kitchen, she remembered something again and said, "I'll call your dad and ask him to come back early."
"Mom, my dad is still working today. Doesn't he have Saturdays and weekends off?" Shen Jiayi asked her.
Tang Wanqiu didn't want to talk about her daughter anymore, but she still said: "Your dad used to not work on Saturdays and weekends, but you were at home. He wanted to spend more time with you. Now that you go to school, he works overtime. You can also earn some overtime pay.”
"..." This sentence made Shen Jiayi panic, and it turned out that the truth was like this.
While Tang Wanqiu was nagging, she called Shen Qishan and told him the news about the return of her daughter and 'prospective son-in-law'.
Shen Qishan said directly: "You cook first, I will go back right now, and then I will go to the east gate to buy some cooked food and take it back."
"Well, take your time on the road and don't be in a hurry." Tang Wanqiu muttered.
Xia Zejiang and Shen Jiayi couldn't help, so Shen Jiayi said: "Zejiang, help me take these two boxes of things to the bedroom first, and I will put away the clothes."
"Okay!" Xia Zejiang quickly carried the suitcase to her bedroom.
He has stayed in this room twice. This time, he saw that the room was still very clean. The bed was also covered with a thin plastic film such as stretch film. This was Tang Wanqiu's way of preventing dust from falling on the bed. Covered.
She didn't care about these details before, but after returning this time, Shen Jiayi noticed that her parents had been loving her silently in their own way, in the details that she hadn't noticed.
