Mother Xue quickly took it and looked back and forth twice.
"Well... if your father refuses, I will ask him to give me part of the funds to buy it. It is his business to invest in so many branches. I want to invest in these, but I will not do the same as him."
Xue Ling couldn't help but ask: "Dad has invested in a new factory again? It shouldn't be confirmed yet, right?"
"It's not that fast yet." Xue's mother muttered: "But Xiao Heng has been urging him every day to build more branches. He also said that if he wants to do foreign trade business, he needs to open more factories, otherwise he won't be able to make so many goods.
.”
Xue Ling was silent for a moment and nodded.
"Xiao Heng's words are not unreasonable, but I still stick to my concept - diversified development and multi-directional investment, so that the ability to bear risks will be stronger."
Mother Xue hummed: "I'll do it when I get back. It doesn't matter what your dad does. Anyway, I have half of the family's money. Whatever I want to invest in or buy, he has to support it."
"Domineering!" Xue Ling smiled and gave her a thumbs up, "She is indeed my mother!"
"Go!" Xue's mother laughed and scolded: "I did it to your dad. You can't learn randomly, and you have to be nice to Ayuan. He is more introverted and a child from the countryside. If you are too strong, maybe he will...
That makes you feel inferior."
"I understand, I understand." Xue Ling nodded hurriedly, "Brother Yuan is different from dad. Don't worry, you can control dad, and I can control brother Yuan. The methods are different, but the effect is the same. This is our family
I will carry forward the beautiful and fine traditions of China."
Mother Xue laughed softly.
"Your dad is very considerate and respects me. It was not easy for us to get together back then, and my career with him was also full of setbacks, so he always felt guilty towards me. Every couple has a different way of getting along.
It's different. You should take good care of it. After all, family harmony is the most important thing.
Xue Ling was very curious after hearing this, and asked with a smile: "Mom, it was not easy for you and us to get together back then? What does this mean? Why? Aren't you free to fall in love?"
"Didn't your dad tell you?" Xue's mother whispered: "I and he... almost... almost failed, and we even secretly planned to elope."
Oh! There is such a section!
Xue Ling suddenly became energetic and hugged her arm.
"Dad, he didn't say anything! Tell me quickly! Hurry up!"
Mother Xue squinted her eyes and let out a long breath.
"It's been a long time since I thought about it! At that time, the economy was very sluggish and everything was depressed. Your grandparents were both literati. Your grandpa taught and your grandma embroidered and made clothes for you. Life was pretty good. Your father's family was living well at that time.
Their lives were not very good. Their ancestors were aristocrats in the imperial capital. Although they were all highly intellectuals, and many of them had even studied abroad, their status was too high at that time. Ordinary workers and peasants were unwilling to marry them for fear of getting into big trouble.
.”
Regarding this period of history, Xue Ling also heard his father talk about it.
"So, both grandpa and grandma are opposed to you marrying my dad, right?"
"At first, I opposed it desperately." Xue's mother sighed in a low voice: "Your father had already graduated from college at that time, and he was pretty good-looking. Unfortunately, because of his status, many female classmates did not dare to marry him. When I met him, I didn't
I didn’t know much, but after I got closer to him and my heart fell in love, he told me and asked me to think about it carefully. I was only seventeen or eighteen years old at the time, in my youthful stage, and I fell in love with her, so I refused to let go."
"Then what?" Xue Ling asked funnyly.
Xue's mother lowered her face and explained: "Then I told my family that I would not marry him except him. Your grandpa is also an authentic Imperial Capital native, and he also knows the history of the Xue family. He respects and likes the Xue family's talent.
Your father, but he didn’t want his daughter to marry and be judged by others, and he was also afraid of getting into trouble, so he had to reluctantly refuse."
"Sigh... I don't know if I was carried away by love at the time. I was as stubborn as a cow. I refused to persuade you no matter how hard I tried. Unless your dad refused to marry me, I would elope with him! Your dad was very touched.
, but he didn’t dare to come to my house to ask for marriage. Instead, he went to work as a technician in a factory and didn’t contact me for a while.”
"I was depressed all the time. I found out where he worked, so I ran to block him at the intersection in the evening. He couldn't avoid me, and told me with red eyes that he asked me to wait for him, saying that when he made money, his family would be stable.
Come and marry me."
"At that time, I thought about him crazily and immediately agreed, telling him to come and marry me. If he dared to break his promise and betray me, I would hate him forever. He swore that he would not dare."
"At that time, girls were getting married early, some as early as fifteen or sixteen years old. Your grandfather was worried that I still missed your dad, so he secretly found someone to find someone to marry me, thinking that this way I would forget your dad. I was angry
Very well, just tell them harshly that if you dare to force me to marry, I will immediately run away to your father and never recognize them again."
"Your grandpa and grandma were frightened. They are both timid people. They were so scared that they couldn't sleep well for several days and nights. They were always wary of me running out. In the end, your grandpa compromised and said that he would never let me go if I didn't want to.
He won't force me. He sighed and said that he still likes your father very much."
"At that time...I cried at that time. I hugged your grandpa and grandma and laughed and cried. Later, while I was learning embroidery from your grandma, I helped your grandpa teach some children and slowly waited for your dad. After all, the Xue family
It is a big family with very wide connections. When the two elders of the family were rehabilitated, the haze of the entire Xue family was swept away, and all the children were lifted out of the quagmire. Your father quickly took out the salary he had saved for half a year.
I bought a gift and came to my house to propose marriage."
After hearing this, Xue Ling couldn't help but let out a long "Wow".
"Mom, it turns out that the relationship between you and my father has been so bumpy! It's not easy!"
Mother Xue was stuck in memories and smiled softly.
"I didn't think so at the time, but looking back now, it is indeed... quite difficult. The main reason is that I am very persistent, your dad is also persistent, and your grandpa and grandma approve of your dad. Without any of them, we can't leave.
Come together."
Xue Ling nodded lightly, "It's indeed not easy."
Mother Xue added: "Because of this, your father is deeply grateful to me and my natal family. A few years ago, your grandpa was sick, and he spent money and effort to take care of the elderly himself until the last moment. Last year, your grandma
When they died, your two uncles had very little money. It was your father who shouldered all the expenses and found a good cemetery for your grandparents so that they could be buried together. He did a good job in all these things.
"
"So, my dad not only loves you, but also respects your family." Xue Ling gestured with a thumbs up.
Mother Xue just laughed and said nothing more.
At this time, the sound of mother-in-law Liu Ying's footsteps coming back from shopping for groceries was heard outside.
Xue's mother handed Xiao Ranran to Xue Ling and said, "I'm going to pick up Aying. She said she wanted to buy rice, which is probably a bit heavy. I have to go and greet her."
"Okay." Xue Ling hugged the sleeping little guy, still a little excited in her heart, and couldn't help laughing: "Xiao Ranran, if grandpa and grandma didn't walk together, there wouldn't be your mother and me. If it weren't for me, there would be no mother or me.
