That night, Cheng Tianyuan and Xue Ling took a rest early.
Xiao Ranran had not seen her grandparents for a long time, and the old man was reluctant to let him sleep with his parents, so he carried him to the next door.
Xue Ling felt relaxed and entrusted the little one to them, took a bath in a hurry, lay down and fell asleep.
Cheng Tianyuan was also tired after driving and catching a plane all the way, so he lay down and fell asleep.
They slept soundly, but Ahu's house not far away kept the lights on all night.
Early the next morning, Chen Min came yawning.
Cheng Tianyuan was making porridge in the kitchen. He opened the door and saw him. Seeing that his eyes were obviously blue and blurred, he couldn't help but ask: "You didn't sleep last night? Is there no place for you to sleep at Ahu's house?"
Chen Min smiled bitterly: "There's a lot of space... Brother Hu couldn't sleep, so he took me to drink beer. He got drunk after five o'clock, so I helped him to bed and took care of him until now. When my aunt woke up, I asked her to take care of him.
I’ll come find you later.”
Cheng Tianyuan pointed to the guest room and explained: "There is a bed and quilt inside. Go in and have a sleep."
"No need." Chen Min's eyes flashed slightly, but he stopped talking.
Cheng Tianyuan wiped his hands and said: "Speak directly if you have something to say. We have known each other for so many years, and there is nothing we can't say openly."
Chen Min said "Oh..." and finally said it.
"Brother Hu thought about it most of the night last night and decided not to call the police."
Cheng Tianyuan raised his eyebrows unexpectedly and then frowned.
"What is he doing? He clearly agreed yesterday!"
Chen Min explained with a wry smile: "He was deeply in love with Mo Lili, thinking that after all, they would be a couple... If the police were called, she might be arrested or even go to jail. Brother Hu said that he didn't want her to suffer. After all, everyone
In a love affair, even if she was all fake, he had actually given her feelings... He couldn't do it."
Cheng Tianyuan fell silent.
Ahu seems to be a carefree person, but he is actually very emotional.
He was truly committed to this relationship, and he was committed wholeheartedly. He still loved that Mo Lili deeply, and did not want her to be arrested or go to jail.
Chen Min continued: "Brother Hu said that if the house is gone, he still has a place to live in. If the money is gone, he can still make it back with his own hands. He said that these are not problems. He can let him dig deep with his own hands.
He really can't do it if the woman he loves is sent to jail. He has given his love and can't get it back."
"Stop talking." Cheng Tianyuan said in a deep voice: "This is his business. If he doesn't want to call the police, then let him."
Chen Min lowered his voice: "Good people will be rewarded with good things, and bad people will be rewarded with bad things. Mo Lili's family is such a bastard, God will not just watch them cheat and kidnap all day long."
Cheng Tianyuan walked into the kitchen to make noodles and said, "No more talking, I want to make buns and fried dough sticks. Come and help!"
Chen Min was a little sleepy, but he didn't sleep all night last night and was really hungry.
"Okay, I'll help you make it. After I'm full, I'll go accompany Brother Hu."
The two chatted quietly while making steamed buns, and the remaining dough was made into fried dough sticks.
Chen Min saw him frying a fried dough stick and curiously asked: "Why do you do this?"
Cheng Tianyuan explained: "I saw someone in the imperial capital using this method to fry fried dough sticks. The rolled dough looked very nice, so I gave it a try and found that it was not difficult at all."
Chen Min blew it and started chewing it.
"Aren't they all fried dough sticks?! It just tastes delicious!"
Cheng Tianyuan smiled and explained: "We are all real people, so we only like to do real things. However, life cannot remain the same. There must be something new and a change, otherwise it will become boring and boring in the long run. You
, it’s time to make some changes in your life.”
Chen Min heard the hint in his words and hesitated: "I...I can't do it yet. My mother just passed away. Let's think about it in a year!"
He also wanted to find a partner, but unfortunately he had no money before and no girl liked him.
Now his family is financially better off, but when he saw what happened to his cousin Ahu, he was scared to death and couldn't even think about it.
Brother Hu is smart and capable, with a pair of bright eyes, he can even let a girl deceive him, let alone his stupid self!
Cheng Tianyuan was hard-pressed to say anything, and said: "The New Year has passed and you are almost thirty. Take good care of yourself! Major events in life are always unavoidable. There are still more good people than bad people in this world."
"Hmm..." Chen Min thought thoughtfully and continued to chew on the fried dough sticks.
Cheng Tianyuan changed the topic and talked about the store opening plan of "Caile de Coral".
"When you're done eating, go and rest. My dad and I will go over to clean up and prepare to open the store tomorrow."
Chen Min reminded: "Don't forget to prepare a bunch of firecrackers. It's a good idea to have a prosperous firecrackers."
"Okay." Cheng Tianyuan couldn't help but ask: "I asked you to inquire about recruiting an additional female worker. Do you have any clues?"
"Yes." Chen Min explained: "Alan's sister who used to work in the nursery heard about the good treatment here, so she resigned there and planned to come to the store to help."
"How is he? How old is he? Is he reliable?" Cheng Tianyuan asked, "Have you met him before?"
Chen Min replied: "I've seen him before. He's a bit shy, but he looks very honest and settled. He's about 20 years old, similar to Alan."
Cheng Tianyuan was a little disgusted and said: "Shopping guides must be enthusiastic and talkative. If they are too shy, then reject them."
"No!" Chen Min explained: "She spoke very fluently to Alan. Alan said that she worked very well in the nursery, but her boss was too stingy and she disliked the low salary, so she wanted to change her job."
Cheng Tianyuan said: "Let Alan take her there tomorrow and try it out for three days. If it works, let her stay. If it doesn't work, give her twenty yuan and let her find another job."
"Hey!" Chen Min nodded in agreement.
The two of them chatted and had breakfast.
Afterwards, Chen Min went to Ahu's house to catch up on his sleep.
Cheng Muhai smoked a cigarette and walked in.
"Ayuan, have you cooked? Your mother has already cooked over there."
Cheng Tianyuan was a little surprised and couldn't help but ask: "You guys cooked in the kitchen next door? When did it start?"
"After the New Year." Cheng Muhai took a puff of cigarette and exhaled faintly: "Now A Fang has to get up early to go to school, so it's better to grab something to eat over there and don't come here to disturb you."
Cheng Tianyuan nodded lightly: "It's up to you. Did A Fang bring food to school?"
"I brought it." Cheng Muhai replied: "The school has a large kitchen, which is responsible for steaming and heating things. Your mother prepared two aluminum lunch boxes for her, one for rice and one for vegetables. It's quite rich!"
Cheng Tianyuan said: "Let's have dinner here together. We have to go to work, and Ling Ling is also busy. Mom takes care of Xiao Ranran here, so it is convenient to cook here."
"Yeah." Cheng Muhai nodded, "I think so too. As a family, we can do whatever is convenient for us, and don't worry too much."
Then, the old man asked about Ahu's situation.
"There were so many people last night that I couldn't ask too carefully."
Cheng Tianyuan explained briefly and whispered: "I wanted to persuade him to call the police, but in the end he didn't want to, so I didn't plan to persuade him."
The old man sighed: "The young man is a good person, but he has not met a good marriage. What a pity! What a pity!"
Later, Cheng Tianyuan took his old father to the development zone and actively prepared to open a store.
