Xue Ling held his arm and said warmly: "You are not young to begin with! It's just that you have always refused to admit your age."
"Damn girl!" Xue's father scolded with an angry smile: "It's already good that I don't rely on my old age! You still want me to recognize my old age?! What a beautiful idea!"
"Okay, you are Lao Jiang, you are hot enough." Xue Ling helped him walk to the office, saying at the same time: "Old Jiang can't stand the torment! Don't even think about it, you are almost sixty!"
Father Xue chuckled and said: "The sycamore tree is still very strong after decades! My old sycamore tree is not greedy, it will be enough if it can last for eighty years!"
His name is Xue Wu, and many people like to call him Lao Wutong, especially some old friends and family members, who almost always call him "Wutong".
"Where to stop!" Xue Ling shouted: "Now that living standards have improved, you can live for at least a few hundred years!"
Father Xue sat down and breathed a long sigh of relief.
"Sigh... What are you doing living for so long? Everyone is tired when they are alive. If you are lazy, people will think you are lazy. If you are greedy, people will think you are extravagant. If you speak softly, people will think you are lazy.
So easy to bully.”
Xue Ling knew that the old man was angry about what had just happened, so he could only advise: "It is an old saying that good people are bullied by others. You should not be too talkative sometimes, lest people think you are easy to bully."
She knew her father well, he would not get angry unless he had to.
He is a scholar and a child of a large family. He is very elegant in his work and conduct. Even after being a businessman for many years, he still cannot change his attitude.
Father Xue sighed and explained: "Some things are easy to discuss with each other, so there is no need to get too entangled. But some people think that if you speak softly, you must be in the wrong, and they push each other step by step, and push again and again - it's really too much.
!”
Xue Ling nodded and said: "You and mom have always been watching over at the main factory. You have brought out the workers and supervisors. Naturally, they will listen to you in everything. The branch factory here has been there since the beginning.
If you are not in charge, the measures have suddenly changed, and the work mode has also changed, so naturally they will not obey. Your boss must be strict with his attitude and not be soft-hearted."
In her view, if the boss hires you to work, you can do it if you can do it, and if you can't, you can leave. As long as the boss does not violate labor and other relevant laws, then the workers must cooperate as they should.
Father Xue smiled and whispered: "Your father and I are getting older, so I tend to be soft-hearted in everything I do and think about."
"When this period of work is over, several factories will stop working for a while." Xue Ling said: "You and mom will go south to Rongcheng with me, have a good rest, and help me take care of Xiao Ranran."
"Okay." Father Xue nodded, squinted and smiled: "I haven't seen Xiao Ranran for a long time... I really miss the little guy!"
Xue Ling explained: "Last time I came to the Imperial Capital, he was just a little guy in my arms. Now he can walk and talk. When you and mom meet him, he will be able to call you grandma and grandpa."
"Hahaha!" Father Xue smiled happily and said tiredly: "Your mother and I have been very busy these past few months and we really need a good rest."
At this time, the secretary came in with a large bowl of white porridge and a plate of pickled mustard.
Xue Ling took it and turned around and handed it to her father.
"Eat as little as possible. The more tired you are, the more you should eat. If you don't eat, where will the energy come from?"
Dad Xue's mood recovered and his appetite came back. He quickly ate a large bowl of porridge and nibbled on the mustard.
"It is better for the elderly to eat porridge in the morning and evening. It is easy to digest and comfortable to eat."
Xue Ling couldn't help but feel sad when she heard him say "old" all the time.
At this time, people are tired and their hearts are tired. The old man is a little unable to bear it. He always mentions words such as "I am old and can't do it anymore" in his words.
In her heart, her old father is like a mountain, a mountain that protects her from wind and rain and supports everything for the family.
She sniffed and pushed back the tears.
"You take a rest after eating, and I'll go to the work shed to have a look."
"Go." Father Xue said warmly.
My daughter has grown up and is able to take care of herself. She dares to go south to buy machines and travel all over the country alone.
These days, she walked around three factories alone. Fortunately, she came to help, so he, his wife and Xue Heng could relax more.
She handles things quickly and resolutely, very much like him back then.
With her help, I believe I can get through the current difficulties quickly.
Xue Ling checked the work shed and went to the dormitory again. She heard that there was a leak in the dormitory building, so she asked her secretary to hire someone to fix it immediately.
At noon that day, Xue Ling took Xue's father out to eat.
There were no big restaurants near the factory, so she drove her father directly to the city.
Winter came early in the imperial capital. It has just passed and the cold has already begun.
The father and daughter ordered hot pot and chatted while eating.
"Is everything ready at the Lingyun branch?" Father Xue asked.
"That's all." Xue Ling explained: "Tomorrow we will start catching up on the two orders from Nanfang Yuecheng."
Father Xue couldn't help but sigh: "In the foreign trade section, we are indeed too anxious."
"You just want to take advantage of it." Xue Ling had been exposed to foreign trade business and knew a lot of tricks. "It's just that the country currently has no relevant support measures. It's really not easy for you to explore on your own."
Dad Xue whispered: "It's better to persuade A Heng and wait for a while before talking."
Xue Ling smiled and gave him some cauliflower.
"At first he thought you were going to give up on this new market, and he was anxious and disappointed. Fortunately, you repeatedly emphasized that you were just taking it easy. I also analyzed the current situation for him, and said that taking it easy was just to let him prepare and wait in advance.
, it’s not about giving up, so he finally felt relieved.”
Father Xue smiled slightly and whispered: "A Heng, this boy is still a little young."
Having said this, he felt a little proud.
My daughter is younger than A Heng and has never been abroad. However, after being married to the south for more than two years, she gradually grew up, became thoughtful and decisive in doing things.
Xue Ling explained: "He used to study in school and had no social experience. He is very talented and confident, but he lacks experience and some exercise. Don't be afraid, this time he is also exercising! Give him
In a few more years, he will grow up quickly."
Father Xue nodded in agreement and said: "After all, he is a flower raised in a greenhouse. If he wants to withstand the wind and frost outside, he does need training and the baptism of setbacks."
The father and daughter chatted and talked about Cheng Tianyuan.
"A Yuan was born in a rural area in a difficult environment, so he is very hard-working. He is very calm in his work and treats people well. People like him will succeed sooner or later."
Xue Ling said with a smile: "In our Chengjia Village, he is already a successful person. Even in Rongcheng, he is considered a successful person. After all, he has opened two small shopping malls."
"Haha!" Father Xue said warmly: "You should teach him more so that he will not be satisfied with the status quo too quickly. With his potential, it is far more than just two shopping malls. He is still young and cannot be satisfied too easily."
"No, he won't." Xue Ling explained: "The first floor of the building in the middle of the first row of the properties I invested in will be turned into a shopping mall. I have reserved a large shopping mall for him there."
The first phase of "Wangjiang Garden" is almost full, and people will gradually move into the second and third phases. The shopping mall in the second phase will become a shopping paradise in the future.
If there are good things, she will naturally leave them to her dear husband.
Taking in all the stores outside the second phase and adding a large shopping mall is one of her future plans.
"That's good." Father Xue said, "It's close to home and easy to take care of."
