Chapter Seventy-One: The Disguise of Human Nature
It's like I've really gone back in time, and I feel like I'm suffering a little bit from what I'm doing, yes, that's how I feel.
Early in the morning, Zhang Dan began to get busy, making breakfast, helping her daughter organize her schoolbag, and then after breakfast, she took her daughter out.
Almost an hour later, Zhang Dan bought a lot of vegetables, and she was busy in the kitchen.
"Husband, I saw that a seafood stall in the vegetable market has opened, do you have any thoughts on this? Why don't you try it too? After all, the old customers are here. Zhang Dan was busy in the kitchen while chatting with me casually.
Today's Zhang Dan bought several kinds of seafood for the first time, and there are cooked food, and even a few bottles of good wine, among them, I saw a bottle of Guojiao.
Zhang Dan knew that I liked to drink this brand of wine, at least in the past, and I had never touched it since my business failed.
"It's so easy to do, we don't even have the capital, and I don't want to do seafood business anymore. I responded.
The annual rent of the vegetable market is more than 100,000 yuan, and all my belongings add up to 70,000 yuan, since I have decided to renovate the house for my parents in my hometown, then I will not use it.
No, do I have dignity?
I began to ask myself rhetorically.
"Husband, then what kind of work are you going to do after a complete recovery?" Zhang Dan continued to ask.
"It should be the old business, enter a company to do sales. I thought about it and responded.
"Uh-huh, sales are good. Zhang Dan nodded in agreement.
"By the way, aren't you supposed to go to work, why haven't you been there for the past two days?" I asked hurriedly.
"You forgot that I'm a sales manager, it's okay to take a two-day break and let the people below keep an eye on it. Zhang Dan said with a smile.
Hearing Zhang Dan say this, I nodded.
It was almost ten o'clock in the morning, and sure enough, the doorbell rang.
"My mom is here. Zhang Dan wiped his hands on his apron, and then hurriedly opened the door.
I sat on the sofa and watched Zhang Dan open the security door.
"Dad, Mom, brother and sister-in-law. Zhang Dan began to call people.
"Hahahaha, don't be so polite, Xiao Chen, is your body okay?"
"Yes, brother-in-law, are you okay? I've watched the news, you're so good, I'm so relieved!"
"Brother-in-law, this is the wine we bought for you. ”
Under the continuous sound of words, I looked at my father-in-law and mother-in-law, and then at Lin Qiang and my younger siblings.
My father-in-law is dressed up in an unprecedented way today, with a white shirt and black trousers, leather shoes Cheng Liang, and a white hair combed backwards, I don't know that I think it is an elderly entrepreneur, as for my mother-in-law, she is wearing a bright red dress with wavy curly hair.
In addition to his father-in-law and mother-in-law, Zhang Jun and his younger siblings are a couple's suit, carrying two bottles of national cellars, some ***, bird's nest, American ginseng, and children's snack gift bags.
"It's fine. I forced a smile and didn't get up from the couch.
The so-called don't hit the smiling person, since the mother's family came to apologize, no matter how I said it, it was also a guest, why should I quarrel and make the neighbors come to see the joke.
"Mom, look brother-in-law!" the younger sibling obviously sensed that I was a little cold, and she spoke softly.
The younger brother and sister are called Wang Xia, and when they married Lin Qiang, the bride price was not allowed, and the wedding car arrived home, and the cost of getting off the car was 5,008, for this matter, there were almost some situations in the wedding of Zhang Jun and Wang Xia, but fortunately I had some cash at that time, which resolved this embarrassment.
Time has passed, and I will never forget the scenes of the past.
"Husband!" Zhang Dan smiled awkwardly, and then looked at me.
At this moment, father-in-law and mother-in-law, Zhang Jun and Wang Xia all glanced at each other, and then Zhang Jun took the lead in speaking.
"Brother-in-law, I was wrong two days ago, I shouldn't have beaten you, I went back and thought about it, without your brother-in-law, how could I have my Zhang Jun today, today I just came to apologize, I hope brother-in-law you have a lot, don't care, or you will beat me!" Zhang Jun was straightforward, as if he had let go.
"What are you talking about, what can't you fight!" Wang Xia pouted and twisted Zhang Jun.
"Xiao Chen, Mom is talking a little more seriously, but it's not for this family, can you forgive Mom, it's not good to see it in the neighborhood. The mother-in-law looked embarrassed, and when she saw Zhang Jun's first example, she hurriedly followed along.
"Yes, Xiao Chen, it's all a family, let's all go in the past, don't we all hope to get better. The father-in-law also spoke.
Hearing the apology from my mother's family, I got up from the couch.
"Come in and sit. I spoke.
"Well, I knew my brother-in-law wouldn't care. Zhang Jun grinned, overjoyed.
"Mom, Dad, sit on the sofa too. Zhang Dan hurriedly greeted.
"Sister, I'll help you cook. Wang Xia hurriedly spoke.
"No need, how can I ask you to help. Zhang Dan said with a smile.
Soon, the mother's family sat down on the sofa in the living room and began to get up unceremoniously, snorting melon seeds, watching TV, and chatting.
"Brother-in-law, you pick up a fire extinguisher and beat the gangsters, you are really handsome, have you ever blown up the sky? Zhang Jun grinned, and after speaking, he didn't forget to push me on the shoulder, and those who didn't know thought that Zhang Jun and I were very accustomed brothers.
"Yes, Xiao Chen, it was so dangerous at that time, why were you so bold, what if this knife was a little deeper?"
"Didn't think about it that much. I replied briefly.
Hearing my words, my father-in-law nodded, and my mother-in-law looked at me intentionally or unintentionally, as if she was about to say something, but she still wanted to say something.
"Brother-in-law, you are now the big hero of our Binjiang, if you open a store, the business will definitely be booming, don't you plan to take advantage of this wave of heat to make seafood? Zhang Jun's words changed.
"Yes, brother-in-law, have you thought about it? If the business grows, we can also come to help. Wang Xia also said.
Hmph, I knew that there was no good thing not to come to the door, now that I have become a big hero, I am the most talked about in the neighborhood, if I open a seafood restaurant again, I know that it must be a lot of appeal.
But I know I won't do this anymore, I used to go out early and return late for this family, but now, I want my own life, why should I work hard to keep you fed and drunk?
"I don't plan to cook seafood anymore, and I don't have the money. I spoke.
"It's a shame. Wang Xia couldn't help but sigh.
"Brother-in-law, it's really a pity, with your current popularity and connections, as long as you do business and we upload it to the Internet, it will be an Internet celebrity store, and business will definitely be very good at that time. Zhang Jun spoke again.
"Do you want to invest?" I looked at Mr. and Mrs. Zhang, and then glanced at my father-in-law and mother-in-law.
When I said this, Zhang Jun's expression was a little stiff, and he scratched the back of his head: "Sister, brother-in-law, you also know me, I have repaid the loan over the years, how can I have any savings, you are doing a big business, we will run errands, how can I have any spare money to invest." ”
"Xiao Chen, you recuperate first, take your time in business, don't be in a hurry, don't be in a hurry. "My mother-in-law was busy playing round.
