175. New Year's Storm
The time soon came to the first day of the new year, the new year began, we got up early to have breakfast, according to the usual practice, my mother stayed at home to be responsible for entertaining guests, and the rest of us were led by my father to visit relatives and friends' houses.
But before we could go out, there was a knock on the door, and the eldest sister smiled: "It must be your two little lovers who came to pay New Year's greetings, but they came early enough today!"
I also thought it was Cui Yingying or Xia Jiaer, these days they ran to me when they were fine, and they all put themselves into the role of girlfriends, and it was not embarrassing for the two to meet, I drove them out to play and had the courage to give them a left and right hug, not only did the two not object, but soon they regarded themselves as big wives and little wives, which made me completely unable to understand the thoughts of these little girls, but as a man, I am happy to see the two women get along harmoniously!
I went over and opened the door, and was surprised to find a large number of people standing outside, a bald head with a short and fat bright eyeball, it was actually Wang Bo who was far away in Xiangjiang who came to this small city where birds don't, and his wife Weng Juan, Jiang Min, Jiang Yong, etc. all came with their families.
Wang Bo arched his hand with a flattering smile and said, "Jiang Shao, I have a New Year's greeting for you!"
I hurriedly let them into the house, so many people make the small house seem very crowded, I am a little embarrassed, but they don't mind at all, have given my parents New Year's greetings and presented rich gifts, my parents asked the bald head is Wang Bo after the sincere fear, they have always thought that I followed Wang Bo to mix famous, to him is grateful, pull him a strong thanks, Wang Bo how to know that I did not explain the situation to the family, was suddenly scared sweaty, a hard wipe of cold sweat to look at my face, look very funny。
I looked at him with interest, and he didn't know what I meant, for fear that I would blame him, so he was ready to explain that the room was full of people who were eating with me, and that the real boss was me and not him.
I stopped him and said: "Brother Bo, in the past six months, I really want to thank you for your trust, so that I will be the east in the third year of junior high school, go to the Lianshui Hotel to set up a few tables, we will have a good gathering, and by the way, discuss the plan to make money in the coming year." ”
Wang Bo and my cousins were pleasantly surprised, the company was established less than half a year, I have helped everyone invest 5 times the principal, the so-called plan is not the big plan to pick up money, so everyone was busy and agreed, and left with a thousand thanks, which made my parents so shocked that their jaws almost dropped, this script is not right, shouldn't it be our family to thank them for their kindness, thanksgiving?
But they didn't have time to ask me why, because in the next few days, there was an endless stream of relatives and friends who came to pay New Year's greetings, some were more close to the Xia family, the Hu family, and the Long family, there were friends who usually don't come and go much but were quite familiar, and there were also guests who knew each other but rarely came and went.
Since I drove a BMW back, my family's social status in the circle of friends has undergone earth-shaking changes, everyone comes with a certain amount of flattery, far less calm and peaceful than before, and everyone with a certain purpose, some are coming to the enveloping feelings to facilitate future affairs, some are to bring girls to go on a blind date, for these two we are warmly welcome, regardless of how the girl looks, at least people are a piece of kindness, we are also warmly entertained, but some people come to the New Year's motive is not so simple, they are under the guise of New Year's greetings to borrow money。
I have the money, and it is very easy to come by, but I don't need to get used to the bad mistakes of these people, and I have won the name of the first gentleman of HKUST in the sponsorship club of the school, and I understand more that the hearts of people in this world are far from being as simple as I imagined.
There is a saying: Ascend Mien, fight Mi Hate. It means that if you give a little help, others will always remember your kindness, and the more you help, the more others think that you have the ability and should continue to help, once you refuse him, he will be jealous of you, rather than spending money and finally forming an enemy, it is better to refuse at the beginning.
My parents were very happy at the beginning of the scene of the guests, but they were annoyed by the coming and going of these borrowers, and the relatives and friends who often came and went on the third day of the junior high school had come, so we simply closed the door and went to Xia's house to be a guest.
Anyway, don't the Xia family have a little utilitarian heart? That's definitely there, if I were still the same Jiang Fengyuan who had no money and no face before, would they want me to be their son-in-law? The answer is yes, but they need to see that I have a successful career before they can rest assured that their daughter will marry me.
I can fully understand this, the two families are also a good match, the man is rich and the woman is good-looking, so it is easier to get along.
Aunt Gong and Uncle Xia were surprised, they didn't know what happened that day, in order not to worry about them, I also specially told the Xia family three thousand gold to keep their mouth shut about this matter, their original intention was to let the eldest daughter Xia Jiayi with a cheerful personality and similar age develop with me, but on the contrary, the relatively quiet second daughter is close to me, so that as long as one of the daughters has a good relationship with me, even if they can't get together in the future, they can also take care of them。
Since the last time I took the Xia family out to play, I gave the Xia family three mobile phones before and after, which are worth tens of thousands of dollars, if this doesn't mean that I am rich, they don't believe it, and they have watched me grow up since I was a child, and they know that I won't mess around with Xia Jiaer, so they see the intimate behavior between me and Xia Jiaer in their eyes and are happy in their hearts.
Originally, the New Year was supposed to be jubilant, but my parents were a little unhappy, my mother was complaining to Aunt Gong: "Have a good New Year, now my family doesn't dare to go back, you see my family is quite polite, no matter whose gift it is, I don't accept it, and as long as I come, I will give a good gift, why are some people just not satisfied?"
Aunt Gong comforted: "Sister Li, don't think so much, there are such people in this world who can't see the good of others, but there are not many such people after all, you just bear with it." ”
Mom said: "You are right, I didn't think these people had such bad conduct before, I finally saw it in the past two days, and said that Zhang San Mazi of the unit next door never came to my house to pay New Year's greetings before, and it was not lukewarm to meet at ordinary times, and he came over with a bag of more than 10 red dates, and we were also warmly hospitable, but he opened his mouth to borrow 3,000 yuan, I really thought that our money was blown by the wind, we didn't lend it to him, he scolded us for not pulling out a dime, for being rich and unkind!"
Aunt Gong said: "Oh! Sister Li, you've been a neighbor for so many years, don't you know Zhang San Mazi? If you ask him for help, you won't be there, what good thing is more diligent than anyone else, there is no need to be angry for this kind of person." ”
My mother sighed: "I didn't have so much trouble at home before, I had a little money, and everyone came to you to borrow money. ”
I said, "Why don't you move, anyway, the factory has collapsed, and it's not very convenient to live in this remote place!" In the past two days, we have refused so many people who have borrowed money, and soon gossip will come. ”
My mother hesitated and said: "It's okay to move, but here are neighbors who have been together for more than ten years, and I am really reluctant to leave!"
I smiled and said, "There is no feast in the world, everyone has to go around to make a living, and sooner or later it will be dispersed here, so we are just one step ahead!"
My mother glanced at me reproachfully, and said strangely: "How can this kid be ignorant, and he can't say it in someone else's house when he says he moves!
Her worries are quite reasonable, since I said the word "move", the people of the Xia family have fallen silent, don't they know that this place will be dispersed sooner or later? It's just that they are shy, not that they can move if they move! So when I casually said that I moved, my heart was full of envy, and it was also very unpleasant.
Xia Jia'er said with an eager face: "Brother Sanbao, are you going to move away?"
I touched her head and said, "How could it be......"
Xia Jia'er grabbed my arm and pleaded, "Don't move out, okay? I don't want you to go! I'll be uncomfortable if I can't see you!"
I smiled and said, "Then I'll go to study, you still won't see me!"
Xia Jiaer said: "That's different, if you go to study, I will also go to study, but you will always come back, if you move away, you will never come back." ”
Uncle Xia reprimanded: "Jia'er, what are you doing? Brother Sanbao's family has its own plan, what are you messing around?"
Seeing that the scene was getting more and more embarrassing, my dad hurriedly said, "Let's talk about this later! Our shoe store still has to do business, how can we go?"
I said, "What will you say in the future, just say it here today, remember I told you that the future house will appreciate significantly? It just so happens that Uncle Xia is also working in Lou City now, so you can go to the most prosperous place in Lou City to buy a house with a façade, and the façade house can be rented, and you can live well on the rent!"
Xia Jia'er clapped her hands and said happily: "Okay! Okay! Let's buy together, and then we can meet often!"
Uncle Xia and Aunt Gong's hearts were pounding, but they looked at each other, children were ignorant and thought it was as simple as playing at home, but now they can't even afford to buy a suite in Lian City, let alone buy a building in the most prosperous place in Lou City, according to the average price of 2000, it is estimated to be between 80-1 million!
Uncle Xia said with difficulty: "We also want to buy it, but we can't afford it at all!"
Knowing her son Mo Ruomu, my mother smiled: "Don't worry, since my son proposed it, he has a solution!"
