During this period, the uncles and uncles who usually work at home and farm no longer work, and they all stay at home. When you hear the movement of the car, you quickly run out. When they saw the New Year's goods on the small truck, everyone helped to take the New Year's goods off the car and move them to Li Xuanning's grandfather's house. Li Zhenguo and Li Zhenxing did not separate their families, and when they returned to their hometown, they all ate and lived with their parents. The entire old Li family, so far, there is a college student named Li Zhenguo, and Li Zhenguo and his family have eaten imperial grain. Later, with the help of his brother and sister-in-law, Li Zhenxing and his family went to the city to gain a firm foothold. The other brothers and uncles still stayed in the small mountain village to work as farmers. Therefore, over the years, Li Xuanning's grandfather's family has the best conditions, and the old man and the old lady are happy all day long. This year is even more different, the scene of Li Zhenguo's family in Nanlin shocked everyone in the entire old Li family, the richest man in Nanlin.

The living room at home was crowded with men, women and children of the old Li family. The elders can have a seat to sit, and cousins like Li Zhenguo's generation can only stand or squat on the ground with a small bench. Grandma Li Xuanning, Hu Qiuyue and Duan Yun took all kinds of dried fruits, candy biscuits, fruits, melon seeds and nuts and other snacks brought back from the city and distributed them to everyone, and Li Zhenguo and his brothers were busy distributing cigarettes to their elders and cousins. It's not lively at home.

After Li Dashao returned home, he flashed after entering the house and saying hello to his grandparents. There are also two little children behind him, her cousin Li Yueru, who is in the first year of junior high school, and her cousin Li Xuanping, who is in the fourth grade of primary school. It's usually hard to see the boss, but now I'm going home for the New Year on vacation, and I'm going to keep up quickly, and now everyone knows that there is meat to eat with their own boss.

Li Dashao put his hands in the pockets of his sweatpants, walked leisurely to the big flat in front of the house, looked around and into the distance for a while, turned around and looked at the houses in his hometown, or the tiled roof adobe house built in the 70s, more than 20 years have passed, even if it is cleaned up every year, it still looks dilapidated.

The younger brother Li Xuanping said: "Boss, when you have time in the future, take me out to have fun." ”

Li Dashao smiled and agreed: "Okay, but it depends on your academic performance." As long as you have good grades, let alone play, I have a lot of rewards. But if you only know how to play all day long, and when you take the exam, you don't even get into the key middle school, then you go back to your hometown to farm, or go to the base to farm. ”

Li Xuanping hurriedly asked: "Boss, if I score 95 points in the Chinese test and 98 points or more in the math test, what reward can I have?"

Li Dashao said again: "What reward do you want for yourself?"

Li Xuanping said: "I want to go to Pengcheng to eat KFC. ”

Li Dashao said: "Okay, as long as you can achieve the score you said in the mid-term exam next semester, I will take you to eat KFC in the summer vacation, as well as water parks and children's playgrounds to play." ”

Li Xuanping suddenly jumped up with joy: "Boss, it's decided." I'm going to eat KFC, I'm going to a water park, I'm going to play in a playground. ”

Li Xuanning didn't pay attention to him anymore, and asked his sister Li Yueru: "Yueru, how do you feel when you go to junior high school?" Li Yueru was not admitted to a key junior high school and went to Nanlin No. 4 Middle School, an ordinary junior high school.

Li Yueru said a little timidly: "I feel that it is more difficult to study, and there are so many subjects at once, which is a bit too much to take care of." ”

Li Xuanning thought for a while and said, "I remember that before you were in the fifth grade of elementary school, your grades were quite good. Why did you fall so far behind after the sixth grade?"

Li Yueru half-lowered her head and muttered, "I don't know either." I just don't feel like I'm as focused on studying as I used to. ”

Li Xuanning thought again: According to her previous footprints, this girl graduated from junior high school, did not go to high school, went to the technical secondary school of Yuedong Health School, studied nursing, and became a nurse after coming out. According to the current development of our family, what kind of nurse do you want to do? It's not that nurses are bad, it's just that there could be better options.

Li Xuanning said: "You are unconscious, and your uncle and aunt are usually busy, so they don't have time to take care of you." You're smart, but you can't go on like this. At the beginning of the next semester, my brother will find you a few tutors, and you must pay attention to every subject, and you must be admitted to a key high school. Then I went to university and went to management. The family is such a big mess, you have to come back to help in the future, and it is better to be your own boss than to work for others. ”

Li Yueru replied: "Got it, brother." I'm going to do my best. ”

Lunch was eaten on a large flat ground, with 3 large homemade round tables. Early in the morning, he killed a self-raised big fat pig, got chickens, ducks and fish, and the vegetables were all home-grown, and the wine and hookah were all used with good tobacco and wine, as well as the drinks that the children loved to drink. According to Grandpa Li Xuanning's meaning, today should be the New Year together in advance, and the Chinese New Year's Eve dinner is still the rule of previous years, and each family eats at home.

The three brothers plus Li Zhenxing's generation of 7 brothers sit at the main table, and the grandmothers and concubines like Hu Qiuyue sit at the same table. Below that, you can sit at 2 or 2 tables at will. When Li Dashao was about to sit on the table of the younger children with his cousin and cousin, he was called over by his uncle Li Zhenxing and asked him to sit at the main table. After adding bowls and chopsticks, Li Zhenxing gave Li Xuanning another glass of Moutai wine and a whole Great China.

Uncle asked: "I heard that Xuanning did well in the high school entrance examination, how are your high school grades now?"

Li Xuanning replied: "It's okay, I took the top 50 in the grade in this midterm exam." ”

The fourth uncle said in surprise: "What about the cow, the top 50 of South High School, a proper famous university." Try to keep it up, our family's first famous college student. ”

Li Xuanning said with a smile: "Work hard for another two and a half years and strive to be admitted to a prestigious university." ”

The eldest grandfather smiled and said, "Good job, Xuan Ning, worthy of praise." ”

Grandpa Li Xuanning and Li Zhenguo both smiled and didn't speak, this kid doesn't have to worry about them, he knows what to do. On the contrary, he can often take care of many affairs at home and business.

After Li Dashao ate a few bites of food, he picked up the small wine glass, carried the wine bottle, toasted the elders one by one, and drank more than two taels of liquor after a circle. The elders were also surprised, this kid is amazing now, no matter what aspect. Lao Li's family has always smoked and drunk regardless of generation, as long as you can drink, you can drink whatever you want.

Eating, drinking, and chatting, the grandfather said again: "Zhenguo, you see, except for your two brothers, the other brothers in the family are all cats in the mountains, and you know how much harvest can be harvested in this mountain every year." I heard that you are now making such a big business in Nanlin, can you bring your brothers with you?"

Li Zhenguo smiled and said: "Zhenxing and I are now in charge of the affairs of the base, if the family wants to go to the base to get a job, then it will definitely be no problem." The real estate and business centers are all autumn moon tubes. I never interfered in her affairs, but Xuan Ning was very familiar with it, and often helped his mother with advice. ”

All the elders looked at the Li family together, this kid is really capable, such a big business, he can make suggestions.

Grandpa Li Xuanning spoke: "Xuanning, let's talk about it, and see what is suitable for the other brothers and sisters in the family." ”

Li Xuanning pondered for a while and said: "On the real estate side, there are buildings, properties, and gardens that are capable. Of course, according to the current skill conditions of our family, we can only start from the workers, and when the conditions are met, we can give priority to promotion. Our shops in the business center are not take-out, only rented. It's okay to open a shop and do business. There is also a supermarket, which will be in charge of my Aunt Yun when the time comes. Some jobs in supermarkets are relatively simple and easy to get started, such as cashiers and shopping guides. ”

The third grandfather said: "Don't think about opening a shop and doing business for the time being." I see, go and get a job, maybe it's okay. It's better than in this mountain nest. ”

The fourth uncle sighed and said: "Indeed, in this mountain nest, the biggest problem is the education of the children. If you can get a stable job in the city, you will be able to stand firm, and the children will be able to go to school in the city. ”

Several other uncles also agreed with the fourth child's statement.

Li Xuanning added: "No matter where you work, attitude and ability are very important. A turnip and a pit, occupy that position, you have to do things well. In your own company, as long as you have the ability and are willing to endure hardships, then there is absolutely no such thing as being excluded or deliberately making things difficult. As the saying goes, families have family rules, and the country has national laws. The company naturally has the company's rules, and the punishment will be punished. ”

The eldest grandfather smiled and said, "Xuanning said it well, this is reasonable." Even if the big guy goes to work in his own company, he has to do his job well. No, go back to this mountain nest obediently and accompany me, the old man. ”

Everyone says that's how it should be.

Li Dashao smiled and said: "Although the income of which jobs is better than working in the mountains, it is relatively low. It's the same for everyone, they start from scratch and learn slowly. As long as you have the heart, you can always do something. We are all our own family, so we will speak our own words. As long as you find an opportunity or can create an opportunity, you can boldly talk to your boss. It doesn't matter if you don't have funds, the boss has it. ”

For his own family, Li Xuanning, who is the second person, is still happy to give him a chance. But you can't send money directly, that would not help him, but would hurt him.

Living in the old home of the mountain nest is a special taste.

Chinese New Year's Eve, Chinese New Year's Eve dinner. In the living room of his small house, Li Xuanning's grandparents, Li Zhenguo and his wife, Li Zhenxing and his wife, Li Xuanning, Li Yueru, and Li Xuanping sat at a table. This year's harvest is so rich, everyone in this family is smiling and happy, and the atmosphere during the meal is extremely relaxed and happy.

Li Xuanning said: "Grandpa, grandma, I think our house is also a little dilapidated, can we consider building a new one?"

Grandpa said happily: "This old house, although it is a little dilapidated, but grandpa is used to living in it, and he doesn't feel anything." But now that your business is developing so well, you should also replace the old house. Xuanning is also coming of age soon, and it will be time to marry a daughter-in-law in a few years, according to your current development, the person you will find in the future will definitely be no different, and this dilapidated house is indeed a little undignified. Besides, it wasn't enough to live then, and now it's all reluctant. So I'm in favor of building a new house. ”

Grandma also smiled and said, "In the past, when there was no money, it was enough, but now you are not short of this money." It's time to build a new house, and then my granddaughter-in-law and great-grandson will be more comfortable. ”

Li Xuanning asked again: "What about your parents, uncles and aunts?"

Li Zhenguo said: "It's really time to build a new one. Hu Qiuyue also agreed.

Li Zhenxing said with a smile: "Our family has the final say, you can build it if you say it." ”

The aunt also said: "That's right, Xuanning has the final say." ”

Li Dashao smiled and said, "That's it, then it's built." My idea is to focus on practicality and comfort, and not to engage in extravagance and waste. ”

Grandpa said: "That's how it should be, you can live in a big villa in the city, that's face." Hometown, it should be simpler. ”

Li Dashao said: "I suggest that all the families of the old Li family be included in the new list, the style is the same, and the scale is determined according to the needs of each family." It's not for free, it's settled according to the cost. If you don't have enough money or no money, we can pay it in advance and pay it back slowly. Of course, whether to build or not to build is voluntary. ”

Li Zhenxing asked: "Then what if someone defaults on the debt and does not pay it?"

Li Dashao said with a smile: "For us, the money is all gone, and there is not much money. But ah, you can't do things for free, that will raise lazy people. If someone defaults on his debts, okay, it means that his credibility is gone. We won't force him to return, but in the future, the family will never want to get preferential treatment and support. ”

Grandma nodded and said, "It's appropriate to do this, taking into account the current difficult family, and being able to restrain him." And it's voluntary, you're afraid of hardship, and you feel that you can't earn money to pay it back, so you can not build it. ”

Li Xuanning also said: "In order to make it easier for everyone to enter and exit, I suggest that the current dirt road of more than 3 kilometers and 4 meters wide be expanded to 6 meters and hardened. Building roads is a good thing for public welfare, and we have paid all the money. ”

Li Zhenguo said with a smile: "Building roads is a good thing, support." Everyone in the family agreed.

Li Dashao: "All the above expenses are responsible for Nanlin Dinghua Real Estate Development Company, Mom, you have no opinion, right?"

Hu Qiuyue replied with a smile: "Of course I have no opinion, your father and I are working to fight the world for you, and all this will not be yours in the future." Just say it. ”

Li Dashao smiled and said, "Okay, then it's decided." Grandpa, grandma, dad, uncle, aunt, is there anything else you need to add?"

After a happy Chinese New Year's Eve dinner, my cousin led a large group of little ones to place the fireworks pulled back from the city into the clearing.

Looking at the brilliant fireworks scattered in mid-air, Li Dashao felt incomparably brilliant.
