"Lao Zheng, do you think we have the time to take our children and go back to our hometown in Shanghai together? When we resigned from the unit and went to the sea together, we were all blinded in front of relatives and friends, and we always felt that we were not doing our jobs properly, and we were in the eyes of money, especially in front of the old man, and we were almost expelled from the house. If it weren't for the New Year's holidays, I wouldn't dare to go back at all, but this time it's rare for the child to have a long face, and I can finally go back in style. The children of some relatives and colleagues are also taking the college entrance examination this year, go back and let them see, not only Lao Tzu can make more money than them, but the sons born by Lao Tzu are also better than the children they born. Tang Hao's father sketched a picture in his mind, all the relatives and friends in the family were talking flattering words around him, praising his son, thinking of this, he couldn't wait to fly back immediately.

Before Zheng Yan's father could speak, Tang Hao poured a basin of cold water on his father, "I wasn't born by you," Seeing his father glaring at him, he quickly added, "Originally, I was born by my mother." ”

Although Zheng Yan was used to Tang Hao's unsurprising words, he still couldn't hold back and sneered.

"Stinky boy, what are you talking about?" Tang Hao's mother patted Tang Hao's head with a little embarrassment.

"It's time to go back, our situation is similar, I'm more or less better than you, at least my second brother is still working in the unit at this time, you are a man in your family, although your eldest sister is working in the unit in a down-to-earth manner, but your old man feels that since his daughter is married, he can't be regarded as a member of your old Tang family." Your only son refuses to inherit his father's business, and the old man is inevitably a little difficult to accept. In the past few days, there has been nothing going on in my company, so let's just go back tomorrow, the main thing is to go back to comfort the old man's heart, as for what those relatives and friends say, it is not so important to the two of us at all. ”

"Okay, I'll ask someone from the company to book a ticket for us first, and then call home as soon as I book the ticket. Saying that, Tang Hao's father took out the big brother in the bag and called the people in the company.

After lunch, the two families went to the mall together to buy some gifts to take home.

Early the next morning, Zheng Yan's father asked the company's driver to drive a small bus that usually picks up customers, and after loading the things, he went directly to the airport.

Coming out of the airport in Shanghai, Zheng Yan's second uncle Zheng Xiancheng was already waiting at the exit, "Big brother, what about this?"

"Brother Tang, knowing that you came back with your eldest brother, I asked Xiao Wang, the driver of the unit, to drive a car over and ask him to send you back, and my eldest brother will drive them back directly. Zheng Xiancheng said to Tang Hao's father.

Since he was originally a world friend, Tang Hao's father was not polite.

At this time, although Shanghai has not yet become a world-famous international metropolis like later generations, it is still much more prosperous than the deep city that is waiting to be rebuilt.

Zheng Yan thought that since the early 90s, there will be some auctions of state-owned assets one after another, and if there is a chance at that time, you must participate, especially some state-owned shops, etc., which will be auctioned together with buildings, and buy one or two buildings at will, as long as they are put for more than ten years, you can become a billionaire with this alone.

Although it is still a bit early to think about this, you can also include it in your future development plan first.

Just when Zheng Yan was wandering the world, the group had already returned to their old house.

"Dad, I brought my eldest brother and sister-in-law back. Second Uncle Zheng Yan said to Zheng Yan's grandfather.

The old man of the Zheng family is now retired, but as the first batch of state civil servants after the founding of the People's Republic of China, he still believes that contributing to the construction of socialism is what a Chinese should do. Therefore, Zheng Yan's father's behavior of going to the sea to do business has always been obsessed.

"Xiao Yan is back," the old man glanced at Zheng Yan's father and said to Zheng Yan, "It's been so long since the summer vacation, and I don't know how to come back to see grandpa, by the way, how did you go in the college entrance examination?"

Zheng Yan's father saw that the opportunity for his performance had come, and he didn't wait for Zheng Yan to speak, "Dad, Xiao Yan has taken the top science exam in Guangzhou Province this time, didn't I bring him back to give you good news." ”

When the old man heard his son say this, although he was already happy in his heart, he was unforgiving, "My grandson has the ability to take the top prize, that is my grandson's ability, what does it have to do with you?

"Xiaoyan, yes, it's better than your father, but your father is still a party member. , let the good state civil servants not do it, and concentrate on the eyes of money. Although the old man of the Zheng family is very dissatisfied with Zheng Yan's father, he still loves his grandson very much. "In the future, I can't learn from your father, go to university, study hard, and make contributions to socialist modernization in the future. ”

"Grandpa, don't be angry with my father, isn't the purpose of our country's leaders to promote reform and opening up is to develop the country's economy? ”

In fact, the old man of the Zheng family also understands in his heart, but when he occasionally hears the people around him talking, he always feels that Zheng Yan's father has embarrassed him, although he has never let go of his eldest son, but in fact, he doesn't care very much in his heart. It's just that the old man has a bit of a stubborn temper and refuses to give in.

In the next few days, Zheng Yan's father, together with Tang Hao's father, invited relatives and friends around him to have a meal, and listened to the people around him praise their son, which can be regarded as making the two of them who have suffered a lot of white eyes, raise their eyebrows and breathe a sigh.

Zheng Yan's grandfather even asked Zheng Yan to accompany him out for a walk every day, facing his old friends and colleagues, he finally didn't hear the words of his son, and saw that everyone praised his grandson vigorously.

Originally, Tang Hao made an appointment with Zheng Yan to come back during this holiday and get together with his former classmates and friends, but later the two found that most of them had already joined the work, and most of them did not choose to go to high school at the beginning, or the same as most people's choice nowadays, after graduating from junior high school, they were directly admitted to the technical secondary school, and then they joined the work. Even if you have the heart to come out and get together, most of them can't find time, after all, after joining the work, there is no summer vacation.

Another part of the people who took the college entrance examination basically did not have satisfactory results, and after learning about the results of Zheng Yan and Tang Hao, although they wanted to get together together, they were also a little unable to wipe off their faces.

"We're all alone now. Tang Hao said to Zheng Yan.

"In fact, it is also normal, when the gap between people becomes larger, it is time to say goodbye, just like the same train, there is always someone who gets off first, but there will also be someone who gets on the train again. Zheng Yan also sighed.
