Chapter 470: Plan
Because of his son's words, Chen Weiguo and Tao Xiuying didn't close their eyes for half a night.
Moving is a simple matter, when you go to the city, what to drink for an old snack, what to do with the house and land in the village, and the problem of household registration, the third and fourth are easy to do, and it must be difficult to send the little five to study in the city.
Tao Xiuying has been married to the Chen family for more than 20 years, bought a car a year ago, and followed Chen Weiguo to the city.
Tao Xiuying actually has ideas about going to live in the city, but not now.
When the son has a good life, the women or concubines in the village will make a few jokes with sour or envy, such as going to the city to bring their grandchildren in the future.
Although Tao Xiuying didn't think so, she had some thoughts in her heart, but with her temperament, she would never say it.
Chen Weiguo was also a little irritable, his son was promising, it stands to reason that he should be happy, but when he heard about entering the city, he felt very uncomfortable.
More than 20 years ago, Chen Weiguo thought about entering the city.
It's just that at that time, I was more worried, the eldest brother left for the school entrance examination, and the family of the black five old men also left, leaving only the little girl, and later, Zhang Ziyu also left with the child.
Chen Weiguo hated the Zhang family before, after so many years, his mind has faded, put himself in his shoes, think about it, if the family is gone, leaving Xiao Wu alone in the countryside, he can't agree anyway.
The Chen family and his wife were tossing and turning and couldn't sleep.
Tao Xiuying heard her husband sigh and asked, "What's wrong?"
"It's okay, I'm just a little worried about Xiao Wu's schooling. β
Both husband and wife came from the planned economy, and even if the production is contracted to the household, the commercial grain household registration is still superior, and they do not understand the new situation and new policies, but the household registration book clearly says that the agricultural household registration, and it is not so simple to go to school in the city.
Tao Xiuying was also angry, "It's not that you're used to it, when will the third and fourth use us to worry about it, even the tuition fee will be saved in high school, and then look at the little five, like a spirit all day long, but you don't have to worry about studying, how can you get it if you go on like this?"
Chen Weiguo was silent for a while, "I have to send Xiao Wu to the city to study." β
Clearly, he had made up his mind.
Tao Xiuying was a little hesitant, "You think clearly, I'm afraid it will cost a lot of money." β
"If you spend money and admit it, you can't just leave a few big ones and leave the little five in the countryside, right?"
Tao Xiuying sighed, children are debts, she finally realized it.
After thinking about it, she breathed a sigh of relief again, and finally her son was angry, otherwise the couple would not dare to think about entering the city.
"Tell me, how much money does the second child make?" inadvertently, Tao Xiuying asked, and it was at this time that she had the heart to think about these.
"I don't know, but it seems that he didn't tell the truth, and you don't know, since last year, he seems to have changed as a person. β
The men of the Chen family are a little wooden, but this does not mean that people are stupid, what their own son is like, Lao Tzu naturally knows it in his heart, but the father and son lack communication.
Tao Xiuying didn't think so much, "I should have made a lot of money, just the two watches of the third and fourth, he said tens of thousands, it is estimated that he is scaring the fourth, but one or two thousand must be wanted." β
"It's pretty good. Chen Weiguo responded, "Tomorrow you talk about him, such an expensive thing is completely unnecessary, if it were me, I would definitely be reluctant to buy it." β
The first half of the sentence was fine, but when she heard the second half of the sentence, Tao Xiuying's heart suddenly became angry, and she sat up from the bed on the ground, "Chen Weiguo, you have to speak according to your conscience, and you are reluctant to have no points in your heart?"
Chen Weiguo was a little puzzled, "What's the matter, I didn't say anything?"
Seeing her man like this, Tao Xiuying somehow felt a little uncomfortable, and she kicked Chen Weiguo's leg hatefully.
"Shhh
This kick didn't spare any strength, and it happened to kick Chen Weiguo's ankle, which made him tremble in pain, "What's wrong, how did I provoke you, why don't you say it if you are angry?"
"Chen Weiguo, you treat me as stupid, right? The more Tao Xiuying spoke, the more angry she became, and her voice became higher.
"Wear the things hidden in the compartment under the drawer of the wardrobe, you can't see it, do you?
Chen Weiguo felt a thrill in his heart, and he immediately remembered that he had indeed bought a watch, and the price was not cheap.
When he married Zhang Ziyu, in order to support the faΓ§ade, he scraped together some money, and bought an old Shanghai women's watch to give to Zhang Ziyu.
Chen Weiguo was a little weak-hearted, when he remarried, life was even more difficult, the watch was hidden by him with the divorce certificate, and he hadn't mentioned it for so many years, but he didn't expect it to be turned out tonight.
He also had some strange things in his heart, he hid it very secretly, he forgot about it himself, how could he be discovered, he sneered: "How many years ago, why do you mention those?"
Tao Xiuying is also a little tasteless, and it is not a secret that her own man did that little thing back then, after so many years, it is really useless to think about it.
Chen Weiguo couldn't help but ask, "I hid it well, how did you know?"
Tao Xiuying didn't have a good voice, and said: "What's the matter, if you want to find the back account, don't ask me, ask those leather monkeys." β
No matter who it is, there is a stage of bear children, the four babies of the Chen family, all of them are not simple, Tao Xiuying sometimes thinks about it, she is a little afraid, I don't know how she survived so many years.
When she was poor, she didn't feel that life was difficult, but seeing that there was hope for life, Tao Xiuying had some grievances, and she couldn't help but say a few words to her husband by taking this opportunity.
Chen Weiguo knew that he was at a loss, but he didn't say anything and dealt with it carefully.
Suddenly, there was a few soft knocks on the door.
Both husband and wife were shocked, they have been married for decades, and they have never blushed in front of their children.
Tao Xiuying asked, "What time is it, why haven't you slept yet?"
"Mom, it's me, thirsty, get up and drink water. β
Chen Xi's voice came from the door, and after a pause, she asked again, "Mom, did you quarrel with Dad?"
"Nope. Tao Xiuying hurriedly denied it, and then advised: "There is herbal tea on the table, don't drink too much, and set the fan to a regular time before going to bed, you can't blow it overnight." β
"Hey!" Chen Xi responded, but she was very puzzled, obviously hearing the sound of her parents arguing, she had no choice, she could only ask the second brother what he meant when she turned around.
β¦β¦
The next day, Chen Qiaoshan slept until three o'clock in the morning, finished washing, and was about to eat, but unexpectedly saw Chen Weiguo still at home.
Chen Qiaoshan was a little strange, "Dad, didn't you say yesterday that you would send a pump and water pipe in the morning, it's past nine o'clock, why haven't you left yet?"
Chen Weiguo said: "Take a day off today. β
Chen Qiaoshan was very surprised, this is not like Chen Weiguo's style, he asked: "I'm idle today, why don't you give me the address, and I'll help you run today?"
"No, I've contacted them all, and I'll go back tomorrow. β
Chen Qiaoshan didn't insist anymore, and after a while, Chen Xi brought a bowl of pot porridge and a plate of pickles, he couldn't help but be overjoyed, "Cook porridge, this is a good thing." β
Chen Xi smiled: "Mom knows you like it, so I made it on purpose today." β
The Chen family has always been based on noodles, and it was rare to eat rice in the past.
However, Tao Xiuying is a native of Hubei Province and is used to eating rice, and last year Chen Qiaoshan specially carried back a bag of rice, and since then, Chen Weiguo will also bring some back from time to time.
Xiao Wu interjected: "Mom is just eccentric, I know that you like to drink porridge, and you don't keep it at all, I still like to eat pot!"
After breakfast, and there was no shadow of Chen's mother, Chen Qiaoshan asked, "Where did our mother go?"
Chen Xi was busy cleaning up the dishes and chopsticks on the table, and said, "Li Lao Wu in Xiawan is under the yellow eel, and my mother said to buy some." β
Xiao Wu hurriedly said: "Second brother, Mom killed an old hen in the morning, saying that she was making up for you." β
Chen Qiaoshan shook his head, being a mother will always have the heart to.
Chen Weiguo asked: "Second brother, aren't you going to take Xiao Wu and them to Yanjing for a few days, when are you going to leave?"
Hearing this, the three sisters of the Chen family all stared at Chen Qiaoshan, not only Xiao Wu, Chen Xi and Chen Wan were also looking forward to growing up, the three sisters' cognition of the outside world only existed in the concept, and they must have expectations for this trip, especially the destination is Yanjing.
The thought of being able to go to Peking University in advance to have a look, Chen Xi and Chen Wan couldn't stop being excited, as for Xiao Wu, it doesn't matter where they go, even if they just go to the city, it makes the little sisters in the school envious.
"Just these two days. β
Chen Qiaoshan didn't have time to stay at home longer, he had to talk about the first batch of projects selected by Tsingshan Capital in person, NSFOCUS Technology also had to speed up, and Tsingshan Forum, the negotiation team that Elliot was looking for will arrive in Yanjing tomorrow, even if he can't come forward, he still has to explain it in person.
"So fast?" Chen Weiguo was a little surprised, he still wanted to talk to his son about sending Xiao Wu into the city to study, seeing that school was about to start, things couldn't be delayed.
"Not fast, not fast, I've been looking forward to it for a long time, second brother, let's leave tomorrow, I've chosen all the clothes to change." β
This unlucky child made the two men of the Chen family blacken their faces.
Chen Weiguo's face sank rarely, "Little Five, I will be in junior high school next semester, learn more from your third sister and fourth sister, and only then can I have a future career." β
Xiao Wu is accustomed to looking at people's faces, and seeing Chen Weiguo's serious appearance, she responded carefully.
Chen Qiaoshan doesn't have much confidence, this girl has a different temperament from the third and fourth children, and if she wants to change, I'm afraid she can't be forced.
He had already made a plan, at most three years of junior high school, and if the grades of the fifth grade had not improved, he would stuff this girl into Hong Kong.
Today's Hong Kong high school has a four-year education system, but the university is only three years, which just gives Xiao Wu enough time to adapt, and when she graduates from high school, the special recruitment of mainland colleges and universities to Hong Kong has also begun, and then it is much easier to find a way, as for studying abroad, it is not in his plan at all.
Chen Qiaoshan thought very clearly, whether it was the third, fourth or fifth, if they didn't graduate from their bachelor's degree, they would definitely not let them study abroad, as for going to Pheasant University to gild, there was no door, and there was no need for that at all.
