Chapter 212, a family reunion
"Alright Mom, let's go in. ”
Standing at the door of his grandfather's small building, Li He saw that his mother looked like she wanted to go in but didn't dare to go in, which was both a little funny and a little sad.
In fact, Li He has no impression of his grandfather, because Qiao Chu himself does not come back, and Li He, who has followed Li Jie, rarely has a chance to come back. On his grandfather's side, Li He's deepest impression is his grandmother and uncle, only they go to see him every year during the Chinese New Year and Li He's birthday, or he buys him some gifts or something.
The small building of my grandfather's house is a relatively old house in Faith City, and the small street is full of stone roads, not because of the development of tourism, but all the time. The small building has a wall, and the wall is planted with glass, but after so many years, the glass has long been smoothed, and the wall is full of roses.
Qiao Chu took a deep breath and asked, "You said that your grandfather wouldn't scold me?" Actually, it's not that I haven't come back, but every time I come back, he scolds me, so I don't want to come back later. ”
Li He smiled and said, "That's your father, let him scold you a few times, he is also old, and he may not be able to scold a few times." "In his previous life, his grandfather died a few years after he went to college, and I hope he can live longer in this life.
Qiao Chu's eyes widened, and he said, "What nonsense, if he wants to scold, let him scold for decades!" After speaking, he took another deep breath and opened the unlocked door outside the courtyard.
"Yo! Chu Chu is back, and Xiao He has grown so tall. "I was greeted by a kind grandmother, and when I saw Qiao Chu and Li He, her wrinkled faces were smiling brightly. Grandma must have been a beauty when she was young, and although she has passed her prime, she can still vaguely see the shadow of the past, and Li He feels that her mother's personality is like her grandfather, and her appearance is good with her grandmother.
"Mom......"
"Grandma!"
After wandering outside for a while, this will enter the door, Qiao Chu just called Mom, and tears flowed out. Li He screamed happily, and his grandmother, who was very good to him, was still very healthy in his memory, which was a happy thing.
"Why are you crying silly girl?" Grandma took Qiao Chu into her arms, rubbed her hair, and couldn't help shedding tears, and whispered in her ear: "Stubborn temper, you four brothers and sisters, you are most like your father's stubborn temper, alas......"
Hearing the sound outside, Li He's second uncle, brother-in-law and several aunts also walked out, Li He looked at these strange relatives, and only felt a little trance. The second uncle has a straightforward personality and a big voice, and the younger uncle looks gentle and elegant.
After entering, my grandfather and uncle were still sitting in the living room, and my grandfather was holding it, thinking that no one saw the twitching pain in his eyes when Qiao Chu came in, but he still had a straight face, and even Qiao Chu called him, but he just snorted with his nose. The eldest uncle was dragged here by his grandfather, and when Qiao Chu called his father and eldest brother, he quickly stood up and turned around to ask his aunt to give Li He a New Year's bag.
Well, Li He also breathed a long sigh of relief in his heart, the family was reunited, and the task was finally completed.
Li He's uncle Qiao Dong is in his early 50s, and he is well maintained, although he is the director of the Faith City Industrial and Commercial Bureau, and his level is right, but he can't see any shelves at home. The second uncle, Josie, was two years younger than the eldest uncle, was wearing a military uniform, with two bars and three on his shoulders, and was about to transfer from the army to the locality, and he was still hesitating where to go. Uncle Qiao Nan started his own company, and he just bought a new Audi parked outside the small building.
Li He later said to his mother, fortunately you are a daughter, otherwise according to your grandfather's lazy habit of choosing names, you should be called Qiao Bei.
Li He's three uncles actually mix well in the small city of Faith, and they also have one thing in common is that each family has only one child, and not only do they have only one child, but now the children are almost not around.
Li He also learned now that his eldest cousin is now staying in the capital as a civil servant. The second cousin is in the army, and he is still in the navy, speaking of which, Li He was quite close to the second cousin on New Year's Day, because the base of the second cousin's unit is in Hainan. And the brother-in-law Qiao Nan is two years older than Qiao Chu, but he got married a few years later than Qiao Chu, and the child is several years younger than Li He, and he is still in junior high school, and he is the only one of the third generation of the Qiao family who is still at home.
But this cousin named Qiao Rusong has not inherited Li He's elegant Uncle Qiao Nan in terms of appearance and personality, and he is dressed brightly, but at a young age, he feels more slippery. While the adults were talking, the juniors naturally sat in another room and watched TV. Li He and Qiao Rusong didn't have anything to say, but Qiao Rusong kept staring at Zhao Jinzhu who came with Li He, and when he looked at Zhao Jinzhu, that kind of look was almost the same as the young master with a birdcage on TV looking at a little girl selling flowers on the street.
Every family has a scripture that is difficult to read, Li He remembered that his uncle was good to him in his previous life, but it was this cousin who made his uncle worry a lot. Looking back now, sure enough, a seedling has grown crooked.
Whether it was the 35-year-old soul in his body or the body that was already a freshman in college, Li He didn't want to worry about this cousin, but when Qiao Rusong's eyes were staring at Zhao Jinzhu evilly, he sat next to Zhao Jinzhu quietly, just blocking Qiao Rusong's sight.
Qiao Rusong remembered something and asked, "Who is this?"
Neither did he call his cousin, nor did he mean to treat Li He as his cousin, nor did he know if the person he wanted to ask was Li He, or if he asked Li He who Zhao Jinzhu was.
Li He's expression was indifferent, but he said in a cold tone: "Today's main theme is a reunion, don't let the adults bother about you." ”
Qiao Rusong glanced at Li He and said, "You are talking very impulsively, college students are amazing, how much does your father who is a policeman give you living expenses a month? 500 or 1,000? My pocket money for a month is enough for you for more than half a year." ”
Li He said: "I can have 10,000 or 20,000 a month, but my father didn't give it to me, I earned it myself." Li He actually said casually, if you divide the money he has earned since his rebirth by the month, where is this number. But there's no need to worry about such a child.
Qiao Rusong didn't say anything for a while after listening to Li He's words, and after a while, he looked at Zhao Jinzhu and asked, "Who is this? Your girlfriend is too young, isn't it? You can really do it, it's about the same age as my girlfriend." ”
Li He glanced at Qiao Rusong coldly and said, "Stay away from me before I get angry, otherwise I won't mind bullying the small." ”
Qiao Rusong cut off disapprovingly, and wanted to say more, but at this time, the adults called for dinner, and he reluctantly walked out.
Li He heard Zhao Jinzhu exhale, so he reached out and touched her head and said, "Don't worry, Jinzhu, I won't let anyone bully you." ”
Zhao Jinzhu smiled and said, "Just him, except for his eyes, I can't see what he can use to bully me." But Brother Li He, after all, this is your relative, and I don't want you to be unhappy with me and him. ”
Li He took advantage of the situation to grab one of her hands and said, "For me, he is just a relative, and you are my relative." ”
Zhao Jinzhu blushed, but didn't pull his hand out, and said seriously: "Except for my father, Brother Li He is my most important person, well, my aunt is the third most important." ”
Li He wanted to ask if this was a confession? But it was too unkind to bully the little girl, so he just patted her on the cheek and said, "Let's go, eat." Although this meal will be very boring with that kid, it can make my mother happy, and I don't bother to care about him. I have a hunch that there will be a lot of intersections with this kid in the future, at least for the sake of my brother-in-law's face, I'm afraid I have to teach him how to behave. ”
After eating, the little aunt took Qiao Rusong and left first, which made Li He breathe a sigh of relief, otherwise he would be angry, and now he would have to help his uncle teach him. At the dinner, they talked about some empty topics, and the eldest uncle and second uncle accompanied their grandfather to care about national affairs, and the younger uncle also deliberately stayed to learn more about the lives of Qiao Chu and Li He.
After chatting with Qiao Chu for a while, Qiao Nan asked Li He directly: "You have used everything you have to win a private pharmaceutical factory, where do you think the biggest profit space is?"
Li He said: "The core is the earth. The city is developing, and the land for the pharmaceutical factory will definitely increase in value. We have invested some, but we are not in debt, and now our Internet café income is quite good, so it is a big deal to let the pharmaceutical company wait for the appreciation of the value. ”
Qiao Nan said: "The development of real estate is the trend of the times, it should be said that your vision is good, I have acquaintances in the National Development and Reform Commission, and the development of the provincial capital must be very fast." However, if you hoard land for too long, it is equivalent to putting the living funds into death. After taking a sip of tea, he said to Qiao Chu and Li He, mother and son: "Since there is land, then take that land to take out a loan, activate products, do a good job in sales, and let the factory run." There are many pharmaceutical industries in our province, there are systems, and the industry has changed greatly in recent years, and it is also a process of survival of the fittest. In this process, there will also be some brain drain, as long as you find a suitable talent, it is possible to make the factory come alive. ”
Qiao Chu said: "The R&D team can be formed now, but I am a layman in this industry for management and operation. ”
Qiao Nan smiled and said, "There is no shortage of such masters among the lost talents I just mentioned. In this way, I will recommend a few people to you, you can find out for yourself, and if there is any problem that cannot be solved in the process of talking, just come to me. In terms of loans, I have a classmate in Guangyin Bank, which is a city commercial bank controlled by the Guangyin municipal government, and under the influence of the municipal government's policies, it attaches great importance to supporting private small enterprises, and the loan amount, cycle, and interest rate are all advantageous compared with several large commercial banks. ”
"Okay," Qiao Chu was also a straightforward and decisive person, so he said, "I'll talk about this when I go back." ”
Li He asked, "Uncle, what is your main business?"
Qiao Nan looked at this nephew, smiled very esotericly, pointed upwards with his hand, and said, "Look at the need." ”
Since there is a way, Li He said with confidence: "Then buy stocks." "In his previous life, Li He also played stocks, but he started late and carried it a little bit, which is worse than those aunts who speculate in stocks. But compared with his aunt, he will check the information, and he also regrets that he did not catch up with the good days, if I remember correctly, 99 to 01, 06 to 07, this is a bull market.
Qiao Nan had also heard his sister say that this nephew had a lot of demons, and he thought it was just a mother's blind admiration for her son, but now he looked at Li He seriously, he knew some insider information about the stock, and knew that it would be a bull market in the past two years, but how did this kid know? But no matter what, he felt that he was in the right direction to take the initiative to support their mother and son just now. Helping them out of affection, but wouldn't it be better if we could give back?
After nodding deeply, Qiao Nan said, "Okay, Li He, my uncle is very optimistic about you." After a pause, he said, "I'll help your cousin more in the future." "Sure enough, the son is better than the father.
Li He smiled and said, "It must be." ”
