Chapter 293: Spring Festival
Knowing that his father was in charge of the major affairs of the family, and that it was definitely a big deal for him to drop out of school, Jiang Ping no longer argued with his mother, and listened nervously to his father's decision.
Of course, Jiang Ping is already a very independent adult by nature, so even if his parents don't agree to drop out of school, he will definitely not change his initial decision. It's just that then you have to hide it from your parents, which will be more troublesome.
"Jiang Ping, I don't agree if you want to drop out of school." Jiang Jianhua said word by word: "But I think you can take a leave of absence first, if the antique business is indeed as good as you say, it is not too late to drop out of school at that time." ”
For Jiang Ping, this result is already very good. His father's decision was always serious, and it could be regarded as leaving a way out. And Jiang Ping was completely sure that he would convince his parents that his decision was correct a year later.
Thinking of this, Jiang Ping did not hesitate, nodded heavily, and said: "Okay, just listen to you, I will go through the suspension procedures when school starts!" ”
"Well, I hope you made the right decision!" Jiang Jianhua raised his glass to his son: "I wish my son success in his career!" ”
Jiang Ping also picked up the cup and touched it lightly with his father, then raised his head and drank it all and said, "Dad, Mom, I won't let you down!" ”
"I believe in my son!" Jiang Jianhua said confidently: "You kid will definitely have a future in the future!" ”
This Chinese New Year's Eve meal, Jiang Ping's family was very happy. Looking at a pair of children, the smiles on the faces of Jiang Jianhua and his wife never stopped. Jiang Jianhua was even drunk, but Zhu Yun helped him back to the room.
The next day is the first day of the Lunar New Year, and according to local customs, these days are to go to relatives to pay New Year's greetings. Jiang Ping's family is naturally no exception. Except for the father's cousin's house to go. And relatives on my mother's side have to move around. There's hardly a break.
Of course, when chatting with relatives, it is inevitable to mention that Jiang Ping took a leave of absence from school to do business. At the beginning, almost all relatives were very puzzled by Jiang Ping's decision, and of course they would never support it.
In particular, Jiang Ping's two uncles were even more resolute against his decision to suspend his studies. You must know that in the third generation of the Jiang family, the uncle's children are all in high school, and Jiang Ping's cousin Jiang Huifeng. Because of drug abuse, he has been imprisoned in a drug rehabilitation center, and he can no longer be counted on. Therefore, the two uncles really couldn't accept the fact that Jiang Ping, the only college student in the family, was going to suspend his studies.
However, when Jiang Jianhua and his wife introduced Jiang Ping's achievements in the past six months to their relatives, especially Zhu Yun also showed everyone the real estate certificate they carried with them, the relatives who opposed it had nothing to say.
Jiang Ping actually earned money for a house in just over half a year, which is convincing enough in itself. After all, even if Jiang Ping gets a doctorate, I am afraid that he will not earn so much after work. Even if it was just for Jiang Ping to make so much money, no one said that it was a bad idea for him to take a leave of absence.
While going to a relative's house with his parents to pay New Year's greetings, Jiang Ping also called to pay New Year's greetings to the people he knew. For example, Zhao Guoquan's family who returned to their hometown for the New Year, Zhang Chenlin who was in the same situation, and Ye Mei who went to Hainan for a vacation during the New Year. In addition, there are Sun Wenhai, Su Moran and Wei Decheng, who have entertained a lot, Yang Bo, who has been transferred to the criminal police team, Wu Hanqing, the boss of Julongzhai, and Hong Jinlong, Ye Mei's godfather with unknown intentions. Even a few roommates in the university dormitory, Jiang Ping all called to pay New Year's greetings.
These people were all because it was inconvenient to meet Jiang Ping during the Spring Festival, so he could only call each other to greet the New Year. Among them, Zhang Chenlin and Zhao Wanqing were very happy after receiving Jiang Ping's New Year's call. Both of them whispered to Jiang Ping for a long time, until his mobile phone was about to run out of battery, and then he reluctantly hung up the phone.
Of course, there are also people who seem a little unnatural to receive Jiang Ping's New Year's call, this is his beautiful senior sister Lin Xiaonan with a model figure.
In fact, strictly speaking, after receiving Jiang Ping's New Year's call, Lin Xiaonan was also both happy and surprised. Although his good impression of Jiang Ping became stronger and stronger, Lin Xiaonan was a little afraid to talk to him when he thought of doing such a shameful thing to Jiang Ping that night.
Of course, Jiang Ping could also feel that Lin Xiaonan was a little unnatural. He also guessed what the reason was, and after a few simple words, he took the initiative to hang up the phone.
Although the call only lasted less than a minute, this call made Lin Xiaonan feel warm in his heart. After hanging up the phone, she involuntarily said stupidly: "It turns out ...... He remembers me! ”
"Xiao Nan, hurry up and prepare, we're going out to pay New Year's greetings!" At this time, Lin Xiaonan's father's voice came from downstairs.
This brought Lin Xiaonan into reality, she frowned slightly, and finally could only respond: "I know, I'll come right away!" ”
Of course, Jiang Ping didn't know that Lin Xiaonan still had to contribute to the family business during the Spring Festival. In addition to these friends who are inconvenient to meet to call for New Year's greetings, Jiang Ping of course wants to personally greet each other for the New Year.
For example, Jiang Ping's friend Zhou Jun in high school, and Wei Zixin, who likes to mess with a group of gangsters even during the Chinese New Year, made appointments to meet each other.
Of course, Wei Zixin was very happy to be able to hang out with Jiang Ping. She didn't even shy away from hugging Jiang Ping's arm in front of her little gangsters and announcing that he was her boyfriend.
Although the actions of the eldest sister Wei Zixin surprised Li Quan and others, everyone quickly accepted Jiang Ping, the "eldest brother-in-law".
After all, Jiang Ping has excellent skills, first-class driving skills, and is also a righteous person. Although there were some conflicts between the two sides at the beginning, Wei Zixin's subordinates still have a good impression of Jiang Ping at the moment.
Only Jiang Ping himself was a little resistant to this. Especially when Wei Zixin hugged Jiang Ping tightly, he didn't feel any ups and downs in the little sister's chest, and couldn't help but sigh in his heart: "I don't want such a flat-chested girlfriend!" ”
Of course, Jiang Ping only thought about it in his heart, and he wouldn't say it in public. Wei Zixin is a young girl after all, and it is not easy to take the initiative to announce that Jiang Ping is her boyfriend in public. If Jiang Ping still refuses, it will be too incomprehensible, and he will never do this with his uncle's soul.
A few days before the Spring Festival passed in such a busy situation, and it was the fifth day of the Lunar New Year in a blink of an eye. This day is the traditional day to welcome the God of Wealth, and many businessmen will set off firecrackers into the temple to burn incense on this day, hoping that they will have a prosperous business in the new year.
Originally, Jiang Ping's family did not set off firecrackers on this day, but now that Jiang Ping has begun to trade antiques, Zhu Yun also insisted on doing so.
In fact, Jiang Ping himself doesn't care about this, he makes money by his own vision and snobbery, and it really has nothing to do with setting off firecrackers on the fifth day of the Lunar New Year. If you can make a fortune just by setting off firecrackers on this day, then there will be no one in this world who has failed in business.
But since it was his mother who wanted to do this, of course Jiang Ping would not refuse. He took the initiative to buy a lot of firecrackers and set them off on the fifth day of the new year, and obediently accompanied his mother to the temple to burn incense early in the morning.
When he came out of the temple, Jiang Ping regained his freedom. He put his mother in a taxi, then bought a lot of gifts from a nearby store and rushed to Li Qian's house in large bags.
Before the Chinese New Year, Li Qian said to Jiang Ping that on the fifth day of the new year, Jiang Ping would go to her house to pay New Year's greetings. Of course, Jiang Ping does not have to come to visit the New Year as Li Qian's boyfriend, but as a student of Li Linxiang.
After all, Li Linxiang, as the head teacher of Jiangping High School for three years, is still very responsible. Every year, many students come to visit the New Year during the Spring Festival, and Jiang Ping's actions are not too abrupt.
Of course, in Li Qian's eyes, Jiang Ping came to visit the New Year, which has a completely different meaning. But at the moment, this is just a little secret between the girl and Jiang Ping, and no one knows except them.
Because he was nominally here to pay New Year's greetings to the teacher, Jiang Ping didn't buy particularly expensive gifts. He knows Li Linxiang's character very well, and if a former student comes to visit him for the New Year, he will definitely accept some ordinary gifts. However, if the gift is too valuable, Li Linxiang will definitely not accept it.
And if it is a student that Li Linxiang is still teaching, he will also welcome the New Year, but he will definitely not accept any gifts from these students. This is Li Linxiang's principle, and it is also one of the places where Jiang Ping admires him.
So today, Jiang Ping came to visit the New Year, and he bought some fruits, two boxes of tea that were not bad, and two boxes of snacks.
Of course, Jiang Ping also secretly prepared a gift for Li Qian - a set of ** specially bought for her. If it had been a few months earlier, Jiang Ping would never have bought such a gift for Li Qian. However, since Li Qian's birthday last time, Jiang Ping went to Shencheng to celebrate her. The relationship between the two who spent the night together was one step closer, so Jiang Ping thought of buying this for Li Qian.
Of course, considering Li Qian's age and her character, Jiang Ping chose a set of rules and regulations, which can bring out the girl's pure and lively temperament. If it was for Ye Mei or Wei Zixin to buy **, he would definitely not choose this style.
Jiang Ping came to the outside of Li Qian's house, and then called her as agreed. Li Qian soon came downstairs, but Jiang Ping found that she had a displeased look on her face, and she was obviously very unhappy.
"What's wrong with you, you look like you're puffing." Jiang Ping said with a smile: "For the New Year, who made my family unhappy?" ”
Seeing Jiang Ping's Li Qian, she was in a slightly better mood, but she still said dissatisfiedly: "Who else can it be, it's those boring relatives of my family!" It's really annoying to come to block people's homes during the New Year! ”
Jiang Ping also thought that Li Qian was unhappy because she felt that a relative came to the door and ruined her hard work, so she smiled and persuaded: "During the New Year, relatives should also move around." You think they just need to worry less, as long as they get through the past few days, they will be clean. ”
Li Qian shook her head and said, "I don't dislike those relatives, it's just that the person they brought is always pestering others, it's really ...... It's so nasty! (To be continued......)
