Chapter 215: Relatives
Lu Junyan helped Song Ziyang get a room in a hotel close to his home, and after he settled down, the two went out to forage for food.
Originally, Song Ziyang wanted to stay in Jinling for a few more days before going home, but Song's father called and asked him when he would be home, and he suddenly remembered that the Lantern Festival was about to be celebrated. Since Chinese New Year's Eve could not be spent at home, the words of the Lantern Festival must not be missed again.
Originally, the best of both worlds was that Lu Junyan would go home with Song Ziyang to spend the Lantern Festival, but Lu Junyan really couldn't find a reason to return to Pingjiang for such a festival, so she had to give up! Song Ziyang promised that after returning to Pingjiang, he would come to Jinling to see her again as soon as possible, which made Lu Junyan a little embarrassed.
Back in Pingjiang, Song Ziyang found that in addition to the fact that there were fewer people on the street, there was not much atmosphere for the New Year, which was very different from his impression when he was a child, and even worse than in the past era.
Song Ziyang didn't go home just for the Lantern Festival, since he went home, he walked around a lot less with the relatives on both sides of his parents, except for the aunt's side, which was a frequent meeting, the other relatives almost never met, and some relatives didn't even know the news of his return.
The Lantern Festival has not yet passed, and this year is not over. So, under the leadership of Song's father and Song's mother, in the more than a day before the Lantern Festival, Song Ziyang's schedule was full, and he almost stepped on the threshold of the main relatives in the family.
At that time, Song's father and mother took Song Ziyang away from relatives, in addition to announcing their son's return, but also to tell those relatives that their family Ziyang is now promising, not only as a class teacher in school, but also opened a company outside, became a boss, and made a lot of money.
As a result, it was quite hilarious when it was turned, but after the turn, troublesome things came. Some called to borrow money, and some wanted to stuff their children or friends' children into Song Ziyang's company, although Song's father and Song mother had a big head, they also couldn't refuse directly for the sake of their relatives, so they had to accept it for the time being, and then all of them were thrown to Song Ziyang, so that Song Ziyang was so worried!
Song Ziyang still attaches great importance to family affection, but his emphasis is principled, you and I are relatives, and I also value this feeling, if you just use family affection as a bargaining chip, then get out of the way and play!
In this way, Song Ziyang can't tell his parents directly, but he can express it in another way. He has not been at home all these years, and his memories when he was a child are weak, so he has a lot less impression of those relatives, so he asked Song's father and Song's mother, among these relatives who asked them, which people have been moving around all these years, which people came to the door only after hearing about him, which people usually speak and do things quite authentically, and which people have never been reliable. After figuring out these one, two, three, four, Song Ziyang finally decided to help the two families.
There were five companies that asked for help, and he only chose two, not that he couldn't help the other three, but he didn't want to help at all. Although there were some words that Song's father and Song mother did not say in place, with Song Ziyang's experience, they could naturally distinguish the meaning that they did not say.
"Ziyang, you helped this family, don't help that family, isn't this offending people for nothing!" Mother Song said worriedly.
"Mom, I just said it, help those who should help, don't help if you don't have to, relatives should look like relatives, people say, distant relatives are not as good as close neighbors, what have those relatives done in the years that I have been away? Isn't it as good as our neighbors upstairs? Is it necessary for me to help such relatives? ”
Song's mother wanted to persuade again, but Song's father raised his hand to stop him: "Okay, let the child decide for himself, it's all the child's own ability, he naturally has his own considerations, besides, what Ziyang said also has his reason, people are watching the sky, and our family doesn't owe anyone, just have a clear conscience!" ”
"Thank you, Dad!" Song Ziyang is still very happy about his father's deep understanding of righteousness, and he doesn't want to make his parents unhappy because of some of his insistences.
The two families that Song Ziyang chose, one is a relative of Song's father, which is not close, it is the son of Song's father's uncle, and his surname is Song, so naturally it is not far away. Their son, that is, Song Ziyang's cousin, reached the age of talking about marriage, the woman's requirements were a bit high, and their family finally pooled money to buy a house, and the money for decoration and wine had not yet been settled.
As we all know, borrowing money is not an easy thing to do nowadays, so the other party didn't have much hope when he opened this mouth, and the amount proposed was not large. But Song Ziyang learned from Song's father that his cousin is still a good person, and he will bring some fruits or something to visit from time to time during the New Year's holidays, and he is the one who knows how to respect the elderly the most among the younger generation.
Therefore, Song Ziyang replied to their family very happily, if they are really in a hurry to use the money, they can lend them 100,000 yuan, and they don't need to pay it back in a hurry.
When my cousin's family heard such a result, they were naturally overjoyed, and they also made a special trip to thank them and withdraw the money by the way.
The other is the relationship between Song's mother, and the reason why he chose one on one side is also to show that he is impartial on both sides.
This family is not an immediate family member, it is the youngest uncle of Song's mother, who wants to find a job for his son. The son of his mother's uncle, speaking of which, Song Ziyang also has to call the other party's uncle, and the seniority is there, although this little uncle is not as old as Song Ziyang.
The Song family doesn't move around with their family too much, but Song's mother's youngest uncle is Song Ziyang's grandmother's only brother.
Using relatives in his own company, Song Ziyang did not reject this, otherwise he would not have let Zhu Dacheng join before. Song Ziyang didn't plan to let Zhu Dacheng stay at night, but this time he took this opportunity to transfer him to a construction company, and the vacated seat was just right for his little uncle.
The night market is a hard job, and it is the hard work that can see a person's heart. There is no problem for him to take care of his relatives, but he is not reused by all his relatives, and it is also a good choice to throw it to the night market to test it first.
Regarding these arrangements for his son, Song's father and Song's mother naturally had no opinions.
It's just that Zhu Dacheng expressed some hesitation about transferring to a construction company.
"What's the matter? Don't want to go yet? Song Ziyang asked.
"No, no, I'm used to staying here, and I'm a little reluctant!" Zhu Dacheng said.
"Phew, I've only been doing it for a few days, why can't I be reluctant, do you think you can eat barbecue for free here? Look at you! ”
"How is that possible! Smell that smell every day, where can you still eat it! ”
"That's it! After the New Year, I will report to the company and go to the construction site to study! Song Ziyang decided.
"Oh!"
On the day of the Lantern Festival, to Song Ziyang's surprise, an uninvited guest came to the house, and He Yu, who had talked to Song Ziyang about joining before, took the initiative to touch the door.
Looking at He Yu, who was carrying a large bag, Song Ziyang asked, "What are you doing here?" ”
"I heard that Boss Song is back, so I came to pay a visit to my old age, don't see outside!" He Yu said with a smile, "I wish Boss Song a prosperous business and a wide range of financial resources in the new year!" ”
"Do you think that after cooperating with me, I will get rich, and you will also get rich!"
"Boss Song is a fast talker! That's right, I just want to make money with you! Our brothers have been gearing up for a long time to do a big job, just waiting for your order! ”
"They don't have any opinions on the conditions I said last time?"
"No opinion, no opinion at all! You see, when you're free, let's finalize the details again? ”
"Okay, you wait for my call, I'm free to call you in the next two days!"
As he was talking, a phone call came in, and He Yu hurriedly said goodbye. Song Ziyang picked up the phone, but he didn't expect that the other party turned out to be the organizer of The Voice.
Song Ziyang really didn't have a good impression of the voice, so he didn't bother to say more to the other party, so he hung up the phone directly. Unexpectedly, the other party persevered to call one after another, Song Ziyang was so annoyed that he picked up the phone again, and just wanted to scold, but he heard the other party say earnestly: "Mr. Song, I made a special call to apologize to you!" ”
"Huh? What apologies? Song Ziyang said curiously.
"We received complaints from some netizens, saying that in the finals in Hedong Province before, Fang Luoluo players received some unfair treatment, we went through a detailed investigation, checked the complete video of the game at that time, and after the deliberation of the organizing committee, it was unanimously decided to agree to Fang Luoluo players to enter the national finals!"
After saying this, the other party paused, thinking that the other end of the phone would be very excited, but heard Song Ziyang say without emotion: "Is this what you want to say?" When that's all that said, I'm going to hang up! ”
"Wait a minute!" The other party was taken aback, and hurriedly said, "Are you going to give up the opportunity to let Fang Luoluo enter the finals?" ”
"She's busy taking the college entrance examination now, so she doesn't have time to play with you!"
"There are only 60 places in the national finals, and each one is very precious, and this extra place is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity!"
"You should leave this kind of opportunity to others, we are not rare!"
"Being able to stand on the stage of the Voice National Finals and sing is the wish of everyone with a musical dream, are you really sure that Fang Luoluo doesn't want to participate?" The other party didn't give up, but was still trying to persuade, "Moreover, recording these programs won't take up too much time, and if she can get good results in the competition, it will also be very helpful for her to apply for music professional colleges!" Please think about it again! ”
Hearing the other party talk about his dreams, Song Ziyang had a trace of hesitation in his heart, he was very clear about Fang Luoluo's dedication to music.
"Okay, I'll think about it again!"
