Chapter 20: The Family on Both Sides
"You lie down for a while, I'll put a basin of water for you, and you can soak in it later."
"Don't worry, just sit down for a while and talk to me." Cao Zhongmou felt that his messy family affairs had caused trouble to Luo Chaoying, and he was willing to give her some compensation. However, she can be the majority of the company's home, although the two of them are businessmen, but they don't particularly care about money, except when the real estate company was expanded, Cao Zhongmou gave her 15% of the shares, these years, she has never had any requirements in money. Both of them are the kind of people who don't love money and just use it to prove their worth.
Luo Chaoying got up and made a cup of strong tea, sat back again, and Cao Zhongmou also sat up and leaned against the head of the bed. "Cigarettes, get them for me."
"When you drink, smoke less, and if you can't help it, I'll light a cigar for you." The book says that cigars don't have to be inhaled into the lungs and are less harmful to the body. β
"What the book says is not necessarily true, and if we do what the book says, we probably won't be able to live. Is Xiao Mo's job confirmed?! β
"Hmm......" Luo Chaoying helped him take out a pack of cigarettes, helped him light one, and handed it to him. Xuedong takes care of him, and we don't have to worry about his work, but his character is really reassuring. β
"I said a long time ago that he would come to work in my company, but you didn't ask me to mention it. Don't say it, I still appreciate his character, although he is a little extreme, he has reason, perseverance and character are good, and he is the blank of a successful person. Rockefeller didn't just write a book, "Only a Paranoid Can Succeed," and I think his character has the potential to succeed. β
"Don't praise him, a company like CNPC, that's not a man with his tail between his legs, after he goes in, I don't know how much he will suffer!"
"So I always think that he shouldn't go to work at CNPC, and the place that is really suitable for him to survive should be a private company like ours, whether it's a textile company or a real estate company, as long as he is willing to come, I can immediately give him a mid-level position. Anyway, you still have some shares here, won't you leave it to him in the future?! β
Luo Chaoying said stiffly: "It depends on my mood, if he is still angry with me like this, I will not give him all the shares in the future." β
Cao Zhongmou laughed, "You...... Do you know who Xiao Mo is with? Jianguo's person is more sleek, and I think his character is more with you. β
"I'm not as unreasonable as him, it's been almost seven years, he just doesn't say a word to Jianguo, sometimes I think about it, I still admire him."
Don't say this in front of the founding of the country, his own son ignored him for seven years, he didn't know how uncomfortable it was! If it weren't for this, he would have named his current little girl Chen Mo? Xiao Mo is still young, and when he becomes a father, he knows how difficult it is to be a father. How did he get along with the girl from Director Li's family of Petronas?! β
"It looks like it's going well, but I heard that the girl is going to study in France, who knows what the future holds! He ran to Roujia's grave at two ends in three days, and whoever put it aside also had a thorn in his heart! β
This also shows that he attaches great importance to affection, such a child is rare now! If Cao Yu hadn't been two years older than him, I would have wanted to match the two of them. These two days have been busy, waiting for the 28th, it happens to be Saturday, you invite him over, I invite him to dinner, which can be regarded as celebrating his official entry into society. β
"If it's like this, I don't want him to come to the house, and I'll arrange a table at the hotel when the time comes."
"It's okay, when the time comes, I will call the old man, Jianjun's family, and Xuedong's family, and have a good time."
It was late at night, but in the ancient city of Hanjiang, thousands of miles away, Chen Jianguo's family had just sent off the last group of visitors. Chen Jianguo was lying on the sofa, and the six-year-old Xiao Chen Mo was barefoot, holding the back of the sofa and stepping on his waist, making Chen Jianguo let out a refreshing gasp from time to time.
He secretly scratched his finger on the center of Chen Mo's little foot, and Chen Mo sat on him with a smile. "Dad, you are bad, you know that Xiaomo is most afraid of itching, I don't follow ...... I don't depend on ......."
Chen Jianguo's heart melted by her coquettishness, and he smiled: "Okay, good, it's Dad's fault, how about Dad compensate you for an ice cream?!" β
"Really?!" She stole a glance at her mother, who was cleaning the cups in the kitchen, and whispered, "What if my mother says me later?!" β
"I'll help you get it, Dad is not afraid of what your mother says."
Chen Mo excitedly pounced on him and kissed him on the face. "I knew that Dad was the best." She jumped off the sofa and helped Chen Jianguo set up her slippers, staring at him expectantly with a pair of big black eyes.
Chen Jianguo twisted a handful of smiles on her little face and said, "Dad counts when he talks!" β
There were only three people in the family, Chen Jianguo's actions attracted Rong Jing's attention, and when he saw Chen Jianguo taking an ice cream, he couldn't help but say: "It's almost time to sleep, you still give her ice cream, she has already eaten seven or eight today." β
Chen Mo retorted and said, "There are only five, and I only ate five!" β
"There are a lot of five, you go to sleep, don't think that the day and night will be reversed every day during the holidays, and you will start elementary school in a few days, and you will not be able to get up when the time comes!"
"I promise, this is the last one of the day!" Chen Jianguo said with a smile: "I promised my daughter, but I can't be untrustworthy, right?!" β
"Just spoil her! Now I know that I have to talk to me every day! β
"My daughter, who do I not spoil?!" Chen Jianguo walked back triumphantly and handed the ice cream to Chen Mo. "Well, go to bed after eating, get up early tomorrow, and adjust your work and rest time, otherwise, when you go to school, you will suffer."
Chen Jianguo's oil pipeline bureau is located on the outskirts of Hanjiang City, which belongs to the Jianghan Oilfield, but it is 200 kilometers away from the Jianghan Oilfield. This is a subordinate oil pipeline bureau of the oil field, which is responsible for the transportation, pressurization, and maintenance of nearly 400 kilometers of pipelines. Although there are less than 500 employees, it is a small closed society, and here, as the number one, he is the emperor of the soil here.
In the family home, the pipeline bureau has its own independent kindergarten, but because there are too few students, it signed an agreement with a key school in the urban area, and all school-age children go to school in the urban area, and they are picked up by special buses every day. However, it is seven kilometers away from the schools in the city, so the children have to leave a little earlier to start school. Even if Chen Mo is his daughter and wants to sleep lazy, there is no way.
The primary school is not like the kindergarten in the family area, the teachers all know that Chen Mo is their daughter and will take extra care, which also makes him a little more worried about the child's primary school than herself. The older he gets, the softer his heart becomes, thinking that at the beginning, when Chen Mo was in school, he still had no heart and lungs, and after graduating from elementary school, he didn't even recognize his teacher. But now for Chen Mo, no one has gone to school yet, and he has already dialed up and down the school, and almost every teacher's phone is stored in his mobile phone.
After cleaning the water cup, Rong Jing poured a glass of boiled water from her own cup, and also returned to the sofa and sat down. She is just over thirty years old, she is the most golden age of a woman, sitting next to Chen Jianguo, not like a husband and wife, but more like a father and daughter.
Rong Jing has no regrets about finding such a husband, she was born in the northern countryside, she knew since she was a child that if she wanted to change her fate, she could only rely on study, but after graduation, she met in the capital and broke her blood, and she knew that she could not change her fate by relying on knowledge alone.
At this time, she met Chen Jianguo, Chen Jianguo, who was in his early forties, at that time, he was full of charm and deeply attracted her, he was not only the straw in his life, but also his lover.
After being with him, although she left the capital, she was very satisfied with being able to work, live and enjoy a superior life without pressure in such a small city.
Chen Jianguo is also very fond of this little wife, she is not as strong as Luo Chaoying, and gives him enough respect and admiration, which makes him quickly recover the pride and pride that a man should have.
Seeing her somewhat tired face, he reached out to help her massage her shoulder. Xiao Chen Mo watched his movements, and also came over to press his mother, and after a while, the family of three laughed together.
Chen Mo slept a lot during the day, and now he still refuses to sleep, Rong Jing arranged for Chen Jianguo to say: "You go and put her to sleep, I have to go and count the gifts sent by these people today, if there is something too valuable, I will return it tomorrow." β
Chen Jianguo nodded. "You and I have a good income, and now I only have Xiaomo's burden, which is not even a burden for the two of us, so you must grasp the degree. Ask us to do things, the water is clear, there are no fish, we will accept the gifts that should be received, and take care of them. We now have a house and a car, and these small gifts are also 120,000 yuan a year, and we can save for ten years, which is enough for Xiaomo's expenses. We want to give her a complete warm home, so be sure not to cross the line. β
"I know! You don't need to say that. It's the old man's birthday in a few days, should we go back?! β
"Of course, I want to go back, and by the way, I also have more exchanges with friends at the headquarters, and the relationship between people depends on walking."
"Xiao Mo is also going to work, you don't have a little expression as a father?!"
"He doesn't recognize me as a dad, and I still whisper to celebrate with him?! I don't care about him! But seeing Rong Jing's smiling smile, he couldn't help but sigh again: "I really owe him in my last life, there are no high-end clothes here, when you go back, you go and pick a better suit for him!" β
Chen Mo asked as if he didn't understand: "Xiaomo is going to elementary school, not going to work?!" β
Rong Jing said with a smile: "It's not you, Xiaomo, it's Da Mo, the elder brother in the capital, I haven't seen him for a long time, do you miss him?" β
Chen Mo laughed and said: "I like Da Mo the most, he bought me HΓ€agen-Dazs, it's delicious!" Oh, we're going to the capital, we're going to eat HΓ€agen-Dazs! β
Chen Jianguo smiled and scratched her nose, "Little gluttonous cat, you know how to eat!" Having said that, the pampering in his eyes was revealed.
