Chapter 7: Duncan and I are shining for a while
County Magistrate Xu and others wanted to talk to Li Wei about the acquisition of the leather shoe factory, but Li Wei pushed the matter to his business assistant, and he took Luo Wei to visit the newly recognized goddaughter's house.
Xie Siqi, who got a few posters, was very excited, and as soon as she entered the house, she yelled: "I'm going to stick Jordan and godfather in my small room, and stick Sha Ke Du in the living room!" β
Xie Siqi's mother, Xia Cuilan, muttered: "Sticking the portraits of these foreigners, it's so ugly!" β
Xie Jianguo said: "Go, what do you know, these are stars!" β
Xia Cuilan said in a low voice: "Jianguo, this big American boss is so short, do you think he looks like Wu Dalang?" β
Xie Jianguo said: "Shhh β
Li Wei helped Xie Siqi put up the poster, and the first thing to post was himself.
The girl glanced at Li Wei, who was wearing a suit in the poster, then looked at other posters, and asked curiously: "Godfather, why are everyone else wearing team uniforms, but you are not wearing them?" Which team are you from? β
Li Weidao: "I am a rookie this year, and I don't have a team yet. β
"Rookie, no team?"
Li Wei said unashamedly: "I just told you that this Duncan Dunner is a super newcomer this year, and all teams are coaxing, and so is your godfather." The two of us are the strongest duo this year, and we are bright for a while! β
Xie Siqi blinked: "What do you mean by a moment of Yuliang?" β
Li Weidao: "During the Three Kingdoms period, there were two immortal geniuses, named Zhou Yu and Zhuge Liang. Later, whenever two earth-shattering characters appeared at the same time, people would say that they were a moment of brilliance! β
"Wow, godfather, you actually had a good time with Deng Nerd, I guess you must be Zhuge Liang!"
Li Wei smiled: "You are so smart, you can guess it!" β
Xie Siqi said: "It's easy to guess, Zhuge Liang is the smartest, and Duncan is stupid, he is definitely not smart, godfather, you will definitely be able to beat him to the ground!" β
Li Wei said: "Haha, you are right again. β
"Blow lightly." Luo Wei, who was sitting in the corner of the sofa, reminded in a low voice.
Li Wei ignored her, but said to Xie Siqi seriously: "Your godfather and I are the most realistic, I never know what bragging is, you have to be like your godfather when you grow up, be a down-to-earth person." β
"Oh." Xie Siqi nodded, and asked again: "Godfather, apart from the two of you, are there any newcomers this year?" β
"Yes." Li Wei flipped through the stack of posters he brought, "This high school student named Maddie is very unpopular." Well, I'll give it to you, too! β
Xie Siqi pouted and asked loudly, "Can he beat you and Duncan?" β
Li Weidao: "Of course I can't beat it, Duncan and I are bright for a while, how can he compare?" β
Xie Siqi took a closer look at Maddie, who didn't seem to wake up in the painting, and sighed: "Since he is so bad, I don't want it, just post a photo of my godfather." β
Li Weidao: "You can't think like this, although his strength is not as good as mine, as long as he is willing to work hard and unswervingly fight for his ideals, he is also worthy of our respect." Come, let's go to the living room and put it on! β
"Oh."
After the two pasted Li Wei and Jordan, they went to the living room to put up other posters. When Maddie's poster was finished, a baby looked at Li Wei and screamed.
Xie Siqi's family is a less common family structure, her father Xie Jianguo married Xia Cuilan, and his father's younger brother Xie Jianjun married Xia Cuilan's sister Xia Cuirong. In other words, her sister-in-law is her second aunt. The baby was her aunt's daughter, Gigi Tse, who was just one and a half years old this year and couldn't speak very well.
"It's so cute!"
Li Wei looked at the naΓ―ve Gigi Tse, remembering her gentle and virtuous appearance when she grew up, and his heart was very warm.
Just then, the door creaked open, and a girl of about twenty years old walked in.
Xia Cuilan hurriedly said: "Cuirong, come and get to know, this is Mr. Li and Miss Luo, the big bosses from the United States." Mr. Li, this is my sister Cui Rong, and she is also the mother of Gigi. β
Li Wei turned around and was completely stunned.
In this era, Xiangyang Town got married early, and after 20 years, it is difficult to see a childish girl mother like Xia Cuirong. However, he was stunned not because Xia Cuirong was young, but because all kinds of memories from his previous life came to his heart.
Xia Cuirong is only eight years older than him, but she has always been the person he respects the most.
It was two or three years ago in her previous life, Xia Cuirong, who graduated from junior high school, went to a two-year secondary school, and during the internship time of the secondary school, her unit held an activity to help orphans, and everyone had to recognize an orphan as a relative.
It is popular to recognize godrelatives in Xiangyang Town, but after that event, everyone else didn't pay attention to their godrelatives in the orphanage, only Xia Cuirong still remembered Li Wei. Xie Siqi later took care of Li Wei, and was also entrusted by her aunt.
Once, Li Wei was most afraid of holding a parent-teacher conference, because as soon as the parent-teacher meeting was held, everyone knew that he was the orphan without parents. But after Xia Cuirong appeared, he liked to hold parent-teacher conferences the most, and he studied hard, a large part of the reason was to let Xia Cuirong have face when she held meetings.
In addition to the kindness that surpasses the mountains, Xia Cuirong is also a role model for Li Wei's life. She is affectionate and righteous, modest and studious, kind and gentle, meticulous and serious.
Li Wei's deepest impression is that when he was in primary school, Xia Cuirong was a primary school teacher who graduated from secondary school, and when he was in junior high school, Xia Cuirong took the college diploma and became a junior high school teacher. When he was in high school, Xia Cuirong took the undergraduate diploma and became a high school teacher.
"Xiaowei, I was delayed when I went to school, so I can only come step by step. You can't learn from me, you have to take a famous brand in one go! β
In his previous life, Li Wei's favorite person was Xie Siqi, but he always had the most perfect woman in his heart, and that was Xia Cuirong. After a lifetime, how can you not be excited to see this face in the depths of your memory again?
Xia Cuirong didn't expect that the person in front of her, who was short in stature and looked like a child, was a big boss. Then I saw the big boss staring at him with his eyes intended, his mouth slightly open, and he didn't know how to wipe it when his saliva flowed out, and he was a little stunned for a while.
What does he want to do?
Xia Cuilan was also stunned by Li Wei's appearance, and asked Xie Jianguo in a low voice: "What kind of eyes does this Wu Dalang look at Cuirong?" β
Xie Jianguo said with some uncertainty: "It seems to be Zhu Bajie's eyes looking at his daughter-in-law!" β
Xia Cuilan was immediately furious: "Just with his three-inch ding, Gu bark, he dares to beat my sister's idea?" β
Xie Jianguo said: "Be quiet, people still want to sponsor Siqi to study in the United States!" β
Xia Cuilan said in a low voice: "I don't think this person is a good bird, and he may not have any good intentions to fund Siqi!" β
"Huh?" As soon as he heard this, Xie Jianguo's face also became serious.
Of course, Li Wei didn't know that he had lost his temper for a while, and he was classified as a bad guy by the Xie family. Reporting the thoughts of repaying the Xie family, he quickly made an offer.
"Weiwei and I don't like to tidy up the house, and we want to hire a nanny, with a monthly salary of 3,000 yuan, which is dollars. Since you are Siqi's family and not an outsider, I wonder if you thought of our family to help? β
"$3,000 a month?" Xie Jianguo's eyes lit up.
It's ninety-seven years now, not 2017 twenty years later. In this era, the monthly salary of the leather shoe factory was only 300 yuan, and the RMB did not appreciate, and the official exchange rate was 1:8.3!
3,000 US dollars can be exchanged for nearly 25,000 yuan, and it can even be exchanged for 30,000 yuan on the black market, which is equivalent to the salary of a shoe factory worker for six or seven years!
It is terrifying to be able to make money for six or seven years a month, and no one can not be tempted!
Li Wei also felt that this number was enough to impress them. The Xie family has a good face, and it is not appropriate to give money directly, and they do not have particularly obvious specialties, so it is most suitable to pull them to the United States in the name of a nanny.
"Who do you want to go?" Xia Cuilan asked.
Li Wei immediately looked at Xia Cuirong. Xia Cuirong is studying English in secondary school, and she is currently taking the college entrance examination, and her foundation is still good. If she goes to the United States, Li Wei can sponsor her to go to college.
Of course, if Xia Cuirong doesn't go, Xia Cuilan will do the same. As long as you go to one, the two families can get closer, and Li Wei can find more opportunities to help them.
Xia Cuilan saw Li Wei looking at her sister again, so she didn't mention her anger. Taking advantage of Li Wei's inattention, she secretly said to her husband: "With a salary of more than 20,000 yuan a month, hire a nanny, who believes it?" He must be trying to kill Cui Rong or something! β
Xie Jianguo said: "More than 20,000 a month, even if it's worth it!" β
Xia Cuilan's eyes widened angrily, and she said in a low voice: "Cuirong, a girl, went to a place like the United States and was killed by a Wu Dalang, what can you say?" If Cui Rong has a good one, how can I explain to my dead parents? β
Xie Jianguo's eyes rolled and said, "Otherwise, you go?" β
Xia Cuilan lost her voice and said, "Ah, your brain is broken? β
Li Wei stayed in Xiangyang Town for two days, after which he stepped on the train to Shanghai (Harmony). He entrusted the acquisition of the shoe factory to his assistant, after all, there were still many things to deal with in the United States.
On the long train, Li Wei couldn't figure out the attitude of the Xie family, so he found an opportunity to ask his goddaughter: "Siqi, do you know why your mother refuses to be a nanny?" β
Xie Siqi has been fighting with her godfather in the past two days, her little eyebrows wrinkled, and she said in a low voice: "My mother said that you are not a good person!" β
"Huh? Why? β
Xie Siqi said: "My mother said that when you look at my aunt's eyes, you must have thoughts about her." My dad also said that the shorter you are, the more beautiful you are! β
Li Wei's face suddenly twisted into a bitter gourd shape.
No wonder the attitude of the Xie family has been strange in the past two days, and the co-author has been regarded as a big bad wolf. Even about sending Xie Siqi to the United States to study, the Xie family was vague and did not give a clear answer, and now that I think about it, people will also refuse!
This is good, good intentions do bad things!
"Siqi, what are you talking about with your godfather?" Xie Jianguo came back from the bathroom and looked at his daughter curiously.
"Didn't talk about anything." Xie Siqi stuck out her tongue and rolled on the bed. It was her first time to do a train, and it was the first time to sit in a soft sleeper, and she liked this kind of bed very much.
Li Weidao: "We are talking about what the (harmonious) sea looks like." Jianguo, are your comrades-in-arms really working in the youth team over there? β
"Of course, when we were in the provincial team, we were iron buddies, not to mention anything else, it's okay for you to visit the team there before leaving." Xie Jianguo was a little complacent.
Li Wei nodded. If you can't pick up Xie Siqi, it's good to see the legends of Chinese basketball before leaving. The giant who carried the Chinese team on his shoulders in his previous life is only seventeen years old now, right?
Li Wei has always felt that Da Yao is too late to participate in the draft, and at the age of twenty-two, his skills have already been set, and there is no more room for improvement. If he could have entered the United States earlier and received more professional basketball training earlier, his future would have been unimaginable.
Or do I sponsor Da Yao to go to the United States early?
As soon as this idea popped up, Li Wei felt that it was feasible. If Da Yao can go to the United States to set an example for Xie Siqi, the Xie family doesn't have to worry that he wants to sell Xie Siqi, right?
