Chapter 36: An Unusual Chinese New Year's Eve

"Do you want to marry me?"

When Jiang Chen heard this, he was stunned for a moment and asked, "Sister, have we known each other for two months?" Do you want to flash marry me? Have you figured it out? ”

It's too impulsive to think about it.

"Don't be afraid, I'm just asking." Lu Mingqiao smiled, she was really anxious.

"Is there something tricky at home?" Jiang Chen asked again.

"It's not a big deal, who hasn't had to face a few things? I'm fine, it's just a daily hypocrisy. "For example, family affairs, family members, constant contradictions and inseparable, always make people very distracted.

However, Jiang Chen took Lu Mingqiao's sentence that he wanted to marry him to heart.

He looked at the rented nursing home, and there was no other place to stay.

I lived with the old lady, so I didn't say anything.

But he didn't want Lu Mingqiao to live in at all.

I never knew that I liked someone, I just wanted to give her the best, for fear that she would be wronged.

I looked at the balance in the bank card again, and I couldn't even afford one square meter of Yanjing.

After living for twenty-five years, for the first time in my life, I realized that money was so important.

Jiang Chen picked up his mobile phone and called Qin Wenzhi.

"Professor Qin, I would like to ask you a question."

"You say."

"What are the industries around you that make the most money and make the fastest money?"

"What you are asking, all the industries that make the fastest money are all under punishment. Fari, how can you, a graduate student in the Department of Economics and Management, ask such a non-rigorous question? ”

"I'm sorry professor, but I didn't think about it, I just want to see which industry is suitable for me after the year, because I major in economics, minor in computer engineering language, and the development direction is artificial intelligence, and now artificial intelligence is also very popular, so I want to know from you, which of these two industries is more suitable for me."

"You're right, artificial intelligence is really hot now, I have a friend who is doing this, I recommend you, go to work in the next year."

Fortunately, if you can quickly integrate into the team and participate in the project as soon as possible, you can also get the money to marry your daughter-in-law earlier.

"Lack of money, right?" After Professor Qin finished chatting about work, he quickly captured Jiang Chen's needs, and this kid came up and asked about the industries that came to make money quickly, and eighty percent of them needed money.

"I want to change to a house with my legs outstretched, and I'm getting knee inflammation cross-legged every day." Jiang Chen said.

"Okay, then I recommend that after you go in, you can do a good job, people go to high places, I am optimistic about you."

After Jiang Chen asked for the name of the company from Qin Wenzhi and the things they made, he was ready to study everything carefully, and then make up for the knowledge of artificial intelligence, so that he could quickly integrate into the work after joining the company.

If you want to work hard for her, she understands that it is not easy for him, so he should not let her be wronged.

After preparing all the materials, Jiang Chen wanted to collect the waste products on Chinese New Year's Eve, and the enthusiastic aunt of the community called him, saying that she had left him a lot of cardboard boxes.

At the end of the year, many people go back to their hometowns, but there are a lot of people who buy things during the New Year, so a large number of cartons, bottles and other waste products are generated.

Jiang Chen drove from community to community, and he could always make a lot of money on the last day.

Shen Yunfei followed Jiang Chen to collect it, he is a native of Yanjing, but he is not a person who weighs a few houses, on the contrary, their family of three, his parents and him, have been living in a forty-square-meter house, yes, it is forty square meters, this house is in an alley, there is no possibility of demolition for the time being, and his parents don't want to sell it, so he lives in the school after going to school, and rents a house after graduation.

Anyway, it's okay to be idle, so I collect cartons and empty bottles with Jiang Chen.

Shen Yunfei was also fully armed, he thought he had to deal with the trash can, and the two handsome guys rummaged through the garbage on Chinese New Year's Eve, which was also exciting to think about.

However, as soon as Jiang Chen drove the car into the community, the aunts in the community rushed to tell each other.

"Little Jiang Handsome is here, everyone hurry up and bring the cartons and bottles."

Then, they just had to stand in front of the car and wait, and the aunts would all deliver their things, as if they had been saved for him.

Shen Yunfei also didn't expect that good-looking people would be treated better than ordinary people even when they collected garbage!

You must know that in the community, there are cartons and bottles, which are the lifeblood of the uncles and aunts, and they are all saved for Jiang Chen, which shows the power of beauty, how corrosive it is!

He thinks that singing is better than collecting scrap, standing here without doing anything, just filling a car and selling it directly for money, which is really much less energy-saving than singing.

On the way to sell scrap, Shen Yunfei said: "Brother, I will be able to mix with you in the future." ”

"I'm going to work after the New Year, Professor Qin introduced me to a job, if you are really interested, I will give you the phone number of the aunts, and you can accept it in the future."

"Why did you suddenly remember to ask Professor Qin to introduce you to a job, and you will be an elite in the future?"

"What would you do if Xiaoxiao married you?" Jiang Chen asked.

"She's not going to marry me, she's a student now, she hasn't graduated yet, and she can't work after graduation? It's hard to say what will happen then? ”

"And what if she wants to marry you?"

"I really haven't thought about it, my old house is forty square meters anyway, she definitely doesn't want to live with my parents, I can't afford to buy a house, I saved some money and want to make a bar, opening a bar is my dream."

"No, should you and Lu Mingqiao get married?" Shen Yunfei reacted.

"I can't let her live with me in a nursing home."

"Okay, you can brother! I think she deserves a change. ”

After selling the scrap, Jiang Chen sent Lu Mingqiao a red envelope of 520, and on Chinese New Year's Eve, he gave her a new year money.

Later, when he has the ability, he will give her more of what she wants.

**

Today is Chinese New Year's Eve, and Lu Mingqiao and Lu Mingxuan clean the house together in the morning.

Thinking of his entrepreneurship, he asked, "How many of you are starting a business, what are you going to do?" ”

"We do post-production, peripherals."

"Movies?" Now that the actors' salaries are limited, TV is limited to entertainment, and many film companies can't hold on, are they still rushing to do peripherals? Can that be done? It sounds like a taken for granted.

"Do you know about movies? There are very few movies that can be released now, and the industry is not in a good mood. ”

"Sister, you don't understand this, the more recession, it means that this thing can be done, the more you look at the hot industry, that's the thunder, you think about the current recession, can you always be sluggish? People can't do without movies, this is a spiritual need, and sooner or later it will prosper, we are established now, and when the film and television industry recovers, who will not look for us when the time comes? ”

"And success is defined in science, to do the opposite, when no one does it, you do it, the chance of success will be greater."

"Where is the definition of success written in the literature of the stall? Can you use your brain? "Before I did a single thing, I became obsessed with success.

"Successful people also said that they should give up the first ten entrepreneurial projects you can think of, and the eleventh is what they can do, and the eleventh thing that comes to my mind is a movie."

"Hmph, I just sound like it's nonsense, pulling my hair to go to the sky." Lu Mingqiao twisted a rag and began to wipe the glass.

"You don't understand the matter of starting a business, and it's useless to tell you!" The old lady always hit him, and Lu Mingxuan didn't bother to say it.

"I don't understand? Do you know what procedures are required to start a company? Do you understand the structure of the company? Where's the drive? Don't tell me you're driving in Xiaopo County! All the first-line directors and stars gather in Yanjing, do you have the money to open a company in Yanjing? Can I receive business? If you can't get the business, how many months can you last? ”

"I think you're just full of food and nothing to do, so you don't have to take money from your family, the family's savings are for your parents' emergency and daily needs."

"Dad agreed, you can't care!" Lu Mingxuan retorted.

Lu Mingqiao was also angry when she heard this, she threw the rag into the basin, splashed the water, and said: "300,000, save 10,000 a month, and you have to save for three years, and now you can't even find a job with a salary of 10,000 yuan a month!" ”

"Maybe I'm not fit for work, but I'm fit to start a business?"

"You're pretty much a loser!"

"The most valuable thing about the boss is not skills, but thinking?"

"Your thinking is so awesome, don't ask your family for money!"

"Xiao Xuan, if he wants to try, let him try." At this time, Lu's father came back and heard the two sisters and brothers arguing.

"It's obviously a matter of uncertainties, is he earning a penny now? Just take 300,000 out? ”

"He's a college student, and he only gives more than 3,000 jobs a month, so if you don't want to go, don't go, you can do it yourself." Father Lu said.

The old father is really a double standard, isn't she also a college student?

"If I were him, I would also do it with a salary of more than 3,000 yuan, and then pick up waste and deliver it to me in my spare time, and save the money I need to start my own business before starting a business! Instead of reaching out and asking for it! ”

"Sister, you're too much! I'm a college student, and you actually said that I should pick up garbage and deliver it? Who did that? ”

"What? You still don't look down on this job? Do you think starting a business is easier than doing this? Starting a business is much harder than this, it's not just going to be the boss with Erlang's legs crossed! ”

"I don't fight with you, anyway, only the kind of uneducated, stupid and stupid people go to engage in low-end labor!" Lu Mingxuan said, how can he do this as a bachelor's graduate?

"Who do you say is uneducated? Who is stupid and stupid? Are you a great young master? Lu Mingqiao didn't know why, when he heard his brother say that he was uneducated and stupid, he felt that he was talking about Jiang Chen, so he picked up the basin of water to wipe the glass and splashed him.

"You're enough!" Father Lu stopped Lu Mingqiao.

"I will make up the money for his business by smashing the pot and selling iron, and I won't let you give a point! You don't have to be angry with him! ”

Lu Mingqiao threw the basin on the ground, and the old father thought that she was afraid of paying money, so he prevented his younger brother from starting a business.

"If he wants to become an immortal, do you still have to give him alchemy? Can't we consider reality from the perspective of reality? ”

"Don't worry about him, take care of yourself, and strive to get married this year, and I will be Amitabha."

Alas, it turned out that the fact that she was not married was more serious and unreliable than his brother's entrepreneurship.

"I went to Ji Xiao's house, and he said you also talked about one?" Father Lu asked.

"What are you doing in his house? Do I have to marry him? What tongue does he chew? ”

"The boy you're looking for is younger than you, doesn't have a serious job, and is said to be not a serious person."

"More serious than him!" He doesn't know how to be ashamed of the bad things he did, and he still has the face to say it to others?

"Do you still know how old you are? You're almost thirty! How to do such an unreliable thing? I don't know the bottom line of the people I know outside, and I found someone who doesn't even have a serious job, do you want to me off? ”

"Have you ever seen someone else? Would you rather listen to someone else's nonsense than know it yourself? Or do you believe that Ji Xiao does not believe me? ”

"I don't need to know if he's good or not, I think Ji Xiao is very good, close to our house, and has a serious job."

"So if there is a problem with character, can it be ignored?" Lu Mingqiao felt that he was trembling with anger.

She never thought that her father could force her to marry to this extent, and she would press her head to let her be a scumbag like Ji Xiao.

What is the difference between this and persuading the victim of domestic violence not to divorce?

"You go to Ji Xiao's house for a while, his family has prepared dishes, let him apologize to you, it's a big deal not to go to Yanjing in the future, you are all developing at home, what else can the two of you do together?"

"I'm not going."

"If you don't go, you have to go, this time I can't let you!"

"If you force me, I'll leave."

After living for 28 years and arguing with her father countless times, she never had the idea of running away from home, but this time, she felt that her anger seemed to have reached its peak, and her heart was cold.

"Dad, what are you doing here? My sister doesn't have to be with someone like that. Lu Mingxuan persuaded.

"It's none of your business, you don't care!"

Lu Mingqiao turned her head and went into the house, she rolled up her clothes haphazardly, and stuffed them into the suitcase, and her hands were shaking with anger and trembling.

She worked hard to get out of the exam, worked hard to make money, and in the end, she was forced to marry a scumbag?

Or was he forced to marry by his own father?

"Sister, what are you doing? Where do you pack your things for the Chinese New Year? Lu Mingxuan chased in.

"Let her go! If you go, don't come back! ”

Lu Mingqiao dragged the box and walked out of the gate, and if he didn't come back, he wouldn't come back.

"Sister!" Lu Mingxuan dragged the box, trying to stop Lu Mingqiao.

"Can you stop pushing me?" Lu Mingqiao broke down emotionally and shouted roaringly.

Lu Mingxuan scattered the box, and Lu Mingqiao carried it and went out of the house.

The village is no longer open to traffic, and she is going to walk to the county seat with her suitcase.

After the snow, the road is not so dusty, and as far as the eye can see, there are large fields on both sides of the road, and the fields are wheat sown after the autumn harvest, but the wheat seedlings are very short, dark green, and they will grow vigorously in the spring after the end of the year.

Some families have already started setting off firecrackers, and this year's Chinese New Year's Eve is really unusual.

When he was about to reach the head of the village, Lu Mingxuan rode a tram over.

"I'll take you to the county station."

After thinking about it, Lu Mingxuan sat in the back seat.

"Don't blame our father, he takes care of our mother all day long, treats patients for a long time, and has a very short temper."

"Especially if you are not married, I have reached the age when I should marry a daughter-in-law, neither of us has solved the marriage matter, he is anxious, in fact, the intention is good, I just want to watch you get married, every time you send money to the family, he also says, your sister is not a matter of drifting like this, and if it goes on like this, it will delay the daughter, and my mother has become like this, he blames himself very much, and he is also afraid of becoming a burden to us, but he will not express it well, so he will only quarrel, and he is also bitter in his heart."

"After I return to Yanjing, you can do more work at home and help him share some burdens." Quarrel after quarrel, but the old father is so old after all, she is afraid that he will be angry again.

"Remember to call me if you have anything." Lu Mingqiao admonished.

"Then you have to leave on Chinese New Year's Eve?" Lu Mingxuan asked.

"Well, I think my dad and I need to be calm."

"But it's true that our dad is wrong to let you talk to Ji Xiao about this, I'll talk about him when I go back."

Lu Mingqiao sat in the back seat of the car and cried silently, his younger brother is sometimes quite sensible.

Family members are such an existence that dislikes each other but can't let go.

"Okay sister, take care of yourself, and your temper has to change, you are the same as our father, you are also very irritable."

Lu Mingqiao thought, she is not irritable, she works and lives outside, and no one has said that she is irritable.

However, with people outside, it's just a general friendship, just say a few more words if you can speak, and simply don't talk if you can't, where is the use of revealing your true temperament?

The dark night was filled with fireworks.

Lu Mingqiao got on the bus to the city, and then took the high-speed train to Yanjing after waiting in the city.

Looking at the fireworks outside the car window, after tonight, tomorrow will be the new year.

Flipping through the mobile phone, there was a message from Jiang Chen.

He transferred 520 to her.

"Sister, happy Chinese New Year's Eve, give you the money for the New Year."

Lu Mingqiao clicked to collect the payment, she had just finished ordering, and Jiang Chen called the video over.

After the video was connected, Jiang Chen saw that Lu Mingqiao's eyes were red and his face was haggard.

"Sister, what's wrong with you? How are you in the car? ”

"I have some things that I need to come back to."

"What's going on?"

"Don't ask, I'm fine." After Lu Mingqiao finished speaking, she hung up the video, she couldn't say it anymore, she was afraid that she would cry later, she was really annoying, she was not a crying person, she was full of confidence and a strong woman who killed decisively, why did she cry so much now?

Jiang Chen picked up the car keys, put on his clothes and went out.

"Xiaochen, where are you going?" I was going to have a Chinese New Year's Eve dinner.

"I'll pick up Mingjo."

From the county seat to the city, it is a two-hour drive, because it is night, the speed is slower.

When I arrived in the city, it was almost nine o'clock.

It seems that as soon as she arrived in the city, Lu Mingqiao felt that her mood was not so depressed, no one here knew her, no one urged her, and no one cared about what she was doing when she went out on Chinese New Year's Eve.

There is freedom in the city.

She pulled her suitcase out of the station, stood at the exit of the station, and was about to call a car to the train station, when she looked down and was using her mobile phone to contact the vehicle, a pair of slender hands grabbed her arm.

She still looked very thin in the crowd, and she didn't have an aura of two meters eight, only a sense of loneliness exuded from her body.

It turns out that after liking someone, you can really find her at a glance in the crowd,

Lu Mingqiao raised his eyes and saw that it was actually her big boy!

For a moment, she felt that her eyes were spent, how could Jiang Chen be here?

"Sister hasn't known me since she went back for two days?"

"Why are you here?"

"I'll pick you up."

Then Lu Mingqiao suddenly felt that her feet left the ground and rose into the air, and she was picked up by Jiang Chen with one hand!

He held her in one hand and pulled the box in the other, and walked firmly to the small truck where he collected the waste.

For the first time in his life, Lu Mingqiao felt the power of manhood, and he could actually hold her with one hand?!
