Chapter Twenty-Nine: The Dragon and the Phoenix Descend

Half a year has passed, and Garman has shown a thriving prosperity. However, at this time, Kang's mother, who had regained her ability to take care of herself, accidentally fell while taking a bath in the bathroom, fainted, and passed away after being rescued. After dealing with Kang's mother's funeral, Du Manlin faced childbirth again, and the affairs of the family and the company were almost pressed on the shoulders of Kang Jiawei alone.

Kang Jiaying, who had been promoted to a junior college, saw that there was no one to take care of her sister-in-law Du Manlin, who was about to give birth, so she asked her brother Kang Jiawei to withdraw from school, but was scolded by Kang Jiawei.

After graduating from junior high school, Du Manlang was not admitted to high school, and Du's mother saw that he was tall and mighty and turned 18 years old. So, send him to learn to drive. A few days before Kang's mother died, she passed the test and got her driver's license. Du Mu has privately told Du Manlin several times that she wants to arrange Du Manlang to drive in the company. But Du Manlin said that she had just come of age, and she was immature and inexperienced in all aspects, so she was not suitable for driving at the moment. In fact, Du Manlin did not agree with Du Manlang driving, mainly from a safety point of view, she believed that driving was a dangerous profession, and in case of an accident, she would not be able to face her parents.

However, Du's mother and daughter have completely different views, she believes that driving is the ideal career for boys; As soon as the horn sounded, there were ten thousand taels of gold; As long as the money comes more, the grievances are dangerous, and the value is worth. Therefore, she and Du's father bought a four-door and six-seat Jiangling container car for Du Manlang, and then she carried Du Manlin behind her back and asked Kang Jiawei to ask Manlang to run transportation for Jiaman Company. The cars are all bought, can Kang Jiawei refuse? Apparently not. In this way, Du Manlang became a truck driver for Garman. Later, after Du Manlin learned about this, she scolded Kang Jiawei, and also played Du Mu's little temper, deliberately avoiding ignoring Du Mu. Du's mother is an old businessman and well-informed, how can she not cope with Du Manlin's little temper. On the third day after Du Manlang joined the company, Du's mother and Du's father rented the fish stall in the farmers' market that they had run for most of their lives to someone else, and then came to Jiaman Company with their covers. As soon as he entered the company's gate, he bumped into Kang Jiawei and Du Manlang.

"Mom, Dad, Man Lin and I look forward to the stars and the moon every day, but I didn't expect to inadvertently look forward to the two of us today." Kang Jiawei smiled brightly, hurriedly took the cover from Du's father's hand, and handed it to Du Manlang, "Parents, there is no need to bring this to your company and daughter's house, right?" ”

"Mom, this is your idea, Dad definitely doesn't have this idea. You see, it's like escaping from the famine. Du Manlang danced the cover in his hand and said angrily.

"Mom is afraid of life when she sleeps, and she doesn't lose sleep at night with a bedding cover, and she sleeps soundly." Du Mu explained.

"Mom, you just bring the pots and chopsticks together, don't be anorexic for three meals, and eat deliciously." Du Manlang joked.

Du's mother has a strong sense of elders, and she will never allow her juniors to behave frivolously in her words and deeds. Therefore, as soon as Du Manlang's words fell, she angrily picked up a small stone from the ground and threw it at him: "It's against you, the working class has only been a few days, and the wings are stiff, no big or small teasing the old lady, see how I clean you up." ”

Du Manlang hugged the bedding and avoided the stones.

Kang Jiawei smiled: "Mom, Manlang is a little naughty, don't be serious with him, he is amusing you." Let's go, I'll accompany you and Dad to see Manlin. ”

Father Du asked: "Man Lin is not resting at home?" ”

Kang Jiawei shook his head: "She has a strong sense of responsibility, how can I persuade her that she just doesn't rest, and she is still working in the office!" ”

Du Mu shook off her steps and left: "It's not all for you that she's working so hard." ”

When passing by the gate of the office, Du Mu just looked at the door, did not go in, and walked directly to the dormitory area. As he walked, he said, "Don't tell Manlin first, she's still angry with me about Manlang!" Your dad and I will go straight to the house, and when you come back from work, I will surprise you. ”

After Kang's mother died, Kang Jiawei moved his family from the shantytown in the county town to the suite building in the company's dormitory area. The suite building has a total of six floors, with three bedrooms, two living rooms, two bathrooms and one kitchen. The Kang family lives on the second floor, the first floor is specially reserved for the Du family by Du Manlin, and the third to sixth floors are the special housing for the company's managers and engineers.

After class at twelve o'clock, Du Manlin returned to the dormitory with a big belly accompanied by Kang Jiawei and Du Manlang. As soon as you enter the living room, a strong fragrance wafts through your nose.

"Mom, is Mom here?" Du Manlin looked surprised and hurried towards the restaurant.

In the dining room, a fruit box cake is placed on a large round table. Along the perimeter of the cake are all kinds of delicacies that Du Mu has just cooked.

Du Manlang and Kang Jiawei couldn't help but be greedy, and used their hands as chopsticks to gobble up.

Du Manlin shouted at the kitchen: "Mom, Dad, are you here?" ”

Sure enough, Du's mother's voice floated out of the kitchen: "It's not me and your father, who wants to serve you?" ”

As soon as the words fell, Du's mother and Du's father came out of the kitchen one after another. Du Manlin threw herself into Du Mu's arms with excitement.

"Mom, I thought you didn't care about your daughter!"

"Silly boy, you're a piece of meat that fell off your mother's body. Now, you're about to drop a piece of flesh again, can I leave it alone? Your father and I have rented the fish stall to someone else, and from today onwards, your father and I will all listen to you and Jiawei, and the Kangdu family will be a whole piece from today onwards. ”

"Mom, what do you think of your daughter and son-in-law, how can you make you two old. As long as my parents can let me see it every day, my daughter will be satisfied. ”

"Really?" Du Mu gently rubbed the bridge of Du Manlin's towering nose, "Do you know what day it is?" Your birthday. Your dad made you a birthday cake, and I made you some of your favorite dishes. Let's go, it's over your birthday, and it's time to welcome your son. ”

However, just as Du Mu helped Du Manlin to approach the dining table, Du Manlin suddenly pressed her abdomen with both hands, and her body slowly squatted.

Du Mu grabbed her hard: "Man Lin, are you going to give birth?" ”

Du Manlin struggled and said, "I, my stomach hurts so much, my 、、、." ”

At this time, Du's father, Kang Jiawei, and Du Manlang hurriedly stepped forward and hugged Du Manlin tightly.

Du Mu smiled and shouted loudly: "It's going to be born, quickly, send it to the hospital." ”

The hospital is only seven or eight minutes away from Garman. As soon as he arrived at the hospital, the doctor saw his condition and ordered him to enter the delivery room immediately.

Du's mother, Du's father, Kang Jiawei, and Du Manlang waited anxiously outside the delivery room.

About an hour later, the baby girl's crying could be heard in the delivery room. Du Mu listened carefully: "Born, born, listen to the voice, it must be a daughter." ”

Du's father was very excited: "The daughter is good, the daughter is filial, and she is more worry-free than her son!" ”

Du Manlang smiled with a hippie face: "Dad, don't worry, I will give you a daughter and granddaughter when the time comes, and see who will pass on your ancestry." ”

Du's mother turned around and slapped him hard: "It is a blessing to have both children and daughters." Manlang, you remember to me that your father and I have to hold both our grandson and our granddaughter, and we can't do any without either. ”

At this time, Kang Jiawei, who was leaning against the crack in the door and listening to the movement in the delivery room, gently shushed and said, "The first is the cry of the baby girl, and this is the cry of the baby boy." Mom, Dad, did Man Lin give birth to dragon and phoenix twins? ”

"Ah, what do you hear?" Du Mu put her ear against the crack in the door.

The door creaked open a hole, and then a nurse stuck her head out and smiled sweetly: "Congratulations, congratulations, the mother has given birth to dragon and phoenix twins, and now the mother and baby are safe." ”

Kang Jiawei looked surprised, didn't believe his ears, and squeaked: "Nurse, please say it again." ”

The nurse repeated.

Kang Jiawei was a little carried away with joy, and took Du's mother's hand and entered the delivery room. An older doctor was dressing the baby as the baby cried and stopped. Du Manlin was still lying on the delivery bed, her eyes slightly closed, and a smile on her face.

Mother Du picked up one of the babies and looked left and right. After a while, he picked up another baby and looked around. After watching it for a while, he began to comment: "These two little things look quite similar." The eyes, nose, and mouth are like Dad, and the face is like Mom, and all the advantages have been inherited. ”

On the side of the delivery bed, Kang Jiawei stroked Du Manlin's hand, and the eyes and temples were grinding affectionately, and the doctors and nurses were envious when they saw it. Half an hour after giving birth, Du Manlin and a pair of children were transferred to the maternity inpatient ward and continued to be kept in the hospital for observation.

In the history of Tucheng, it is rare to give birth to twins, and it is even rarer to give birth to dragon and phoenix twins. As the saying goes, if good things don't go out, bad things spread thousands of miles, but in Tucheng on the contrary, good things spread thousands of miles, and bad things don't go out. Therefore, on the day Du Manlin gave birth to the dragon and phoenix twins, the news spread almost all over the city.

There is also a legend in Tucheng that the dragon and phoenix twins are the golden boy and jade girl sent to the mortal world by the Jade Emperor, and the woman who gave birth to this pair of golden boy and jade girl is either a Buddha or an immortal, and the ancients called it a living Buddha immortal body, which is extremely noble.

As a result, many Tucheng people came to the hospital with their admiration for the golden boy and the living Buddha immortal body, witnessed the dignity of the golden boy and jade girl, shared the dignity of the living Buddha immortal body, and prayed for their own fertility and blessings. For a time, the quiet hospital was full of people. In order not to affect the medical order, the hospital sent Du Manlin and her twin daughters back to Jiaman Company after soliciting the opinions of Kang Jiawei and others. In this way, Jiaman Company became a pilgrimage place for Tucheng people for a time. Seeing that the number of worshippers is increasing, the company seems to have become a Buddhist holy place on the surface. Kang Jiawei was afraid that this would affect Du Manlin's physical care and the company's reputation, so he discussed with Du Manlin how to deal with it.

Kang Jiawei proposed to let Du Manlin secretly go back to Du's house in the county seat to sit for "confinement", and then return to the company after the "confinement". Du Manlin disagreed and put forward her own opinion: "Don't the people of Tucheng worship the golden boy and the girl? Since everyone respects my children as the golden boy and jade girl, and respects me as the living Buddha immortal, why not use this influence to fix me and my children as the company's image ambassadors. In this way, I can predict that the company's development will reach the peak within a year. ”

Kang Jiawei was overjoyed, but then looked gloomy: "I think it's inappropriate to infiltrate people's belief in God into enterprise competition and enhance enterprise competitiveness." Obviously, this is an unfair competition practice. ”

Du Manlin disagreed: "How can it be said that it is unfair competition? What's wrong with God? God is nothing but a spiritual belief and sustenance for people. What I mean is to use the power of gods and immortals to promote the company's products, such as the Golden Boy Palace, the Jade Maiden Palace, etc., everyone must be interested, and at the same time can form their own characteristics and play their own brand. Therefore, this practice can be regarded as a propaganda strategy at best, and it does not fall short of unfair competition. ”

Kang Jiawei seemed to have an understanding, and nodded after a while: "Listening to you, I feel like the mouth is suddenly open." Manlin, try it as you say. I now seem to have a hunch that Garman is about to usher in a sunny spring and a fruitful autumn. ”

Du Manlin smiled pleasantly: "I hope the golden boy and girl can bring good luck to you and the company!" ”

In this way, Du Manlin not only did not avoid the worshippers, but on the day of the full moon, she took her twin daughters to run around the county in a car driven by Du Manlang. When the insiders saw that the golden boy and the jade girl and the living Buddha immortal body were coming, they hurriedly unloaded the work at hand and ran out of the house and store, prostrate and prayed. At the same time, Kangjia Weiju Company has made every effort to design and launch a series of decoration and building materials products for Golden Boy and Jade Girl. Soon, these products were favored by the common people and quickly occupied the market, and the supply exceeded demand. The company is developing rapidly.
