Chapter 257: Back to the Countryside

The old house in the countryside here, as the New Year approaches, almost every day, people come back from the north and south of the world.

Most people who go to the city to work hard will choose to take root in the urban area of Shanghai, or because of the fierce competition, they are forced to go to other cities in China to drift.

But at the end of the year, I still have to go home.

Especially near Chinese New Year's Eve, the city of Shanghai seems to have gradually reduced the prosperous atmosphere of the past, especially the taste of the year.

On the contrary, in this township area, the children ran through the streets and alleys, went to the river to fry fish, and blew up their own water tank with firecrackers, and then they were scolded and thrown out, laughing and shouting, and fled to the next house, and then slipped out in groups with the children of the next door.

Early in the morning, Xu Yi drove his wife Bi Wenli and daughter Xu Suisui, plus Xu Jian and Sun Wanhui, all the way to the countryside.

parked the car in the yard, and when I got out of the car, I saw Xu Lisong basking in the sun in the yard, and Huang Xiuzhen watching TV in the house.

"Yo, you're back?" Xu Lisong saw a few people getting out of the car, and his eyes finally had more energy, and it didn't seem so cold in winter.

Only after seeing these people in the car, he immediately frowned and asked, "What about Xingxing and Nian?" Why just a few of you?"

"They'll come in the afternoon." Xu Jian walked in front and explained to the old man who was a little dissatisfied, "Xu Xing still has something to do over there, so I drove him in the afternoon of Nian Nian."

"Oh, that's right." Xu Li nodded loosely, he had already stood up from the chair, and then sat back again, too lazy to greet them, until Xu Suisui came from behind, he asked with a smile again, "Sui Sui is in junior high school this year, how do you feel?"

"Hello Grandpa." Xu Suisui said obediently, "It's okay in junior high school, but it's more strict."

I don't know if I've grown up a bit, when I was still in elementary school more than half a year ago, Xu Suisui was still a very naughty child.

As a result, after half a year of junior high school, people suddenly became a little different.

If I had to use one word to describe it, it would probably be that she has become a little more ladylike, and she is no longer babbling like before.

It seems that people have grown a lot all of a sudden.

If it was before, it is estimated that I heard that Xu Xing would not follow this morning, and Xu Niannian would have to stay there and wait for Xu Xing, Xu Suisui would have clamored to wait for Xu Xing together.

"Dad, how are you doing?" Xu Yi followed behind to the door of the house, and didn't forget to ask about the situation, "You just had surgery before, how do you feel now?"

"Okay, don't worry about it, I went to the town with your mother yesterday to buy New Year's goods, and it's okay to carry two big bags of things." Xu Lisong waved his hand, and then said, "This year is still the old rule, in the past two days, you go and walk around your relatives and send New Year's goods, don't forget."

"Got it." Xu Yi nodded in response, and several mermaids rushed in and walked into the house.

"At noon, we will show our hands, and you mothers and daughters will watch TV first." After Xu Jian walked into the house, he walked towards the kitchen, and said while rolling up his sleeves, "Xu Yi, come together."

"Here we are."

The two big men entered the kitchen, and Bi Wenli and Sun Wanhui sat on the sofa in the living room and watched TV with Huang Xiuzhen.

When she looks, the woman has to make small talk.

"Your clothing company is doing a lot of business now, isn't it?" Bi Wenli usually can't see Sun Wanhui and Xu Jian, since the clothing company is on the right track, these two people basically go out early and return late, and Bi Wenli, who plays mahjong every day, can't go together.

But from Xu Yi's mouth, Bi Wenli still learned a little about Sun Wanhui's clothing company, which seemed to be very hot.

"Not bad, indeed." When Sun Wanhui talked about this, a happy smile appeared on her face, "Since I signed a contract with a foundry, now after deducting the company's operating costs every month, I can have a net profit of two or three hundred thousand."

The relationship between the two families is no different from that of a family, and Sun Wanhui will say this in front of Bi Wenli.

If it's another relative

When a friend asked, she probably would only say that it was a small business and made hard-earned money.

Bi Wenli covered her mouth and exclaimed slightly, she heard Xu Yi say that Sun Wanhui was doing a good job here, and she thought that it would be tens of thousands of dollars per month at most.

As a result, you told me that it was two or three hundred thousand net profits?

If you include the cost, how can you double the sales in a month, right?

Sun Wanhui's current clothing company is not large, there are about 20 employees in the company, and the main job is to produce targeted design drawings to chase the market trend, and the salary cost alone has to be more than 100,000 per month.

Coupled with the company's site rental, utilities and other miscellaneous things, as well as the cost price of the production of clothes themselves, it is indeed a large number.

"You're amazing." Bi Wenli couldn't help but say, "I don't have to do anything else in the future, and I will inherit the family business directly when I come back."

"Don't mention him......" Sun Wanhui's face suddenly flashed with embarrassment when she said this, "He has just graduated as a freshman, and he graduated early, so at that time, we can still do well in this business."

"That's right." Bi Wenli nodded, and then couldn't help but say, "Eh, I was born as a design major every year, so don't your clothing companies have to design clothes?" When the time comes, it's okay to let her help every year, so that she can accumulate some experience."

"That's easy to say." Sun Wanhui smiled and nodded.

Although the family knew that Xu Niannian was now looking for a job, they didn't know what they were doing, they only knew that it was also design, and the family thought it was an internship arranged by the school, so they didn't ask much.

Only Xu Yi knows what the actual situation is, Bi Wenli, who is a mother, is still kept in the dark, and Sun Wanhui's side is even more unclear.

However, I heard that Sun Wanhui and their family have already soared, although Bi Wenli is a little envious in her heart, she is not so jealous.

Since she married Xu Yi, she has lived the life of a full-time housewife, and she was really busy when her two children were young.

Now that the two children have grown up, especially Xu Suisui also went to junior high school and started to live in school, her current life is very dull.

Take care of the supermarket every day, arrange the rest of the time by yourself, go out with the little sister to play mahjong, sing and drink tea, it is already a very comfortable retirement day.

No matter how much money you make, you have to spend it, right?

She is living a nourishing life now, and she doesn't think about so many things that she doesn't have.

What I have to worry about in the future is just the marriage of my two daughters.

-----------------

There was a chat, but the kitchen was quiet.

Xu Jian and Xu Yi stayed in the kitchen, each doing their own thing, each of them prepared three dishes, and they didn't have to cook too sumptuous at noon, so the dishes on such a table were almost the same.

"How's it going? Are you still used to it in the new factory?" Xu Yi asked.

"Not bad." Xu Jian nodded and smiled, "It's better than the original."

"You haven't told your dad about this, have you?"

"What does it matter?" Xu Jian pouted, "How long has he been away from the factory, it turns out that the senior management of the factory has basically changed all over again, there are few familiar faces, just leave, there is nothing to be nostalgic about."

"That's just as well." Xu Yi nodded, and he also knew Xu Jian's current situation.

After all, he was the first in the family to know about Xu Xing's kid, and he also became the leader of an exclusive headhunting company, specializing in delivering talents for the stars.

So Xu Yi also knew a lot of details from Xu Xing's side, including why Mr. Pei of Shenglan International would invest in a little-known start-up clothing company.

It is not an exaggeration to say that Xu Jian and Sun Wanhui have touched their son's light.

It's just that at this time, the two of them probably don't know how rebellious their son is.

"What about you? How's your work going?" Xu Jian asked casually.

"I resigned." Xu Yi thought about it and planned to pave the way for Xu Xing's kid.

"What's that?" Xu Jian was stunned for a moment, and then asked, "Resign?" You're not over there at a certain level

Well done? Did you resign on your own initiative?"

"That's right." Xu Yi laughed, "I am now cooperating with people and opening a headhunting company, which specializes in helping people search for talents, especially Internet-related ones."

"You know, I've been in this business for a lot of years, and I've kind of built up a lot of contacts."

"Changing jobs now to do this is a good fit for me now."

Xu Jian thought for a moment and then nodded slowly, and then asked, "When did you do this?" Why didn't you tell us? Does Wenli know?"

"It's only for these two months."

Xu Yi only secretly helped Xu Xing poach people before, and he was still working at a certain time.

Later, there were more people to poach, and there were not many high-level talents who were easier to poach internally, so Xu Yi officially resigned and came out to follow his nephew.

"I'm going to tell you about it during the New Year, and Wenli doesn't know it yet." Xu Yi added, "Let's talk about it when the Chinese New Year comes together, I can earn more now than before, and it can be regarded as a good fortune."

"Then I'll have to say something." Xu Jian thought of what his little cub had done, and couldn't help but say, "Let's talk about it when everyone is together."

"Is this still selling to me?" Xu Yi smiled and said, "Is the position in the factory about to be promoted?"

"Huh." Xu Jian smiled and just said, "Guess?"

Who would have guessed that his son casually started a business, and as a result, he made a net worth of hundreds of millions.

I don't think his brother will believe it.

The brothers chatted in the kitchen while cooking, each with their own thoughts.

-----------------

"Tonight, the cold air in Shanghai is coming, experts predict that it may usher in the first snow of the year in Shanghai, please pay attention to keep warm, travel beware."

In the car, the bored Xu Niannian drove the car, turned on the radio station in the car, and heard the weather forecast being broadcast inside.

"It doesn't look like it's going to snow." Xu Niannian looked up while waiting for the traffic light, although it was cloudy, he could still see the blue sky, "Is this expert okay?"

"It makes no difference if it doesn't snow, drive your car." Xu Xing leaned back in the chair, closed his eyes and took a nap, and said casually.

"You can have a snowball fight when it snows, you idiot." Xu Niannian glanced at him.

"You're naïve." Xu Xing yawned, "You have to shovel snow when it snows, otherwise it will be enough to drive in the countryside in that road condition."

"You're really not romantic." Xu Niannian said with a disgusted face, "Can you think of something good?"

"You can stuff artillery into the snowdrift." Xu Xing said, "This is fun."

"Hey, I just said I was naïve." Xu Niannian pursed his lips, "I don't know who is naïve."

The two of them talked all the way to the countryside, successfully found the yard of their grandfather's house, and parked the car in it.

Everyone in the house who had already had lunch had already cleaned up the table, Xu Jian and Xu Yi took their respective wives and went out with large bags and small bags, and they had already gone to visit their relatives.

Now only Xu Lisong and Huang Xiuzhen are left in the house, and Xu Suisui is still in his room on the second floor.

"Hello grandparents!"

Xu Xing was the first to walk into the house, and greeted his grandparents with a smile.

When the two old men saw the two children walk in, they suddenly smiled.

Huang Xiuzhen got up to get the fruit and brought it to the two of them: "Come, eat the fruit."

"What about my dad?" Xu Xing asked while pulling Xu Niannian to sit on the sofa while looking around.

"Went to your second grandfather's house." Xu Lisong said as he drank tea.

He is the eldest in the family, and in addition to two younger brothers, they are Xu Xing's second grandfather and third grandfather, and their home is not far from the north, and they are also scattered.

Every time there is a New Year's holiday, Xu Jian and Xu Yi have to visit on behalf of their parents, which is already a habit.

"How?"

"Upstairs by yourself

Why don't you go and see it?"

"Okay."

Xu Xing patted his ass and got up, and Xu Niannian also got up to follow.

"You just stay here and wait, I'll call her down to play." Xu Xing pushed her back onto the sofa and walked towards the stairs.

After coming upstairs, Xu Xing knocked on the only closed door and said inside, "Is Sui Sui here? I opened the door and came in."

"Brother Xu Xing?" Xu Suisui heard Xu Xing's voice, and his tone was obviously happy, "Come in."

Xu Xing pushed open the door, glanced inside, and saw that this Nizi was holding a mobile phone, and he didn't know what he was messing with.

After walking in, I took a closer look, only to realize that I was looking at QQ space.

Tut...... Xu Xing smacked his lips, thinking that in the young people, it is really a long way to go to capture the user habits of this area.

After all, Xu Suisui's friends on WeChat are basically older than him, especially family relatives, if he posts any circle of friends, he will either be seen by his family or blocked.

It's not as convenient as QQ space, and QQ is full of classmates and friends, so it will be more comfortable to post dynamics.

Maybe the WeChat circle of friends just posted a dynamic of doing homework seriously, and the QQ space simultaneously sent out a food nine-square grid.

To put it bluntly, the influence of the relationship chain permeates it.

The network of users in a social software determines how they will use the social software.

"Let's go, let's go out and play the cannon fight." Xu Xing patted her head and said, "You can't be a plaything."

"Isn't playing with artillery a plaything?"

"That's better than playing QQ space." Xu Xing said confidently, "If you play with the circle of friends, then I won't talk about you."

Xu Suisui lay on the bed and blinked, not understanding what Brother Xu Xing's discrimination was for no reason.
