Chapter 225: Plan Ahead
After two more stops, the train got off the train with more than 100 people on board, and this is the seat of a township government, and there are several villages nearby.
Wang Weidong looked at the people who were far away outside the window and didn't retract his gaze for a long time.
At present, the Xiangyang Chemical Plant only has a military workshop and can still guarantee wages, the float glass factory has a high production cost, there is no way to compete with the new private enterprises, the radio factory is even more suspended, and the chemical plant squeezes out some money to pay the workers a little living expenses.
When he arrived in Harbin City, Wang Weidong returned to his parents' house.
He saw only Wang Haifu and Li Yufeng sitting lazily behind the counter of the store.
At five o'clock in the afternoon, the child was already out of school at this time, but Wang Weidong didn't see any of them.
Now his father-in-law, Lao Chen, runs a small store and lives with Chen Jihong and his grandson, while his parents live with their granddaughter Xiaoya.
Wang Weidong's son Xiaolong has just started school in the autumn and is in the same school as his sister Xiaoya.
"Where's the kid?" Wang Weidong asked.
"I must have gone to Lao Chen's house to play again, and I will buy a game console tomorrow!" Mother Li Yufeng said indignantly.
"That's not a game console, it's a computer learning machine! I can learn English and practice typing, and I can learn computers. Wang Haifu patiently corrected.
"I don't know that! I knew that now both children are obsessed with it and play games with that thing every day! I'll buy one tomorrow too, and let the two kids play here every day! Li Yufeng said.
As long as the two children are by Li Yufeng's side, she is satisfied, and she doesn't care about anything else.
A computer learning machine began to appear on the market, which could learn five strokes of typing, learn English words, and supposedly learn computer programs.
Today's parents are more and more willing to spend money for their children, and they must not let their children lose to others, so they have taken out hundreds or even thousands of dollars to buy this kind of computer learning machine for their children.
If you don't know English or a computer, how can you make your child excel in the future?
Wang Weidong cooked, then accompanied his parents to dinner, and then went to his father-in-law's house three or four hundred meters away.
Walking into the small shopping store, the whole family, including Xiaoya, was having dinner, and only Wang Weidong's son Xiaolong was playing games with a computer learning machine connected to the TV.
Seeing Wang Weidong coming back, the mother-in-law hurriedly took a bowl and served a bowl of rice to Wang Weidong.
Wang Weidong did not say that he had already eaten at his parents' side, but sat next to Chen Jihong and ate hard.
Xiaoya called uncle, and after Wang Weidong agreed, he yelled at his son, who didn't notice that he was still engrossed in the game when he came back: "Lu Ming! Dine! ”
At the beginning, Wang Weidong spent 100 yuan to ask Yao Qiming to give his son a good name, and Lu Ming was the name that Yao Qiming found in the Book of Poetry.
The boy was shocked by the loud sound, and then turned his head sharply and glared in the direction of the dinner table, but when he saw his fierce father, he suddenly appeared opposite him and stared at him.
Seeing that the person who yelled at him was the only person he feared in this world, the child immediately wilted, and he reluctantly turned around and walked to his side and sat down to eat.
"If the child is not hungry now, let him play for a while, and eat when he is hungry!" Lao Chen said dissatisfiedly.
Everyone understands the truth that children can't be pampered, but Wang Weidong sadly found that there was no way for the four old people not to be pampered!
"Have you finished your homework?" Wang Weidong asked the two children angrily.
Both children bowed their heads and did not answer, and it seemed that they had not finished writing.
"Write your homework as soon as you finish eating, and I'll be watching from the sidelines!" Wang Weidong said sharply.
Wang Weidong immediately felt that there were four unkind eyes staring at him, from the direction where his father-in-law and mother-in-law were sitting.
Wang Weidong pretended not to feel anything, stuffed a bowl of rice into his stomach and waited.
After eating, the two children silently took out the stationery box from their schoolbags and began to write their homework like mice seeing cats.
"How many days are you planning to stay at home this time?" Lao Chen asked.
"Two days," Wang Weidong replied.
Wang Weidong suddenly felt that his father-in-law was asking himself, and what this sentence meant was to let him, the person who scared his grandson, get out of here!
After the two children finished their homework, Wang Weidong sent Xiaoya back to her parents.
Walking on the road, Wang Weidong said to Xiaoya: "Xiaoya, you must study hard, be admitted to university in the future, don't let your parents, parents and uncle down!" Do you know how much effort it took to get you into such a good school? ”
Xiaoya nodded obediently.
"Don't play the game again, I'm going to put that thing away!" Wang Weidong said.
Sending Xiaoya home, Wang Weidong turned around and returned to his father-in-law's house.
Fortunately, seeing that his father was back, Xiaolong didn't dare to play the game anymore.
After a long absence, Wang Weidong and Chen Jihong snuggled together at night, and he decided to wait for the Vladivostok seaport to enter the freezing period and take Chen Jihong and the two of them out for a trip.
The next morning, the child Lao Chen sent his grandson to school, and when he returned, Wang Weidong sat opposite Comrade Chen and planned to have a long talk with his father-in-law.
"Dad, did you send my eldest brother to school when he was a child?" Wang Weidong asked.
"No, it wasn't delivered for a day, and on the first day of the first grade, I also asked him to carry his schoolbag on his back. At that time, how could any parent send their children to school? Old Chen replied.
"Don't send it in the future, let Xiaoya take him with him when he passes by." Wang Weidong said.
"Actually, I understand what you mean, children can't be pampered. But when the child was coquettish and cried, I relented. I didn't go to see him off, and I was restless all day watching him walk into school, always worried that something would happen to him on the road. Lao Chen said.
"You didn't worry about your children back then, and now you don't need to worry about your grandchildren, it's really good for them to let them grow up and be productive!" Wang Weidong persuaded.
Lao Chen said with a smile: "I'm old, cheap." When you're my age, you'll know how I'm feeling right now. ”
"The bastard son gave birth to a bastard grandson, I have to make them angry to death!" Wang Weidong said.
Before Wang Weidong left home the next day, he deliberately locked the computer learning machine.
He got on the train and rushed to the capital to meet Song Yu and Ou Xiaoyang.
Both Song Yu and Ou Xiaoyang drove to the train station to pick him up.
Song Yu drove a Jetta, and while driving, he said to Wang Weidong: "My Chrysler was sent for repair, so I borrowed a friend's car!" Or Lao De has a long-term vision, as far as they are willing to build a car factory here with us, car factories in other countries are shrinking, if it weren't for this, buddy, I would have driven a Rolls-Royce now! ”
In the past few years, everyone has made a lot of money, and now Song Yu is in high spirits and has nothing to do!
