Chapter 43: Let's Face Together

After lunch that day, Chen Xiang sat in the office and called Wang Yan again, but Wang Yan was unwilling, she said: "The child is too young, I can't take it alone when I go over there." ”

Chen Xiang said: "At home, didn't you bring it too?" How much did his grandmother help him? You came here and brought it by yourself. ”

Wang Yan feels that she can tutor Rongrong at home, although Rongrong has adapted to her mother's absence, she has studied psychology, and she thinks that she is always good to her children when she is by Rongrong's side. But she also knows that it is not good for husband and wife to be separated for a long time. was conflicting in his heart, and Chen Xiang said again: "Wife, come here, I miss you." “

"Why do you have to let me go?" Wang Yan was a little shaken by Chen Xiang's repeated phone calls every day, but she still wanted to figure it out and then decide.

"You'd better come here. Let's do it together. Chen Xiang said in a sluggish tone: "You are not around, I have no energy." ”

"I went, you're more stressed. Rongrong still has to spend money at home, I'm here, at least earn money to block our mother's three. Wang Yan insisted.

"You come over and help me keep an eye on the factory, and I'll go out and run the list. I'm not here, they're not doing their job, and I can't help it. Chen Xiang saw that no matter how much persuasion was useless, he had to tell the truth about his concerns.

Chen Xiang's reason really "hit the nail on the head", only to hear Wang Yan loosen his mouth and say: "Then if I go, you will urinate the child at night!" “

"Okay, no problem, I'll pee for the baby." Chen Xiang replied with a smile. Without waiting for Wang Yan to answer, Chen Xiang hurriedly asked "while the iron is hot": "Wife, when are you coming?" You go get your tickets today. ”

"The child is so young that I can't take her on the train alone."

"Then I'll go back and pick you up." Chen Xiang raised his eyebrows. After hanging up the phone, Chen Xiang hurriedly went to the nearby ticket office to buy a ticket for the night, and when he booked the ticket, a thought passed through his heart: "Wang Yan has become more and more rational, no matter how much she grinds her, she doesn't want to come." As soon as she said that, let her come to help keep an eye on the factory, she was in a hurry. ”

The ticket was at seven o'clock in the evening, and after Chen Xiang arrived at the factory, he explained a few words to his father and Tian Xiaobing, and hurried to the station. In this way, Chen Xiang went home to pick up Wang Yan and his youngest daughter Xiaomu to Beijing, and began their arduous and tortuous entrepreneurial career.

When Wang Yan arrived in Beijing, Chen Xiang's father had already arrived in Beijing. The population in the factory is not as small as Chen Xiang said. Three people work, and all three eat in the factory.

Chen Xiang pushed open the factory gate, Wang Yan saw a lively family catching sparrows, Yaoyao and her daughter-in-law were taking care of the child, seeing Wang Yan, Chen Feng pulled her high and sharp voice and said: "Oh, my little sister-in-law, how did you get it, black and thin, much older, almost like me!" “

When Wang Yan heard this, she glanced at the wrinkles on Chen Feng's forehead and eyes, and thought, "How can I be as old as you!" But he said with a smile: "Well, there is a lot of milk, and the nutrients are absorbed by the child, and he has not gained weight." “

"This little guy is really white, looks like our family, and is good-looking." Chen Feng walked over, opened the thin blanket wrapped around the child with his hand, and said.

"Really, the little guy looks so white." Yaoyao's daughter-in-law also came over to see it.

"My sister-in-law is tired of riding in the car, let's go to the house first." Tian Xiaobing is very good at talking.

"Well, I'm really tired, I'll go to the meeting first." Wang Yan turned around and asked Chen Xiang, "Where is the dormitory?" “

"This way." Chen Xiang said, leading Wang Yan into the house, which is a small dormitory of less than five square meters, in addition to the bed, there is a desk with a computer, and a black office chair with broken skin is placed in front of the table. Wang Yan's feeling suddenly returned to the time when they first met, when the hut rented by Chen Xiang was as simple as the dormitory now.

"Wife, you will rest first." Chen Xiang opened the quilt and let Wang Yan rest.

"Chen Feng said that I am as old as her, really?" Wang Yan was still worried about Chen Feng's words when she first entered the door.

"Don't listen to her nonsense, she is a rural woman, how can she compare with my wife." Chen Xiang also heard what Chen Feng said, and deliberately pretended to be angry to coax Wang Yan.

"After I gave birth, I had spots on my face, and I looked a lot older." Wang Yan said quietly.

"It'll be fine after a while, my wife is hard. Sleep, I'll go out and see. Chen Xiang comforted Wang Yan and walked out of the dormitory door.

When he came to the yard, he saw that a few of them were still catching birds, so he called Tian Xiaobing over and asked, "Have you finished the list introduced by Manager Jiang?" “

"It's done, and it's waiting to be shipped."

"Packed?" Chen Xiang raised his eyebrows and asked.

"Hit." Tian Xiaobing replied loudly.

"Did you hit the box?" Chen Xiang then asked.

"Nope." Tian Xiaobing replied quickly and brightly.

"Why don't you hit the box, don't you explain that you want to hit the box? The last batch of goods sent to Jinan was not boxed, the door panel was broken, and it was a loss of money to toss back and forth. This time it was sent to Shaanxi, further. “

"Okay," Tian Xiaobing said and shouted to Yaoyao, who was playing with the child, "Yaoyao, go, go and put the box on." “

"Why don't you just hit a few boxes? You can't figure it out yourself. Haruka muttered.

"What did you say, your uncle called you, and you went." Chen Xiang said from afar.

Yao Yao reluctantly looked at the third uncle who was still catching birds, and followed Tian Xiaobing to the workshop.

Chen Xiang began to feel that it was not easy to use his family.

At noon that day, when the child fell asleep, Chen Xiang called Wang Yan and everyone to eat in the canteen together, and said: "In the future, I will go out to run orders, you keep an eye on the factory, and I will give you a lot of wages, you have to work hard here." ”

Chen Xiang's father answered: "Yes, you have to work hard." This is also a family business, everyone can work in the factory to make money, and you must also make a name for yourself together. ”

Wang Yan felt that his father's speech was a bit too "high, big, and high", which sounded empty, a small factory had not yet gained a firm foothold, so why did it become a business, and this was not a family business, so the two of them went around pooling money to invest in it. But there was nothing wrong with the thought that his father was also speaking to help them bring the family together. I didn't answer.

Since Chen Xiang opened this factory, his sister Chen Feng also takes her children to eat in the factory every day, Yaoyao has not yet got married, and has not received a marriage certificate, but after the marriage, the daughter-in-law followed him and had a child. Yaoyao works here, and her daughter-in-law takes her children to eat the factory.

Wang Yan could see it, and she complained to Chen Xiang behind her back: "This is one person going to work, and the whole family is not hungry." Chen Xiang said: "Don't say those stingy words, they can't eat much." Put all your mind into taking orders. ”

Wang Yan was choked up, and felt that this time she was making a mistake and did not refute her mouth.

There are many people with mixed mouths, and when they eat in the evening, the old man said, "We also have a large population, I can't be busy alone, let Chen Feng come over to help cook the rice." If you have it, give her some wages, and if you don't, don't do it. I'm fine anyway, don't pay me a salary. ”

Tian Xiaobing answered, "Yes, let Chen Feng come over to help his grandfather." The old man never cooks at home, he can't cook well, and no one eats. ”

Tian Xiaobing called his grandfather in the tone of a child. Wang Yan was disgusted when she heard this. Chen Xiang looked at Wang Yan and said, "It's not impossible." However, as I said in advance, we have just set up a factory now, and we are nervous about money, so we don't pay Chen Feng's salary, and we just eat. Chen Xiang felt that if Chen Feng was not allowed to cook, she would also eat here, so it was better to agree to let her help cook the rice here.

When Chen Feng heard this, he said: "Okay, when you make a fortune, don't forget your old sister." Wang Yan didn't like his sister to speak, she always spoke empty and empty, Wang Yan listened awkwardly, but said, "It's all my own family, okay, naturally it's all good." When you didn't open a factory, you needed help, and we helped. It's good to forget about your own family. ”

What Wang Yan said was not a lie, after she entered this house, every family, his brothers and sisters, did not have much in terms of material. Originally, their family was very unharmonious, and this sister didn't have a good sister-in-law in her mouth, so she said in front of her that this sister-in-law was not good, and that sister-in-law had no conscience, but Wang Yan refuted her a few times, saying: "No matter how bad people are, they will block the home." Let your brother and nephews have enough to eat and warmly clothed. Don't say that this sister-in-law is not good in the future, that sister-in-law is not good, and live your own life well. After saying it a few times, Chen Feng was a lot more restrained, and rarely gossiped in front of her.

Yaoyao stayed with his aunt for a long time, he always listened to his grandparents discuss in his hometown and asked his uncle and aunt for money, he knew that this aunt had a good heart, and it was true to treat him, so he said, "Don't worry, let's do a good job, okay, my aunt will definitely not treat us badly." ”

While eating, Chen Xiang's father suddenly said, "Chen Xiang, I'm going to buy vegetables and rice tomorrow." Our family has a large population, and the rice we bought is almost exhausted. If you go back and give me another one or two hundred, we have to buy some fish and meat, there is no fish and no meat, there is not enough oil and water, everyone has no nutrition, and we have no strength to work. ”

Yaoyao's daughter-in-law said: "Yes, I'm still breastfeeding, and I also need nutrition." ”

Before Chen Xiang could answer, Chen Feng answered: "Dad, you are old and inconvenient, let my brother drive to the wholesale market to buy it." Buy more meat and put it in the fridge. ”

Wang Yan listened awkwardly, this factory had just opened, and they didn't live at all, so they didn't know it, so they began to pay attention to eating. But he didn't want to say anything, so he said to Chen Xiang, "You don't have to be busy in the afternoon, go to the wholesale market to buy some rice, it's cheaper there." Cut more meat, good stir-fry. ”

Chen Xiang said, "Okay, I'll go buy it in the afternoon." His father said, "You won't buy it, but you will see the meat, and I'll go with you." In this way, at noon, Chen Xiang took his father to buy vegetables, the factory had just opened, there was no work and rest time, no work, and a few of them chatted in the yard.

Wang Yan was upset, and after coaxing the child to sleep, she went to design and plan the website by herself. Chen Xiang asked Wang Yan to contact a printing company to print promotional materials. Wang Yan felt that the website was also very important, so she discussed getting the brochure and the company's website, so that it would be easy to promote it in the future. Wang Yan learned computers and was good at planning, so she referred to the websites of major furniture companies, analyzed and compared, and listed the content of the website.

As soon as Chen Xiang finished buying vegetables and entered the factory yard, and when he got out of the car, Wang Yan stood at the door of the office and called him: "Chen Xiang, come and take a look, is the website okay?" ”

Chen Xiang agreed, and called Tian Xiaobing, who was basking in the sun at the door of the workshop, to move vegetables together. Chen Xiang put aside these idle things and walked to the computer to read the content designed by Wang Yan.

"It's basically okay, don't write the price at the bottom of the picture here, that will affect our investment." Company Profile" under the "Product Gallery". Chen Xiang expressed his opinion.

"Okay." Wang Yan recorded with a pen and said to Chen Xiang: "The printing house has sent the typeset album, you see if it will work." ”

"Open it and I'll see." Chen Xiang said to Xiao Mi in a working state. Wang Yan didn't think so, and didn't care, just opened the pictures in the folder, and said to Chen Xiang: "A total of 16P, arranged in spatial order." ”

"This picture is a bit empty, change it." Chen Xiang pointed to one of the pictures and said, "This series is put in the front, and the cloakroom and wardrobe are the main products, facing the front row." The sliding door can be placed in the back. ”

"Oh-" Wang Yan felt that Chen Xiang's instructions were very professional, and wrote them down one by one.

"The text description of this place is not appropriate, you change it first, and go back and show me." Chen Xiang broke off and continued to explain: "Also, prepare the order contract in advance, and it will definitely be used in the future, and prepare in advance." ”

"Hmm." Wang Yan agreed, and wrote it down in the notebook again.

"Sister-in-law, what are you doing? Still playing on the computer, your baby woke up. Chen Feng is a loud voice, his voice is high and high-pitched, he is outside the office, and his voice has already entered the room.

"Hurry up, let's go see the child first." Chen Xiang urged.

So, Wang Yan hurriedly ran to the small dormitory on the east side, busy urinating, feeding the child, and putting the child to sleep.

The days of the factory are tedious and busy. Wang Yan only felt physically and mentally exhausted, and suddenly missed the easy days of going to work every day! Chen Xiang discussed work or development with Wang Yan almost every day, and Wang Yan gradually felt that the two were not like husband and wife, but like comrades.

When it was almost winter, Chen Xiang's father said to buy some cabbage, and then a big factory would eat, and the vegetables would be consumed. Chen Xiang felt that his father was thoughtful, so he asked the third brother to leave the factory and called a cart selling cabbage.

However, Chen Xiang's father is not a trouble-free character, the third brother has already negotiated the price with others when he shouted vegetables, and when the middle-aged man who bought vegetables pulled the vegetables to the factory to unload the goods, Chen Xiang's father asked a few cents a pound, and the vegetable seller said, "Okay, two cents." ”

Chen Xiang's father said: "It's so expensive, everyone is 1 Mao 5." The vegetable seller said, "This dish is good, see for yourself." The old man looked at the dishes and said, "What's good, so many old leaves." Cheaper for a dime and a half. When the vegetable seller heard this, he said, "No." ”

Chen Xiang said, "Okay, I've already talked to someone." He said to the vegetable seller, "Unload." "The seller took the vegetables off and weighed them on the scales. Chen Xiang's father removed the old leaves one by one. When the vegetable seller saw it, he was anxious, "If you want this, I won't sell it." That's what it sells. “

Chen Xiang's father said: "If you don't sell it, you will take it away, there will be many vegetable sellers." Wang Yan listened to them, at first he didn't care, he didn't care, but when he saw that the old man was like this, it was indeed excessive, so he said to his father: "Oh, you don't care, let people call it home." Chen Xiang's father said, "What do you know when you are young, and people will lie to you like this." ”

The middle-aged man who sold vegetables became angry, "I lied to you about something, the vegetables are not sold." Chen Xiang's father said, "If you don't sell it, you will take it away, there will be many vegetable sellers!" Chen Xiang was also angry at his father's calculating nature, but he couldn't help it. The vegetable seller put the unloaded vegetables back on.

There are countless little things like this, they are like additives, when Chen Xiang is thinking about how to expand his business, he occasionally adds them to distract his mind, but this is an additive that has no fragrance and adds to the blockage. Both Chen Xiang and Wang Yan gradually realized that opening a factory was far from being as simple as they had originally imagined.

Who said, "When we choose another path, we choose another landscape." The scenery is not good or bad, and the process is different. Once you choose, you're ready to go. It is no longer possible to stop and return. Chen Xiang and Wang Yan are about to embark on another common life path.

In other words, since Wang Yan came to Beijing to the factory, Chen Xiang did not find that his family worked consciously. However, with Wang Yan by his side, whenever he is tired, he looks at the little girl, and his mood is much better. Yes, it is better for two people to face many troubles together than to face them alone.
