Chapter 424: Contentment and Discontentment
The Song family and his entourage left the Northeast with Huang Feng on the sixth day of the first month, set off early in the morning, and arrived in the capital in the afternoon of the same day.
"I really didn't expect the capital to be so close, oops, I didn't dare to think about it before, it seems that it will take half a lifetime to go to the city." Huang Fenglai sat in the car and was full of emotion.
People on both sides of the street were hurrying, red lanterns were hanging everywhere, and Huang Fenglai's eyes were dying.
They set off from home after dawn in the morning, and when they arrived in the capital, the sky still hadn't darkened, and Bai Liu only dared to think about it before.
"The plane is really good, I will take you to the port city in a few days, take the plane all the way, the port city is more prosperous than the capital." Bai Liu saw Huang Fenglai's curious gaze and couldn't help but report the next itinerary.
The capital has changed a lot in recent years, but it is still not as prosperous as the port city, at least now there is a big gap.
Anyway, they all came out, and if you don't walk around, you'll be blind this time.
Huang Fenglai looked surprised, and then hurriedly waved his hand: "I won't go, I won't go, why should I go to that place, it's good for me to come to the capital." Go ahead, I'll help you take care of the jelly beans at home, and the jelly beans still need me to cook. ”
Huang Fenglai always keeps in mind her "mission", she is not here to travel, she is here to take care of jelly beans.
Hiding it until now, Jelly Bean couldn't help but laugh out loud first.
"Grandma, you'll know when you arrive, you can play if you want, I'm no problem at home alone, and my dad is at home." Jelly Beans couldn't laugh or cry.
But he couldn't say that his previous words were "white lies", so he could only look at Bai Liu for help.
"Mom, don't think about it so much, you can live your life before, we want you to come out and play." Bai Liu blinked and said something else, "I heard that Zhou Xiangnan is going to bring Aunt Zhou, Zhou Xiucai and Aunt Tian to the capital, if you don't hurry up, you won't be the most powerful old lady in our village in the future." ”
Bai Liu knew what his mother cared about, and this sentence was a fatal temptation to Huang Fenglai.
Well, Huang Fenglai wants to be the most powerful old lady in Xiangyang Village!
Huang Fenglai really didn't speak, but still said: "I'll talk about it when I get home later, anyway, I'm not an irresponsible old lady, you don't care about the jelly beans, I have to take care of it, the child is about to take the college entrance examination." ”
"It's not important to study, you all rely on learning to change your fate, especially you, if you don't know how to read, can you be admitted to high school and study at the University of Workers, Peasants and Soldiers? Oh, I still have to read. Huang Fenglai firmly believes that reading can change fate.
In fact, there is no problem with this, for ordinary people, born in an era of change, reading can quickly move towards another life path.
At the same time, this is also an era in which ordinary people can succeed, such as Zhou Xiangnan.
Zhou Xiangnan is not from a school background, but he also has outstanding features.
Bai Liu did not argue with Huang Feng, let alone say that foreign universities rely on recommendation to admit students, and their background is very important.
She smiled and said, "Mom, can't you have a little confidence in jelly beans?" Reading is important, but some things are more important. ”
Huang Fenglai took the opportunity to ask, "What can be more important than reading?" ”
Just as the car stopped, Bai Liu pointed out the window: "Oh, eat." The people regard food as the sky, and if they don't eat, the sky will fall. ”
Huang Fenglai: ......
"You kid, such an adult, why are you still so unreliable, you think about eating all day long......"
Song Jiaying and his parents were in the car in front, they got out of the car earlier, came down to wait for Bai Liu, and saw Huang Fenglai to "do it" first.
"Ahem," Song Jiaying knew that it must be Bai Liu's mouth and mouth, so he hurriedly stepped forward to relieve the siege, "Mom, let's eat roast duck and shabu mutton today, this is a famous food in the capital, especially roast duck, the taste will be different when we bring it back." ”
Bai Liu muttered in a low voice: "Mom, give me face, understand?" ”
Huang Fenglai's hands itched again.
Song Jiaying hurriedly glanced at Bai Liu: "You go and order food first." ”
Bai Liu has always said recently that the old man is old, like a child, and her attitude towards children is to keep teasing children, and I don't know if this stinky problem can be changed in this life.
Jelly Bean moves faster and happily runs to the box.
Huang Fenglai smelled the smell of the restaurant, she was not a person who was unhappy, she knew that her in-laws and daughter and son-in-law were rich, so she naturally wouldn't ask how much money it was.
She thought about it before she came, she was neither deaf nor dumb and not a family, and when she saw them spending money, as long as it was not too much, she wouldn't say anything.
Respect each other's habits.
When the roast duck was served, well, no wonder everyone came to the capital, and sure enough, this roast duck was delicious.
Bai Liu rolled duck cakes for Huang Feng, and did not forget to take care of Lu Pingwan and Song Jingyun, both of whom are elders, and they can't neglect either.
Lu Pingwan refused: "I don't want it, I'm going to France next week to attend an event, and I want to keep in shape." ”
"France?" Huang Fenglai had only heard the name of France in the newspapers, and knew that this was the country, "It's very far, right?" ”
Lu Pingwan just wanted to say far away, but suddenly paused and shook her head: "It's not far, soon, let's go over together next week." ”
Huang Fenglai knew that it was a foreign country, and he was far away, so he resolutely disagreed: "I won't go, I heard that we can't understand what foreigners say, people praise me, and I will be scolded by others, then it will be troublesome." ”
Bai Liu smiled and relieved the siege: "Then don't go first, wait for us to give you a certificate to go abroad, anyway, don't think about going back easily." ”
This is like selling Huang Fenglai.
Huang Fenglai didn't mind at all: "I'm an old woman, it's already good to come to the capital, I live a clear life, I know how to be content." ”
"I can't tell if contentment is a good thing or a bad thing, and if I did, I would probably be in my twenties. Now that I think about it, I think that it is better to be not satisfied, which means to have a higher purpose. Song Jingyun shook his head, disapproving of the contentment in Huang Fenglai's mouth.
People who do business, how can contentment climb the peak again and again.
Huang Fenglai still smiled: "I have no culture, it is enough for me to see that the children are living well, and our life goals are different." ”
Several people laughed as they spoke, and the conversation was nothing more than seeking common ground while reserving differences.
Song Jiaying happened to come back from the bathroom, and when he heard them talking, he said: "It doesn't matter if you are content or not, I think people should cherish their blessings." ”
A look of emotion from a person who has come over.
"Did you go out and see anyone?" Bai Liu felt that Song Jiaying had been out for a long time.
Song Jiaying nodded: "I met Gu Xiaohui, she took her husband and children and said a few words casually. ”
Bai Liu was even more curious, Gu Xiaohui helped Zhou Xiangnan get the first pot of gold, and also used his father's relationship to pave the way for Zhou Xiangnan, but in the end he heard that Gu Xiaohui promised his father to marry.
"She seems to have broken off with Zhou Xiangnan?"
Song Jiaying pursed her lips and shook her head: "No, just now Gu Xiaohui also said that Zhou Xiangnan was coming to the capital, and everyone could get together in the future, but her husband dragged her away." ”
It seems that Gu Xiaohui's husband has also heard Zhou Xiangnan's name.
Bai Liu shrugged: "It's all her own choice, I hope she can figure it out." ”
Sure enough, the women who touched the south last week will become unlucky.
