Compared with the atmosphere in the Zheng family, the Zhou family is obviously more cheerful.
Two days ago, Li Suhua started to prepare for today's meeting. The eldest and second eldest children were both married, but the youngest son was the only one left, so he had to make good preparations.
At eight o'clock in the morning, the fire in the Zhou family's kitchen was already lit. While cooking, Li Suhua glanced out the door from time to time.
"Girl Ronger, why haven't you come here yet?"
"It's really unreliable."
Yesterday, Li Suhua specially greeted her daughter and asked her to come back early today to help.
The result was good, it was already past eight o'clock and no one had come back yet.
After secretly vomiting about her daughter for a while, Li Suhua shouted outside again.
"Bingkun!"
"Have you left?"
"Not yet."
"What time is it? Why don't you hurry up and pick me up!"
Seeing that his son hadn't set off yet, Li Suhua couldn't help but urge.
"If you don't go, people will come soon."
Hearing this, Li Jie couldn't help but feel helpless.
He had clearly mentioned to his mother before that he and Zheng Juan had made an appointment to pick her up at ten in the morning.
It was only after eight o'clock, and Li Suhua started to urge me.
However, he can understand it.
Li Suhua has always been thinking about his life-long event, but now that he can finally see the shadow, it is normal to be a little excited.
Immediately, Li Jie called back towards the kitchen.
"Okay, I'll go there later."
It is conceivable that if you don't go out, Li Suhua will definitely keep urging you. Instead of doing this, it is better to go there as soon as possible.
With the extra time, he could also chat with Zheng Juan about work.
Next year, no, I should say this year's Canton Fair, Xiaoqingshan Village will definitely continue to participate, but this time the products will have to be changed.
The factory has expanded a lot, and simply selling old products may not be able to support such a large factory.
The main product of the factory this year is sofa.
Similarly, the design ideas of sofas still come from later generations. Compared with the same sofa products on the market, the sofas produced by Xiaoqingshan Village have great visual impact.
Li Jie boldly adopted a pure color design, breaking through the monotonous color selection of existing furniture, with blue, red and orange as the main colors.
Now that the sofa has entered the formal production stage, after the fifteenth day of the first lunar month, the factory will ship a batch of samples to stores in the city.
What Li Jie wants to discuss with Zheng Juan is about the sofa.
At present, the sofa is only for display, and orders will not be officially accepted until after the exhibition.
"Don't wait any longer, go now!"
"I know, let's go."
Seeing Li Suhua's repeated urging, Li Jie had no choice but to put on his thick coat, tidied up briefly and went out.
Here, as soon as Li Jie left, Zhou Rong came back.
Seeing that only Zhou Rong came back, Li Suhua couldn't help but said in surprise.
"Why are you the only one? Where is Xiaoguang?"
Zhou Rong explained: "There was something unexpected in the factory, so I called Xiaoguang over, but before he left, he told me that he would definitely be back at noon."
As soon as he heard that there was something going on with the public, Li Suhua's tone suddenly changed.
"You kid, you don't know what to do with Xiaoguang when you come back when something happens at the factory. Public affairs are more important."
Zhou Rong smiled and said: "Mom, you are the old Buddha of our family. You have given orders. How dare Xiaoguang not listen."
"Go! Go! Go."
Li Suhua waved his hand in disgust: "What age are you in? It's a good thing you're still educated, Lord Buddha. If you break the Four Olds, you've learned in vain."
"Mom, do you still know how to destroy the four olds?"
Zhou Rong laughed. If she were in another place, she would not dare to be so bold, but this is at home, and it's okay to be a little arrogant occasionally.
Seeing that her daughter was getting more and more out of control, Li Suhua immediately glared at her.
"Don't be poor. Go wash the vegetables quickly. Your brother will be back soon."
"oh."
Zhou Rong stuck out her tongue, walked to the chopping board, picked up a big cabbage and rushed to the pool outside the door.
After marriage, Zhou Rong has really changed a lot, at least she is no longer the girl who has no fingers in the spring water.
Before getting married, Cai Xiaoguang lived at home and never had to cook anything by himself.
After getting married, he and Zhou Rong did not live with their elders, but moved outside and lived alone.
As for the house issue, of course it is the allocated house.
After moving out, he had to do his own food and drink. Cai Xiaoguang felt sorry for his wife, so he also learned to cook.
But his cooking skills are simply worse than Zhou Rong.
Forced to have no choice but to pick up a spatula and kitchen knife, Zhou Rong became a chef.
In the house.
Except when his daughter first came back and showed her head, Zhou Zhigang stayed in the house the rest of the time.
At this time, there was a pile of things placed in front of him, including colorful bills and bank passbooks.
Now that the three children are married, some things should be done.
Although the Zhou family is not a wealthy family, they still have some wealth. Over the years, Zhou Zhigang and Li Suhua have also saved a lot of money.
The eldest son is far away in the border area and may not be back for a while.
The conditions there were difficult. Zhou Zhigang and Li Suhua had always wanted to provide some subsidies to the couple, but they were strongly rejected by Bingyi.
Now, the younger son is about to get married, so he just takes advantage of the "family separation" to support Bingyi and his wife at once.
Of course, 'separating the family' is just an excuse. Zhou Zhigang made this decision mainly to make his children live a better life.
After pondering for a long time, Zhou Zhigang divided the things on the table into three parts.
The first one is the largest. Most of the cash and bankbooks in the family are in this pile. They are allocated to Zhou Bingyi.
Compared with the other two children, the eldest child's conditions are the worst. Besides, Bingyi and Dongmei have children to raise.
They deserve more.
The second portion was a small amount of cash and a deposit certificate worth two hundred yuan, which was given to Zhou Rong.
The amount given to Zhou Rong was less, not because Zhou Zhigang was partial, nor because Zhou Rong was his daughter and was married.
It's because among the three children, Zhou Rong has the best living conditions.
Cai Xiaoguang is a middle-level cadre at a heavy trust factory at a young age. Although Zhou Rong is not a cadre, her income is not bad.
Therefore, Zhou Zhi just gave Zhou Rong a smaller share.
The last one, which is the smallest one when viewed individually, only contains a house deed and a palm-sized box.
However, in terms of value, this one is the most valuable.
The deed to the house was inscribed on the old house, and inside the box was an heirloom of the Zhou family, a green jade bracelet.
Although the younger son gets the most, he also has the greatest burden.
From now on, the two old people will definitely follow their younger son. It is also one of the traditions here that the younger son will take care of him until he is old.
After all the belongings were divided, Zhou Zhigang breathed a sigh of relief, as if a heavy burden had been lifted.
