"Ji Cheng! I didn't ask you to help me with my homework. Please take down my homework! Your family lives in the sea, so you are quite lenient."
Qiao Jinliang was exposed and wanted to snatch the homework back, but Ji Cheng nimbly stepped aside.
"Haha, I won't give it to you. If you have the ability, come and grab it!"
Ji Cheng also teased Qiao Jinliang.
Qiao Jinling gets a headache every time he sees these two people getting together. They say that a woman is worth five hundred ducks, and these two little boys are about the same.
She usually stayed out of the feud between these two enemies because she thought they were noisy. She would hide away, and no matter which side she leaned towards, the other one would always grumble and look aggrieved.
Qiao Jinling quietly walked to the balcony. The sunlight filtered through the glass window, making her body warm. It was too hot to wear a thick cotton-padded jacket, so she had already put on a thin cotton-padded jacket.
She looked through the letter in her hand.
The four letters were all sent by Song Yishan. The contents of the letters were different, but they were all postmarked on the same day. In other words, although Song Yishan could not send her letters abroad, he was still writing letters on time, waiting for the time when he could send the letters.
When the time comes, send them together.
What a careful little boy.
She always felt that Song Yishan was more mature than his peers. His dark brown eyes were calm and neither sad nor happy. At such a young age, he was as calm as an old well, yet he could see things very clearly.
In addition to regular greetings, the letter told Qiao Jinling about his experiences abroad, and he also sent four postcards with it.
"Hey! What is this?"
Ji Cheng sneaked over at some point and grabbed the postcard away.
"Give me the postcard."
Qiao Jinling wasn't angry either, but her tone became colder.
"That's it for you, why are you so fierce?"
Ji Cheng returned the postcard obediently, glanced at the envelope sideways, pouted, and asked sourly: "Who is Song Yanshan?"
"Pfft! Song Yanshan? Haha..."
Qiao Jinling held back her laughter, pointed to the words on the envelope, and said word by word to Ji Cheng: "Classmate Ji Cheng, this word is pronounced Yi, not salt. His name is Song Yishan!"
"I knew it was Song Yishan, but I pronounced it wrong on purpose."
Ji Cheng was exposed and looked embarrassed. It was normal for a first-grade primary school student not to know so many words, but he just felt humbled in front of Qiao Jinling. She knew so many words, but he didn't even know the word "kind".
Qiao Jinling packed up the letter and prepared to put it into the small iron box. But Jicheng was still asking: "Who is this Song Yishan?"
"My former deskmate."
"Tablemate?"
"Yes, I went to school in the countryside, so of course I had classmates."
"Oh~ My roommate from the countryside..."
Ji Cheng is very satisfied with this answer. He is just a country kid, how can he compare with a city kid like him?
noon.
Sun Huifang cooked a table of dishes for Ji Cheng and Ji Cheng to have dinner. It was already in the New Year, so everything was ready-made, so it was not troublesome to prepare.
The adults at the dinner table naturally gave red envelopes, paid New Year greetings, asked about their studies, and a series of greetings. They were nothing more than "Your child is great, studies well and is obedient, but my child is not so good."
"Go forward, you are a big business person, why are you always sitting in this canteen? Just leave this kind of small business to your younger brothers and sisters. It doesn't matter whether you make money or not. As a woman, if you have something to do, just don't be idle. Earn
Big money still depends on us men."
Ji Jiji took a sip of white wine, the spicy taste entered his throat, and he had no hesitation in speaking.
"I'm just a person with no big future. My wife and children are on the hot bed, I can make a little money, and my family is safe, so I'll be satisfied."
Qiao Qianqian was a little unhappy, but after all, they were old acquaintances and he was unwilling to go too far. Sun Huifang couldn't stand it and went into the kitchen on the pretext of cooking another dish.
Qiao Jinling was also unhappy, but she could not deny Ji Shijie's ability. From the first time she met Ji Shijie, she knew that this man had great ambitions and dared to take over a state-owned leather shoe factory in the 1980s. Such courage was not something ordinary people could achieve.
.
The butt determines the head.
Sitting in the position of factory director, Ji Jiji naturally speaks and acts based on his identity. The shiny back hair, long windbreaker, big leather shoes, and black leather bag are all Ji Jiji's way of showing his identity to outsiders.
——I am a rich person, I am a person with status, I am a person with status, I am not an ordinary person.
"Hey! Go forward, what you said is wrong. There is money everywhere now, and you have to live up to your name. Not only do you have to look forward, but you also have to look toward money, otherwise your good name will be in vain.
"
Ji Jiji picked up a chopstick of day lily and praised it profusely: "The day lily cooked by my brothers and sisters is amazing. It's been a dinner party lately. I eat big fish and meat and my stomach is greasy, but the porridge and side dishes you have here are so delicious."
His exaggerated expression made him look like he had eaten day lily and his shit would be shiny and golden the next day.
Qiao Jinling felt that women's tea tasted disgusting, while men's tea tasted simply too greasy. Everyone had just had enough to eat, and the porridge and side dishes were delicious, wasn't it just to show off how high-class the people he was interacting with were.
Qiao Xiangqian simply didn't answer, and kept his head down while eating.
"Uncle Ji, your leather shoe factory must have many people liking the leather shoes, right?"
Qiao Jinling's eyes were bright and clear, and her big black pupils looked innocent and ignorant. She could guess the reason for Ji Jiji's visit, and they all said that he would go to the Three Treasures Hall for nothing. Nowadays, Ji Jiji has a very strong purpose in doing things, and it is impossible to celebrate the New Year for no reason.
Take a trip.
"Well, yes, the sales are pretty good. If there weren't top-notch products from the south, they would definitely sell even better!"
Ji Jiji drank a glass of wine, and he didn't know whether it was because of anger or drinking. The skin on his cheekbones was bright red, and a lock of hair fell out. He wiped it back in annoyance, but it fell off again after a while.
"Coming from south to north, there is more circulation. Nowadays, there are more and more good things, which is normal. Unlike before, as long as there is something, everyone rushes to grab it. Now it has to be about style and so on. I don't understand, so I just have to be smart.
The clothing store that Fang and my neighbor opened together must be fashionable to be popular."
Qiao Jinling felt that her father seemed inflexible, but his brain was clearer than anyone else.
"Qiang Qian, you really hit the mark. You must start a leather shoe factory with me. I'll tell you that you are a person with ideas. I don't want you to invest money, so just come up with ideas."
The season beats Joe's forward shoulder.
Qiao Jinling frowned, there must be something wrong with him being so attentive for nothing. His father was very good, but he wasn't good enough that Ji Jiji would invite him out of the cottage again and again.
"Oh, Brother Ji, I really can't do it."
Qiao Qianqian is still persisting.
"It will definitely work. You will be responsible for style research and development. We will make a batch of fashionable goods, which will definitely be very popular."
Ji Jiji glanced at Qiao Jinling.
"Uncle Ji, Lingling remembers that I painted shoes for you before. Are those shoes okay?"
Qiao Jinling suddenly asked.
"Uh, um, if you don't tell me, uncle will almost forget about it. Sorry, Lingling, I lost those drawings when I changed factories. Otherwise, uncle will go back and look for them?"
"No need, uncle."
Qiao Jinling understood that those drawings would never be recovered, so why bother?
"Lingling, why don't you draw some more? Now that Uncle Ji is the director of the factory, he has the final say and can help Lingling realize her dream."
Ji Shijie's words moved Qiao Jinling's heart. Why did she feel that Ji Shijie's visit was not for her father, but for her?
