After being pushed into the water, rumors spread like wildfire. Her cousin, arguing and making a scene, refused to marry the husband from her past life, only because he saved Shen Jintao when she f...
Chapter 254: Decision (Additional updates, please vote!)
After hearing this, Shen Jianguo bent even lower.
Yeah, what’s the point?
There is no brotherhood left, and now I can only watch my eldest brother's family enjoy the glory.
His mother, who once said that he would become the most promising person, now dislikes him in every way. He has been begging his eldest brother several times to let him live with him. Haha, everyone looks down on him and everyone laughs at him.
But he couldn't refute a word, because what they said was the truth. If he had been nicer to his eldest brother's family, if he had quickly stepped forward to admit his mistake after that damn girl Shen Chunmiao pushed Shen Jintao into the water, and had a better attitude, his eldest brother and sister-in-law wouldn't have to split up the family. If he hadn't agreed to his parents to take care of one child each, he could still rely on the old lady's relationship to ease the relationship with his eldest brother. If the family hadn't been split up... wouldn't he have had a share of his eldest brother's business? After all, he was his biological brother!
Xu Xuemei rushed home and saw her husband talking to her father-in-law as soon as she entered the house.
Shen Jianmin was also very happy to see his wife, and Old Man Shen was equally happy.
"Wife, why did you come back so suddenly? Didn't you go to the store in the county town?"
I thought my wife would be busy until late again today. I have to say that Shen Jianmin and Huo Beichuan, the father-in-law and son-in-law, have something in common. Once a woman starts a career, the man will have nothing to do.
"I have something to tell you." Xu Xuemei looked at Mr. Shen again, and finally told him what her daughter meant in front of him.
"My daughter just called and told us to go live with her. Her clothing factory is going to expand, and she's worried about not having someone to keep an eye on her."
Shen Jianmin perked up when he heard this, "Then did you agree, wife? What about our business here?"
Although he is no longer the team leader, he is just sitting around at home doing nothing and he really wants to go over to his daughter's place. Not to mention managing the factory, he would even be willing if his daughter could get him a job as a security guard.
"I agreed. I plan to hand over the store here to my brother and sister-in-law and share some of the profits. We will get 70% of the share every year. My daughter said that this is equivalent to hiring a professional agent. Even if we want to continue to open the store, we can fund my brother and sister-in-law to do this. In addition, my daughter also said that we should bring Old Huo with us."
"Then our father..." Shen Jianmin frowned. Although he wanted to go out, he couldn't leave Grandpa Shen here.
Mr. Shen was also a little nervous. The old man, who used to be very independent, had been living such a comfortable life with his eldest son's family in the past two years. Now he was really afraid of living alone. As for his second son, there was absolutely no way he would go.
"Are you stupid? Of course we have to take our father with us. Anyway, we have money now, so we can buy a soft sleeper. Although our father may still suffer a little, it's actually not a big deal."
"Dad, what do you think?"
Mr. Shen is old now, and is no longer as strong as before. The main reason is that he had a serious illness two years ago, and it seems that all his energy and spirit have been drained away.
After much difficulty in raising them, the old man has learned to rely on his children.
"Can I...can I follow?"
He asked uncertainly whether he still wanted to go, as his granddaughter had previously said that she wanted to take him to the beach. However, young people have been very busy these days, so he had not mentioned this matter.
"Of course I can. Taozi specifically told me to do that. When you get there, I'll take you to the beach!"
This was indeed what Chen Jintao had instructed. Xu Xuemei was mainly worried that the elderly would be reluctant to leave their hometown when they get old, which would be a problem.
"Oh my god! Hehe! I have never left the hospital in my life. When I was young, I worked for the team and had to get involved in all the trivial matters. I feel like I have shortened my life as the team leader. I must go out for a walk."
Old Master Shen said with a smile, this also shows that the young people really don’t despise him as an old man, he is very happy.
Shen Jianmin, who had just retired from the position of captain: ...
Why did he feel so uncomfortable listening to his father's words?
"Then it's a deal. Jianmin, come with me to visit my mother's family."
"Sure!"
Shen Jianmin drove Xu Xuemei out. Actually, Xu Xuemei could have driven him too, but her daughter had called before and said that she should occasionally show weakness in front of men. Although she didn't understand, she still listened to her daughter. She had to say that since her man had some free time, he had really pleased her more and more.
Now Shen Jianmin can also cook delicious dishes, because he has to take care of the old man when Xu Xuemei is busy. And since he found that his wife is getting younger and younger, he has also started to pay attention to his image. He no longer hesitates to wear the clothes sent back by his daughter, and he also applies cold cream every night. It has to be said that after starting to pay attention to his image, Shen Jianmin has also turned into a handsome uncle.
Xu Family: ...
"Are you all going?" Old Mrs. Xu asked somewhat unhappily. She was used to visiting her daughter from time to time. Her daughter and son-in-law would come to see her when they had time. If she left, she didn't know how many times she would come back in a year. She would know after seeing her granddaughter.
"Do you want to join us?" Xu Xuemei asked.
Anyway, it's the same whether you're herding one sheep or two sheep. Although this description may seem a bit inappropriate, it's almost the same.
"Forget it. I've been there before, so I won't bother. Besides, your brothers and sisters-in-law are busy now, and your nephews are out. There needs to be someone to keep an eye on the house. Your nephews and their wives are busy all day long, so they can relax a little if I stay at home and look after the children."
Speaking of this, Xu Xuemei talked about what Chen Jintao had told her about the recent situation of the boys in the Xu family, thinking of telling them about it to make the old lady happy.
"Mom, I'm telling you, none of my nephews are bad. Taozi said they do a good job, and since they're renovating a store for her friend, they have endless work to do. Those guys also said that if possible, they'd buy a small house over there and bring their wives and children over. Although I know you'd be reluctant to leave your great-grandchildren, you can go over there when the time comes, right? Taozi said that her place is better developed than ours, and the schools are better, so the children can get a better education there. Anyway, the house can be sold after they buy it. If those guys don't want to live there anymore, they can sell the house and then come back to the city to buy a house. Maybe they can even make some money from the house."
Xu Xuemei said so much because she was afraid that the old lady would stop her grandchildren and great-grandchildren from going over.
The old lady rolled her eyes, "Don't I know what you're thinking? Am I such a person who doesn't know the difference between the important and the unimportant?"
Just look at her eldest grandson and you will know that this child still needs to learn. Although the master leads you to the door and the practice depends on the individual, a good master will lead you to the door in a different way.
