From then on, Su Zi was very self-aware and never touched needlework again. Her man's face was so small, so she had to save it.

The uniforms they both wore on a daily basis would occasionally get torn and needed patching, and Zhao Tianlei would do it himself. Although it was a bit ugly, at least the stitching was solid.

Later, when we had a child, the clothes were either prepared by our grandparents or the clothes that Gu Yiyi wore when she was a child.

When the child was older, Jianshu opened a children's clothing store, and the clothes and other items were all taken care of by her, the aunt. This saved the couple a lot of trouble and also helped Zhao Yuanyuan save face.

"Of course it's the child's father!" Su Zi did not hide his cooking skills.

Isn't it just that my needlework is not good? It's not a big deal. If you have the guts, come and fight her.

Didn't she say that there are few people here who can fight?

"Yes, I'll do it! Don't bully my wife!" Zhao Tianlei defended his wife.

Zhao Yueling rolled her eyes at her brother. "My sister-in-law can knock me to the ground with just one finger. You should worry about yourself. We'll be waiting for your masterpiece in a few days. Don't embarrass my nephew then."

"You little bitch, how can you look down on your brother so much?" Zhao Tianlei reached out to hit her head.

Zhao Yueling dodged and held Gu Yiyi in her arms as a shield.

Looking at his niece's big watery eyes, Zhao Tianlei couldn't bring himself to do it.

"Okay, let's go eat, it will get cold soon." Jianshu wiped the tears from the corners of his eyes and invited everyone to go to the restaurant for dinner.

Today's New Year's Eve dinner is really complete.

Gu Zhan's family, Jian Yucheng's family, Zhao Mingze's family, Qian Wenhan's family, and Wei Zhou's family.

Except for a few children who were unable to leave, all the others were present.

Wei Zhou was transferred back just two years ago, and Gu Zhan also came back this year. The four brothers were separated for many years and finally reunited in Beijing.

About thirty or forty people, big and small, squeezed together and sat at three tables before they could finally sit down. Everyone was toasting and chatting happily.

After dinner, a group of young people were laughing and joking, while the elders were sitting on the sofa drinking tea and chatting.

"Grandpa and grandma, happy new year!"

The children went up together to wish their elders a happy new year. After receiving red envelopes, they happily ran out to set off firecrackers.

This New Year was really lively.

Jianshu takes his daughter out eating and drinking all day long. After the New Year, it seems that her face has become rounder.

"Aunt He, we've been eating too much greasy food these days. Let's make a vegetarian dinner tonight."

In the past two years, winter has become more green. Some clever villagers have planted leeks and other vegetables on their kangs during the winter. Although the yield is not high, fresh vegetables are hard to come by in winter, so the prices are high and the profits are considerable.

If there is profit, people will naturally delve into it.

Soon, greenhouses were built for growing vegetables, and the first year the vegetables were on the market, the supply was in short supply. With the first person taking the plunge, others quickly followed suit.

Although it is not as popular as it is in later generations, it is no longer like previous years when people could only eat cabbage and radishes in winter.

Jianshu can also take out a bag of vegetables from the space every now and then to add some dishes to the table.

In the past few years of reform and opening up, people's lives have gradually changed from just having enough to eat to just having good food.

After the New Year, everyone went to work or school, and the house was empty again.

Now that Gu Yiyi has a new place to go and a new backer, she has become even more lawless, which always makes Jianshu very angry.

…

In 1985, Jianshu acquired a piece of land in Shenzhen and planned to build a high-end hotel.

As Shenzhen becomes more and more developed, more and more people come here to do business. As conditions improve, the requirements for accommodation will also increase accordingly.

Jianshu had high expectations for this hotel. He invited experts from the Department of Architecture to design it, invested heavily in it, and built it entirely with the most advanced technology and materials.

Otherwise, even though the factories under her name are making a fortune, she really can't afford to run this business.

She has high requirements, the construction is difficult, and accordingly, the construction period is also long.

Over the years, many people in the school knew about her business, but basically no one had any objections.

First of all, these have nothing to do with them, and Jianshu does not affect their work.

Secondly, she would provide certain internship positions every winter and summer vacation for Peking University students to go for internships.

You know, whether it's the Huayi Garment Factory, the Huawei Food Factory, the Electronics Factory, or the Furniture Factory, they are all well-known in China and are top-notch in their respective industries.

Even for Kyoto University, it is not easy to find so many good internship resources at one time.

Since the boss is one of us, of course we are the first to get the upper hand.

This year, the construction work at the hotel is in full swing, and the civil engineering students are also very happy.

With this experience, their resumes will look much better and they can get extra points when assigned jobs.

Of course, that is also beneficial for Jianshu.

Firstly, with an extra pair of eyes watching over them, she could rest assured. Secondly, these were all potential stocks, and poaching them and building good relationships with them would be a sure win for her.

She paid only a small fee, but received much more than that.

This year, Gu Yiyi graduated from elementary school.

Today's primary school is still a five-year system, and the six-year system will start next year, so she will be able to graduate a year early.

As soon as summer vacation came, my grandparents dragged me into the army.

When the summer vacation was almost over, Jianshu came back from the south with a daughter who had become more than two shades darker.

"all?"

"Mother!"

The mother and daughter looked at each other.

Gu Yiyi hugged her mother and cried.

"Okay, okay, if you don't want to, then mom will tell your grandpa and the others that we won't go there anymore." Jian Shu was soft-hearted for once and wanted to be a loving mother.

Gu Yiyi wiped her tears and said, "No, I can do it!"

The praise and flattery from her family since she was young made her develop a confident personality, and she always believed that there was nothing she couldn't do. It was also because of this that Jian Yucheng and Gu Zhan threw her into the army to hone her skills.

If it were someone else, they might have agreed to Jianshu's words, but she was unwilling to do so.

"You have to think clearly. This is your only chance to retreat. If you refuse, no matter how hard or tiring it is in the future, you have no choice but to persevere." Jian Shu half-knelt and looked at her seriously.

Gu Yiyi gritted her teeth and insisted, "I can do it!"

While Jianshu was pleased, she couldn't help but sigh in her heart that her daughter had grown up.

She had no opinion on the path her child would take in the future. Her father and his family had not sent their child to the army because they wanted the child to follow the same path as them.

They respect their children's choices.

Even if Gu Yiyi does not take this path in the future, these experiences will be helpful to her future.
