Chapter 433 The Road Is One That One Has Took Out
The Lei family's banquet was originally scheduled to start at six o'clock, but due to this delay, it didn't begin until seven o'clock.
Lei Jingqiu went in first and told Grandpa Lei that he didn't want to go to work and wanted to start a business instead.
Grandpa Lei didn't give a direct answer, but instead called Lei Jingwu and Yao Shula in again.
The four of them chatted in the study for almost forty minutes before finally coming out together.
The final result was that Grandpa Lei gave Lei Jingqiu a year to try his luck. If he succeeded, great; if he failed, he could come back and work a stable job.
He treated Lei Jingqiu as if he had gone out to study during that year.
Lei Jingqiu was very happy. He had originally thought that he would live his life like his father, going to work and coming home in a routine manner and then waiting for retirement...
Now……
Now that he can do what he wants, he can completely take a different path.
Everyone ate the meal with their own thoughts on it.
What surprised them was that the old man had really handed over all the household affairs to his new wife, and they were even more surprised that his wife actually supported Lei Jingqiu not going to work and instead running a company...
They're even willing to invest money!
They weren't foolish enough to think that their sister-in-law was trying to suppress Lei Jingqiu.
Lei Jingqiu's future seemed bleak; at best, the old man would get him a decent job, and that would be the best they could hope for. They never imagined that Lei Jingqiu would receive the Lei family's full support.
Therefore, Yao Shula's sister-in-law didn't actually intend to ruin Lei Jingqiu; she probably just thought Lei Jingqiu's idea was good!
Couldn't they take this route? Anyway, that woman has money; it wouldn't be a problem if she contributed some!
However, the woman asked Lei Jingqiu to submit an investment plan. Could they handle that?
Regardless of what others thought, Lei Jingwu and Yao Shula were enjoying their meal. Indeed, many of the dishes on the table were their favorites.
...
After Yao Shula got home, she finished tidying up and taking a shower. Lei Jingwu pulled Yao Shula to sit on the edge of the bed and asked the question that had been on his mind.
"Do you really think Jingqiu's idea is good?" Lei Jingwu asked, putting his arm around Yao Shula's shoulder.
Yao Shula leaned against Lei Jingwu's shoulder and reclined comfortably.
“Your cousin… has some ideas. Just the fact that he can see that the computer market will be huge in the future shows that this kid isn’t unintelligent.”
It's not that they hadn't found the right path for themselves before.
Actually, he... is somewhat similar to Shuli in some ways! Yao Shula said honestly.
Lei Jingwu was somewhat skeptical.
How can Jingqiu compare to Shuli? Shuli has been a clever little devil since he was a child. He knew how to make money when he was young, and making money has always been ingrained in his bones.
“Jingqiu and Shuli… are still different!” Lei Jingwu shook his head.
Yao Shula knew why Lei Jingwu said that.
The Lei family has many grandchildren. Above them is Lei Jingwu, whom the old man values most, and below them is Xiao Tiantian, whom everyone cherishes.
No one can compare to these two.
In addition, Lei Jingqiu's second uncle has always kept a low profile and his work is average, so Lei Jingqiu has always been relatively unknown.
Fortunately, when it comes to his grandchildren, apart from Lei Jingwu and Xiao Tiantian, Grandpa Lei treats the other grandchildren the same.
The old man was very supportive of any learning needs.
Unfortunately, Lei Jingqiu wasn't very good at studying either. He took the college entrance exam three times before finally getting in, and he also had a bit of a spoiled brat attitude.
"The biggest difference between Jingqiu and Shuli is that no one supports him."
As you know, Shuli didn't do well in school when she was young. Back then, my only requirement for Shuli was that she pass the exams and get into junior high school.
Later, I discovered by chance that Shuli liked making money, so I started working on that aspect. Otherwise, Shuli would be like this now...
Your cousin is thoughtful and has good judgment.
It's just that the Lei family is a large and influential family, which is why he was confined within their framework.
"Believe it or not, if you give him absolute autonomy, he won't do badly," Yao Shula said seriously.
Lei Jingwu thought for a moment...
Shuli grew up freely as a child, and Yao Shula always supported him no matter what he thought.
Lei Jingqiu...
There are many adults in the family, and many people are in charge. Even if there is a small spark of ideas, it will be extinguished by the adults in time.
Lei Jingqiu grew up within constraints, and whenever his ideas touched those constraints, they were suppressed.
Now he's trying hard to break out of that framework...
“Okay! In a few days, after he brings the investment plan, take a good look at it. There’s money in the savings account I gave you; just give it to him as you see fit.” Lei Jingwu readily agreed.
Yao Shula quickly shook her head.
“I have my own money. As I said, I decided to invest because I thought Lei Jingqiu’s idea was good. I’m in it to make money.”
Lei Jingwu, however, squeezed Yao Shula's shoulder.
"What are you thinking! My money is your money too. The money you take out to invest is yours!"
"If I don't give you my money, am I supposed to give it to someone else?" Lei Jingwu was a little unhappy.
The happiest thing in his life was that Yao Shula treated everything about him as her own, and he, Lei Jingwu, was hers too!
Yao Shula thought about it and decided that investing Lei Jingwu's money... didn't seem like a bad idea.
She turned around to face Lei Jingwu.
"How about this? You and I will each contribute half, and I'll keep all the profits anyway."
However, if we told Lei Jingqiu that we would each pay half, he would be very happy.
You contributed half the money, you are his eldest brother, and the oldest in the Lei family this generation.
Your support represents a different meaning, implying that you also think he has some ideas.
Okay, it's decided! We'll each pay half!
"Okay, time to sleep!" Yao Shula pulled the covers over herself, rolled over, and went to sleep.
Lei Jingwu...
"Wife! Wife! It's still a bit early! Can you sleep?"
"Why can't I sleep? I'm so tired. I've been so exhausted lately that I just want to sleep for three days and three nights."
"Go to sleep, behave yourself, sleep like a vegetarian!" Yao Shula said as she closed her eyes.
Lei Jingwu... he's sleeping with vegetarian food! He's only been married for less than a week, shouldn't they be deeply in love? How come he's already sleeping with vegetarian food?
Listening to Yao Shula's regular breathing, Lei Jingwu suppressed his thoughts and carefully pulled the blanket up a little for Yao Shula.
After lying down next to Yao Shula, Yao Shula leaned back and slept even more soundly in Lei Jingwu's arms.
...
Lei Jingwu originally thought that Lei Jingqiu would back down, but to his surprise, Lei Jingqiu actually wrote an investment plan for three days.
The way he studied so hard... even Aunt Lei thought that if Lei Jingqiu had put in the same effort as when he wrote the project plan, how could it have taken him three years to get into university!
