The Spring Festival of 1991 arrived.
The most important thing this Spring Festival is that Chen Qiaogu got married.
She is the same age as Chen Xia, but a month younger. After the Chinese New Year, she will be 29 years old.
Yes, it is because of old age. In rural areas, other women may have children who are old enough to help with cooking at the age of 29.
Chen Qiaogu’s husband is an English teacher at Yuezhou Teachers College. His name is Zhuang Hongjun. They are actually high school classmates.
That year, Zhuang Hongjun was admitted to university, but Chen Qiaogu failed and returned home to become a rural teacher.
Later, after Chen Xia's business was expanded, he required all company executives to learn English, so he specially invited an English teacher from Yuezhou Teachers College to tutor them.
Zhuang Hongjun was young and promising, with outstanding oral skills, so he was assigned to provide one-on-one tutoring to Chen Qiaogu.
As it turned out, they were old classmates and fell in love with each other over time, so they fell in love with each other.
When "Four Seasons Department Store" was just established, the company had a lot of things to do, so Chen Qiaogu devoted herself to her career. Only now that the company has stabilized did the two officially get married.
Everyone breathed a sigh of relief and was happy and grateful for her!
Only Chen Qiaogu knew that the reason she chose a teacher as her husband was not only because they knew each other well, but also because she did not want Chen Xia to become suspicious.
Chen Xia gave Chen Qiaogu a lot of power, so much so that the company's annual turnover was 700 to 800 million US dollars. She was the only one who made the final decision on all matters big and small in the company, and the headquarters only had to conduct the final audit of the finances.
If Chen Qiaogu had any bad intentions, even a little bit of it would have slipped through her fingers, and that would have amounted to millions or tens of millions.
No one can trust her for a long time.
(If Chen Xia heard this, he would definitely say he didn’t, and that he absolutely trusted her, but Chen Qiaogu herself couldn’t get over it.)
With Chen Qiaogu's current career success and her long legs, what kind of man can she not find?
In fact, many wealthy families and handsome young men in the Jiangsu, Zhejiang and Shanghai areas took the initiative to contact her and wanted to make friends with her.
These bosses are not stupid. Whoever Chen Qiaogu marries into will have their business soar.
With an annual turnover of 700 to 800 million US dollars, even if only a small part of it falls into his hands, it would be a big business exceeding 500 to 600 million RMB a year.
Others understand it, Chen Qiaogu understands it too, so how could Chen Xia not understand it?
Once Chen Qiaogu "marries into a wealthy family", it will actually be the time when Chen Xia will give up her military power and transfer her to an unimportant department.
All of this is a warning from her cunning grandfather, the head of the Chen family, Chen Yigen, to his granddaughter.
So Chen Qiaogu found an English teacher, a student from a poor family, in exchange for Chen Xia's continued trust in her.
Alas, human hearts are so complicated. Whether Chen Xia admits it or not, this is the best result.
Now that Chen Qiaogu is getting married, Chen Xia will not treat her unfairly.
Chen Qiaogu has no shortage of money. As an M4 executive, she now has an annual base salary of HK$5 million, plus an additional bonus at the end of the year based on her performance.
So her annual income is at least over 7 million Hong Kong dollars, which is about 5 million RMB when converted into RMB.
With an annual income of 5 million RMB in 1990, it is absolutely no exaggeration to say that Chen Qiaogu was the richest woman in Yuezhou.
So Chen Xia gave Chen Qiaogu a Mercedes-Benz as a wedding gift, which was worth over a million RMB. Mercedes-Benz is also known as Mercedes-Benz.
Of course, no one knew that this Mercedes-Benz was one of the smuggled cars that Chen Xia got from Lansha Port.
This free favor is...
On the second day of the Lunar New Year, Qingfeng Village was bustling with activity.
Today is Chen Qiaogu's wedding day. As the most promising son of the Chen family, almost everyone in Qingfeng Village came to help.
Even if there is nothing to help with, your attitude must be correct.
Didn’t you see that Comrade Chen Xia, the former vice president of the People’s Hospital, current vice chairman of the Four Seasons Group, and a dignified big boss, was also wearing an apron and serving dishes at the banquet himself?
Outside, Chen Xia is considered a member of a group, but when he returns to the village, he is just a junior.
If he dared to act arrogantly, not only would the clan leader, Fourth Grandfather, disapprove, even Great Grandfather, who had specially returned from Hong Kong, would not agree and would definitely kick him to death.
In rural Yuezhou, those who serve dishes at banquets are usually close relatives or best friends. In short, they are people with whom the host family has a close relationship.
Chen Xia personally took part in the event, which in itself was a gesture of attitude, telling the people of Qingfeng Village that Chen Qiaogu was the sister he valued most.
"Come on, move aside. Be careful, it's hot. Here's a plate of lobster with scallion oil."
"Xiao Xia, these shrimps are so big, much bigger than the shrimps in the river. Are they delicious?"
"Third Grandma, this lobster is over a hundred yuan. Do you think it tastes good? You should eat more so that you can have the energy to raise more chickens. I will help you sell eggs later."
Hahaha, everyone at the table laughed.
When Chen Xia was reborn and started to engage in speculative business, the old ladies, led by Third Grandma, sold all the eggs in the village to him.
Chen Xia took these eggs to the big city and sold them at the black market price to make a profit.
This interesting story was once a top secret in the village, but now it has become a topic of laughter after dinner.
Third Grandma hit Chen Xia lightly:
"Kid, I knew you had a lot of potential back then. Your family eats meat the most in the whole village, and you keep the door closed, afraid to let anyone see. But everyone has already smelled the stench."
An old man answered, "That's right, Xiao Xia. In those days, who could eat meat every day? Thinking of the aroma, many people deliberately walked back and forth in front of your house."
Chen Xia looked at the table full of meat and vegetables and said with a smile:
"Uncle Jiu, you have to eat more today. This braised pork knuckle is all yours. If it's not enough, I'll get more. I guarantee you'll have enough to eat."
Hahahaha~~~~
Looking at Chen Xia chatting and laughing with the villagers, the eldest grandfather and the fourth grandfather nodded with satisfaction. This was the future clan leader they were training.
Obviously Chen Xia is already capable of shouldering this responsibility.
According to the custom in Yuezhou, the man goes to the woman's house to pick up the bride in the morning, comes to the woman's house for lunch at noon, and the bride and groom toast to the woman's relatives.
In the afternoon, the bride is taken to the man’s home, and in the evening, a toast is given to the man’s relatives.
As an executive of the Four Seasons Group and Chen Xia's most trusted cousin, Chen Xia arranged 9 Mercedes-Benz cars as wedding cars at once, and the first one was a Rolls-Royce, driven by Chen Xia himself.
Only Chen Qiaogu can enjoy this kind of treatment.
This really touched the little girl, and her loyalty to Chen Xia was priceless.
Chen Qiaogu's wedding room is located in the Four Seasons Community, a large house with four bedrooms and two living rooms.
Chen Xia originally wanted to give her a villa, but in 1990, there was no special villa community developed in Yuezhou, so he had to give up.
Chen Qiaogu, on the other hand, doesn’t care much about material things. What worries her more is that once she gets pregnant and gives birth to the child, will there still be a place for her in the company?
