Break up
Chen Jin was still thinking about having dinner with Shen Baichuan, but he received a call from his second cousin, saying that Zhuang Yao had given birth and was now in the hospital, and it was a baby girl.
Chen Jin didn't have time to go find Shen Baichuan for dinner, and it was not convenient to take Daju with him, so he said goodbye to Uncle Wang and drove straight to the Women and Children's Hospital in Xicheng District.
When he arrived at the hospital, as soon as Chen Jin entered the corridor, he saw his third uncle wandering outside the corridor.
My eldest uncle was still busy working in the company. When my third uncle saw her, he said that she seemed to have lost some weight and wondered if she was too busy at work.
"Ah?" Chen Jin quickly touched his face, remembering that he had applied some face cream before going out today. He also watched a movie with Shen Baichuan late last night. He probably didn't get enough sleep, so he didn't look very well.
"I haven't lost weight." Moreover, because I wear more clothes in winter, I look a little fatter.
Chen Jin looked into the ward and saw that his aunt and Zhuang Yao's mother, Aunt Mo, were both there. Zhuang Yao was sleeping and resting. Inside, her aunt and Aunt Mo were packing things that the baby would need. It was quiet.
She looked around and didn't see the baby. She asked her third uncle and found out that her second cousin and third aunt had taken the baby to the nurse for a check-up.
Junjun is the only young person in the family. Now there is finally a baby. Although my third uncle is not my biological grandfather, we are all very happy.
Minmin’s cousin is also pregnant and will give birth this year, but they live far away and since she has the baby, they can’t see each other often.
"Next it will be your third brother's turn." said your third uncle with a smile.
Just the third cousin? He is still single now. It will take who knows when he will find a partner, get married and have children.
Chen Jin did not burst his uncle's fantasy. She was afraid that her third uncle would ask her when she planned to have a child... Her scalp tingled just thinking about it.
After my aunt and Aunt Mo finished packing, they left. This floor is full of single wards. They dare not speak loudly in the corridor and always speak in low voices.
After saying hello and asking about Zhuang Yao's situation, Chen Jin didn't know what to say.
Her aunt told her not to stay here and to focus on her own work.
"I've almost finished what I need to do. Now that I'm here, I have to see the baby before I leave."
As soon as I finished speaking, my second cousin and third aunt came back.
My second cousin looked like he was holding a bomb, his whole face was tense.
Chen Jin wanted to laugh when he saw this, and regretted not bringing his camera to take a picture of him.
But when her second cousin encouraged her to hold the baby as well, Chen Jin took over. The teasing smile on her face disappeared completely, and she became scared, as if she had just been hit by a bomb.
Now it was the others' turn to laugh at her.
It’s just a tiny little kid, and I can’t tell who he looks like at the moment.
The name was decided early on, Chen Anhe. Take two words from the sentence "All directions are peaceful, and the wind blows and the crops are all growing."
Chen Jin looked at his complacent second cousin in surprise and said, "Second brother, you are still the most educated one."
The second cousin said without any modesty: "That's right."
I almost tore the book apart, and finally found something that I am particularly satisfied with.
Adults and children were all asleep, and the house was very quiet.
But it was not convenient to squeeze so many people into the ward, so after seeing the adults and children, Chen Jin was about to go back. My third uncle and aunt were also getting ready to leave, and Chen Jin happened to be driving them back.
When I went downstairs, I met Liu Chengzhi who was walking in a hurry and seemed to be busy with work. As soon as he came over to say hello, his third uncle sent him away and told him to get back to work.
When sending my third uncle and aunt back to the rose garden, my third uncle mentioned that he wanted to buy a piece of land in a village in the suburbs to build a house, or he could also buy one in a small town.
But buying a house is not the point. The point is to start planning the rooms upstairs and downstairs and decide which house to leave for the children. After my third cousin and Chen Yongan get married and have children, they will live on which floor...
Chen Jin clearly saw his third aunt rolling her eyes in the rearview mirror. "I think you're just bored and thinking about nonsense all day. I urged the third child to find a partner, but you contradicted me and said you couldn't let your career suffer."
“That’s not a conflict…”
"There is no conflict, but do you think he has time to find a partner now?" Third Aunt snorted, "You are the only one who talks, making it seem like I only know how to urge him to find a partner. Every age has its own things to do. He was busy with work before, and I didn't stop him. Now that the travel agency is doing well, it's normal for him to consider personal issues, right?"
"Of course, of course, go and talk to him again."
"I won't tell you. If you want to tell me, you can tell me yourself." Third aunt turned her head and looked out the window.
Chen Jin, who was driving, grinned but didn't dare laugh out loud. After sending them downstairs, he comforted them, "Uncle, aunt, don't worry. My brother knows what he is doing. He will definitely not be single for the rest of his life."
Third Aunt sighed, "I'm too lazy to talk about him."
Seeing two men standing not far away who looked ferocious, he said, "Forget it, it doesn't matter if we look for them or not, as long as they don't mess around outside."
"Look, the matter of the youngest son of the village chief of Qiaoxi Village has not been resolved yet. He has offended the daughter of the martial arts master. The people from the martial arts school come to guard him every day, unless he stays at home."
Chen Jin quickly rolled down the car window and stuck his head out to look, and sure enough, he saw two burly men in white short-sleeved shirts guarding downstairs in front.
The temperature today is in single digits, and there are people wearing short sleeves outside in the wind!
Liu Guangyao has hit a wall.
"Okay, stop looking. There's nothing to see. Why don't you eat first and then go back?"
Chen Jin shook his head, "I'd better go back. Daju is still in the company. If I don't go back to pick him up, he'll be angry again."
"Tsk! How come raising a cat is like raising a baby?" Third aunt muttered, and waited until Chen Jin drove out of the community before turning back with Third Uncle.
"Young people nowadays don't learn good deeds when they have a little money. If the third brother dares to do that, I'll break his legs!"
The third uncle glanced at her and said, "The children in our family are good. They don't learn bad things because they don't have money..."
"Haven't you learned bad habits yet? The third child has a little money and buys that expensive car. If he had a few million, I wouldn't say anything about buying a 200,000 yuan car. But he has 200,000 yuan and buys a 200,000 yuan car." "The child earned his own money, so why should you care what he buys? Just don't do bad things."
"You just have to argue with me, don't you?"
My third uncle opened his mouth and finally closed it. They can quarrel over the smallest things these days, so he'd better just shut up.
—
After going back and forth between Dongcheng District and Xicheng District, when Chen Jin returned to the company, the employees at Baiyou had already left work. In the guard room, Uncle Wang also handed over the work to the person on duty at night. Daju and Dahuang followed and lay down in the guard room. The small solar heater cast a layer of warm yellow light on them.
Chen Jin picked up Daju and took a look at the furniture company across the street when he went home. There were workers who had just finished their meal and were walking back to the company with their hands folded behind their backs.
In order to issue orders in time, the workshop has to work overtime.
As the holidays approached, Chen Jin was basically busy with his work as a counselor. In fact, there was not much to do, but it was a bit trivial and it was not easy to take leave since he had to be in the office.
And she didn't need to take leave now, as there were people in charge of the two companies she was in charge of. Both Geng Xin and Director Gao reported on the situation when she went to the company on Saturdays.
Occasionally, cousin Meng Chong would talk to her about the situation in the company.
The busiest person is Shen Baichuan, who broke the news about his second and third uncles last time, and now people are ganging up on him.
However, she saw that Shen Baichuan was quite happy that they joined forces to deal with him, and when she said that she was going to the company to deal with things, her eyebrows were full of joy.
Her friends were even busier. Lin Xinran and Chen Lu were busy recruiting students for the winter vacation classes, and she hadn't seen them for almost a month.
But Yang Qian told her not to talk to them.
"They were fine when there were outsiders around, but they often quarreled over work in private. It's wrong to help anyone, and I'm too lazy to ask, so that I don't have to be the judge if I know."
Chen Jin sighed. She didn't want to be a referee. It would be wrong to help anyone.
Then she should not take the initiative to approach them and let them handle it themselves.
The tutoring organization they jointly established thought of Sifang Travel Agency.
Chen Jin called his third cousin and went to the office of Sifang Travel Agency on another weekend.
She hadn't been here for a long time, and the newcomers from Sifang Travel Agency didn't recognize her. It just so happened that Chen Jin was chatting with someone at the front desk.
The third cousin came downstairs to meet him. "You didn't even call me when you got here. Are you going on an incognito tour?"
Chen Jin laughed, "I'm not well prepared. I should have brought the Imperial Sword with me."
"I just happened to have something to tell you."
The third cousin looked relaxed, but Chen Jin always felt that something important had happened.
really.
As soon as he entered his third cousin's office, he closed the door and said directly: "Huang Hao said he wanted to sell his shares and asked the three of us if we wanted them. If not, he would sell the shares to other shareholders."
It was agreed upon when the contract was signed. If the four of them wanted to withdraw, the shares would be sold to the three of them first. Only when the three of them no longer wanted them could the shares be sold to others.
But... Chen Jin twisted his fingers and asked, "What does Brother Jiang think?"
"He said he didn't want it anymore. He had just used the money to buy a house and was planning to get married, so he didn't have any extra money."
Chen Jin stood by the office window and looked down. The flowers planted in the yard now had only some green leaves left, swaying in the cold wind.
The third cousin continued, "Jiang Weijun doesn't want it, do you want it? Let's split it in half."
Chen Jin shook his head and asked instead, "Third brother, how much can you take?"
"At most 18%. I don't have that much money. I have to borrow part from my parents to get 18%." The third cousin said, "These shares can't be distributed to other people. If... it's better this way. In the future, the majority of the shares will be with us, so we don't have to be tied down."
"Okay, Third Brother, you take 18%. I'll take the rest. I still have some money, but I can't lend it to you. I have to keep the money for buying a house in March."
The third cousin nodded, "Okay, that's settled. I'll call you over after you sign it."
I have solved a problem and I feel pretty good.
"What building are you buying in March? The old department store in the old city? Are you really buying it? Are you not going to build your building?"
"I want to buy it, but I don't know if I can buy it." Chen Jin mentioned the potential competitors and said, "Others are very strong, so we can only rely on luck."
"It's okay, uncle said you have good luck with money." The third cousin laughed. Then she asked about Daju, and thought it was strange that she didn't bring Daju out today.
“Shen Baichuan is at home, so I put Daju at home.”
"Humph, you two are dating as if you're getting married." The third cousin stared at her warily for a long time and said, "Don't announce your marriage suddenly."
Chen Jin rolled his eyes in response.
"Hey, my mom has been very irritable lately. Maybe she's entering menopause. I want to find something for her to do to distract her. Can you give me some advice?"
Before, they didn’t know the word “menopause” at all. They only said that older people had bad tempers. It was not until my aunt said that my uncle was in menopause that everyone realized that as people age, their body functions change, which can lead to changes in their psychology, and their tempers will also change.
Chen Jin couldn't think of any good ideas for the time being, so he said he would go back and think about it.
The two chatted about everything from work to life, and even the hottest gossip in Rose Garden recently - that Liu Guangyao was blocked in the community by people from the martial arts school and was afraid to go out.
But there was no mention of why Huang Hao wanted to sell his shares. There are only a few situations: either they don't want to do it anymore, or they want to cash out and make money, or they want to start a new business.
Since the third cousin didn’t say anything, Chen Jin didn’t ask.
Chen Jin didn't ask, and the third cousin didn't say anything either.
Reunion and separation are common things. As long as there is no quarrel, it is better to part ways in peace.
There was a knock on the office door. Jiang Weijun looked at his third cousin's big face and said with a smile, "I heard that a beautiful girl came to see you, but you still said you didn't want to find a partner... Oh my god, it's my third sister!"
Chen Jin laughed out loud, "Yeah, you didn't expect that, did you?"
“Hehe, I was saying, how could there be a beautiful woman looking for Lao Chen, there is only the third sister.”
Jiang Weijun said, "It's rare for Third Sister to come over, let's go out for dinner together. Third Sister's company is very successful now, please tell us the secret of her success."
"Haha, that's exaggerating, Brother Jiang."
Since his third cousin still had some things to deal with, Chen Jin followed Jiang Weijun to visit each department again and got to know the people in the company again.
Jiang Weijun joked, "You should come here more often in the future, otherwise no one in the company will know you are the boss."
"It's okay, as long as I make money." She interfered in the company's affairs again, not caring whether they knew whether she was the boss or not. New people who join her company may not even know that she is the boss.
One of the three independent offices on the second floor is now vacant and was previously used by Huang Hao.
When they went out to eat, Jiang Weijun acted like a drunk without drinking a drop of alcohol. He was a grown man, but he burst into tears without warning, which stunned Chen Jin.
"No, Brother Jiang, it's not that serious. Did something happen?"
Jiang Weijun waved his hands and said in a choked voice, "Nothing happened. I thought the three of us, good brothers for more than ten years, had broken up and had to start a new business to fight."
The third cousin frowned and put down his chopsticks, patted Jiang Weijun on the shoulder and said, "Everyone has their own aspirations. There's nothing wrong with that. Don't think too much about it."
"Think about when we first started talking about setting up a travel agency together, we also said we wanted to open Sifang Travel Agency all over the country. I... I feel bad, don't try to persuade me, let me finish."
Chen Jin sighed. He didn't expect that Jiang Weijun, who looked the strongest, was actually the most emotional. He cried bitterly and talked about the time when they first went on field trips together, then they talked about setting up a travel agency, making money, and everyone buying cars and houses... and finally talked about breaking up, and cried again.
Chen Jin sorted out the information from Jiang Weijun's confusing words: the two of them disagreed with arranging for people with connections to come in, and there was a lot of pressure from Huang Hao's family, who kept looking for Huang Hao from time to time and praised him highly, thinking that he had the experience and could definitely go out on a trip alone. In addition, when the three of them had disagreements at work and quarreled, the third cousin and Jiang Weijun often had the same opinion, so Huang Hao felt uncomfortable and simply sold his shares and used the money to start his own travel company.
Jiang Weijun was still scolding Huang Hao's confused family members, but according to her, it might not be Huang Hao himself who had this idea. The waiter who brought the dishes slowed down his movements and looked at Jiang Weijun from time to time.
Chen Jin... Chen Jin looked at the fragrant dishes on the table, and then at Jiang Weijun who was crying uncontrollably. She felt that the chopsticks in her hand were so heavy that she couldn't lift them.
Jiang Weijun was still sad but still greeted Chen Jin, saying, "Third sister, eat and don't worry about me. This braised fish is really good."
So Chen Jin really started eating.
Even if the sky falls, you still have to eat!
