Strive for
Chen Jin's few words made Chen Yongxin laugh, and his mood finally improved.
I remembered that there was something else, so I quickly called my two uncles and told them not to come over.
When answering the phone, she glanced at Chen Jin and smiled, "Really, it's okay. I have my third sister here. My dad has help even if he's angry. It's really okay. Minmin, it's hard to say. My dad and my eldest aunt are calm now and are talking. Okay, don't worry."
Chen Jin glared at him, "Look at what you said, it's as if I came here just to quarrel."
Chen Yongxin laughed, "You are not here to quarrel, you are here to cooperate with my father. The process is not important, what is important is to have a good result. What do you think, will the aunt give Minmin a share of the investment in the end?"
"If she breaks up, will cousin Minmin definitely want the couple?" Chen Jin raised his eyebrows. "My future cousin's husband said so. What's the big deal? She can buy a house by herself. She doesn't care whether her aunt and uncle give money to their spouse to buy a house. Cousin Minmin is not unemployed. Look at her. Her family was well off before, right? She didn't spend money lavishly. The salary she earned must be enough for her to spend."
"so what?"
"So, if I were cousin Minmin, I wouldn't take the money, so I wouldn't have to work like a slave in the future. Cousin Minmin was reluctant to ruin her relationship with her aunt and uncle, but what do you think after today? Cousin Minmin is a bit arrogant."
Having been an only child for more than 20 years, how could I compromise and suffer at home for such a small amount of money? Even if my aunt and uncle agreed to give her some things, you can imagine that they wouldn't give her much.
"I think she is disappointed with my aunt and uncle now, and doesn't want to care about them anymore." Not to mention the relatives from the Gu family, Gu Minmin must hate the people from the Gu family now.
Chen Yongxin said, "If it's divided, then take it. Didn't you encourage her to ask for it before?"
"I never thought that my aunt and uncle were so cruel. I thought that after all they had raised my daughter for more than 20 years, they would be more lenient and give her some money." Who knew that they didn't want to give any money at all?
"Brother, I think my aunt and uncle are pretty scary."
Chen Yongxin sighed and agreed, "Who said it wasn't?"
"Forget it. I think my dad really doesn't want to care about them now. We will be estranged from them in this generation."
From now on, just treat him as an ordinary relative. If you have too much contact with such cold-hearted and unreliable relatives, they will only cause trouble to you and will not be of any help at all. Even the relationship has been almost ruined.
"It's far away, uncle is already this old, please worry less."
After standing in front of the inpatient building for a while, Chen Jin suddenly remembered that this was the Women's and Children's Hospital, where Chen Ting and Liu Chengzhi also worked. Thinking of these two people, Chen Jin asked, "Second brother, you and Sister Zhuang Yao, and Sister Ting and Liu Chengzhi, have you set a date for your wedding?"
I guess everyone isn't going to get married this year?
"It hasn't been finalized yet. Zhuang Yao and I plan to get married at the end of the year. Tingting said that she will have dinner with Liu Chengzhi's family after the New Year and then set a date. Their date will have to wait until next year at the earliest."
Chen Yongxin smiled and said, "I stopped Tingting before, but now it seems that she and Liu Chengzhi are getting along well."
At least now someone is watching her, she has a clear mind, knows how to build good relationships with her family, and has also learned the ways of the world. It's really helpless. She just couldn't listen to what her family members taught her, and only thought what outsiders said made sense to her.
However, she'd better learn from her mistakes. He and his eldest brother are not like his father, who work hard to raise his brothers and sisters without asking for anything in return. If Chen Ting dares to do the same as his eldest aunt in the future, he won't even look at her.
Forget it, let’s not talk about these bad things.
"How is the travel agency you and Yongfei are doing?"
"I just put in the money and wait for the dividends. I don't care about their management and operation. Anyway, I just check the account books every once in a while."
"I thought you had completely given up, but you still remember to check the account book?"
"Brothers and sisters should settle accounts clearly. If there is something wrong, we can sit down and talk it out before it gets serious. Once it gets serious, the brother-sister relationship will be gone." Chen Jin said with a smile, "I don't have much money, but if you have a small investment that doesn't cost a lot, you can call me. We still have brother-sister relationship now, right?"
Chen Yongxin smiled and patted her head, and deliberately said, "There is still a little left."
"Second brother, third sister? Why are you here?" Liu Chengzhi was about to go out the door when he saw Chen Yongxin and Chen Jin standing and chatting beside the door, so he went over to say hello.
Chen Jin raised his eyebrows. Now he has changed his words. It seems that good things are really coming. By next year, she will have to change her tune as well.
"Come and see my aunt." Chen Yongxin replied. He heard the nurse calling him from behind and refused to take time to visit her. "No need to go. Just do your thing."
Liu Chengzhi thought that perhaps the matters at Chen Ting's aunt's house had not been sorted out yet. Since Chen Ting's second brother had spoken, he would not go too far. He hurried over to say hello and then hurried back to his work.
They waited downstairs for almost an hour, and my uncle and my uncle's father-in-law came out together. My uncle's father-in-law didn't look very good, and my uncle's face looked average too.
My uncle-in-law had to go back to work, and my uncle also urged my second cousin to go back to work, and then he got into Chen Jin's car, "You are the most free in the family, so it's your turn, take my uncle out for a few laps and get some fresh air."
Chen Jin looked up and saw that the sky was cloudless and the sun was high in the sky. Was it the wind that he was blowing when he went out for a few laps? It's the air conditioner in the car! What’s the difference between this and using air conditioning at home? But the uncle had an expression that said, "I can't order you around anymore, right?" Chen Jin curled his lips, so what else could he do? We can only follow his wishes.
"Hey, where does this road go?"
"Let's go to the National Forest Park. The air there is good. I'll take you there to purify your temper."
"......" Chen Wenqiang glanced at Chen Jin, "Do you think your uncle is someone who can climb up?"
"Don't worry, I can't climb up either. Let's just walk around the foot of the mountain." Chen Jin knew her own strength too well. It was impossible for her to try to climb the mountain easily. There was also her uncle. If her uncle still needed her support, she would be doomed.
Chen Wenqiang was happy. No wonder the second brother kept talking about it. Are you afraid that you won’t have fun if you go out with the third sister? If all else fails, I can go to the beauty salon with her and stay there for the entire afternoon.
When you drive into the forest park, you will see big trees on both sides of the road. The car window was rolled down, and the fresh and moist air rushed in, which really cleansed my temper. I was thinking that I could make an appointment with old friends to come here next time to cultivate my character and talk about business, which would be nice.
"Why don't you ask me what your aunt and uncle and I have agreed on?"
Chen Jin didn't even turn his head, concentrating on the road ahead, "What do you say?"
Really perfunctory.
"I'll allocate 100,000 from the 500,000 investment to Minmin. After they have their baby, they'll take care of it themselves. We'll talk about retirement later. This is all I can get. They probably won't take the money for the wedding house. In order to have a son, they need to pay for the pregnancy and the extra births. It will take at least 200,000. They invested 500,000 before and bought a new house and a new car. I guess they don't have much money left."
But this is not an excuse. Although I don't have sufficient cash flow, I have other assets. If I really want to give, I can always give real estate if I can't give money.
Chen Jin chuckled, "They said they would take care of the children themselves in the future. Do you believe that, uncle? Aunt and uncle can still handle it for ten years now, but what about ten years later? Do they have to take care of my cousin's education? When aunt and uncle are old and need someone to take care of them, my cousin will be an adult. The issue of taking care of the elderly is not just the responsibility of cousin Minmin."
"Oh, uncle, please don't get involved in their affairs. I don't think Minmin really wants to fight for the little money they give her."
Chen Wenqiang looked at her, "Why is there only that little money? You have too much money now, right?"
"Why are you involving me again? Now we are talking about cousin Minmin. She may not still want the money that my aunt and uncle shared."
"No money, what's wrong with her parents recently?" The uncle said earnestly, "This person doesn't have to fight for this all the time. I've said it so many times, what's in your hands is the most real, why think so much about other things?"
Chen Jin was helpless, "Not everyone is as pragmatic as you, uncle. Cousin Minmin is just angry about the attitude of her aunt and uncle. Her faith has collapsed. She used to be an only child, and her aunt and uncle, as well as the relatives from the Gu family, all doted on her. Now that she suddenly has more brothers to share the favor, her parents and relatives have started to blackmail her into helping her brothers in the future."
"Sometimes, people just want to prove themselves. She took the money from her aunt and uncle, so she will always be inferior to them. She will have a reason to blame her for all her brother's problems. Who made her take the money from her parents? She should be grateful."
"If it were you, would you think the same?"
Chen Jin smiled, "Cousin Minmin is not as shameless as me. It's me. I'll take whatever I'm given and then part ways. It's useless for anyone to blackmail me morally. Anyway, I can be immoral."
If it was Qiaoxi Village that was demolished, she would definitely take whatever her grandfather gave her.
Chen Wenqiang was amused by her words, "You are only good at talking. When it's your turn, I'm afraid you won't take a penny."
"Who knows." After all, she had never encountered that kind of situation, and even if she made a choice, she might regret it later.
"Whatever. I've done what I should do. Let them do whatever they want."
Chen Wenqiang rested his elbows on the car window, calming down and enjoying the rare leisure moment.
After a few minutes of silence, Chen Wenqiang said, "That's all about your aunt and uncle. I don't plan to ask them to help with the family business or project investment in the future."
But now that the investment has been made and the contract has been signed, it cannot be divided. This is the only way.
People who are irresponsible and unreliable can only share the good times, but not the bad times. It makes no sense for them to stay away from risky things, and only reserve a share for them when there are benefits.
In fact, it could be seen from the fact that she was asked to participate in the construction of the building in Qiaoxi Village, but she didn't think too much about it at the time.
Chen Jin did not comment.
A big tree has branches. My uncle has been the "eldest brother like a father" for decades, and it is time for him to step down.
They originally just wanted to find a stone bench at the foot of the mountain to sit down and rest, but the uncle heard the owner of the convenience store say that a teahouse had opened halfway up the mountain with a beautiful environment. The uncle looked up and felt that halfway up the mountain was just so-so, so he called Chen Jin to go hiking.
The location halfway up the mountain was indeed not that bad. Just before Chen Jin began to consider giving up climbing, he arrived at the newly opened teahouse. The environment is beautiful and the aroma of tea is everywhere. Chen Jin drank Dahongpao as if it were water, gulping down several cups. After he recovered, he began to wander around the tea room.
Chen Wenqiang said that she had no patience, but he did not stop her. He soon started chatting with the tourists who came to taste tea, and they actually had a pretty good chat.
On the way back, Chen Wenqiang was in a happy mood. He looked at Chen Jin, then at the small "Congratulations and Get Rich" ornament on Chen Jin's car, and smiled so hard that his eyes narrowed.
"I'm lucky to go out today. My third sister is really good at choosing places. I'll go out more often in the future when I have nothing to do."
Chen Jin thought her uncle was quite interesting. He was chatting happily with others in the teahouse. People who didn't know him would think he was there to discuss business, so she jokingly asked, "Did you make a fortune?"
I saw my uncle picked up the small ornament and played with it, then he said mysteriously: "Let's go to Xichan Temple to calculate it some other day."
Going to Xichan Temple? Chen Jin had no objection. Her uncle was now doing whatever he wanted. Maybe this was the legendary menopause.
I went to my uncle's house for dinner in the evening. It was getting late as we chatted, so I didn't go back to the small western-style building, but went to live in the house in Hanlin Garden.
The next morning, Chen Jin changed his clothes and drove straight to Jinxiu Community.
Her supermarket officially opened today!
The name of this supermarket is also quite interesting - Today Supermarket.
Everyone who was free at home came to show their support. Chen Jia and Chen Yongan came as representatives of their respective families, and Meng Lin also brought Junjun to see.
In fact, there was nothing much to see. They just set off firecrackers to mark the opening of the business. There was nothing fancy.
A supermarket of 50 square meters is actually not small, and you can buy all daily necessities here. Currently, Tian Miao is the only one looking after the supermarket. She will see if she should hire one more person after a while. If it is too busy, she will need one more person, otherwise he will not be able to leave.
Tian Miao is now full of energy. "If we recruit someone, we can provide accommodation for him. He can just live in the same apartment with me."
Chen Jin has nine apartments in Jinxiu Community, and she has reserved one for her to live in. The others are rented out. A 100-square-meter house is too big for her to live in alone.
"No, we can hire someone who lives nearby. No need to have anyone come live with us."
If you live with others for a long time, there will be some friction. It's not like they don't have the conditions, so there's no need to put their own people in a difficult position.
Chen Jin packed up the remaining eight apartments and a shop here and handed them over to Tian Miao to help find tenants. There was a ready-made contract template, and each apartment was rented out for 330 yuan, which was lower than others. She did this to rent out the entire apartment so that it would be easier to collect rent.
Not only her house, but also the houses of her three uncles were given to Tian Miao, and she was given extra hard work pay.
"Third sister, I just saw Aunt Zhou. Her family also runs a fruit shop here."
The shop chosen by Aunt Zhou was not far from the one she chose, separated by the gate of the community.
Chen Jin's eyes lit up. Aunt Zhou, they haven't seen each other for a long time. He missed her so much!
"Come on, let's go over and say hello to Aunt Zhou."
