Chapter 249 Recent Developments of the Shen Family



Zhou Cunming, of course, had no objections.

Although he explained, his mother still didn't believe him, so he could only rely on the test results to prove that he hadn't been messing around outside.

"Mom, why did you suddenly ask me if I've been messing around outside?" Zhou Cunming asked curiously.

He's been a driver for the transport team for many years now.

It was only then that his mother remembered to ask him to confirm whether he had been messing around.

Chen Suwen raised an eyebrow. "Don't you know there's been a crackdown lately? If you cause trouble outside and get a bad reputation, you could be arrested for hooliganism and your life could be in danger."

Chen Suwen recalled seeing a rumor that in the 1980s a woman was arrested for hooliganism for having multiple relationships at the same time, and was subsequently executed.

Chen Su didn't know if the rumor was true or false, but she did know that many crimes were severely punished during the crackdown, and some might even be framed.

However, because we need to crack down on crime severely, we must impose heavy sentences.

Chen Suwen didn't want her adopted son to get arrested by accident.

"Mom, don't worry, I will definitely be careful with my words and actions and won't give anyone the chance to frame me."

He now has a happy family and a comfortable life, but he doesn't want to die halfway through and make a mess of his life.

"Alright, let's confirm. It'll probably be the day after tomorrow when everyone goes to the hospital for checkups."

"Remember, you need to fast before the test, so don't eat anything that day."

"Bring your parents-in-law, your wife, and your children; we're all going for a checkup."

Chen Suwen also knew that Zhou Cunming's parents-in-law would definitely pay for their own medical checkups, and she would not help her in-laws pay for these expenses.

If she pays the money, then should she also pay for the money of Zhou Cunzhi and Zhou Cunzong's parents-in-law?

And if her daughter's in-laws need to have a check-up, shouldn't she also have to pay for it?

Therefore, when Zhou Cunming's parents-in-law needed to go for checkups, he would definitely pay for it himself, and Chen Suwen would not bear any responsibility.

Zhou Cunming had no objections. He assured his mother that he would definitely bring the whole family to the hospital to meet them the day after tomorrow, and then sent his mother out.

...

The Zhou family plans to go for a check-up the day after tomorrow, and Xu Huixue also thought of her elderly parents.

Her brothers have all returned to Guangzhou. Her eldest brother is still working in the factory and did not risk taking the college entrance examination.

Her brothers and sisters who went to the countryside also took the college entrance examination, but only one of them passed. The others have now returned to the city and started small businesses.

It doesn't matter if you don't get into university or get a job; you can make some money by doing small business.

Although Xu Huixue's older sister's sewing skills are not as good as hers, they are still quite good. With the ingenuity of some of Xu Huixue's designs, she is also able to earn some money.

Xu Huixue's brothers can make money whether they work on construction sites, wholesale goods to sell at stalls, or sell to the rural areas where they work.

There are plenty of goods in Guangzhou, and selling them to areas with scarce resources can be very profitable.

Under Xu Huixue's guidance—actually after consulting Chen Suwen—Xu Huixue's brothers from her maternal family began to cooperate with people from the rural areas where they were sent, as well as with people from their wives' maternal families.

They ship the goods over here, and people sell them there. The profits are then split equally, so everyone makes a profit.

As for whether we'll part ways once our careers grow bigger, I haven't thought that far ahead yet.

Xu Huixue's family is doing better and better now, and her parents are in a much better mood, but she is still concerned about her parents' health and plans to have them get checked out as well.

And her brothers and sisters, especially those who went to the countryside as educated youth, who knows if they suffered from health problems while in the countryside.

If any problems are detected early, they can be properly cared for and treated.

Xu Huixue took her husband and children back to her parents' home, while Shen Wenxiu also planned to go back to see her parents.

Even though she had resented that her parents weren't as good to her as they were to her younger brother, she still couldn't bring herself to abandon them.

She couldn't live with her own conscience, and the people around her were her and her parents' people, so they wouldn't really ignore her.

So Shen Wenxiu took her husband with her when she returned to her parents' home, but left her two daughters behind.

Shen Wenxiu also brought Zhou Shan and Zhou Hu back to her parents' home, but unfortunately her parents weren't very enthusiastic about their daughters.

I always felt that these were two little girls, and they would definitely not amount to anything in the future. Besides, once a daughter is married, she is like water spilled from a bowl; raising daughters is simply for someone else's benefit.

Therefore, Shen Yunfei and He Caiping were rather indifferent to Zhou Shan and Zhou Hu, and preferred their eldest grandson.

Over the years, Shen Wencai has gotten married.

Yes, Shen Wencai, who had a limp, got married. Even though he used to be arrogant and looked down on many girls from poor families and with ordinary looks, as he got older, he had no choice but to "compromise".

The main reason is that Fu Guixiang, whom Wang Shaohua married on Guangming Road, has performed well and taken good care of Wang Shaohua.

So He Caiping followed suit and went to the countryside to find a girl who was not bad-looking but also very capable to marry her son.

Unlike the Wang family, she didn't offer a bride price of over three hundred yuan, or even one hundred yuan; she only gave them eighty yuan.

Although the girl was good-looking and very capable, and hardworking, her family was extremely patriarchal.

Otherwise, how could she have remained unmarried until she was almost twenty?
