Chapter 4 The Wind of Destiny
Wang Anquan felt that his soul was severely shocked.
"Don't disappoint good girls, and don't waste bad girls."
Brother Zhu actually wrote it down in his memo?!
The bus arrived at the station and came to the community where Cheng Zhu and Wang Anquan lived.
Cheng Zhu got out of the car in a leisurely manner and Wang Anquan followed immediately.
At the entrance of the community, the two said goodbye because their homes were in two different directions.
"It's four o'clock in the afternoon now, and there's probably no one at home." Cheng Zhu thought.
His family runs a small restaurant called Yunlai Restaurant, which is located on the street opposite the community.
The hotel is not big, with only two rooms.
In those days, private chefs had not yet become popular, and the takeaway industry was still in its development stage. Therefore, these small restaurants usually made money from dine-in customers.
Cheng Zhu's father, Cheng Donglai, is the owner and chef of the restaurant.
Overall, the hotel business is neither good nor bad.
This meant that although Cheng Zhu's life was far from wealthy during his youth, he did not have to worry about food and clothing.
Old Cheng didn't have much ability, but he never let Little Cheng go hungry.
Speaking of which, running a restaurant business is quite hard. It is filled with smoke and fire every day, and occasionally you may encounter some difficult customers.
"Let me go home, change clothes and take a shower, and then go to the store for dinner at 5:30." Cheng Zhu thought.
After returning home, he went straight into the bathroom and looked in the mirror.
"Why is the hair so long and curled so ugly?" Cheng Zhu was a little bit dissatisfied.
These days, it seems that a middle-parted or 4:6 perm is quite popular. As soon as they graduate from high school, many students start to let themselves go and spend a lot of money at the barber shop.
"But this perfect hairline really makes people miss it." Cheng Zhu couldn't help but say.
Before taking a shower, Cheng Zhu went to the closet to find a change of clothes.
He searched for a long time and found that his trousers were either cropped or long enough to drag on the ground.
"Oh, I remember now. It's popular to show your ankles these days. Either wear cropped pants or roll up your trouser legs." Cheng Zhu smiled.
He vaguely remembered that there was a special way to roll up the trouser legs, which could make them look like skinny pants.
Finally, he settled on a pair of black sweatpants.
After taking a shower, he did not rush out, but sat at the desk in the room, picked up his mobile phone, and checked all his current assets.
"The total amount is 12,312 yuan." Cheng Zhu murmured.
After the college entrance examination, the elders in the family will give red envelopes.
People in Zhejiang Province are quite generous in giving red envelopes.
But considering his family situation, this amount of money is still too much.
The main reason is that his grandfather is an old man with money in his pocket. He always feels that he can't take the money with him when he gets old, so he is particularly generous to his grandchildren. He alone gave a red envelope of 5,000 yuan.
Cheng Zhu had already spent a small portion of the money during the summer vacation, and still had more than ten thousand left.
"If I remember correctly, almost all of this money will be spent on Li Xinyue during the summer vacation." Cheng Zhu recalled.
"From having more than 6 million in one card to having only more than 10,000 in total, wow, what a huge gap..." Cheng Zhu couldn't help but sigh.
But the strong never complain about the environment.
"You want to force me to be reborn, right?" Cheng Zhu thought, "It would be a bit unreasonable if I don't take this opportunity to make more money."
"What can I do with a capital of more than 10,000 yuan in 2014?" Cheng Zhu thought.
He looked at the date, today was July 13th, then he went online again to adapt to this era, and soon came up with the first step of the plan in his mind.
"Within 24 hours, I can multiply this money several times!"
With this thought in mind, he felt that if a person were reborn, the advantages would indeed be great.
Cheng Zhu couldn't help but think of a person who was jokingly called a person with a system by netizens, and thought of his life that was like a cool novel reflected in reality.
He is——"Leibs".
Our CEO Lei once said: "As long as you stand on the wind, even a pig can fly."
Returning to his youth, he felt that he had to grasp something more, otherwise his rebirth would be in vain.
"Go, young man, and meet the wind of destiny."
…
…
Tonight, Cheng Zhu will stand at the first wind outlet after his rebirth.
But before that, he had to go to Yunlai Restaurant for dinner.
You know what, on the way to the restaurant, he was inexplicably a little... nervous?
Beyond that, there’s excitement and anticipation.
"My parents are much younger now than they were back then."
"Little Youzi is still in kindergarten."
Xiao Youzi is his younger sister, named Cheng You, who is five and a half years old.
His family is typical of favoring girls over boys. His daughter is raised as a princess, while his son is at most a sword-carrying guard.
Arriving outside the Yunlai Hotel, Cheng Zhu took a deep breath and pushed the door open.
As soon as he entered Yunlai Restaurant, he saw his mother Xu Yun busying herself.
Many people may have this feeling, that is, as if their mother has been a middle-aged woman since they can remember.
How many people can still remember clearly what their mother looked like when she was young?
Xu Yun is exactly 40 years old this year. She is indeed a middle-aged woman, but compared with the appearance in Cheng Zhu's memory, she looks younger.
"What's wrong?" Xu Yun wondered, looking at her son blankly.
"Mom, you are so young. No, I mean you look really young today." Cheng Zhu blurted out.
"What nonsense are you talking about!" Xu Yun, who was always gentle, couldn't help but frown. She immediately turned around and walked away quickly, going to the refrigerator to get a bowl of iced mung bean soup for her son.
Mothers of this generation will ask their sons whether the food they cooked is delicious, but rarely ask their sons whether they look pretty today.
Likewise, children rarely praise their mothers for being young and pretty.
Cheng Zhu's idea is very simple. If you praise other women with all your strength, they may think you are a dog. But if you praise your mother casually, she will be happy all day.
Xu Yun was caught off guard by her son's unreasonable praise today.
After a long while, she pretended to be normal and went to the bathroom, looking at herself in the mirror again and again, a little embarrassed.
At first she didn't see anything, but as she watched...
"It seems... a little bit?" She couldn't help but whisper, joy spreading in her heart.
On the other side, Cheng Zhu was pretending to drink mung bean soup in his own restaurant. Sure enough, after a while, a little head popped out from beside the cash register and let out a roar like a dragon, trying to scare him.
Cheng Zhu looked at the little Nezha head and pretended to be scared to death, and the little girl immediately giggled.
He lifted the little girl up and looked at her chubby little face, big black and shiny eyes, and cute Nezha hair. He felt like he was struck by the beauty of his own sister.
"Little Youzi is only five years old this year, and she is the cutest now." Cheng Zhu thought.
He always missed his sister during this period.
At this stage, his younger sister Cheng You is the closest to him and is extremely attached to him.
Later, he ran from Hangzhou to Wucheng to start a business. He first did e-commerce and later did live streaming to sell goods. As a result, he spent less and less time with his family and only saw Cheng You a few times a year.
After Cheng Zhu lifted her up a few times, he put her down and let her sit next to him.
"Little Yuzi, let me feed you a few sips of mung bean soup?" he said.
"Wait a minute!" Cheng You, a little kid, raised a hand.
"What's the matter?" Cheng Zhu was stunned for a moment.
"Brother, I want to ask you something." said the little girl.
"You tell me what to say." Cheng Zhu said with a smile.
"I've been away from home all day today. Did you miss me?" Little Youzi raised her head and said with her chubby little face.
"Yes." Cheng Zhu said without hesitation, even with a double meaning.
It's not that I haven't seen you for a day, it's that I haven't seen you at this stage for many years.
Little Youzi immediately raised her little hand and stroked her chest, then she heaved a long sigh like a little adult, and said in a baby voice:
"That's good. I thought I was the only one secretly thinking about you in the hotel."
