Chapter 12: Flower Boy
When men are dominant, women dare not cause trouble anymore. At least now, Wang Mei doesn't dare to do anything. She used to dare to mess with Wang Tielu because Wang Da gave her the confidence. Now that Wang Da is impatient with her, she, who depends on Wang Da, doesn't dare to do anything.
Wang Tielu also saw this clearly, so a domineering CEO will always be a domineering CEO. Even if he turns into a child, he can still easily manipulate whoever he wants.
Of course, shrinking isn't always a good thing. Some things and the overall environment are beyond the control of a domineering CEO, especially in an environment where capitalism is seen as a form of evil. If a domineering CEO wants to match his profession, sorry, that's impossible for the next ten or twenty years. Wanting to get rich through business? Sorry, that's even more impossible, because his family's resources are limited. Even if he had some resources, he couldn't guarantee he wouldn't be taken advantage of; the risks outweigh the rewards.
Wang Tielu set off before dawn, but still ran into Xiao Taohua's family on the way.
However, he didn't go over there; instead, he avoided it from a distance.
Little Peach Blossom looked at the other person's small back and felt that this older brother was a bit strange.
This is the second time Little Peach Blossom has seen this older brother.
Lin Guangsheng and his wife had no idea that their little peach blossom had a photographic memory.
Of course, not knowing now doesn't mean we'll never know; we'll find out sooner or later.
"Mom and Dad, when we get to town, I want to look around before deciding what to buy."
"Okay, I'll do whatever Little Peach Blossom says."
"Thank you, Mom and Dad." Little Peach Blossom seemed to remember something and looked up at her father: "Dad, you and Mom work so hard to earn money, and you still have to support Little Peach Blossom."
Little Peach Blossom heard from her friends that their children are all raised by adults, and the adults work very hard every day, only able to rest a little during the Chinese New Year.
Little Peach Blossom was heartbroken.
It's so hard for her parents to work so hard to support her.
But she's still too young to help her parents with anything.
"Mom and Dad, I will eat well and grow up quickly so that you won't have to work so hard!"
“Mom and Dad aren’t tired, because seeing the little peach blossoms gives them extra motivation!” Lin Guangsheng said, nudging his daughter.
Little Peach Blossom didn't believe it.
Yin Qing added, "Because the little peach blossoms are the driving force behind our work."
Little Peach Blossom opened her mouth slightly, still not quite understanding.
"Raising Little Peach Blossom, seeing her beautiful every day makes Mom and Dad feel especially energetic! And Mom and Dad only need to sit in the office and use their brains, without having to work in the fields, so it's easier for us than for others. So Little Peach Blossom, Mom and Dad are really not tired. Our Little Peach Blossom needs to grow up slowly, otherwise Mom and Dad would feel disappointed if she grew up too quickly."
Really?
Lin Guangsheng and his wife nodded: "Really!"
"Alright then, little peach blossom will grow up slowly and stay with her dad and mom forever!"
"Okay, our daughter will stay with her parents!" the couple said with a smile.
With her parents' explanation, Xiao Taohua's worries subsided.
She's such a good girl; her parents are definitely not lying to her when they're talking so seriously.
Of course, Lin Guangsheng and his wife were not deceiving Xiao Taohua.
Both men were leaders of the town's factory. They didn't need to do things themselves; they only needed to visit the workshop from time to time, check on the production progress, make decisions, and write regular work reports.
Lin Guangsheng and his wife walked quickly, and soon arrived at the town amidst their laughter and chatter.
Seeing so many people, Little Peach Blossom's eyes widened: "Wow, there were so many people in the last episode!" It was the first time she had ever seen so many people.
"Yes, so Little Peach Blossom must not run around, otherwise some flower-picking thieves will snatch her away."
"Picking up flowers?"
"Yes, they are bad people who specialize in kidnapping children and taking them away from their parents!" Yin Qing emphasized, afraid that Xiao Taohua wouldn't know.
This was indeed serious in Little Peach Blossom's eyes. Take him away from his parents? No way, that's too terrifying! She had no idea there could be such wicked people among humans! Little Peach Blossom instinctively hugged her father's neck tightly, determined not to let go until they got home!
"Little Peach Blossom, Little Peach Blossom will never run away!" Tears welled up in her eyes from fright.
"Our little peach blossom is so well-behaved, she definitely won't run into any flower-picking thieves." Just after saying something serious, Yin Qing now comforted her with heartache.
However, some things need to be taken seriously, namely, letting children know about dangers.
"Yes!" Little Peach Blossom nodded emphatically.
"Come on, let's go to the market with Dad and Mom!" Lin Guangsheng said at the right moment.
"Go to the market."
The family of three blended into the crowd.
Believe it or not, there really were some people taking pictures of flowers at today's market.
The group of people squatted in the corner, silently watching the crowds coming and going. Because of their simple and honest appearance, they looked like kind-hearted villagers resting after a long day, attracting no attention at all.
"Big brother? Who have you set your sights on?" These days, although many people can't even get enough to eat, there are always those who are well-fed and powerful.
They've been in this line of work for quite some time now. They used to eat once every three days, but now they can eat three meals a day. They're very satisfied with their job and don't care whether they're doing unethical business or not.
"They're all being cared for by family members; it would be difficult to take any of them away today," the man referred to as the eldest brother sighed.
They may not succeed every time, but they want to try whenever there are many people around.
"Hey, isn't that because of Big Brother? Big Brother is the best!" he said, giving a thumbs up.
"Alright, let's take another look!"
"Brother, there are so many rich people here." Although they are not short of money now, they still can't help but feel envious when they see rich people. People are really different.
The older brother followed his younger brother's gaze and immediately spotted Little Peach Blossom and her family in the crowd.
It's no wonder she's so eye-catching; Little Peach Blossom's red cotton-padded jacket is so brand new, and the rest of the family is dressed so well that they look like they belong to a different social class than the people around them who are wearing patched clothes.
"There are quite a few rich people." The older brother nodded.
"Brother, I wish that girl wasn't a girl." If it were a boy, they would definitely take advantage of him; they love seeing well-off people fall into despair. Unlike the poor, well-off people care a lot about their children.
The older brother glanced at the younger brother: "Not necessarily." Even if they can't sell them, it's not bad to take the person with them and then throw them away or give them away as a bonus.
The younger brother's eyes lit up: "What does Big Brother mean?"
"Let's take a look first."
"Okay!"
Little Peach Blossom was completely unaware that someone was watching her. At that moment, she was staring intently at the things in the supply and marketing cooperative. There were so many things to eat and play with, a dazzling array of items.
This is Xiao Taohua. In Wang Tielu's opinion, the supply and marketing cooperative's goods were indeed insufficient, but he still had to come. The things outside were things that farmers already had, and the occasional purchases were only for farmers to exchange for what they lacked. The things in the supply and marketing cooperative were all hard currency, and many of them were imported from outside.
So, Little Peach Blossom and Wang Tielu met again.
