Jianjun and Tingting first wrote a letter to their child in Xia City, preparing to tell them the good news.
Now everyone in the town and village knows the news, since they are now relying on Jianjun's family to collect mountain products for income.
Although many people are envious and feel a bit resentful, it's only right and proper to offer congratulations.
"Jianjun, Tingting, you two are so lucky. These are the eggs we brought. We don't have anything too fancy at home, so please don't mind them."
"Look at what you're saying, Aunt Liu. This is all from your heart. Don't be so formal. We all live in this village."
"You sit down and have some melon seeds, and these candies are for your grandson to sweeten his mouth."
Before Aunt Liu even left, people started arriving at the house one after another.
"Congratulations, Jianjun and Tingting! Your family is really good at raising children; they are all so accomplished."
"That's right, that's for sure. I knew Jianjun's family would rise up, and look at them now, they're even helping us earn a lot of income."
"Jianjun, these are things we brought for you. I know you are well-off now and don't lack food and drink, but they are all our heartfelt wishes."
"No way, thank you all. Oh, and here are some melon seeds and candy, please take some each."
"Then we won't bother you any longer. By the way, has your daughter Fubao found someone she likes? Let me tell you, someone asked me to ask Jianjun and you two what you think."
"It's just that other people's conditions are particularly good. Their children have formal jobs, and their children have their own houses. They don't have to worry about food and drink. Of course, Jianjun, your family's conditions are even better."
"Well, my daughter just got into Xia University, so studying is the most important thing. Let's talk about it later. Today is a good day, so let's not talk about this now."
"Okay, I'll let that family know."
"Okay, thank you for your help."
As more and more people came to the village, Jianjun and Tingting found it difficult to keep up with them all.
When all five children in the family were admitted to Xiamen University, they weren't this enthusiastic.
"Honey, almost everyone's here. Let's treat them back to a meal, otherwise it won't be right."
"Well, let's wait until a date is set. You said that when Cheng Cai and the others got into Xia University, not all of them came. I'd rather keep it quiet."
"It feels a bit troublesome, but they mean well, and I can understand. We've also harvested a lot of mountain products this year, which has brought them income as well."
“It’s fine to be a little enthusiastic, but we can’t be impolite, or we’ll make them feel uncomfortable.”
"We may not be here in the future, but our parents will definitely stay here."
"Alright, wife, let's get started. Let's set a date and have a celebration for your child's graduation. We don't know anyone in town, so let's hold it in the village."
"Okay, I'll go prepare it. There's so much sugar in the space, the kind we stockpiled before, but there aren't many people in our family who eat it, so it'll come in handy this time."
"Yes, Wang Hongjun should be informed of all this. He should be informed properly, otherwise people will think we're treating him like an outsider."
"Okay, no need to buy pork or anything else. As for vegetables, our village has given us quite a lot this time, so it should be enough."
"But we need to find a few people who are really good at cooking big pot dishes. I'll ask Aunt Liu tomorrow."
"Okay, get it done as soon as possible. People from our village have given us quite a lot of things."
"I'll make a note of who brought us something. If they need something in return, we should give them something in return."
"Okay, thank you for your hard work, wife. I'll go get the mountain produce that everyone in the village brought and record it in the ledger."
“I have an idea, which is to discuss it with the people in the village, and most importantly, with Uncle Guo.”
“His words carry more weight in the village than anyone else’s, which is beneficial to everyone.”
"What are you planning to do, honey? Do you have any ideas?"
"Think about it, by the time the year after next arrives, many people in the village will eventually go to Guangdong to work in large numbers."
"They left their hometowns, but they had no choice but to support their families and take on the responsibility of supporting them. If they had any other options, I don't think they would have gone to Guangdong."
"So what do you mean?"
"I want them to get involved in animal husbandry, such as raising pigs, cattle, sheep, chickens, ducks and geese. Then we'll find some technical guidance."
“We provide the technology and the funds, and we give them a certain amount of money each month. Or, if there are people who are willing to do breeding, we sign a contract and give them priority in purchasing our products.”
"Then, honey, shall we accept the girls from our own village?"
"Of course not, we're opening a chain of restaurants. Do you think this is enough?"
"I understand, but will they agree?"
"They will agree. Think about it, they've made a lot of money buying mountain products, so I think they will."
"The key is that it's also good for them. If it were the two of us, we wouldn't want to go out to work either. The money we can earn at home is the same as going to Guangdong. If it were you, you wouldn't want to go either."
"Okay, it's settled then. We'll see what their choice is: they can raise them themselves or they can adopt them."
"Yes, if the village makes a lot of money, won't there be even more people going to the city to buy clothes and eat out?"
"I think opening a stationery store and a toy store later would be about right, but it has to be attractive and fun."
"I think there is so much to do. What we need is talent. Right now, we have nothing to lack."
"Yes, hiring is the most important thing, but right now, people's best option is a formal job."
"There's nothing we can do. We'll see what our plans are after our son graduates."
