"Wife, why don't you just quit your job and we can open a housekeeping service company together. I'll help you. I believe our company can be successful." Chen Wensheng said with a sharp look in his eyes.
Wang Xiumei couldn't help but be stunned when she heard this.
Their wedding date was approaching, and she wanted him to quit his job and try to start some business to plan for their future. After all, the income from being a security guard was not enough to support the family.
Unexpectedly, he persuaded her to quit her job and start a business with him.
It has to be said that Chen Wensheng's proposal really made her excited, because she had thought about quitting her job and starting a business a long time ago, but the idea was shelved due to financial problems.
Now, if she starts a business with her husband, with the financial support of her parents-in-law, a mere tens of thousands of start-up capital would not be a problem at all.
Thinking of this, Wang Xiumei said, "I asked you to find a job just to train you, so you can quit your security job at any time. But my job is a career-based one, so it's not a small matter if you want to quit. At least you have to discuss it with my parents and your parents."
Chen Wensheng nodded and said, "We should discuss it with our parents, but there is no rush. It won't be too late to discuss it with them after we have the wedding banquet."
Wang Xiumei hummed and said, "It's a good opportunity to take this time to think about it."
Chen Wensheng smiled and said, "Wife, you don't need to worry too much. If you feel happy being a teacher, then continue to be a teacher. If you think it's interesting to start a housekeeping service company, then quit your job and work with me. Anyway, we have a house and a car, and we bought them in full. Living a casual life is better than those who have mortgages and car loans, don't you think?"
Wang Xiumei smiled and said, "That's true. Let's not dwell on it. Let's eat!"
"Well, honey, this tofu vermicelli you made is delicious."
"If it tastes good, eat more."
…
Mid-Autumn Festival.
On this day, Jiang Fei's family of three, Jiang Xue's family of three, and Jiang Feng's family of three, all took Jiang Feng's super luxurious RV back to Longshan Village to spend the holiday with their parents.
My uncle's family also came back with grandma.
Ever since Jiang Feng became a matchmaker, any young man or girl in Longshan Village who wants to find a partner will go to the Jiang family to ask for a matchmaker. In the past two years, all the newly married couples in the village have harmonious families, loving husband and wife, and live a prosperous life.
This made Jiang Feng the most popular person in the village. Every time he came back from outside, the villagers would come over to chat with him.
This time was no exception. Knowing that Jiang Feng was coming back to celebrate the festival, the gossipy women in the village came to visit him, bringing local specialties such as sauerkraut, dried radishes, dried sweet potatoes, big potatoes, and sweet potatoes.
Since they were all related, Jiang Feng naturally had to chat with them, and when they left he would at least give them a box of mooncakes. Anyway, they had so many mooncakes that they could set up a stall to sell them.
No one came to visit until lunch time in the afternoon.
Grandma was the happiest to see this grand occasion.
While eating, grandma said with emotion: "Xiao Feng, if your grandpa was still alive, he would be so happy to see this scene today."
For people of my grandmother's generation, no matter how successful their children and grandchildren are outside, it is not as prestigious as being respected in the village.
Grandma suddenly mentioned Jiang Feng's deceased grandfather, which made everyone sad. Grandpa died of illness when Jiang Feng was in junior high school.
My uncle continued, "Dad is very proud. If he knew what happened to our family in the village, I don't know how happy he would be."
Jiang Feng smiled and said, "Grandma, then you should exercise well and try to live past 100 years old. You can take a good look at the development of our Jiang family. When you die, you can tell grandpa about it in the underworld."
Grandma smiled and said, "Okay, I'll listen to my dear grandson and keep fit. We've survived those difficult times before, and now we live such a happy life. It would be a big loss if we don't live a few more years!"
Everyone couldn't help but laugh when they heard this.
In the evening, the Jiang family set up a barbecue at the door. They set up more than a dozen barbecue grills and surrounded several large charcoal fires. They prepared a lot of barbecue ingredients such as chicken wings, chicken legs, hot dogs, corn, eggplant, leeks, bone-in meat, etc., as well as several slaughtered sheep.
In addition, dozens of boxes of beer were prepared, as well as a considerable amount of red and white wine, and the villagers were invited to join in the barbecue and moon-watching celebrations for the Mid-Autumn Festival.
The whole scene was extremely lively.
The aroma of barbecue could be smelled within a hundred meters, making the children in the village almost cry with greed.
Barbecue is not suitable for pregnant women, so Huang Lingwei and her sister-in-law, sister-in-law and others did not join in the fun, but chatted in the living room.
Next to one of the charcoal fires, a boy about fourteen or fifteen years old came up to Jiang Feng and said with a smile, "Uncle Feng, I know you are good at matchmaking. Can you introduce me to someone?"
The young man's name is Jiang Wenqiang, and according to seniority he should call Jiang Feng uncle.
Jiang Feng glanced at him and said, "Wen Qiang, how old are you? Do you want to find a partner?"
Jiang Wenqiang said: "Uncle Feng, I will be fifteen soon, not young anymore. And let me tell you, I had a classmate who dared to flirt with his teacher when he was in elementary school!"
Jiang Feng glared and said, "You dare to flirt with your teacher in elementary school?" Are kids nowadays so brave?
Jiang Wenqiang said with admiration, "This is true. When he was in sixth grade, he secretly used his father's phone to have an online romance with a pretty female teacher in his school. He even made an appointment to meet the female teacher!"
Jiang Feng was aroused by the gossip and asked quickly, "Then what happened? What was the reaction of the female teacher after they met?"
Jiang Wenqiang laughed and said, "Of course she was scolded. I heard from my classmate that the female teacher's face was almost bleeding. She was so embarrassed!"
Jiang Feng couldn't help but sigh: "Your classmate is really talented, doesn't his father know about this?"
Jiang Wenqiang chuckled and said, "I didn't know at first, but later I found out, and then my classmate was severely beaten by his father."
Jiang Feng smiled and said, "Well done. Fortunately, his father found out first. If his mother had found out, his father wouldn't have been able to explain himself even if he had ten mouths."
Jiang Wenqiang said, "Uncle Feng, I'm already in the third year of junior high school. If I don't have a girlfriend, how can I show off to my classmates when I go to high school? So, Uncle Feng, can you introduce me to a date?"
Jiang Feng said with a smile: "Wen Qiang, I dare not help you with this matter. If your father knew about it, he would twist your ears!"
Jiang Wenqiang said, "Uncle Feng, as long as you don't tell my dad, he won't know about it, right?"
Seeing that he was serious, Jiang Feng couldn't help but pat his shoulder and advised: "Wen Qiang, it's okay if you want to find a partner. When you come of age, I will definitely help you find a good girl. But now you are not an adult yet, you should focus on studying and stop thinking about other things all day long. If you don't study hard now, you won't get any good girls in the future. Do you understand?"
Jiang Wenqiang said somewhat listlessly: "Uncle Feng, I also want to study hard, but my grades from elementary school to junior high school have been mediocre. I'm probably not cut out for studying."
"That's because you don't study hard enough."
Jiang Feng said earnestly: "Wen Qiang, I don't know how many times the teacher has emphasized the importance of studying hard, so I won't repeat it.
Regarding the question of studying, let me tell you this: if you study hard, your wife will be the prettiest girl in the class. If you don’t study hard, your wife will be the ugliest girl in the class.
So, whether you want to study hard or not is up to you!"
Jiang Wenqiang thought of the ugliest girl in the class and shuddered. He said, "Uncle Feng, are you trying to scare me?"
Jiang Feng said: "I'm not trying to scare you. Think about it, you are not a second-generation rich man, and you don't have any education. What else can you do after you enter society besides working?"
Jiang Wenqiang said: "But even wage earners can marry beautiful wives!"
Jiang Feng said: "I don't deny that there are such examples, but they are only a very small number, just like winning the lottery, the probability is negligible. Most wage earners, unless they are very handsome or good at speaking and know how to please girls, it would be good enough to get a wife. Do you still want to pick a beautiful one?
But if you study hard, it will be different. If you graduate from Tsinghua or Peking University, your future will be much brighter than that of an ordinary worker. You can pick any pretty girl you want!"
Jiang Wenqiang was almost convinced.
Jiang Feng patted his shoulder again and said, "Wen Qiang, think about it carefully. Are you willing to muddle through and live with the ugliest female classmate in the future? Or are you willing to study hard and live with the beautiful female classmate in the future?"
Jiang Wenqiang thought about the pretty girl's looks, and then thought about the scary face of the ugliest girl in the class. His heart instantly became firm, and he said, "Uncle Feng, I understand. I must study hard, and I will never marry the ugliest girl, even if I am beaten to death."
Jiang Feng nodded with satisfaction and said, "Then work hard. How much you suffer now is related to the appearance of your future wife. Your uncle Feng suffered a lot when I was studying. Now look at your aunt Feng. Is she the most beautiful in the village?"
Jiang Wenqiang nodded his head like a chick pecking at rice. Aunt Feng's beauty was so great that no one in their Longshan Village or even in Qinghe Town could be compared with her. Aunt Feng was even more beautiful than many female stars on TV.
Uncle Feng is indeed the best student in Longshan Village.
It seems that Uncle Feng really didn't fool him. The appearance of his future wife will really depend on how much hardship he has to endure in his studies now.
At this moment, Jiang Wenqiang really made up his mind that he must study hard. Even if he could not compare with Uncle Feng, he had to get into a good university and then marry a beautiful girl.
Jiang Feng saw all this and couldn't help but smile. He now aroused Jiang Wenqiang's determination to study hard, but how long this determination can last depends on himself!
…
At the same time, Wang Xiumei was also spending the Mid-Autumn Festival with her parents in her hometown.
When the family was sitting at the door admiring the moon, Wang Xiumei brought up the topic of quitting her job and starting a business.
She said, "Dad, Mom, I have something to discuss with you."
"What's the matter?" the Queen Mother asked.
Wang Xiumei looked at the full moon in the sky and said with hope for the future: "After I marry Chen Wensheng, I want to quit my job and start a business with him. What do you think?"
The Queen Mother was surprised and asked, "You want to quit your job and start a business?"
Wang's father sat up straight at once. He was shocked by his daughter's idea.
Wang Xiumei nodded and said, "Well, originally I just wanted Chen Wensheng to quit his job and do something. After all, the income from being a security guard in the county may not even be enough for living expenses.
However, you all know him, and I'm not sure if he can run a business on his own, so after thinking about it, I decided I might as well quit my job and start a business with him!"
Wang's father said, "Amei, you have to think this through. Teachers are the most respected profession with the most vacation time and the most stable income!"
The Queen Mother asked, "Amei, if you resign, what kind of business do you plan to start?"
Wang Xiumei said: "Dad, Mom, this is what I think. I am just a physical education teacher. Even if I quit now, it won't be difficult to get back into the industry if I regret it in the future.
I actually thought about quitting my job and starting a business a long time ago. At that time, I saw that the domestic service industry had great development prospects, and I even made a plan.
But our family’s financial situation is not good. If I want to open a housekeeping service company in the provincial capital or other cities, the whole family will have to sell everything they have to raise enough money.
So, I thought about it again and again, and finally gave up.
But the day before yesterday, I discussed it with Wensheng. There is no need to worry about the funds. His parents can easily come up with hundreds of thousands of dollars. I think we can give it a try. Even if we fail, we can afford the loss.
If it succeeds, your daughter will be a boss in the future!"
The king's father and mother couldn't help but look at each other, and both felt that what their daughter said made sense.
The Queen Mother asked, "Amei, have Wensheng's parents agreed to this?"
Wang Xiumei shook her head and said, "We haven't told his parents yet. We plan to tell them after the wedding. But even if we haven't told them yet, I know his parents will definitely agree.
Even if his parents don't trust him, they will trust me as their daughter-in-law."
The Queen Mother said: "Since those who paid for it have no objection, we have even less objection!"
Wang's father did not object. After all, the money used by his daughter and son-in-law to start the company was provided by her in-laws, and even if his daughter resigned, it would not affect her future career as a teacher. What else was there to say?
After obtaining her parents' consent, Wang Xiumei made a plan in her mind. After she married Chen Wensheng, she would go out for a honeymoon and investigate the market at the same time.
If all goes well, maybe her housekeeping service company can be set up by the end of the year!
