Chapter 258 It all depends on your ability

Do you like Changan and his sister and brother?

Jiang Yueying and Jiang Siqi both think that in terms of employees and work ability, they should like them very much, after all, they are good employees.

But emotionally, definitely not.

They don't have much contact with each other, and the number of times they meet in a year can be counted on ten fingers.

"Mom, don't you want me to marry Aunt Su's daughter and my sister to marry Aunt Su's son?" Jiang Siqi did not directly answer her mother's question.

Mother Jiang said, "What's the point of hoping? I definitely hope that one of you two can marry well, but people with a little bit of wealth pay attention to matching up."

To be honest, although Jiang's mother usually brags, she is still self-aware in her heart. Not to mention other people, but her daughter's boss.

Not only does he own several stores, he is also a professor at Peking University and his relatives are also very powerful. To marry into a family like this, you must be a well-matched match.

At least their future son-in-law or daughter-in-law must start as a college student.

Jiang Siqi said, "That's fine. As long as one of my sister and I succeeds, our family will be well off in the future."

It's not that he is greedy for other people's property, but the facts are before him. It doesn't matter whether his sister becomes Aunt Su's daughter-in-law or he becomes Aunt Su's son-in-law.

Their family's life after that couldn't be said to be extremely prosperous, but it was pretty good. At least they had sea cucumbers and abalone to eat every day.

Mother Jiang said, "Okay, okay, whether you can please the siblings depends on your ability."

It’s okay. Who hasn’t fantasized about this when they were young? She used to like the factory director’s son very much, but she ended up marrying his father.

If her daughter can really catch the eyes of them, it will be the ability of the two children.

Jiang's mother didn't know what the boss looked like before, nor what the boss's two children looked like, but she was quite confident about the appearance of her own two children.

At least her daughter is pretty, and of course her son is not bad either.

Later, one Sunday, when I was on vacation, I went to a jewelry store and a clothing store to see my daughter, and then went to a bakery.

It was this summer, in August, that I saw the Aunt Su mentioned by the two children, who was their boss.

She used to be prejudiced against outsiders. She never thought the boss was so handsome, so young and so elegant.

There are also those four children who are all as good-looking as each other.

The eldest and second oldest are both top students.

Jiang Siqi was very confident in himself, "Just wait and see, Mom."

Jiang Yueying said, "Mom, you can't let me find a date anymore, and don't introduce anyone to me."

"Okay, okay, but you two must get married before you turn 25."

She has to set a time limit for the two children. Others ignore them, and they both secretly like others and waste their best years on something that will lead to nothing.

"knew."

Human imagination is limitless. The brother and sister couldn't sleep at night, and their minds were filled with imagination about the future.

Jiang Yueying fantasized about the scene of falling in love with Gu Changan. She also imagined that after they got married, Aunt Su would hand over the store to her and she would become the boss, and she would do the same as Aunt Su did during festivals or when paying wages.

The picture is beautiful. Compared with her relationship with Gu Changan, Jiang Yueying is more looking forward to the days of being a boss after marriage.

She thought that if she became a boss, she would not be able to employ people like Zhu Linlin in the clothing store, and also those people in the billiard hall, who only cared about falling in love and not working properly.

Jiang Siqi's fantasy was similar. Aunt Su had so many stores that she would definitely hand them over to her future son-in-law to manage.

Fantasy is beautiful, but reality is cruel. You still have to work when you wake up the next day.

However, the brother and sister thought that they must work harder and more seriously in the future so that Aunt Su would have a very good impression of them.

The Chinese New Year in 1983 was on February 13th.

So the seafood that Suhe sent to everyone was received before the New Year.

As for the relatives of the Gu family, I have sent Su He's share for eldest sister Gu and Sanjie's share for third sister Gu together. I'd like to ask Sanjie Gu and her family to deliver them when the time comes. Chunqing's share will be sent separately.

Bai Shitou took the package from the post office, returned home and told Chunqing, "It's from my aunt."

There was also a letter sent along with it. Chunqing didn't have a phone, so they could only communicate via letters. Chunqing opened it and took a look.

"My aunt said she bought some seafood from Dalian, and since we like it, she sent some to us to try."

The couple opened the package and found various seafood ingredients.

Bai Shitou had eaten seafood before, but he didn't know how to cook it, especially dried ones. He was a little confused when he picked up a dried sea cucumber.

"Wife, what is this? How do I eat it?"

Since he was a child, the things he ate the most from the water were fish and shrimp. Then this summer he went to Beijing and ate prawns, scallops, clams, and abalone stewed with braised pork.

Chunqing had never seen a sea cucumber, but she read what her aunt wrote in the letter. It was black and about the same length as a finger. She said:

"This thing is called sea cucumber. My aunt said it's a good thing. We have to soak it in water before eating it... and then cook it with green onions..."

Her aunt was thoughtful enough to include a recipe.

Bai Shitou said, "There are so many things, they shouldn't be cheap, what should we give back to my aunt?"

Chunqing thought for a moment and said, "Let's have mutton. Go to our village tomorrow and buy a lamb. Kill it and mail it to my aunt and her family."

White Stone: "Okay."

They don't have anything else except mutton, but Beijing has everything.

Chunqing sorted the seafood and said, "When we went there in the summer, my aunt asked us about it."

"What did you ask?"

"Ask us if we want to develop in Beijing? I said not for the time being."

Bai Shitou had a little yearning in his heart, "It would be good to develop in Beijing, a big city with all kinds of conveniences."

Chunqing, "How can we make a living there? We have two children to support."

It would be fine if it were just the two of them, but the key is that they have two children.

Shiraishitou, "It would be nice to open a supermarket or store like my elder sister and her husband did."

He knew that although the store did not seem to make as much money and profit as selling clothes and shoes, the accumulated profits from various commodities in a month were not small.

It's quite profitable.

Just their small shop has a net income of 700 to 800 yuan a month, especially in the summer.

Chunqing, "We are fine in our hometown." She was unwilling to take risks.

The couple did save some money, but not much, less than ten thousand, and they didn't know what to do for a living when they went to Beijing.

To go to Beijing, they have to transfer their household registration there, and it will cost a lot of money for their family of four.

Bai Shitou said, "But my parents are in Beijing."

Her daughter-in-law's family has all moved to Beijing.

Chunqing, "Mom and Dad helped Xiaomei and Zhang Chen."

Bai Shitou said, "I think my parents won't be back. Xiaomei has to go to work after giving birth, and Zhang Chen is in charge of the bun shop. There's no one to take care of the child, so my parents will definitely stay with me to take care of the child."

"If you don't want to come back, then don't come back. We can just go and take a look when we have time."

Chunqing doesn't care much about this. They are all adults now and don't rely on their parents as much as they did when they were children. Moreover, people tend to be down-to-earth. She can't say that she doesn't miss her parents, but her focus is still on her two children and her family.

Bai Shitou, "I'm worried that you'll miss your family."

"If you hadn't dropped out of school, you would probably have been able to get into college."

Chun Qing, "I can't do that. My grades are really bad. The ones in my family who are ranked in odd numbers have good grades, like my older sister, my younger sister, me and my younger brother. Our grades are really not that good."

"I'm not good at studying either." Bai Shitou sighed.

He was a little worried that since he and his wife didn't have the brains to study, their two children might not be able to go to college.

The girl will be eleven years old after the Chinese New Year. She is in elementary school. Her grades are okay and she is in the top ten, but sometimes she is out of the top ten and hovers around eleventh or twelfth place.

As for my son, he was only in the second grade of elementary school when he turned eight after the Chinese New Year.

Her grades are okay, about the same as her sister's.

But he is not like Changyi and Changan when they were little, who were always ranked first in every semester and were always at the top.

So he was a little worried.

He doesn't have high expectations for his two children. As long as they can get into a university, that's enough. He doesn't require them to get into Peking University, Tsinghua University, or Fudan University. As long as they can get into a university, that's enough.

I hope these two kids can do better.

Third sister Gu received the package in the mail and read the letter. The next day, the family of three went to eldest sister Gu's house to deliver something and took a stroll at the same time.

Because Sister Gu and her husband were afraid of prawns, Su He put less in the dish and more fish fillets.

Chen Juan was always picky. Seeing that the package only contained some sea cucumbers and abalone, she took out two bags of things and said, "What my aunt sent is not enough for one meal."

If you want to give this kind of thing as a gift, you have to give a bag of it, about a dozen or so. My sister-in-law was right. My aunt really picked out the things, and she picked them out to show how generous she was.

Third Sister Gu felt that Qinglin's wife was a little immature. She said, "Juan, do you know how much these two things cost per pound?"

"how much?"

Chen Juan didn't know how much it was, but she knew it was something from the sea.

"Two hundred yuan a pound."

Sister Gu is just talking nonsense, but sea cucumbers and abalone should not be cheap.

Chen Juan was shocked. "So expensive?"

Should she send some to her parents? Her parents have never eaten seafood, especially such expensive ones.
