Chapter 268 I Don’t Want to Do It Anymore
Everyone is happy when receiving money and gifts, including employees’ parents.
When Jiang Siqi and Jiang Yueying, brother and sister, arrived home carrying boxes of things.
Mother Jiang was so happy.
She put away a box of cakes and said, "Send this to your grandmother's house on the second day of the Chinese New Year."
"One box for our family to eat during the New Year."
Not only cakes, she also collected half of the fruits to send to her parents' home.
"I don't want to do this next year." Jiang Siqi suddenly said.
Everyone in the Jiang family was puzzled. Jiang's mother asked, "Why don't you want to do it anymore?"
Jiang Yueying also asked, "Who is it because of you?"
"Who is it?" asked Mother Jiang.
Jiang Yueying told her mother about the boss' daughter bringing back a boyfriend. Jiang's mother was puzzled, "What's the big deal? Just because of such a small matter, you're not going to do it?"
Jiang Siqi, "It's not because of this. I just don't want to work for someone else anymore. I want to be my own boss!"
"What the hell? Be your own boss?"
Jiang Siqi said, "Yes, mom. Previously, several employees of the clothing store had to set up stalls to sell clothes and earn money to buy a shop."
Jiang Yueying said, "They are Aunt Su's relatives, so Aunt Su gave them the position. We are just working for them."
Jiang Siqi said, "I know. I can just find the manufacturer myself and then buy the clothes and sell them. It's so easy!"
He knows all the people from the factory who come to the store to deliver goods.
Jiang Yueying, "Where does your money come from?"
Jiang Siqi looked at Jiang's mother and said, "Mom, I gave you a lot of money this year, and my sister gave me some. The total amount between us is about one thousand, right?"
Then he said to Jiang Yueying, "Sister, why don't you quit your job and let's go sell clothes. You sell women's clothes and I sell men's clothes!"
“We are our own bosses!”
Jiang Yueying immediately shook his head, "No, no, what if we both lose?"
Jiang Siqi was determined, "We won't lose anything. We don't care how much we earn, but we won't lose anything."
Jiang's mother said, "Don't bring up your sister first. If you want to do something, do it yourself."
"You two don't do this anymore. If you make money, it's fine. But if you lose money, you will lose both your wife and your army. You will have nothing."
"Yes, Siqi, you go ahead and do it. If you make money, it won't be too late for me to resign. I can lend you my money, but you can just consider it as a share. When you make money, you have to give me dividends."
After these two years, Jiang Yueying has become smarter.
Her parents just said nice things, saying they were buying her dowry. Since it was her dowry, she had to use it.
Jiang Siqi said, "Okay, you put in 500 and I put in 500, and then we'll split it 40-60, you get 40 and I get 60, and the extra money will be my salary for selling clothes under the scorching sun."
"No problem." Jiang Yueying had no objection.
After being provoked by her brother, she really wanted to quit her job and go out to sell clothes.
It must be nice to be your own boss.
But let's wait until her brother succeeds.
The Jiang siblings were planning for the future, but Jiang's mother felt that she had given away the money before she could even warm it up, even though it wasn't her money.
After Wei Lan, He Chunxu and their family of four arrived home, they took out one-third of the fruits and pastries, packed them in bags, and sent them to the children's grandmother's house tomorrow, New Year's Eve.
After lying on the bed, Wei Lan said mysteriously, "I want to tell you something."
He Chunxu, "What's the matter?"
"That's right, sister...my salary has been raised to eighty."
He Chunxu was happy for his wife, "Sister really thinks highly of you."
Wei Lan, "I'm thinking that next year our combined monthly salary will be 130 yuan. We'll save 100 yuan and use 30 yuan for daily food and drink. Then we'll buy a house the year after next."
This autumn, He Chunxu's household registration was moved to Beijing.
They had almost spent all the money they had saved. Fortunately, the children's household registration was with her, so they could save a lot of money. Otherwise, who knows how much it would cost to transfer the household registration of three people.
"Okay." He Chunxu responded.
With the house, the family has settled down in Beijing.
The next day is New Year’s Eve.
Su He's family of six went to the courtyard to have the New Year's Eve dinner.
At noon, my second sister and brother-in-law came over to chat.
"Xiaomei and Zhang Chen told us not to go back to our hometown, but to retire in Beijing and transfer our household registration here."
After staying in Beijing for half a year, my second sister and her husband felt that living in the city was indeed better than living in the countryside, and it was very convenient to do anything.
They had nothing else to do all day, so they stayed at the bun shop until noon. They didn't have to go out in the afternoon, so they strolled around, visited friends and chatted leisurely. Their days were quite comfortable.
Su He said, "Okay, since Mingyue, Xiaomei, and Hongjun are all here, why don't you two come over too? It's easier when you're young than when your parents are that age, and it won't be convenient for the children to honor you!"
"Your second sister is just afraid of spending money. She heard from Aoki and the others that it cost a lot of money to transfer their household registration, so she didn't want to waste that money. She said that we don't do business in Beijing, so we don't need a household registration." The second brother-in-law spoke.
Su He, "You can't think like that. The household registration is very useful. You don't have to worry about anything now, but you will have to go to the Meng Province to handle it if you have any problems in the future. You two are only fifty now."
"If we live to be eighty, we still have thirty years left. Can we guarantee that nothing will happen in these thirty years?"
"If you two want to stay in Beijing for a long time, you have to transfer your household registration here."
Gu Erjie said, "We moved our household registration here, and we lost our land in the village."
Land is also an issue.
They moved their household registration to the capital, so they became city dwellers, but city dwellers don't have land.
Gu's mother came over and said, "So you two are here to listen to my opinions."
Gu Erjie, "Mom, I am the knot."
Mother Gu said, "I know what you two are thinking. You want to move your household registration to Beijing. Then you will lose your land in Meng Province and have no way out, right? If you don't move, and your children don't care about you in the future, you two can still go back to your hometown to farm, right?"
Gu's second sister and her husband scratched their heads. People at this age do have such thoughts. The couple are in the middle zone, neither young nor old.
If you say they are young, they will be 50 after the Chinese New Year tomorrow. If you say they are old, they are not old either. People of their age need to work whether in the city or in the village.
If their household registration has not been transferred, they can say that they are visiting their daughter's home, helping their daughter take care of her children, etc. But if their household registration has been transferred, they really have nothing left in their hometown.
Su He understood, "What did Zhang Chenxiaomei and the others say?"
Gu Erjie, "They said that we usually help out at the bun shop, and we will help take care of the baby after it is born. Xiaomei has to work, and Zhang Chen has to look after the shop, so there is no one to take care of the baby."
"He said he would give us a hundred every month."
Mother Gu listened and said, "This is good, what are you thinking about?"
My second brother-in-law said, "Mom, we are taking care of our grandchildren. Why would we ask the children for money? That would be useless."
This was not the case. When his mother-in-law helped watch the Red Army, she did not ask them for money!
Mother Gu said, "You two are just being hypocritical. If the child is willing to give it, just take it. Why think so much?"
The second oldest couple was too kind to the children, giving everything to them. They were unwilling to accept the money given by the children. The eldest oldest couple was too shameless. They did nothing but asked for 200 yuan.
