Chapter 270 It’s never too late to start a new life

Chatting along the way, the two of them were a little excited.

Second Sister Gu said, "You see, from the time we were born, to the time we got married, had children, and raised a family, we just followed the crowd and didn't know anything."

Second brother-in-law, "That's right, it seems like I've never done anything I like."

Gu Erjie, "Xiaohe said that it is never too late to start in life."

"She told me a story about a foreign grandmother who twisted her foot at the age of 73 and could no longer work. Then she picked up a paintbrush."

"When she was eighty years old, she held an art exhibition in a big foreign city, a big city like Beijing..."

Only then did Second Sister Gu understand what Xiao He meant when she told her this matter.

So that’s what it means!

At that time, she thought that the old lady was really idle. She was so old, she should just take a good rest after spraining her ankle, why did she start painting?

Second brother-in-law: "Yes, we are younger than that grandma and have more time."

"But my dear, before you pursue your dreams and hobbies, you have to make a living first. That grandmother's family conditions were not good, so she only started to paint when she was old."

"Luckily, our family conditions are good. Our children have started their own families and our grandchildren are grown up. We don't have to worry about anything."

Sister Gu sighed, "Now I am glad that I listened to Xiaohe and sent my children to school. Studying is really a way out."

Second brother-in-law, "Studying has always been a way out, even in ancient times, but many people can't afford it."

"It's even more so for people in our village."

Gu Erjie, "The head of the family, I don't have any special hobbies. I'm not like painting or singing like that grandmother. I just want to do something of my own after three years, not just take care of the kids."

After spending thirty years around the stove and taking care of children, it's time for her to do something else.

I just suddenly realized it.

In the past, she would have thought that after raising the children and getting them married, they would have to enjoy their retirement and there would be no need to bother with all that.

But now she suddenly feels that her life should not be just about her children. In addition to her children, she should also do something that has nothing to do with her children and belongs to herself.

Second brother-in-law, "Who isn't? I don't have any hobbies either. I just want to get away from the kids and do something else."

"Even if I could just go and set up a street stall and sell fish hooks."

Sister Gu said, "You can't sell fish hooks. You can't sell them."

Second brother-in-law, "I'm just saying."

...........

The two chatted all the way home and called Zhang Chenxiaomei and her husband over.

"What's the matter, Mom and Dad? Why are you so serious?" Xiaomei held her waist and Zhang Chen supported Xiaomei.

Gu's second sister and her second brother-in-law expressed their thoughts.

They both thought that if they didn't agree, they would cry bitterly.

However, Zhang Chen and Xiaomei not only agreed, but also raised their hands and feet to support it.

Zhang Chen, "Mom and Dad, when you start your own business, if you don't have enough funds, I can give you some."

Second Sister Gu waved her hand and said, "We don't need yours. Keep it for yourself in case we lose money."

Xiaomei, "Mom, stop it, it hasn't even started yet and you're already saying sad words, this is not okay!"

"If you ask me, Mom and Dad, you will definitely have a prosperous business and make a lot of money in the future!"

The second brother-in-law smiled happily, "Okay, then we will lend you the good words."

Zhang Chen, "Mom and Dad, I'll buy you a golden toad to bring you wealth and fortune."

At this moment, my second sister and her husband are looking forward to three years later.

I thought the baby could stay in the mother's belly for a few more days, but he broke out in labor on New Year's Eve and was rushed to the hospital overnight.

The next day, which was New Year's Day, I went out at seven o'clock.

son.

My second brother-in-law came over at noon and told Su He and the others about it.

Su He laughed, "This child picked the right time to be born. His birthday is so big, he was born on the first day of the Lunar New Year."

A group of people went to see it.

"Zhang Chen, what's the child's name?" asked Gu's mother.

Zhang Chen, "Chuyi, a person born on the first day of the Lunar New Year, should be called Chuyi."

Su He, "Not bad, not bad, the first day of the new year, the first day, this kid came out on the first day of the new year, and he will get first place in everything he does in the future."

Everyone liked to hear these words, and they thought that Su He was worthy of being a teacher because he was very good at speaking.

...........

The New Year of 1983 passed quickly.

All stores will open on the seventh day of the Lunar New Year.

Jiang Siqi told Su He that she wanted to resign. After all, she was an excellent employee. Su He asked a few more questions. Jiang Siqi shook her head and said, "Aunt Su, I want to start my own business."

"I want to set up a street stall and sell clothes."

How should I put it? Jiang Siqi felt a little embarrassed. He quit the clothing store and went to sell clothes, which made him feel like he was stabbing his boss in the back.

Su He: "Is that so? That's good. Young people should try harder."

Jiang Siqi quit her job to sell clothes, but Su He didn't get angry or upset because it was normal.

Once she becomes a boss, she anticipates that people will not work for you for their entire lives. Unless it is a state-owned enterprise, or an individual business, all businesses are contract-based, and working for you for a year is considered a long time.

It is normal for store clerks to come and go.

"But you can't leave until you find someone."

Jiang Siqi, "I understand Aunt Su."

After telling his boss about this, Jiang Siqi felt relieved.

He was indeed shocked on New Year's Eve, for a moment, but later he went home and slowly figured it out.

His nature is a bit like a daydream.

He said he wanted to quit his job to sell clothes on impulse.

But after thinking about it carefully, he decided to stick to his previous decision. After all, once an idea comes into being, it cannot be changed in a short time, so he has to give it a try.

When Jiang Siqi was talking to Su He about this, Chen Yuan was a little scared. If Jiang Siqi left and a new person came, the position of store manager would not fall on him, right?

He was afraid of taking on too much responsibility, as he was afraid that if something went wrong he would not be able to resolve it.

However, if Aunt Su finds someone else to be the store manager, he would feel a little sad.

Because if that were the case, he would be just an employee at Aunt Su's place who couldn't do anything after working there for a year.

In just a moment, Chen Yuan was extremely confused.

After Su He finished talking to Jiang Siqi, "Chen Yuan, come here."

Chen Yuan's heart skipped a beat, and he came over obediently.

"Remember, you will be the manager of a men's clothing store in the future, so you should learn from Siqi during this time."

Chen Yuan, "...Okay." He was about to say something, wanted to refuse, but he didn't say it out loud.

Su He hummed, "Do it well."

At this moment, Chen Yuan was happy and nervous.

The good thing is that Aunt Su has him in her heart and values ​​him very much.

What made him nervous was that he was afraid that he might not do a good job and disappoint Aunt Su.

However, there seemed to be only one path in front of him, and that was to do it well and not do it badly.

Only success is allowed, failure is not allowed!

Let’s do it!

Chen Yuan thought, is he worse than Jiang Siqi? No matter who he is worse than, he can never be worse than Jiang Siqi!
