Actually, the idea of giving the Xia family a small company to manage and operate independently came from Huo Beixiao.
At first, she only asked Huo Beixiao to arrange jobs for the Xia family.
Huo Beixiao suggested that instead of arranging jobs for the Xia family, it would be better to establish a branch company and let the Xia family manage and operate it independently.
Of course, there were conditions for giving this branch company to the Xia family: they were required to get the company on track and make a profit within six months.
During these six months, Huo Beixiao continued to pay the Xia family members their salaries according to their positions.
The Xia family's background is undeniable. No matter how incompetent the three Xia brothers may be, compared to ordinary people, they have seen the world and have been carefully cultivated.
The eldest son, Xia Ruisong, was taught and cared for by the old man himself.
When he was abroad, the reason why his company went bankrupt was not only due to his lack of ability, but also because of the environment.
Foreign businessmen also have their own territories. If you, a foreigner, want to take a share of their pie, without the power to suppress the local bullies, you'll be played to death.
But the domestic environment is completely different now.
The country is in dire need of reconstruction, and its economy has only just begun to accelerate.
No matter what business you're in, there are plenty of opportunities.
The Xia family is already quite united, and with Xia Ruisong, Xia Tingyu, and Xia Tingchen leading the way, it's not difficult for them to build a small company in China.
Yang Qiaoqiao had actually been keeping an eye on the branch company run by the Xia family these past few days.
When Xia Yuntao called to tell her they were coming to Sichuan Province for the Spring Festival, Yang Qiaoqiao knew that Grandpa and Grandma Xia were satisfied with their grandchildren's performance.
When Yang Qiaoqiao picked up the Xia family elders and brought them home, An'an Lele, who had been waiting at the door, immediately wiggled her little legs and rushed towards them when she saw them get out of the car.
"Great-Grandpa, Great-Grandma, An'an misses you so much!"
Little An'an, with her sweet, childlike voice, held Xia Yuntao's hand in one hand and Wang Shuyi's hand in the other, her little mouth as sweet as honey, and spoke.
"Great-grandfather, great-grandmother, Lele wants to." Lele also imitated her sister in a serious manner.
Xia Yuntao and Wang Shuyi were overjoyed to see the two little ones.
Knowing that An'an, the little money-lover, loves gold, Xia Yuntao and Wang Shuyi had already prepared a pair of gold bracelets, which they then put on An'an.
Of course, the two elders always treated each other equally; if An'an had something, Lele would naturally have something too.
As soon as Wang Shuyi put the big gold bracelet on An'an, An'an kissed her on the cheek.
"Great-Grandma, you're the best! An'an loves Great-Grandma the most! I want my Great-Grandma to live to be a thousand years old, ten thousand years old..."
The usually aloof Xiao An'an was all smiles, her eyes crinkling, and compliments poured out like they were free.
There was not a trace of her usual aloof demeanor left.
Lele, who is usually very talkative, suffered from not being able to speak clearly, and could only follow behind her sister and pick out each word carefully.
However, Lele has already gained experience in picking up on conversations by following her older sister.
Each time I pick up one or two words, I can grasp the key point.
The two little ones made Wang Shuyi laugh so hard she was practically blooming with joy.
If her physical condition allowed, she would have picked up the two little ones directly.
However, as soon as she put the two little ones in her arms, An'an said very sensibly, "An'an doesn't want Great-Grandma to hold her. An'an is all grown up. Great-Grandma is tired from the plane ride. An'an will lead Great-Grandma into the house."
As An'an spoke, she took Wang Shuyi's hand and led her into the house.
Lele followed suit and held Wang Shuyi's other hand.
Although Xia Yuntao was overlooked, he couldn't stop smiling as he watched his wife being entertained by the two little ones.
Once inside, the house became even more lively. Besides Yang Qiaoqiao and her two children, Lin Xiaohui and Yang Jianguo's family, Su Pan's family was also there.
Yang Qiaoqiao thought that Zhu Dong was also all alone this year, so she invited him to celebrate the New Year with her.
Huo Nanfeng and Huo Nanjing were also called over.
By this time, the bright red couplets and window decorations had already been pasted up, and the young people were helping to prepare the ingredients for the New Year's Eve dinner. Meanwhile, the elders, such as Su Pan, Yue Rongzheng, and Lin Xiaohui, were not allowed to get involved, so they sat aside and watched the young people work while chatting happily.
Upon seeing Grandpa Xia and Grandma Xia arrive, Yang Jianguo quickly came out to greet them.
In Yang Jianguo's heart, Xia Yuntao was his benefactor, second only to Yang Qiaoqiao.
If it weren't for Xia Yuntao's investment, even if Yang Qiaoqiao had the best ideas, without capital, their shop wouldn't have been able to open.
Yang Jianguo quickly stepped forward to help Xia Yuntao up, expressing his sincere gratitude.
Xia Yuntao waved his hand, "Jianguo, if you want to thank someone, you should thank Qiaoqiao. My little bit of money is nothing compared to the life-saving grace Qiaoqiao gave me."
Just as Yang Jianguo and Yang Qiaoqiao helped Xia Yuntao and Wang Shuyi into the house and sat them down, they heard the sound of a car outside again.
Yang Qiaoqiao and Yang Jianguo exchanged a glance; clearly, neither of them knew who else might come to their house at this hour.
For a moment, Yang Qiaoqiao even wondered if Huo Beixiao had returned, and her heart tightened for a second.
In just a moment, she knew it was impossible. Huo Beixiao had probably only just arrived in Hong Kong by now; how could he have returned so quickly?
It's more likely that Qiao Haifan has come.
In the first few days after they returned, Qiao Haifan came to their house almost every day. Even if he missed a day, he would definitely come the next day.
However, because Yang Qiaoqiao has been busy, she has hardly met Qiao Haifan since she came back.
The night Huo Beixiao woke up, she told Lin Xiaohui that if Qiao Haifan came the next day, she would ask him to stay for dinner, and she would come back too.
Strangely, Qiao Haifan never came back after that day.
She had called Qiao Haifan before.
However, communication conditions in China are currently limited, and mobile phones have no signal in many places.
Especially in Sichuan Province, where there are many mountains, the mobile phone signal is even worse.
Qiao Haifan's phone was also unreachable.
Yang Qiaoqiao was actually a little worried.
So when she heard the car, she quickly went out to greet it, but what she saw was someone she had never expected.
