Chapter 329
Manager Wu began to elaborate on the information he had gathered over the past two days: "This young man's current occupation is indeed a chef, but he has a very impressive background! It took me a lot of effort to find out the details.
When he was two or three years old, he was abandoned at the entrance of the armed forces department and was picked up by several senior leaders. Although he was taken to a welfare institution for adoption, most of the time those senior leaders took turns taking him home to take care of him.
Just like the half-son of several big leaders, he is very familiar with their sons and daughters. He used to be a soldier and went to the front line. After he was discharged, he went to work at Su Ji.
Even though he's a cook now, he's quite wealthy! I've been to his house, a two-story, self-built house with a color TV, refrigerator, and washing machine! I offered him triple his current salary, but he still won't come. What does this prove?
This proves that he has money! And it must be a lot!
He is only 22 or 23 years old this year, but he already has such assets. He must have received a lot of support from several senior leaders.
He's about the same age as Xiuyu, good-looking, rich, well-connected, and well-spoken. With such good conditions, I naturally want to think of my own girl!"
After hearing what he said, Liang's parents' expressions eased a lot. Liang's mother asked uncertainly, "With such good conditions, you still don't have a partner? Did something go wrong during the war?"
"How is that possible? The boy is very strong! I guess it's because there is no elder in the family to take care of these things for him.
Although those senior leaders are his elders, there is still a gap between them. Maybe they can introduce him to someone, but the young man is not very smart. Anyway, I think he is a very upright person and a good match for Xiuyu. "
Mother Liang looked at her pretty daughter, then thought about her cousin's description. She felt that if the conditions were really like that, they would indeed be much better than those introduced before.
She pondered and said, "You said he's an orphan? Does that mean he has no parents or other relatives? Well, although this means a lot less support, the advantage is that the population is simple and there aren't so many messy things.
Our family conditions don't require any help from the in-laws. We just need to live a good life. With fewer people from the husband's family, my daughter and son-in-law will be closer to her parents' side, which is a good thing."
Manager Wu laughed out loud: "Cousin, your selection criteria is to make your daughter closer to her parents' family. How is that different from recruiting a live-in son-in-law?"
Liang Ma slapped his arm and said, "Hey! Don't talk nonsense. I'm very open-minded. Those things like visiting the home or not are all feudal ideas. Now it's a new era of free marriage.
The young couple has formed a small family. Although both sets of parents should be filial to each other, the small family is also important! You can't put all the burdens of siblings and relatives on the young couple.
Besides, a daughter who is married off now is not spilled water, she is still my daughter."
Still worried, Liang's father said to Manager Wu, "Tell me the young man's information. I'll go ask around. Sometimes just asking one or two people isn't enough to get accurate information. You need to ask more."
The three elders were chatting back and forth, but Liang Xiuyu, the person involved, laughed out loud: "Mom and Dad, why are you taking this so seriously? You're talking as if I'm really dating someone.
According to what my younger cousin said just now, other people didn't want to work for my older cousin at all, and they had already refused very directly. It was my younger cousin who came up with the plan to introduce them to someone.
Not to mention that he doesn't even know how many noses and eyes I have, he doesn't even know that his cousin wants to introduce him to a girl. It's really rude to ask about someone like this for no reason."
Liang Ma's attitude now was completely different from the one she had just put her hands on her hips and scolded. She said to her daughter, "Xiu'er, that's not what I meant. Whether he goes to work for your eldest cousin is another matter. I think this young man has good conditions.
I'm not asking you to date someone right now. Since you have this opportunity, you should first ask around. If there's really such a good person, then you can get in touch with each other."
Liang Xiuyu shrugged nonchalantly and said, "I'm not even 23 yet, and you're in such a hurry to get me married? You just said you were open-minded."
Liang's mother said earnestly, "It's because I'm open-minded that I took the initiative! Look at you, all you do every day is eat and drink with those girls. Apart from the old men in the unit, you don't even recognize another male comrade. How long will it take for you to find one?
If there are any good ones, we'll keep an eye out. In the end, whether it succeeds or not is up to you. Just think of it as making another friend; it's no big deal."
Liang's mother had long been dissatisfied with her daughter's lazy social life, otherwise she wouldn't have to take action in a hurry.
Manager Wu and Father Liang listened to the conversation between the mother and daughter. Father Liang said with a smile: "Xiu'er, you are really inferior to your mother in this respect. Back then, your mother was a big shot in the company.
She can sing, dance, speak well, and has good business skills. She is also good at dressing up. She is the last performer at every gala.
Not only did the young men from our unit come, but even those from other units came. Those who didn't have a seat would lean over the windows to see. At that time, your mother's name was mentioned in several units, and everyone knew her.
Liang Xiuyu had heard all about her mother's glorious youth since she was a child. She teased her father, "Hey, Dad, are you trying to show off how you stood out among all the suitors for Mom?"
Liang's mother brushed her wavy hair and said proudly, "Your father wasn't one of that group. He was the youngest senior engineer in the unit back then, and he looked down on people like me who love to show off.
"I heard from your Aunt Wang that your dad started shaking his head when he heard my name. Hey! This really caught my attention, and I had to go see what a remarkable engineer he was! Look, I finally got him!"
Liang's mother's smug tone made Liang's father shake his head dotingly, and then continued, "What I mean is, your mother has experience and a say in this matter. Don't resist the development of unknown things. What if he really is a suitable young man? Wouldn't you miss it?"
Finally, after repeated persuasion from the elders, Liang Xiuyu agreed to wait for her father to find out clearly. If the information was correct, she would contact Jiang Fengyi.
However, she also made it clear that if the other person didn't want to make friends at all, she would not rush to get along, and even if they ended up dating, she would not require the other person to work in her cousin's store.
Manager Wu agreed readily, thinking to himself, why not give it a try first, it won't be a loss anyway. Even if he doesn't get a chef, it would be good to have a nephew-in-law with connections.
