Chapter 188 Second Uncle's Blind Date
Since the policy was relaxed, many stalls have appeared on the street.
Shen Jiale thought that when Lu Mingfeng bought a car, he would buy a few shops.
In his previous life, he did not get into college and had time to start a business.
Now he has to go to school and has four children. He wants to start a business but does not have the time. If he opens a small shop, takes out the things in the space, hires someone to look after it, and can also generate income for the family.
Shen Jiale told Lu Mingfeng about his idea.
Lu Mingfeng disagreed.
"Even if we hire someone to look after the store, you still have to visit the store frequently. After we buy the car, I will go to the south to buy goods. There are already a lot of things to do at home. You are too tired."
"I just want to earn more for the family."
"You have subsidies now, and you will have a stable job after graduating from college. You really don't need to work so hard."
Shen Jiale agreed, but she had other plans in her mind.
No one would complain about having too much money, and she also wanted to make money to buy a commercial street.
...
A small restaurant opened at the entrance of the university, and Shen Qingyang arranged to have a blind date in the small restaurant.
The woman was a 25-year-old educated youth who returned to the city. She was very dissatisfied with the location and time of the blind date.
Because it was far from her home, she had to walk a long way.
He Guizhen sat with the girl and her sister-in-law at the table in the small restaurant. Shen Qingyang had not come yet.
He went to the school gate to wait for Shen Jiale.
He Guizhen was worried that he might be hungry at this time, so she asked the restaurant's proprietress to order two bowls of dumplings.
"I'm so sorry, my second brother went to pick up my daughter from school."
The girl's sister-in-law said unhappily: "At your age, your daughter should be not young anymore, but you still need someone to pick
her up. Don't you know if you have a blind date today? It's okay that you chose such a far place, but you made us wait until now." He Guizhen hurriedly apologized with a smile: "I'm so sorry, my second brother is shy, it's embarrassing to come alone, and he insisted on bringing my daughter along, my daughter is a college student."
When she heard that Shen Jiale was a college student, the girl looked up at He Guizhen: "In which year did your daughter get into college?"
He Guizhen said proudly: "She got in the first year of the college entrance examination."
The girl smiled: "When your daughter comes, I will ask her a lot of advice."
The girl's sister-in-law hadn't finished eating the dumplings when Shen Jiale and Shen Qingyang arrived.
"I'm so sorry to have kept you waiting for so long." Shen Jiale apologized as soon as he entered the door.
Both parties arrived and introduced themselves as usual.
Shen Qingyang only introduced his name and age.
The girl's sister-in-law finished eating the dumplings and asked, "What do you do now?"
Shen Qingyang replied, "I don't have a job in Beijing."
"Do you have a house?"
"I live in my eldest brother's house."
"How much do you plan to give as a gift for the marriage?"
"I have no money."
He Guizhen pulled Shen Qingyang's clothes when she heard this and said, "Second brother, you bought so many things when you came back, how come you have no money?"
He Guizhen smiled and said to the girl, "Second brother is joking. He has money. If the blind date is successful, he will buy a house."
Shen Qingyang said seriously, "Sister-in-law, I really have no money. I spent all my money on buying gifts for you."
He Guizhen was so angry that she hit Shen Qingyang under the table, then smiled and said to the girl, "Even if second brother has spent all his money, we, as his brother and sister-in-law, will arrange a wedding for him, and he will not lack anything that is necessary for a marriage."
The girl and her sister-in-law looked very unhappy. They wanted to get up and leave, but were pulled by the girl.
The girl asked Shen Jiale: "Did you have a lot of review materials before the college entrance examination?"
"Yes, there are some."
"Now that you have been admitted to the university, can you lend me your review materials?"
Shen Jiale apologized: "I don't need the books and materials, so I left them in my hometown and didn't bring them here."
Hearing Shen Jiale say that his hometown is still so far away in Yaoshui Village, the smile on the girl's face disappeared, and she pulled her sister-in-law downstairs.
Her sister-in-law understood, stood up and said she was leaving.
The two went out, and He Guizhen chased after them and asked the girl what her impression of Shen Qingyang was.
The girl walked away, leaving her sister-in-law and said: "I have a good impression, but we have to go back and think about it."
He Guizhen was very happy: "Take some time to meet more often and get to know each other better."
The girl and her sister-in-law nodded perfunctorily and left.
After entering the small restaurant, He Guizhen said to Shen Qingyang with a cold face: "Second brother, didn't we agree at home that you would have a good blind date today? Jiale even came out specially to accompany you on the blind date.
You are usually very talkative at home, but why do you just answer every question you see the girl?
I have already agreed with her that after seeing her a few more times, you must take the initiative to chat with the girl."
Shen Qingyang was obviously very reluctant: "Sister-in-law, there is a 12-year age difference between her and me. It's not suitable."
"Isn't it bad to be young? People of your age who got married early have grandchildren."
Shen Jiale also advised Shen Qingyang to meet a few times to get to know each other, and not to force it if they really can't get along.
Shen Qingyang said, "She is an educated youth who went to the countryside. At this age, Jiale, do you think she has never been married? What if her husband from the countryside comes to find her with his children?"
He Guizhen said, "I asked and he said she has never been married."
Shen Qingyang was very sure, "She has definitely been married."
He Guizhen said in embarrassment, "Second brother, you want me to introduce you to a 20-year-old girl. You are old enough to be her father, but I can't bring myself to ask for this."
Shen Qingyang said, "Sister-in-law, I have no money or house, and people don't like me. Let's forget it. I am full and the whole family is not hungry."
Shen Jiale expressed doubts about his second uncle's words.
Judging from the aura he usually speaks and acts, he is not an ordinary person.
Seeing his niece staring at him, Shen Qingyang said with a guilty conscience: "Jia Le, if Second Uncle remains single, I will rely on you in the future."
...
After returning home, He Guizhen discussed with Shen Qingshan that they would buy him a house and give him some capital so that he could start a small business. In this way, the employment problem would be solved.
Shen Qingyang said, "Brother, sister-in-law, no need, I have a job in Hong Kong."
He Guizhen said, "Then you said you didn't have a job?"
Shen Qingshan said, "Second brother, you finally came back, wouldn't it be good for you to stay in Beijing? We brothers can also take care of each other."
"I have a small business in Hong Kong, it would be a pity to give it up. Jiale has many children, I will earn more to support Jiale."
He Guizhen said: "You should worry about yourself. You are alone, and there is no one to talk to when you go home. The house is so lonely.
Jiale is not short of money. She and others have opened a biscuit factory and made a lot of money. They just transferred it.
This time, their partners came and planned to reopen a factory in Jingshi."
Hearing that Shen Jiale was so capable, Shen Qingyang said proudly: "Jiale has been smart since she was a child. When she was young, you always said that she was too naive and easy to be deceived."
He Guizhen said distressedly: "Maybe she suffered a lot in the countryside and grew up a lot."
