Hua Qingyang pouted: "They're not related by blood, are they? They weren't born to the same mother. They're all just as annoying as your mother."
Hua Wanjiang frowned at Hua Qingyang: "Your uncles and the others are not good, but you are the junior, so you can't say that. Remember? We just need to keep our distance from them."
Hua Qingyang nodded: "I understand, Dad."
Hua Kai was overjoyed: "Mom and Dad, I'm not worried about you anymore. You actually know what's going on."
Gu Lanyan sighed and said, "Your father has been suppressed over the years, but he has also become more adept at reading people's hearts. We won't hold you back."
Hua Kai nodded happily and said, "Yes, I'm relieved. We've made so many dishes today, let's have a good meal together."
Hua Wanjiang said to Hua Kai, "You guys go and take some food to your grandparents. A lot of these things were bought by your aunt today, so don't let people say anything bad. We can't neglect our filial duties."
Hua Kai understands that in the countryside of this era, if something happens, the whole village knows about it. You can't let people say anything unpleasant. If you do what you're supposed to do, then others won't have anything to say.
She and Gu Lanyan put several meat dishes into bowls, and then the children went together to deliver the dishes to Hua Zhongzhi.
When they arrived, Zheng Shuzhen's children were all at Hua Wanhai's house, but the atmosphere was strange; they didn't say anything and just sat there.
Hua Kai and the others delivered the vegetables, but didn't say much before returning.
Watching Hua Kai and the others leave, Zheng Shuzhen burst into tears again, saying to Hua Zhongzhi, "I really didn't expect it to turn out like this. I never imagined that the boss would be so hostile towards me. I have been biased, but it's really not as serious as they say."
Hua Zhongzhi sighed: "Don't talk about it anymore, it's no use. They don't need your repentance anymore."
Zheng Shuzhen looked at Hua Zhongzhi: "I was wrong, it's all my fault, but the third and fourth brothers weren't wrong, were they? Fengxiang wasn't wrong, was she? Now that they've made it big, shouldn't they at least take care of their younger siblings?"
Hua Chongzhi was silent for a while: "I'll handle this. I'm the biological father, and I can still manage things. You all shouldn't get involved; it will only make things worse."
Hearing Hua Zhongzhi say this, Zheng Shuzhen felt much more at ease: "As long as the child is not well, I have no complaints. I would even be willing to die."
Hua Wanhai quickly said, "Mother, what are you saying?"
Zheng Shuzhen said to Hua Wanhai, "Fourth brother, you should try to curry favor with your eldest brother more often in the future. He's really made it big."
Hua Wanhai was confused: "Is it really that serious? They're just going to the market, right? They're also partnering with someone in the city to do some small business, but they don't have any capital. How much money would they get from this partnership?"
Zheng Shuzhen sighed and said to Hua Fengxiang, "Tell your fourth brother how big your eldest brother's business is."
Hua Fengxiang looked at Hua Wanhai's ignorant attitude with impatience: "Fourth brother, you really are a frog in a well. Let me put it this way, the business that Hua Kai started with someone else can earn all your family fortune in a month, or even more."
Hua Wanhai still didn't believe it after hearing this: "Don't talk nonsense. I don't have much money, but my house is only a few years old, and I have so much land. Haven't I saved money these past few years? Do you think they can earn tens of thousands a month? I've never heard of a household that earns ten thousand a month."
Hua Fengxiang looked at Hua Wanhai with a cold smile: "He really can earn 10,000 yuan a month, or even more. He's going to open a shop in the provincial capital soon, and he could earn tens of thousands a month. Even if Hua Kai only gets 10%, that's still a thousand yuan in dividends a month. I don't think Hua Kai's expression means he only got 10%. Do the math yourself."
Hua Wanhai was stunned: "Impossible, impossible! How can selling anything for a month make so much money? How is that possible?"
Feng Jianshe said, "Selling sofas, each sofa costs several hundred yuan. You can sell several a day, and that's just in one shop. There are also beds and chest cabinets. Their daily turnover can be several thousand yuan."
Hua Wanhai still didn't believe it: "A carpenter can make that bed for just over ten yuan. Who would pay for it?"
Feng Jianshe sneered: "You really haven't seen the world. You should go to the city and take a look for yourself when you have time."
Zheng Shuzhen sighed repeatedly: "Why is it that none of you are capable? Why are you all being suppressed by others?"
Hua Fengxiang said to Zheng Shuzhen, "Mother, don't say that. They're just lucky. Do you think their achievements are something others can catch up to through hard work? Out of so many people in the village, only their family has become successful?"
Feng Jianshe thought for a moment and said, "Their success is not just a coincidence. Their children are really well-educated and have clear goals and plans. I really didn't expect you to be so smart as to raise your children so well. If the children weren't raised so well, would Hua Kai have been able to get into high school? And Hua Qingyi is going to take the college entrance exam? He didn't even graduate from middle school. Now he's not thinking about taking advantage of Hua Kai's success to make money, but he's working hard on his own. Do you really think they're just joking around? This is all part of a plan."
These words silenced everyone in the room, because it was indeed true; nothing is solely determined by luck, and luck favors the prepared.
Hua Zhongzhi's heart tightened. He had underestimated his eldest son. He was so smart, so what use was anything he said now? He wasn't stupid, so what did he really think of him?
Thinking about all this, Hua Zhongzhi felt a headache coming on.
Hua Wanhai finally lost his composure: "So, that means Big Brother has really made it big, but we can't benefit from it?"
Hua Fengxiang looked at Hua Wanhai: "Don't you know how you treat other people? I haven't offended them, and they don't even look at me, let alone you."
Hua Wanhai squatted down by the edge of the kang (a heated brick bed), thinking that he and Hua Wanjiang were also brothers, so why hadn't he left himself any room for maneuver all these years?
Zheng Shuzhen was really having a headache at this point, and she lay on the kang (a heated brick bed) groaning and moaning.
Hua Fengxiang looked at Feng Jianshe and said, "Let's go back. There's a bus at noon. We've come all this way for nothing."
Feng Jianshe said, "Okay."
The couple didn't have much stuff, and they were about to leave.
Zheng Shuzhen sat up: "Since we're already here, why can't we have a meal? Even if I'm not a good mother, it doesn't have to be this annoying to you, does it?"
Hua Fengxiang showed no mercy to Zheng Shuzhen: "If you can really handle things properly, I won't say anything. What have you been doing all these years?"
After saying that, he pulled Feng Jianshe out.
Zheng Shuzhen was even more upset. She lay on the kang (a heated brick bed) and sobbed, tears streaming down her face.
Hua Wanhai and his wife were also feeling down, so they went back to their own room.
Hua Kai originally wanted to go back to the city earlier, but after the commotion there, plus all the food at home, and remembering what Ye Yifan said, it wouldn't make a difference if she stayed home for two more hours. So she ate her meal peacefully at home, sat for a while, and then went back to the city with her older brother.
After returning, I went straight to the shop. Li Jing was serving customers. There were still quite a few people in the shop. Word of mouth had spread over the past few days, so more people were coming.
Hua Kai saw a customer and went over to them.
