Du Shaojie's courtyard had just been completed, and some furniture and appliances needed to be replaced with new ones. In addition, the smell needed to be removed after the renovation, so he did not live there this time.
He and his mother stayed in a hotel these two days, so he did not take Qi Yan's parents to visit.
Qi Yan did not mention this to them, and the marriage was just settled.
Qi's mother was not a confused person. Although the real estate certificate was written in her daughter's name, how much salary did her daughter get a month?
The house her daughter lived in must have been bought by Du Shaojie, so she subconsciously thought that this was the wedding house.
The old couple did not have high requirements for materials, and they both thought this house was pretty good.
"Dad, Mom, Shaojie didn't plan to use this as a new house. He also has a courtyard house that has just been renovated."
Qi Yan heard it and quickly explained to her parents.
"It just so happens that there is nothing to do at the moment, let's go and have a look together."
Du Shaojie then went downstairs and got into Wang Yongli's car with Wang Yuxiu.
Qi Yan drove her parents by herself, and the two cars went straight to the new house.
When Qi's father and mother walked into the yard, they were stunned. The new house was rebuilt by demolishing two yards. The area was indeed large and comfortable to look at.
The layout was still that of a quadrangle courtyard, but it had complete water supply and heating system. The antique furniture was consistent with the style of the courtyard, and all kinds of home appliances were available.
"I plan to replace some furniture and appliances later, so this yard won't need to be cleaned up anymore."
Du Shaojie led everyone to visit, and then told them about his plan.
Qi Yan's parents came back to their senses from the shock, and Qi's father said seriously: "I see that the furniture and home appliances here are very new, there is no need to replace them, and thrifty living will never be outdated in any era."
Qi's mother also nodded frequently, thinking that the old man was right.
Du Shaojie didn't insist anymore, there was no need to argue with his future father-in-law and mother-in-law about this matter. If he wanted to change, he could just change quietly, and naturally no one would be watching these things.
At night.
The old couple closed the door and muttered in the room:
"I always heard people say that Shaojie's business is very big, and this time I finally saw it. Look, he bought Yanzi a car and a house before they got married, and the new house is so good. Yanzi is enjoying a good life with him."
Qi's mother now looked at Du Shaojie, just as the saying goes, the more the mother-in-law looks at her son-in-law, the happier she is.
Qi's father curled his lips in disapproval and said, "Are rich men necessarily good men? Of course I hope my daughter is happy, but some things have to wait a few more years before we can say anything."
Hotel.
Du Shaojie and Wang Yuxiu were also chatting.
"Xiaojie, you are holding your wedding in Beijing, what about Guangzhou? Your roots are in the south now, and most of your friends are there. Are you too accommodating to Yanzi?"
Wang Yuxiu rarely expressed her opinions before, but now it's just the mother and son, so she can say some things.
It's not that she forced her son to change his mind, but she just wanted to hear what he thought.
"It doesn't matter. At most, we can have another wedding in Yangcheng. Yan Zi left the school because she was forced to do so. Naturally, she wants to have a grand wedding so that people won't look down on her. Of course, I have to support her, right?"
Du Shaojie didn't care much. Anyway, he must have a wedding banquet in Yangcheng for his wedding, otherwise many people would not agree.
After hearing what he said, Wang Yuxiu understood her son's idea and immediately got up and went back to her room to sleep.
The next day.
Qi Yan called Du Shaojie out alone and said,
"Shaojie, I've thought about it. Our wedding should be held in Yangcheng first, and then we can have a wedding banquet in Beijing. Think about it, most of your connections are in the south. If you don't invite people to such a big event as marriage, they will be unhappy."
She didn't sleep well last night. After thinking about it, she suddenly realized that face was not that important.
She had already left the unit, and it would be difficult for her to have any intersection with people in the school in the future. But Du Shaojie was different. He had real connections in Yangcheng, which would be useful in the future.
In the morning, she told her parents about these ideas, and her parents also supported holding the wedding in Yangcheng.
So, after breakfast, she ran to Du Shaojie to talk about this.
"If you have thought it through, then let's hold the wedding in Yangcheng. In fact, even if you send out invitations in Beijing, your former colleagues may not be willing to come."
Du Shaojie knew Qi Yan's temper, and when she was excited, he would go along with her a little, and everything would be easy when she figured it out.
So, the things that were originally discussed were overturned again, and the venue for the wedding was changed to Yangcheng again.
To be honest, it was because Du Shaojie liked to buy real estate. There was such a large courtyard house in Beijing, and there were also large villas in Yangcheng. Otherwise, how could he afford to be so picky.
Since the villa in Yangcheng was still under renovation, the wedding was scheduled for two months later.
Qi Yan's parents played in Beijing for a few days and then returned to Xijiang, waiting to go to Yangcheng before the wedding. As for things like looking at the new house in advance, there was no need at all. In terms of financial resources, they still believed in their future son-in-law.
"Yanzi, how was your inspection in Beijing?"
After Qi's father and mother left, Wang Yuxiu also returned to Guangzhou alone.
Du Shaojie and Qi Yan finally had some peace and quiet. After two days of immersion in their own world, their lives returned to their original track.
"I have chosen a place. Although the location is a little remote, the transportation is very convenient. Shaojie, you go and do your own thing. I will come to you after I finalize this matter."
Qi Yan did not let Du Shaojie interfere in her affairs. She hoped to set up the framework by herself first.
Du Shaojie left her the start-up capital and left the capital.
In the evening.
He called Liang Meiqin and told her his plan.
"Okay, I'll go to your wedding with Yan Zi."
No matter what, Liang Meiqin's heart was bitter because the person wearing the wedding dress was not her.
Fortunately, she and Qi Yan had reached a tacit understanding. One had a status and the other had a fait accompli. This was the product of compromise because neither of them wanted to leave Du Shaojie.
"Meiqin, come over with your uncle and aunt in the next two days. I'll take you to Dinghushan for a few days. You can do their work and retire early. I'll help them get a pass so they can go to Hong Kong at any time."
Du Shaojie didn't know what to say, so he changed the subject.
"I'll take them there the day after tomorrow. Mr. Cai will treat my parents to dinner tomorrow. Okay, I won't say more to you. My mother is calling me."
Liang Meiqin hung up the phone and didn't sleep well all night.
The third day.
Du Shaojie accompanied Liang Meiqin's family of three to Dinghu Mountain, and the old couple fell in love with this place at once. The mountains and rivers here are beautiful and the scenery is pleasant. Going to the mountain for a walk, it seems that the whole person has been cleansed from the inside out.
This is the pleasure that nature brings to people.
The group stayed in Dinghu Villa for a few days. Liang's father and mother's vacation was about to end, so they returned to Guangzhou together.
Before leaving, Du Shaojie invited Liang Meiqin's family of three to have a meal at [Xichuan Restaurant], and gave the old couple a lot of precious tonics.
The next day, he sent them on the plane.
"Shaojie, thank you very much these days. My parents had a lot of fun this time. I have no way to repay you, so I have to hurry back to Hong Kong to work like a cow and a horse, and hurry up to help you earn back the betrothal money."
"You are also learning to be slick now, let's see how I will deal with you later."
"Where are you going to deal with me?"
"Nonsense, of course I'm going to Donghu New Village."
After leaving the airport, the two went to Donghu New Village.
It was not until two days later that Liang Meiqin returned to Hong Kong, and Du Shaojie finally had
some free time. Recently, not only did he cook less, but he also did less simulation training.
After such a long break, he calmed down and honed his cooking skills again. Suddenly, he found that his cooking skills had improved without realizing it.
"Maybe everything is the same. Too much is as bad as too little. Sometimes it's not a bad thing to take a proper break."
Du Shaojie felt something and immediately entered the simulation scene.
After 10 hours of hard work, an innovative version of [Chicken Wrapped in Belly] was completely formed. The taste of this dish is completely different from the original dish, but the taste is unique and very delicious.
That night.
Du Shaojie made an innovative version of [Chicken Wrapped in Belly] at home. Wang Yuxiu and Xiaomei praised it very much. In the end, they even left the soup and ate it clean.
The next day.
Du Shaojie went to the association and invited Luo Sankun and others to have lunch at noon. He made an innovative version of [Chicken Wrapped in Belly] again for these experts to taste.
"Boss Du, the [Chicken Wrapped in Tripe] you made has completely overturned the seasoning of the original dish. The Hakka [Chicken Wrapped in Tripe] has a strong medicinal flavor, but yours has broken away from the inherent pattern and highlighted the characteristics of freshness, fragrance, and smoothness."
"It is very delicious, and the seasoning is simply amazing."
There is no doubt that this innovative dish has been unanimously affirmed by everyone, including Luo Sankun, who was full of admiration.
The appearance of this dish remains unchanged, but the core has undergone earth-shaking changes. It is both innovative and subversive, and it is also a successful exploration of flavor.
This is of great benefit to the comprehensive evaluation and promotion of the dishes in the future.
"Everyone is polite, come on, drink."
Du Shaojie was secretly proud, but he said modestly.
"Mr. Du, here's something. After the cold storage was built, all the members who signed the agreement at the beginning have tasted the sweetness. However, according to our estimation, the cold storage may have to expand in the future.
Someone suggested to me that when the second phase of the cold storage construction starts, can some shares be left for everyone? They all want to participate in the shares, under the euphemism of risk hedging."
After three rounds of drinks, Luo Sankun coughed and made a suggestion to Du Shaojie in front of everyone.
Du Shaojie was a little surprised. He looked up at Luo Sankun, who blinked calmly. He immediately understood that the so-called some people were probably the majority of members.
The cold storage he invested in and built has made a lot of profits since the beginning of operation.
Regardless of whether the price of raw materials in the market rises or not, the catering management company is profitable, and the profit margin is not low.
These members saw the huge economic benefits contained in it, so they wanted to get involved. (End of this chapter)
