307 Bragging without thinking
After finally getting down from the ground, the little guy quickly crawled into his wife's arms.
He complained that his mother had gotten water in his eyes and asked his wife to teach his mother a lesson.
Gao Qinghe came out of the bathroom shaking off the water and heard this outrageous complaint. He pointed his finger and the little girl instantly shrank into Old Lady Tian's arms with a look of grievance and became wilted.
"You, you, I told you many times not to eat watermelon directly with your mouth, but you didn't listen. Now you have offended your mother, and your wife doesn't dare to protect you." Old Mrs. Tian said with a smile.
"Luckily I didn't get my new clothes dirty."
Jiang Qiyue knew he was in the wrong, so he stopped talking. Fearing his mother would really punish him, he quickly grabbed his wife and aunt's hands and said, "Let's go to my uncle's house to eat fish."
Gao Qinghe snorted softly, and the little girl's body shuddered suddenly.
But he was soon attracted by the delicious fish at his great-uncle's house. He ran to his mother in surprise, holding the fish tail given by his aunt-in-law, and said he would take it home and stick it on the head of his bed.
The fish tail was extremely fishy, and Gao Qinghe said disdainfully, "You are not allowed to stick it on."
Seeing his daughter pouting, he softened his heart and said, "Ask your aunt to dry it and make a specimen for you and stick it on your notebook."
Jiang Qiyue was ecstatic and ran to find his aunt.
Before the meal officially started, Gao Chongyi returned from the provincial capital.
He brought back Gao Qingya's admission letter, as well as the doll and candies and biscuits that Huang Ying bought for her granddaughter.
Jiang Qiyue was celebrating the New Year, holding a doll in one hand and hugging his grandfather's neck with the other, wanting to ride a horse.
That smug look made Gao Qinghe want to touch it.
Jiang Qiyue wasn't afraid because her grandpa was around. Her mother always tried to scare people, so she couldn't bear to hit her.
But she also knew that she had to stop while she was ahead. If her mother was really angry, even if her father came, it would be useless.
The family sat together to eat, and the children were not allowed to sit at the table, but Jiang Qiyue was different. He brought a small stool and sat next to his grandfather properly. He stood on tiptoe to pick up the dishes and ate with big mouthfuls.
He ate a few bites himself and didn't forget to pick up some food for his grandfather and wife as well.
He even imitated the adults and said in a condescending manner: "Eat more vegetables, it's good for your health."
How can anyone not love this quirky little thing?
Gao Chongyi asked his granddaughter in a hoarse voice: "Yueyue, can grandpa feed you?"
"I want to eat by myself." Jiang Qiyue shook his head to refuse his grandfather.
Old Mrs. Tian asked kindly, "Then Madam, will you give Yueyue a big tail?"
The little girl thought to herself, "I told you I'd eat it myself, why are you asking?" She got a little annoyed and yelled, "No!"
Gao Qinghe said in a low voice: "Jiang Qiyue, how did your mother teach you to talk to your elders?"
Jiang Qiyue pouted and said to Mrs. Tian, "Madam, I'm sorry."
"It's okay, it's okay. Come on and eat. Eat by yourself."
Afraid that her granddaughter would teach her little darling a lesson, Grandma Tian no longer disturbed the little guy while he was eating.
As the first college student in the family, Gao Qingya was almost overwhelmed by the praise after the meal.
After the meal, he quickly left the party and went out to play with a group of his younger brothers and sisters and his little niece, still acting like the king of children he used to be.
The adults sat in the yard to enjoy the cool air and asked about the situation of Zheng Dong and Huang Ying, brother and sister, in the provincial capital.
Gao Chongyi said everything was fine and the newly contracted shopping mall project had already started construction and the foundation was being dug.
It’s still the old model, Huang Ying is responsible for supervision, and Zheng Dong is responsible for coordination in all aspects.
As for Zheng Bei, when the company had to move to the provincial capital last year due to a project, he withdrew his shares and planned to separate from his older brothers and younger sisters, and continue to work in the county with his small team.
The provincial capital project requires a lot of investment and faces great financial pressure. Zhengbei cannot bear the pressure of loans and wants to withdraw its shares and go it alone.
Because of this, the three siblings had a big fight last year.
Finally, Old Lady Tian stepped forward and strongly demanded that Zheng Bei not withdraw his shares and quit management but take the dry stock dividends. Only then did the three brothers and sisters reconcile.
This was exactly what Zheng Bei meant. He was not an adventurous person and lacked drive, so he was easily content with the status quo.
After returning to the village, he planted crops and raised fish, earning dividends. He also helped Huang Ying replant her abandoned fields, and the relationship between the three brothers and sisters actually became better.
Every time Zheng Dong came back for dinner, he would worry about the future of his nephews and nieces.
The younger ones are easy to deal with, just go to school, study and take the college entrance examination.
The older one has stopped going to school for a long time, so I took him to the provincial capital to let the young man see more of the world. I am determined to make my nephew more successful than his father.
In the past two years, the government policies have been relaxed and the urban construction has been booming. Zheng Dong and Huang Ying's shell company has also changed its name and officially became a registered construction company.
Gao Chongyi and his wife are now living apart. Gao Chongyi has winter and summer vacations, so he accommodates his wife more. When he is free, he goes to the provincial capital to accompany his wife and help her with housework.
By the way, take my wife and brother-in-law to get some connections with the Gao and Huo families.
If you leave resources alone, you'd be a fool.
Besides, if things are mutually beneficial, then they will succeed. If they can’t, then it’s good to make more friends.
Huang Ying felt embarrassed, fearing that her mother-in-law would look down on her behavior.
Gao Chongyi said: "If you are a businessman, you can't do business without being thick-skinned."
After two years of experience, Gao Qinghe feels that her mother has become more and more like a female entrepreneur - she doesn't even need to draft her boasts.
In the evening, the father and daughter walked alone in the back, and Gao Qinghe jokingly asked her father:
"Dad, Mom is alone in the city now, facing so many new temptations every day. Aren't you really worried if you don't come with us?"
"That's nothing." Gao Chongyi said confidently, "I am your mother's spiritual support."
"Really?" Gao Qinghe looked at his father doubtfully.
Gao Chongyi coughed twice, "Ahem, I'm still a little worried."
After all, there are so many young and strong men on the construction site. When they see a woman, their hormones are released crazily and they can't wait to pounce on her.
However, if you have been married for decades and still don't have this little bit of trust, it's better to divorce as soon as possible.
Gao Qinghe saw his father's worried look, patted his father on the back and said comfortingly:
"You curl up too. Let's work on our muscles and take good care of our bodies. I believe that with your face, even if my mom is in her seventies or eighties, she won't be able to escape your control."
After all, there are thousands of old men, but only one in ten thousand is handsome and cultured.
Gao Chongyi glanced at his daughter unhappily and asked her, "When will Xiaohai come to pick you up?"
Time flies so fast. In the blink of an eye, the little one is going to kindergarten.
Gao Qinghe calculated the date and said, "Next Tuesday."
There was nothing much to pack in the Jiang family's old house. The furniture and appliances in the new house were all ready, so all I had to do was bring some clothes, pack them up and send them over in advance, and I could move on easily.
Gao Chongyi nodded and asked, "Did your mother-in-law agree to go with you?"
Gao Qinghe shook her head. She didn't expect that persuading her mother-in-law would become the most difficult thing in the moving process.
Gao Chongyi comforted her: "Just talk to her patiently."
"Let's give it a try." Gao Qinghe didn't hold much hope.
