Gao Haining and the others were not willing to do this.
"Then you just need to put in the effort. Don't worry about the business or how much money you make. As long as we have this job, we can explain it to our families."
Otherwise, it's too upsetting every day. Ever since we came home, we haven't had a moment of peace. If this continues, I'm going to buy a house and move to Songjianghe."
“That’s right! That’s what I’m thinking too. If it really doesn’t work out, I’ll move away. It’s so annoying that I can’t even have a peaceful holiday at home.” Zhang Zhijun and Pan Fusheng nodded in agreement.
After all, not all parents are as reasonable as Sheng Liancheng and his wife.
In the hearts of most elderly people, even if their brothers have started their own families, they are still one family. No matter which one is doing well, they have an obligation to help the rest of the family.
It's not that Zhang Zhijun and his friends become heartless just because they have money, but this money is hard-earned, so why should they willingly give it away?
In the past two years, how many times have they gone home? They're either on business trips or on their way to business trips. Sometimes when they wake up in the morning, they have to wonder where they are.
Everyone sees them making money and living a glamorous life, but do they see the hardships and struggles they endure?
These days are chaotic, and they're traveling all over the place, taking quite a lot of risks.
Every time they go out, they carry a knife in their pocket, ready to risk their lives if anything happens.
Fortunately, the company is doing better and better. Especially this year, Sheng Xiping has recruited a lot of veterans. He feels more at ease taking a few more people with him when he goes out.
"If you should buy a house, then buy it. You won't lose out by buying a house."
"If you can buy a house in Songjianghe, you can transfer all your children to study there. That way, Xinhua and Xinyu will have company. Wouldn't that be great?" Sheng Xiping was delighted to hear this.
Buying a house now is definitely a good deal. Even in Songjianghe, the money that buys a bungalow now might not even buy one square meter in the future.
Of course, money is real now, but money will be worthless thirty years from now.
Most people might have a house to live in, and they don't have the spare money to buy more houses and wait for them to be demolished and appreciated in value. But for people like Chen Weiguo who have spare money, buying a house is a very good investment.
Moreover, once you own a house, you'll have an excuse to refuse requests for loans from others.
Upon hearing this, the group's eyes lit up. "Yes, yes, when we have time, we'll go to Songjiang River and take a stroll around, maybe we can buy a house there."
These people rarely see Sheng Xiping on weekdays, at most they just call each other. Now that they've all come back for the New Year, they're bound to chat non-stop when they meet.
It wasn't until the Sheng family finished making the dumplings and started preparing to cook them that everyone came to their senses and hurriedly got up to say goodbye.
"Uncle, Aunt, you go ahead with your work, we're going home now."
"Oh, why are you leaving? Just stay and eat here. We made a lot of dumplings today, there's enough for everyone," Zhang Shuzhen said with a smile, trying to persuade them to stay.
"No, no, we've made dumplings at home too, we'll eat them when we get back."
It's not right to eat at someone else's house during the Lunar New Year. After everyone was dressed properly, they left the Sheng family together.
After Gao Haining and the others left, the Sheng family started putting dumplings into the pot.
Today I made three kinds of fillings: shepherd's purse and pork, celery and pork, and Acanthopanax senticosus and pork. That's right, it's another wild vegetable special.
Two pots were used to cook dumplings together in the east and west rooms. One after another, the dumplings were cooked and served. For a moment, the aroma of various wild vegetables was very tempting.
Sheng Xinhua and Sheng Xinyu are both grown up now, so Sheng Liancheng didn't have to lift a finger this time. Sheng Xitai led his two little nephews out to set off firecrackers.
The sound of firecrackers startled the two puppies, who let out a howl and disappeared in a flash.
This time, the family members were experienced, and sure enough, they found the puppy in the gap behind the sauerkraut jar.
“This is a good place, isn’t it? The tiger cubs hide inside, and the puppies hide inside too.” Zhang Shuzhen laughed as she watched her two grandsons pull the puppies out.
Just then, the dumplings were all cooked, and Zhang Shuzhen called everyone to eat dumplings, stopping Sheng Xinhua and the others from rubbing the puppies anymore.
Wild vegetable dumplings have a unique aroma and are very seasonal; once the season is over, they are no longer available.
That was the food that every child away from home longed for most. So, Sheng Xiping and the others ate a lot at that meal.
After dinner, we turned on the TV, and the family watched it while drinking tea and chatting. Even the mischievous kids were quiet and focused on the TV.
Before eight o'clock, Zhou Qinglan tidied up the children, washed them up, and sent them back to their rooms to sleep.
The adults watched TV for a while longer, and around nine o'clock, they all went to rest.
I had just lain down for a short while when I heard some noise outside, and the two puppies inside were barking loudly.
Sheng Xiping quickly put on his cotton-padded trousers and cotton-padded coat.
As soon as the door to the west room opened, the two puppies, tails between their legs, darted into the room and cowered in a corner, trembling.
Upon seeing this, Sheng Xiping quickly closed the west room door and then went out to open the outer room door.
As expected, as soon as the door opened, four tigers filed in, led by Hua Hua and her three cubs.
The three tiger cubs are all a year and a half old. They are smaller than Hua Hua, but they already have the aura of the king of the forest.
However, when the three tiger cubs saw Sheng Xiping, they didn't act arrogantly. Instead, they came over one by one and rubbed against Sheng Xiping's legs a few times, showing their goodwill.
As for Hua Hua, she became even more affectionate towards Sheng Xiping. She came to Sheng Xiping's side, rubbing against him and making purring sounds, as docile as a cat.
Sheng Xiping was very happy to see Huahua and hugged her affectionately.
The people in the east room were still asleep when they heard the noise, and Sheng Liancheng and his wife came out.
