Sheng Yunfang and Sheng Yunfei hurriedly stepped forward, took their two nieces, and carried them into the house.
Zhang Shuzhen reached out to take the things and cheerfully invited her daughter-in-law into the house.
"Huh? Why are you back so early? Doesn't the commuter bus arrive around dark?"
Only Sheng Liancheng sensed something was wrong and asked in surprise.
"Grandpa, my dad drove back in a black sedan, it's so beautiful."
Sheng Xinyu, quick to speak, proudly boasted to his grandfather.
There's no way around it. A kid this young has a car at home. Anyone would be incredibly proud of that. How could they not show it off?
"What the heck? A sedan? Boss, you drove back?" Sheng Liancheng's expression changed immediately upon hearing this.
Sheng Xiping was coaxing the dogs when he heard his father ask, and he quickly smiled and replied.
"Yes, this year the company brought in a few cars from Gangcheng. Me, Yucheng, and my second brother each got one, and the rest are kept for company receptions and such."
"I'm back for the Chinese New Year, right? I figured it would be convenient to drive myself everywhere, so I had one shipped back from Shenzhen."
"Where's the car? Come on, let me see." Sheng Liancheng was also excited when he heard this, and he craned his neck to look outside the door.
"Oh, it's right at the entrance of Dongtou Hutong. The road in front of our house is too narrow to drive in."
Sheng Xiping pointed. The Sheng family's house was at the far east end of this row of houses, and the car was actually parked outside the gate of the Sheng family compound.
Following the direction his son pointed, Sheng Liancheng also saw it, so he quickly went out of the yard and came to the car.
"Oh my god, we have a car now? A sedan? This feels like a dream!"
Sheng Liancheng excitedly circled the car three times. He didn't dare to touch the car with his hands, but just gestured in the air, showing how much he admired it.
Loving cars is probably a man's nature, not to mention Sheng Liancheng, who has spent half his life tinkering with mechanics, has a passion for cars that others can't understand.
In Sheng Liancheng's eyes, the car in front of him was a perfect work of art; it was so beautiful and so desirable.
"This thing must have cost a lot of money, right? How much money have you made out there? You're just squandering it like this? Don't you even know how to be frugal?"
Although Sheng Liancheng said this, his expression and actions clearly showed his love for the car.
"Yes, it's a lot of money. It's needed for business, there's no other way," Sheng Xiping said carefully, afraid of upsetting his father.
Sheng Liancheng nodded, "Yes, that makes sense. If you start a company and don't have a few cars, people won't believe in your capabilities."
At this point, Sheng Liancheng paused, then changed the subject, "However, you went a bit too far by driving back; it attracted too much attention."
Your father-in-law has never ridden in such a nice car, has he? Our village secretary, Zheng, only got a Jeep this year.
"You've managed to bring back such a nice car, buddy. You'd better watch out for what others think."
Sheng Liancheng is so old, what can't he see? Not everyone in the forest farm is a good person; some are just jealous of others' success.
"A couple of days ago, Jianshe and his group came back. They brought a big color TV and a lot of other stuff with them. They were quite impressive."
Many people went to their house to inquire, wanting to know how much money these people earned in a year while they were away.
The Wei people didn't say anything, but then those people came to our house asking questions, and your mother and I just said we didn't know anything."
Chen Weiguo and Wang Jianshe are shrewd, unlike the people at the Dajianchang.
Each of them brought back nearly 100,000 yuan, but no matter who asked, they all gave the same answer: they didn't earn much money outside, just a little better than working a regular job.
Of course, outsiders were unwilling to believe it, but none of these families would reveal anything, so no matter how curious they were, it was useless.
Sheng Xiping nodded; Chen Weiguo and the others were indeed reliable.
Before leaving, Sheng Xiping actually wanted to tell them not to tell anyone when they got home.
The main problem is that they earn a lot of money, and if outsiders find out, it will definitely cause a lot of trouble.
But the words stuck in his throat and he couldn't bring himself to say them.
Sheng Xiping wanted to see how well these brothers handled things.
In the past, when brothers went hunting or released animals into the mountains together, the maximum amount they made was a few thousand yuan, which was small change compared to now, and there was nothing to hide.
The guys have all made a lot of money this year, but if they come back they'll get arrogant and start talking nonsense. People like that are not worth relying on.
Just like those guys over at the alkali field, last year they came back with a TV, and before it even got dark, they were already bragging about how much money they'd made outside.
Although Sheng Xiping didn't say it, he was still quite annoyed. It was just that he was short-handed at the time, so he had no choice but to take them away again in the spring.
However, Sheng Xiping has recruited a lot of people in Shenzhen this year, and the company is currently well-staffed. We'll see how things go after the New Year.
Sheng Liancheng circled the car twice more, then nodded. "Sure, drive it back if you want. Even if you don't, the people at the forest farm know you've made money."
Just you wait, before nightfall, our house will be packed with people again.
Men and women think differently, so Sheng Liancheng didn't react as strongly to his son driving home.
The father and son talked, then took the rest of the things out of the trunk and went home together.
At this time, Zhang Shuzhen also heard about the car. Her reaction was similar to Zhou Qinglan's, but she was more worried.
However, her son was almost thirty and had his own way of doing things, so Zhang Shuzhen didn't say much. She only told Sheng Xiping to drive carefully, and that was it.
With all the children back for the New Year, Sheng Liancheng and his wife were naturally overjoyed, so they quickly started preparing dinner.
