At noon, Zhao Guangning invited Sheng Xiping to his home. His wife had cooked a few dishes, and the two chatted and drank as they went. Zhao Guangning then spoke.
“Okay, then next time there’s a deal like this, I’ll just come to you directly, brother.” Sheng Xiping laughed as soon as he heard that.
In his previous life, Sheng Xiping had been in the timber business for a while, but that was back in the 1990s. The forestry bureau's timber production wasn't this high then, and the price difference wasn't this large either. It wasn't as profitable as it is now.
Even so, Sheng Xiping still earned one or two million yuan by collaborating with Zhao Guangning.
Now that things are going well, Sheng Xiping and Zhao Guangning are cooperating well, and with gradual development, things will definitely not be too bad in the future.
The two brothers drank all afternoon, and Sheng Xiping didn't return to the forest farm in the afternoon, but instead went to stay at his father-in-law's house.
Coincidentally, Zhou Qingyue's admission notice arrived, and Zhou Qingyue was admitted to the Mechanical Engineering major at Jilin University of Technology.
"Hey, wouldn't you say Qingyue is following in his father's footsteps? Did Dad study this field back then?"
Sheng Xiping didn't know much about these things, so he asked Zhou Mingyuan.
"Yes, that's what I studied back then. There are three children in my family, and I never expected that my youngest would end up studying the same field as me. Good, that's great."
Zhou Mingyuan was quite satisfied with the result, and his gaze towards his youngest son softened considerably.
In fact, when Zhou Qingyue applied for college, she filled in quite a few mechanical engineering-related majors.
He had watched Zhou Mingyuan tinker with these things since he was a child. Back when Zhou Mingyuan worked at the machine repair shop, Zhou Qingyue would often go there to play. Moreover, Zhou Qingyue was quite willing to browse through the many mechanical books at home.
Zhou Qingyue likes this industry and wants to work in a related field, but it's not because of his father's wish.
"Old Zhou, what do you mean? Are you saying you have a successor, but I have no one to carry on the family line?"
Unexpectedly, Wang Chunxiu was displeased. She glared at Zhou Mingyuan and asked threateningly.
Upon hearing this, Zhou Mingyuan immediately stopped laughing.
There are three children in the family. The eldest went to the army, the second went to a teachers' college, and the youngest studied mechanical engineering. No one in the family studied medicine.
Oh dear, there are too few children. If only we had had a few more, we could have kept one to study medicine.
"Mom, none of the three of them, Qingyue, are studying medicine. Isn't your future sister-in-law studying medicine?"
Are nurses allowed to take the medical licensing exam now? If they are, why don't we let my future sister-in-law take it and give it a try?" Sheng Xiping, who was standing next to him, suddenly remembered this.
Sheng Xiping doesn't know much about these things and doesn't know if nurses can pursue further clinical studies and take the medical licensing exam.
However, after he mentioned it, Wang Chunxiu suddenly remembered and slapped her thigh, "That's right, how could I forget Chen Jie?"
I'll have to talk to her about it later; she should take advantage of her youth and focus on her studies.
Although none of my three children studied medicine, my future daughter-in-law is. Isn't that a kind of inheritance?
Wang Chunxiu immediately became happy and started thinking about how to tell Chen Jie.
When Zhou Mingyuan saw that his wife's face had brightened, he immediately breathed a sigh of relief.
This old married couple wouldn't dare to provoke their daughter-in-law. In the future, when the children move out and live independently, they'll be counting on the two of them to take care of each other.
Now that he's angered his wife, who will keep him company when he gets old? Who will be his walking stick?
"Xiping, thank goodness you're quick-witted, otherwise your mom definitely wouldn't talk to me tonight."
Zhou Mingyuan gave his son-in-law a thumbs-up and whispered.
Looking at his father-in-law and mother-in-law, Sheng Xiping couldn't help but laugh. How amusing! A couple of this age, still so loving, how wonderful.
Sheng Xiping couldn't help but wonder what it would be like when he and Zhou Qinglan grew old. Would they end up like his in-laws?
