The second son coughed and said, "How can you be compared to us? If you're going to school, then study hard. If you're not going to school, then we'll talk about not going to school. Listen to your mother. After you graduate, get a stable job before you start looking for a partner. If you start looking for a partner too early, who are you expecting to support you?"
Sanbao stared at the sky speechlessly. He didn't even deserve love, let alone go to school.
"Dad, will we live at home after we get married?" Erbao asked.
“Didn’t we buy you all houses? They’re so close to your workplaces. Just renovate them when you get married. Why come back? It’s so far. You’ll just waste time traveling back and forth.” The second son refused outright.
Erbao and Sanbao exchanged a glance. They were separated from their family before they were even married. It's easy to leave but hard to go back.
“Your great-grandparents and grandparents are all here. You can’t help with anything. Why do you live together? I have to take care of you,” Chunni said irritably.
"Mom, we don't need to wait on you, we can even help out," Sanbao said with a grin.
"You're just making things worse, what help are you? There are too many elderly people in the family. Now that you've found partners, don't make the women overthink things. Just move out and live your own lives. Whether you live well or poorly, we won't interfere." Chunni and the second son were overthinking things. Although they didn't need to take care of the elderly, the women were bound to overthink things, and their lifestyles were different. Living together would inevitably lead to conflicts. They would pay for a nanny when they had children.
After the National Day holiday, the market index reached 6,000 points.
On October 16th, the market reached a high of 6124 points.
Many retail investors are still entering the market one after another. Entering the stock market this year is like picking up money. All stock investors believe that the market will reach 10,000 points in no time.
Li Xingguo was reluctant to sell. Seeing the enthusiasm of the entire market, he felt that reaching 10,000 points was not impossible. He had already sold half of his previous investments to buy a car and pay for his child's tuition. As long as he could earn back all of that, he would sell immediately.
Just as investors were getting excited, on October 17th, the market fell by five points for the first time, dropping below 6,000 points.
Li Xingguo held the mouse, feeling conflicted. He and his colleagues discussed it and felt that it was just a minor adjustment, and that the market would rebound after a few days. The rebound might break through 8,000 points and even reach 10,000 points.
The following month, the market fell to 4,500 points. Although Li Xingguo was a little panicked, he felt that this was a good time to buy at the bottom. Many of his colleagues followed the market from more than 5,000 points to more than 4,000 points, and they all believed that a rebound was certain.
Li Xingguo mortgaged his car again and took out a loan to buy stocks at rock-bottom prices.
Dong Yun had also heard that the market had been falling recently. That night, before going to bed, he asked Li Xingguo, "I heard it's been falling a lot lately. Should we sell everything we have?"
Li Xingguo closed his eyes, turned around, and said to Dong Yun with his back to her, "If you don't understand, don't get involved."
He firmly believed that the market would rebound, and he didn't sell when it was over 6,000 points. Now it has shrunk by a third, and he keeps buying more. If he sells now, the loss will be too great.
"Why don't we pay off the mortgage on the house first?" Dong Yun was still worried, since their start-up capital was secured by mortgaging the house.
Li Xingguo pulled the blanket over his head and refused to communicate with Dong Yun.
At this moment, Li Mancang and Wu Zhiqi were also talking about Li Xingguo.
"I wonder if the boss sold those stocks yet; I heard they've dropped quite a bit recently."
Wu Zhiqi: "He's not stupid. Even if the price drops, he can still hold on. He bought early and made a lot of money. He's already recouped his investment in the car and his kids' schooling. The rest is all profit."
“That’s true, it’s all profit, let him decide whether to sell or not.” Li Mancang thought Wu Zhiqi made sense. Li Xingguo’s expenses had already covered the costs, so whatever was left was profit.
