Qu Jianshe's stubbornness only made him leave a worse impression on his superiors and colleagues.
If it weren't for the fact that he hadn't made any other mistakes, Sun Shengli would have wanted to kick this guy out.
This was just a minor incident for Zhao Qinglan; she didn't care whether the couple next door were doing well or not.
Li Huai's dinner invitation worked. Within a few days, someone came to him to inquire about his sister-in-law Zhao Qingzhu.
Li Huai had anticipated this, and when he got home, he asked his wife for a photo of Zhao Qingzhu and then brought it to his office.
Although Zhao Qingzhu and Zhao Qingju didn't have much formal education, they were still literate and could do basic arithmetic.
Overall, he is good-looking and capable, and his overall conditions are pretty good.
In the past, the store distributed dividends every month, and Zhao Qinglan always thought about buying big items for his home to improve his quality of life, but Zhao Qingzhu and the others hardly spent any money.
It is true that their living standards have improved a lot compared to before. They eat better and occasionally buy new clothes, but they don’t spend much of the dividends.
Zhao Qinglan always felt that it was a waste for her sisters to keep their money sitting there without spending or investing it. With rising prices, the little interest they received couldn't possibly cover the losses.
But Zhao Qingzhu and Zhao Qingju knew nothing about investing, and they didn't dare to spend money recklessly.
It was Zhao Qinglan who suggested they buy a house.
Buying a house is an extremely worthwhile investment for the next few decades.
For Chinese people, buying a house or land is the most reliable investment.
These days, land is still public property and cannot be purchased unless it is allocated to individuals. However, if you want to buy or sell a house, you can still do so.
Previously, Zhao Qinglan hadn't had time to think about this matter because of her pregnancy, childbirth, and the college entrance examination.
But ever since her mother started looking for partners for her younger sisters, she felt that buying a house for her sisters was a good option.
It is not only the best dowry, but also the pre-marital property, and it can also increase one's value.
When Li Huai asked for the photos, she felt that buying a house was urgent.
The Zhao sisters were all quite good-looking, and Li Huai's officer was naturally satisfied after seeing their photos.
Right now, the only thing to do is find an opportunity for the two of them to meet and have their fortunes told.
Since the snack shop didn't have a phone, Zhao Qinglan couldn't immediately notify her mother and sister. She thought that her husband would take the weekend off and come to the city to let her know, and they could also talk about buying a house.
Soon it was the day off, and Li Huai drove his family into the city.
Not long after they came out of the military camp, someone appeared on the side of the road and stood for a long time looking at the back of their car.
In the car, the eldest and second children were teasing their younger brother.
The third child suddenly learned to say "Dad" and "Mom" a few days ago, and the older children were so excited that they wanted to teach the younger brother to say "Brother" and "Sister".
No matter how many times they taught them, the baby could only spit out bubbles and say "Mom".
But Da Wa and the others are really persistent and they teach patiently over and over again.
Zhao Qinglan's heart almost melted when her youngest son called her "Mom".
She couldn't remember anything about her daughter's early childhood in her previous life. In this life, when she was reborn, her daughter was almost five years old.
It was from the time she conceived her youngest son to watching him be born and grow up that she truly understood the challenges of motherhood, while also enjoying the intimacy between mother and child.
The three children and their three grandchildren stayed at the back. Zhao Qinglan and her husband who was driving the car looked back from time to time. Seeing that the children were getting along happily, they smiled at each other.
Having personally cared for her grandson for so long, how could Mrs. Sun not miss him now that she's suddenly moved back to the city?
The arrival of the family delighted Mrs. Sun, who quickly took her little grandson and started playing with him.
"Sanwa, do you still remember your grandma? Do you miss your grandma?"
The little boy can only smile foolishly.
However, any action a baby makes is extremely cute.
Since hiring someone for the shop, Mrs. Sun has been much more relaxed. Even when she comes back, she doesn't have to worry about the shop's affairs all the time.
Seeing that there were still some customers in the shop, Mrs. Sun led them to the resting area upstairs.
"Mom, I've come to tell you something."
"What is it?" she said, while still looking down and interacting with her grandson.
"In Li Huai's group, there is a young man who wants to get to know Qingzhu."
"Really? Which young man?" Madam Sun immediately raised her head.
"That Zhou Jingsheng."
"Oh, I know this young man. He must be a relative of your political commissar." After inquiring around the regiment for so long, Sun had already learned a bit about the eligible young men in the regiment.
"Fortunately, they're distant relatives."
“Distant relatives are still relatives, they’re not helpless.” Nowadays, Mrs. Sun’s knowledge is also growing.
"Then let's find a time for Qingzhu to meet them?" Zhao Qinglan asked.
"Okay, we must meet, otherwise I think Qingzhu only knows about the shop's business all day long."
Zhao Qinglan laughed. Her younger sister's ambition was partly due to her own efforts.
When there were no more customers downstairs, Zhao Qingzhu and his sister Qingju came up.
Upon learning that she was to be put on a blind date, Zhao Qingzhu felt a rare moment of shyness.
"Second sister, let's go buy new clothes. You can wear your new clothes then." Zhao Qingzhu shook her sister's arm.
"Yes, Qingzhu, we should dress her up properly and give the young man a big surprise," Zhao Qinglan joked.
As they were talking about this, Zhao Qingzhu suddenly thought of something and changed the subject.
"Sister, the landlord of our shop is here looking for us."
"What's up, landlord?"
"They want to raise the rent, or they'll make us move out."
