Chapter 297: Division

Suifeng Hotel.

In a box.

Bu Zhongshi and Liang Yuqing are on a blind date accompanied by their respective families or relatives.

Liang Yuqing was accompanied by her parents to the blind date, and Bu Zhongshi was accompanied by his older brother and sister-in-law, as well as his uncle and cousin.

At this time, the elders were speaking politely, while Bu Zhongshi and Liang Yuqing, the two male and female protagonists of the blind date, were secretly looking at each other.

In Bu Zhongshi's eyes, Liang Yuqing is naturally a beautiful girl.

She had long hair and wore a red hairpin that was popular at that time. She wore a Dacron shirt on her upper body and a red knee-length waisted skirt on her lower body. She tucked the hem of her shirt into her skirt, revealing her slim figure. It was a very fashionable outfit in that era.

As for her appearance, Bu Zhongshi was attracted to her at first sight, and his uncle also asked someone to investigate her character and temper.

Therefore, at this moment, Bu Zhongshi was becoming more and more satisfied as he looked at the other party.

In Liang Yuqing's eyes, Bu Zhongshi looked pretty much the same as she had imagined, because her father had already told her that he looked ordinary and told her not to take it too seriously. After all, good looks cannot make a living, and ability is the most important thing.

So when she saw the ordinary-looking Bu Zhongshi, Liang Yuqing, who was mentally prepared, was not disappointed. Instead, she saw that he had a temperament that other men did not have, that is, self-confidence.

A confident man naturally has his own unique charm.

After both sides exchanged some polite words, Deng Shirong smiled and asked, "Director Liang, I heard from my Yuntai that you have eaten at my restaurant many times. Don't be polite. Tell me what dishes you like to eat. I will ask the chef to make them, and then we will have a few drinks together."

Liang Yunfei said politely: "Boss Deng, the food and drinks in your restaurant are famous for being delicious. Just make the arrangements as you see fit."

Deng Shirong looked at Liang Yuqing and asked, "Teacher Liang, what kind of food do you like?"

Liang Yuqing responded: "I can do anything."

Deng Shirong asked Yuqing's mother again, and she gave the same answer. He then told his eldest nephew, "Dashi, go and make the arrangements."

"OK."

Bu Dashi responded and walked out of the box to arrange the wine and food.

Deng Shirong asked: "Teacher Liang, which grade do you teach?"

Liang Yuqing replied: "I am teaching third grade now."

Deng Shirong said, "It's actually quite good for a girl to be a teacher, but there is a problem that must be faced. I would like to take this opportunity to raise this issue. I hope that Mr. Liang will not be offended, and I also hope that Director Liang and Mrs. Liang will not mind."

Liang Yunfei's heart tightened when he heard this, and he asked, "Boss Deng, what's the problem?"

Deng Shirong said, "It's about the issue of having children. My nephew is from the countryside, and the concepts in the village are different from those in the city. If he gets married, he might have more than one child. You are all aware of the current family planning policy. Then Mr. Liang might have to give up his job as a teacher. I wonder if you can accept that?"

Liang Yunfei had never thought about this issue, but he made the decision immediately and said, "This is understandable. As long as the family has financial support, it doesn't matter how many children my Xiaoqing has. It's no big deal to give up the job of a teacher."

Yuqing's mother also said: "Yes, as long as the man is capable, it's also good for the woman to stay at home to take care of the husband and children."

Liang Yuqing: "..."

Deng Shirong smiled and said: "My nephew's business is developing very smoothly now. Five large trucks are running day and night for transportation. The number of trucks will continue to increase in the future. If Teacher Liang is no longer a teacher, he can also help manage these increasing number of trucks.

The couple worked together to run the business. When the fleet grew to a certain size, they would set up a transportation company to expand and strengthen the business.”

Liang Yunfei and his wife were very excited after hearing this. Although Deng Shirong was just talking big, it was a fact that there were currently five large trucks running day and night for transportation. If the business was managed well in the future, it would be possible for the business to become bigger and stronger. In comparison, the identity of a public school teacher was not that important.

After all, it is already 1984, and this year was the time when the first wave of going into business broke out. Many elites in the system chose to go into business, and everyone's concepts also changed greatly.

Liang Yuqing's eyes also flashed with a glint of light when she heard this. With the filter of "successful career", she looked at the ordinary-looking Bu Zhongshi and found him more and more pleasing to the eye.

Seeing that Director Liang's family had no objection, Deng Shirong felt that the other party was indeed sincere. After all, being a teacher was a very good job. Even if one was asked to give up the identity of a teacher in the future, others would have to think carefully about it.

Not to mention that teachers of this era are definitely more important than teachers of later generations.

In this case, the fact that others were able to give up the job without hesitation proves that the other party really thinks highly of his nephew.

After discussing this issue, the waiter started serving the dishes, and Bu Dashi also brought over two plates of boiled meat.

With such a good start, the atmosphere was very good afterwards.

Bu Zhongshi and Liang Yuqing also slowly started chatting.

We are all of the same age, and as long as we want to talk, we can always find common topics.

The meal lasted from around four o'clock until almost six o'clock.

When the Liang family is ready to go back, the man will naturally give red envelopes and give them five flavors, candies, biscuits, etc. There is a reason why this rule has been passed down to later generations.

Firstly, the chance to get red envelopes can increase women's enthusiasm for participating in blind dates.

Secondly, the red envelope sent by the man can be used to judge his intentions; if the man is satisfied with the woman, the amount of the red envelope will be relatively large, and if the man is not satisfied with the woman, the amount of the red envelope will be very small.

So, after the Liang family's three members left the Sui Feng Hotel and rode their bicycles back to the old man's residence, they couldn't wait to open the red envelope in front of the old man.

As a result, Liang Yunfei and his wife received a red envelope of 10 yuan, while Liang Yuqing received a red envelope of 20 yuan.

Seeing the amount in the red envelope, Yuqing's mother said with a smile: "It seems that Boss Bu fell in love with our Xiaoqing at first sight!"

Liang Yunfei also smiled and nodded, "Yes, the man's attitude is very clear. As long as there is no problem on our side, then this marriage is basically done."

The old man surnamed Liang also saw the amount of the red envelope given by the man. He was also familiar with the rules of blind dates. When getting to know each other, if the man is not satisfied, the red envelope he gives to the woman would be at most one or two dollars, and even stingy men would give dimes.

After all, if you know there is no hope, no matter how big the red envelope is, it will be wasted. Based on the idea of ​​saving as much as possible, you naturally can't give a big red envelope.

And now the man offered 40 yuan, which is higher than Liang Yuqing's monthly salary. His attitude couldn't be clearer.

"Xiao Qing, you've met the person now. Tell grandpa the truth, do you like him?"

There is no doubt that shy people cannot be teachers.

As a teacher, Liang Yuqing was more generous than many other girls, but she still blushed when facing her grandfather's direct question. However, she did not avoid the question, but answered thoughtfully: "From the current point of view, the other party is indeed not bad. Although he has not read as many books as me, he is knowledgeable and has more social experience than I can compare with."

Yuqing's mother said, "I have carefully observed Boss Bu, and he is indeed outstanding among his peers."

Liang Yunfei said: "He dared to buy a truck for transportation two years ago. In two years, he has grown from one large truck to five. He is not only a capable person, but also very courageous."

The old man surnamed Liang said with a smile on his face: "It seems that this young man is really good, so let's arrange the marriage as soon as possible."

Liang Yunfei nodded and said, "I will talk to his uncle about this later."

…

Liang Yunfei's ability to move was still good, and he came to Suifeng Hotel again the next day.

After a few polite words, Liang Yunfei went straight to the point and said, "Boss Deng, your nephew should be satisfied with my daughter, right?" Although the other party's attitude could be seen from the red envelope he received yesterday, such things still had to be confirmed in person to avoid any unexpected embarrassment.

Deng Shirong smiled and said, "Teacher Liang is so outstanding, my nephew is of course satisfied. I wonder what Teacher Liang thinks of my nephew?"

Liang Yunfei also smiled and said, "Your nephew has such good conditions, my Xiaoqing is naturally satisfied."

Deng Shirong said: "Since you are all satisfied, then it will be easy. Let's set a time and arrange for someone to watch the house?"

Liang Yunfei said: "I think so too."

The two of them had the same idea, so they naturally hit it off.

Before visiting a house, the price must be negotiated first.

However, Liang Yunfei didn't care about this. He only had one daughter, and everything would belong to his daughter and son-in-law in the future. There was no need to make any demands on their worth. He could just follow normal standards.

For a marriage that satisfies both parties, the progress will naturally be very fast as long as the woman does not put forward any conditions.

So, after discussion, the two decided to watch the house next Saturday.

…

When Deng Shirong drove his motorcycle back to Naye Village, it undoubtedly caused a huge sensation again.

In big cities, bicycles were already popular in the 1970s, but the conditions in rural areas naturally could not compare with those in big cities. Even in the mid-1980s, it was a very prestigious thing for a rural family to have a bicycle.

If this bicycle is a Phoenix or Forever brand, then you will undoubtedly be the coolest guy in the village.

The degree to which rural people of that era cherished Phoenix or Forever bicycles was definitely beyond the imagination of later generations. Not only did they wrap the bodies of the bicycles beautifully with ribbons, but they also wiped them clean with a rag every time they came back from riding, and then covered the bicycles tightly with mosquito nets.

Of course, Deng Shirong was reborn in this life, and under his influence, many people in Bangjie Village now own Phoenix or Forever bicycles at home. Although they are not as valuable as they were in his previous life, these two famous brand bicycles are still extremely precious items in other villages.

Even bicycles were so valuable, let alone motorcycles. As a result, when people from the surrounding villages heard the news, they came to watch.

This is the first motorcycle in Quan Shuangwang. Many villagers have never even seen it. Only those who have been out of the house know that it is a motorcycle.

Deng Changqi walked around the beautiful motorcycle, reached out and touched the seat, and asked excitedly: "Jiu Gong, how much did you buy this motorcycle?"

Ever since Jiu Gong issued a gambling ban in the entire clan, Deng Changqi, the gambler, has never participated in gambling again. The reason why he was able to quit gambling completely was not because of his strong willpower, but because the gambling ban issued by Jiu Gong was too terrifying. It really was a clan-wide surveillance.

No matter how bad a gambler is, their initial goal is to win money. No one would gamble if they knew they would lose.

As for the gambling ban issued by Jiugong, as long as the news of gambling involvement was spread and confirmed, the shares of the passenger transport company would be lost, which would be more heartbreaking than losing 100,000 yuan.

Therefore, during the period when he was just banned from gambling, Deng Changqi had no idea how many times his gambling addiction had come on, but he finally suppressed it. He really couldn't afford to lose this stake! He stopped gambling, and in June, he had another bumper harvest of watermelons. In addition, he raised pigs, chickens, ducks, and other miscellaneous income at home, making the family, which had nothing, rich again.

Deng Changqi, who was rich, was tempted when he saw the motorcycle Jiugong bought, so he asked about the price.

Other villagers were also curious about how much this beautiful motorcycle would cost. Some villagers who were more financially well-off even thought about buying one if it was not too expensive.

The latest novel is published first on Liu9shuba!

Deng Shirong was smoking a hookah. When asked, he answered casually, "More than 7,000."

"hiss……"

When these words came out, the villagers all gasped.

They all thought that this motorcycle must not be cheap and would be much more expensive than a bicycle, but they didn't expect it to be so expensive.

Those villagers who had originally thought of buying one immediately gave up this unrealistic idea. Not to mention that they couldn't afford so much money, even if they could, they couldn't spend so much money to buy such an "impractical" motorcycle.

After all, more than 7,000 yuan is enough to build several houses.

Deng Yungui, who is firmly in the second place on the Naye Village rich list, said with emotion: "Uncle Jiu, I am really impressed by your generosity. Just to buy this motorcycle, you spent all the annual income of the tile factory!"

Deng Shirong smiled and said, "Yungui, this motorcycle is still very fun to drive. You are not short of money anyway, so while you are still in good health, hurry up and buy one and drive it."

Deng Yungui shook his head and said with a wry smile, "Uncle Jiu, I'd better ride my bicycle. With the money I spent on this motorcycle, I can buy more than 20 Phoenix bicycles!"

Deng Yunqiang also smiled and said, "Yes, this motorcycle is really too expensive. Only you, Jiugong, are willing to buy it. How can we afford to buy this thing?"

Everyone else nodded in agreement. They really couldn't bear to buy such an expensive thing.

Deng Shirong also expressed his understanding of this. In his previous life, it was not until the late 1980s that people in Shuangwang began to buy motorcycles. Throughout the 1980s, there were only two motorcycles in Shuangwang. It was not until the 1990s, especially in the late 1990s, that the number of people buying motorcycles began to grow explosively.

The crowd watched and discussed for a while, then dispersed.

Rural people in this era are not like those in later generations, who are idle and have nothing to do. Now rural people really have endless work to do.

After everyone else had left, Deng Yuncai said, "Uncle Jiu, I'm afraid I have to trouble you with something."

Deng Shirong put the chimney away and asked, "What's the matter?"

Deng Yuncai said somewhat depressedly: "I want to divide the family property between my two sons, and I need you, Uncle Jiu, to be a witness."

Deng Shirong immediately took it seriously. He had helped to arrange the marriage between Deng Yuncai's second son Deng Changyuan and Ou Guohua. Now the family is going to be separated, so of course he wanted to know the reason: "Yuncai, why do you want to separate the family suddenly? You have to tell me the reason."

In front of Uncle Jiu, Deng Yuncai did not hide it. He sighed and said, "There are many reasons for the separation, but the main reason is that my A Yuan plans to quit his job at the tile factory and go to the county town to develop. He can earn more than 200 yuan a month by making large tiles at the tile factory. We don't agree with him quitting his job to go to the county town to develop.

But Yuan is determined to do this, so in the end we can only separate and live our own lives."

Deng Shirong probably knew the reason, and couldn't help but say earnestly: "Yuncai, as the old saying goes, a son is no longer under the control of his mother, especially a son who has already started a family. We as parents cannot control everything in our hands.

Take me for example. The restaurant I opened in the county is managed by my husband and wife Yuntai. I don’t want any of the money we earn and let them keep it for themselves.

You should all be more open-minded and don't think you will be the master of your sons all your life. This will cause problems sooner or later."

Deng Yuncai said in shock, "Uncle Jiu, you actually kept all the money earned from the county restaurant for Yuntai and his wife?"

Deng Shirong nodded and said, "My sons have all started their own families and careers. Asking them to hand over all the money they earn won't be a problem in the short term, but if we do this for a long time, there will definitely be problems, especially when the incomes of the sons are unequal."

Deng Yuncai also understood what Uncle Jiu meant, so he sighed and said, "Uncle Jiu, you are right. Yuan has made great contributions to our family over the past few years. We as parents have a great responsibility for this conflict.

But the incident has already happened, and there is no point in remedying it. I still need you, Uncle Jiu, to be a witness and separate the two brothers so that they can live their own lives!"

Deng Shirong hummed and said, "Okay, now that we have thought it through, let's set a time!"

Deng Yuncai said: "Then let's do it tomorrow!"

"Can!"

After saying this, Deng Yuncai went back.

…

The next day.

After breakfast, Deng Shirong, Deng Yunjun, Deng Yungui and others went to Deng Yuncai's house to witness the division of their family.

Previously, Deng Changxin divided the property between his eldest son Deng Siwen and his second son Deng Siwu. As the father-in-law and mother-in-law, they obviously sided with the eldest son and his wife. The division was not fair at all. Even Deng Shirong and others who were invited to be witnesses could not stand it anymore.

Compared with Deng Changxin's family, Deng Yuncai's family division was more fair. From cash to houses, fields and various belongings, including shares in the passenger transport company, they were basically distributed equally. Everything was clear and no one had any objections.

Both the eldest brother Deng Changxing and his wife expressed satisfaction with this distribution.

After all, if you really count it, the person who made the greatest contribution to this family is Deng Changyuan. Now that everything is distributed equally, Deng Changxing and his wife feel that they have got a good deal and are naturally satisfied.

Deng Changyuan and Ou Guohua were also very satisfied. Their vision was higher than that of their eldest brother and sister-in-law. They didn't care about the current family property at all. Their goal was to look to the future. After the separation, all the money the couple earned would go into their own pockets.

As for whether they could make money after arriving in the county town, Deng Changyuan and Ou Guohua were not worried at all.

One of them is Deng Yuntai's childhood friend, and the other is Zhang Xiuping's little sister. Are they afraid of not finding a job after arriving in the county town?

It can be said that both Deng Changxing and his wife and Deng Changyuan and his wife were happy about the division today.

The only ones who were unhappy were Deng Yuncai and his wife.

In later generations, when the son grows up, there is no talk of dividing the family property. Anyway, from the day the son starts earning money, all the money he earns goes into his own pocket (except for mama's boys). This is true even when he is single, let alone after he gets married.

Now that they are financially independent, those who are capable have bought houses outside or built another house in their hometown, while those who are not capable continue to live with their parents.

No matter which one it is, there is actually not much difference from splitting up and living alone.

The only difference is that people in later generations have never explicitly said they want to divide the family.

But the separation of family in this era is different. Everything is really divided up clearly. From the moment of separation, even if everyone still lives under the same roof, they have to make their own fire and cook, and they will only get together to eat during festivals.

When faced with such a situation, parents naturally feel uncomfortable.

Seeing that Deng Yuncai and his wife were in a low mood, Deng Shirong, who had experienced the separation of the family in his previous life, naturally understood their feelings. However, he did not say anything. After bearing witness, he left with Deng Yunjun and others.

…

noon.

Deng Shirong had finished his lunch and was sitting under the wooden shed burning cigarettes when Deng Changyuan came over.

After saying hello, Deng Changyuan said, "Jiu Gong, tell Uncle Yungui at the jar and tile factory to hire a new jar master. I don't plan to do this job after I finish this year."

Deng Shirong put down the pipe and said, "Okay, I'll tell Yungui later, are you and your wife planning to develop in the county town next year?"

Deng Changyuan nodded and said, "Actually, A-Tai and Aunt A-Tai have told us several times to go to the county town to do some business, but I hadn't divided the family before, so I couldn't make the decision on this matter, so it has been delayed until now."

Deng Shirong hummed and said, "The development of the county town is not comparable to that of the countryside. No matter what business you do, as long as you can gain a foothold in the county town, you will not be far behind in the future."

Deng Changyuan smiled and said, "Jiu Gong, I don't have any suitable ideas for what business to start in the county town. I will need your advice when the time comes."

"You two should think about it carefully first, and I will help you to make a decision later."

"Thank you Jiugong!"
