Chapter 45: Feeling Proud



"Zhou Chaofa will have to settle accounts with me then."

Grandma Zhou threw her head back and laughed heartily a few times, "Impossible! He doesn't have the courage to do that."

Around nine o'clock, some women from the village who wanted to help came one after another.

This is the custom here. Whenever there is a wedding or a funeral in a family, someone must come to help. If many people come, it proves that your family is well-liked. If few people come, it means that your family is not well-liked.

As a result, the number of people who came finally filled up the kitchen, so Lin Qiaoxin had to arrange for some more people to go to the yard to kill chickens and fish.

When it was almost noon, the men who were coming to the banquet arrived.

All are at the table ready to drink and eat.

As the hot and fragrant food came up, everyone thought to themselves that this trip was worth it and that the food would be better than those in the county restaurants.

So some people started to make a fuss.

"Uncle Sanzhi, look at how delicious these dishes are. You can open a restaurant in town. Business will definitely be good."

Lin Sanzhi raised his head, took a sip of wine, looked at the people at the table happily and said, "Of course, we will open a restaurant in the county, and even in the city. Everyone, remember to come and support us when the time comes!"

When everyone heard this, they thought it was incredible. Wouldn’t that mean they would make a lot of money?

Afterwards, Lin Sanzhi drank several glasses of wine in succession. Since he finally had the chance to drink openly for once, he naturally wanted to drink more.

He burped, and then started bragging.

"I'm telling you, we'll have to go buy a house in the county when the time comes. I won't be interested in houses in town. Don't worry, I'll come back to see you all in the future!"

Some people who heard this were envious, while others thought he was just bragging.

After all, he is a well-known braggart in the village.

Houses in the county are not cheap and you can’t buy one just by saying so, so I didn’t believe it at all.

Seeing the disbelieving looks of some people, Lin Sanzhi put down his wine glass angrily and pointed at the people around the table.

"I'm telling you, don't you still not believe me? My family will open a factory in the county someday. It will be a piece of cake for you to get a job there. If I tell my daughter about it, will she agree?"

When everyone heard this, they thought that no matter whether it was true or false, the person might need help from others one day, so they must not offend him.

Haven’t you seen that the team leaders of the other brigade are all nice to him now? So it’s definitely right to have a nicer attitude.

Soon the atmosphere at the table became very lively, and everyone was drunk in a short while. In the end, they were all helped back home by their wives.

After knowing the drunken words he said, Lin Qiaoxin was almost furious.

She had expected him to brag, but not to this extent.

Although what he said were things she planned to realize later, it would be embarrassing if she said it now and didn't realize it in the future!

After helping him back to the room and preparing to leave, I heard Lin Sanzhi's faint sigh.

"Qiao Xin, your dad has been a coward all his life, but today I can finally hold my head high and show my worth!"

"And from now on, I'm also a man with a son. Let's see who dares to laugh at me, Lin Sanzhi, for not having an heir!"

"Besides, those people are even more envious of me for having such a wonderful daughter like you. I'm so happy as your dad! It would be even better if you were a little more filial!"

I turned around to look at him, and saw that he was crying, with tears all over his face.

She couldn't help feeling a little sad all of a sudden, and suddenly she didn't know what to say.

He seems to be doing well over the years, but he must be suppressing a lot of pain in his heart.

But this is not the reason for him to mess around!

But I still can't help but feel a little soft-hearted.

"Don't be sad. You've made a name for yourself now, so you must behave yourself from now on. Otherwise, I'll ask Mom to divorce you and find you someone capable. Do you hear me?"

But after I finished speaking, I didn't see any reaction from him, and I didn't know whether he heard it or not.

After returning to the house, she thought about it for a while. In fact, it is not impossible to open a store in the county now, but now a lot of money has been invested in building the factory, so she temporarily gave up the idea of ​​opening a fast food restaurant in the county.

But now that I think about it, there are actually many benefits to opening a business earlier, such as being able to make money earlier.

Moreover, Zhou Chaofa can first find a good store to rent or buy, so as to avoid having a good store in the future.

So I thought about it and went to find Zhou Chaofa.

But seeing that his face was a little red, she frowned, "You haven't been drinking, have you?"

Zhou Chaofa quickly shook his head and explained.

"No, no, I didn't drink. It's just that the room smelled so strong of alcohol that I smelled a little tipsy, that's all. Don't worry."

Hearing him say that, Lin Qiaoxin felt relieved. "Don't drink. You still have to ride your bike to take grandma back later, right?"

Although these were words of concern, I still felt a little disappointed. However, I immediately cheered up again and said, "Um, what's the matter with you calling me?"

"It's important. I want you to help me find a store in the county. I want to open a fast food restaurant."

"The store doesn't need to be too big but not too small either. The location doesn't need to be too good but not too bad either." She thought that the business would definitely be good in the future, so she couldn't buy a store that was too small.

As for the location not having to be too good, it was because she had the confidence that good wine needs no bush, and the price would definitely be cheaper.

After hearing what she said, Zhou Chaofa naturally agreed without saying a word, looking at her confidently, "Don't worry, leave this matter to me, I promise to find a good one for you."

But after saying that, he hesitated and asked, "You are building a factory now, do you have enough money? If not, I can lend you some."
