Chapter 686: Parents of Comrades
Xu Zijin's generosity shocked everyone.
Of course, what they didn't know was that Xu Yu gave Xu Zijin ten different sets of stamps.
Some of these sets were later out of print.
Xu Zijin ignored these people at all.
These people were just classmates before, and will remain just classmates in the future. Nothing will change.
"Xu Yu, let me put on makeup for you."
"Hmmmm."
Xu Yu was in such a good mood that she immediately collected the money on the table, stood up and called her mother, and said happily.
"Mom, this is the gift Zijin gave me."
"I'm telling you, these are all new ten-yuan bills with consecutive numbers. Please keep them for me. I want to collect them."
How much is in here?
So thick?
Xu Yu's mother squeezed the big red envelope in her hand, opened her mouth, and nodded: "Okay, Mom will keep it for you."
On this day, Xu Yu's makeup, Xu Yu's wedding dress, and the Xu family's daughter's wedding banquet became a legend in the county many years later.
Naturally, Xu Zijin also became famous.
And many people know that the movie "Running to the Sunshine" was written by her.
After drinking at Xu Yu's wedding banquet, the couple returned home and took Xu Cheng to the village to pack up some things at home.
While her father was cleaning up, Xu Zijin said she was going out for a while.
When they arrived not far from Uncle Xu's house, she grabbed a handful of candy and gave it to the little grandson of her third aunt's family, and asked him to call Xu Zilan's fourth sister-in-law over.
Xu Zilan's fourth sister-in-law is Wu Xiaohe, a very honest woman.
"Jiaojiao, why are you here?"
Yesterday, because Wu Xiaohe was pregnant, Aunt Xu didn't let her go to the Xu family's drinking party, saying that the ground was slippery and there were too many people around and she was afraid she would fall.
However, when Fourth Brother Xu came back, she secretly brought her some braised pork and a chicken leg.
For Wu Xiaohe, who hadn't eaten meat for who knows how long, this was like celebrating the Chinese New Year.
Looking at the skinny Wu Xiaohe, Xu Zijin felt a little sad and took out a letter from his pocket: "Here is fifty yuan. Lan Zi asked me to bring it to you."
"She told you not to let your mother-in-law know and not to take her bad things to heart."
"This twenty dollars is for my child. You keep it."
Seventy bucks?
Wu Xiaohe, who didn't even have seven dollars on him, was completely stunned when he saw the pile of money.
"No, no, that... that... I can't take it. It's too much... Jiaojiao, it's too much."
Seventy yuan might really be a lot for a peasant woman.
But Xu Zijin couldn't take it back.
She stuffed the money into Wu Xiaohe's arms and said, "Don't let anyone see it, or you won't be able to keep it."
"By the way, I brought back a few bottles of milk powder. Come with me to get them."
"I didn't dare to take it. There are so many people around and the whole village will know about it."
Who doesn’t make a big fuss when sending gifts, wanting everyone in the village to know?
This cousin gave a gift but kept it a secret from anyone?
Wu Xiaohe's eyes were red. She followed Xu Zijin silently, picked up a black cloth bag at her second uncle's house, and quietly returned home.
After packing up their things, they returned home, and the next day, the four of them set off.
After arriving in the provincial capital, Lu Hanzhou first took them to the Xu family.
As soon as they arrived at the gate of the provincial party committee’s staff quarters, Xu Wenqiang was already waiting for them there.
As soon as he saw the car stop, he ran over immediately.
"Squad leader, sister-in-law."
Xu Zijin smiled and said, "Hello, Wenqiang, did I delay your work?"
Xu Wenqiang smiled and shook his head: "Impossible, I asked for leave yesterday. Let's go home."
Xu Zijin was really touched by the comradeship between Lu Hanzhou and a few good brothers. They were really closer than real brothers.
When she entered Xu's house, she was even more moved.
In order for them to come here today, Xu Wenqiang's mother and wife both took leave and stayed at home.
Mother Xu is a fair and elegant lady, and one can tell at first glance that she is a well-educated person. She is currently serving as deputy director of the Cultural Bureau of a district under the provincial capital.
Xu Wenqiang's wife is called Ai Li. She is a very beautiful woman, but a little short.
According to Xu Zijin's estimation, he was at most 1.55 meters tall.
Although Xu Wenqiang is not as tall as Lu Hanzhou, he is also 1.8 meters tall.
Suddenly, Xu Zijin thought of a word from later generations: the cutest height difference.
——These two... definitely have the cutest height difference!
When the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law saw them, they immediately greeted them warmly.
Ai Li went to pour tea, while Mother Xu held Xu Zijin's hand with a smile on her face: "No wonder Wen Qiang said every day that his brother's wife is a fairy."
"Before, I really couldn't imagine what you looked like."
"After seeing you today, I think fairies are not as pretty as you."
"Zijin, you sent so many clothes and shoes. I feel ashamed to accept them."
Xu Zijin smiled: "Aunt, don't be so polite. My Hanzhou and Wenqiang are closer than brothers."
"It's just a few sets of clothes, isn't it? I'm in this business, and those things don't count for anything."
"When you open your own store, you can go and get whatever you want to wear."
Chen Weidong had long wanted to open a clothing store in the provincial capital. Now that he had the capital, he took action.
No matter where you do business, you need a background, otherwise there will be too many jealous people and you won’t be able to continue.
It just so happened that Xu Wenqiang’s third sister was unhappy at her job, so she became a partner.
On May 1st, the 'Yunshang' clothing store and electrical appliance store here will open at the same time.
In fact, Xu's mother did not approve of her daughter doing business, but she had no choice but to let her daughter have such a bad temper that she was unhappy no matter what she did.
There was no other choice, so at Xu Wenqiang's suggestion, Xu's third sister formed a partnership with Chen Weidong on his behalf.
"Zi Jin, is this business really that easy to do?"
From now on, this store in the province will specialize in selling "Yunshang" brand clothing and Ruifeng Electric's large and small electrical appliances.
Chen Weidong is in charge of the purchasing channels in Guangdong Province, and with the Xu family taking care of this side, the business will definitely prosper.
Hearing this, Xu Zijin said, "Don't worry, Auntie. It will definitely be much better than going to work for my third sister."
"The great man said two years ago that we must work wholeheartedly and attentively to carry out the Four Modernizations starting from the first year of the 1980s without wasting a single day."
"By the end of this century, the overall goal of my country's economic development is to strive to quadruple the total industrial and agricultural output value of the country while continuously improving economic efficiency."
"So the state absolutely supports self-employed individuals."
"As for business, just rest assured. Our products are first-rate and scarce. You will definitely make money!"
Mother Xu was naturally clear about the policy, otherwise she would not have agreed to let her daughter do business.
After hearing what Xu Zijin said, she felt more at ease: "Thank you and your husband for never forgetting Wen Qiang no matter what you do."
"In the future, whenever you return to your hometown, please come and visit us."
“Maybe there won’t be any good treat, but we will definitely do our best to show our appreciation.”
