"It's so cold outside, why don't you wait inside?"
"It's not cold, I just came out not long ago."
Yang Xiaobei looked at Qian Xiaobao, who was carrying a lot of gifts. "What kind of relationship do we have? Do you have to be so polite?"
"I don't need to be polite with you, but I'm going to meet your father-in-law, mother-in-law, wife and children, so I have to be polite. I'm a grown man, and I have to be polite to both superiors and subordinates." The saying "The more courtesy, the less blame" is absolutely true.
"Get in the car and go back to eat."
"Okay." Qian Xiaobao sat down on the back seat of the bicycle.
…
Jiang Shushu was just putting the last dish into the pot when Yang Xiaobei and the others came back.
When Jiang Shushu brought out the vegetables, he saw Qian Xiaobao chatting happily with Jiang He and his wife. They didn't look like people they met for the first time at all.
When Qian Xiaobao saw Jiang Shushu, he immediately stood up and said, "Hello, sister-in-law. Sorry to bother you today."
"Hello, no need to disturb. You are welcome to visit our home. Please treat this place as your own home and don't be shy. I often hear Xiaobei mention you, and I know that you two have a good relationship. If you weren't too far away, I would definitely invite you to our home to spend more time together."
…
After everyone happily finished their dinner, Jiang He and his wife took Huan Huanle out for a walk, leaving the space at home for the three of them.
Qian Xiaobao didn't beat around the bush and said sincerely, "I'd like to thank Xiaobei and sister-in-law for their support. If you have any questions, please feel free to ask."
"Xiaobao, can you tell me about this project first? How did you know the news? Will you definitely be selected if you have 60,000 yuan?" After all, there are many smart people in the world.
"I once helped a man who was sent to a cowshed. After he was rehabilitated and reinstated, the project he took over now is this house-building project. After he knew that I had resigned and started a business, he told me this news to thank me. He said that as long as my assets could reach 60,000 yuan, he could help me get a place. Houses are in short supply now, and as long as the house can be built, it will definitely sell for a good price." It will definitely soar to the sky.
"Are you sure that person is reliable?"
"Absolutely reliable. I've known him for more than ten years. I know him very well. He's absolutely reliable." As long as I really have 60,000 yuan, Uncle Li will definitely reserve a place for me.
"If we use our own money to build a house, we only need to pay 10% to the government. Is there a limit on the number of houses we can build?"
"The minimum is 60,000, and the maximum is 120,000. The plan is to build one building for 60,000. Each building will be five stories high, with five households on each floor. The room formats are one one-bedroom and one living room, three two-bedroom and one living room, and one three-bedroom and one living room."
Jiang Shushu: "State-supported projects are guaranteed to be profitable and will not go wrong. If we're going to do it, we'll do it well. We'll choose the one that costs 120,000 yuan."
When Qian Xiaobao heard 120,000, his mouth dropped open: Wow, is Xiaobei's family that rich? He just opened his mouth and asked for 120,000 without even blinking.
Qian Xiaobao immediately looked at Yang Xiaobei, wanting to confirm whether what Jiang Shushu said was true or just bragging.
Yang Xiaobei nodded.
Qian Xiaobao immediately turned to look at Jiang Shushu in admiration. "Holy crap, what a great guy! He took a few thousand dollars and went out to do business, and in just a few months, he's already earned so much! It's really frustrating to compare yourself to others. I've only made 20,000 yuan in just two months, and 6,000 of that was just luck and utter swagger. How can the gap between people be so huge?"
"If you want to invest 120,000 yuan, I can only come up with 40,000 yuan before March. You have to pay the remaining 80,000 yuan. The capital verification will be in March, and you must hand over the money then."
"Can."
…
Then the three of them started a detailed discussion and wrote the necessary guarantee letter, which was very fair, just, and objective, without any personal feelings. Finally, the three of them signed their names and waited for the finalization in March.
Because the quota went through Qian Xiaobao, Jiang Shushu paid Qian Xiaobao 3,000 yuan.
Qian Xiaobao originally didn't want it at all, because Qian Xiaobao felt that without the financial support of Jiang Shushu and others, the spot would not belong to him in the end.
But Jiang Shushu and his wife felt that this was a favor Qian Xiaobao had earned through great effort, and favors were precious because they were used up every time. Even if they succeeded this time, it would be difficult to succeed again, so they didn't want Qian Xiaobao to suffer any loss.
After some hesitation, Yang Xiaobei finally slammed the table and asked Qian Xiaobao to accept the money. Qian Xiaobei had no choice but to accept it.
Time passed quickly, and on the 28th of the lunar calendar, Yang Xiaobei had a holiday.
When making zongzi this year, Huanle and Huanle were very enthusiastic to help, so the ugliest zongzi this year was made by both of them.
After the rice dumplings were cooked, Huanhuanle and Le enthusiastically gave each person a rice dumpling they had made.
Yang Xiaobei tore open the ugly rice dumpling. It was all white rice with only a few scattered green beans, not even enough to fill the gaps between his teeth.
I can tolerate the ugliness of the zongzi, but why are they so unpalatable? Where are my mung beans and my pork? How can these two little guys, who are so young, have such bad eyesight?
Lele ran to Yang Xiaobei and said, "Dad, I made your rice dumplings. Are they delicious?"
"Delicious." No way, if you weren't my biological son, I would definitely not give you this honor.
"Haha... I know the rice dumplings I make are delicious. Dad, I'll give them to you to eat."
Yang Xiaobei: "..." Can I take back what I just said?
When Lele put the ugly rice dumpling in Yang Xiaobei's palm, Yang Xiaobei knew that he couldn't eat it because it was too late. His good son tore open a beautiful rice dumpling filled with green beans and tender pink pork. Yang Xiaobei was so envious when he saw it.
Yang Xiaobei could only eat another white zongzi under his son's smiling face. The only consolation was that the second zongzi had a few more green beans. If he tasted it carefully, he could still taste a little bit of flavor.
Lele saw that Yang Xiaobei had finished eating, "Dad..."
"Your dad is already full." Yang Xiaobei said and left this son who let his father down.
When Jiang Shushu saw Yang Xiaobei, he asked, "How is it? What filling did you eat in the rice dumplings?" Anyway, I didn't get any white rice dumplings.
"Do you want to hear the truth, or the truth?"
Jiang Shushu laughed when he saw Yang Xiaobei's expression: "Haha... Looks like you got caught. Did you eat the white rice dumplings?"
"I ate it. I ate two more. Lele gave me the one he had. Why didn't they put some green beans and pork in it when they made it? This white rice doesn't taste good at all."
"They each made three zongzi, but the first time they made one, they didn't put anything in it. They were just given some leaves and some rice to play with, but they managed to make it. Who knew you were so lucky? You won the 1/3 chance, haha..."
