Chapter 60
When Mr. Lu opened his first electrical appliance repair shop, he was already 34 years old. In this era when most people enter the workforce in their teens, it was a bit late for him to make his fortune.
However, as the saying goes, "slow and steady wins the race", the cultural knowledge, business experience, etc. that he had accumulated over the years put his career into overdrive after he opened this store.
He turned his electrical appliance repair shop into a chain store, opening one after another. At the same time, he also began to cross over into other industries, including electrical appliance manufacturing, electromechanical machinery manufacturing, tourism, real estate, and so on.
Boss Lu's business sector grew bigger and bigger, and when he was forty years old, he had become a well-known business tycoon in the province.
Although he has become a big boss, Lu Che remains as low-key as ever.
While others doing business are busy attending dinner parties and going to nightclubs, he never goes to these smoky and dirty places.
He is not afraid that others will not do business with him because he has the technology and strength, and others are begging him for cooperation. As long as he is willing, he can just provide technology without money.
Of course, just because he didn't want to go didn't mean that others didn't invite him. Especially when they had reached an agreement on cooperation with a partner, they had to celebrate. Lu Che didn't even give them a meal. He just told them in advance that they could have a good meal and drink some wine if they were happy, but they couldn't arrange for any beautiful women to accompany them.
Someone once thought that he was just talking, thinking that there is no such thing as a bad man, so he arranged a few beauties to accompany him at the dinner. Lu Che was about to leave before he even entered, and the other party was so scared that he quickly stopped him, "Boss Lu, don't be angry. When we men have dinner, we have to arrange a few beauties to appreciate it, don't you think?"
Lu Che snorted coldly, "If you want to appreciate beautiful women, isn't it just right for me to go home and eat in front of my wife?"
After he finished speaking, he took big strides and left without looking back. The cooperation was ruined because it had not been signed yet, and the other party's boss was almost angry to death.
From then on, everyone in the circle knew that Boss Lu was henpecked, and if they wanted to do business with him, they should just talk business honestly and not do anything else.
Because Jiang Yao never interfered with Lu Che's business, not many people in the company had seen her. There was no Internet in those days, so the news spread from one person to another. Eventually, she became known as a tigress with a ferocious face who would punish their boss by making him kneel on the washboard at any time.
It is even more terrifying than Hedong's roar.
Lu Che overheard someone else's description of his wife by chance. He was so angry that he decided to drag his wife out and let these blind people take a good look at her.
In fact, Yaoche holds an annual meeting at the end of every year, but Jiang Yao never attends it because she works in the judicial system and in order to avoid unnecessary trouble, she never talks about her family's background.
However, don't think that she is very low-key. To be exact, she cannot be low-key.
In the 1980s, as the economy improved, various luxury goods appeared in society. Lu Che felt that Jiang Yao and he had endured more than ten years of hard times, and he wanted to bring all the good things to her.
As the saying goes, "If you try hard, a bicycle can be transformed into a motorcycle", but Jiang Yao's means of transportation is a car that was transformed directly from a bicycle, which is even more awesome than the highest leader of the court.
In addition, if a pager comes out today, Lu Che will arrange a pager for her, and if a mobile phone comes out tomorrow, Lu Che will immediately give her a mobile phone, anyway, so that she can keep up with the forefront of the times.
As for clothing and dressing, he pampered her to no end. In the big villa they moved into two years ago, the top floor was their exclusive area. Except for a bedroom, the rest was made into a cloakroom. Jiang Yao liked to buy beautiful clothes, so he let her buy them.
However, he still has requirements for her dressing: to the outside, she must be generous and decent, and to the inside, she can dress however she likes. Especially when it's just the two of them, the sexier the better.
Just last night, he tore her brand new suspender pajamas.
It would be fine if he didn't think about it, but once he thought about it, he felt itchy and wanted to tie his wife to his pants every day. So, the idea of getting Jiang Yao to work in the company came to his mind again.
In the evening, Jiang Yao worked overtime and didn't get home until almost nine o'clock.
When she returned to the room, Lu Che took advantage of the situation and said, "Wife, you always work overtime at this job. It's too hard. You should stop doing it."
"No." Jiang Yao refused without thinking, "I have said many times that no matter how much money you make, I still want to work."
Although she has lost her will due to being spoiled by the boss these years, she still has this bottom line. A woman must be financially independent at all times. Even if her man puts all the money he earns into her pocket and waits for her to pay her living expenses every month, she still has to make money.
"I didn't say I didn't want you to work, I just wanted you to stop working in the court." Lu Che said, "I don't care how much you earn, I only care that you work too hard. Haven't you been nagging recently? You said that you worked too much overtime and stayed up too late, and your skin is bad."
It must be said that the boss's words really hit her heart. She is 36 years old this year. Even if she knows how to take care of herself, her metabolism is starting to slow down, and the challenges of skin care are getting higher and higher.
Although aging is a path that everyone must go through, who doesn’t want to look younger?
"Do you dislike me now?" Jiang Yao glanced over.
"No, don't wrongly accuse me, wife." Lu Che said hurriedly, "I just want you to be happy and not unhappy because of these little things. In my heart, you will always be so beautiful, and every stage has its own beauty."
Jiang Yao snorted, "I see your eloquence is really improving as you get older."
She said with disgust, but the upturned corners of her lips clearly showed that she was coaxed.
Lu Che climbed up the pole and hugged her, saying, "Wife, the company's business volume is growing, and the business scope is getting wider and wider. Simply outsourcing legal affairs can no longer meet the company's development. It's time to set up a legal department. Forget about the other things, legal affairs are your specialty. As the boss's wife, you have an unshirkable responsibility."
Afraid that she would not agree, he immediately added another dose of medicine, "Recently, a colleague of mine had a weak legal awareness and got into a lawsuit. If you don't come to help me, I will be the next one."
"I understand." Jiang Yao said.
"What does it mean to know?" Lu Che was complacent but not quite sure.
"What do you think?" Jiang Yao raised her eyebrows.
"Of course I mean you agreed." Lu Che excitedly held her face and kissed her, "Mua, wife, you are so great, mua, wife, I love you more and more, mua, wife, let's celebrate..."
"No, I haven't showered yet."
"It doesn't matter. I still have to wash it later."
"I'm sweating, I better take a shower."
"No need, my wife, you still smell delicious."
“Boom boom boom…”
Lu Che had just kissed his wife's mouth when there was a knock on the door. Jiang Yao pushed him and said, "Go open the door quickly."
“Who is so tactless as to come up here at this time?” Lu Che stood up angrily, then opened the door of the bedroom and walked through a long corridor before reaching the door to the top floor.
That’s right, Boss Lu set up a big door at the top floor’s staircase.
Although they lived in the same house, he had carved out a private space for himself and Jiang Yao. Normally, no one was allowed to come in and disturb them, not even Lu Zhaoyang and Lu Zhaoyue.
Standing outside the door was Lu Zhaoyue. She glanced at Lu Che and said unhappily, "Dad, Auntie has prepared the midnight snack. Please let Mom come down to eat."
"Xiaolu, what's your attitude? It looks like Dad hasn't offended you." Lu Che asked in confusion.
Lu Zhaoyue pouted and said, "No, I didn't offend you. It's just that there are so many traps here that I can't hear you even if I shout downstairs. I have to climb up every time. It's so tiring."
“…Dad has a lot of important company documents here, so I have to…” Lu Che tried to explain.
"Dad, come on." Lu Zhaoyue ruthlessly interrupted, "You are just afraid that we will disturb you and my mom... To be honest, you should just lock the door when you kiss my mom. You are really trying to cover up the truth with these layers of doors."
"..." Boss Lu was unable to refute.
After the company established the legal department, its development became more healthy and reasonable. With the great wave of reform and opening up, Yaoche's business flourished, and at the turn of the millennium, it had become a well-known listed company in China.
This year, Lu Che was fifty-one years old and Jiang Yao was forty-seven years old.
The two children are almost thirty years old, and they have both started their own families and have given birth to a pair of twins, a boy and a girl.
The old lady is very happy that she has twins from generation to generation. She is now over 90 years old, but she is very energetic because life is good.
Lu Che and Jiang Yao have already retreated to the second line, and the company's affairs are basically handed over to Lu Zhaoyang and Lu Zhaoyue. They began to enjoy their old age with their grandchildren.
I get up early every day to do morning exercises, then go to the teahouse for morning tea, come back at noon to have lunch with the old lady, take a nap, and then go to the kindergarten to pick up my grandchildren after school.
The old couple went out together every day, and they were even more affectionate than young people in love. Moreover, with the openness of the times, Old Lu was no longer as conservative as before, and now he would hold Jiang Yao's hand when walking.
At 3:30 in the afternoon, they went out to kindergarten on time.
Lao Lu felt that he was still young and strong, so he liked to drive himself when he went out. Of course, he didn't like to use a driver, because he felt that the driver would disturb their world of two, and Jiang Yao once said that his profile was very handsome when he was driving. Since his wife liked to watch so much, of course he had to take the opportunity to let her watch enough.
After arriving at the kindergarten and parking the car, Lu Che took Jiang Yao to the door and waited for the four beloved grandchildren to come out.
"Grandpa, grandma..."
"Grandpa, grandma..."
Four little cuties, two boys and two girls, were running towards the door with their legs wide open. They were all fair, pretty and cute, and anyone who saw them would like them.
"Grandpa, I want to eat ice cream later."
"Grandma, I want to eat cake later."
"Grandma, I want to eat McDonald's."
"Grandpa, I think KFC tastes better."
The four little ones are all foodies. As soon as they get home from school every day, the first thing they start clamoring for food.
"Grandma made snow meringue today, let's eat it today." Lu Che said.
"Eating snow meringue again. I don't want to eat it. I want to eat French fries."
"Yeah, I don't want to eat either. I want to eat a hamburger."
“Fried chicken wings.”
“…”
The four little guys were making so much noise that it was a headache. Jiang Yao softened her heart and said, "It's okay not to eat Snow Melon. How about McDonald's?"
"No." Lu Che objected immediately and lectured the four little guys, "My wife worked so hard to be your Snow Queen. If you don't show your appreciation, isn't that just a waste of her kindness?"
"But we just want to eat McDonald's today." The third brother muttered softly.
The eldest child quickly pulled the third child's hand and whispered, "Forget it, let's eat it another day. Grandpa will get angry again later. My mother said that he can't stand grandma being wronged."
What the third brother said was the truth. The little guys exchanged glances and decided to swallow their pride and submit.
Seeing this, Jiang Yao hurriedly coaxed them, "Fried chicken wings can cause sore throats, so grandpa doesn't let you eat them. How about this, I'll make cola chicken wings for everyone tonight, okay?"
“Okay, okay…”
Finally, Jiang Yao made the little ancestors happy. She breathed a sigh of relief and said, "Let's go to the car hand in hand now."
"Okay, I want grandma to hold my hand."
"I also want grandma to hold my hand."
Everyone gathered around Jiang Yao. Lu Che gave an order, saying, "The second oldest holds my hand, the eldest holds the second oldest, the fourth oldest holds grandma's hand, and the third oldest holds the fourth oldest."
As they spoke, everyone stood in unison. Lu Che held two people with his right hand, and Jiang Yao held two people with his left hand. They held their hands together in the air, and finally walked forward in a mighty manner.
"Grandpa, why don't you go over to your brother? I want to hold grandma's hand." The second child looked up and said to Lu Che.
"Why are you holding grandma's hand? How old are you?" Lu Che blurted out a lecture, "You are already six years old."
When the four little ones heard this, they retorted in unison: "You are fifty-one years old, why do you still want to hold grandma's hand?"
“…”
