“Okay, Dad, I’ll arrange it later. But that way, it might be difficult to get in touch with their family’s connections.”
"If you're only interested in their family connections, you should abandon that idea as soon as possible."
All of their third-generation children are in the military. Do you think they would hand over their connections to others?
It must be firmly in its own hands; why would it be handed over to someone else?
As for going into business, do you think Li Mianmian should hand it over to her nephew from another family instead of her own child?
Even though her own children don't work in the business world, she doesn't take care of her nephew either.
What does this mean? It means she never intended for her child to take over the business from the beginning!
As for whether her grandchildren will have a passion for business, she probably wouldn't hand over the business to such a child no matter how much she personally guides them.
That's what sets her apart from others, but then again...
They not only have a grandson who is a few years old, but Shen Junde also recently got married, so it's only a matter of time before they want to have a child.
Even though the country is implementing the one-child policy, judging from the Shen family's current approach to educating their children, they do not differentiate between boys and girls.
In other words, in this fourth generation, whether it's a boy or a girl, they will be raised well.
"That's right, it's our son who's thinking too much."
"It's not that you're thinking too much, it's that you simply can't compare to Li Nuannuan."
As for comparing you to the three Shen brothers, you may not be inferior to each other, but in terms of how you see things, I'm afraid few can match her.
This means that whether a family can survive for decades to come depends not only on the men, but sometimes women are just as capable as men.
"But Dad, how many people like Chairman Li can you find in the world?"
"It's not easy to find someone, but you can't hire someone who's incompetent to be the lady of the house!"
Don't forget the old saying: "A virtuous wife is rarer than a good husband." A good woman can influence at least three generations of a family.
"That's true, but who can really say what will happen in matters of the heart?"
"Sigh! These things are really hard to say!"
Isn't it uncertain? Everyone's circumstances are different. Who ends up with whom isn't just about fate; there are many other factors involved.
However, a good head of the family can indeed lead the family to prosperity for generations.
But where can you find such people? They're hard to find, but you can nurture them slowly. Even if the children of this generation really achieve nothing, there's still the next generation, isn't there?
However, you not only need to live a long life, but also ensure that your grandchildren grow up to be upright and capable adults.
More importantly, you need to make all the necessary preparations in advance in case there is no one to take over or no one who is competent enough to fill the position.
At least you shouldn't get into a big fight over something so trivial before you get old or when you suddenly die.
Even if you have no ability, you must ensure that the family property is not destroyed in their generation, after all, it is the material guarantee you left for them.
If you really want to leave them more, you should leave them your wisdom. But that requires teaching them little by little from a young age, raising them step by step so that they can experience both the prosperity of the world and the wickedness of human nature.
It's not easy to raise a successful child, it's even harder to raise a head of the family, and it's even more difficult to raise several children in the family to be successful.
The most important thing is that, regardless of whether they succeed or not, the most important thing is that they don't end up killing each other. That's what parents want to see most.
"Mom, come here, come quickly, I have something important to tell you?"
"What's going on? Wasn't that matter from a couple of days ago already resolved? Are you saying there's something else we don't know about?"
"Mom, no, what I'm about to say isn't entirely unrelated to this matter!"
"What? Why does it sound so awkward when you say that? What exactly happened? Tell me everything from beginning to end."
"Okay, it's going to be a long day anyway, and it's raining outside!"
"Alright, just tell me already! What exactly happened?"
"Mom, it's nothing really. I was just playing with Grandpa and Grandma, weren't I?"
"Yes! I know that. You didn't hear something, did you?"
"I've heard, Mom, and this is more than just hearsay! Let me tell you, this is what happened..."
"Sister-in-law, how are you feeling?"
"Good, good. Thanks to your children, you've always been in good health. And you, Uncle?"
"It's alright. I just saw you were free here, so I came over to catch up. We haven't seen each other for so many years. It's great to see you now, and after spending so much time together, all the little things from the past are coming back to me."
"Isn't that right? We've all grown old in the blink of an eye!"
"She is indeed getting old, but she is more fortunate than us."
Leaving aside their children's current achievements, their grandchildren are all adults, and in recent years they've even had great-grandchildren.
"Hey, it's nothing to mention, but speaking of great-grandchildren, I really miss the little ones at home."
By the way, what you just said means that the grandchildren are not yet adults? Or not married? That shouldn't be the case.
You're not much younger than Old Shen, so even if you get married late, your grandson will be in his mid-twenties by now, right?
“They are indeed in their late twenties or almost thirty, but our grandson is the youngest. He is only twenty-one this year and is still in college.”
"Twenty-one is indeed a bit young to get married now. What about the other children in the family?"
"Apart from my granddaughter who is not yet married, the others are all married."
"That's not bad either. If you don't have a great-grandchild to hold, can't you hold your great-great-grandchild first?"
"It's possible, but isn't it too far away?"
"That's true. Even if you live in the same city, if you don't live nearby, you can't always see your child whenever you want."
"That's right. By the way, sister-in-law, I heard that you have several grandsons who are not yet married. I wonder if they have found partners now?"
"A partner? Just thinking about that makes this old woman furious. Tell me, what are young people thinking these days?"
"You already have a job and a good career, so why aren't you in a hurry to get married?"
"Isn't that right? Our granddaughter, who isn't married yet, is like that. She says she wants to focus on her career and won't consider marriage until she's over thirty!"
"Don't you think they're all old maids now?"
How old is your granddaughter?
"I'm 25 this year, and I graduated from university three years ago. I work near the World Trade Center in Beijing."
