"Okay! I see. No wonder Mom's investment this time wasn't very large, and the percentage wasn't high either."
"That's right, this time, Mom mainly played a leading role."
Many people will follow suit as long as she sets her sights on a project. You know, some people are envious of the money our mother has made in the business world over the years, but their judgment is not very good.
Given such a great opportunity, how could anyone let it slip by?
"See? Even if these people aren't in business, their families must have such talent, even if it's just a collateral branch. They wouldn't let this opportunity slip by, so why not seize it?"
"That's true, otherwise why would they treat our mother with such respect!"
Isn't that respect? It's all about money; nobody hates money.
And with such a great opportunity, why not take advantage of it and make a good profit?
Besides, this is also doing something for the people. Even if the returns are indeed slower, it's still better than some people who have bad judgment and lose money on every investment they make.
It's good to pass the problems on to others; at least you don't have to rack your brains. Although each problem seems simple, it's still very difficult to actually do, and you encounter one related problem after another.
And these problems, if you're in that position, wouldn't they be a big deal? But that's not the case. Even with help from others, they can't be solved overnight.
It's better to give up from the beginning and just let someone else do it. You know, sometimes favors are the hardest to repay, and it doesn't matter if you don't need them one day.
We're not afraid that some people will deny it, since there are more than just one or two people involved.
If that day ever comes and these people deny it, others will probably take action against them, since the pie is only so big.
Fortunately, government departments also got involved and opened a green channel; otherwise, it would have taken one or two years just to approve the materials. By then, it would have been too late to do these projects.
Not only did we have a great time sightseeing, but the discussion also went very well.
This also made those in power realize that everyone was not only making money for themselves, but also working for the development of the people and doing practical things.
With these, whatever we do in the future, the higher-ups will take it very seriously, making other tasks much easier.
As for what problems may arise later, that's a matter for the future. This is all I can do, and I won't get involved in anything else.
"Finally home! This trip has really made me feel like I'm not as good as I used to be!"
"Grandma, back then? Which year? Was it when you were involved in the revolution, or when you were sent to the countryside?"
"No year is as good as the last. When you get old, you have to admit it. From now on, I'm not going out anymore. It's too tiring. It's better to stay at home!"
"Isn't that right? Grandma, you two are lucky to be in good health, otherwise you would have had to use wheelchairs halfway through."
"Get out of here! If you can't speak properly, don't say things that upset me!"
"Milk~Milk"
"Alright, hurry up and sit on the other side. Your bones are already so weak, and if you keep shaking me like this, do you think this old woman won't fall apart?"
"Hehe, Grandma, I won't do it again, okay?"
"That's a good girl. Once I've rested, I'll go play with the little guy. I can't stay with you anymore, or the Yan family boy will get jealous."
"I'm not going to be friends with you anymore, hmph!"
"Why would you joke about a child like that?"
"Why do you think we should do this? She's been with us for so long, doesn't she get tired? We just wanted her to go back to her room and rest."
"Then why didn't you just say so!"
"Even if I tell her the truth, she has to listen, right?"
"Fine! You're right no matter what you say."
"That's exactly right!"
To be honest, it's not just the elderly who feel tired; even I, who did nothing but follow behind and deal with problems, am exhausted.
It's thanks to my good health that I'm back; otherwise, I wouldn't have made it this far. I was away for several months, and I'm finally back.
Fortunately, it had been agreed beforehand that I would go home and rest for three days before going back to work, otherwise I really wouldn't have been able to handle it.
After a few months, there are probably many problems not only at work, but also at home. But no matter what, I'll take a day off to deal with them.
After returning, I ate a little food, then went to my room, washed up, and took a nap. When I woke up the next morning, I realized that it was better to have a nap!
When I woke up the next day, it was already quite late. I had slept really soundly. Well, lately, even if I don't do anything, I'm still tired!
Fortunately, I'm back. Now, no matter what I do, there will be someone specifically in charge.
"Madam, this is an invitation that was delivered to our home while you were away for the past few months!"
"so much?"
"yes!"
"Alright! Let's put it there and see later. By the way, has anything happened at home or in the neighborhood these past few months?"
"There's nothing wrong at home. Some problems were either solved by the husband or he declined to help."
As for what's going on around here, there are indeed some things happening, you know!
"What is it? Just say it. There's no need to hide it from me."
"Yes, it's nothing really, it's just that someone from the Sun family came back this time."
"The Sun family? Who's back?"
"The eldest girl in the Sun family?"
"Oh! Why is she back? Is something wrong?"
"I'm not too sure, I just know that they made a ruckus in the Sun family compound and then left."
"Is anyone still living in the Sun family's house?"
"Yes, but I heard that they can only live in it themselves; they can't rent it out or sell it."
Are there any others?
"There really is one. It's the house at the far east end of the alley behind. Someone died there a while ago!"
"A dead person? What's so strange about that? Is there something suspicious about the dead person?"
"Isn't that suspicious?"
"What happened?"
"I heard it was murder, and the death was gruesome! And it wasn't discovered until several days after the person died!"
"Was there no one else at their house during those days?"
"Isn't that right?"
It was a coincidence that there were usually people at home, but for a few days his children were away, leaving him alone at home.
"That's what happened! Nobody expected him to be murdered in those few days."
"Has the police found out who the killer is?"
"Madam, do you know who the murderer was in the end?"
"Could it be one of his children?"
"Isn't that right? And the main reason was that he asked me for money, and when I refused, he killed the old man out of hatred."
"What about his other children?"
“The other children aren’t much better. They didn’t even cry when the old man died. Instead, they fought each other over the ownership of the courtyard.”
