Chapter 1914

The author went to the kitchen at about 2 o'clock in the afternoon. He took out the small cucumbers from the refrigerator and put them on the kitchen countertop to process and cook them. There were one or two kilograms of cucumbers in a bag. He peeled them with a ceramic peeler and smashed them with a kitchen knife to make a cold dish of smashed cucumbers, which is the most common dish eaten this summer.

Use a manual vegetable processor to crush the peeled garlic for seasoning. Put the cucumber pieces, diced garlic, sesame oil and salt, and chopped red sausage in a stainless steel bowl and mix well. That's it.

I steamed a few big buns in a small steamer. They tasted better when they were hot. I also cut a plate of refrigerated watermelon. I bought beer roast duck that morning and ate some of the hot roast duck skin. I put it on a plate in the afternoon without heating it. I prepared lunch and put it on a plate on the coffee table in the living room.

When I was cooking, I put on a cold fan hanging around my neck, but it blew warm air instead of cool air. I didn't feel that it had any cooling effect. Why did it get hotter and hotter? Even if I turned up the wind speed, it was still not very cool. The product is a bit heavy, and it is not very comfortable to wear for a long time in the hot summer. Because it is cheap, there are few air vents, and some places do not blow air, which also lacks a cool feeling. The price of a multi-faceted three-dimensional hair dryer is higher, one or two hundred or more, which is comparable to the price of some large fans, so I didn't buy it. I think the product is not as good as advertised and want to return it. After lunch and cleaning up the kitchen, I will apply for a return.

During the meal, the family mentioned something. The insurance company's policy freezing was illegal, and the total amount reported was incorrect, which was less than the total premium paid by the customer. She paid a total of more than 700,000 yuan in insurance for 20 years, but the insurance manager interface only showed 200,000 or 300,000 yuan, which violated the rights of consumers. The staff of the insurance company said that it was just a display problem. There are files to see. It is true that the full term has been paid, but there were many loans. Later, a policy of 200,000 yuan was reduced to 50,000 yuan. According to the system, only more than 3,000 yuan can be received each year. If it is an original policy, it is 20,000 yuan per year, and then it will be increased by 5% of the amount of the previous year each year. The maximum amount is 100,000 yuan per year (it takes decades to accumulate such a high amount. It starts at the age of 60. Only those who live long can get more protection. The longer you live, the more protection you will get). However, due to the reduction of insurance, the amount received each year has become less. The insurance company agreed to return the policy and restore the policy with the original amount, but the customer must pay back the loan in full. More than 100,000 yuan has been paid back, and there are still more than 300,000 yuan to pay back. If the debt cannot be repaid, this problem will be consumed, and they refuse to reduce the insurance again. The family communicated with the staff of the insurance company many times, but the result was still the same. They went back to the branch of the insurance company in their hometown many times to find the salesperson to solve the problem, but it could not be solved. I can only continue to complain and hope to solve the problem. The insurance company has a team of lawyers. After a meeting, they said that all the details should be printed out to consumers. It is wrong not to give consumers such data. However, the salesperson of the insurance company kept making excuses and refused. Some superiors disagreed. If there is a problem, they will push the responsibility to ordinary employees. Regarding the wrong reported numbers, the employees of the insurance company said that it was a problem with the software display. If the money is repaid, the original amount should be restored to reassure the customer that the amount is what it should be. My mother has overdrawn her credit card and repaid more than 100,000 insurance loans. She is still unable to repay the remaining 300,000. After returning the policy, she wants to reduce the insurance again. The insurance can be reduced to 7,000 or 10,000 yuan, but the insurance company disagrees and the problem is deadlocked. This matter still needs to be resolved. At least the customer's policy cannot be frozen. There should be basic rights and interests.

My family told me some other things. She said that her friend, the domineering woman, had a waitress who had been with her for more than ten years. She had been watching the store and selling goods in the local clothing store for many years. Some old families have the habit of getting along as sisters, and it seems that they get along well. The waitress got cancer some time ago. It costs a lot of money for treatment and recovery, but she not only did not get the condolence money from the boss, but also did not get a car. If her working ability decreases and she is not as capable as before, the boss will have to change people. The clothing store cannot lack trustworthy employees for a long time. Regarding such things, my mother thinks that the waitress has worked for her friend for so many years, and when the boss is not around, she regards herself as half the boss. The waitress's husband also drives and works for her. They have been with her for so many years and have met for many years. Now that she is sick, her friend should take out some money to help her. Her friend gave her daughter millions of cash as a dowry, and hundreds of thousands of money were added to the wedding banquet, but she could not compensate the people around her with hundreds of thousands of dollars. People who have made many contributions can be given some help.

I said that this matter had nothing to do with her, and that it was other people's business, and that they should arrange it. I said that my mother had opened several clothing stores and had employed dozens of people, but I didn't see how well she treated her employees, or how much extra money she could give them. When some employees had family problems, I didn't see her giving them large sums of money. When my mother heard what I said, she felt dissatisfied, and said that she felt she had done her best for her employees, and that she thought she was still okay with some of them.

Her distant relative, the son of one of her grandfather's cousins, was valued because he was a family member of a close relative. He came to the city to work early, working for the distant relative so that he could see more of the world. The man worked for her for many years, and then he started dating a waitress who worked for her. They dated for several years and later got married. It is said that they had a good relationship and trusted each other. They started their own business and no longer worked for the boss, but became their own boss by buying goods for the store.

More than 20 years ago, her family lost more than 2 million yuan in stocks, which made her bankrupt. Her ex-husband always scolded her and committed domestic violence. However, she had to give her ex-husband the money she owed him. She sold the remaining stocks and paid him more than 1 million yuan she promised. She was beaten and scolded for nothing, and she didn't know why. At that time, she had no interest in her career, and the couple took advantage of her to buy goods from many manufacturers in the south in her name, set up stalls, and wholesale clothing. In the early stage, she completely copied the clothing business model and did quite well. She was angry and blamed for such things. She could do business, but she couldn't buy goods in the name of the original boss to win the trust of the manufacturers. She didn't have so much money in the early stage, but she could get help from some manufacturers. Of course, that was for the favor of long-term partners, not for unfamiliar buyers. My mother thought it was a deceptive act, and she called some factory friends to tell them that they couldn't buy on credit. The two were no longer her employees, and if anything happened, she couldn't bear the consequences. I didn't care about such things later, but I still talk about it occasionally, thinking it was unreasonable and unrighteous. Last year, the man died. He was only in his forties. He had high blood pressure and suddenly fell ill. He was sent to a large hospital for treatment, but he couldn't be saved. His child was only in his teens. Although he had two houses in that central city, it was really difficult for him to leave behind an orphan and a widow. It was a pity.

That uncle was very good to my grandfather. When he got married, he let my grandfather fly back and gave him 5,000 yuan. He was very filial to my grandfather. He thought his second uncle was a good man and was especially worthy of respect. So he was also good to my grandfather's grandson. When I was in elementary school, I had contact with that man for many years. His wife was a college student. When I was in the first grade of junior high school, I tutored him. But later I parted ways with the original boss and never saw him again. I met that uncle a few times later. If it weren't for the investment in the entire film and television theater, which was lost, and the hundreds of thousands of yuan he earned that year were lost in investment, he wouldn't be so angry all the time. It was really unfortunate that he died so early. Although he still had real estate, I don't know if he had any loans or debts. His economic conditions were far worse than when he was doing business before. Although that man betrayed his boss, he helped with money and effort at my grandfather's funeral, which eased the relationship. Some things were not pursued or cared about. He thought that the past was over and he just had to do his best. My mother failed in her investment. She didn't expect that person to follow suit and believed the bad guy's sales pitch. She invested so much cash in some business, but she couldn't get it back. She did some other jobs, but they were ordinary. She didn't make as much money as she did in the past when she opened a store, but she lived a decent life. She knew that many people had high blood pressure, which was not uncommon, but she didn't expect the disease to suddenly deteriorate so seriously. If my grandfather were alive, he would feel very sorry. He was in his prime, his children were still in school, and he should have lived for many more years, but he left so early. It was really unfortunate.

With the education from my grandfather, I can be understanding and tolerant when I think my relatives do something wrong. The long-term influence of behavior has an invisible education, which is subtle and wins over the short-term, and the invisible wins over the visible.

With such education and habits, the impact on his son is not great, but the impact on his daughter is profound. My mother is more tolerant of relatives, even distant relatives. When she was a boss, she helped them. I still remember my grandfather's dream, hoping that his daughter would build a Hope Primary School for the countryside, with a better educational environment, so that the children there can have a good education from an early age. But it is hard to say whether some ideas can be realized. You can donate some money to build the Hope Project. Since I am not an entrepreneur, I don't have that much spare financial resources. Because I owe hundreds of thousands of yuan and don't want to sell the property, the insurance policy has been frozen, and I don't know how to solve that problem. I hope both sides can take a step back and find a moderate solution.

  For some things, you have to do them within your ability. You can't ask for too much or exceed your capabilities. You have to know when to act appropriately.
