Chapter 140 Another Year

Give the things I brought back to my parents: "These are the things we bought in the capital. I'll go next door to see Uncle Cao."

To be honest, he was quite grateful to Cao Weimin. If he didn't have Cao Weimin's bag of watches, he wouldn't know how much money he could make in the Year of the Monkey.

It happened that I brought a lot of things back from the capital, so I grabbed a bag at random, and went to the next door without even drinking water.

Came to the door of Cao's house and knocked on the door.

Soon a voice was heard from inside: "Here we come."

Following the sound of footsteps, the door opened a few seconds later.

The person who opened the door was Cao Weimin.

"Uncle Cao, long time no see." Su Chen smiled and handed over the things in his hand.

Seeing that it was Su Chen, Cao Weimin also smiled and said, "It's you, come in and sit down."

Su Chen stepped into Cao's house and saw that Cao Weimin was the only one in the house, so he asked, "Uncle, are you the only one at home to celebrate the New Year this year?"

"Your aunt and the others haven't come back yet." Cao Weimin said with a smile, "We haven't seen each other for a long time, so we just sat down and had a good chat."

Su Chen nodded, and as soon as he sat down, Cao Weimin poured him a glass of water.

"Uncle, I haven't seen you for so long, where did you get rich?" Su Chen asked.

Cao Weimin smiled: "Since I left the capital, I have been developing in Zhejiang, didn't I write to you to ask about the situation in the capital?
Later, I went to the capital again, and found that the capital was indeed monopolized by others, and it was difficult for outsiders to intervene, so I returned to Zhejiang. "

"Then how long are you going to stay this time?"

"Maybe we have to stay at home for a while. You talked about this situation with me when we were in the capital, so today we, uncle and nephew, have a good talk about how long this situation will last."

Cao Weimin said: "Those people who were in business with me before have already entered. Depending on the situation, it will be difficult to let them out. If I hadn't withdrawn early, I guess they would have entered by now."

Su Chen shook his head: "It's hard to say, and now you may see that the situation is still getting worse. No one knows when the wind will stop, so it's better to be careful."

"Yes, fortunately I was careful when you told me, otherwise..." He shook his head: "So I went home early, just worried about what would happen, and now all the business in my hand has stopped come down."

"It's hard to do anything in this situation now, let's wait for two years." Su Chen couldn't give any better advice.

Cao Weimin nodded: "Yes, the current situation can only wait and see how it changes, and I can't come up with a better idea, because this is no longer something we can solve."

After a pause, he continued to ask: "If this gust of wind doesn't subside, wouldn't there be no way for us people to survive?"

"It will definitely subside, but there is no telling when it will be, so let's wait patiently. This is not something we can control."

Su Chen analyzed: "I estimate that it may last for a while, but how long it will last, it is uncertain that this estimate can only be decided by the big leaders."

"By the way, it seems that we can only wait and see." Cao Weimin asked again: "The bag of watches I gave you last time, how is the business doing?"

"Thanks to Uncle Cao, I made a little money and finally improved my standard of living, but because I dare not take too big a step, there are no other good developments now."

Su Chen smiled: "Because I'm still a college student, I don't dare to do too much, so I stop when I make a little money, and now I still focus on my studies."

"Safety comes first. If something happens, it will be troublesome."

Cao Weimin patted Su Chen on the shoulder: "Anyway, after graduating from university in two years, you will be able to enter the unit to work, and the position will definitely not be low. At that time, I will trouble you to support me as an elder."

"Based on the relationship between our uncle and nephew, it's outrageous to say these words." Su Chen said with a smile: "Uncle Cao, you will come to my house for dinner later, and Auntie and the others will also come together."

"Okay, I'll go with them when they come back." Cao Weimin nodded.

"Then I'll go back first and help my parents cook."

Cao Weimin waved his hand.

Coming out of Cao's house, Su Chen didn't stop, and went straight home.

It didn't take long to go home and help out together.

Cao Weimin's family of four came to visit as guests, and they still came with gifts.

His wife is from the countryside and has two daughters.

After entering, his wife and his eldest daughter enthusiastically stepped forward to help.

His eldest daughter was also sweet, and everyone yelled at her brothers, uncles and aunts, but his youngest daughter seemed a little timid.

He has two daughters, the oldest is 17 years old.

Su Chen asked curiously: "Uncle, why didn't you arrange for them to go to school in the city?"

"This time I came back to move their household registration to the city."

Cao Weimin explained: "At the same time, we should also implement their schooling. The appearance of a person is not important, the most important thing is to have knowledge, and knowledge can change everything."

"Correct."

Su Chen agreed with Cao Weimin's words.

"Although I, Cao Weimin, don't have any sons, I can't let the studies of the two girls be left behind." Cao Weimin smiled heartily: "I'm still waiting for them to grow up and inherit my estate."

"Yes, my daughter needs to be rich." Su Chen said, "As long as you discipline her carefully, she will definitely achieve success in the future."

"That is, it doesn't matter whose daughters they are." Cao Weimin showed a puzzled smile: "Daughters are more worry-free."

But Su Chen didn't know whether what he said was true or not.

With the help of Cao Weimin's wife and daughter, dinner was ready in no time.

At the dinner table, Cao Weimin and Su Weiguo naturally started to drink, and everyone chatted while eating.

"Your big brother is amazing. He was the number one student in our college entrance examination the year before last, and now he is studying in Beijing."

Cao Weimin glanced at his two daughters: "I don't expect you to achieve much in the future, but you can't be left behind in learning. It's best to learn from your brother Su."

His two daughters nodded fiercely.

The most talked about at the dinner table is about learning, and the business is not mentioned at all.

After drinking and eating, Cao Weimin's family offered to leave.

After they left, Su Weiguo said: "Weimin has changed a lot during this time, and I don't know when he became enlightened and willing to bring his wife and children to the city."

"The change is quite big. It is a good thing to bring your wife and children to the city. It's better than being a heartless person." Wei Hong nodded: "I think his eldest daughter can still work diligently, and she is also very good." polite."

"Maybe it will change after experiencing some things outside." Su Weiguo lit a cigarette, and then said: "It's pretty good now, by the way, do you think we should visit Xue's house some other day?"

"Visit?" Wei Hong hesitated for a moment: "The matter of the two children has not yet been settled. It's not good for us elders to be in such a hurry."

Not only was Su Chen speechless, he began to persuade:
"If it really happens, it's not too late for you to visit again. It's the Chinese New Year now, and it's still snowing outside, so there's no need to go out again. It's not good to put pressure on others."

Su Weiguo nodded: "That's right, let's look at your own first. If you succeed, it won't be too late for your mother and I to visit again."

After hanging around at home for a few days and asking someone to apply for a few documents, the Spring Festival will be ushered in.

There is no change from the previous two years, it is nothing more than eating big fish and meat, and then the neighbors walk around each other to say hello to each other, and there is nothing to write about the various parents and families.

Cao Weimin's eldest daughter and the girl from the Xu family next door have become good friends.

The two of them are always in focus when they go out every day!

Since the little friend came, the girl from the Xu family rarely came to the door.

Su Chen happened to be quiet.

On the fifth day of the Lunar New Year, he left his hometown and went to the capital.

Because he is going south during the Spring Festival.

Hey, it seems that the crew of "Dream of Red Mansions" has also started preparations, right?

However, it is estimated that he can't even make a fool of himself.

He went to the capital with him, and Xue Yu, the two of them made an appointment to go out together.

Go around and go back to Sanmiao Street.

As soon as he entered the door, Xue Yu said: "It's still comfortable to stay in the capital, and various relatives will visit during the Chinese New Year."

"No one will match you this year?" Su Chen asked curiously.

"Maybe it's because I'm getting older, so no one is willing to come to my door anymore, and at my age, usually those matchmakers who match me up are widowers or old bachelors in their forties. .”

Xue Yu sighed: "It's not a problem to stay at home all day. It's better to come back early. Anyway, I'm at home now. When people look at me, I'm the kind of old woman who can't get married. People just look down on me."

"Don't pay attention to them, the mouth grows on people, we can't stop what other people want to say, anyway, there will always be someone behind to chew the tongue." Su Chen held her hand: "We can just live on our own."

……

After resting in the capital for two days, Su Chen boarded the train heading south.

Because he is very busy and busy making money, this time he went south for a plan to make money...
