A trip starting from the courtyard

Chapter 579

Jiang Lai leaned over to Jiang's father and handed him a small gift box, "Dad, happy new year."

"Okay, Lailai, Happy New Year." Father Jiang happily accepted the gift from his daughter, and then reached out his hand to take out a small red envelope from his coat pocket.

Jiang Lai said thank you and took over this year's lucky money.

Squeeze, a bank card, it should be the same as last year.

200 million in hand, happy.

After stuffing the red envelope into his pocket, he came to Mother Jiang and presented the gift he had prepared, "Mom, Happy New Year."

Jiang's mother accepted the gift with a smile, put it aside, took her daughter to look around carefully, and found that there was no major change, and complained: "What are you busy with recently, I called you and hung up without saying a few words. I won't come back for dinner." While speaking, she also took out a red envelope and stuffed it into her daughter's hand.

Touched it, it was hard, and it was another 200 million, "Recently, the restaurant is being remodeled, and there are a lot of things."

Half a month ago, the Cloud Restaurant couldn't hold on any longer. There were so few customers every day, and there was even a whiteboard, and everyone was called together to figure out the way out.

Of course the cooks didn't want to lose their jobs, so they racked their brains to figure out how to keep the cloud alive without laying them off.

Nowadays, most of the high-end western restaurants in Pearl are laying off the kitchen staff on a large scale.

There is no way, more and more Gray Whale restaurants are opening, their business is in a straight decline just like the cloud, and they are all thinking about changing course or cutting costs.

If the cloud goes bankrupt and they lose their jobs, where can they find such high wages today.

In the end, I really came up with a good idea, the coffee western restaurant, so that they don't have to lose their jobs, and they can reduce a lot of work.

Jiang Lai and Lu Yuan discussed it together, and they both felt that the idea was good, so they waved their hands, reform!
If Jiang Lai had been so enterprising before, the old couple would definitely be very happy.

But after half a year of observation, they found that their daughter was really not suitable for business.

A small restaurant, opened for half a year, has lost 4000 million yuan. Jiang Lai also knows where the biggest hole is, but for a man, he just keeps it there
Proper prodigal son!
The old couple often sigh recently, but luckily they are not the eldest son.

"Okay, let's eat." Father Jiang checked the time, it was six o'clock, he got up and said, "Lai Lai, how long is your store closed this time?"

"It will not open until the fifteenth day of the first lunar month."

"Then stay at home for a few more days. Let's go back to our hometown together on the fourth day of the new year. Zhihui from the third aunt's family will get married on the fifth day of the new year."

Jiang Lai walked forward to the restaurant, holding his father's arm,
"Zhihui. I remember that he is seven or eight years younger than me. He shouldn't be old enough to receive a certificate this year, right?"

Jiang's father said: "The little guy has a date, and it was found out a while ago that he was expelled from the school because of this matter. The girl's house made trouble at your third aunt's house, and you know how the third uncle behaves. I was half dead, and then decided to take advantage of the girl's belly and decided to hold the banquet first, and then get the certificate when she is old."

After the family sat down, Jiang Lai snatched the wine bottle from the nanny and graciously poured wine for the three of them. The old couple happily praised their daughter for growing up.

Wang Lidong rolled his eyes. He didn't believe that the old couple didn't know Jiang Lai's plan. Every time they do doglegs, they must be asking for something, and there is a high probability that they will be short of money again.
But he didn't expose it, it's big, there's no need to make the atmosphere stiff, anyway, it wasn't his pocket
After eating the New Year's Eve dinner, I checked the time, and it was already 08:30, and it took almost 2 hours to eat a meal.

The family returned to the living room and began to watch the State TV Gala. Jiang Lai helped Jiang's mother peel the pistachios and asked, "Mom, where is Zhihui's partner?"

"It seems to make me think about it." Mother Jiang thought for a while, and said, "The little girl in Zhenhai District is only 17 years old this year. Lai Lai, after today, you will be 28 years old, and you will be 30 in two years. Well, once a woman passes [-], she will age very quickly, and when she has a baby, she will recover very slowly."

"Mom, Dad, there is something I want to discuss with you."

The old couple looked at their daughter together, Jiang's mother said:
"what's up?"

Jiang Lai said: "Mom and Dad, I discussed it with Lu Yuan and plan to get married on May [-]st this year."

After she finished speaking, she looked at her father. Although her mother didn't like Lu Yuan, she would babble at most when she knew about it, but she would never object.But Dad is different, he doesn't like Lu Yuan very much, and when he mentions marriage, he will definitely jump up.

Um? !The two are going to get married?

Some small accidents, but it's only a matter of time if you think about it, I didn't expect that the "little death expert" Jiang Lai was so stupid today, it was because of this!

"I don't agree!" Father Jiang patted the armrest heavily with a 'slap': "I don't ask you to marry someone of the right family. But at least find someone with good character who will treat you well.

Which one does Lu Yuan meet? ! .Smuggled, imprisoned, set on fire, and killed a good friend. His character is too bad. A man like him cannot be a good husband. "

"Dad, what you said was all done for Gan Jing." Jiang Lai poked his neck, "Anyway, I've got him in my sights, and I won't marry unless he is the only one."

Father Jiang pointed at his daughter with a red face, and said angrily, "You! Do you feel that your wings are hard! I can't control you anymore!"

Jiang's mother hurriedly persuaded her daughter: "Lai Lai, quickly admit your mistake to your father. We will not harm you, just listen to a word of persuasion.

Lu Yuan is too dangerous. Look at those who were kind to him before, and those who got close to him, which one will end well? This kind of person is the fate of the lonely star of the gods as the old saying goes. No way. "

"Mom, what age is it, you still believe this. It's all feudal dross, and it's a lie." Jiang Lai pointed to Wang Lidong, who was holding small walnuts in a clip, and said: "My brother, Lu Yuan used to be on good terms. Brother, for so many years, my brother has always been fine. Gan Jing is also, nothing happened, "

Wang Lidong broke open the small walnuts, took out the pulp inside, and put it in a small bowl, "Who told you it doesn't matter!"

Jiang Lai stared and said:

"What's the impact?"

"Look around us, there are a few who are almost 40 years old and not yet married.

As for Gan Jinghe, he was cheated by Lu Yuan and lost two houses in half a year, and now he can only rent a house to live in. He is 37 this year, if he wants to marry a satisfactory man in this life, don’t count on it.”

Father Jiang said: "Lai Lai, look at your brother, as soon as we draw a clear line with that Lu Yuan, we will have a girlfriend immediately, and in a few months, your mother and I will be grandparents!"

Jiang Lai shook his head and said, "My brother didn't get married because of Gan Jing. How can you blame Lu Yuan? As for Gan Jing, that's my brother."

The old couple persuaded for a long time, and their mouths were dry, but Jiang Lai seemed to be determined after eating the bastard.

"Mom and Dad, don't try to persuade me. I've decided in this life that I will only marry Lu Yuan." Jiang Lai then threw a big mine: "I'm pregnant, and it belongs to Lu Yuan."

"What?! Pregnant??"

The old couple were shocked, and they were stunned for a long time before they came back to their senses. Father Jiang got up "Teng" and went up to the second floor without looking back.

"Lao Jiang, Lao Jiang." Mother Jiang said to her daughter, "Lai Lai, hurry up and apologize to your father!"

"Oh!" Jiang Lai put down the pistachios in his hand, and 'Teng Teng Teng' ran up to the second floor.

"Hey, Lai Lai, run slowly." Seeing that her daughter was acting like usual, Jiang's mother was frightened and told her.

"Okay, mom, she's such an adult, she knows the seriousness." Wang Lidong pulled Jiang's mother who was about to go upstairs, and sat down again.

Jiang Lai's words, if five out of ten sentences are true, it is not bad.

Whether she is really pregnant or not, she knows in her heart.

"Haokun, although you and Lailai don't have a good relationship, you are also his brother. Find a time to have a good talk with her and persuade her."

Wang Lidong is not interested in doing such thankless things, Lu Yuan is not a good person, not a good match, Jiang Lai is a good wife? !

Whoever wants to marry this kind of woman must have a hat on his forehead.

In his opinion, the two are actually quite a match, a natural pair.

"Mom, it's not that you don't know Lai Lai's character. Now that she's determined, she won't be able to bring back even ten cows. No matter how much she says, she always goes in one ear and out the other. Isn't there an old saying, 'Zi Feiyu' , Anzhi Yuzhile?' You have persuaded, but Lailai still insists, so let her go."

A good New Year's Eve dinner was disturbed by Jiang Lai who was "uncomfortable if you don't want to die".

Early the next morning, the old couple took Wang Lidong out together, as for Jiang Lai, who is pregnant, they don't have to go together.

During the whole Spring Festival, the three of them were either visiting relatives or going to their relatives’ homes. They met Mingzhu for a while, and Zhoushan for a while. Fortunately, the two places are very close. .
On the fifteenth day of the first lunar month, after eating the Lantern Festival, the Chinese New Year is finally over, and it's the auction day for 'Super Chef'.
