Zhutian: Since I was a child, I have been happy to be a father

Four p.m.

Accompanied by Xun Jianxiang, Yang Xun came to the Song family.

He brought quite a few gifts, all of which were carefully prepared, nutritional supplements, snacks and toys specially for the two elders and Xiao Yin. The prices were reasonable and they did not violate any rules.

Giving gifts is also a science!

In fact, he would send gifts over during every festival.

The two elders are not fools. They will keep the suitable ones and return the favor later. They will not accept the too expensive ones, such as bird's nest and Maotai vintage wine. Why do they want them?
For example, the prices of various high-end seafood such as wild yellow croaker have skyrocketed. Do we have to eat them?

The two elders don’t know how to do it.

Chen Tao knows how to cook. This year he prepared a dish called Buddha Jumps Over the Wall. The ingredients are not too expensive. For his family, it is normal to have a good meal during the Chinese New Year.
living room.

Chen Tao sat on the sofa in the middle.

Liang Sisen held the little girl and sat beside him.

She paid no attention to Yang Xun who was sitting on the south side and looking at her curiously, but watched with great interest the program "Drunken Wu Dialect Commentary" on CCTV-1's "Cultural Gardens".

She had to admit that her cultural level was a bit poor and she needed to make up for it. After all, some of the love words that Chen said last night, she couldn't even understand at first, and she needed the teacher to explain them to her.

Perhaps some people think that it is understandable that she received American education at an early age and could not deeply understand the connotation of Chinese culture.

But the problem is that the teacher's understanding of American culture surpassed hers, and he could recite those English love poems at will.

It was extremely corny to hear her, but I felt very relieved.

Why is it gratifying? Because the teacher never says these things to someone.

Someone neither understands nor wants to listen.

Just say yes and yes, don't talk about these irrelevant things.

This made Liang Sisen feel that the teacher's soul had never belonged to anyone, and had never been tainted by even a trace of the other person's color. It had always remained pure for her until it was given to her without reservation last night.

Everything is destined.

Since it's hers, she can't run away.

No matter how hard someone tries, they can't control it.

What's more, not only did he not work hard, he also pushed it out with all his strength.

Xun Jianxiang, who was sitting in the north, introduced Yang Xun:
"This is Liang Sisen, a friend of Yunhui and me, and the boss who brought me to work in Hong Kong Island."

Although he didn't know what happened last night, he was clear about it. Besides, Liang Sisen was a student and it was inappropriate.

Liang Sisen naturally understood what he meant. She smiled and did not specifically state that she was his girlfriend.

Mainly because of Xiao Yin.

It takes at least ten days or half a month to adapt from being an older sister to being a stepmother.

Yang Xun smiled and praised, "Hello, Boss Liang. My name is Yang Xun, and I am also a good friend of Brother Xiaohui and Brother Daxun. Before, Brother Daxun didn't tell me, and I thought you were a middle-aged man. I didn't expect you to be such a young lady. You are really young and promising! I must learn from you in the future."

He was very smart and had already seen that the relationship between Liang Sishen and Chen Tao was unusual.

Liang Sishen held Xiao Yin in her arms and sat next to Chen Tao. The scene clearly looked like a family of three.

Then I thought about the news that Chen Tao and Cheng Kaiyan had divorced...

Yang Xun felt a chill in his heart.

According to the vivid rumors, the Cheng family has done all kinds of bad things, but now it seems that this may not be true.

Director Song, who he has always used as a pretext and a banner for, may not be as easy to fool as he imagined. It was probably his arrangement for Daxun to go to Hong Kong Island!

Liang Sisen didn't know and didn't want to know what he was thinking. She just nodded coldly and said, "Hello."

She loves her mother very much, so she doesn't like Yang Xun, and even hates him.

Making money is a means to improve the lives of yourself and your family, but it cannot be the ultimate goal.

Since your mother is worried about the debt and has trouble eating every day, then you should pay it back! It's not like you don't have the ability.

Indeed capable.

In the play, he was working with Liang Sisen to build a hotel, so it was barely understandable that he didn't pay back the money.

Now that Liang Sisen is gone, he would rather use all the money for the second and third phases, or even Xiao Ran's company, and has never thought about paying off the debt his mother borrowed for him.

He collaborated with Xiao Ran.

Xiao Ran used the 72 yuan he repaid and two plots of land near the wholesale market to acquire half of the shares of his wholesale market. He then used this half of the shares as collateral and cooperated with Liang Fan to borrow tens of millions from Liang Daolin to develop and operate office buildings in Shanghai.

With so much money, plus the pre-paid rent for the second and third phases, can't it be used to pay off the debt of more than 200,000 yuan?
If we pay it back, we won’t be able to build the market?

Nonsense.

Just as he once said to Xun Jianxiang, even if he paid it back, he would let his mother borrow again, and he didn't care about the psychological pressure his mother would feel from borrowing money.

There is also the physical burden caused by taking on so much debt and being frugal.

Since his mother can endure hardship, let her eat more. When he, as a filial son, feels that he has earned enough, he will let her enjoy life.

"..."

Yang Xun was quite bothered by Liang Sisen's coldness.

Friends of friends may never necessarily become friends. This is normal and you don't have to mind it.

But the problem is that Liang Sisen is not an ordinary friend. If Liang Sisen becomes his sister-in-law in the future, and still dislikes him and keeps talking nonsense, can he still use Xiaohui's name as his friend?

Xiao Ranke looked down on him and would not be his backer, nor would he allow him to misuse Guo Rong's name.

Even if he was allowed to use it, he couldn't afford the price.

With just a few words, he asked for half of the shares of the wholesale market. He didn't dare to mess with this red-skinned crocodile.

If Liang Sisen in the play was like Xiao Ran, then even if his head was filled with seeds, he would not dare to plot against her.

But he didn't expect that although Liang Sisen was inexperienced and easy to fool, her family members were all big sharks.

Seeing that Liang Sisen was not willing to pay attention to Yang Xun, Chen Tao put down his teacup and took over the conversation:

"Yang Xun, has the market been going well during this period?"

His question did not mean that he cared about Yang Xun's career.

Yang Xun would not tell his actual situation, but only gave a brief account.

But Xiao Ran was mentioned.

Liang Sisen suddenly became concerned and wanted to ask about Xiao Ran's situation, but Chen Tao gently rubbed her arm with his right elbow, so the words came to her lips but she took them back.

If it were Cheng Kaiyan, she would probably just ask stupidly: Why are you rubbing against me?
Chen Tao warned: "This Boss Xiao is selling land and is going to Shanghai to do real estate business. His background is not simple. You have to be more careful."

If Yang Xun knew about the relationship between Liang Sishen and Liang Fan, given his personality, he would definitely try to seduce Liang Fan secretly, and it would be strange if he was not eaten up by Liang Fan by then.

Therefore, Chen Tao did this not only to protect him, but also because he did not want Liang Sisen to be involved.

Liang Sisen's hands are very clean, it's best not to get stained, just wait for those in the Liang family who don't like her to look up to her. Chen Tao will not flatter the Liang family or Liang Sisen's grandfather's Wang family, he can only accept living with Liang Sisen.

As for whether Yang Xun will learn about Liang Sisen from Xiao Ran in the future and then hook up with Liang Fan, that has nothing to do with Chen Tao and Liang Sisen.

Chen Tao is not Song Yunhui, nor is he the father of Yang Xun and Lei Dongbao, so he will not spend too much time thinking about them.

In fact, there was no need for him to interfere with these two.

Yang Xun is quite rich. He drives a Lada and uses a mobile phone. How many people have the same conditions as him these days?
Lei Dongbao later drove the same Tiger Benz as Uncle Xia Shu, and even let his mistress Feng Xinxin give birth to a child for him. Does he still need to care?

He just needs to mind his own business.

Yang Xun sighed and said, "Alas, I don't really want to cooperate with him! But you also know that businessmen like them are willing to invest money and land in order to show their respect to you, Brother Xiaohui. I can't refuse."

This is certainly true.

But the purpose of his saying this was not to state the facts, but to ask Chen Tao to provide more protection.

Of course, he is also willing to offer generous protection fees. After all, this way, not only will the risk be smaller, but he can also have a green light all the way and earn more.

But Chen Tao was stunned as if he was possessed by Section Chief Ma. He didn't respond at all and immediately changed the subject:

"By the way, why didn't you bring your mother and brothers and sisters over to celebrate the New Year? They must have missed you a lot."

In the play, not only did Yang Xun not invite his family to celebrate the Spring Festival, he also got flowers and drove to the Huating Hotel in Shanghai to show his courtesy to Liang Sisen.

Less than a month later, probably only twenty days later, his single mother, who had suffered all her life, was diagnosed with stomach cancer, and it was already in the late stage.

To be honest, I finally made it through.

After I went there, I finally didn't have to worry anymore.

Yang Xun and Liang Sisen, who was looking at him, looked at each other and said helplessly:
"Of course I want to spend the New Year with them, but the market is too busy and I really don't have time. Once the New Year is over, I will go home immediately."

In fact, he wanted to play the victim and say that he still lived in the office, had not bought a house, and had no place to live when his family came over.

But after thinking about it, I decided to forget it.

He speaks to different people according to their taste. Liang Sisen is a Hong Kong businessman. She is well-dressed and elegant, and doesn't look like an ordinary person. If there is a chance in the future, they may not be unable to cooperate.

And what does cooperation rely on?
Of course it depends on strength.

You can live in the office, which means you are working hard on your career.

But if you can only live in the office, it means that you have no ability and are not qualified to cooperate with others.

They live in mansions worth tens of millions and travel by Mercedes-Benz. You can only live in an office, drive a Lada, and get stuck in traffic all the time. How can you cooperate with them?
At your level, can you really provide people with what they want and achieve a win-win situation?
Chen Tao nodded in agreement: "The wholesale market is really busy during the holidays, so why don't you have a New Year's Eve dinner at my place!"

He gave so many gifts, so Chen Tao made some delicious food by himself and let him taste it, which could be considered as a way of returning the favor.

Yang Xun happily agreed.

In this way, sometimes he doesn't need to say anything else, just say that the New Year's Eve dinner cooked by Director Song is delicious, and he can ask certain people to do him a favor or save him some trouble.

7:40 pm.

Chen Tao's family of five, as well as Yang Xun and Xun Jianxiang, sat around the octagonal table and enjoyed the New Year's Eve dinner.

At this time, CCTV-1 was broadcasting the program "Shenzhou Style", which was about the neighboring Bulk Province.

This was followed by the “Golden Rooster Crowing” program, which introduced various types of chickens, as well as sports highlights.

At eight o'clock, the Spring Festival Gala officially began.

Without being partial to the past or contemptuous of the present, even most of the programs in the current Spring Festival Gala are boring.

But as background music, it is still acceptable.

Eight forty.

Since he was busy, Yang Xun naturally had to go back to the market earlier.

Xun Jianxiang was also very tactful and left with him.

The two elders of the Song family wanted to watch the Spring Festival Gala. After giving the little girl and Liang Sishen some New Year's money, they went back to their bedroom to rest.

10:30 p.m.

Chen Tao took the little girl and Liang Sishen out to set off firecrackers.

Liang Sisen also released a few of them personally.

It’s nothing, she is quite familiar with American Iai, it’s just setting off firecrackers, no big deal.

After setting off the firecrackers, Chen Tao let the little girl go to rest first, and then went back to the room to talk with her sister Si Shen.

Sitting on the bed, Liang Sisen took out the New Year's money wrapped in red paper and asked, "What do you mean?"
"I'm almost 25, and I'm still accepting New Year's money. Isn't that a bit inappropriate?"

Chen Tao laughed: "As long as you are not married and have a child, you can accept the New Year's money. I will prepare some for you later..."

Liang Sishen complained: "If I'm not married by the age of 30, can I still accept it?"

Chen Tao hugged her and said, "As long as there is someone willing to give it to you, you can take it."

He kissed her again and said jokingly:
"Dear, you can accept money from others, but you can't take people!"

Liang Sisen chuckled: "If I don't want anyone, won't I have to take New Year's money for the rest of my life?"

Chen Tao said seriously: "I am indeed very busy now, but in five years, I will definitely retire and accompany you and our children wholeheartedly."

By 1998, it was almost done.

In the decade from then until 2008…

Chen Tao has fought for so many years, can't he enjoy himself? He can enjoy himself and study at the same time, combining work and rest!

Liang Sishen was satisfied.

In fact, given the current situation, she really wants the teacher to give up everything for her and go to live with her in Hong Kong Island.

But she knew the teacher's ideal, so she never said it.

Now, the teacher has taken the initiative to give time, and it’s only five years. What else can I ask for?
She said emotionally: "Teacher, I am willing to wait! I have waited for more than ten years. It doesn't matter if I wait another five, ten, or even twenty years."

Now it was Chen Tao's turn to complain: "Why did you wait for more than ten years? You were just a little girl at the time. Do you know what love is?"

Liang Sisen snorted, "Although I didn't understand at the beginning, and I don't know when I fell in love with you, my feelings for you originated from the time when we were together. So in these more than ten years, maybe only the last one or two years are love, but other feelings are also very precious to me and cannot be removed. Without the Sisen of that time, there would be no Sisen who loves the teacher now. Since you love me, you have to love me back then."

Chen Tao praised: "Isn't that a good point? So-called love words come from the heart, there is no need to learn them. Even if you don't have enough literary literacy and can't perfectly express your feelings, for me, just a sincere "I love you" can be better than a thousand words."

Liang Sisen's eyes were burning, "We can have a child first, right?"

By the way, he and Liang Sisen needed to report their marriage and also report their children.

Just report it!

At worst, you can just leave your leadership position and focus on scientific research!

If we can bring out an elite scientific research team as soon as possible and produce results, our ideal will be realized faster. (End of this chapter)
