marriage is natural

Chapter 419 The Bitten Apple
However, the facts are more serious than He Wei guessed.

"Old Lin came to ask your father to resign last week, saying that he had other places to go in the beginning of the new year. For the sake of our family treating him kindly, I made a special announcement a year ago, so as not to be unable to find someone to work in the beginning of the year and affect the business. Me and It was useless for your father to keep him, so he sealed a big red envelope and agreed to this matter. I didn't know, two days ago I went to the Mingzhu Mall to pay for the goods, and found that most of the wooden consignments on the counter were replaced by "Lin Kee" Goods, I was puzzled, after chasing after the counter staff to find out the situation, Lin Shuigen didn't go to work at another house, he simply went to the sea to open a wood shop and robbed our business..."

When it comes to this matter, Hemu's good mood is gone forever.

Originally, I wanted to hide it from the two children.It's rare to go home for a new year, and you have to go back to Beijing to go to school after the new year. Don't be depressed and have a bad year because of family business matters.So the couple made an appointment before going out, and no one said anything about it.Who would have thought that the two children are so smart, and they are clearly talking about going back to their hometown for the New Year, so they know that the family's business is not good?
Hemu couldn't hide her expression, she felt aggrieved by her son's words, and just after she sighed, tears began to flow down her cheeks.

It's been like this for the past few days. Whenever I talk about this matter, I can't help but wipe my tears.He was also annoyed, first because of the unkind practices of the old Lin family, and then because of the business that was robbed.Seeing that the children are coming back soon, yesterday I just tried not to cry, it's not good for the children to come back and see the problem.

But even if I haven't wiped tears for a day, my eyelids are still swollen badly.I got up this morning and looked in the mirror again and again, but I couldn't get over it.What should I do? I remembered that I heard a coup from the fruit shop proprietress earlier, which is to apply hot boiled eggs to the eyes, and keeping them can reduce swelling.He also said that foreigners all do this, and the effect is old.

Hemu didn't care whether to believe it or not at this time, opened the refrigerator door, and left six of the free-range eggs stored at home for the children to make soft-boiled eggs, and cooked the rest, wrapped them in gauze and rolled them one by one. On the eyelids, apply a dozen eggs back and forth, cool one for another, and throw the replaced ones to Lao He for breakfast, choking so much that He's father couldn't stop belching.I kept applying it until noon, and finally I could not see the trace of crying, so I went out with confidence.

Who would have thought that his son would blow up what the couple was planning to hide with a single sentence.

Now that it's out of the way, He Mu didn't hide it any more, and said in a crackling voice, she wiped her reddish eyes and scolded the unkind Lin Shuigen's family: "...I think when their family was in trouble, our family treated them poorly. How nice are they? Not only did they help his daughter drive away the rotten man who cheated on her marriage, but they also arranged work for the two of them, and their wages were much higher than when they were in the furniture factory. Especially Lao Lin, apart from the negotiated Basic salary, and a commission for each job. Even he himself said in a succinct manner: Our family’s salary is the highest in the industry. But look, their family, he, his wife, and his daughter How did you treat us again? What a kindness! "

As Mother He spoke, her eyes turned red again, and Father He sighed from the side: "Okay, you've been talking about this for a few days? The children just came back, why keep bringing up these unpleasant things."

He Mu stared at her tearfully: "Their family has done such a shameless thing, why don't you want me to scold you a few words?"

"Happy! But it's rare for the children to go home, so you can't let them worry about it. Isn't it just a new year? Let's talk about something happy, huh? When the new year starts, the children go back to school. If you continue to scold me, I will Definitely fine."

"Get out!" Hemu was annoyed.

Father He, who has always been reticent, has come up with a routine of comforting others these days.He Mu, who was the object of comfort, was used to it, but the brothers and sisters who were not used to it could not help laughing.

Back to business after laughing.

He Xidong frowned and said, "Mom, didn't the counter sign a long-term agreement with us? How can we terminate the contract? Then we can use the agreement to sue him for breach of contract. After the cooperation is over, we can compensate him and don't even think about escaping. "

He Wei and Yuanyuan nodded together.

He Mu knew that they would react in this way, because she and Lao He thought the same way before, but they took the agreement and ran to the counter to argue, and it turned out that they were more confident than them.

"...What did you say that there was an agreement in the agreement, if they find a supply channel with better quality and lower price, they have the right to unilaterally terminate the contract... I was so angry that my lungs would explode, and we Is the price still high? I don’t feel guilty if I change the carpenter to estimate the price. Our work is not as rough as the machine. Didn’t he want to give them such a low price because of small profits but quick turnover? He wants good wood, fine workmanship, and low price, so he will find one for me...

In the end, what do you guess, what is the price offered by the old Lin family?Each piece of wood is two yuan lower than ours.As for the excellent quality, I was pissed at the time, what a thing!Referring to the drawings of our house and using the same wood as our house, it is estimated that it is to guard against our trick. The first batch of goods supplied to the counters are made with fine craftsmanship, and those with high quality, I will give them to you. Lin Shuigan gave a thumbs up.But how dare he guarantee that the next batch of jobs will be like this?Does he dare?Of course not!I don’t know what he’s up to, it’s just grabbing business, and then raising the price when he gets it. If he mentions the same price as ours, as long as it’s not lower than ours, there’s nothing he can do about it.The quality will not be as fine as the first batch..."

The mother of He became more and more angry as she spoke, her chest heaved and her face flushed. He Wei was afraid that she would faint from her anger, so she hurriedly said, "Mom, don't be angry. If you get angry, you will suffer yourself? Isn't it the one at the counter?" As for business, it can be easier for Dad to do less work. Isn’t our online store business already established? In the future, if you maintain the online store more, the orders will only increase and not decrease.”

"You know what." When mentioning the online store, Hemu became even more angry, "That girl Lin Shuigan found someone to build an online store that is almost the same as ours. The name of the store is 'Lin Jin Kee' after us. What did you add at the bottom?"

Hemu turned around and asked Hefu who was driving.

He's father doesn't know many words, but he has a good memory. The son of the fruit shop owner said it once and he memorized it. He listened to He's mother's question and answered smoothly: "'Authentic family of wood crafts'..."

"Yes! You said you want to be shameless? He, Lao Lin, entered the furniture factory as an apprentice in the same year as your father. I remember the names of the masters he worshiped clearly. He even called a family of carpenters. He counted several generations for me. Come out. Oh, don’t tell me he’s the first generation, and use the ones passed down in advance, right? If it’s possible, our family can also be called a family of carpentry, no! It’s a family of carpentry Ancestor! Can your father's handicraft be better than his?"

The three children held back their laughter and endured the pain.However, Hemu was really angry, and continued to complain: "Also, a few master carvers came to say the day before yesterday that Lao Lin hired them to work with him. The basic salary is the same as ours, and the commission is half a point more. , that's all right, three of them will go away with a bang..."

Because of this incident, the couple had not had time to rush to the Lin family to ask for an explanation.

Once the three master carvers left, the work originally assigned to them would be shared among the remaining masters, and the remaining masters had to be appeased.Father He didn't have a lot of work, but wood carving was not his specialty, so after apportioning part of the work, the rest had to be moved to the next year.Fortunately, when the order was received, the delivery time was relatively generous, otherwise it would really be a mess.

Now the children couldn't laugh anymore, especially He Xidong.

What a mess!Grabbing business, robbing workers, and even snatching the design of the online store after the end, don't you want to be more shameless?
Thinking back, how much effort did he put into designing his own online store?I stayed up until 03:30 in the morning for several nights before falling asleep.Fortunately for the Lin family, they waved their sleeves and took away the fruits of hard work that belonged to his He family.

But thinking about it the other way around, the business has been robbed, so why keep so many master carvers?It's okay to raise a white worker!Moreover, the person who can be taken away by mere small profits must not be a loyal master.It's better to leave early.

So I persuaded my parents: "Mom and Dad, since this happened, we can only think about it. Take it as a lesson, and don't be emotional when recruiting and hiring people in the future. There are many white-eyed wolves who are not familiar with it in this world. Special counter Over there, the things with small profits but quick turnover, the Lin family will give them what they want, and see how they take it down, automatically and spontaneously lower the price, and meticulously crafted, this business will not last long. As for the online store, I will ask later The website, like the Lin family’s practice, is not an infringement. It’s best if the website is willing to take care of it, if not, I’ll find a classmate to design a better and better storefront, keep it to attract customers.”

Father He and Mother He nodded together.The children are different when they grow up, it feels like they have found a backbone.

Naturally, He Xidong didn't know what his parents were feeling, so he smiled and said, "Mom and Dad, Weiwei and I have good news to report, do you want to hear it?"

"What's the good news? The results of the final exam came out? You got a scholarship?" He Mu asked with her head tilted.The righteous indignation just now was taken away by the topic of his son.

"It's not this." He Xidong cleared his throat, and under the smiling eyes of his baby sister and Yuanyuan, he announced, "Me, I made 13 in stocks last year, the first year to break through the [-] mark." Oh, isn't that good news? It's something to be happy about, isn't it?"

"Happy, happy!" Hemu smiled happily.

"Well, Weiwei, cough, you two calm down, don't get dizzy after hearing this, especially Dad, you are keeping the lives of the five of us safe. Or forget it and talk about it when you go home, I'm afraid you two will hear it stimulated."

It's all right if you don't talk about it, it's all about this, Hemu can bear it, and keeps urging her son to start talking: "Just tell me what's going on, isn't it good news? Since it's good news, You're still afraid that your father and I will get dizzy, so hurry up and talk!"

"Hey hey..." He Xidong couldn't help laughing first.One hundred and eighty thousand, he doesn't believe that his parents don't get dizzy.I think he was dizzy at the time, and he went back to the dormitory for a whole night of silly fun, and was treated as a lunatic by his roommates.

Hemu slapped him on the forehead in a funny way, then turned to ask her daughter: "Weiwei, your brother is stupid, let's ignore him, what's the good news? Tell parents Lele."

"Auntie, let me tell you." Yuanyuan announced the answer with a smile: "Sister, she went to the antique street once, and picked out a rough jadeite without spending any money, and produced a chicken oil yellow high-ice jadeite, with a net profit of 800 million! "

Hemu doesn't understand technical terms such as raw stone, chicken oil yellow, and high ice species, but he understands the word "800 million", but he is afraid that he may have misunderstood it, and 800 yuan sounds like 800 million. , So I asked again: "How much do you earn?"

"800 million!" Yuanyuan and He Xidong said in unison.

He Mu heard clearly this time, nothing could be clearer.When I twisted my thigh, there was a "hiss" throbbing pain, which proved that it was not a dream.

Father He twitched while turning the steering wheel.Fortunately, it was on the car, and there was a handbrake disc in the middle, otherwise, I might be the one who suffered from this twist.But when it comes to my daughter's good luck, the earliest lottery jackpot of 200 million was the foundation, and this time the 800 million is a surprise, but not a surprise.The pride in my heart: such a lucky girl is our daughter!
With He Xidong and Yuanyuan around, one witnessed the baby sister's luck throughout the whole process; the other heard it, but couldn't help embellishing the straightforward story with a full voice.He Wei didn't even need to speak, her father and mother knew the reason of 800 million completely.

"Okay! Hahaha! Our daughter is a lucky star!" He Mu laughed from ear to ear.

Father He also smiled, grinning from the corners of his mouth to his ears.

"...Speaking of which, I was dumbfounded at the time. The piece of wool that Brother Xu and I picked was so domineering. It didn't give us any face, let alone emerald, and the patina was not there. Weiwei is such a small stone, But they offered 800 million treasures..." He Xidong continued to play tricks to make his parents happy: "Later, I heard that people in the whole antique street bought wool that looked like vegetables, melons and fruits, which made me laugh so hard..."

Yuanyuan continued from the side: "It's not just the antique street in Kyoto. I read in the newspaper that since a few years ago, the whole stone gambling industry has become popular in the field of vegetables and fruits. Many famous jewelry companies have sent buyers to pick out rough stones in the shape of vegetables and fruits." The suppliers were all dumbfounded when they purchased the goods. According to me, maybe other fields will also be brought into a wave of fruit and vegetables..."

"No wonder!" He Mu slapped her thigh: "I went to shop for the new year's goods in the first few days of the month, and there were apple patterns posted everywhere in the mall, and I was bitten, and the surrounding area was full of people. , I don’t know what I’m grabbing for. When I came out, I heard a song, what’s ‘apples, apples, tomatoes, tomatoes, bitter melons, bitter melons’... Oh, hello, it’s also related to my daughter..." Hemu and You Rong Yan.

The three children were all happy.

"Mom, the bitten apple you mentioned is a mobile phone brand, and it has nothing to do with Vegetarian Style."

"Auntie, that song must be sung like this, right?"

Yuanyuan children's shoes hummed a few lines of the lyrics, and Hemu nodded repeatedly: "Yes, yes, yes! That's how it is!"

The three laughed together.

"Mom, this song has been around for a long time, and it has nothing to do with Veggie Style."

Seeing that the children were so happy, He Mu smiled and said, "Okay! It's because I'm ignorant."

Whatever it is, it's my daughter who has made money, and it's a lot of money.Thinking of this Hemu makes me feel refreshed.The bad thing about being robbed of business by Lin Shuigen's family temporarily lost his memory, and he almost laughed all the way home with his three children.
