Chronicles of the Modern Empress Dowager

When Li Jianbo hurried back home, the food was ready.

Li Jianbo was very sorry when he saw his brother.

"Originally, I said I would come back earlier, but I still added a few shifts, making the big brother wait a long time."

Li Jianping patted Jianbo on the shoulder and said, "You are polite to my family. I come here as if I were at home. I don't know if you are busy with work. Besides, Wei Wei is not at home."

Li Jianbo smiled: "Brother, sit down for a while." He went back to the room to put his bag, but the phone rang suddenly.

Here Li Wei catches up with the food.

"What about the second brother?"

"Go in."

Li Wei prepared the meal, then went to fetch a bottle of red wine from the second brother's collection, and took out two goblets.

Li Jianbo came out after ten minutes.

"Second brother will leave again later?"

"I'm not leaving, my eldest brother will come here once, I have to accompany my eldest brother." Li Jianbo opened the bottle, poured the two glasses in front of him, and then turned to look at his sister.

"Will Weiwei come in a small amount?"

Li Wei waved his hand and said, "No. You guys have a drink. I have already eaten it. I will go back to the house to practice listening."

All my family members are not so particular.

Li Jianbo greeted his brother to eat food and drink.

Li Jianping and Li Jianbo said: "That Jiao Yang has news."

Li Jianbo heard Li Wei mention the fact that his elder brother's investment was defrauded, and hurriedly asked: "Can he still get the money?"

Li Jianping smiled bitterly: "How could it be possible? I heard that I was imprisoned for committing a crime in Guangzhou, and I am afraid that none of the previous cases will not return in seven or eight years. Even if he comes back, the money will not be repaid. Go ahead."

"How much loan do you owe the bank?"

Li Jianping took a sip of wine, praised a good drink, and then said: "Not much, only a loan of 50,000 yuan. This loan is not a big deal, but I still want to continue to open the previous hot pot restaurant. That's right. , You didn’t know that our family used to open a hot pot restaurant, the business was very hot at the beginning. There are several hot pot restaurants in Wuxian, but our family’s taste is unique, thanks to our mother’s good craftsmanship."

"Should I use all the storefronts at home to open a shop?"

Li Jianping nodded.

"Doing catering is more tiring than others, besides, my mother is now older, and her energy is definitely not as good as before. What about the hotel business if you come to open a shop again?"

Li Jianping sighed: "Yeah, at this moment I wish I had the avatar of Monkey King. Would you like to come back and help me?"

Li Jianbo smiled and said, "Big brother, isn't this embarrassing."

"Hey, I'm also joking with you. Of course your serious work here is more important. I told my parents about my ideas, and they didn't support me, saying that it would be better to rent the shop to others without bothering."

After careful consideration, Li Jianbo said, "I think my parents are right. Rather than blooming more, we might as well be more diligent. Neither Weiwei nor I have the time to help the family. My parents are also old and can't help much. The eldest brother now has a family, and naturally has more concerns. There will be development in the future. It is better to take the opportunity to stock up some land, and the land price will skyrocket in the future. With the big brother, we can build a hotel whatever we want. Then we will It can also integrate leisure, health, catering and entertainment."

"The price of land has risen, and even if I want to get it, I don't have that ability anymore."

Li Jianbo thought about it carefully: "I'll help Big Brother."

"No, no, you just returned to China not long ago, and you earned some dead wages. How much money do you have."

Li Jianbo smiled and said: "Since I can open this mouth, it is within the range of natural ability. Let's get the ground first, and then talk about other things in the next step, step by step."

Li Jianping listened to the enthusiasm, he wanted to do something big, but he suffered from the lack of that capital, and nowhere else. Jianbo is really a support by his side.

"Even if it is the land you bought, I will help you manage it in the future."

"Mine is not at home." Money is just a number to Li Jianbo. He can foresee the future, and it is not difficult to make money. What he values ​​more is the former home, which has given him warmth and affection.

After more than an hour passed, Li Wei walked out of the room and saw that the two brothers were still enjoying their drinks. Li Wei stepped forward and asked, "The food is already cold, do you want to warm it up again."

Li Jianbo looked at Li Wei tenderly, smiled and shook his head: "No, will we bother you?"

"It's okay." Li Wei saw that there were some leftovers and said to prepare two more dishes, but the brothers refused. The two drank the wine in the glass and did not continue.

"Did the two brothers negotiate another business?"

Li Jianping did not hesitate to praise: "Jianbo deserves to be outside for ten years, and his vision is indeed high. If there is a saying, how do you say it, listen to you, and I should read ten years."

At this time, Li Wei and Li Jianbo said in unison: "This is called'Listening to the monarch is better than reading ten years'." The degree of understanding between the two made them laugh.

After laughing, the tenderness in Li Jianbo's eyes couldn't be hidden, and it all fell into Li Jianping's eyes.

"Jianbo, your wine seems to be a little overwhelming. Let's go for a walk and blow the hair."

Isn't it enough for them to talk for an hour? Li Wei thought to himself,

The brothers went out. This villa is located halfway up the mountain. Looking into the distance from here, you can get the night view of most of the city.

"It's worthy of being a provincial city. It's a little more prosperous than Huiliang. This night scene is also beautiful."

Li Jianbo was a bit disapproving: "It's just some optical pollution, what's so beautiful. The most beautiful night scene in my heart is when I was lying on a haystack in the summer when I was a child and looking up at the stars. There were so many stars in the night sky, my brothers. Just counted foolishly, and Wei Wei made trouble on the side. You even caught mice to scare her."

Li Jianping remembered: "It seems that there was one time that Wei Wei was very scared. I was beaten by my mother for this. You have been very protective of Wei Wei since then."

"Well, after all, there is such a little girl in the family. Naturally, we have to give up when we are brothers."

Li Jianping called Jianbo out because he wanted to talk to him about his sister. Now that it happened to be on this topic, he didn't have any worries. He further said: "When did you fall in love with our sister?"

Li Jianbo felt very guilty at this time, as if the child who had done something wrong was caught by the parent. He asked anxiously, "Big brother, how can you... guess?"

"You two have always been in the same place since before and didn't take me to play. It shouldn't be the affection that breeds at that time. After all, you didn't know your life experience at that time. Was it the original sibling relationship after Weiwei entered high school Has the taste changed?"

Li Jianbo denied: "No, Brother guessed wrong."

"When is then?"

Li Jianbo said: "It was when I came back from the United States that I gradually realized that the situation was a little different."

Li Jianping said in his heart, Jianbo, he was really an upright person, and he recognized it so quickly.
