Back to the Sixties: Farm, Get Wealthy & Raise the Cubs-Chapter 618: I also want to go

Chapter 618: I also want to go

In the past two years, the development of old Zhou Family wasn't only in business, but also in connections.

One of them was due to his eldest brother's obvious potential. He was promoted the year before and will get a raise this year.

This year's promotion was estimated to become a major.

How old was his eldest brother now? He was only twenty-four. Who would dare to underestimate such potential?

Second was his second brother. His second brother had a girlfriend last year. Once Eldest gets married, then it should be his turn. That girl was deeply obsessed with his second brother.

Her dad was a part of political commissar. She was a veritable young miss. However, she had no temper at all in front of his second brother. When she came over during the New Year, she was especially polite and virtuous.

Of course, his second brother had also been a guest to the other party's house. The other party was also very satisfied with his second brother. Maybe in the future, his second brother won't necessarily go into teaching and take over his father-in-law's connection. Might get into politics.

With the two promising elder brothers in front, who would dare to underestimate old Zhou Family now? Even a high positioned family like Wang Family, had to pondered before wanting to do something out of line.

Of course, that was how it was said. In fact, Wang Yuan hadn't changed much because of his huge profits in the past two years.

Although the bearing was greater than before, Wang Yuan treated Zhou Family the same as before.

Zhou Gui Lai looked at the ledger and said, "Tomorrow I will go and find my second brother-in-law to clear the account."

Lin Qing He directed at Zhou Er Ni, "How is Si Ni?"

Zhou Si Ni married Weng Guo Dong in May of '86. It wasn't until the end of last year when she got pregnant.

Of course it wasn't because she couldn't give birth. But because Zhou Si Ni wanted to attend school. So she discussed it with Weng Guo Dong and took precaution.

She finished studying last year. So, she was pregnant now.

However, her pregnancy could be compared with Lin Qing He's last one. It was really hard. Vomited so much that she couldn't eat.

Zhou Er merrily answered, "Only got morning sickness. Everything else is fine."

"From what I see, she might not be able to go to work this year. Let her properly rest and don't think about work." Lin Qing He stated.

"Si Ni said to wait until the first three months pass and it'll be better. Then she would continue to come to work." Zhou Er Ni smiled.

She had experienced it before. She didn't go to Wang Yuan's garment factory when she was pregnant. However the days of pregnancy were very boring. It was best to wait for delivery while working.

She knew Si Ni's personality. She can’t sit still. In fact, since she got married, she would work whenever she wasn't idle. Of course, she had always taken good care of the three meals a day.

Father Weng and Mother Weng didn’t need to cook for themselves. When Zhou Si Ni finished, she would get Weng Guo Dong put the food in a box and send to the clothing store. It wasn't far away.

It can be said that after Zhou Si Ni married in, Mother Weng didn’t have to cook anymore. Zhou Si Ni took it on.

Mother Weng often praised Zhou Si Ni in front of Lin Qing He. And occasionally sending clothes back to Eldest Sister-in-law and Eldest Brother.

Eldest Sister-in-law was naturally delighted. As long as her daughter had a good life with her in-laws, it was fine.

She had told Zhou Si Ni off a few times for not planning to have a baby soon. It only ended when she mentioned Mother Weng and said Mother Weng had agreed.

Lin Qing He didn’t say anything when she heard Er Ni say that. She understood Si Ni’s thoughts. Only when one have a job can you feel safe. Especially now that the wages were quite high. The wages of the workers under Lin Qing He’s hand had risen to 170. It was a very high salary level.

Weng Guo Dong’s salary wasn't low. He was 200 or so yuan. If the two work together, they earn nearly 400 a month, which was considered a high-income family.

Zhou Er Ni went back after finished talking about the business. Lin Qing He saw that it was nearly time and came to the dumpling shop for dinner.

Zhou Xuan didn't have to come back to eat. The rest including Gang Zi was here.

Hu Zi and Chen Shan Shan were married in 1986. Since then, the two of them opened their own stove. It was worth mentioning that Chen Shan Shan became pregnant not long after they got married. Their child was now over one year old.

The child was minded by Chen Shan Shan's mom. Hu Zi was hawking. He obviously worked harder after getting married. Chen Shan Shan still worked in her clothing store.

"Godmother, Third Brother." Lin Qing He and Third came to the dumpling shop to have dinner and was greeted by the godson, Jiang Geng.

Jiang Geng came over to attend university last year. He got admitted through own his own ability.

"How come you have time to come over?" Lin Qing He merrily spoke. Today was Wednesday. Jiang Geng usually come over to stay on Friday evening. And usually stayed until Sunday afternoon before returning to school.

"It's boring at school. So I ran out. I just need to caught the bus back tomorrow morning." Jiang Geng grinned.

"Then you're in luck today. I bought a big rooster this morning. We got an extra dish in the evening." Zhou Gui Lai said.

Jiang Geng jollily mentioned, "Third Brother, are you still going to the south to source tea this year? Bring me."

He had heard his third brother's bragging. He had travelled all over the country. It made him envied him. The farthest place for him was to come to the capital. And that was because he recognized his godfather and godmother. If not, it was certain that he'll never step out of Hai City.

"I'm going for business. What's more, aren't you going back to Hai City for the summer vacation. If I take you to the south, I'm afraid that a beautiful lady will scold me." Zhou Gui Lai said.

In the past two years, the relationship between the two families got closer. Zhou Gui Lai had visited Hai City at the beginning of this year to take back his dad’s shops. This year, they will open the tea business in Hai City. Those shop's location were all good, so they planned to open a tea shop.

"Why would my mom scold you? She told me to learn more from you, Third Brother." Jiang Geng responded.

"Don't deceive me. Uncle Jiang wants you to follow his path. Once you graduate, you'll enter the military academy. Eldest Brother give you a recommendation." Zhou Gui Lai spoke.

"I don't want to do that." Jiang Geng sighed.

"Didn't Eldest Brother say that you are quite suitable for it last time? You want to punish the evil and promote the good? I think it's suitable for you." Zhou Gui Lai smilingly pointed out.

"It's a good idea to take Xiao Geng out to explore," Lin Qing He remarked.

"I want to go too." Little Mi Mi hugged her third brother's leg and declared.

Though she was two and half, her expressive ability was particularly strong. She knew what she wanted and what she didn't.

"Alright. As long as Dad agrees, I can take you. Go ask Dad." Zhou Gui Lai laughed.

Mi Mi went over to pester her dad. Zhou Qing Bai ordered: "Third, come and cook."

He picked up his little girl.

"Xiao Geng, you go." Zhou Gui Lai said.

"I'll make dumplings." Jiang Geng insisted. He was scared of burning things.

So Zhou Gui Lai cooked. Lin Qing He washed her hands and joined in dumplings making. She asked her godson about his studies. Jiang Geng told everything.
