After sending off Ma Yun and the others, Li Dong could not stay idle.
In the afternoon, he had to meet with the CEOs of Wumart again.
Tomorrow, he had to attend the airline's inaugural flight ceremony. After the inaugural flight, he had to discuss with the companies that joined the retail industry association.
The details could be left to Yuan Chengdao and the others, but he had to make the final decision.
Plus, WeChat was about to be launched, he had to acquire a fund company, prepare to launch a currency fund, and start to integrate with Gome …
Plus, Weibo's C round of financing was on the agenda, and he even had to prepare to go public.
And most importantly, he had to get married in June.
One by one, Li Dong's schedule was packed to the brim.
Even so, he had cut out a lot of unnecessary arrangements.
Participation in some conferences, interview invitations, speech arrangements …
Li Dong would reject these jobs that were not important at the moment. If he couldn't, he would put them off.
…
In the afternoon, he talked with the people in charge of Wumart for the whole afternoon.
At night, Li Dong was not in the mood to entertain these people, so he left it to Yuan Chengdao and Chen Lang to handle.
Originally, he thought he could rest for a while at home, but as soon as he entered the house, Li Dong saw Shen Qian chatting with Shen Xuehua in the yard.
Li Dong had no idea that Shen Xuehua was coming to Pingchuan.
When he saw her, Li Dong reacted and quickly smiled, "Auntie, why didn't you call me first? I should have gone to pick you up."
Shen Xuehua snorted and said, "There's no need for pleasantries. Do you still have time to pick me up? Even if Qianqian didn't tell me, I know you've been busy for the past few days. "
The impact of the things Li Dong said at the annual meeting on the 14th would not be over so easily.
For the past few days, Li Dong could be considered lazy if he could go home to rest.
Out of habit, Shen Xuehua mocked her before continuing, "I'll be coming to Qianqian to pick me up. Also, I'll be staying a little longer this time. You can't help with the wedding, but you can't let Qianqian work alone. I'll help arrange it. "
Before Li Dong could say anything, Shen Qian interrupted with a smile, "Auntie Cao and Uncle Li are also helping to arrange it. Mom, these are all trivial matters. There's no need to trouble you."
Shen Xuehua glanced at her daughter. A married daughter was like spilled water.
These words were not wrong at all!
She wasn't even married yet, but she was already trying to protect her husband's family's reputation.
To be honest, Li Chengyuan and Cao Fang could arrange a wedding for an ordinary person, but could they arrange Li Dong's wedding?
As for the guests, some guests would be disrespectful if they didn't personally make a call.
Li Chengyuan and Cao Fang didn't have the confidence to talk to them. If Li Dong didn't do it, Shen Qian would have to do it herself. Shen Xuehua was different. If she did it herself, it would be more effective than Shen Qian.
However, her daughter would have to get married eventually. She might have to stay in Pingchuan in the future.
It didn't mean much to Shen Xuehua to embarrass Li Dong.
With her daughter giving her a way out, Shen Xuehua said, "Then let Li Dong's parents handle the internal affairs, while we handle the external affairs. It'll be easier with more people. We've only been in Pingchuan for a few days, but look, we're already busy."
Li Dong smiled and didn't care too much about it. He replied, "Then I'll have to trouble Auntie. Originally, I was going to prepare it myself. However, there have been many problems with the company these days, and I can't get away. Before you came, I even asked Qianqian if I should trouble you to come to Jiangbei to help. Now that you're here, it's perfect. I just don't know if Uncle Du will call to rush me. "
Shen Xuehua glanced at him. This little bastard is still the same as ever. He even dares to make fun of me!
She couldn't be bothered to argue with him. Shen Xuehua thought for a moment before saying, "Your Uncle Du is also busy during this period of time. He's not as relaxed as you are. You've left, but he won't stop so easily. If you don't get married, I'm afraid he won't even have time to go home. "
Li Dong could understand this. At this time, it was inevitable that Old Dolby Li Dong would be busy.
As Shen Xuehua spoke, she couldn't help but sigh when she saw that Li Dong didn't say anything. "All of you are so busy that you can't even see each other. When the whole family is together, I'm afraid you don't see each other as much as outsiders. There's no end to things. When it's time to rest, you should rest for a period of time. Especially you. You're still young. Take some time to accompany Qianqian. "
Shen Qian smiled and said, "Mom, you should work harder when you're young. Otherwise, you'll be like Dad, so busy that you can't even go home when you're old. Li Dong and I have been busy for the past few years. There's still a long way to go. "
Shen Xuehua mumbled a few words, and the three of them chatted in the courtyard for a while.
Shen Xuehua had already figured out on the way that she didn't persuade Li Dong to leave.
Li Dong had said that he would leave in front of tens of thousands of employees and countless video viewers at the annual meeting. It was obvious that it was already a done deal.
Not to mention her persuasion, even Du Anmin's persuasion wouldn't have any effect. There was no need to waste his saliva.
…
In the evening, after dinner and watching TV for a while, Shen Xuehua and Shen Qian went upstairs together.
As for Li Dong, it was obvious that he made his own arrangements tonight.
The mother and daughter talked about something private, and it had nothing to do with Li Dong.
…
In the bedroom.
Shen Qian was making the bed, but Shen Xuehua looked around her.
Just when Shen Qian was a little confused, Shen Xuehua slightly frowned and said, "Are you pregnant?"
"Ah?"
Shen Xuehua frowned and said, "What? Li Dong is an idiot and has no experience. Your mother is not an idiot. At night, you don't eat at all, and you don't have any appetite. You're a little nauseous. How long has it been? "
Shen Qian was a little embarrassed. She looked out and whispered, "I went to check two days ago. The doctor said that I'm about six weeks pregnant."
"Six weeks!"
Shen Xuehua was a little surprised and said, "So you were pregnant before the Spring Festival?"
"Yes, it should be when I went to Hong Kong for a few days."
"Didn't you tell Li Dong?"
Shen Qian shook her head and said, "He has too many things to do during this period. Besides, it's still early for me. I'll keep it a secret for the time being. I'll tell him when he's done with his work. "
"Nonsense!"
Shen Xuehua angrily rebuked, "How can you hide this kind of thing from him? Since you're pregnant, you have to tell him immediately! It's the most dangerous when you're just pregnant, especially in the first three months. You don't know anything, so you act recklessly. Let me ask you, have you slept with him during this period? "
"Mom …"
Shen Xuehua stared at her and said, "Do you know how old you are? You're 31 years old, but you're 32 years old! It's more dangerous for you to be pregnant at your age. You just let him do whatever he wants and spoil him. Who will be responsible if something happens? At that time, it'll be too late for you to regret it! Tell him about this as soon as possible, and … "
As she spoke, Shen Xuehua suddenly paused and pinched her fingers. After a while, she said, "The wedding will be held on June 16. It's only February 15 now. There are still four months left. In addition to the six weeks now … "
Shen Xuehua's face changed slightly and she said, "It's already 23 weeks. Your belly will be big at that time!"
When Shen Qian heard this, she thought for a moment and said, "Why don't we postpone the wedding for a while and wait until you give birth …"
"Don't talk nonsense! The date has been set, and some relatives have been informed. How can we change the date now? "
Shen Xuehua immediately rejected it and then said, "It's okay to move it forward a little. Why don't we change it to May? But it'll be obvious then … "
Shen Xuehua had a headache. Young people nowadays didn't care much about these things. It was normal to get married while pregnant.
But who was Shen Qian? She was Du Anmin's daughter, Shen Xuehua's daughter, and she was marrying Li Dong.
According to Li Dong's arrangements, this wedding was obviously not just a private meal.
When that time came, the outside world would definitely be paying attention.
If Shen Qian attended the wedding with a pregnant belly, it wouldn't be a good influence. The younger generation didn't care, but some of the older generation were more old-fashioned and might not be able to accept it.
And among Du Anmin's colleagues and friends, as well as Shen Xuehua's relatives and friends, almost none of them were younger than 50 years old.
Shen Xuehua's head hurt for a while, and she said irritably, "Forget it, I don't care about this.
I'll talk to Li Dong about this and see what he's going to do.
Since it can't be postponed, why don't we do it before the pregnancy?
Also, you're already six weeks old, and there's no one by your side. What does Li Dong do!?
If anything happens, your dad and I will fight him to the death!
You darn girl, you actually hid such a thing from me and your dad. Li Dong is also an idiot. Even if he didn't experience it, he could tell if he paid a little attention.
His parents don't know about this, right? "
Shen Qian hurriedly said, "Mom, don't blame him. I wasn't too sure myself, and there weren't any signs of it before. It was only a few days ago that I realized something was amiss. I went to the hospital for a checkup before I found out. Even I don't know, so what would a man like him know? I didn't tell Auntie Cao either. They don't live with us, so they don't know about this. "
Shen Xuehua couldn't be bothered to complain about her daughter's defense, so she walked out.
When Shen Qian saw this, she hurriedly pulled her mother back and said, "Mom, what are you doing?"
"What do you think?" Shen Xuehua rolled her eyes and said, "Go find Li Dong. If we don't explain it to him clearly, he's a young man, and he doesn't know how to control himself. He also does things carelessly.
If he bumps into something, he'll regret it in the end.
Also, if you're pregnant, the house will be small.
There are two children here, and the children don't know how to control themselves. What if they bump into you?
Isn't the renovation over there still not done?
Don't worry about the renovation. Talk to Li Dong and see if the two of you can move to Billow Mountain Villa for a while.
Let the nanny take care of the two children first. When you settle down, we'll see … "
"Mom, it's not as exaggerated as you say." Shen Qian said with a smile, "How long has it been? I'm not made of glass.
Other people are seven or eight months pregnant and are still working, but I don't see them doing anything.
Xiaoyu and Stone are also very obedient, so it's fine.
Let's not talk about Li Dong for the time being. At least wait for him to deal with the matters on hand, then I'll find a chance to tell him.
He's very busy now. He hasn't stopped since the beginning of the year.
If I distract him at this time, the company will be in chaos. "
"You!"
Shen Xuehua complained helplessly. She pulled her daughter to sit down by the bed and thought for a while before saying, "But I can't let you live in such a muddle.
His villa in Billow Mountain Villa is still empty, right?
The environment there is better than here, and life is more convenient.
Let's do it this way. I'll ask you to accompany me to relax and live there for two months.
After three months, when the fetus is stable, I won't care about you.
Whether you say it or not, he will know about it sooner or later. "
As she spoke, Shen Xuehua said with some suspicion, "Qianqian, mom is asking you. You tell mom honestly. You didn't tell him because he doesn't want this child? "
Shen Qian smiled and shook her head, "No, he said he wanted to have one long ago. The child hasn't even appeared yet, and he wants to retire. In the future, the family business will be handed over to the child … "
"Can men's words be taken seriously?"
Shen Xuehua didn't deny it. She snorted and said, "That's just what they say. Don't forget, how old is Li Dong? He's only 24 this year! He's so young, and he wants a child now? Even if he reaches 30, he won't be in a hurry. "
"Mom, he's different. Really, he likes children very much. Otherwise, he wouldn't have adopted Xiaoyu and Shitou. Hsu Shengzhe, his cousin, and a few friends all have children, and he has always been envious. Look at him, he has adopted his godson and goddaughter. If he didn't like children, he wouldn't be like this. "
Shen Xuehua was still not very convinced, but now that things had come to this, even if Li Dong didn't want this child, the Du family and the Shen family had to have it!
Shen Qian wasn't young anymore. In a few years, she would really become an elderly woman.
Du Anmin and his wife only had one daughter, Shen Qian. Old Du was already in his early 60's. If he didn't have a grandson soon, he would have to wait until god knows when.
The mother and daughter chatted for a while, and Shen Xuehua reminded them again and again.
In the end, she was still worried and called Beijing. She didn't know who she contacted, but she hung up the phone and said, "I've asked someone to get a few obstetrics specialists and medical professionals to come over. Be careful. I'll stay in Pingchuan for two months …"
Seeing that her mother was worried, Shen Qian felt a little helpless. There was no need to be like this, right?
But it clearly didn't make sense to say this to Shen Xuehua at this time.
Shen Qian couldn't be bothered to say it. She was about to go to bed when she heard Shen Xuehua mumble, "I almost forgot. I haven't told your dad about this. No, I have to tell him. "
Seeing her mother pick up the phone again, Shen Qian had no choice but to say, "Mom, Dad has been busy recently. Let's wait a little longer. It's only six weeks now. You've already arranged everything. Telling Dad will only distract him. There's no other use, don't you think? "
Shen Xuehua said disapprovingly, "He's already in his 60s. What's the point of fighting? It's good that he has the time to take care of his grandson."
Although she said that, when she thought of how busy Old Du was recently, Shen Xuehua put down the phone and decided to talk about it later.
