"A man should be able to support both heaven and earth. That's what Second Grandpa said." He Zhou's worldview was refreshed by his First Uncle.
"Your Second Grandpa is gone. What's there to talk about?" He Manjun wiped his snot with the hem of his shirt. "Luck is a momentary thing. If you don't seize it, it'll be gone suddenly. You won't have a good life."
"Yes." He Zhou felt that his last words made some sense. Luck was fleeting. This was something that his father had patiently explained in his notebook many times. In short, opportunities were hidden in the development trend of the great era. One had to go with the flow to seize the opportunity.
He Manjun patted the mud off his butt and stood up. He lit another cigarette and waved his hand. "Do your best. If you do well, help your First Uncle out."
"First Uncle, you must be joking."
He Zhou followed behind him. He thought that they were going home together, but unexpectedly, He Manjun went in the other direction when they reached a fork in the field.
He hurriedly shouted, "First Uncle, let's go home. Where are you going?"
"Do I still have a home?" He Manjun turned back and asked.
He Zhou said, "Second Granny is waiting for you."
"Waiting for me for what? To embarrass her? " He Manjun threw the cigarette butt on the ground. "Go home. With my sister around, your Second Granny won't have to worry about no one taking care of her."
With that, he left without looking back.
"First Uncle!"
He Zhou shouted at the top of his lungs as he watched He Manjun's figure gradually disappear into the distance.
He Laoxi wasn't too surprised by He Manjun's departure.
He Laoxi said lightly, "He's afraid of being laughed at. He suddenly wants to save face."
Zhao Di patted He Manrong's shoulder. "Thank you for your hard work in the future."
There was an old lady at home. With He Manjun gone, the responsibility of taking care of the old lady naturally fell to He Manrong.
He Manrong smiled. "I've always been alone at home. He never cared about it. It's no different from before. I want to bring Ah Niang to my home. "
Ever since her father fell ill, she had been taking care of him at home. She had never counted on her brother.
Now that her father was gone, she couldn't stay at her mother's house all the time. She was thinking of bringing her mother to her side to take care of her.
He Laoxi smiled and said to his sister-in-law, "It's good to go to our daughter's house. You don't have to worry about anything in the future. You don't have to worry about washing clothes and cooking."
He knew his sister-in-law the best. She was shrewd, liked to take advantage of others, and was famous for being petty. Otherwise, He Manjun would not have been spoiled by her family.
However, He Weibao's wife's words surprised everyone. She was wiping the pot. She threw the rag away and said to her daughter, "I'm not your father. I can't go there. I can't move, and I can't leave.
You're so big, I can't move you. I can't even move you. Otherwise, I wouldn't have asked you to come back. Alright, now that your old man is already in the grave, keeping you at home would be a joke.
Just do what you need to do and don't meddle in my business. "
He Manrong smiled awkwardly and said, "Mother, if you come with us, everything will be convenient. I won't feel at ease leaving you alone at home."
"I won't starve to death." He Weibao's wife said stubbornly, "I can eat and drink alone at home. I don't have the time to care about you guys."
He Manrong said, "No one cares about you. Your son-in-law is very filial to you."
"Do what you want. Don't worry about it." It was rare for Zhao Chunfang to stand on the same side as her sister-in-law. The two of them often quarreled, but at this moment, she actually felt a little pity for them.
Her man was gone, and her son was disappointing. She was left with a lonely old lady. How was she going to live in the future?
"Yeah, they all think I'm useless." He Weibao's wife smacked her lips and continued with her work.
The funeral was over, but the house was still a mess. The cleaning had to be done again.
He Manrong returned to her in-laws' house, leaving the old lady alone at home. He Zhou couldn't bear to leave her alone, so he helped her clean up.
"Your uncle really didn't say anything when he left?" The old lady brought up the same topic again.
"Second Granny, he didn't say anything. He just said that he was ashamed to come back." He Zhou looked at Second Granny's face and couldn't bear it anymore, so he comforted her, "Don't worry. He's an adult. He'll be fine."
He liked Second Granny more than his own maternal grandmother. Although Second Granny was a "bad person" in Zhao Chunfang's eyes, it didn't stop him from liking her.
Second Grandma and Blood Grandma both had an obvious characteristic, and that was that they were 'unreasonable'. They were famous for being unreasonable, and were known for being unreasonable.
This meant that the two of them would always spoil their children irrationally.
However, the difference between the two of them was that his maternal grandmother only spoiled He Yao, while Second Granny spoiled all the children. When he was young, he would always go to Second Granny's place when he was wronged by his mother and was always coaxed by her.
He Weibao and his wife treated him well from the bottom of their hearts.
The old lady sighed and said, "Your Second Grandpa is right. You'll be the only one who'll be successful in the future. Good grandson, don't learn from those two dogs."
He Zhou said, "I'll do my best."
As for those two dogs, he didn't even have to guess to know who they were talking about.
The old lady grinned and said, "Find a good girl and have a baby. I'll take care of it for you."
"Okay, I'll listen to you," He Zhou replied with a smile and didn't refuse. "I'll bring you over to take care of the child for me."
From the bottom of his heart, he didn't want his mother to retire early and live a boring life. As for his maternal grandmother taking care of the child for him, that was impossible.
Right now, the person who was most likely to take care of the child for him was this Second Granny.
"Yes." The old lady's wrinkles smoothed out as she smiled.
After the snow stopped, the sun came out.
A small black car entered the village, but it didn't attract much attention from the people of Li Village. As a famous rich village, there were too many cars coming and going every day.
The car stopped in front of the Li Village's house.
Li He was squatting at the door, basking in the sun. When he saw Qi Hua get out of the car, he smiled and asked, "You rushed over from home?"
Qi Hua smiled and said, "Yes, I came over to pay my New Year's greetings."
He had already stepped down from his secretary position and was officially the deputy director of Zhong Zai Group. Xiao Qi from back then had also become Old Qi.
He Fang brought out a chair and said, "Qi Hua, take a seat. I'll make you a cup of tea later."
"Sister-in-law, don't be in such a hurry." Qi Hua saw that He Fang was already washing the cups. He had sat down, but he quickly stood up and went over to take the cup for himself. He found some tea leaves and made tea.
Li He asked, "Nothing major recently."
Qi Hua said, "Gu Gou's management didn't listen to your suggestion and resolutely took measures to withdraw from the China market."
