"Go and take a look. I can't help much." Li He hung up and drove home.
When Shou Shan heard the news of Old Man Zhu's death, he put the cigarette he had quit smoking back into his mouth. He put away his sloppy demeanor and lamented, "It's almost my turn."
A wave of sadness spread through the room.
Zhou Ping snatched the cigarette from his hand and said, "You're still smoking."
Shou Shan shook his head and insisted on lighting another cigarette. "What's the point of living for another day or two?"
"Then go home and have a good rest. Stop sighing here." Zhou Ping did not hold back when she scolded her own father.
Shou Shan said, "I still have to tell you what I have to tell you in advance."
Zhou Ping smiled and said, "You could have told me any other time. Why did you have to pick now? I don't have that much time to chit-chat with you."
She continued to bury her head in the account book.
The more she went along with her father's words, the more uncomfortable she felt. She could only retort.
Shou Shan did not care about his daughter's words and continued, "I have to say it now. Who knows if I'll die like Old Man Zhu without saying a word? When that happens, I won't have the chance to explain even if I wanted to. I'll say this first. Your man must not be allowed to have any money in the future. Don't talk about money, he can't even give him power. Do you remember what I said? "
Zhou Ping was annoyed. "Dad, he doesn't even know how to read. He can't be any more honest. Is there any point in guarding against him like this? People say that a son-in-law is half a son. Moreover, how can you not know how he treats you? Even your own son isn't as filial as him. When you were in the hospital, he was the one who stayed by your bed every day and helped you change your clothes. He will listen to whatever you say and has always been respectful to you. "
People said that husband and wife were one. Naturally, she could not accept others mocking her man, even if it was her own father.
Shou Shan glared at her. "Listen to what I said first. No matter how close he is, he's not as close as you. You're my daughter. I'm saying this for your own good. How could I harm you? I'll admit that he doesn't have any bad intentions, and I'll also believe that he's honest. That's because he's a coward, he's incapable. My silly daughter, you have to understand that all men in this world are the same. Once they have money, they will want power. Once they have power, they will not be able to hold it back. The more honest a person is, the faster they will change. They will not be able to resist temptation and greed. Believe it or not, if I were a little younger, you would have five or six stepmothers! "
In order to prove that men were not good things, he buried himself in it.
Zhou Ping blushed and said, "Is he as bad as you say? If he's really like what you said, I'll accept my fate. But why do you want me to guard against him? "
Shou Shan became anxious when his daughter refused to listen to his advice. "Why do you ignore my words? He was doing fine at the bottom of the mountain. Why did you have to force him up the mountain? What could you do to him? Remember, if I kick you, you're the husband and wife's property. If he has any ulterior motives in the future, not only will you ruin yourself, but you'll also ruin my family business. Li He will also be implicated. "
The shop had attracted many young and beautiful waitresses. Seeing his son-in-law blush in front of these young ladies, Shou Shan was infuriated. As a man in his forties, how could he blush in front of a young lady who was not much older than his daughter?
Zhou Ping rolled her eyes. "Is it as exaggerated as you say?"
"Exaggerated? I've eaten more salt than you've eaten rice. What do you know! "
Zhou Ping teased, "That's because you have a heavy mouth."
"Don't talk nonsense. Listen to me. Your father, I, have seen many honest people. Your father was framed by an honest person and went to prison for reform! I saw that he was honest and sincere. I pitied him. I paid for his parents' coffins! But what happened? Nothing good came out of it. "
Zhou Ping said, "Dad, the environment changed quickly in the past. Can it be the same as now?"
"This is all I have to say. If you don't listen, I suggest that Li He be replaced. You should go home and work on your land. You can just get a bonus every year." Shou Shan's face darkened. This was the first time he said such serious words to his daughter.
Her father's expression scared Zhou Ping. She was afraid that the old man would be muddle-headed. She could only say, "Then continue. I'm listening."
Shou Shan then said seriously, "When the children grow up, they still have to be sent overseas."
Zhou Ping smiled. "Dad, I can keep an eye on them. The two children are still immature. They're already wild when they're by my side. If they go out, they'll be even more unwilling to learn. “
"That Lil 'Wu from the Li family is naughty, right? Didn't he still send them out? Now there are still three more to be sent out! Just follow the Li family! The two of them are still university students. Even the Li family doesn't dare to say that they can discipline their children well. You don't know much and you dare to say that you can? "
Shou Shan did not care about his daughter's expression and continued to poke at her face.
Zhou Ping said, "You know that I don't know much. How would I know where to send them!"
Shou Shan said, "Are you mute? Don't you know how to ask Li He? That Li Aijun isn't stupid. He knows that he'll follow Li He's family and send his sister overseas. Look at that stupid Ding Shiping. He's already planning to send the children overseas. Only you're still pretending that you don't know. "
"Alright, alright. I'll listen to you." Her father was right, but it was difficult for Zhou Ping to carry it out.
Shou Shan did not care about his daughter rolling her eyes at him. He lit another cigarette grandly and blew out a big smoke ring. "Chen Dadi is an honest person. He's the most trustworthy person. You have to treat him better in the future."
Zhou Ping deliberately asked, "Didn't you say that honest people can't be trusted? Now you've changed again. "
Shou Shan said angrily, "Do you really not understand or are you pretending not to understand? Some people are born stupid because they're not smart. Your man is like that. He's the easiest to be bewitched. His personality is unstable and he changes at a whim. Then there's another kind of honest person like Chen Dadi. He has a firm personality. He has faith in his bones and he won't regret it even if you beat him to death. If your man is half as good as him, I'd be happy even if I died! "
He criticized his son-in-law once again without holding back.
"If your son-in-law heard this, he'd be furious." Zhou Ping's face alternated between red and white.
Shou Shan said disdainfully, "Do I live just to please him? Also, Xiao Gu isn't bad. His bad point is that he's too smart. He's too bold and has a big heart. Sooner or later, he won't be tamed. If he wants to go solo in the future, you'll be happy to do him a favor. There's no need to be evil. However, you have to give him a request. He's not allowed to do any F&B business in Binhai for three years. "
Zhou Ping nodded. "You also know that he has a big heart. Will he be willing?"
Shou Shan snorted. "He's a smart person. He'll agree. Otherwise, I'll strangle him to death. Otherwise, he'll be a scourge. Don't think that I don't know what he did to the accounts. I just saw that he's a talent and has contributed a lot. I can't be bothered to argue with him. If he really doesn't know what's good for him, I'll deal with him according to the law. "
Zhou Ping's heart turned cold. "Dad, isn't this too much?"
Shou Shan said, "There are no fathers and sons in the business world. What's more, he's an outsider. If you soften today, he'll drink your blood and eat your flesh tomorrow. Don't be soft-hearted. "
"I know what I'm doing when the time comes." Zhou Ping didn't quite approve of Shou Shan's method.
Shou Shan took a sip of tea and said, "Pan Song, Su Ming, Jiang Wei, and that girl Fu Xia. None of them are good people. You must guard against them in the future. Otherwise, they'll still eat you up."
