Chapter 470 A brief reunion

Another advantage of holding a wedding in Songjianghe is that no one will make a fuss about the wedding.

Sheng Xian and Sheng Xikang's classmates, those gangsters, all took the commuter bus back in the afternoon.

After dinner, all the relatives of the Sheng family went back to the new house to sit for a while, chatting and laughing for a while, and then they all left, leaving the two young couples to spend their bridal night.

The wedding ended successfully, and everyone was relieved.

Sheng Xiping's house was left to two newlyweds, who would definitely have to find another place to live.

It was originally discussed that Sheng Liancheng and his wife would take their daughter and son to live in the corner building, while Zhou Qinglan and Aunt Li would take their four children to live on the other side of Zhou Mingyuan.

It was rare for Sheng Liancheng and his wife to see relatives in their hometown. They were too busy with wedding matters these past two days to have a good conversation.

Now that the wedding is over, why not take advantage of the opportunity to chat together?

So Sheng Xiping booked a room at the Songlin Hotel and let Sheng Liancheng and Zhang Shuzhen stay there and chat with them for as long as they wanted.

Sheng Xiping and his brothers and sisters lived in the corner building.

Sheng Xiping was very tired from working on the wedding these days, and he drank a lot at noon. Sheng Xiping went upstairs, ignored everything, and fell asleep.

Sheng Xitai was about to take the college entrance examination. Although he was very tired today, he still insisted on reading for a while before taking a rest.

Over at the hotel, brothers Sheng Lianjie and Sheng Liancheng lived in the same room. The two brothers couldn't sleep at night, so they drank tea and chatted in the room.

"Brother, how big is Xiping's business? How much money did he make?

I'm a girl, I'm scared to death when I look at the splendid scene of this wedding.

If all such old people are arranged to live in a hotel, they will have to pay a lot of money for a day, right?

The banquet is also held in the hotel. I secretly inquired today and found out that this table is quite expensive.

Also, when we picked up the bride today, the car that took the lead belonged to our Xiping family? Oh my god, how much does this cost in total? "

Sheng Lianjie held it in for a whole day, but because all the guests were there, he never asked.

Now they were the only two brothers left, and Sheng Lianjie opened his mouth to ask what happened.

"I see that many of the people here today are leading cadres, and it seems that some of them are quite young.

The county secretaries are here, as well as the provincial officials? How did Xiping know these people? "Sheng Lianjie scratched his head curiously.

When the second brother and his family went back last year, they saw that Sheng Xiping was doing well now, but they never expected that he was doing so well.

There is a happy event at home, and even the county secretary is alerted. I dare not think of it.

Sheng Lianjie was the secretary of the commune, and the fifth son of the Sheng family worked in the municipal party committee, but they had not gotten to this point, so he couldn't figure out how Sheng Xiping did it?

"That guy from the province has a long story.

Xiping picked up a child from the provincial capital and we raised it for more than a year. His parents came to find him, and we got to know each other. The two families became relatives.

I don't know much about those people in the county. I just heard Xiping say that they had dinner together when they were in Yangcheng, so they know each other, right?

Maybe it's because of this that people come over to have a wedding drink and support me. "Sheng Liancheng didn't mention his son's investment in building a factory and only said vaguely.

"Ah? You can't, right? Just because we have met and had dinner before, people come to support us? The leaders of the county are all busy."

Sheng Lianjie obviously didn't believe his brother's words. After all, he had been a commune secretary for many years and knew a little bit about the twists and turns of officialdom.

Without certain interests, the county magistrate and secretary can just come to your house for a wedding banquet? Isn't that a joke?

Sheng Liancheng shook his head, "I really don't know about this matter. In the past few years, the boss has been out and about and suffered a lot. He should have made some money.

This time, the marriage of the second and third children was all arranged by the boss, so we didn’t have to worry about it.

I'm already this old, so I can't help my children, and I can't pry around. "Sheng Liancheng is well versed in the essence of Tai Chi, avoiding the important and taking the easy.

Sheng Lianjie also heard it, and the second brother didn't want to say more.

"Brother, I have no other meaning in asking about this. If Xiping has any money-making ideas in the future, he will also think about his hometown.

You also know that our hometown is poor, with little land and a large population, so life is difficult. I work hard all year round and can't make much money.

Many people in the village came to the Northeast to pursue their careers. Xi Zheng and Xi Hong also had this idea, so I suppressed it. "

When Sheng Lianjie said this, he couldn't help but sigh. Who wants to beg for help in a humble manner? Aren't they all forced into helplessness?

"My family, Xiwen and Xiwu, are not good at school. They just graduated from junior high school. They have no way to recruit workers. I plan to arrange for them to serve as soldiers."

Sheng Liancheng was silent for a long time, and finally sighed, "Lao San, since you said so, I will ask Xiping later to see if he has any ideas."

Sheng Liancheng was also quite helpless. These were his brothers from the same mother-in-law, and those few were his nephews. Their relatives were having a hard time, could he really just watch and ignore them?

But no matter what, he had no say in the matter. He could only tell his son and see what he said.

"Hey, hey, brother, just talk to Xiping, I'm not borrowing money, and I don't want anything from him.

My eldest nephew is very smart and has ways to make money. I would like to ask him to help me think of any money-making jobs in my hometown and give him some advice. "

Sheng Liancheng had observed carefully in the past two days and heard a lot. He knew that his eldest nephew seemed to be in the import and export business and helped many places sell local specialties and the like.

Sheng Lianjie's original intention was to hook up with Sheng Xiping and ask Sheng Xiping to help him see if there was anything in his hometown that could make money.

Relying on help from others can only take care of things for a while, but you must have the ability to make money yourself, so that you can take care of things for a lifetime.

After all, Sheng Lianjie is the secretary of the commune. After working for these years, don’t you understand this?

The two brothers chatted for half the night, and they didn't know when they fell asleep.

Early the next morning, everyone got up and had breakfast, and the Wu family and the Feng family packed their things and left.

On the Sheng family side, hurry up and bring all the local specialties that have been prepared in advance.

“Go back and study when you need to study, work hard when you need to work, and get along well with your wife.

Once you get married, you become an adult. You must consider things carefully and have a clear eye.

It's Sunday. If anything happens to my husband's family, I can go over there and do some work. Don't just stare and eat every day. "

Before leaving, Sheng Liancheng did not forget to give instructions to his two sons.

"Hey, I got it, dad, don't worry, we will live a good life." Sheng Xian and Sheng Xikang said in unison.

"Shuyan, Yuhua, oh my, seeing that you've only been back for a few days, we girls haven't cared enough about you yet."

Zhang Shuzhen held the hands of her two daughters-in-law and was reluctant to part with them.

"I'm back, remember to write or call if anything happens.

You and your wife have just gotten married, so you must have a lot to adjust to, and life will inevitably have its share of bumps and bumps.

If our brat makes you angry, just call me and let me know. I will support you and I will scold them. "

Speaking of this, Feng Shuyan and Wu Yuhua both laughed.

"Hey, thank you, Mom. Don't worry, Mom, we will get along well. We will go home together during the Chinese New Year."

"Hey, okay, okay, when the time comes, I'll make dumplings filled with pickled cabbage and wait for you." Zhang Shuzhen nodded with a smile.

"This is the settlement allowance that your father and I will give you, five hundred yuan per person.

You just got married and have nothing. If this is close, I should buy you rice and noodles.

Since we are far away, I will give you some money, go back and buy some food, rice, oil and salt, and live a good life. "

Zhang Shuzhen took out two thick red envelopes and gave them to Feng Shuyan and Wu Yuhua.

When Sheng Xiping and Zhou Qinglan got married, they didn't separate and live alone, so the family didn't give them any settling-in allowance.

The second and third children are not here, especially Sheng Xian, who is still studying. Although there are subsidies for graduate students, how can the money be enough?

So Zhang Shuzhen and Sheng Liancheng negotiated to give each of their two sons 500 yuan, which would be considered as settlement expenses.

“No, no, Mom, we can’t accept this money.

You see, when we got married, our family prepared a house, furniture, and appliances. Everything was fully prepared. We also gave such a betrothal gift, and it was three gold coins. It was enough.

We all work and get paid, so we don’t need to pay settling-in expenses from our families. "

When Feng Shuyan and Wu Yuhua heard this, they quickly waved their hands and said they would not accept the money.

"Look, you're being polite to me. Your family is just starting up, and you spend money everywhere.

You keep this money and save it when you don’t need it for the time being. When you have children, you have a lot of expenses, you have some savings on hand, and your life is comfortable.

Listen to me and take it. If you don't take it, you will look down on me, the mother-in-law in the ditch. "

Zhang Shuzhen didn't care about that and just stuffed the money into the pockets of the two wives.

Feng Shuyan and Wu Yuhua saw that they had no choice but to accept the money.

"Thank you, Mom. We are lucky to have a mother-in-law like you. If anyone looks down on you, we will go to her to settle the score."

The two new wives, one on the left and one on the right, put their arms around Zhang Shuzhen's shoulders and smiled.

Sheng Yunfang and Sheng Yunfei both came back from leave. The semester was about to end and they couldn't stay at home, so they had to leave today.

After Zhang Shuzhen gave instructions to her daughter-in-law, she also gave a few instructions to her daughter.

It was late and the train was not waiting for anyone. Sheng Xiping, Chen Ruiqing, and the driver from the Forestry Bureau drove everyone to the train station.

Sheng Xiping bought the tickets in advance, watched everyone check in and get on the bus, and then left.

The Feng family and Sheng Xian will get off the bus at Hunjiang, then take the bus to Changchun, and then reverse back to Bingcheng.

The Wu family, Sheng Xikang, and sisters Sheng Yunfang and Sheng Yunfei took a bus to Shenyang. Then Wu Yucheng and Sheng Yunfei took a flight back to Yangcheng, and Sheng Yunfang took a flight back to Shanghai.

Wu Yucheng had already arranged for the flight tickets and other things.

Others will take a train from Shenyang back to the capital.

"Brother, since you have almost done everything here, I will pick up your sister-in-law and the others later, and we have to go back.

You are busy building the factory first, and when you have time later, we can get together again. "After seeing off their parents' guests, Chen Ruiqing and Sheng Xiping walked side by side outside the train station. Chen Ruiqing said as they walked.

"Brother, are you leaving in such a hurry? Oh, look, I've been so busy these days that neither of us has time to sit down and chat for a while."

When Sheng Xiping heard this, he naturally wanted to persuade him to stay. "How about we stay for two more days, and we go out for a drink in the evening. I still have a lot to say to my brother."

"No, I'm quite busy with work. On the way back, I have to go to Hunjiang and Tonghua to do some errands.

Besides, Xiaofeng and Yue'er haven't gone on summer vacation yet. Now that the semester is coming to an end, they can't miss too much homework.

Next time, we brothers will get together whenever we have time. "Chen Ruiqing smiled and patted Sheng Xiping on the shoulder. The two left the station and drove back.

Returning to the hotel, Chen Ruiqing picked up Shao Minzhi, Chen Feng and Chen Yue.

Chen Feng and the others hadn't had enough fun yet and were reluctant to leave. Finally, Chen Ruiqing promised to let them come during the summer vacation, so the two children reluctantly got in the car and left.

"Brother, sister-in-law, Xiping, if there's nothing going on here, let's go back to the ditch.

Xiping, do you have anything to bring back? Just ask your elder brother to drive him back. "Liu Changde's family also came over and said they wanted to leave.

"Brother, sister-in-law, it's rare to come down and stay for two more days." Sheng Liancheng heard this and hurriedly offered words to persuade him to stay.

"No, it's no good. The chickens, ducks, geese, dogs, and a bunch of open-mouthed beasts in the house are all entrusted to others to take care of them. I don't feel at ease.

Besides, the boss has a breeding farm over there, so he can’t go back and keep an eye on it, right? I looked at the Songjiang River and it wasn't much fun, it couldn't catch up with our ditch.

Let's go back first. When you go back from your work in a few days, I'll meet you for a drink. "Liu Changde waved his hands with a smile.

The farm was approved in spring, and Liu Yujiang has been busy with this matter a while ago.

At present, most of the breeding farm has been built, and the rest will be built slowly.

Liu Yujiang temporarily introduced deer and musk deer from the breeding farm in Donggang, and slowly developed it. After reaching a certain scale, he will consider raising other animals.

"Brother, we have to think about raising wild boars and pheasants later.

You don’t know, pheasant meat is very popular internationally, we can raise it and export it.

It is best to mate wild boars with domestic pigs. The second-generation cross-bred pigs will not be as fat as domestic pigs, but have more lean meat. In a few years, these things will definitely be easy to sell. "

I was too busy these days to talk about the breeding farm. At this moment, Sheng Xiping and Liu Yujiang briefly talked about some opinions on the development of the breeding farm.

Pheasants, wild boars, etc. have short growth cycles, quick results, and good benefits.

In the future, people will pursue green, healthy and pure natural food, and the demand for all kinds of game will continue to rise.

Sheng Xiping's intention was naturally to seize the opportunity and develop in advance.

By the time everyone discovers how to make money, it will be too late if they want to follow suit.

"Understood. I'll think about this carefully when I get back. Okay, you go ahead and get busy. Let's go home first." Liu Yujiang waved his hand and greeted his family members to get in the car.

"Brother, be very careful when you go back. It's not safe for me to look at you for making such a fool of yourself.

Looking back, I'll find a way to buy you a car. This thing is not easy to handle. Sheng Xiping looked at Liu Yujiang's tricycle and couldn't help but frown.

In the village of Dashianchang, there are several people who came from Shandong to make a living in Blind Liuzi. One of them is named Gu and his family is from Wulian.

In the spring of this year, Liu Yujiang asked someone to buy a Taiwanese agricultural tricycle from Wulian to use when working in the fields.

When they came down for the wedding banquet this time, Liu Yujiang drove the family down on a tricycle.

“Oh, no, I’m quite comfortable driving this three-wheeler.

This thing is small and compact, and can run on all roads. If it's a big car, we can't drive around in the village. "

Liu Yujiang smiled and waved his hand, telling everyone in his family to sit down. He took the handle and shook it vigorously.

The tricycle caught fire. Liu Yujiang threw the crank handle into the tool box under the seat, then got on the tricycle. He stepped on the accelerator and the tricycle drove away.

Liu Changde and others were in the car, waving their hands towards Sheng Xiping and the others, and soon disappeared.

Everyone else had left, leaving only his own relatives. Sheng Liancheng refused to let Sheng Lianjie and Zhang Shouzhi leave no matter what, and had to keep them here for a few more days.

It was lively and lively yesterday, but today they all left at once. How embarrassing?

Sheng Lianjie and Zhang Shouzhi couldn't stand it, so they agreed to stay for another two days.

"Xiping, why don't you go and check out all the rooms? We are the only ones left with our own family, so don't waste your money by staying in any hotel.

I see that the two beds in your house are quite big and can accommodate many people. There is really not enough space, so I can find some wooden boards to temporarily build a bed or something, and it can accommodate several people. "

Zhang Shouzhi grabbed his nephew and asked him to check out the room.

"Uncle, no need, we don't have much money, you can just stay in a hotel." Sheng Xiping smiled nonchalantly.

His house is not small, but it can't accommodate so many people. Most of the money has been spent, is there still room left for these three days and two days?

"If you don't check out, then we'll leave too. Why do my family have to spend that money? Isn't this how you spend your money?

You spent a lot of money on Xi'an and Xikang's marriage. No matter how much you earn, you have to save some money. "

Zhang Shouzhi disagreed with everything and had to ask Sheng Xiping to check out.

Others also followed suit, and Sheng Xiping had no choice but to obey and return all the houses, which happened to also settle all the accounts for the past few days.

The conditions of the Forestry Bureau Hotel were good, and both Feng and Wu families lived in double suites.

Each room is fifteen or six square meters, with a bathroom and bath, and most supplies. The external price is twenty-four yuan a night.

There are not so many double suites in the back, and some ordinary double rooms have been arranged. The rooms are slightly smaller and have no private bathroom. One room is sixteen.

Of course, these are all external prices. Because of Zhou Mingyuan's reputation, the hotel also gave a preferential price.

At last count, the room cost was more than 1,500.

The banquet at the wedding was relatively high-end, with whole chickens, elbows, and whole fish served, as well as hard dishes such as pork belly, pork belly, Sixi meatballs, and Mushu meat, so the prices for this table were not low.

Twenty-five tables were set up at noon, and another six tables were set up in the evening. In addition to arranging meals for the guests in the previous few days, as well as smoking and drinking, the total was just over a thousand and fifty.

In fact, after careful calculation, the money for the banquet is not particularly excessive. Even if it is left at home, it will not save much.

Because it was done at home, the work started two days in advance, and so many helpers had to take care of the food.

And it’s troublesome to do it at home. You have to borrow all kinds of household items. When you return them, you have to give them some vegetables, cigarettes, melon seeds, candies, etc. You can’t send them back empty.

So in this calculation, the banquet money is not too much.

Of course, for an ordinary family, it would cost over a thousand yuan to get married, just to have a banquet, and other expenses. As they say, it would take a lot of money.

Sheng Xiping deposited 5,000 yuan in the hotel in advance, and got back more than he needed. The hotel gave him a small change, and finally got 2,000 yuan back. After settling the accounts, everyone returned to Sheng's house.

Sheng Xitai had a tight schedule and went back to class after dinner this morning.

Zhou Qinglan took several days off and couldn't delay it any longer, so as soon as the Feng and Wu families left, she went back to school to work.

There are leftovers from yesterday’s banquet at home, so there’s no need to worry about making anything else for lunch. I can just heat up those dishes and simmer a pot of rice.

It was a rare opportunity for relatives to get together, and everyone was very happy. There happened to be some leftover wine from the banquet, so they had another meal at noon.

While drinking, Sheng Lianjie grabbed Sheng Xiping's hand and talked about how hard life was in his hometown.

It was still the same thing, so Sheng Xiping was free. He wanted to help him think about it, build a bridge or something like that, help sell local things, and find a way out for his relatives in his hometown.

Sheng Xiping looked at his parents and saw that Sheng Liancheng looked embarrassed. He knew that his father should have helped to block the matter and not blocked it.

"Third uncle, please let me think about this matter carefully. When I have time, I will go back to my hometown and take a good look around before talking about it."

He has never lived in his hometown, and his parents have been away for so many years. How do they know what specialties are available in his hometown?

Sheng Xipi had heard from his father that Shancheng was famous for its mutton soup, but there was no way to sell it elsewhere.

You can't go out of town to open a restaurant that specializes in selling mutton soup, right?

Without on-the-spot investigation, Sheng Xiping did not dare to take over everything, so he could only respond like this.

Sheng Lianjie also understood, so he nodded, "Okay, I'll go back and take a look when I'm free. I'm not as good as before now, and I always think about you."

"Well, okay, after Lao Liu finishes his exam and there is nothing to worry about at home, let him stay with my parents and go back to my hometown for a while.

When Lao Liu grew up, it seemed like he just wanted to go back once. "

Sheng Xiping remembered that grandma and grandma seemed to have left in the autumn of this year, and when the new year came, grandpa also left.

As the old man gets older, this kind of thing will inevitably happen to him. But as a junior, it would be considered as a filial piety to go back and visit the old man more often.

Sheng Lianjie and Zhang Shouzhi stayed at Sheng's house for two days and then left by car.

Sheng Xiping kept his two younger brothers, Xiwen and Xiwu, from his third uncle's family. They were young, had not yet married, and had no worries.

Moreover, the two of them had graduated from junior high school and were somewhat educated, so they stayed to be Sheng Xiping's helpers.

Nowadays, Sheng Xiping's business is getting bigger and bigger, and all available people around him have arranged errands. There is indeed a shortage of manpower.

After all, they are his own brothers, and they are more considerate than outsiders. Sheng Xiping tries his best to guide them. As for whether they can succeed or not, it depends on the fate of the two brothers.

As for Sheng Xizheng and Sheng Xihong, they are both married and are the main labor force in the family. They cannot be separated for the time being. We will talk about it later.

Sheng Xiping brought a lot of local specialties to his uncles, and asked them to bring some money back to his grandma and grandma.

After sending away these relatives, Sheng Liancheng and Zhang Shuzhen felt empty in their hearts.

After returning home, the two wanted to calculate the total cost of the wedding of the second and third children with Sheng Xiping, and they took the money.

Sheng Xiping said he didn't want anything, only that he wanted them to keep the money for their retirement.
