Chapter 909 Chairman
"Let me get some video tapes for Tongtong, the kind with English soundtracks." Zhou Zhi thought for a moment and said: "Hong Kong Island is for children to learn English, and I will get a few more English games are educational and entertaining.”
“Really? Thank you, Uncle Ji.” !” Tongtong jumped out to save Zhou Zhi’s arm: “I want games and cartoons!”
After a while, sister-in-law and Jianjun’s cousin’s daughter Jiajia also arrived. Jiajia has entered junior high school this year, and Guan Tingting, who was about the same age, came in, greeted everyone, and went to help in the kitchen.
"Go to my place tonight." Cousin Jianhua said, "I just remembered that Jia Jia lives with grandma, right?"
"Well, it's summer vacation. Jiajia is here to stay with grandma, and I can also help out in the morning." Jianjun's cousin said.
"Jiajia is really the most sensible child in our family, Tongtong, do you know that you can learn more from your sister?"
"Sister Jiajia and brother Zhiwei can also stay at our house?" Tongtong said.
Zhiwei is the son of Jianmin’s cousin. After his parents divorced, he lived with his mother and came over sometimes.
But there is no time today. It is said that I have made an appointment with some classmates to go to Dazu to see the stone carvings. Zhou Zhi feels that this child has quite his own style.
"Sister Jiajia wants to accompany grandma, I think you can stay here and help grandma sell noodles in the morning." Cousin Jianhua teased Tongtong.
“Okay, okay!” Unexpectedly, Tongtong was not only not afraid, but also very happy: “Does selling noodles mean I don’t have to go to school?”
“It’s what you want. Right?" Just then, there was the sound of a car coming at the door, and cousin Jianhua said to Zhou Zhi: "It's your brother-in-law." br>
Zhou Zhi quickly stood up: "Cousin, I'm going with you."
At the door was a man in his fifties wearing trousers, a short-sleeved shirt, leather shoes, and carrying a briefcase. , greeting his driver: "Xiao Wang, please go back first and have a good rest tonight."
The driver in the car said respectfully: "Chairman, I'll leave then."
The man then turned around and came this way. When he passed Zhou Zhi's car, he glanced at him in surprise and reached for his body. , glanced at the interior with some envy, and then realized that someone was looking at him at the entrance of the noodle shop. He quickly changed his face to a serious face and walked over: "Jianhua, where is mom?"
"Tao Ming Are you here? I'm in the kitchen, so don't go in. You haven't seen me before. Let Jianhua introduce it to you. We'll start dinner soon!" Zhou Zhi thought it was funny when Sangu's voice came from the kitchen. The son-in-law is actually quite enthusiastic, and he is probably quite satisfied deep down in his heart. However, due to the secular world, he is embarrassed to express his inner satisfaction, so he talks to others with a complaining tone.
“Hello, brother-in-law, I am Zhou Zhi.” Zhou Zhi said with a smile.
“Elbow helped us with a big thing today. We communicated with Lawrence and everything was agreed upon. After working on it for a long time, most of the professional terms were in Italian. No wonder the English translation couldn’t be understood. .”
"Elbow, do you still understand Italian?" Tao Ming stretched out his hand to Zhou Zhi: "I have admired your name for a long time and know many of your deeds. I haven't heard that you still understand Italian?"
"I I don’t understand either, but I talked to Lawrence and asked for clarification.” Zhou Zhi stretched out his hand to shake Tao Ming’s hand.
“This is really great. We worked hard for two weeks and still didn’t understand what the customer meant.” Tao Ming smiled excitedly: “The elbow has helped us a lot!”
< br>After that, he said to cousin Jianhua: "It's not wrong for me to install a computer for mom to take overseas long distance, right?"
Cousin Jianhua gave him a look: "Just use it this time!"< br>
Everyone entered the house, and Tongtong ran over: "Dad, dad, uncle said he wanted to buy me cartoons and games!" "For learning English." Zhou Zhi said quickly: "Original teaching tapes and English games."
"Actually, I think it would be good for Tongtong to learn some sports courses during the holidays, such as table tennis, swimming, or painting..." He said Here Tao Ming received a cold look from cousin Jianhua, and quickly stopped: "Jianjun, Jianmin, long time no see."
"Brother Tao is here!" The sister-in-law was very enthusiastic: "Wash your hands and get ready to eat. Come on. Tongtong goes to help his sister prepare a meal!”
Cousin Jianjun gave Tao Ming a cigarette: “Are you so busy?”
"Hey, China, where did it come from?" Tao Ming took it and ordered it.
“I gave it to you,” said Jianmin’s cousin, who was also smoking: “He said he always has it in the car. Brother-in-law, the factory shouldn’t be so busy now, right?”
"No matter how big or small! You still do this in front of your elbows and children!" Cousin Jianhua said angrily.
"Jianmin, why don't you come to my factory and work as a pattern maker, I'll pay you two thousand a month."
"Thank you, I won't go!" Cousin Jianmin was lying on the couch, as lazy as a cloth bag: "You want me to change my name to chairman? Hehehe, you can't do that, brother-in-law!"
Zhou Zhi found it funny. At that time, everyone in the family was generally opposed to Jianhua's cousin's marriage, and it even caused quite a stir in the factory.
After all, marriage with a twenty-year age gap is not generally accepted in today’s society.
Only cousin Jianmin jumped out and gave his sister the greatest support. His attitude was that as long as it was something my sister decided, the elder brother would definitely support it.
But when things came true, cousin Jianmin started to show off again. Tao Ming was actually more than ten years older than cousin Jianjun, and he had a calm and dignified temperament. Cousin Jianjun He and his sister-in-law respectfully called him "Brother Tao," but cousin Jianmin called him brother-in-law and refused to call him brother.
But without the strong support of Jianmin's cousin, it's unclear whether this marriage could have happened in Chengdu. Therefore, no matter what Jianmin's cousin called him, Tao Ming could only be grateful.
"You guys, why don't you guys stop smoking?" The sister-in-law brought it over and when she saw the three of them lighting up again, she couldn't help complaining: "Don't imitate these guys, smoking is not good for you."
"I don't know how to do this. These packs of cigarettes came from Brother Dayong. I sent my classmates to the school. When we were at the station, we gave two bags to the person who took us in, but we didn’t use them all.”
“My aunt’s business is amazing now,” Tao Ming said, “You can see advertisements everywhere in Yuzhou. The business is all done on the plane.”
“They let me do it this time. I brought some soy sauce and so on. Every house has it." Zhou Zhi smiled and said, "Sheng Xinglong's soy sauce is very popular now, and you have to queue up to get the money." Not bad. Later, in order to expand production, I added water, salt, sugar, color and taste. Things have just started to change.” Third aunt had finished cooking and came to the living room: “Since your grandfather started selling noodles, we started to make our own sweet soy sauce and add stock. These two unique skills make a living. I'm getting nervous. If it weren't for a natural disaster, well..."
"Sweet soy sauce and stock are also the basis of Sichuan cuisine." Zhou Zhi smiled and said, "Does Sangu have any descendants?" You can't do this." Third Gu asked everyone to sit down: "You can drink with your elbows like this, let's have a special drink. Qu, your dad brought it to me back then."
"Oh, Mom, you are so generous today!" Cousin Jianhua joked, pretending to be surprised: "I was willing to take out the wine that Uncle Yao gave me. ? ”
