Chapter 440: Parents are having trouble
I drove my aunt back to her home first. Because it was a little late, I didn’t stay at her home too long. After a conversation, the two sisters said goodbye and left.
Back at home, first lift the chicken coop out of the car, feed them and clean the chicken coop. Of course, Zhao Xiaolan will do this. Before driving to meet the bride the day after tomorrow, these two chickens must be taken good care of and no problems can occur to them.
The other things will continue to be placed in Chen Feng's car. Anyway, these things will have to be loaded into the car and sent there by then.
After his mother lifted the chicken coop and slipped it away, Chen Feng immediately drove to his car wash shop. Although the chicken coop was taken out, the car still smelled of chicken feces. In addition, the car still smells like chicken feces after buying it. I haven't washed it yet, I just went to wash it.
The car drove into his own car wash shop. There were already more than a dozen cars waiting here. It can be said that business is booming.
This has been expanded to three professional car washing spaces, and the number of employees has also increased by three or four.
As the boss, Chen Rui basically no longer washes cars in person. Most of the time he just sits in the office and supervises employees, or contacts franchisees to purchase some things.
Of course, if the business is too good and the business is really busy, he, the boss, will personally go out and wash people's cars. After all, it is to make money, not to be shabby.
When Chen Feng came over, Chen Rui was standing outside smoking, not in the office.
Chen Feng drove over directly and said to him: "Brother, wash the car for me."
"Okay." Chen Rui readily agreed, threw away the cigarette butt, and went to pull the water pipe for the car wash.
Now there are three more formal car washing stalls in the store, but if it gets really busy, you can wash it in the open air. Anyway, the water pipes and other equipment used for car washing are all spared.
Chen Feng got out of the car and stood aside, watching his brother wash the car. He had no intention of stepping forward to help. He is now wearing very clean clothes, while his brother is wearing a set of relatively waterproof overalls.
Besides, the car wash shop has a professional car washing process, so Chen Feng will not interfere randomly.
"A Feng, have you bought everything you need for your engagement?" Chen Rui asked casually.
“I bought them all. There was also a rooster and a hen in a cage defecating, which made my car smell like chicken shit.”
Chen Rui smiled and said: “ No wonder, I wonder why there is such a stock? I thought it was an illusion, but it turned out to be from your car. I need to wash it carefully later, and then open the windows and doors to disperse the smell."
"Hmm, the day after tomorrow. Are you going too?" Chen Feng asked.
“Of course we’ll go together. I’m just the two nephews, so it won’t look good if we don’t go.”
"But besides my car, are there any other cars for the wedding?"
"Originally, we hired two cars. A Bing from our village, do you know? He has a Land Rover that he just bought last year. , said it was bought for more than 500,000 yuan, specifically to work for people. , a friend of his drives a BMW 4, and he only has two cars occasionally. Now that he has a better car like yours, he has no choice but to let go of his friend’s BMW.”
"This is not good. Didn't you already make an agreement with them?"
Chen Feng knew this soldier from the same village. He was five or six years older than him. When he was young, he was a local gangster. Later, he got into fights and injured others. He was arrested and jailed for several years. After he came out, he heard that Partnering with others to open a small underground mobile casino means opening Temporary mobile casinos are usually located in inaccessible mountains, or in highly secure farms, resorts, etc. They introduce wealthy people to gamble. Some specialize in driving customers, looking into the wind, and some specializing in hosting gambling games. , there are people who are specifically responsible for retreat and escape. Generally difficult to catch.
After all, A Bing had been in the palace and knew what was good. After making some money, he immediately quit and became a shareholder in a clothing factory here. After that, he married a wife and had children. Now he is the father of two children. , life is happy.
Because of his deeds, he is certainly a celebrity in their local area, and everyone knows about him.
Now A Bing’s main job is to help people drive and act as a driver for them. Like this time, it is the most important business to serve as a wedding car for weddings. According to local customs here, there is not only hard work money, but also red envelopes, and both men and women receive them.
The trip only takes half a day at most, and costs a few hundred yuan at least. If you meet a generous person, it can easily cost you a thousand yuan.
Now A Bing has become the envy of many locals, a typical example of a prodigal son who never returns money.
"It's okay. I told him yesterday. Just give the other party a bag of Huazi as an apology. If it weren't for the fact that four wedding cars are unnecessary and unpleasant, we can just find another one. ”
Of course, there must be an even number of wedding cars, and it is best to have six cars, because four cars are a bit unsightly because of Geely.
After all, his brother-in-law and Mao Xiaoling were only engaged this time, and they were both married for the second time. There was really no need to have such a grand ceremony. Two wedding cars were enough.
Chen Feng can also understand what Chen Rui said.
After a while, Chen Rui suddenly said: "A Feng, I plan to move to a new house after the summer vacation. Do you have any objection?"
Chen Feng was stunned for a moment. , asked: "What opinions can I have?"
Chen Rui bought a house at the beginning of this year and has been decorating it for two or three months.
“But my mother was a little opposed to it. She said she wanted us to move next year and let the house air out to prevent formaldehyde from affecting the children’s health. I said I used environmentally friendly paints, no Formaldehyde, she just doesn’t believe it.”
When Chen Feng heard what his brother said, he knew that he wanted him to help convince his mother. Chen Feng is not that stupid. If he tells his mother about this, he will definitely be punished. What's more, Chen Feng knew very well that his mother was reluctant to live separately from his brother and two granddaughters.
Chen Feng said immediately: "Brother, since mom said you will move next year, we will move next year. It's normal that she can't bear to leave you and your two children. Besides, aren't you comfortable living with your parents? ?”
Chen Rui was speechless for a while when he heard this, and then he mumbled for a while: “The main thing is that the new house has been decorated long ago, so it’s not a problem to keep it empty...”
Chen Feng interrupted directly: "Did my sister-in-law give you pillow talk? Brother, I'm not talking about you. Your wife is very important. After all, she is the one who will accompany you all your life. But aren't your parents important? Mom? It’s not like she won’t let you move out, she just wants you to stay with her for a few more months. It’s a bit unreasonable if you can’t even satisfy her.”
After hearing Chen Feng’s words, Chen Rui couldn’t help but look constipated. shape. In fact, it was his wife who kept talking to him about moving to a new house. His wife told his parents at first, but she didn't agree, and later she didn't dare to say anything. So, he kept urging his son to speak, but he tried several times but failed.
Originally, he wanted his younger brother to come forward and help convince his mother. But when he heard what his younger brother said, he was of course very embarrassed and it was difficult to refute.
After all, what Chen Feng said was right.
Furthermore, Chen Feng now has a successful career and is better than his elder brother in every aspect. Especially this time when he came back with a luxury car worth more than one million yuan, he was shocked and admired from the bottom of his heart.
So much so that he felt a little lack of confidence in front of this younger brother.
"Brother, go and talk to your sister-in-law. Let your family stay with your parents for a few more months. We will move here after the Chinese New Year this year." Chen Rui said with a bitter face: " I have no problem. Mainly your sister-in-law, she has always dreamed of living there. Suite. Now that the suite has been decorated for two or three months, but she can't move in, it feels like a cat's claw scratching her heart... Besides, it's not easy for the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law to be together for a long time, and they are prone to conflicts. It's better to live separately. Besides, we are new. The house is not far from my parents’ place, it’s only a few minutes’ walk away.”
My sister-in-law and my mother, of course Chen Feng chose to side with my mother. , said bluntly: "Sister-in-law wants to live in If it’s a suite, let her live in it first.”
He always thought that his mother was kind to his sister-in-law. After all, she helped her raise two children and cooked every day. He didn't even ask for any money from the couple. It’s already good to get to this point.
On the contrary, his sister-in-law Li Guihong seemed to take Zhao Xiaolan's mother-in-law's contribution for granted. Although she was not disrespectful or filial to her mother-in-law, she did not seem to care about her mother-in-law much and helped share more housework.
Chen Feng had already noticed this before, but it was not easy for his brother-in-law to interfere or say anything in the affairs between their mother-in-law and daughter-in-law. Some of the grievances and resentments between the two of them were not completely understandable to him.
But if there is a real conflict between mother-in-law and daughter-in-law, Chen Feng will naturally side with his mother.
"What are you talking about?" Chen Rui looked at him with a bit of laughter and said, "Do you want me and your sister-in-law to separate?"
Chen Feng said unmoved: "Just let my sister-in-law endure it for a few more months. Okay. I'm not talking about her. It's not bad for her to not tell her, but it's not bad at all. She just nags her sometimes. She won't always hold a grudge for it, right? Elders.”
Chen Rui smiled bitterly and said: "You also know that mom loves to nag, and what annoys your sister-in-law the most is her nagging. So, I think it is best for them to live separately. Otherwise, if one day your sister-in-law can't stand it anymore She is nagging and it will be troublesome if she makes a fuss."
After hearing this, Chen Feng frowned and said, "Sister-in-law, is she so eager to move here?"
Chen Rui nodded seriously: "Yes, she dreamed of it."
Chen Feng thought for a while and said: "How about you and your sister-in-law live there first. One of the two children will be left. Or you can all stay with your mother. Otherwise, you and your sister-in-law won’t be able to take care of them.”
Chen Feng certainly doesn’t want a conflict between his mother and his sister-in-law to break out. So, making a compromise, this method seems to be the best.
Chen Rui said: "Your sister-in-law is planning to resign from the factory. After all, her exhausting job only earns more than 3,000 yuan a month at most. Now that I have made money, she might as well resign and focus on taking care of her two children at home. Have a child and be a full-time housewife.”
Both my brother and his wife are married. Having made plans, what else could Chen Feng say, "Then I don't care. If your family really wants to move, just move there."
Chen Rui smiled bitterly and said, "The problem is that my mother doesn't agree. I I've told her several times, but she just doesn't agree. Your sister-in-law and I can't really force ourselves. Move away on your own, otherwise you know my mother's temper. I will definitely quarrel with your sister-in-law, and I will definitely be in trouble."
After saying this, Chen Rui paused. With a smile on his face, he continued: "A Feng, you have more dignity than me. How about you help me talk to my mother?" Talk to her about this and persuade her."
Seeing the fawning look on his brother's face, Chen Feng also knew how difficult it was for his husband and son, so he finally nodded softly and agreed: "Then I'll give it a try. But it may not work."
"Whether it works or not, you won't know until you try it. I believe you can do it. Although my mother often nags you, what you say has the most weight in her heart."
This Chen Feng is quite comfortable wearing a high hat.
Next, the brothers said nothing more. After Chen Feng said hello to his brother, he went to sit in the office.
Chen Rui continued to wash Chen Feng's car seriously.
After washing the car almost ten minutes later, Chen Feng asked his brother for the key to the garage where he was washing, and then drove away.
While waiting just now, Chen Feng had contacted Guo Mengyao on WeChat, and the woman finally agreed to go to the appointment that night.
And said that the time should be advanced because she had to go home to sleep with her daughter before ten o'clock in the evening.
The original agreement was for seven o'clock, but now it's almost five o'clock. The two agreed to meet at the hotel before six o'clock.
It is not too early for Chen Feng to pass by at this time.
As the car was about to enter the new city, the mobile phone on the dashboard rang. Chen Feng glanced at it and saw that it was his mother's phone number, so he had to answer it and put it on speakerphone.
"Mom, what's the matter?" Chen Feng asked straight to the point.
"Where are you now? Come back soon."
"What's the matter? If nothing happens, I won't go back for the time being. I'm here in the county, meeting an old classmate, let's go together Have a meal.”
"Xiaoting is here. Come back and have dinner with her in the evening. Your classmates pushed her away."
Chen Feng couldn't help being stunned and asked: "Why is Mengting here? She is here What?”
"You kid, what's wrong with her coming? Can't she come? She's here to see me. Come back soon."
"My classmates have all made appointments and everyone has arrived in the county. I won't do it first. Go back. Tell Meng Ting, she will understand. "
"You kid..."
"Mom, I'm driving, let's just say this first."
After Chen Feng finished speaking hurriedly. , and immediately hung up the phone.
Zhao Xiaolan was so angry that she wanted to fight again, but Wu Mengting stopped her: "Auntie, Brother Feng and I are not outsiders. Since he has made an appointment with his classmate, let's forget it."
When Zhao Xiaolan heard what she said, she immediately smiled and pulled her He raised his hand and said, "You are a sensible kid. Ah Feng must have accumulated good deeds before he met such a good girl like you."
Wu Mengting smiled sheepishly and said, "Auntie, Feng Brother, he is actually very good. If he can accept me, that will be the case. My blessing."
Of course Zhao Xiaolan was very happy to hear her praise her son. She patted her hand affectionately and said, "Don't worry, I have given him an ultimatum. He will be here within this year. Finalize your affairs even if he doesn't agree. It’s useless. If you agree, when you go back this time, I will take your aunt to your house, meet your parents, and talk about you and A Feng in detail. What do you think?”
