Qu Dajiang walked up to Qu Lianjie who was about to help carry something, held his hand directly, and said with gratitude:
"Lianjie, Uncle Dajiang wants to say thank you! Thank you so much for giving your brother Shunzi and your sister-in-law this opportunity, otherwise they would have to live in this countryside for the rest of their lives!"
Qu Lianjie replied very humbly:
"Uncle Dajiang, Brother Shunzi and I grew up together. It's too unreasonable for you to say that. And when I say thank you, it's me who wants to thank Brother Shunzi. He can come over and help me. It's really hard for an outsider to do this!"
Some of my friends also came to say goodbye. After having a drink a few days ago, they all chose to forget about the previous unpleasantness and get back together.
Of course, this must have something to do with Qu Lianjie being rich. It doesn't mean that these young people are snobbish. This is human nature, and adults must consider reality.
Qu Lianwu, who worked as an auxiliary policeman at the town police station, came over and hugged Qu Lianjie, and said in a very sincere tone:
"When everything is fine, drive back and let's drink together!"
After hearing this, Qu Lianjie patted his back, let go and smiled at everyone present:
"If any of you come to Shanghai, be sure to call me, and I'll treat you all to Moutai!"
Afterwards, amid farewells from relatives and friends, the car slowly drove away from his hometown village. Qu Lianjie watched his mother's figure getting further and further away in the rearview mirror, feeling a little sad.
Qu Lianshun and his wife, who were sitting in the back row, felt a little uncomfortable, especially Qi Hong, a mother, who missed her son even more.
Qu Lianjie's mood went away as quickly as it came, and he quickly adjusted himself. Seeing that his brother and sister-in-law in the back row were a little uncomfortable, he reached out and played a cheerful song.
Later, while driving, he asked:
"Brother Shunzi, sister-in-law, when you left, didn't Ozawa Yang say you wanted to come with us?"
"Don't mention it, Zeyang has been clamoring to come together since last night. Your brother and I sneaked out this morning while he was awake!" Qi Hong replied with a smile.
Listening to cheerful songs, looking at the scenery on the roadside, and yearning for the future also made her temporarily forget her sadness.
At this time, Qu Lianshun remembered what he had just discussed with his wife, and said to Qu Lianshun who was driving:
"Lianjie, how much does it cost to rent that house for you? I'm renting the house to you. I can't ask you to rent a house for us!"
Upon hearing this, Qu Lianjie waved his hand and made up an excuse at random:
"Actually, it's not rented. It's my friend's house. He goes to work out of town, so the house is empty. Just treat it as helping to look after the house!"
"Oh, that's right~" Qu Lianshun didn't think much about it.
However, Qi Hong, as a woman with a more delicate mind, felt something was wrong and asked uncertainly:
"Lianjie, is this really the case?"
Qu Lianjie couldn't make up any more. One lie would require countless lies to cover, so he changed the topic directly:
"Just stay at ease, sister-in-law. I just happened to tell you about my work arrangements!"
"Sister-in-law, please work as the foreman in the main store for a while to familiarize yourself with the environment. When we open a branch, you can become the store manager!"
"Brother Shunzi, because the main store is relatively large and the purchasing department is also in the main store, this way you can be closer to my sister-in-law. I will hire a driver when you get back, and you will be in charge of purchasing and delivering goods every day~"
Qu Lianshun and his wife looked at each other. They didn't expect Qu Lianjie to think so highly of him. After thinking for a moment, Qi Hong made a decision in her heart and said solemnly:
"Lianjie, sister-in-law, it's better not to go directly and become the foreman. That will make it difficult for you. You should let me start as a waiter~"
"Your sister-in-law is right, just go and become the foreman. It's inevitable that some people will say that you are nepotistic and you will not be easy to manage in the future~" Qu Lianshun also echoed from the side.
Qu Lianjie didn't care about this, but when he thought about it, the direct air landing would indeed affect the unity, and then he said with a smile:
"That's okay, sister-in-law, I just wronged you. You should work as a waiter for a while to get familiar with the environment. When the time comes, I will let you be the foreman. You can't refuse anymore!"
Hearing Qu Lianjie's agreement, Qi Hong also showed a smile on her face. She was a simple rural woman who had never taken care of anyone before. Suddenly she was asked to be the foreman, which made her feel a little scared.
In this way, you and I were chatting, time passed quickly, and soon we arrived at the Guangling service area. After filling up the gas, Qi Hong's mind moved, and she gently touched her husband's arm and gave him a look.
Qu Lianshun also reacted and suggested:
"Lian Jie, you've been driving for almost three hours. Let's change shifts and you should take a break!"
"Okay, then you'll drive!" Qu Lianjie got out of the car and sat in the passenger seat.
After Qu Lianshun got in the car, he sat on the seat and looked at the interior of the car. He held the steering wheel and couldn't help but sigh:
"Brother, I have never driven such a good car before, and I will lend it to you this time!"
Qu Lianjie was adjusting the seat of the co-pilot when he heard this and replied with a smile:
"Brother Shunzi, this doesn't matter. As long as you work hard, you will definitely be able to drive this car in five years~"
Qi Hong couldn't help but say something in the back row:
"Honey, be careful when you drive. Don't rush like you did when you drove our truck. You might scratch Lian Jie's car later!"
"Don't worry~" Qu Lianshun said and started the car and drove away from the service area.
Qu Lianjie rested against the passenger seat for a while, then turned to look at Qu Lianshun who was driving, and something suddenly came to his mind.
Then he took out his cell phone and called his father. After getting through, he said:
"Dad, I won't go home with you. I'll go get Brother Shunzi and Sister-in-law Qi Hong settled!"
Qu Datou was sitting in the back row of his phantom with his cell phone at this time. As soon as he heard his son's words, he immediately understood that this was an excuse. This kid just didn't want to go home.
But he couldn't let his son take Shunzi and the others back directly, because the people from his hometown and his wife Xu Li didn't like each other, and it could even be said that they disliked each other.
However, when his nephew’s daughter-in-law came over, he wanted to treat her to a meal. So after thinking for a while, Qu Datou said directly into the phone directly:
"It should be noon when we arrive in the city. I'll go with you. It just so happens that I, the uncle, will invite Shunzi and the others to have lunch, and then we'll go home together!"
"Your grandma and your mother have brought us a lot of things and they are all in my car. You can take some back and then have dinner at home. Your sister will go to school in the United States during the Lantern Festival!"
After hanging up the phone, Qu Lianjie sighed and murmured: "After all, I still haven't escaped. It's true that the devil is as high as the Taoist!"
Arriving in Magic City soon, Qu Lianjie first went to the store to find Zhao Mei and get the key, because she helped rent the house.
After that, he helped carry the luggage and went to a community not far away. After taking the elevator up, Qu Lianjie took out the key and opened the door.
Welcoming Qu Lianshun and his wife who were looking reserved behind them, he introduced them warmly:
"Brother Shunzi, sister-in-law, this is a one-bedroom apartment. It is relatively close to our store. It can be reached in 15 minutes on foot. It is also convenient for commuting. However, it is a bit small and it is still an old house. You can make do with it first. !”
"Lianjie, how can I be a general here? I'm just here to enjoy the blessings!" Qi Hong replied excitedly as she looked at the house in front of her.
After that, she took her husband around the house, and she couldn't be more satisfied. This is her dream home.
