Now, Xu Cheng cherishes the healthy parent-child relationship between him and his two children.
This improvement in the parent-child relationship began the night before Xu Zhiyi's wedding.
That night, Xu Zhiyi had an emotional breakdown, and she and Xu Zhian accused him of not loving them, which was extremely irritating to him.
He spent a long time reflecting on himself.
He was engaged in education. He became famous at a young age and got the title of famous teacher early. He claimed that he knew the best about education. However, he was blindly arrogant and lost his principles when it came to educating his children.
Just as Mingrui said, in front of his two children, he confused the roles of teacher and father. He always felt that as long as his starting point was to love them, he could never treat them too much.
But ignored their feelings.
In his thirty-year education career, he has experienced batch after batch of students and has the most intuitive experience of the characteristics of students in different periods.
In recent years, what he feels most deeply is that with the improvement of material living standards, the number of students suffering from depression has been increasing year by year, and the situation has become more serious.
At present, apart from limited guidance, the school cannot find a good solution.
This itself is a social problem and cannot be solved by schools alone.
A few days ago, a shocking and sad thing happened at Acropolis Middle School.
In this senior year of high school, there was a boy who had been depressed for a long time. During his depression, he secretly rode his parents' motorcycle for a ride while his parents were not paying attention. As a result, he was involved in a one-way traffic accident in the wilderness and died on the spot.
There are various signs that it may be suicide.
This student is the child of a school teacher.
The way this teacher educates children is very similar to the way Xu Cheng used to treat Xu Zhiyi and Xu Zhian.
After knowing this, a chill ran down his back.
He kept thanking his two children for never leaving him.
It is really thought-provoking and troublesome to dig deep into the root causes of students' depression, which are all related to family environment and family education.
He has achieved very little on social issues by his own efforts.
However, he can love his children well, even if they have grown up, it is never too late to love them.
He had to think carefully about Xu Zhian's matter.
He knew the weight of his words to his two children, and when encountering major events, he always tried his best to plan for them, so he was more cautious and did not speak easily.
Seeing Xu Zhian still looking at him eagerly, he chuckled and said:
"Xiao An, don't worry. Let Dad think about it. Your mother specially bought the local small melon that just came on the market this morning and went to cut a melon for your brother-in-law and second uncle to eat."
"Oh, okay."
Xu Zhian went to the kitchen.
Mingrui knew that Xu Cheng was cautious in doing things, so he didn't rush him and chatted with Su Jianguo.
While chatting, Su Jianguo couldn't help but ask him:
"Niece-in-law, there is something I don't understand. Your father and your aunt will not take over your grandma's company. I know this. They are public officials. The country has regulations and cannot touch this red line.
But you are not in politics, you are the relegated grandson of the Ming family, you are so smart and capable, and the company around you has such a big family business, it is only right to leave it to you to guard, why are you looking for this and that? "
Mingrui smiled and said: "Second uncle, I have no interest in real estate. My energy is limited and I have no time to take care of the surrounding companies. I just want to focus on doing what I like.
My grandma knew what I liked and never forced it, so she came up with this method of finding someone to manage the company. "
After hearing what he said, Su Jianguo resisted curling his lips, said "Oh" lightly and said nothing again.
Later, Xu Zhian brought the cut melon. He took a piece and ate it absentmindedly, not knowing the taste.
At this time, Xu Cheng also thought about it and expressed his opinion.
"Xiao An, dad thinks you can do it.
It's normal that you don't have the confidence now because you know nothing about company management.
Not taking advantage of unknown things, but still maintaining awe, just shows that you are not a rash person, you have a bottom line, you are a very responsible person, and you are suitable for management positions. "
Octavia nodded in agreement, "Dad is right, Xiao An, believe in dad, me, and grandma's vision, you can do it.
I am telling you this today not to ask you to take over the position of president immediately. With your current qualifications, you really cannot convince the public.
Since you know very little about company management, go and learn it. In addition to studying in the company, you can also sign up for a management training class to learn management knowledge, and you will gradually get started. "
As soon as Mingrui finished speaking, Xu Zhian started wailing:
"Do you still want to sign up for classes?
No, you should spare me, this kind of high-level thing is really not suitable for me.
I don’t want to study, brother-in-law, you can’t realize how harmful studying is to scumbags like us.
In the face of learning, people like us are as humble as grandsons.
On the day I graduated from a vocational college, I swore to God that I would never study again.
If you continue to study, you would rather die!
Dad, I really can't do this job.
Okay, I'm done.
Huh? Why don't my mother and sister come out? Let me go and see what's going on? "
After saying that, he ran away quickly.
Octavia was speechless.
Well……
He never expected that Xu Zhian would be scared away from studying.
If we get off to a bad start, we can only look for another opportunity to speak out.
In the afternoon, something happened in the sales department of Guanyun Cemetery, and Xu Zhian and Su Jianguo rushed to deal with it.
The two brothers brought by Xu Zhian had an argument with a customer. The brother didn't know why, but pushed the customer down.
The customer called the police.
When the police arrived, they took all the parties involved to the police station.
Xu Zhian is the person in charge of the sales department. He has to step forward and deal with any issues that arise in the sales department immediately.
After going there, I learned that my brother recommended the customer because the customer made a joke about my brother being mute, which caused my brother's dissatisfaction.
In order to protect his younger brother, he reminded the customers not to make such jokes. The customers did not take it seriously and continued to make fun of his younger brother unscrupulously.
There was a quarrel over this, and the brother acted impulsively.
In fact, it's not a big deal. It can be solved by understanding each other, taking a step back, and apologizing to each other.
It happened that this customer was difficult to deal with, and he knew the details of the two brothers. He refused to accept the elder brother's apology, let alone apologize to the younger brother, and kept shouting that the police station should detain the elder brother.
That arrogant attitude made Xu Zhian and Su Jianguo's teeth itch with hatred, but they could only endure it.
The two brothers were sentenced to probation for being accomplices in extortion, and with Xu Zhian's understanding, the probation period will expire in one month.
If someone is detained by the police again during the probation period and someone deliberately causes trouble, the probation will be revoked and the person will be sent to jail.
If this is really the case, then the gains outweigh the losses.
After weighing the situation, in order to protect his brother and calm the customer's anger, Xu Zhi'an kept saying good things to the customer and promised to give a 50% discount to the cemetery chosen by the customer.
Xu Zhian made up the difference with his own money.
I finally understand this.
When we came out of the police station, it was already dark.
The two brothers knew they had caused trouble for Xu Zhian. After they came out, they kept their heads down, feeling guilty and silent.
Xu Zhian said nothing, patted them on the shoulders, led them to have dinner at a nearby restaurant, and took them back to their residence with Su Jianguo.
Xu Zhian found the place where they lived.
After sending the two brothers off, Su Jianguo saw that he was in a bad mood, so the two found a barbecue restaurant and drank and chatted while making skewers.
After three rounds of drinking, Su Jianguo's chatterbox opened up.
"Xiao An, I really don't understand why you don't want to be the president of a nearby company.
You know, this is a position that many people can't even ask for, and you actually don't want it even if you don't want it.
It really pisses me off!
If you don’t want to be the one, I’ll be the one!
What’s so difficult about being the president of a company?
You young people always say that when the wind blows, pigs can fly.
Haven't you figured it out yet?
The position of the president of the nearby company is a big outlet, and a pig can manage the company well even sitting there.
What are you afraid of!
Listen to your second uncle, don't be stupid, quickly promise your brother-in-law, and be the CEO well. "
Xu Zhian was also slightly drunk. After listening to his words, he waved and shook his head:
"Well...Second uncle, you don't understand, it's inappropriate, it's too tiring.
When you sit in that position, you can't be a pig. The jobs of so many people are on you, and you have a heavy responsibility. You can't behave like a pig, and you can't..."
Su Jianguo became excited, slammed the table, stood up, put his hands on his waist, and shouted:
"If you don't want to be a pig, then just do your best! What is there to be afraid of?!
Do you know that once you sit in that position, you, your descendants, and even me, your brother-in-law, and the rest of the Xu family will no longer have to be pigs.
Our destiny has changed drastically since then!
Big changes, do you understand?
Do you know how important it is for a person to have a strong family background?
Your second uncle, I just suffered the disadvantage of not having any financial resources.
If you don’t have any financial resources, you won’t be able to withstand any storm.
Look at your brother-in-law again. Just because the Ming family has such a strong family background, he does everything based on his own preferences, and money is not a factor.
It's not like us, who spend all day cowardly for a few taels of silver.
You said that if you were to sit as the president of a nearby company, would you still have to handle the matter at the police station yourself today?
cant!
The company around you has such a big family business, but your sister-in-law's family doesn't look down on it, saying she wants to do what she likes.
What kind of people are these? Who is it?
There is really no comparison between people.
No wonder people say that reincarnation is a technical job. If someone has a good life, he will be born into such a good family. "
These words really spoke from Su Jianguo's heart.
He has suffered enough from his poor family background.
His parents didn't leave him any wealth, so he had to work hard and save everything by himself.
After twenty or thirty years of hard work, I finally managed to get some financial resources, and finally returned to before liberation.
The foundation is too poor, the starting point is too low, there is nothing we can do, and we cannot withstand the storm.
Xu Zhian is still young and has not experienced these things, so he has not realized the importance of family wealth at all.
No, he must wake him up today, "Xiao An, do you know how the Zhou family made their fortune?"
Xu Zhian was a little confused, "Which Zhou family?"
Su Jianguo clicked his tongue, "Which other Zhou family could there be? Your brother-in-law's uncle's family, Zhou Feng, is currently the president of the surrounding company. Our Guanyun Cemetery Sales Department, whatever we do now, depends on the Zhou family."
After what he said in detail, Xu Zhian became a little emotional. He did have opinions about the Zhou family.
Since he took charge of the sales of Guanyun Cemetery, the Zhou family often went to the sales department to find trouble, with a condescending attitude.
He couldn't figure it out. Guanyun Cemetery was not a big project for the surrounding companies.
This project was handed over to him personally by Zhou Lan. The Zhou family should know why they are still staring at this project, as if he is hindering them.
Next, Su Jianguo told him in detail the history of the Zhou family.
The fate of the Zhou family began to change when Zhou Lan married into the Ming family.
Before that, the Zhou family was just an ordinary family with little wealth.
Since Feng Xiaoyu appointed Zhou Feng to be the boss of a nearby company, he took advantage of his position to bring people related to the Zhou family into the real estate industry.
As the saying goes, those who are near the water and the towers get the moon first, and the Zhou family played this game well.
Through Zhou Feng, the Zhou family established several construction companies under their name.
The projects of surrounding companies are all handed over to these companies.
It was not enough to have a construction company. Later, supporting building materials sales companies, construction engineering equipment leasing companies, engineering consulting cost companies, etc. were established.
It can be said that the company established by the Zhou family covers all aspects of construction projects, forming a one-stop money-making model.
These companies don't worry about business at all.
With Zhou Feng here, business resources are monopolized.
No other company can get involved.
Other companies or contractors get a little bit of the Zhou family's pie.
A small contractor like Su Jianguo only needs some soup.
The Ming family knew about this and intended to support the Zhou family. As long as they did not do anything illegal, they would turn a blind eye.
This created the current Zhou family.
In the past thirty years, the Zhou family has accumulated a solid fortune and has its own place in the wealthy circle of Acropolis.
Without the opportunity given by Feng Xiaoyu, how could the Zhou family have developed so fast in the past thirty years?
Now, this opportunity is Xu Zhian's turn, and this stupid boy actually said he didn't want it.
This was the first time Xu Zhian heard something about the Zhou family, and he was really shocked.
It turns out that this can still be done.
He finally understood what Su Jianguo meant.
In other words, if he takes the position of president of a nearby company and uses his convenient resources, people in the Xu family can set up similar companies like the Zhou family and make a fortune.
This sounds too...
He didn't know how to describe it.
All in all, I felt a little uncomfortable.
Su Jianguo wanted to persuade him, but he didn't want to hear it. He stood up, waved his hand and said:
"Second uncle, I'm a little tired. I'm going home first. You can take a taxi back. Remember, don't drive when you're drunk, don't drink when you drive, and your loved ones will shed tears if you drive improperly."
Su Jianguo was a little dumbfounded, "I know, you don't need to teach me, you have to pay attention to safety. Xiao An, you have to think carefully about what I say, and don't be stupid."
After getting into the taxi, the cold wind blew, and Xu Zhian's mind was completely clear.
Along the way, he was thinking about Su Jianguo's words.
He was depressed for several days.
Seeing that he was not in a good mood, Xu Cheng found an opportunity to have a good talk with him.
"Xiao An, tell dad the truth. Apart from the reason you said you don't want to study, what else are you worried about?"
Xu Zhian had been holding it in for several days, and when Xu Cheng asked, he all said it out loud.
