Rebirth: 1977

Xia Yingying's mother has served as vice chairman of the trade union in a state-owned enterprise for many years. Her work is easy and the benefits are generous.

It was only two years after I removed the word "deputy" from my position that the company provided me with a car and a driver.

Such treatment can be said to be standard for a union chairman of a large enterprise.

The reason why she can move up a level at her age is self-evident. One is that her family is quite strong and at least will not hold her back.

In addition, her man is now in charge of a region, and that region is Pengcheng, which enjoys the best policies in the country.

The achievements are remarkable and eye-catching.

Equally...jealous!

When Xia Minglei was at the peak of his career, he was suddenly assigned to that desolate seaside town with a transfer order. Everyone thought he was exiled because he was disliked by his superiors.

Not many people knew the inside story, but many were just watching. For a while, life at home was not easy.

Now, I have finally made it through, and I have finally made it through.

No matter how many people want to place someone in that place, they all come to her and flatter her.

As for the gifts, Xia Minglei repeatedly instructed his family that normal social interactions were acceptable, but they must not exceed the limit!

The problem is that "normal" and "exceeding the standard" are vague concepts and rely on self-discipline.

Fortunately, Xia Minglei has always been strict with his wife and children, and they dare not go beyond his strict orders.

Except for the youngest daughter who is a little spoiled and playful, the others are well-behaved and have all gotten married. One son and one daughter serve as section chiefs in the unit and work diligently.

Xia Minglei’s eldest son is one year older than Xia Zijian. He is 31 years old this year. His son is already five years old and now serves as deputy director.

If deputy cadres have ideals and ambitions, they will not slack off at work.

Xia Yingying complained that her eldest brother did not come to pick her up. That was because she was used to having everyone in the family revolve around her, but she forgot that she was now married.

Xia Minglei, the head of the family, dotes on his youngest daughter, and his two older brothers and one older sister naturally obey her.

It’s just that the two older brothers have sisters-in-law, and the older sister has a brother-in-law. They all have their own small families and children. There is also another big family with which they have close ties and shared interests.

He continued to pamper her because the attitude of Xia Minglei, who was in a high position of power, had not changed much.

Where do so many truly unconditional and brainless group favorites come from?

After brothers and sisters have all started their own families and careers, who wouldn’t move the abacus beads for their own family?

On the evening of the 15th, Qiao Jingyu received a call from her husband in Pengcheng, telling her that her little daughter Yingying was on the train back to Beijing.

Qiao Jingyu was surprised. Yingying was going home, and she called her before she got on the train to tell her? She thought Xia Minglei must have known about it.

But listening to what he said now, it was not the case at all.

She held the microphone, at a loss. What was this father and daughter doing?

"Yingying was too willful this time. She knew that Zijian's younger son was celebrating his 100th day today, but she still came from far away from abroad to celebrate for them.

She, on the other hand, was not sensible at all. She bought a train ticket back to Beijing without saying a word.

They didn't even say hello to me. I only found out about this when I arrived at the hotel. Can you imagine how embarrassed I was when I met my mother-in-law and Zijian's sister and brother-in-law?

This child is spoiled. Wait until she gets home and have a good talk with her and ask her to come back immediately.

Zijian's mother will stay in Pengcheng for a while, as will Xia Zilan, who is both Zijian's sister and Ye Tianshui's wife.

Your daughter really has no brains! She doesn't live well with Zijian, and doesn't take the initiative to build good relationships with his family. Ask her what she is thinking?

I have also been following Xia Zijian for a few years. With his age and background, he already has such a position and works diligently. Where else can you find someone as ideal as him?

What else is Xia Yingying dissatisfied with?

You warn her that if she ruins this marriage, I will not forgive her!"

Xia Minglei spoke rapidly to his wife without even taking a breath.

Hearing this, Qiao Jingyu was shocked again: "You mean, today is the hundred-day banquet for Zijian's younger son? Does our daughter know?"

Yingying didn't mention the child's 100-day party on the phone. She just said she missed her mother and even acted like a spoiled child and asked her to reimburse her travel expenses.

This kid had lied to her? How could he be so willful!

She was so happy to hear her daughter was coming home that she couldn't sleep well all night.

Qiao Jingyu didn't spend much time with her son-in-law Xia Zijian, so she couldn't say whether she liked him or not.

But the thought that he was getting married for the second time made her feel like a thorn in her heart. Whenever she went out and talked about this marriage, she felt short of breath.

Ye Yiling never shows up in their group of wives.

Her in-laws were from a good family, but she always felt that her daughter was wronged.

Fortunately, Xia Zijian did not have any children from his previous marriage.

As for their affairs between men, Qiao Jingyu was not very interested. Xia Minglei rarely came home, and he could not talk freely with his family about these work matters.

Only Ye Tianshui knows how important this young man is.

At home, he would also mention it once or twice in front of his son to encourage him.

But the person who said it was vague and unwilling to explain it clearly, so how could the listener really admit defeat?

How could Xia Guoxing's status in the army compare to that of the now popular Xia Minglei?

The family was right to think so, Xia Minglei's administrative level was indeed higher than Xia Guoxing's.

Besides, the military and politics are usually not in harmony. No matter how high the status of that old man was, he was not a relative!

The strange thing is that Xia Minglei only said that Ye Tianshui was the son adopted by Old Man Ye, but did not mention that he was Ye Yiling's brother and the uncle of Xia Zijian and his sister.

Perhaps, he didn't even figure out whether they were siblings?

Moreover, how could he really report Ye Tianshui's great achievements? No matter who helped him, these achievements must be his!

It's not that he is greedy, he just wants to gain a firm foothold in his new position. His outstanding political achievements are his foundation.

"Minglei, don't blame our daughter too much. This is Zijian's third child, right?

Isn't it just a hundred-day banquet? You're giving them face by going. Yingying and Zijian are having a quarrel, so why should she rush to reconcile and please her mother-in-law and sister-in-law?

Then won’t our Yingying be unable to hold her head up in their family for the rest of her life?”

She can scold her daughter, but she cannot mistreat her.

As Xia Minglei was promoted, Qiao Jingyu also took a crucial step forward and her behavior became different from before.

Especially since it felt so good to be praised by others, Xia Minglei's strict etiquette standards for "interpersonal relationships" were also relaxed a lot.

Xia Minglei didn't have many concerns about Old Man Ye. He didn't think that the old man would be so bored as to meddle in his political affairs.

But Xia Minglei did not dare to underestimate Ye Tianshui. The relationship between them was very delicate. With his influence and appeal in the business world, helping her was a boost for him.

On the contrary, if you offend him, you will suffer backlash.

As the old saying goes, success and failure are both due to Xiao He.

He could easily control the son-in-law of a deputy director of the Public Security Bureau. His relative was in the military and was so far away from him that he only needed to show respect to him and the other party could not control him.

But Ye Tianshui, who is neither an official nor a businessman, he dare not offend.

He made himself successful in the beginning, and now, it is also he who controls himself.

"Remember what I said, you can't spoil Yingying anymore, remind her to control her playfulness. She is 24 years old now, the right thing to do is to have a baby as soon as possible and tie Xia Zijian's heart to her.

While I'm still in this position, I'll find an opportunity to promote him to a regular position.

Yingying is young and ignorant, don't confuse the importance of things and ruin her life!"

Xia Minglei's tone became much more severe.

Qiao Jingyu was dissatisfied, but did not dare to refute.

Xia Yingying saw her mother waiting at the gate of the compound from the car. The driver also saw it and stopped the car immediately.

"Mom, I'm back, please get in the car." Xia Yingying pushed open the car door and shouted happily.

It was still five minutes from the gate to their villa, and Xia Yingying was too lazy to get out of the car and walk.
