Chapter 438: Setting up a buffet to prepare for the trip to Beijing

This year, Xiao Baoer and her family did not go to Beijing to celebrate the New Year as originally planned. Instead, they planned to take care of matters at home and at the factory a few days before and after the New Year, and then go to Beijing a few days in advance when they reported to school after the New Year.

From now on, Beijing will be their permanent residence. There is a difference between living there permanently and living there occasionally. All things have to be arranged neatly and everything needed has to be purchased.

Moreover, Dabao and Erbao need to continue going to school, and Xiao Baoer and Shen Zhensheng also need to find a good school for them. Tuantuan and Manman will not be old enough to enter the first grade until half a year later, so Xiao Baoer plans to find a kindergarten for them to stay there for half a year so that they can try to integrate into collective life.

There were several college students in the family at once, and Shen's father happily informed all relatives and friends as well as the entire village that the couple would set up a buffet banquet in the village so that everyone could share in their family's happy event.

Shen Zhensheng and Shen Zhenjiang knew that Shen's parents felt proud and thought that they were holding a banquet to bring honor to the family, so they did not stop them and helped prepare for the banquet.

People in the village are now very envious of Shen's father and mother. Not only are their son, daughter-in-law and daughter promising, but even their ten-year-old grandson is very smart and better than many adults.

"Wife, let's start preparing for the banquet tomorrow. Let's invite our parents, brothers and sisters-in-law to come," Shen Zhensheng said.

"Okay, my parents were so excited when they heard that we all passed the exam a few days ago, so we have to invite them to celebrate in the village this time."

Before the two of them went to ask Xiao Baoer's family for help, they came to Shen's father and mother and asked them to look after the children while they would be back soon.

Shen's mother quickly stopped them, "You two don't have to go. Your father and I are not the kind of people who don't know etiquette. We have already invited them and they will come early tomorrow morning."

Xiao Baoer was still very happy in her heart, at least her family was respected by her husband's family.

"Mom, thank you and Dad. Zhensheng and I thought we were late."

"What is there to thank for? Without you, would our family be as prosperous as it is today? Your grandparents always said that marrying a good wife will bring prosperity to three generations. I think this is absolutely true," Shen's mother couldn't stop laughing.

This is a happy event for the Shen family, and the invited relatives and friends as well as people from the whole village have sent their blessings. When Shen's father and mother went to inform everyone, they said that they would not accept any gifts and that the guests could just come empty-handed to show their support.

Mr. and Mrs. Xiao have been walking with confidence recently. Now everyone in the surrounding area knows that the Xiao family has a daughter who was admitted to university, and the daughter's family also has a child who was admitted to university at the age of ten.

Whenever Xiao's father and mother went out, people asked them how their child could be so successful, which made them feel a little embarrassed.

"Dad, Mom, brother, sister-in-law, please come in and drink some water first. After drinking the water, we will go to my parents to talk," Shen Zhensheng walked into the guest room holding a kettle.

"Hey, stop busying yourself and sit down," said Xiao's father.

Dabao and Erbao brought their younger brothers and sisters to bring over the melon seeds, peanuts, candies, and snacks that their parents had prepared in advance, and then played with the children from their uncle's family.

"Brother, sister-in-law, Zhensheng and I have something to discuss with you," Xiao Baoer said to her brothers and sisters-in-law.

When Boss Xiao heard his younger sister being so polite, he thought something big had happened.

"Little sister, why are you so polite? Tell your brother what you have to say."

Xiao Baoer smiled and said, "Brother, you don't have to be so anxious. I want to discuss with you about letting my parents follow me to Beijing."

Shen Zhensheng went on to say, "Bao'er and I are going to study at Peking University. Dabao, Erbao, Tuantuan and Manman are also going to school. I'm afraid we won't be able to pick them up in time by then."

"Little sister, Zhensheng, we are relieved that your parents will follow you to Beijing, but the cost in a big city is high, and you have so many children. Is there enough room for you at home? I hope your parents don't become a burden to you."

Xiao Lao Da is the eldest brother. In addition to worrying about his parents, he is naturally also worried about whether his younger sister and brother-in-law will have too much pressure in life.

The Xiao brothers had never been to Beijing, so naturally they didn't know how big the house Xiao Baoer and Shen Zhensheng bought in Beijing was.

Several other brothers also had such concerns.

"Brother, don't worry. Zhensheng and I have long been prepared to live in Beijing. We bought a big house. My parents won't suffer if they follow us to Beijing, and we won't have any pressure in life," Xiao Baoer assured.

"Okay, little sister, we have no objection as long as parents are willing. You can take parents with you. We will go to see them when we are free," Boss Xiao expressed his opinion first, and the other brothers had no objection either.

Xiao Baoer smiled and said, "Brother, sister-in-law, you can continue your current business. Zhensheng and I have arranged your sales channels. It won't be long before Zhensheng and I expand our business in Beijing. When the time comes, we will ask all the brothers and sisters-in-law to come and help."

Shen Zhensheng and Xiao Baoer had already discussed it. Their parents would definitely be worried about the people at home, so the best arrangement would be to let their brother and sister-in-law move to Beijing as soon as possible.

Moreover, my brothers and sisters-in-law are all down-to-earth and hard-working people without so many evil thoughts. Xiao Baoer and Shen Zhensheng's business will not be small in the future, so it would be best to have reliable people from their own family to help them.

"Little sister, you don't have to worry about us. You and Zhensheng have helped us a lot in the past few years. We can live a good life. But as long as you and Zhensheng need help, just call home and your brothers and sisters-in-law will come to help you," said the eldest sister-in-law of the Xiao family.

Several sisters-in-law feel that they are lucky. Not only are their husbands hardworking and down-to-earth with good character, but their parents-in-law are not the kind of people who like to bully their daughters-in-law. Even the only sister-in-law is treated equally and tries her best to help her brothers and sisters-in-law.

After discussing the trip to Beijing, Xiao Baoer and Shen Zhensheng took the Xiao family to the yard of Shen's father and mother. Most of the relatives and friends of the family had arrived, and Shen's father and mother were busy entertaining everyone.

"Congratulations, in-laws," Father Xiao and Father Shen shook hands tightly.

Shen's father replied with a smile on his face, "My dear relatives, congratulations, you have raised a good daughter for our family."

The village was unusually lively during the days when the banquet was held. Even Aunt Shen's family came uninvited. Shen's father and mother did not chase them away. As long as they did not act strangely, they were regarded as guests and the Shen family would naturally welcome them.

A few days after the Chinese New Year, Xiao Baoer and Shen Zhensheng bought train tickets to Beijing. They also told Shen's father and mother and Xiao's father and mother the departure date and asked them to arrange all the household affairs for their brothers and sisters-in-law.

Shen Zhensheng also told the couple of the second wife that once they have made arrangements in Beijing and their business has developed, he will call them and ask them to go to Beijing to develop their business, and then bring the children of the second wife with them to Beijing.

Xiao Baoer specifically asked her parents on both sides to pack up the things they wanted to take in advance. She and Shen Zhensheng would find a truck to transport the things to Beijing in advance, otherwise it would be very troublesome to take the train.

The belongings of Shen Zhenjiang's family and Shen Xiuxiu's family of three were also placed on the truck and taken away together, making it much easier to take the children on the train.

"Mom, are we leaving tomorrow?"

"Yes, we'll leave tomorrow. We'll come back when we have time, but you'll have to go to school in Beijing," Xiao Baoer said to Tuan Tuan and Man Man.

"Great, we can live in a big house," the two little guys said excitedly.

Xiao Baoer also gave the house keys to Liu Ying, asking her to help look after the house and let her make the decision if anything happened.

As for the factory in the village, since the factory was nominally dependent on the county garment factory from the beginning, Xiao Baoer had also completed the handover with the garment factory. They would send professional people to manage the factory, but Xiao Baoer specifically wrote in the contract that employees could not be laid off at will, thus protecting the rights and interests of these workers to the greatest extent.
