Chapter 186 The nagging old mother

"Dad, Mom, I'm back!"

In a high-end residential area next to the Dazhong Temple, Tang Zifeng took out his key and opened the door of a unit and shouted loudly into the room.

"Zifeng is back!"

Mother Xu Guixiang ran out of the bedroom and shouted happily. She hurriedly got Tang Zifeng's slippers and took the light luggage in his hand. At the same time, she complained angrily: "Why didn't you call back in advance? There is nothing to eat at home. By the way, you Dad went to the company and won’t be back at noon.”

Tang Zifeng smiled and said: "I just deliberately didn't call back so that I could check what you and dad are eating. Mom, our family is considered rich now. You and dad should not be too frugal. Even if my son and I Yan is not at home, so you should eat better."

"We usually eat well!" Xu Guixiang said, "Your dad is responsible for buying vegetables. He buys either meat or fish every day. He buys at least one chicken to eat every week. You said this is not a New Year or a festival, so why are you eating chicken?" "

"Ha!" Tang Zifeng said with a smile, "Eating one chicken a week is nothing. Dad likes to eat, so just buy it for him. The money the company makes in one day is enough for you two to buy chicken every day."

"How come your dad and I are two elders?" Xu Guixiang glared at Tang Zifeng and said unhappily.

Children are born early in rural areas. When Tang Zifeng was born, his father Tang Lin was only 20 years old, and his mother Xu Guixiang was 19 years old. Nowadays, Tang Zifeng is 25 years old, Tang Lin is 45 years old, and Xu Guixiang is 44 years old. According to the standards of colleges and universities, they are both eligible to apply for the "Young Teacher Award". It is indeed a bit unpleasant to be called "the second elder".

When she was in the countryside, Xu Guixiang didn't care if others said she was old. There were already many women of her own age who had grandchildren. But since arriving in the capital, Xu Guixiang's ideas have changed dramatically. She found that the people around her who were much older than her were still dressing up in flashy clothes and pretending to be pink newcomers everywhere.

Women are all a bit competitive. When Xu Guixiang noticed that there were differences in dress and temperament between herself and the city dwellers around her, she began to deliberately change herself. When Tang Zifeng returned to the capital a few times to visit relatives, he noticed that his mother was trying hard to learn how city people dressed, but due to the lack of guidance from famous teachers, she ended up looking rather nondescript. So under the guise of Tang Ziyan, he invited Xiao Wenjun to serve as Xu Guixiang's clothing consultant.

Xiao Wenjun is a son of a company and belongs to the category of urbanites. Chutian No. 17 is a military-industrial unit. Its personnel come from all over the world, and there are also many returnees. The lifestyle is quite fashionable. Xiao Wenjun has been surrounded by his mother since he was a child, and he has some ideas on how middle-aged women should dress.

With her guidance and the support of Tang Zifeng, who was not short of money, Xu Guixiang changed all her clothes. She even owned two low-key and luxurious imported brand-name bags, and went out to meet people in college. Those intellectual women are no different. Of course, this is under the premise that she has not spoken. Her standard Dongye accent cannot be changed in three or two days.

In Tang Zifeng's humble opinion, dad Tang Lin should also rebrand himself. A man in his 40s can still look quite attractive when dressed up. When he first talked about this plan to Xu Guixiang, Xu Guixiang was in agreement. The only fault was that Tang Zifeng was rude and said, "With dad's appearance, it's okay to find a 20-year-old girl dressed up." , Xu Guixiang's face changed drastically when she heard this, and she immediately tore up the plan she had made and threw it into the trash can.

Therefore, Tang Lin had no choice but to maintain his original appearance in the countryside. At best, he bought an unseemly suit so that he would not be mistaken for an external cleaner by the company's new employees when he went to work.

"Zifeng, the sales statistics of the last "May 3rd" are out. The company's profit is more than 37 million yuan! You said, what you and Zijie did is not illegal, right?"

Xu Guixiang took some frozen dumplings from the refrigerator and went into the kitchen. While cooking dumplings for Tang Zifeng, she chatted with Tang Zifeng.

According to the design of Tang Zifeng and Wang Zijie, one of Tang Lin and Wang Zijie's father, Wang Chongshou, served as the company's chairman and deputy general manager, and the other served as the general manager and vice chairman. In fact, it was cooperative management. As for the mothers of Xu Guixiang and Wang Zijie, they are in charge of the company's logistics and administration, and are also among the company's senior executives.

Xu Guixiang was originally a rural woman, nominally a junior high school graduate, but her skills were limited to four arithmetic operations, and she had never even learned to solve equations. After working in the company, Xu Guixiang studied hard to help her son keep the business. Now she also understands some common sense in financial accounting. Talking about the company's profits is not unfamiliar to her.

When the "four elders" of the Tang and Wang families first arrived in the capital, they were all frightened into cold sweats when they heard Tang Zifeng and Wang Zijie introduce the company's business operations. They originally knew that their son had opened a company in the capital and made some money, but they never imagined that the company's profits were in the tens of millions. You know, they can only earn three to four thousand yuan a year by farming in the countryside, while their sons can earn thirty to forty million yuan.

The first thought of the four old people was whether their son had done something illegal. After repeated confirmations and personal participation in the management and operation of the company for a period of time, they finally felt a little relieved. At this time, Xu Guixiang's question to Tang Zifeng was just the habitual nagging of an old mother, and the element of worry in it was not even as much as the element of pride.

"What's this profit?" Tang Zifeng said lightly, "In more than ten years, if you want to buy a house like the one we live in for more than 30 million yuan, you may not be able to buy it. Let's stock up on more than ten or two dollars later. Ten apartments, from now on you two will be able to collect rent without mercy."

"What kind of house are you hoarding?" Xu Guixiang got very angry when talking about the house. "We built a new house at home, and we didn't live there for a few days before we moved to the capital. I had known earlier that I would buy a house in the capital. , why are we still building a house in our hometown?"

"Leave it alone, it will be useful when you go back to the countryside for vacation in the future, right?" Tang Zifeng said, "But it is necessary to buy a few more houses in the capital. The price is cheap now, and there is no purchase limit. People who want to buy houses in the future There are too many, and the rule is that one family can only buy two units, and outsiders can’t buy them.”

Xu Guixiang obviously had no interest in this kind of prophecy. She looked at Tang Zifeng and said, "It doesn't matter whether you buy a house or not. How is your relationship with Wen Jun? The family is so big. If you really want to get married, there is no need to move out. Right? If you live at home, we can also take care of your children."

"You and my dad have already discussed taking turns taking your grandson to middle school, right?" Tang Zifeng said with a smile, "This is nothing to say. Xiao Wenjun is now a doctor of Tsinghua University, and I am from a factory in Dongye. You guys with pipe wrenches, you don’t even have to think about whether someone can like me, but you can actually think of getting married. Isn’t this too advanced?”

Xu Guixiang knew that her son had contracted the habit of talking nonsense after he went to the city to study. She did not criticize her, but said to herself: "I think this girl is good. She has a high degree of education and is pretty. She is a high-class person in the family." Intellectual and educated. You see, I am a rural woman, and she does not dislike me..."

"How dare she!" Tang Zifeng immediately changed his face and said arrogantly, "You rebelled against her and dared to look down on my mother. It made me so angry that I even dealt with her father."

"What are you talking about!" Xu Guixiang immediately slapped her son on the back of Tang Zifeng's head, "Don't you say that Wenjun's father is the chief engineer of some military industrial unit? How dare you say such nonsense?"

"Is the chief engineer breaking up?" Tang Zifeng said, "Lao Xiao and his wife bought a big house in Wulang City, and I used the money I helped his daughter earn. He doesn't forget the well digger, so he won't give him a daughter as a gift. Give it to me, does it make sense?"

"So, you and Wenjun have established a relationship?" Xu Guixiang's eyes lit up.

"No!" Tang Zifeng categorically denied, "She and I just have a cooperative relationship, Party A and Party B, do you understand?"

"Party A and Party B, let me tell you, you are not allowed to go around with flowers and plants. Whoever decides is who you want to be. You can't have two boats. Do you understand? Even though our family has some money now, we still have to treat other girls. Be responsible. When you are not in the capital, Wenjun will sometimes call us and ask if we have any troubles in our lives. If we have any troubles, just tell her, you are welcome. Just tell us, if people are not interested in you , will you do this?" Xu Guixiang said.

"Is there such a thing?" Tang Zifeng was a little surprised, thought for a moment, and then said: "This girl has always been an enthusiastic person. After staying at my place for a few days, she became very familiar with my little nanny, and now she is still I often send her reference materials. I think it may be because I told her to take care of you when I left the capital, so she calls you from time to time, just to complete a task."

Xu Guixiang was very dissatisfied with her son's explanation, but she also knew that some things could not be forced. Maybe the young people don’t want the old people to know about the things that happen between them...

Hey, why do you think you are an old man? I'm obviously not old, okay?

"Zifeng, when you return to the capital this time, how many days can you stay?"

Xu Guixiang took out the cooked dumplings and handed them to Tang Zifeng. Then she and Tang Zifeng returned to the restaurant. She watched Tang Zifeng sit down to eat the dumplings and asked while standing aside.

Tang Zifeng ate dumplings and said vaguely: "Two or three days, I still have some things to do here."

Xu Guixiang said: "Then will you go to Wen Jun?"

Tang Zifeng said: "Of course I have to find..., Mom, don't look at me like this. I went to find her. It had nothing to do with finding a partner. I asked her to design a new product for us, and she called me and said There are still some things that I don’t quite understand, and I went to discuss new product design with her.”

"Yeah, we can discuss anything." Xu Guixiang said, "When are you going to go, tell me in advance, I will cook something delicious, and you can bring it to her..."
