Chapter 43 [New Year’s Eve Dinner, Weiming Company]
During the New Year, such words are just a symbol for me.
In ancient times, people's material living standards were generally not high, and entertainment life was extremely limited. Therefore, the annual Spring Festival became the only necessary means for people to legitimately improve material life and enjoy entertainment life.
However, in the 21st century, such festivals can not only greatly stimulate the sales of various merchants and make huge profits for them, but also for the people, they actually lose their original functions.
Early on, the Spring Festival, as the longest holiday of the year, still has its meritorious points. However, as May Day and the National Day began to become a seven-day holiday, the new tasks that were originally assigned to the Spring Festival disappeared. In the end, we could only pretend to be a false spring breeze on our faces and say that this is an annual reunion holiday. However, if we really want to reunite with our parents, sisters and brothers, why do we have to do the Spring Festival? Any holiday of the year can be done. So everyone understands that this is just an excuse, but they work tirelessly for this excuse.
Although I always despise such pretentious behavior, but the flow is like this, I can only follow closely and go upstream. However, although I live separately from my parents in two cities, Nanjing is my hometown. Therefore, during the Spring Festival, I was much less stressful than others. They returned to Nanjing from Jiangxi, saving me the hardships of boats and rides.
In fact, my father's school is really generous and very generous. At least in my opinion, my father has made no academic achievements except for bringing more than 100 graduated master's students to the school in his life. However, because a few of his students are now guarding the veins of some large enterprises, it directly led to the most funding in his father's name during the school anniversary after his father retired. This money was donated by his father's students, called funding for alma mater, but after all, it was a student trained by his father. So after accepting the donation, the school should give his father some benefits as usual. His father's choice was to ask for a house on Lushan.
My father was a typical literati. He had basically traveled through famous mountains and rivers in the country when he was young. In the end, like many historical literary masters, he also felt that the scenery of Mount Lu was the most beautiful among all the mountains, rivers and rivers. Therefore, when the literary masters of all generations left many calligraphy treasures, my father also chose to face these natural scenery in Mount Lu.
But during the Chinese New Year, he was going to come back, with his relatives and friends here, so he took advantage of this so-called family reunion festival to gather with relatives and friends. This was probably the only way for his father to get together with his old friends.
On the evening of New Year's Eve, I went to the Lion King's Mansion on Hunan Road with my parents. In the private room I booked, my aunt's family of five had been waiting for a long time.
After saying some polite words such as sorry for being late, the mother and aunt sat hand in hand and whispered, looking like they were definitely talking about my marriage. Women are like this, as if the marriage of their children is the issue they care most about.
It's no wonder that my cousin is only more than three months older than me, but she has been married for many years and has a cute three-year-old baby. When I came in just now, my nephew called each other at the orders of my cousin and brother-in-law.
Before the bench was hot, my aunt and mother's slander came to an end. The two of them looked up at me, "Xiaolei, you are not young anymore, are you..."
Sure enough, they were talking about personal questions about me.
I quickly interrupted them, "I'm working hard and working hard, but I just can't meet a suitable one. Don't think about helping me with blind dates or something. I've been impulsive since I was a child, but I can't guarantee that I'll say anything unpleasant to do or do anything inappropriate at the blind date. If you wipe your face at that time, that'll be bad."
I was so hilarious that I actually had a hidden threat. However, the other party was my closest relative. After hearing this, my aunt and mother could only look at each other. Finally, my mother said hatefully, "Xiaolei, you are cruel..." My mother's joke finally made the atmosphere come alive, which made me breathe a long sigh and have this New Year's Eve dinner peacefully.
"Xiao Lei, I heard you are planning to do something related to real estate?" After drinking a glass of wine with my uncle, my uncle asked me.
I glanced at my father and knew it must be what he said, so I nodded, "That's right, why, my uncle has a good introduction?"
My uncle put down his chopsticks, "Where do I have any introduction? I am an ordinary cadre and should retire after the New Year. I just asked you casually."
My father also spoke up to the topic at this time, "After returning to Nanjing a few days ago, I called Song Fang and he said you have resigned from Zhongshan Chemical. Didn't you say you wanted to study at Zhongshan Chemical for a while? Why did you leave so quickly?"
It seems that Song Fang did not tell his father about our fairy tale apartment, so I don’t want to say much, “Senior Brother Song has another company under his name, which is completely engaged in the real estate industry. I think it may be more suitable for me there. Senior Brother Song is also very helpful, so I asked me to do things in his company.”
My father nodded, "Well, but the real estate industry is always too deep, you should pay more attention to it. We don't have any business mind, and these aspects can't help you. However, I have a student who also works in real estate in Shanghai. If you have the chance, I will introduce you to you."
I pretended not to care too much and asked casually, "What's the name of that company?"
My father thought for a moment, "It seems to be called Weiming!"
Weiming?
These two words cast a stone in my heart, quickly rippling the ripples in my heart. Why is it Weiming again? This company seems to have been entangled with me since I started working in business.
The reason I think this way is because just two days ago, the matter I handed over to Qiao Anyi about the property company was in doubt. It was this company that had previously given 10 percentage points to undertake our decoration project, but also took over the property management of Fairy Tale Apartment. When Qiao Anyi reported this to me, I was already surprised.
But since I have learned about her relationship with Weiming from Wang Qian, this somewhat diluted my surprise at this matter.
However, when my father said that Weiming was his student company, I felt that this matter became more and more subtle.
