Anchor with goods, the price of F2 is very reasonable, right?

Chapter 682 Things are changing

"Today is your birthday, but it's also my day of suffering. After you all left, I was alone in my room thinking about how painful it was for me to give birth to you."

Qin Tongtong wiped away her tears.

"Don't dwell on the past. We're living such a good life now, we need to look forward."

“You’re right, that’s why I put all these dresses out. Tonight I’m going to make a good impression and let all my relatives and friends see how prosperous our family is now.”

She wiped away her tears and asked Qin Tongtong again, "How did you suddenly become the general manager? Is it confirmed?"

"Yes, I'm 100% sure."

Wang Lan was still somewhat incredulous: "What about your old nemesis? Why didn't he get the position?"

"Then you'll have to ask your good son-in-law!" Qin Tongtong directly threw the topic to Wang Yang.

"Mom, it's like this. Actually, I bought this company a long time ago, but I just didn't tell you. On Qin Tongtong's birthday, I planned to give her a surprise, so I gave her the position of general manager."

Upon hearing this, Wang Lan's hands began to tremble.

"What? What did you say?"

"I told them I'd bought the company..."

"Wang Yang, you're actually the boss of a company, and Qin Tongtong's boss at that? How is this possible?"

Wang Lan is now starting to ramble incoherently.

Seeing his appearance, Wang Yang and Qin Tongtong were both annoyed and amused.

"Mom, please don't do this. Actually, I just wanted to give you a surprise, mainly for Qin Tongtong. After all, it's her birthday today. Over the years, I haven't done anything for you, so I wanted to give her a big gift on her birthday."

Wang Yang's words only made things worse; they made Wang Lan cry even harder. She never imagined that the son-in-law whom everyone looked down upon had become the pride of the whole family.

"Wang Yang, I am so grateful to you. You know, Qin Tongtong has always dreamed of becoming a general manager. Thank you for helping her realize that dream."

"It's okay, we're all family."

After saying this, Wang Lin turned to look at Qin Tongtong.

“I told you long ago, you'll regret it if you don't listen to your elders. I told you back then that a woman's marriage is the most important thing; with marriage, you have everything. Look at you now, you married a good husband and have a successful career, right?”

Qin Tongtong was speechless; she hadn't expected her mother to bring this up again.

Her mother insisted that she marry a rich second-generation man, saying that it would improve the family's living conditions and also help her career advance.

But she has always been independent and wanted to make a name for herself with her own hands. But now it seems that the world she has created was given to her by Wang Yang.

"Please don't say that. Qin Tongtong is truly capable. If she weren't, I wouldn't dare give her the general manager position. Otherwise, so many people in the company would be relying on her for their livelihood!"

"Of course, I know my daughter is capable. But these days, if you want to climb up the corporate ladder, you can't do it without some connections."

Wang Yang nodded in agreement. If even someone like Wang Lan, who had never worked a regular job, understood this principle, then it must be true.

"Mom, hurry up and get ready, we need to go to the restaurant!"

"Oh no, my makeup is going to run! I have to go check it right away."

Qin Tongtong grabbed her arm: "Mom, your makeup is waterproof, it won't smudge. Hurry up and change your dress, we're the hosts, it wouldn't be good if we were late."

"Then please help me decide which dress looks best. I'm a little undecided. I think I'll look good in any of them today."

Wang Yang couldn't help but burst out laughing.

"Mom, you look good in anything, just pick one. Anyway, you and Qin Tongtong will be the center of attention tonight."

“My son-in-law knows how to talk. I’ll wear this bright red one then!”

……

The three of them arrived at the restaurant half an hour early, but to their surprise, almost half the other people had already arrived.

"I told you to leave earlier, look everyone's already here!"

"How was I supposed to know they'd be so enthusiastic? Looks like it's because our family's rich now!"

Qin Tongtong nudged her mother quietly: "Mom, please don't keep saying that. It's not good if other people hear it."

"I know, I'll just talk about it with my family. Don't worry, I won't say anything."

As soon as the three of them arrived, everyone stood up to congratulate Qin Tongtong.

"Qin Tongtong, happy birthday! I've already bought your gift, it's all there!"

"Thank you, uncle!"

"Tongtong, happy birthday from your auntie! May you grow more and more beautiful..."

"Thank you, Xuanxuan! You're so cute, and you've grown taller!"

After a while, the three of them sat down in the middle.

Xiaochun also sat down at their table.

"You're 29 years old, this is the first time you've had such a grand entrance, isn't it?" Xiaochun teased her as soon as she arrived.

"Why are you still like this? You never hold back when you talk. I advise you to give me some face today, it's my birthday."

"I was just saying, I didn't do anything to you. Alright, alright, since it's your birthday today, I'll give you a set of cards."

As she spoke, Xiaochun took something out of her bag. Qin Tongtong took it and opened it. Inside were shopping cards for various beauty salons.

"You're so generous, you're willing to give all of this to me?"

"I didn't originally intend to be generous, but as you know, your family is doing well now. If I want to do big business in the future, I'll still need to rely on you!"

Qin Tongtong glared at her: "Don't talk nonsense all day long."

As the two were chatting, Qin Tongtong's third uncle suddenly arrived with his son.

"Tongtong, you haven't seen Xiaoyang for many years, have you?"

Qin Tongtong looked up and said, "It seems so. I heard that Xiaoyang went to study in another city. Has he graduated and come back now?"

"Yes, I've been back for quite a while now. It's hard to find a job outside, so I wanted to come back and look for one, but I'm facing setbacks everywhere."

Xiao Yang, who was standing next to him, lowered his head.

“Young people these days are probably quite picky. Let’s look around here for a while longer. We should be able to find something.” Hearing her third uncle’s words, Wang Lan knew that she was definitely going to have to ask them for help finding a job.

"Tongtong, you really married the right person! Wang Yang is doing well now, running such a big clinic. You can finally relax and enjoy your retirement at home!"...

Wang Lan was displeased when her third uncle suddenly made that remark.

"Our Tongtong has become a general manager!"

They hadn't originally planned to tell anyone about it, since if they did, those people would probably try to curry favor with them. But Wang Lan just couldn't keep a secret.

Upon hearing this, everyone immediately perked up.

"What? Tongtong actually became the general manager? Is this true?"

Everyone turned their attention to Wang Yang and Qin Tongtong.

"Yes, this was just announced. I only found out this morning." Qin Tongtong deliberately didn't mention that Wang Yang was the boss, otherwise, even more people would probably come to her for help.

"That's wonderful! Your family's luck has really turned around; all the good things have happened to you!"

More people gathered around, toasting Wang Yang and Qin Tongtong. Seeing this lively scene, Wang Lan was extremely pleased with herself.

Upon hearing that Qin Tongtong had become the general manager, her third uncle's eyes lit up and he immediately said:

"Tongtong, look how successful you are now, but your younger brother still can't find a job. Why don't you arrange a job for him?"

Upon hearing this, Qin Tongtong subconsciously frowned. She had only just become the general manager, and she was already being asked to assign work to others; she wasn't the type to agree to things so easily.

"Third Uncle, as you know, I just became the general manager. Before, I was just an ordinary employee, and I haven't even settled into my position yet. Besides, Xiaoyang's major isn't really related to our company."

Wang Yang suddenly interjected, "Sister Tongtong, I studied design. Does your company need any?"

“Our company does have a design department, but I’m not in charge of that. Besides, if you’re a newcomer and just jump in, you’ll only be able to start as an intern.”

Seeing Qin Tongtong repeatedly decline, Uncle San suddenly got angry.

"Now that you're all grown up and the general manager, you don't care about the fate of our family anymore. Forget it, Xiaoyang, let's go, let's not talk about this anymore!"

He spoke very loudly, and all the relatives looked over.

"Tongtong, please find Xiaoyang a job. You don't know, he's been staying home all this time since he came back, with nothing to do..."

"Yes, Tongtong, you're a general manager now, so please lend a hand if you can!"

"We've helped you a lot in the past, and now that you're successful, you have to repay us!"

Upon hearing this, Wang Lan was furious. When her family was down on their luck, others only mocked and ridiculed them; only Xiao Chun's family was willing to help them.

Qin Tongtong really wanted to refuse. She couldn't arrange a good job for Xiaoyang, but she was afraid that her relatives would gossip behind her back.

Unexpectedly, Wang Yang spoke up at this moment: "Third Uncle, how about this, let Xiao Yang come work in my shop."

“But you run a clinic, which doesn’t seem to be related to his profession.”

Wang Yang chuckled: "What does that matter? Ask Xiao Yang how many graduates are now finding jobs that don't match their majors."

Xiao Yang nodded: "Brother Wang Yang is right. Many of our classmates found jobs that had nothing to do with their university majors after graduation. But your place is a clinic, after all, and I don't know anything about it."

“It’s okay, working at the clinic is just a temporary thing. You can come and help out at my clinic first, do some simple work, at least you can learn some skills and won’t be idle at home.”

Seeing that Xiaoyang was still hesitant, Wang Yang continued, "I know you want to go to a big company. It's safer to introduce you after your sister Tongtong has established herself in the company."

"As you all know, the position of general manager is highly competitive. Although she has now taken the position, there are still many people eyeing her. If she starts to place relatives in the company as soon as she takes office, it will be easy for others to find fault with her."

After Wang Yang explained, the relatives all nodded in agreement: "That's right, Wang Yang makes sense. Third Uncle, you should let Xiao Yang go to the clinic with Wang Yang. At least the clinic belongs to Wang Yang!"

"You can't afford to delay Tongtong's work!"

Since everyone said so, Uncle San had no objections.

"Alright then, let Xiao Yang go to the clinic with you. Wang Yang, thank you so much. Please take good care of him; he's rather introverted and doesn't like to talk much."

"No problem, Uncle, don't worry, I will keep a close eye on him."

After the birthday party ended, Wang Lan started throwing a tantrum while sitting in the car.

“These people, now that our family is successful, all they know is to fawn over us and even want us to find them jobs. Do you know what your uncle just said?”

"What did you say?" Qin Tongtong raised her hand to rub her slightly swollen temples and asked.

"He actually asked you to arrange for his daughter to be the deputy general manager of your company."

Upon hearing this, Wang Yang, who was driving, and Qin Tongtong, who was sitting next to him, couldn't help but burst out laughing.

"He was probably drunk to say such outrageous things. He knows exactly what's going on at the company."

"Exactly! My daughter just became the general manager, and he already wants her to be the deputy general manager. Does he think this company is our family's property?"

At this point, Qin Tongtong couldn't help but complain about Wang Lan.

"Mom, what did I tell you at home? I told you not to tell them that I've become the general manager. If this gets out, there will definitely be a lot of trouble."

"It's because they just said you were unemployed at home, and I couldn't help but blurt it out. Besides, I didn't say that the company belongs to Wang Yang."

Wang Yang was secretly relieved that his mother hadn't told anyone about it. If she had, all the relatives would probably be scrambling to get into the company.

"Mom, since you've already said that Qin Tongtong is the general manager, then you absolutely can't tell them that I'm the company owner anymore. You saw the attitude they had just displayed."

Wang Lan nodded as if she understood: "Now I understand why rich people have to be low-key. Being too high-profile will always attract jealousy from others. Look just now, when you said you wouldn't help Xiao Yang, Uncle Li's face immediately changed."

"Wang Yang, why did you let Xiao Yang go to the clinic with you? What he studied has nothing to do with the clinic."

"It's alright. He'll just be helping out at the clinic, checking on the herbs. There won't be any major problems. The main issue is that they were giving Qin Tongtong a hard time earlier."

Qin Tongtong had just realized that Wang Yang only agreed to let Xiao Yang go to the clinic because he didn't want to put her in a difficult position, since his clinic didn't need someone like Xiao Yang at all.

“Wang Yang, you don’t need to do this. I’m worried that he’ll mess things up at the clinic.”

"No, he's just a college student, what could he possibly mess up? Don't worry, I'll keep a close eye on him, and besides, your cousin seems pretty well-behaved."

Qin Tongtong pouted. She didn't know if her cousin was well-behaved or not. Anyway, these kids had two completely different faces in front of their parents and outsiders.

"But you know, it really feels good to be rich. Before, when we went to other people's birthday parties, we would sit in the corner, afraid that others would see us. Now, we sit in the middle, waiting for others to fawn over us. It feels pretty good."

Wang Yang said with a smile, "Mom, one experience is enough. Don't be so flamboyant in the future, lest you attract jealousy."
