Chapter 424: Back home, the younger son-in-law is shocked, and the big brother collapses

   The newlyweds return home on the third day of marriage. This is a traditional wedding custom in most areas of our country.

However, according to the wedding customs in Shuangwang realm, whether it is in this era or in later generations, newlyweds will return home on the second day of the Lunar New Year of the following year.

The third day after marriage has a special name in the Shuangwang realm. In Hakka dialect, it is called "La (second tone) Chao (zhāo. This "La Chao" is from the woman's natal family. The groom's family visits his married daughter.

At this time, the meal served by the groom’s family to the bride’s family must be exactly the same as the meal served on the wedding day.

The reason for this rule is that when a daughter is married in the Shuangwang realm, parents generally do not attend their daughter's wedding. Therefore, when they come to the "La Chao", in order to show their importance, the groom will serve them with wedding banquet meals. The woman’s natal family.

Then, there is another rule: the woman’s mother-in-law’s family comes to visit her. If the woman goes back to her mother-in-law’s house with her mother-in-law’s family that day, she must return to her husband’s house three days later. In the words here, it is “three dynasties and three dynasties”.

If the woman does not go back to her natal home with her natal family that day, but returns in a few days, then she can live in her natal home as long as she wants.

 Such a marriage custom is relatively rare.

In his previous life, Deng Shirong had always followed this custom. When his two daughters got married, he, as a father, did not attend his daughter's wedding. However, after his rebirth, he no longer used rigid methods in this regard, but learned how to be flexible.

 For example, he attended the weddings of his two daughters.

Since everyone attended the wedding, Deng Shirong no longer abides by this "La Chao" custom.

Therefore, when his youngest daughter gets married this time, Deng Shirong plans to follow the customs of the groom's side and not go to the "La Chao", lest the groom's family has to invite a chef to cook the same dishes to entertain them.

According to the customs of the man's side, Deng Shirong must be prepared to receive his little daughter and son-in-law when the younger daughter returns home on the third day after her wedding.

Guangzhou.

Zhou Haidong and Deng Yunzhu took the bus to Nanning with large and small bags of gifts.

After Deng Yunzhu put the gifts away, she said: "It's really inconvenient to take a bus. You can take time to learn to drive later. My dad bought cars for all four of us brothers and sisters. My Santana has been parked in Nanning. You Once you learn it, you can drive the car back, and then it will be more convenient to go out and drive by yourself.”

Zhou Haidong now knows about his wife's strong financial resources. He heard that she also owns a Santana worth 200,000 yuan. There is nothing surprising. He nodded and said: "Okay, I will take time to learn when I get back. Dad will buy you a car." , then you should be able to drive it, right?"

Deng Yunzhu said: "Of course I can drive it, but my dad doesn't allow me to drive it."

Zhou Haidong was surprised and said: "This is a bit strange. Since your dad bought you a car and you learned to drive, why are you not allowed to drive?"

Deng Yunzhu explained: "My dad cares about me. The world is very chaotic now. In my dad's words, there are car robbers and road robbers everywhere. Even in the city, there is no shortage of bold robbers. If I Tian drove a car worth 200,000 yuan out, and sooner or later he would be targeted by those brutal robbers.

If you are just asking for money, that's okay, but you are afraid of encountering that kind of vicious robbery and murderer. Not only will your money be robbed, but your life safety will not be guaranteed. There are countless lives on the hands of such a person. After aiming at the target, It's very possible to just shoot, which is scary to think about. "

Zhou Haidong nodded and said: "What dad said does make sense, but isn't it a waste to spend so much money to buy a car and not drive it?"

Deng Yunzhu smiled and said: "Who can tell me, my dad hired a platoon of veterans to protect our safety. We are basically followed by security personnel when we go out. They are not only our bodyguards, but also our drivers. Just tell them where you want to go and they will arrange it.”

Zhou Haidong was filled with emotion after hearing this. The conditions of their Zhou family were pretty good, but compared with his father-in-law's family, the difference was really huge.

After getting married, his wife told him that the Wuyue Square in Nanning that they had visited was built on land bought by his father-in-law.

The super supermarket on the first floor of Wuyue Plaza is my uncle's property. The hot pot restaurant on the second floor is his wife's property. The home appliance store on the third floor is my fourth brother-in-law's property. The fourth floor is currently idle, and the fifth floor is The place where my father-in-law's family lives.

 When Zhou Haidong first heard the news, he was naturally shocked for a long time.

At the same time, he also understood why his wife’s hot pot restaurant is so profitable. A hot pot restaurant with such a large area uses its own store, saving a lot of rent. Naturally, the profit is not comparable to that of a business that rents a store. of.

 …

Five p.m.

 Nanning Wuyue Square.

Zhou Haidong carried large and small bags of gifts and followed his wife to the mansion on the fifth floor. After entering, even though he was mentally prepared, he was still stunned by the antique decoration in front of him.

It wasn't until his wife started greeting the family that Zhou Haidong came back to his senses and greeted them one by one.

Deng Shirong smiled and said: "Azhu, you put your luggage away first. Haidong, you and the elder brother and the others have a cup of tea. I will cook a few more dishes and then we can start dinner."

 “Okay, Dad.”

Zhou Haidong and Deng Yunzhu responded together.

Immediately, Deng Yunzhu took their luggage back to the bedroom where she had been living, while Zhou Haidong sat in the huge living room, drinking tea with his uncle and the others.

Here, I have to mention some taboos about returning home. In many places, newlyweds are actually not allowed to have **** if they return home.

 According to some local legends, if newlyweds have **** in their natal family, their natal family's fortune will decline.

 Because of the ancient concept in our country, in all matters between men and women, it is believed that the woman suffers.

 Out of this consideration, when the bride and groom live together in their natal family, the bride's family always feels a little psychologically depressed. Also, if your natal family and your husband’s family are not of the same bloodline, how can you provide a place for your husband’s family to continue the family lineage in your natal family’s home?

 If she really got pregnant in her natal family, wouldn’t she have brought her natal family’s “people power” and “financial status” to her husband’s family?

Therefore, due to various considerations, in many places there is a taboo that young couples cannot have **** in their natal family. It was not until later generations that this taboo gradually faded away. However, many places still hold this concept and do not allow newlyweds to have **** in their natal family.

Naturally, there are no such rules in the Shuangwang Realm. After all, newlyweds here only have "La Chao" and no return. The return will be on the second day of the Lunar New Year next year. By then, they will have been married for such a long time, and the child will probably have been pregnant for a long time. Once you get married, there will naturally be no taboos in this regard.

And now Deng Yunzhu returns home on the third day after her wedding. Deng Shirong has experienced many things in his two lives, so he naturally doesn't care about this taboo.

 …

Zhou Haidong, his uncle and others drank tea and chatted for a while, and then his father-in-law announced that dinner was ready.

After eating the food cooked by his father-in-law, Zhou Haidong realized that what his wife said was not an exaggeration at all. His father-in-law's cooking skills were really no worse than those of those chefs, especially the cooking of various seafood. .

Zhou Haidong praised while eating: "Dad, your cooking skills are really amazing, especially this steamed mudworm, it is the most delicious dish I have ever eaten in my life."

Deng Yunzhu glanced at her husband and said with a smile: "You know your stuff, this steamed mudworm is one of my dad's specialties. Everyone who has eaten it will praise it."

Deng Shirong smiled and said, “If it’s delicious, eat more.”

Zhou Haidong was naturally not polite. He cooked three large bowls of rice for this meal, focusing on a health bar.

As for wine, he is not the kind of man who doesn’t drink alcohol, and such a person is not suitable for officialdom. He knows that drinking will have a certain impact on the health of his children in the future. Now that he is married, he will have his own children at any time. Naturally, you have to exercise some restraint in this regard.

 When my wife becomes pregnant in the future, there will be no problem if she drinks it again.

This meal without alcohol is naturally quick to eat.

After dinner, Deng Shirong said: "Azhu, please show Haidong around!"

Zhou Haidong has long been curious about his father-in-law's house. When his father-in-law said this, he followed suit and said, "Dad, let me take a look first. The decoration of this house is really beautiful."

 Deng Yunzhu took him around to visit.

The level of luxury of this mansion of just over 3,000 square meters is really beyond the imagination of ordinary people. Living in a big city like Guangzhou, Zhou Haidong has seen the world, but he was still shocked by this house in his father-in-law's house. .

In fact, it is understandable that in the big cities of later generations, most people live in houses with an area of ​​more than 90 square meters to about 120 square meters, and those large flats with an area of ​​about 300 square meters are a status symbol of the rich. .

And the area of ​​Deng Shirong's mansion is ten times that of many large single-story mansions in later generations. What is this concept? Who can remain indifferent after seeing a mansion of this level for the first time?

What's more, the decoration of this super mansion is really awesome. The antique artistic conception makes people inside feel like they have returned to ancient times. Perhaps in the eyes of some rural people with little culture, such decoration is not as good as modern decoration. It comes as a shock, but for people with a little bit of cultural background, this kind of decoration is simply amazing.

Zhou Haidong is, after all, a top student who graduated from a key university. He can fully understand the essence of this decoration, which makes him really full of praise.

After the visit, Zhou Haidong really admired his father-in-law. Not only was he rich, he also had taste that few others could match.

“Azhu, how much did such a beautiful decoration cost?” Zhou Haidong couldn’t help but ask.

Deng Yunzhu said: "I heard from my dad that the entire building was renovated at the same time. From buying the land to building the building and then decorating it, it probably cost tens of millions in total!"

Zhou Haidong took a breath of air-conditioning when he heard this. The more he knew about his wife's natal family, the more unfathomable it became. After a while, he sighed with emotion: "Honey, it seems those people in our village are right. I can marry You are really the smoke coming out of our Zhou family’s ancestral grave.”

Deng Yunzhu said with an arrogant look: "That's right, just enjoy it secretly!"

 …

Zhou Haidong and Deng Yunzhu only stayed in Nanning for one night, and took the bus back to Guangzhou the next day.

It's not that they don't want to stay a few more days, the main reason is that Zhou Haidong is a public employee and cannot ask for leave all the time. This will leave a bad impression on the superiors.

On the way back in the car, Deng Yunzhu couldn't help but said: "You really don't have much freedom in your job. Let's see in two years. If you can't be promoted, you might as well resign and start a business with me. Zhou Haidong nodded and said, "Okay, this job is really not interesting. If I can't get promoted, I will resign and go into business with you."

Although his job is the dream of countless people in this era, Zhou Haidong has always been the pride of their Zhou family. After all, he is a full-time cadre at such a young age and has graduated from a key university. He has great hopes for his career in the future. surpassing his father.

 Previously, he had never thought of resigning.

But as the saying goes, Zhou Haidong's idea was completely changed after he married Deng Yunzhu. His coveted job was really not worth mentioning in the face of a big business with an annual income of one million.

 …

Nanning Architectural Design Institute.

 Deng Shirong is looking at the design renderings of the hospital. The purpose of each building is marked on it, and it is divided into two parts. One part is for current construction, and the other part will be built when it is upgraded to a tertiary hospital.

It can be said to be clear at a glance.

Deng Shirong said with satisfaction: "Dean Huang, you have worked hard. I am very satisfied with this design."

Dean Huang smiled and said: "Boss Deng, as long as you are satisfied. You are the largest customer of our architectural design institute. Naturally, we will go all out to do our best for your entrustment."

Deng Shirong put the renderings on the table and said, "Dean Huang, in addition to looking at the renderings this time, I also want to trouble your hospital to add another design."

 Dean Huang asked: “What design should be added?”

 “Increase the design of expert villas.”

Deng Shirong said: "We can provide housing subsidies for other medical staff and let them rent their own houses. In this way, after our Naye Deng's villa complex is built and moved in, those old houses can be rented out to these medical staff. It won't be wasted there.

And in this way, everyone can rent a house according to their own situation. If you want to live comfortably, you can spend more money to rent a better house. If you want to save money, you can also rent some old houses together with other colleagues. In short, it is like Just like going to a restaurant to eat, it's up to you to be generous and frugal.

But those more famous experts may not be willing to work in rural areas like ours, so we must not only give them the highest wages, but also provide them with the most comfortable living conditions, so as to attract those experts to work in our hospitals . "

Dean Huang praised: "Boss Deng, you are very thoughtful. It is indeed very necessary to build villas for experts. I don't know how many villas we need to build?"

Deng Shirong said: "Build twenty or thirty villas first. It should be enough for the time being. If it is not enough, it will not be too late to add more."

Dean Huang nodded and said: "No problem. Boss Deng, what do you want to build this expert villa into? Is it an independent villa?"

Deng Shirong said: "Well, let's build an independent villa!"

 …

 For the next time, Deng Shirong, who had nothing to do, wandered around looking for a partner for his niece.

If Deng Shirong was the kind of matchmaker in later generations who only wanted to make money as a matchmaker, then he would have asked his niece to kiss him countless times. But he is not the kind of professional matchmaker who only wants to make money, and now he is doing it for his own niece. When looking for a partner, you must find a truly suitable partner before arranging a meeting between the two parties.

However, it is really not easy to find someone who fully meets the requirements.

Not to mention the distance, let’s talk about the second son’s Peking University alumnus, Song Yu, who is already 30 years old this year, but still can’t find a suitable partner for her. Her parents don’t know how anxious they are, but this kind of thing can’t happen again. There was no point in being anxious. It was impossible for Deng Shirong to arrange a blind date for her before finding someone who was truly suitable for her.

While Deng Shirong was running around, time came to late December without him noticing.

 Then the eyes of the whole world were focused on Big Brother.

 On December 21, the signing of a certain declaration caused the bipolar pattern that had existed for more than 40 years after the war to collapse.

 On December 25, Big Brother, which had dominated the world for decades and was the only one that could compete with the United States, collapsed.

 At this moment, the world was shaken.

Especially for those with the surname She, it was really a big earthquake, it could be called the darkest moment. Even in our country, many people couldn’t believe it was true. They all thought Big Brother was playing some conspiracy to be so powerful. How could it be possible that the big brother of China would collapse immediately?

 Ordinary people can’t believe this is true, but high-level officials know it is absolutely true.

Fortunately, our country has been reforming and opening up for more than ten years, and it has embarked on a completely different path from Big Brother. Although the collapse of Big Brother has brought a great shock to everyone at the psychological level, it has not shaken us. Our foundation.

However, the collapse of Big Brother is really unbelievable and has shaken the faith of some people.

 At this critical moment, the chief designer stood up.

 As a result, a speech that is a milestone in the history of my country's reform and opening up and has an extremely profound and long-term impact on our country's current and future development came into being.

The great historical significance of this speech is immeasurable, and it cannot be praised enough. It was after this speech that my country's reform and opening up truly changed from "reform first" to "opening first" ”, bringing our country’s development into a new stage.

 It is no exaggeration to say that this southern tour speech is the guiding light for our country’s development.

Deng Shirong experienced this scene in his previous life, but he could not understand the significance of these words to the development of our country at that time. It was not until he started reading online novels in later generations that he realized how important the chief designer's words were to our country at that time.

He understood this life. When he saw the old man in the news, Deng Shirong admired him from the bottom of his heart. If it hadn't been for this old man, even if he was lucky enough to be reborn, he wouldn't have been able to live such a wealthy life so quickly.

If he remembered correctly, after Deng Gong’s speech, it also had a huge impact on the system. Countless elites responded to the call, directly went through the resignation procedures, and then joined the business world without hesitation.

Most of the elites went through the formalities of suspending their jobs without pay. With this guarantee, they were confident enough to choose to go into business overseas.

As long as he succeeds, he will make a fortune. But if he fails, it doesn't matter. At worst, he can continue to work. The country will keep his job anyway!

 …

  Nanning.

 Wuyue Plaza mansion.

Deng Shirong is looking at the report cards of Xiao Dong'er and Dongzi. Xiao Dong'er, the top student, performed as steadily as ever and once again won the first place in the grade. Dongzi had good luck this semester and barely ranked 20th in the class.

After reading the report card, Deng Shirong looked at his eldest granddaughter and praised with a smile: "Xiao Dong'er is really good. He won the first place in grade again. Where do you want to go this holiday?"

 Xiao Dong'er had obviously thought about the place a long time ago, and blurted out directly: "Grandpa, I want to go to my second uncle's place to play."

Deng Shirong was a little surprised when he heard this, but he still nodded and said with a smile: "Okay, grandpa will take you to your second uncle's place to play."

Dongzi jumped out hurriedly and said: "Grandpa, I also ranked 20th in the class. Why don't you ask me where I want to go?"

Deng Shirong laughed and said, "Okay, grandpa asks you, where do you want to go?"

Dongzi said: "Grandpa, I also want to go to my second uncle's place to play."

Deng Shirong didn't know whether to laugh or cry: "Then let's go to your second uncle's place to play together. I will prepare some local specialties for your second uncle first, and we will set off in three days."

Dongzi said excitedly: "I wonder if Ergou can talk?"

Xiaodong'er said: "Now that I can speak, my second aunt called me back a few days ago, and my second aunt even called me sister!"

Dongzi asked: "Then will he call me brother?"

Xiaodong'er said: "When you teach him, he will shout."

Dongzi nodded and said, "Then I will teach him well when I go."

 …

Deng Shirong naturally had to make good preparations when he was going to Fujian. He still had a lot of canned beef brisket and spicy crab that he had made before, but since the quantities of canned beef brisket and spicy crab were not large, they were gone after dividing them among his children.

So, in the next three days, Deng Shirong made another batch of canned beef brisket and spicy crab, and Huishui Zhan was also indispensable.

As for glutinous rice wine, longan, broken black tea, Azhunu cigarettes and other specialties, Deng Shirong has not prepared any other specialties. He still has a lot of them in his system space!

 After getting all these things ready, Deng Shirong took his grandchildren and boarded a plane to Fujian.

 When we arrived in Fuzhou, it was already past five o'clock in the afternoon.

Deng Shirong had no intention of rushing to Fuqing overnight. Instead, he found a place to have dinner with his grandchildren, and then found a high-end hotel to stay.

 Early the next morning.

Deng Shirong took his grandson and granddaughter to eat a very unique local delicacy. The name of this delicacy is Guobianpao, also known as Dingbianpao and Dingbianchui. It is a flavor that most people in Fuzhou love to eat. snack.

 The taste is indeed good, and all three of them enjoyed it with gusto. No wonder it is so popular among so many people.

After a delicious breakfast, the grandfather and grandson took the big and small luggage and got on the bus bound for Fuqing.
