After rebirth, I just want to win

Chapter 287 Almost became sworn brothers with my father-in-law

Xia Chuan usually didn't go to the wine table to drink. He didn't expect Xia Qing's father to be so fond of wine, so he drank some with him.

"How old are you this year and are you still in school?"

At the wine table, Xia Qing's father was talking about entrusting him, but he was actually drinking.

Xia Qing's mother also looked at Xia Chuan up and down. The more she looked, the more satisfied she became. She said that his appearance was impeccable, he was not that thin, he looked solid, and he looked good, not like the kind of person with oily hair and pink face. "I think the young man looks good." He's quite handsome, matches my Qingqing family, and he looks honest..."

Xia Qing laughed along with her, grinning from ear to ear.

honest?

Xia Chuan?

This guy is mean and dishonest.

But when her mother praised her boyfriend, Xia Qing was happy inside and gave Xia Chuan an awkward look.

"Auntie, you look young too. By the way, I forgot about it. This is a small gift I bought for you. It's your first time here and I don't know what you like."

Xia Chuan took out the gold bracelet he bought.

"Ouch!"

Xia Qing's mother was shocked: "Why are you buying these things? I don't need them. Give them to Xia Qing."

"I also bought it for Xia Qing. I bought it especially for you. You can put it on and see if it fits you."

"You don't have to buy them for me. Why are you buying these for someone so old? As long as you two have a good relationship, her father and I will be happier than anything else..."

Xia Qing reminded: "Mom, just give it a try. You don't want anything your son-in-law buys for you?"

"That's what you said."

Xia Qing's mother carefully put on the bracelet, probably knowing it well: "It looks good, but it's not cheap, right?"

"A little thought, no money."

"hehe…"

Xia Chuan continued to drink with Xia Qing's father.

Xia Qing's mother reminded her with a smile: "Come to think of it, you are all surnamed Xia. This is weird. If you give birth to children in the future, they will also be surnamed Xia..."

"mom!"

Xia Qing glanced at his mother and told her that if she didn't like to talk, she could just say a few words and it would be fine.

On the contrary, the opening was quite clear, and it directly skipped the topic to children. Who among the young people today wants to have children so early? It’s not that era anymore.

"You are not young anymore. You will be twenty-seven or eighty-year-old in two years. Look at the person next door who is twenty years old and has a second child."

Xia Qing's mother sighed.

Xia Qing smiled coquettishly and did not criticize or refute his mother. He let her speak. A person's thoughts cannot be changed by a few words.

It was someone else anyway, not her.

Does she think having a second child at the age of twenty is not something worth talking about, or does she think having a second child at the age of twenty is worthy of praise?

There are also those girls who are eighteen or nineteen years old or younger, which are quite sad when you think about it.

Girls are eighteen years old and have yet to experience their prime years...

She is not even at the best age yet, but she becomes a mother because she is ignorant, or has to do this because of family reasons. Is this something worthy of praise and promotion?

This is why Xia Qing is disgusted with these things. Normal people would be disgusted.

But I have to say that in remote rural areas, this is a more realistic thing.

She works as a nurse and has seen this kind of thing a lot, not only in rural areas but also in cities, so she thinks about it more.

The youngest one she had ever seen in the hospital was sixteen years old, and she thought it was ridiculous at the time.

Xia Chuan said: "Auntie, I will talk to Xia Qing for a few more years, and we will talk about it later."

"Young people have young people's ideas, let them decide for themselves."

Xia Qing's father smoothed things over. He knew that his daughter didn't like this kind of topic, so he filled it with Xia Chuan again.

Xia Chuan had no choice but to drink and eat peanuts with him.

In the blink of an eye, three drunken rounds.

Xia Qing's father's face was as red as a monkey's butt, and he was speechless.

Xia Chuan knew he was very drunk just by looking at him, and Xia Qing's father was very addicted to food.

“Good drinker!”

Suddenly, Xia Qing's father slammed the table and said in a high voice: "Brother, you are my eldest brother. I will toast you again. From today on, you are my sworn brother!!!"

"Lao Xia, are you crazy?"

At this time, Xia Qing's mother, even though she was a quiet woman, couldn't stand it any longer.

With an embarrassed smile on her face, she pulled her husband, but unfortunately she couldn't pull him.

Being drunk is much more difficult than being sober.

Xia Qing covered her face, full of sadness.

"uncle…"

Xia Chuan hurriedly helped Xia Qing's father, who was about to kneel down, feeling that his life was about to expire.

Forty minutes later, the squeaking sounds of cicadas on the trees in the village filled my ears.

Xia Qing's father carried him and put him on the bed. Xia Qing's mother marveled at Xia Chuan's strength.

"Okay, let him fall asleep. He won't be able to wake up even after dinner. Don't go out when it's so hot. Turn on the air conditioner and take a nap. Xiaoxia will stay here today. I'll make your bed."

Xia Qing's mother said.

Xia Chuan felt that all the mothers-in-law were the same.

"Mom, Xia Chuan still has something to do, so we won't live here. I still have to go to the hospital. Let's take a nap."

"Well, you turn on the air conditioner and I'll cut a watermelon for you."

Xia Qing's mother looked at her and reminded her.

There is only one air conditioner in Xia Qing's home, and it is in a room on the second floor specially installed for Xia Qing. There is a yard with a few peach trees planted behind it, and beyond that is farmland.

Xia Qing took the watermelon and said, "Mom, please put this bracelet away."

"Hey, I know."

"I'll keep it locked in the cupboard."

Xia Qing's mother was holding such a precious gift. It was the first time in her life that she had received such an expensive gift. She couldn't help but feel how beautiful it was. She thought that many people in the village had been tricked by thieves. Maybe it was done by acquaintances, so they had to be locked up.

On the second floor with the air conditioner turned on, the room was neat and tidy, and relatively empty and not like a girl's room.

Xia Qing sat there nibbling watermelon and raised her head: "Did you know that in rural areas, the watermelon is put in the well and then pulled up to look like it is in the refrigerator? It's quite sweet. Want to eat some?"

"To tell you the truth, I peed in a well when I was a child."

"?"

Xia Qing complained angrily: "Be more serious."

"Haha, you suddenly mentioned the well and it reminded me of this. We were the same way at that time."

A year ago, his home was a small house on three acres of land.

There is no well, and they are even poorer than Xia Qing's family. How can he not know these things?

"Actually, I'm thinking about the fact that I almost became sworn sworn friends with your dad. Should I call him uncle, brother, or should I call him my own?"

Xia Chuan couldn't laugh or cry, he was really convinced by this experience.

If he was drunk too, wouldn't he be able to knock his head off?

All in all, Xia Qing's father is more interesting than Jiang He's father.

Xia Qing was speechless: "His personality is like this, and it's the same when relatives come to the house during the Spring Festival. He is more hospitable, but he has no points when it comes to drinking. He is too confident in his ability to drink. My mother often says that he doesn't know how high the sky is, haha."

"Uncle is very enthusiastic."

Xia Chuan rested his arm on his head and teased: "Your mother is nagging us to have a few children."

"what are you thinking about?"

Xia Qing shook her head and threw the watermelon rind into the trash can: "We are still children now, and we are still having children. Do you have that sense of responsibility? Let's talk about it later. Anyway, I don't want to have children now!"

"hehe…"

Seeing Xia Qing's somewhat resistant look, Xia Chuan stopped teasing her: "If you can't sleep, let's go out."

"Where are you going on such a hot day?"

Xia Qing frowned.

Seeing him holding his wallet and car keys, Xia Qingcai asked, "Don't you really want to take a nap?"

"I'm not in the habit of taking a nap, so I'm going to buy something."

The two secretly went out. Xia Chuan threw the car keys to Xia Qing: "I won't drive after drinking."

Xia Qing's driving skills can be trusted. At least there is no need to worry about her driving into ponds, fields, green belts, or even onto street lights...

Anyway, Xia Chuan doesn't know what kind of god he is that can drive his car to a street light and hang it in the air. His teacher in Subject 2 and Subject 3 never taught him this. He is a self-proclaimed veteran driver of Qiu Mingshan and he can also bend a drainage ditch, but he still can't. A small witch can see a big witch, which shows how awesome the female driver is.

Of course, this is an example. There are still many female drivers who are good at driving.

"Just stop there."

Xia Chuan pointed.

Xia Qing parked the car and followed behind, and immediately understood what Xia Chuan was going to do: "You take me out and buy these?"

"I see that you don't have a refrigerator at home, and you only have an air conditioner. Are your parents reluctant to buy it?"

"Um…"

Xia Qing did not deny it.

Xia Chuan asked a staff member: "When can we come to install it?"

"Boss, if you buy it today, it can be installed at your door today, right away."

"Buy an air conditioner and a refrigerator, as well as a vertical one. Let the installer drive directly to my car."

Xia Chuan acted vigorously and resolutely.

Seeing how happy he was, the boss immediately arranged for two decoration masters to finish the job in half a day.

Xia Qing was bargaining over there. She knew that Xia Chuan was not short of money, but she also felt that this rich guy had become stupid.

Didn't his money come from the strong wind?

This was her living habit, and it ended up being several hundred cheaper.

What wouldn’t it be good to do with these hundreds of dollars?

Although Xia Qing has lived a high-quality life, she has not abandoned the habits that have followed her.

Xia Chuan ran next door and bought an LCD TV.

Xia Qing had a headache: "Don't buy it. My parents are afraid that they will run out of electricity. You should restrain yourself."

"The electricity bill in rural areas is not bad. You can send two thousand yuan home every month, which is enough for two people."

"I know, I know."

Xia Qing smoothed her hair on her temples and looked at Xia Chuan with moist eyes: "I said you are so young, why are you so sensible? You make me look like a child?"

"The children of the poor have already become the masters of their families."

Xia Chuan felt that this excuse was as perfect as snake oil.

Xia Qing was touched in her heart. Xia Chuan must have suffered a lot when he was a child. His mother was gone at such a young age.

Xia Qing's mother was awakened by the sound of an impact drill.

He looked out the window in confusion, not knowing what was going on.

"Xia Qing..."

"Mom, wake up and buy something..."

Xia Qing felt that this was the only trouble. She had to talk to them about her parents' personalities before they could accept it. However, she felt that there was nothing wrong with what Xia Chuan did. She should have done it this way long ago. Doesn't it make her seem very ignorant?

Xia Qing didn't know whether to laugh or cry, and looked at Xia Chuan with extremely gentle eyes.

Xia Qing's mother stood nearby, and she couldn't be more satisfied with her future son-in-law.

Xia Qing's father was still sleeping and couldn't wake up at all. Maybe he was still dreaming about the three sworn brothers in Taoyuan.

By the time the house is finished decorating, it's already getting late.

Xia Qing's mother made some home-cooked food, ate a simple meal, and warned: "You guys drive slower on the road, Xiaoxia, come over when you have time, call in advance."

"okay."

After leaving Lishui and getting on the highway, Xia Qing reminded: "Would you like to take a nap?"

"It's not like you don't know how much I drink. I'll help you look after the car."

"Shall we go to Xia Yu's store?"

Xia Qing reminded: "Her business has been slow recently, and she has been doing promotions to maintain business."

"Go and have a look."

Xia Chuan reminded: "Don't talk about investment when you go. Don't I know Manager Zheng over there? Did I tell you?"

"Yes, I told you."

Xia Qing nodded, listening in all directions and seeing in six directions.

Xia Chuan thought about it for a while: "I thought about it carefully. If Xia Yu and her boyfriend are like this, it's not feasible. It's better to create a brand yourself and let them invest and manage it. It would be more convenient if the contract is written in black and white. "

Xia Chuan has made a lot of investments recently, and even has the idea of ​​setting up an investment department.

When investing in this thing, the initiative must be in one's own hands, otherwise problems will easily arise if he is too passive. The initiative is not in one's hands, and it is not his character to accommodate others.

"I'll listen to you."

Xia Qing said: "What should you do? I will discuss it. If Xia Yu and her boyfriend are not happy, there is nothing we can do."

Of course she is facing her boyfriend, needless to say.

The two talked a lot in the car. Xia Yu and Xia Qing were friends after all. Don't open a brand store by themselves and make it famous. Wouldn't this make Xia Yu feel ashamed and have nothing to do with his friends?

Originally I didn't plan to open a brand store because it was too busy.

Since my friend Xia Qing wants to do something, then do it well instead of doing whatever you want. Some things are impossible without adapting to your own personality, and consumers will not accommodate you.

Entering the city, there are more private cars and taxis.

Another advantage of the Big G car is that even an incompetent driver will not dare to hang around next to you. It is not a problem of insurance. Who can’t afford insurance? The main reason is that it is easy to offend people.

I have been driving a big G on the road for a year, and I have become a successful person with some hard power.

Xia Chuan glanced at the rearview mirror. Many cars were far away. Xia Qing also knew the importance of traffic regulations. As long as she didn't run into other lanes and drove calmly, there would be basically no problem.

Not long after, Xinjiekou.

At around six o'clock, Xinjiekou has a very dense flow of customers. They avoid the hottest time in the afternoon and go out to look for food in the evening and go shopping.

With her white skin, beauty, and long legs, she is simply a man's paradise. Her halter top, short skirt, and leather pants are more sultry and cool than the last.

The central shopping mall has an extremely large number of customers.

Young couples gathered together, some with milk tea in their hands. There were still a lot of customers in Ouyang Ming's store, but obviously not as many as those across the street. The opposite side was also doing events and promotions, and the smell of competition was particularly strong.

"Xia Qing, good evening Xia Chuan, how are you going back?"

Xia Yu asked curiously.

Xia Qing smiled: "What else can I do? My parents are like that."

"You brought your boyfriend back and your parents weren't shocked?"

"It was agreed in advance."

"Okay, I'll get you drinks!"

Xia Yu ran to the back door and got two glasses of signboard.

Xia Chuan looked into the store: "Where is Ouyang Ming?"

"I went to play with my friends."

"That's okay."

Since Ouyang Ming was not here, Xia Chuan didn't bother to talk.

Xia Qing pulled Xia Yu: "How is your recent turnover?"

"It's not working well. It basically depends on the customer flow in Xinjiekou. I feel that it is really difficult to open a milk tea shop. Customers' tastes are really tricky, and it is a bit difficult to adjust to one another."

Xia Yu shook his head.

Xia Qing reminded: "Didn't I say that if you encounter any problems, you can go to Xia Chuan and ask him to give you some advice."

"Why…"

Xia Yu was helpless and then looked at Xia Chuan.

Xia Chuan took a sip: "It's not easy. To be honest, the taste is okay, the price is a little expensive, and the next door is competing with you. You are not a franchise brand. You don't have a brand effect and you don't follow the usual path. It's hard to find business." Your own problem.”

"Mr. Xia, what should we do?"

"Let's do it again, it's already useless."

Rectification is not as fast and refreshing as overturning and rebuilding.

Xia Yu was immediately confused by these words. How could it be so easy? But if you think about it carefully, it definitely makes sense for a big boss with a net worth of several hundred million to say these things.

"I'll call and ask Ouyang Ming to come over."

Not long after, Ouyang Ming ran over in a hurry: "Brother Chuan, why didn't you tell me that you were here?"

"Xia Qing and I came here to have a drink. The store is not doing well."

"yes…"

When Xia Chuan said this, Ouyang Ming really had no temper at all and was pragmatic: "The next door is so disgusting. I just opened the door to do some activities, and the other side also followed suit. I did what the other side did, and at least half of the business was taken away. Now Although we didn’t lose money, we only made a little profit. Business was really good in the first few days after we opened.”

"That's not how you do business."

Xia Chuan crossed his arms and said, "Well, let me show you the way. Anyway, I don't think you two can do anything good. Your personality is more normal and down-to-earth than ordinary young people. Xia Qing and Xia Yu are also good friends. Here it is, don’t say I won’t help when the time comes, it just depends on whether you are willing or not.”

"Brother Chuan, tell me!"

Ouyang Ming felt a little excited when he heard this. If Xia Chuan was willing to give some advice, that would really be better than anything else.

He was worried to death about opening a store recently. When he first opened it, he was in high spirits. Now he sees that the sales volume is getting worse day by day. He has had several quarrels with the opposite party and almost stopped fighting. He is very angry and feels happy early. there is none left.

He hasn't been in the mood to come to the store recently because Xia Yu is watching.

“Do you now know that starting a business is difficult?”

"It's not that difficult!"

Ouyang Ming felt that a lot of his hair had fallen out recently: "Brother Chuan, this is really not caused by humans."

"You two come and help me open the store. I'll take you to do it. It will definitely be more comfortable than here."

Xia Chuan is the least willing to do these things with friends or acquaintances. There is a lot of trouble.

Therefore, he planned to let Manager Zheng train and train these two newbies.

He is very busy and has no time to do these things, so now he understands the importance of tool people.

Of course, the prerequisite is that these two people are willing.

If you don't want to, just pretend he didn't say it.

That's how people are, and there's nothing you can do about it if they don't appreciate it.

Xia Chuan reminded: "You can go back and ask your parents, just say it was the 'little monster' Xia Chuan who said it. I don't insist on this matter. I am just a gamer. I have never been in a beverage shop or catering. I will first I put my words here.”

“Are we closing this store?”

Xia Yu asked.

Xia Chuan nodded: "Of course, I will run my own brand for you, and I will probably close your store. To put it bluntly, the two of you will work for me in the future. It depends on whether you are happy or not."

Xia Yu is a little embarrassed. She finally doesn't have to go to work and can open a shop here comfortably. Although the turnover has been much lower recently, the turnover is still good.

Now tell her to go back to being a laborer...

Xia Yu didn't say anything, but she was a little reluctant in her heart. She still hoped that Xia Chuan could give them some advice.

Ouyang Ming gritted his teeth and said, "Brother Chuan, I will transfer the store tomorrow. When do you think I can work with you?"

Ouyang Ming has been exposed to it since he was a child, and he also understands some things.

Xia Chuan even brought this matter to the public, obviously because of the friendship between Xia Qing and Xia Yu, he would be really ignorant if he thought about it again and again; and he didn't listen to him Dad said, put down your dignity and move as close to Xia Chuan as possible.

If he didn't tell him his own thoughts, could his father still harm him?

Xia Chuan glanced at him with interest: "No need to think about it anymore?"

"Brother Chuan is giving you face like this, how can I not appreciate it? Come on, Xia Yu, we will find someone to transfer this store tomorrow. We will get off work at night to sort it out, and the staff will be paid and dismissed."

Ouyang Ming felt a little more fighting spirit in his heart. He now understood that it was really uncomfortable for him to fight alone.

Xia Yu doesn't understand this either. He has to run around and think about what to do. It's annoying to death. It's really difficult to do something that you've never done before. Fortunately, the investment in the milk tea shop is not big. He still made a little profit and paid some rent, so he didn't lose money. what money.

He immediately understood that learning from Xia Chuan is the real thing. Even if he really wants to create something in the future, he will have rich experience by then.

"Um…"

After Xia Yu heard Ouyang Ming's words, there was nothing he could do.

"That's it. It's getting late today. Let's talk tomorrow."

Xia Chuan pulled Xia Qing away, and Xia Qing asked as he walked: "Are you really planning to do it? You are not prepared at all."

"It's a small thing to open a milk tea shop."

From his perspective, it is not difficult to open a milk tea shop, so the most important thing is business experience and experience.

Xia Qing said helplessly: "You should have told me earlier. I'm leaving soon. To be honest, I'm quite interested."

"You came out for fun, right?"

Xia Chuan still didn't know Xia Qing, but seeing Xia Yu there, she became hot within three minutes.

Xia Qing smiled slightly and did not refute.
