 Chapter 408 The strength of the Pei family



 The old house of the Pei family.

Hearing her daughter's answer, Pei's mother knew what she was doing and asked, "Qinghua, you just said that this beef nugget is a local product from Yulin, Guangxi, and also said that it was made by your colleague's father, what about you?" Is this colleague from Guangxi?”

Pei Qinghua nodded and said, "Well, he is from Guangxi."

Pei's mother and Pei's father looked at each other and continued to ask: "Qinghua, how old is your colleague? What is his family background?"

“He is the same age as me. They are both fresh graduates this year and entered the company at the same time.”

 At this point, Pei Qinghua paused for a moment before continuing: "As for his background, his family seems to be from a rural area, so he probably doesn't have any family background."

Mother Pei frowned slightly when she heard this. Although she was not very strict about being well-matched, she could not be too far off. A "child from a poor family" who came from a remote rural area was obviously not worthy of a precious daughter like her.

Father Pei said: "Those who can get into your unit must have a background or be outstanding. Since your colleague has no background, he must be outstanding. I wonder which university he graduated from?"

Pei Qinghua smiled and said, "He graduated from Tsinghua University."

When Pei's father heard this, he showed an expression as expected and said: "Graduating from Tsinghua University, you are indeed one of the best among people."

Sister-in-law Pei then continued: "The academic qualifications are indeed worthy of my younger sister, but it's a pity that I am only from a rural background and my family background is not a good match."

Second Sister-in-law Pei nodded and said, "My family background is a bit different."

“Sister-in-law and second sister-in-law, what do you think is worthy of me? We are just colleagues now.”

At this point, Pei Qinghua changed the subject: "Besides, even if he pursues me, I don't care about his family background. I think whether this couple is happy or not has nothing to do with their family background. Whether the personalities are compatible is the most important thing.”

Pei's mother said: "Qinghua, what you said does make some sense, but if the family backgrounds of the two parties are too different, there may be many problems. If these problems are not solved for a long time, they will naturally affect the relationship between the couple. .

Therefore, I think that if a man and a woman want to get together, they do not need to be absolutely matched, but at least the family backgrounds of the two parties should not be too different, otherwise the relationship between the husband and wife will be difficult to maintain for a long time. "

Pei Qinghua looked at her father and asked, "Dad, do you think so too?"

Father Pei said: "If the man is just an ordinary person without much potential, then your mother's statement is correct. If the family background of the two parties is too different, it will be difficult to be happy. But if the man is particularly outstanding, That’s another matter, and the specific situation must be analyzed on a case-by-case basis and cannot be generalized.”

Pei Qinghua praised: "Dad, you are worthy of being a minister. You see things more comprehensively than my mother."

Mother Pei glanced at her precious daughter and said, "Don't be happy yet. What your dad said is that the man is very outstanding. Your colleague graduated from Tsinghua University, so he can be considered outstanding, but excellence cannot be equated with being extremely outstanding." of."

Pei Qinghua said: "Mom, you've never met her, how do you know she's not particularly outstanding?"

Hearing this, Pei Yuanba couldn't help but said: "Little sister, are you really attracted to your colleague?"

Pei Qinghua quickly denied it and said: "It's nothing, isn't this just a rush of words?"

Pei's mother said: "It's best not to have one. Anyway, I don't think much of you two."

Pei Qinghua didn't want to talk more about this topic, so she changed the subject and said, "Okay, let's not talk about it for now. While everyone at home is here, I will fry this gray water jellyfish for lunch today, so you can also try this from Guangxi. What does the specialty taste like?”

The eldest brother Pei Yuanlong, who had been watching the excitement without saying a word, heard this and answered with a smile: "Little sister, you are so naughty and say this is delicious. The taste must be unmistakable, so let's eat this for lunch! "

Pei Qinghua hummed, "Brother, what you said is that I'm so naughty."

Pei's mother said: "Your eldest brother is right. You are the most picky about food in the whole family. It is not wrong at all to say that you have a naughty mouth."

“Mom, the saints have said that you should never tire of fine food and never tire of fine food.”

Pei Qinghua said in an orderly manner: "According to the Analects of Confucius, when Confucius ate, the more refined the food was, the better, and the finer the meat was, the better.

 Do not eat if the food is stale or smelly, and the fish and meat are not fresh. The color of the food has changed, so don’t eat it. The color and taste are not good, so don’t eat it. If cooked improperly, do not eat. New vegetables from time to time are not eaten. If the meat is not cut squarely, you will not eat it. The condiments are not put properly, so I won’t eat it. Do not eat wine or cooked meat bought from the market.

 Compared with the Saint Kong, how can I be so naughty? "

Mother Pei was speechless, shook her head and sighed: "Okay, I know you have read a lot, but I can't tell you what to do. Can this gray water jellyfish be fried and eaten directly?"

Pei Qinghua said with a smile: "First cut this gray water jellyfish into pieces, each piece is about one centimeter thick, then add oil in the pot, fry it slowly over low heat, fry it until fluffy, then sprinkle with salt and you can eat it. .

If you want to eat something sweet, just melt the white sugar and wrap it on the gray water rice. "

Mother Pei said: "Then fry some and try it to see how it tastes."

Sister-in-law Pei said quickly: "Mom, let me do it!"

Second sister-in-law Pei also volunteered and said, "Sister-in-law, let me help you."

Pei Qinghua said: "I'm here to help, too."

With that said, the three of them went into the kitchen and got busy with a Huishui Zhi.

Seeing that her daughter had also entered the kitchen, Pei's mother looked at Pei's father and said, "Old Pei, do you think there is something wrong with our daughter and her colleague?"

Father Pei nodded and said, "There's something wrong, but we probably haven't gotten together yet, but we both have that intention."

Mother Pei frowned and said, "What should we do? The man graduated from Tsinghua University. Although he is also very good, his rural background is always a flaw. It is indeed a bit different from our family. If Qinghua gets together with him, I am afraid it will make people angry. Saw the joke.”

Pei's father said: "It's not a joke. After all, he is a top student from Tsinghua University and has entered an institution like the Ministry of Finance. His future is still promising."

Pei Yuanlong said: "Dad, I am from a rural background. Without the support of family background, even top students from Tsinghua University may not be able to reach high positions. If you are lucky, you may be promoted to the department level. If you are not lucky, you may stop at the department level. ”

Pei Yuan said overbearingly: "Even if he is only at the department level, that's fine. Besides, if he can really become our brother-in-law, dad can help us at the critical moment. It shouldn't be difficult to be promoted to the department level. After all, he is a top student who graduated from Tsinghua University. !”

Mother Pei said worriedly: "I will ask Qinghua in detail later. This important matter of marriage cannot be decided hastily. I do not require her to find a well-matched person, but at least she must be from a wealthy family or have department-level elders in the family. , Lao Pei, are you right?"

Father Pei smiled and said: "It's a good thing to find someone from a good family, but there's no need to force this kind of thing. As long as Qinghua likes her and the young man is good, that's all."

Pei's mother glared at him and said, "You are a great minister. If your in-laws are just ordinary farmers, it would be very uncomfortable for both parties to sit at the same table and eat, right? I don't look down on farmers, but you have to Acknowledge the differences.”

Pei's father said: "There must be a gap, but again, there is no need to force things like feelings, just let it take its own course."

Mother Pei said angrily: "Forget it, since you, a minister, don't care, why should I worry about it?"

Father Pei laughed and said, "It's not that I don't care, it's just that the country now opposes arranged marriages and advocates free love. We should set an example and let our daughter freely choose the person she likes. We just need to carry out appropriate checks."

 “Aren’t I just looking after my daughter?”

Mother Pei said confidently: "Our Qinghua family needs to be educated, have a good figure, and have good looks. To be honest, there are many men in the whole capital who want to marry her, and they are all from good families.

 There are so many better conditions for her to choose from, why let her choose one with a bad background? "

When his wife mentioned this, Father Pei couldn't help but smile. His daughter was indeed outstanding and excellent in all aspects. She was indeed very popular in the capital. If she was willing, it would not be difficult for her to marry someone with a better family background than theirs. .

However, Father Pei is such a precious daughter and is reluctant to force her to marry someone he doesn't like. He still prefers to let his daughter find her own choice.

Thinking of this, Father Pei smiled and said: "You are right. If my daughter likes her, then I will naturally be happy for her to marry someone with better conditions. But we can't force her to marry someone she doesn't like. Everything Let her wishes prevail.”

"I know this. I'm not that snobbish to force her to marry someone she doesn't like. I'll talk to her later and see if I can dispel her current thoughts."

At this point, Pei's mother picked up the can of nubuck in front of her and looked at it and said: "The color of this nubuck looks quite attractive, but I don't know if the taste is really as delicious as Qinghua said."

Pei Yuanba smiled and said: "Mom, you can doubt my little sister, but when it comes to eating, I think you don't have to doubt it at all. If she says it's delicious, then it must be delicious."

Pei Yuanlong nodded in agreement and said, "Yes, we can fully trust the food that has been authenticated by my little sister."

Mother Pei laughed and said, "That's right. She has such a naughty mouth, and there aren't many delicious foods that she can praise. It seems that her colleague's father is really good at making beef noodle."

Not long after, Mrs. Pei and the other three came out carrying four plates of fried gray water rice.

Pei Yuanba was the first to praise: "The color looks so appetizing!"

Pei Yuanlong said: "It looks good, little sister, is this delicious sweet or salty?"

Pei Qinghua smiled and said: "They are all delicious, but the salty ones are probably more suitable for your taste, brother. I will make you a pot of tea. Take a sip and then drink the tea. It will be a perfect match."

Soon, the whole family was sitting together, drinking tea and eating this specialty from distant Guangxi.

 Sure enough, the whole family liked the delicacies that Pei Qinghua had appraised very much.

This salty dish has a special fragrance, and the more you eat it, the more addictive it becomes. It tastes like pastry, soft, glutinous and sweet. The more you eat it, the more you want to eat it.

Father Pei took a sip of tea, looked at his eldest son and said, "Yuanlong, how is your work? Have you encountered any difficulties?"

Father Pei said: "Muli County is located in a high-altitude mountainous area with harsh natural environment and inconvenient transportation. When I asked you to work here, I didn't expect you to change the mental outlook of this impoverished county. I just wanted you to experience the people's livelihood here. Suffering, learn how to be an official.

 After you have tempered yourself, I will transfer you to other better platforms so that you can make full use of your talents. "

Pei Yuanlong nodded and said: "Dad, I understand. I just feel a little uncomfortable when I see the folks in Muli County living so hard. It's difficult to help them find a way out. This is not something I, a high-ranking official in the county, can do. Unless there is strong support from the state, it will be really difficult to change this backwardness.”

Father Pei sighed: "Our country has been poor for so many years. There are too many cities in the country that need to be developed. It is impossible to develop them all together. That's why Deng Gong proposed to let some people and some areas get rich first, and then drive most areas. , to achieve common prosperity.

At present, national resources are naturally given priority to cities that can develop rapidly. As for poor counties like Muli County, which is very difficult to develop, they can only wait for other cities to develop and then slowly promote its development. "

Pei Yuanlong said: "I understand that as the saying goes, one appointment as an official will benefit one party. I will try my best to do something for the folks in Muli County."

Father Pei said happily: "I'm very happy that you have such an idea. Then work hard and do it boldly. I support you."

Pei Yuanlong smiled and said, "Thank you, Dad."

Father Pei looked at his second son and asked, "Yuanba, how are you doing in the army?"

Pei Yuan said overbearingly: "Dad, everything is going well for me. The leader values ​​me very much."

Father Pei nodded and said, "Then work hard and strive to become a general."

Pei Yuanba said enthusiastically: "I will definitely work hard."

Father Pei then looked at his youngest daughter and asked, "Qinghua, you just started working this year, how do you feel? Are you still getting used to it?"

Pei Qinghua said: "I feel pretty good. The leaders and colleagues in the unit are very easy to get along with. We haven't encountered the dirty things like intrigues in the officialdom yet."

Pei's father said: "Anyway, you are very thoughtful. If you encounter something you don't understand, just tell dad. Do you understand?"

 “I got it, Dad!”

Her father has been working in the officialdom for decades, and his experience is not comparable to that of a rookie who has just entered the officialdom.

Mother Pei listened to her husband asking about the development of her children one by one, and she was still very satisfied. Although the official positions of her three children were not high enough, her old Pei had not retired yet, so he could not help his children any longer. questionable.

 When her old man Pei retires, I believe that his children will be able to barely handle it.

Whether we can continue to go up then depends on whether our children have the ability.

 …

 At the entrance of Naye Deng’s Ancestral Hall.

Today is the day for the clan meeting, and the clansmen all gathered at the appointed time.

When everyone arrived, Deng Shirong came up to the stage and said: "Dear clan members, there are three main things to do in the clan meeting today:

 1. Award scholarships to outstanding students in the clan.

 Second, let me tell you about the current achievements of Deng’s Group and its development direction for next year.

 Three, it is the group dividend that everyone has been looking forward to for a whole year.

Now, let’s start with the first thing. Students whose names are read next, please come up to the stage to receive your scholarship awards. I hope you can continue your efforts and achieve better results next semester. "

After Deng Shirong, the clan leader, finished speaking, the clan members responsible for student aid awards began to read the names one by one, and then a dedicated person was responsible for awarding the awards.

The Nayedeng family has been doing this for several years and has become very familiar with it.

Since the current student aid awards are directly sponsored by the Deng Group, the amount of the awards has been greatly increased compared to before. Even clan members who are not short of money cannot ignore such a reward, not to mention that this award is not just about money, the most important thing is face. .

 Now in the Naye Deng family, what everyone is comparing is no longer the economy, but whose children have better academic performance.

Whose children study well, and the parents will have a lot of face in the clan.

This kind of emphasis on children's learning was pioneered by Deng Shirong, the leader of the family.

In the entire Naye Deng clan, who doesn't envy the seven outstanding sons and daughters of the clan leader, especially the clan leader's second son Deng Yunheng, who has been promoted to the deputy director. The gold content of graduating from Peking University makes the clan members yearn for it and even dream of it. Let your children also be admitted to such a university.

Deng Shirong is happy to see this kind of comparison. Compared with financial comparison, learning comparison is the real way to strengthen a family.

“Deng Changli, ranked first in the grade in the final exam, will be awarded 1,000 yuan.”

Hearing this, Xiao Dong'er happily went on stage to receive the award under Dongzi's extremely envious eyes.

 Deng Yuntai and Zhang Xiuping also had smiles on their faces. Their daughter’s academic performance was a great encouragement to them.

"Jiu Gong is really amazing. He not only trained three key college students, Uncle Yunheng, Uncle Yunsong and Uncle Yunheng, but his granddaughter is also so good at reading. She directly ranked first in the whole grade. I'm really dissatisfied. ah!"

"Yes, it's really amazing. You must know that this is a school in Nanning, the capital. The competitiveness is not comparable to that of our Naye Primary School. There are many children with good academic performance there. Xiao Dong'er can learn in that kind of environment Ranked first in the entire grade, I am definitely a promising candidate at Tsinghua University and Peking University.”

“If there is another college student from Tsinghua University and Peking University in Jiu Gong’s family, I really can’t imagine what that concept will be like.”

“I’m so envious. If there were a college student in my family, I would wake up laughing in my dreams.”

“Who says it’s not the case? It doesn’t need to be a key university, even an ordinary university.”

　　　…”

　　When Xiao Donger went on stage to receive the award, the tribesmen in the audience talked a lot, and their voices were filled with envy.

Soon, Xiao Dong'er returned to her parents with 1,000 yuan. Dongzi looked at the money in her sister's hand and said with a flattering look on her face: "Sister, it's so much money, can you give me some of it?"

Xiao Dong'er glanced at him and asked: "I have food and clothing at home, and everything is available in the supermarket. You can take whatever you want. What do you want money for?"

Dongzi was stunned for a moment when he heard this: "That seems to be the case. It's useless for me to ask for money."

Xiaodong'er said deceitfully: "It's useless for you to ask for money, so I won't give it to you, lest you accidentally lose it."

Dongzi nodded and said, "Okay, I don't want it anymore!"

Zhang Xiuping couldn't help but shook her head secretly when she saw this. Her son's IQ is really worrying!

 Soon, the student aid awards were awarded.

Deng Shirong took the stage again and said: "Next, let me tell you about the development of our Deng's Group this year. The first is our Master Kong instant noodles. According to the survey, the instant noodles produced by our Master Kong instant noodles factory have occupied at least 80% of the national instant noodles market. In addition to Some instant noodle brands still have some sales in certain areas, but most of the instant noodle brands have been squeezed out by Master Kong and can no longer continue to operate.

 At present, Master Kong’s instant noodle factory is the group’s most profitable product.

  Secondly, it’s eight-treasure porridge…”

On the stage, Deng Shirong briefly summarized the development of Deng Group this year, which products are the most profitable, and which products are being vigorously promoted. He briefly told the clan members about it.

“Next, let me tell you about the main developments of the group next year.”

Deng Shirong said: "Next year, other projects will proceed as planned, and Deng's Real Estate is also preparing to develop residential communities in Guangzhou. Anyone who wants to buy a house in Guangzhou can pay attention to the development progress of our own properties."

Hearing this, only a few tribesmen who plan to do business in Guangzhou and have relatives in Guangzhou expressed interest. Other tribesmen are not very interested in buying houses in Guangzhou.

 After all, in this era, everyone considers its practicality when buying a house, and there is no concept of appreciation such as buying a house.

Nowadays, every family of the Naye Deng family in the county has at least one suite, and many more have several suites. In their hometown, a group of villas are being built. Each family has a beautiful villa. So many houses are no longer enough for the clan members to live in. coming.

Why go all the way to Guangzhou to buy a house?

In this regard, Deng Shirong is not in a hurry to remind them that if necessary, they can build another Naye Deng Community in Guangzhou.

 After talking about the development of Deng’s Group, next is the annual boom that everyone loves to see.

Although the entire Naye Deng family is not short of money now, Deng Shirong still plans to continue to implement the annual dividends.

 In any case, with the current size of the Deng Group, it is completely trivial to spend 30 to 20 million to distribute dividends to everyone, and it will have no impact on the development of the group at all.
