Siheyuan: Five mouths waiting for food at the beginning

"Great! Why did you, as the manager, come here in person to deliver the goods? Can't you just assign someone else to do it?"

"Uncle, aunt, I just happened to be at that restaurant. I thought it would be faster if there was a car. If others come here by bike, the food will be cold."

"You haven't eaten yet, right? Come on, let's eat something before going back. You're really working hard. It's been a while since you got off work, but you haven't gone home yet?"

"Uncle, you trust me and promoted me to manager. I must live up to your trust. I'm afraid I won't do well in that area and fail your trust."

"Okay, not bad, not bad. You have indeed grown up. You are not as much of a jerk as you were when you were a kid."

"I can't help it. My family is old and young and they all rely on me. I was ignorant when I was young, but now I have a child. It's unacceptable if I'm still ignorant."

Zhao Shanhe thinks that Jia Dongxu has good genes, and Banggeng has inherited Jia Dongxu's legacy, but he must not die as young as Jia Dongxu.

"Uncle, the food has been delivered. I will go home first. My family is still waiting."

"Eat something, and then have a couple more drinks with me and Uncle San. It's boring for us to drink alone. Ask the driver to run back home and let him know. Wait for the driver to finish his meal and then pick you up."

…"Okay, uncle, I'll go tell the driver then."

"These two are talking in private again while washing their hands. Brother, why don't you let them get married?"

"Jingru, it's better to let things take their own course when it comes to marriage. After all, the two of them will spend their entire lives together. They are still young, so you need to let them think it through."

"Auntie, who's getting married?"

"An Tong, isn't this An Tong who brought his girlfriend back? I want him to get married soon. Does your aunt support me?"

"I don't support it. I neither support nor oppose it. It depends on the young people themselves."

"Aunt, it's a good thing that An Tong brought his girlfriend back. Where are they?"

"Cousin, you're here?"

"Well, An Tong, you're back."

"Evian, let me introduce you. This is my cousin Jia Geng."

"Hello, cousin"

"you're good too."

"Okay, everyone, sit down and eat. If you keep being polite, the food will get cold."

"Don't be polite, Yiyun. Just treat it as your own home. An Tong, don't just eat by yourself. Take care of Yiyun."

Zhao Shanhe didn't know what was going on with this southern girl's stomach. She was full after eating just a little bit. Her appetite was even smaller than that of his youngest son.

"Evian, don't be polite. Eat more. Is the food not to your liking?"

"Auntie, the food is delicious. I am really full. I ate much more than usual."

"Mom, Evian is from the south, they don't have much to eat there, I'm treated like a glutton there, I eat as much as their whole family in one meal."

"Brother, you are right, you are a good-for-nothing."

"An Rong, I think you are itching to tease your brother?"

"Didn't you say you were a good-for-nothing?"

"Let's see how I deal with you."

"Dad, my brother is mean to me."

"An Tong, you are the eldest brother, how can you be mean to your sister?"

"Dad, you are too biased. It's not like you didn't hear what my sister said about me."

"Yes, I heard it, but I am just a little girl, so I am definitely biased.

But, An Rong, you have to be polite and stop calling you a glutton, even though he can eat."

"I know, Dad," An Rong said with a smile on his face.

"Dad, you might as well not say this."

"Jingru, go clean up a room for Yiyun, and also clean up one for Uncle San."

"I know. Don't worry about these things, old man. I will arrange it."

"Shanhe, I'll drive back by myself after I drink a little. You know how much I can drink."

"Uncle San, don't drink and drive. Don't drive after drinking. Listen to me. After drinking, sleep here and come back when you sober up."

Soon, Third Uncle, Zhao Shanhe and Bang Geng moved to the living room to prepare for a drink, while everyone else was chatting with Yiyun. Except for Qin Jingru who went out last time, the others had never left the city.

"Shanhe, every time I drink with you, I feel distressed. Your wine is really expensive."

"Uncle San, men either don't drink or smoke, or if they smoke or drink, they smoke good cigarettes and drink good wine."

"Uncle, why don't your cigarettes have labels? What brand are they?"

"It's a special supply, not for sale to the public. Of course you haven't seen it. Only people of a certain level have never seen this kind of cigarette."

"Uncle, you are still the best,"

"Uncle San, I think it tastes just like that, it doesn't have any flavor."

"Uncle San, I've told you so many times to replace your old dry cigarettes with some good ones. Dry cigarettes are too harmful to your body. I don't have much special supply. I'll get you a few packs of Zhonghua later."

"I've gotten used to it over the years. Other cigarettes don't have any smell. This one was sent from my hometown in Shandong. I don't care if it's harmful or not.

I am already this old, I have a lot of sons and grandchildren, and my life is getting better and better. Even if I die tomorrow, I can close my eyes. "

"Uncle San, look at what age you are talking about. You are not even sixty. You feel good at this age. There are still good days to come. You must live to be a hundred at least."

"I dare not think about living a hundred years, but life is not good enough. Having enough food and clothes, you say this is not a good life, what is a good life?"

"Well, in the future, every household will have a car, a big color TV, and a computer. We won't need to write letters to communicate, we won't need to wash clothes by hand, and the food we want will be delivered directly to our homes..."

Zhao Shanhe described his life in the 21st century in his previous life to his uncle.

"Shanhe, I don't necessarily feel happy with what you said. Look, you have a house, a car, a TV, a washing machine, a refrigerator, and I don't know anything about online shopping.

It is convenient, but it definitely requires money, right? If you don’t have money, it has nothing to do with you. Maybe some people spend most of their lives working hard for a house and a car? Then it will be difficult for those who are not well-off to find a wife in the future.”

"Uncle San, maybe you are right. Let's have a drink, and Banggeng will come with us."

"Uncle, Third Master, I respect you."

"Bang Geng, I've been the general manager for nearly half a year. How do you feel about it?"

"Uncle, I don't have a high degree, so it feels a bit difficult, but I will work hard."

"Great! Diploma doesn't determine everything, but opportunities are not available to everyone. You know what I mean. If you have an opportunity, you should seize it."

"Uncle. Don't worry, I will work hard and won't let you down."

"The hotel is already on the right track. We just need to open branches step by step.

You need to pay more attention to the shopping malls. I want to open such shopping malls in every city in the future.

You have to pay more attention to the high-end market. There will be more and more wealthy people in the future. We have to do both low-end and high-end business."

"Uncle, how to do it, can you tell me in detail?"
