Chapter 473 Treating all three children equally
Although Xiaoting and Dongzhe are just dating, they cannot live together after graduation unless they are married. This is not only a matter of traditional etiquette, but also a sign of respect and care for Xiaoting.
As an elder in the family, Lin Wufeng even took the initiative to have a serious talk with Lin Dongzhe as a man.
"Dongzhe, everyone has seen your relationship with Xiaoting and we are genuinely happy for you. But you must understand that true love requires restraint. Before you get married, you must control yourselves and never cross the final line with Xiaoting. You should know what that line is."
This is not just about protecting Xiaoting, but also about your responsibility and commitment as a man. Only in this way can this relationship last and thrive.
Lin Dongzhe listened attentively, nodding repeatedly, taking his father's words to heart.
I invited a few kids to go house hunting, hoping to provide them with a place to live as they are about to graduate and enter the workforce.
Pengfei originally thought that his uncle was just calling to ask him to come and give Xiaoting and Tunan some advice on looking at houses. His uncle also specifically told him to bring his household registration and ID card, so he did as he was told without thinking much about it.
When Pengfei learned that his uncle and aunt were planning to buy him a house as well, his thought was simple: he couldn't accept it.
He looked resolute and quickly declined.
“Uncle, Aunt, you have been just as good to me as my own parents all these years, and I will always remember your kindness. But I really can’t accept this house. I can’t let you spend any more money on me.”
Huang Ling looked at Pengfei with heartache and took Xiaoting's hand.
“Pengfei, your uncle is rich now. Besides, your mother is the eldest son of your mother, and in your uncle's and my hearts, you've long been just like our own child. You're about to graduate, and you'll need a stable place to live in Shanghai to avoid having to rent. You call me Auntie, and that 'Mom' isn't just for show. You're like my son.”
Pengfei still felt unworthy of the offer and refused to accept it.
Seeing this, Zhuang Chaoying waved to Dong Zhe and Tu Nan. "Stop talking nonsense, let's go!"
After saying that, the two of them helped Pengfei to the Housing Management Bureau.
Throughout the journey, Pengfei kept saying he would refuse, but everyone knew what kind of people Teacher Zhuang and Huang Ling were; once they made a decision, they wouldn't easily change it.
The raw rice has finally become cooked rice.
Don't even mention that he's the father of the Great Sage. Just ask yourself if you raised your nephew from a young age, treated him like a son, and had money in the family. For the two of them, this money is just a drop in the ocean. Would you buy it for them?
He told Huang Ling about it, and Huang Ling agreed without much thought.
So Zhuang Chaoying and Huang Ling bought them for all three children.
When Pengfei tightly held the paperwork for the new house in his hands, he could no longer contain his emotions and burst into tears.
Tu Nan and Xiao Ting each stood on one side of him, putting their hands on his shoulders and joking with him.
"Brother, you've got some ambition."
Xiaoting playfully beckoned to Lin Dongzhe with her finger, and Lin Dongzhe immediately understood and quickly took out a handkerchief from his pocket and handed it to her.
"Second brother, wipe your nose."
Pengfei choked up, wanting to say something, but was speechless for a moment.
"Uncle, Aunt, I...I..."
Huang Ling patted his head tenderly and said gently.
"Alright, stop crying. If you become successful in the future, just don't forget your parents. Your uncle and I have no other expectations for you."
Upon hearing this, Pengfei cried even harder.
He felt incredibly lucky to have met such wonderful uncle and aunt.
In his heart, he had long regarded his maternal uncle and aunt as his own parents.
Pengfei secretly vowed that he would make sure his parents had everything they had, and that his uncle and aunt would also have everything they had, so that he could be filial to both sets of parents.
He cried and sobbed. "Thank you, Uncle and Aunt."
Zhuang Chaoying looked at him and nodded. "That's right, a real man doesn't cry all the time."
After buying three houses and completing the formalities, Huang Ling packed all three sets of documents into her suitcase.
"I'll keep it for you first, and then I'll give it back to you after you graduate."
After taking care of everything, Huang Ling, Lin Gong, Song Ying, and Zhuang Chaoying embarked on their journey back to Suzhou.
On the way back, the group rested briefly in the waiting hall.
Lin Wufeng and Zhuang Chaoying sat side by side, both peeling oranges for their wives.
Zhuang Chaoying peeled a segment of orange, tasted it, and found it very sweet before offering it to Huang Ling.
"Ah Ling, this orange is very sweet."
Seeing this, Lin Wufeng was not to be outdone and quickly handed over the peeled orange.
"Song Ying, this is delicious too." Song Ying and Huang Ling smiled at each other and took the oranges.
At the end of last year, Xinsheng Home Appliance Factory experienced rapid development, achieving an output value of 224 million yuan and export earnings of 14 million yuan.
This allowed shareholders holding more than 10% of the shares to make a fortune, instantly becoming millionaires.
As major shareholders, Huang Ling and Lin Wufeng naturally reaped considerable benefits as well.
At the beginning of this year, Director An convened a meeting with several core personnel to discuss whether to carry out a shareholding reform and sell shares to employees.
During the meeting, everyone expressed their opinions freely, creating a lively atmosphere.
After careful consideration, Zhuang Chaoying put forward her opinion.
"I think we can wait and see how successful the shareholding reform of home appliance factories in Guangdong Province is. Once they succeed, we can learn from their experience and then proceed accordingly, which will save us from some detours." Everyone nodded in agreement.
As a pillar industry of Suzhou, Xinsheng Factory has always received strong support from the local government.
As long as they don't relocate their factory or move their headquarters elsewhere, the local government will give them the green light and provide various policy support.
This also provides a solid guarantee for the continued development of the new factory.
With their growing wealth, Song Ying and Huang Ling no longer have to worry about spending money.
After discussing it, the two decided to each buy a mobile phone.
Holding a heavy mobile phone weighing a pound in their hands, they felt particularly stylish.
This Motorola 3200 is not only large, but also very expensive, costing 26,000 yuan per unit, with a network access fee of 6,000 yuan and a basic communication fee of 150 yuan per month.
Just then, the ringing of a mobile phone came from Song Ying's bag.
She quickly unzipped her jacket and deliberately spoke loudly.
"Oh dear, my cell phone is ringing again. Who's calling me again? Honestly."
As she spoke, she picked up the bulky mobile phone that looked like a bricklayer, and a smug expression unconsciously appeared on her face. At that moment, she seemed to be the brightest star in the waiting hall.
She pressed the answer button.
"Hey, Dongzhe, your Aunt Huang and I are still in the waiting hall."
After she finished speaking, she turned her head to look to the side, covered the microphone with her hand, and lowered her voice.
"Lin Dongzhe, don't call me unless it's a waste of money. It costs two yuan a minute. I'm hanging up."
