Reborn in 2014, getting rich from the World Cup

noon.

It was another lively dinner party.

"Mr. Yang, let me toast you. As an outstanding young entrepreneur like you, you should think more about the development of your hometown."

"That's right, Mr. Yang, I'll toast you too. Please come back more often when you have time."

"Yes, our Lincheng officials will definitely fully support you in building your hometown!"

"..."

Yang Zheng was undoubtedly the center of the dinner, and his wine glass was almost never empty.

But for him, this was just a small scene.

"Director Liu, you're too polite. You're my elder, and I should respect you."

"Don't worry, Director Zhang. I will definitely come back more often. Cheers."

"Thank you so much for your support, Mayor Wang. Cheers."

"..."

Although Yang Zheng doesn't like this kind of social scene.

But he can drink and speak.

It's easy to deal with.

The drinking party started at around 11 o'clock and ended at around 2 o'clock.

Yang Zheng was conscious and didn't feel anything.

However, few of these people in Lincheng's business community can still hold on to their positions.

Some people even got so drunk that they shouted that they wanted to go to the "Golden Years" for the second half.

Golden Years is... the most famous store in Lincheng.

The man was half-supported and half-dragged away by his secretary.

Everyone just left one after another.

As for Yang Zheng, after returning to the hotel to pick up Zhou Mei, he went straight back to Huinan.

……

Huinan, Hongxing Community.

While Zhou Mei was talking to Chen Yue on the phone, she took Yang Zheng to find their new house.

This is also the reason why Yang Zheng has this positioning of Zhou Mei.

Even if he deleted the unpleasant memories of his past life.

Now he has little time to communicate with his parents.

And Zhou Mei can fulfill his filial duty on his behalf.

Yang Jiahe and Chen Yue are both kind of... honest people.

He is very polite to outsiders, but not attentive to his own people.

Therefore, they have all kinds of strict requirements for their own son Yang Zheng.

But it certainly won’t happen to Zhou Mei, his daughter-in-law.

Plus, Yang Zheng is a scumbag.

They will also feel guilty towards Zhou Mei, so they will pamper and love her even more.

But from Zhou Mei's perspective.

Her parents who wanted to sell her out were definitely not as good as Yang Jiahe and Chen Yue, the in-laws who loved her very much.

Perfect.

The current situation is indeed that Chen Yue and Zhou Mei are as close as mother and daughter.

"Mom, Dad."

After entering the house, Zhou Mei greeted with a smile.

"came back."

Chen Yue and Yang Jiahe also greeted them with smiles.

"Why do you buy so many things when you go back to your own home?"

Chen Yue took the gift from Zhou Mei's hand with a frown, put it aside, and then pulled Zhou Mei over to look her up and down:

"Mom, you look a little thinner. Did you miss your meals?"

As she spoke, she glanced at Yang Zheng again:

"You are so rich, why don't you hire a nanny to take care of Meimei?"

Yang Zheng: “…”

"Yes."

Zhou Mei quickly explained: "I have been practicing yoga."

"That's it."

Chen Yue nodded and said, "Exercise is a good thing, but don't do it too often. Women can't be too thin, otherwise it will be very painful to give birth in the future."

Zhou Mei's pretty face flushed slightly: "Okay, I understand, I will pay attention."

Yang Jiahe, who was standing by, spoke at the right moment: "Come in and take a look. Your bedroom is over there."

Several people walked to the innermost bedroom in the house.

While still at the door, Yang Zheng was shocked when he saw the scene in the bedroom.

A super king-size bed that is estimated to be over 3 meters wide.

All I can say is that the older generation is indeed careful and considerate in their work.

There was no expression of surprise on Zhou Mei's face.

Because... this bed was the one Chen Yue took a photo of and showed it to her, and she confirmed it herself.

The bed alone is more than 3 meters wide, so the bedroom is naturally very large.

"It was originally two bedrooms, but I asked someone to connect them and make it into one."

Yang Jiahe began to explain.

Chen Yue added, "The house across the street is also ours. If you want to come back and live there permanently, we'll renovate that house and your dad and I can move in."

Yang Zheng sighed secretly.

He naturally understood what Chen Yue meant.

He is the only son in their family, so his parents naturally want him to be around.

But the reality is.

If he has no future, he really can only return to his hometown to develop.

Then...it will probably be disliked.

"We'll see how things go later."

Yang Zheng responded vaguely and changed the subject:

"Should we invite our uncle, aunt, and others to come over to warm us up tonight?"

Nuanhuo is a dialect word in Huinan.

It means a warm home or a warm house.

It is usually held the night before the housewarming party, when relatives and friends are invited to come over to the new house to eat, drink, have fun, and have a great time.

According to the customs of their hometown in the countryside, the party has to be lively all night long, which means... all night long.

The human relationships in many small places are so important that it is difficult for young people today to understand.

Even if the other person is obviously not a good person.

The elders also hate it very much.

But generally, superficial harmony is maintained.

They would never even think about things like breaking off relations.

A big part of the reason is that from ancient times to the present, various customs established based on clan relationships require everyone to help each other and no one can do without each other.

Take Yangzhai Village, Yang Zheng’s hometown, for example.

Matters such as weddings and funerals cannot be separated from the mutual support of relatives.

The man who is getting married wants as many people as possible to come and pick up the bride; the more lively and the more prestigious it is.

The bride's family wants as many people as possible to come to see her off, and the more lively and prestigious it is.

If you have two or three kittens and you don't show off enough, you will be laughed at.

Even the other party may have some opinions when they see that your home is so deserted.

There have been cases where marriages have been ruined because of this.

It's not an exaggeration.

People fight for a breath.

Many people live their entire lives concerned with "face".

There are also funerals.

The night before the funeral should be grand and lively, with people beating drums and gongs all night long.

If you don't make a fuss, you'll lose face.

It even led to the development of professional "funeral bands".

Then a strange sight occurred: someone died in the family, but everyone was singing and dancing in the mourning hall, almost having a disco.

It's hard to understand.

But...it's really the custom.

When Yang Zheng's grandfather passed away, the night before the funeral, those people made him really upset.

In the end, it was his third uncle Yang Jiawang who told him a truth: send off a funeral with joy.

Being lively and cheerful does not mean being disrespectful, but rather sending off the elderly in a joyful atmosphere, indicating that the elderly have died of old age and had a fulfilling life.

There is certainly nothing wrong with the original intention of this concept.

But in the later development, it undoubtedly changed a bit.

It has become a kind of comparison of "the more people, the more prosperous the family".

It seems that whoever has the most fun will have more face.

This also applies to moving into a new house.

The main point is to make it lively.

"Well, I told them that we'll go to Helinlou for dinner tonight, and then they can all come together."

Yang Jiahe replied.

Yang Zheng nodded slightly and wanted to say something, but finally closed his mouth.

In fact, if you think about it, you can understand it - pretending to be cool.

We strive to make everything lively and exciting, just to declare to others: our family is prosperous.

And who can resist the joy of pretending to be cool?
