Zhou Xuan and Zhou Guilai were there to force their eldest brother to tell if there was any new progress tonight, but the two brothers together were not enough for their boss to fight, so they didn't ask at all.

Inside, Lin Qinghe came out and poured hot water, and then brought it in to wash Zhou Qingbai's face.

"Daughter-in-law, it's good for our family to buy more shops and factories to keep." Zhou Qingbai said with his wife taking care of him, opening his eyes.

"Do you still want a factory? That's not cheap." Lin Qinghe froze for a moment, then laughed.

"One hundred thousand can come down." Zhou Qingbai said.

"That's not a small tone." Lin Qinghe scolded with a smile.

Zhou Qingbai smiled, and when her daughter-in-law came back with the water, he hugged his daughter-in-law and went to sleep.

Lin Qinghe didn't say much about her. If she could buy more now, then she would definitely not mind the more the better.

On New Year's Eve, the couple went to bed early.

The children outside also quickly returned to their rooms to sleep.

The next morning, it was the veritable first day of the new year, and 1985 ushered in the economic reform.

New year and new weather, the whole family had breakfast early in the morning, then watched TV and waited for the guests to come to pay New Year's greetings.

Ma Chengmin next door brought Huang Xiaoliu and Ma Xiaodan over, and Lin Qinghe went to invite Aunt Ma together.

Grabbed a handful of peanut jelly for Mrs. Ma, and said, "It's Chinese New Year, you have to come over and chatter, Mrs. Ma."

"If you don't let me come, I have to come." Aunt Ma smiled and said, just now she was busy cleaning the pot.

"The business of Qingbai Dumpling Shop is good this year. I'll see next year, Xiaoliu, can you make an extra pot of your steamed cake and send it over?" Lin Qinghe asked Huang Xiaoliu with a smile.

Although Huang Xiaoliu's son is not young anymore, she is still quite shy: "Alright, next year I will make one more pot."

"The price will also be mentioned, and the specific amount will be mentioned at that time, and we will book after the store opens." Lin Qinghe said with a smile.

Because she was busy with something, Huang Xiaoliu was much more cheerful, although she still seldom talked, but she was not sullen.

Huang Xiaoliu smiled and nodded.

"Do you want to go back this year? If you want, I will give Chengmin a few more days off." Lin Qinghe said to Ma Chengmin.

Huang Xiaoliu's eyes lit up. Ma Chengmin actually didn't really want to go back. The conditions in the countryside are too limited and there is basically nothing to do. But seeing that his wife obviously wants to go back, thinking that this is only once a year, he nodded and said : "Then I will ask for three more days off."

"Okay." Lin Qinghe nodded.

"Thank you, Teacher Lin." Huang Xiaoliu smiled.

"Thank you, Chengmin showed me something, and I feel much more relaxed. By the way, everyone is going to raise their wages this year." Lin Qinghe said with a smile.

"That's not too low." Aunt Ma hesitated.

"This year, the price of things will increase a lot, and the wages will definitely increase. No matter what happens, we can't treat everyone badly. Each person will mention 70 yuan." Lin Qinghe said.

"So high?" Aunt Ma couldn't help saying: "In this case, the burden is not small." Even if the prices have risen, seventy yuan is indeed a lot.

"I've thought about it." Lin Qinghe said with a smile, and said to Ma Chengmin: "Chengmin, you are a manager, ten yuan more than them, and yours is eighty yuan, so you have to work harder on weekdays is you."

"Everything should be done." Ma Chengmin said seriously.

"Dad, you got a salary increase, so you have to buy me a football." Ma Xiaodan said.

"Mom will buy it for you." Huang Xiaoliu said proudly, she also made money herself.

"That's fine." Ma Xiaodan is satisfied as long as he has football.

Uncle Ma also came over after a while, Zhou Qingbai poured him a cup of tea and said, "Master, have a cup of tea."

Bringing it to Uncle Ma, Uncle Ma smiled and said, "Your tea is delicious."

"I bought a lot last time, and I will take another catty later. It would be good to drink more tea when you are older." Lin Qinghe said: "My uncle Wang and my father-in-law like it very much."

Uncle Ma smiled and said, "I still have the ones I took last time."

"The tea is resistant to storage, so you can drink it later." Lin Qinghe said.

The old Ma's family chatted here for a while, and after a while, other guests also came over, and Ma Chengmin and the others left to make room for others.

Aunt Xu came with Li Yufeng, and Li Yufeng's man, who was also Chen Shanshan's father.

These are almost relatives, so we came here to sit together, and Lin Qinghe and Zhou Qingbai also entertained them.

Zhou Kai is the boss, so he must stay. After all, it is rare to come back. As for the two brothers Zhou Xuan and Zhou Guilai, they will walk with the old Ma's house as soon as they leave.

One after another, there are many people.

When Zhou Kai saw off the guests, he saw Xu Shengqiang and Zhang Meilian, and his eyes fell on Xu Shengqiang who he hadn't seen for a long time.

Xu Shengqiang was still a little ashamed, this big cousin's aura was too strong.

Just thinking about whether to say hello, Zhou Kai turned around and went back.

"Go in." Zhang Meilian said pulling him.

Now the clothing store is making money, and it has earned more than two thousand yuan in just half a year this year. How much money is this?

But there is no need to look at the face of the old Zhou family.

Zhou Kai knew that his parents would be angry when they heard that Xu Shengqiang entered Lao Zhang's house, so they didn't say anything at all.

Waiting for the guests, it was noon, and it was almost time for those who should come to visit. Lin Qinghe and Zhou Qingbai had lunch, and then went to take a nap first.

I can't help it, I'm getting older, and I wake up early in the morning, and I greeted the guests all morning, so I have to rest in the afternoon.

As for Zhou Kai, he closed the door and came to his grandparents to pay New Year's greetings.

"You have to eat here tonight, and call your parents over here." Mother Zhou said.

Old Wang is also here, playing chess with Father Zhou.

Zhou Kai came over and said, "Okay, just ask my parents to come over here to join the table in the evening."

"I heard from the second child that your prospective mother-in-law's family came to have a reunion dinner yesterday?" Zhou Xiaomei teased.

Zhou's mother immediately said: "I heard from the second child that the girl's conditions are very good. She is a college student and a nurse. Her parents and brothers all have jobs. Both your parents and your parents are very old friends?"

Speaking of the grandson's daughter-in-law, Mother Zhou's whole body was refreshed, and she was a little dizzy after a nap.

Zhou Kai didn't know whether to laugh or cry, but seeing that his grandpa and his grandpa both came over, he coughed dryly and said, "Meijia is pretty good."

"Then you have to know her well. She has such good conditions. It must take a lot of people to pursue her. What a job it is to be a nurse? The girl is only a good girl to learn this, angel in white!" Zhou said When the mother heard the words, she hurriedly said.
