Chapter 295: Looking ugly but wanting to be beautiful
"Let me think about it, Mom. Our factory isn't doing very well right now. I see Uncle An is doing quite well in business. What do you think about me doing business too?" Sun Qiao is a person with a lot of ideas.
Unlike her younger siblings who are timid and introverted, she is extroverted and straightforward and will not suffer any loss.
"I have no objection. It's your life to live as a couple. Just discuss it and it's fine."
If the daughter-in-law had this idea a few years ago when the business was just started, Zhu Kanghui would definitely not agree. However, after she went to Guangzhou on a business trip last year.
When she saw those wealthy foreign businessmen being so arrogant towards their country's officials, she realized that times had changed.
She came back and told her husband what she had seen. She listened to him talk a lot about the current situation. In addition, An Qingping's business was booming and their city leaders were also trying to find ways to vigorously develop the economy. Her current idea was to be a person who adapts to the times.
On the night he returned home, An Honglei packed his luggage and went into the mountains, as if he was planning to fight in the mountains for a long time.
Before leaving, An Xueyan still asked, "Brother, are you really not taking Xiaoyi and the others with you?"
An Honglei shook his head firmly: "No need, they can find me if they want. If you have anything to say, just ask them to send me a message."
He received news that in addition to him, other people were sent from above to join him. With help, he believed that he would be able to find the person soon.
Seeing that he didn't trust the three little ones she raised, An Xueyan said arrogantly: "Humph, brother, you underestimate Xiaoyi and the others, and you will get slapped in the face one day."
"Well, it's not that I don't trust them, I'm just afraid they are in danger." An Honglei touched his sister's head and explained.
Their father came over and reminded them: "Take these food with you. It's getting late. Let's go."
After saying goodbye to his father and sister, An Honglei turned and walked into the darkness.
.......
Deep in the endless mountains, a team of 28 people was resting in a valley.
In the makeshift tent, several people were discussing the recent progress.
The bearded man sitting in the middle said in broken Chinese, "We've searched this area, but we haven't looked here and there yet. Once we've searched these two places, we'll move on to the next hilltop."
A large man frowned and asked, "Are you sure the thing is in these 15 hills?"
The bearded man said confidently, "We have reliable information that the thing must be in one of these buildings."
Another young man said to the bearded man, "We still have half of it left to find. Kobayashi-kun, should we split into two teams?"
His proposal was rejected by the bearded man. "No need. The time is about the same. If we are all together in danger, we can better deal with it."
After he finished speaking, no one else spoke anymore, and it was clear what status this man held in the group.
At the military airport in Province L, a small group of people were heading towards the small county of Dongyuan.
.....
These things had nothing to do with An Xueyan at the moment. Apart from feeling a little sad about her brother's departure, she was still immersed in the atmosphere of visiting relatives during the New Year.
Although she doesn't have many relatives to visit, there are people who can settle down here.
Her eldest aunt and her family came to pay New Year's greetings, and now she is eating and drinking with her grandparents, so she is considered the host.
"Mom, the third son's wife just found out she's pregnant. Congratulations, you'll have another great-grandson soon. That's why we didn't let the third son and his wife come over today." An Hongyu smiled as she sat on the kang and announced the good news to her mother.
"It's here! That's great." Zhang Guihua happily started to wrap the red envelopes.
After wrapping it up, she stuffed it into the eldest daughter's pocket and said, "This is for my third grandson's wife. You can take it back to her. This is my gift as a grandmother."
"How can we accept the red envelope from you, old man? It should be the younger generations who are filial to you. Mom, please take the red envelope back." An Hongyu refused to accept it.
The mother and daughter argued for a long time before An Hongyu finally accepted the red envelope.
"Just take it if I ask you to. Your mother is not short of money now." The old lady looked proud when she mentioned money.
She is the richest old lady in the whole village, no doubt about it.
The sons are promising and filial, and so are the grandchildren. They usually give them a little bit of this or that, so the old couple now have a lot of money.
I feel confident giving red envelopes to younger generations!
Aunt An and her family had a meal and went home in the afternoon.
That day, An Xueyan had gone to see her uncle and was on her way home when she saw a man in front of her.
He looks average and wears glasses. He has his left hand behind his back and his right hand slightly raised, looking at the vast white mountains.
He recited the leader's poems with great emotion.
"The scenery of the north is a thousand miles of ice and a thousand miles of drifting snow. Looking inside and outside the Great Wall, all that remains is wilderness..."
An Xueyan didn't want to disturb the other person's interest, so she wanted to go around and leave quietly. The other person seemed to have just discovered her.
"Yan Yan, you are here too. I just happened to walk here and thought of this poem by the leader. What do you think of it that goes with this scenery?"
"Sorry, I don't understand literature." An Xueyan politely refused with a forced smile.
Puzzled, he asked, "This comrade? Do we know each other?"
The man didn't feel embarrassed and began to introduce himself: "You don't remember me, we are from the same village, I am Li Xueming, and I have been with your brother for a year.
When I was little, I loved reading at home, so I rarely came out to play with you guys. But we can be considered childhood sweethearts.
...Oh my God, where did this ordinary man come from? He actually dares to have feelings for her. He is so shameless.
He said expressionlessly, "Confident man, I want to make it clear that my memory is not as good as yours, so please don't try to associate yourself with me here."
Hearing her say this, Li Xueming didn't feel embarrassed at all.
He continued to talk to himself: "Xueyan, we are from the same village. I love reading the most, and you are a college student, so you must be a book lover too. We are a match made in heaven. Childhood sweethearts are a perfect match, right?"
An Xueyan was so angry that she laughed at this person's shameless remarks. Where did this weirdo come from?
I really don't want to tolerate this person, so I put my hands on my hips and turned on my aura, and opened my mouth and directly said: "I said you don't understand what people say, right? You have small eyes, a flat nose, a sausage mouth, and look like a wretched toad, but you still want to eat swan meat.
He didn't even look at his face in the mirror to see how big or thick it was before he could say such words.
Still like reading? Don't insult these words. You, who couldn't even get into college at your age, think you can become the world's most talented person just by reciting a few sour poems?
You are really bringing shame to all the scholars in the world. Bah, stop hanging around in front of me. You are really ugly but have beautiful dreams."
No matter how thick-skinned Li Xueming was, he couldn't stand being told that. He pointed at An Xueyan for a long time and couldn't say a word.
"you you……"
An Xueyan curled her lips, glared at him, and said in a bad tone, "What do you mean by 'you'? You're so young, but you're shaking like you have Parkinson's. You're not normal. If you have a disease, go get treatment immediately. Don't show up in front of me. I'll beat you up every time I see you."
After saying that, he waved his fist. Li Xueming was so scared that he took several steps back and fell to the ground.
