Beep beep beep——
The phone rang a few tis before it was answered, and a deep male voice ca through from the other side.
"Hey, Old Xu, are you regretting resigning?"
"If you regret it now, it’s not too late. Your resignation letter is still locked in my office drawer."
"Hahaha, thank you, President Zhu, for your kind offer, but this ti I’ve made up my mind to resign and start a new life. Here’s the thing, President Zhu..."
Xu Wencheng didn’t bother with small talk with Manager Zhu.
He directly told Manager Zhu about Jiang Tao wanting to invest in the company.
Upon hearing that soone wanted to invest money in his company, Manager Zhu naturally beca very interested.
The company indeed needed so financial support.
However, as Xu Wencheng predicted, Manager Zhu was already on his way back to Beijing.
Moreover, since tomorrow was the Qingming Festival holiday, all departnts were already on break.
The two scheduled to et on the first day after the holiday to discuss in detail, and then they hung up.
Xu Wencheng looked at Jiang Tao and said truthfully:
"Jiang Tao, Manager Zhu asked to bring you to the company after the holiday to et him for detailed discussions."
"No problem, thanks, Dad."
Jiang Tao nodded with a smile, not in a hurry and quite able to wait.
"There’s no need for us to talk about trouble or not, no need to be so formal."
Xu Wencheng smiled, feeling pleased to provide Jiang Tao with so small help.
The three of them chatted a bit more under the walnut tree, each smoking two cigarettes.
After satisfying their cravings, they returned to their cars and continued heading towards Ping County.
This ti, there were no stops to rest, and the journey was smooth and unhindered.
Around 7 pm.
Two cars, a rcedes G-Class and a rcedes GLS, exited the freeway at the Ping County exit, one after the other.
After passing through a short highway connecting line, the two cars arrived in the city.
Once in the city, they headed straight to the largest Baiyulan Hotel in Ping County.
Before leaving Beijing, Jiang Tao called his uncle to book dinner here.
When they reached Baiyulan Hotel, it was already 7:30 pm.
Seeing the group getting out of the car, Tian Xiaoguang and Tian Mingrong approached with smiles.
"Sis, brother-in-law! Xiao Tao, Xiao Bing, everyone must be tired from the journey!"
"Everyone had a tiring journey."
Tian Xiaoguang and Tian Mingrong greeted Jiang Tao’s family warmly, their expressions full of eagerness.
"Thanks to Uncle and Auntie."
"No trouble at all, no trouble at all, what are you saying!"
"Mingrong, how’s your health?"
"All is well, thank you for your concern, sister."
"Of course, of course! Xiaoguang, you must take good care of Mingrong, make sure nothing goes wrong."
"Certainly, sister! Don’t worry."
"Uncle~ when can we celebrate your and Auntie’s wedding banquet?"
"Hahaha, soon, soon~"
After over a month without seeing each other, the family reunion was filled with warmth and closeness.
They seed to have endless chats and conversations.
After a brief chat in the parking lot,
the group entered the booked private room in Baiyulan Hotel that Tian Xiaoguang had reserved.
Inside the private room, a huge round table could comfortably seat more than a dozen people without feeling crowded at all.
With different tastes and preferences, everyone took turns ordering.
They ordered more than twenty dishes in total.
Within ten minutes of ordering, the dishes started coming, and were served in no ti.
The won gathered together, laughing and chatting casually.
The newly pregnant mother-in-law and the newly pregnant future aunt-in-law Tian Mingrong got along exceptionally well.
Jiang Tao accompanied his dad, father-in-law, and uncle, the n drinking and chatting together.
The conversation covered work and life in Beijing, as well as the prospects of developnt in Ping County.
After the Qingming Festival holiday, Jiang Tao and his family would return to Beijing, taking Uncle Tian Xiaoguang and Tian Mingrong along.
After Tian Xiaoguang arrived, Jiang Tao planned to arrange for him to work at Jiang’s Food Factory, putting him in charge of the secret recipe for Eight Treasure Pickles.
Having his uncle around gave Jiang Tao peace of mind, and he was determined to provide a fair salary and benefits.
Before going back ho, Jiang Tao had asked a tenant who rented his house to move out.
Once the uncle and aunt arrived, they could simply live in that house.
Throughout the evening, everyone mingled and chatted, creating a warm and lively atmosphere.
The welcoming dinner started around 8 pm and didn’t end until 9:30.
Jiang Tao was the first to step out and take care of the bill; the al, including drinks, cost over 6,000 yuan.
For Jiang Tao, whose passive inco was in tens of thousands each day, it was naturally nothing much.
After eating and drinking their fill, the group bid farewell warmly at the hotel entrance.
Tian Mingrong drove an electric car, taking Uncle away.
She had a small 70-square-ter apartnt in Ping County that had beco their love nest.
Xu Sha drove the rcedes GLS with her father-in-law and mother-in-law heading ho.
Jiang Bing drove the rcedes G-Class, taking Jiang Tao’s family towards the Jiang Family Manor.
A couple of days ago, Jiang Tao had asked his uncle to hire a professional cleaning service to do a thorough house cleaning.
Tian Mingrong also helped by stripping and sending all the bed linens and blankets from both hos to a laundry in town for a wash.
Otherwise, a house left unused for a month wouldn’t be comfortable to live in.
The rcedes G-Class entered Jiang Family Manor around 10 pm.
After getting out of the car, everyone went to their respective hos.
"Finally back~"
"No place like ho, gold or silver, compares to your own cozy nest. Coming back to a house you built yourself feels different."
As soon as Xu Li stepped into their family courtyard, before even entering the house, she felt a surge of joy in her heart.
