Years: Return to the Leisurely Fishing Village
Chapter 212: Entering the New House and Bringing Honor to the Tan Family
Chapter 212: Entering the New House and Bringing Honor to the Tan Family
The next day, after eating and drinking, the four of them went to see a movie.
Tan Shaoyang didn’t pay much attention to the movie. He just teased his partner from time to time, so he didn’t have much time to waste.
Such opportunities are rare. When we are under surveillance in the future, we must restrain ourselves and not act recklessly!
After the movie ended, Liu Xiang’s face was rosy again.
The few of them didn’t wander around and went back.
In his spare time, Tan Shaoyang would go to the countryside with Liu Zheng to collect waste, even if it was just to broaden his horizons.
After all, this is his shortcoming, and being able to broaden his horizons is a rare good thing.
Liu Zheng has a unique vision and is quite picky about good things. He can tell the value of something at a glance, so he will buy some valuable items unknowingly.
Tan Shaoyang’s horizons were broadened.
“Brother Zheng, I have found a treasure. You have such a good eye. If you keep this thing, it will be very valuable in the future!”
Liu Zheng was still shy at this stage, and his ears turned a little red after hearing such straightforward praise.
He said with a bit of embarrassment, “Third Brother, it’s not as good as you say. These things are worthless now.”
“You can give me a place to live without feeling suffocated. It’s my duty to be able to play a role.”
“If these things are valuable to you, then keep them. After all, you paid for them, so you can do whatever you want with them.”
Tan Shaoyang waved his hand, “It doesn’t matter if it’s not valuable now, it doesn’t mean it won’t be valuable in the future. If we keep it for ten or twenty years, the value will definitely be beyond your imagination.”
“Anyway, if you come across a unique item, don’t sell it. Let’s keep it in storage. We can make a fortune by selling any of it in the future.”
“My vision is really good! With Brother Zheng here, there’s no need to worry about not having money to make in the future!”
“If you think bigger, it’s not impossible to be a millionaire or even a billionaire.”
Liu Zheng: “…” I think too much and have a strong dream.
“Please stop talking. You’ll be embarrassed if you continue.” It’s not as good as it sounds. He is already embarrassed by it.
Tan Shaoyang still praised Liu Zheng when necessary. Growing up in such a family, what he lacked most was the affirmation of others. More praise could make him feel confident in himself.
Anyway, talking doesn’t cost money, so why not praise it a little more!
Time passes in the blink of an eye.
A year passed quickly.
Tan Shaoyang obtained several valuable antiques and would be able to make a fortune in the future.
In the same year, Tan Shaoyang’s house was successfully built. After removing the formwork, he renovated it and coated it with cement inside and outside, no longer exposing grids of red bricks.
I also did some simple tidying inside, and equipped the living room with a complete set of sofas and coffee tables.
Tan Shaoyang picked a good day, December 12th, to move into the new house, and invited all the relatives in the clan to join him.
I also prepared a brand new set of clothes for the old lady, which made her look particularly luxurious when she wore it, but she was a little embarrassed to wear it outside because she couldn’t save her face.
The old lady tugged at the clothes, with a reserved look on her face, “Third brother, will people laugh at me wearing this? I’m old, and I still dress like this.”
Tan Shaoyang pulled her to look at it carefully, then gave her a thumbs up, “She looks really beautiful. So what if she’s old? We should wear what we like.”
“If anyone wants to criticize you, just say I gave it to you as a gift. It’s a waste if you don’t wear it since you already bought it.”
“The old lady is dressed beautifully, and I feel comfortable just looking at her.”
The old lady was flattered and put that thought aside. She was used to the third brother’s kindness to her anyway, so it didn’t matter if he treated her a little more.
In the blink of an eye, it is December 12th. Today is a good day and everything goes well.
The day of the wedding banquet.
Everyone went to the new house to look at it. The tall building looked very luxurious and was completely different from the mud house. They praised it repeatedly.
“The third brother is really amazing. He was able to build such a spacious house in the town. He will be a city dweller from now on, which is very different from us.”
“That’s right. They even arranged a room for the old lady and brought her over. It’s such a blessing to be able to raise such a promising grandson!”
“The third brother is really good at making money. He is unique in the village. It will be hard for anyone to catch up with him in the future!”
I’m tired of saying I’m envious.
Today, not only the old lady, but also Mr. and Mrs. Tan were praised. Their faces were filled with happy and excited smiles, and they looked refreshed.
There is a feeling of being in charge and showing off one’s power.
They were no longer a poor family in the village. Instead, they were emerging and becoming the object of admiration.
And all this is the glory brought to them by the third brother.
The third brother is really promising. Not only does he support his brothers and give them the capital to survive, but he also lets them enjoy the good life. This feeling of being envied is so intoxicating.
Who will care about you when you don’t have the ability?
There was a group of people smoking there, and they probably couldn’t even get in line to stand next to me. But now it’s different. Everyone is coming closer to me, as if I’ve become a popular commodity and everyone wants to have a bite.
It’s just different anyway.
Tan Shaoyang is no longer so secretive and is revealing his abilities bit by bit. At the same time, this allows his family to enjoy the sense of superiority brought about by the improved family conditions.
It can be said that they made a fortune in silence, but they had to reveal it when it was time to do so. Respect is given by oneself. After today, their status in the village was different.
The banquet is still set up in the village to accommodate those who cannot come.
I’m coming over to take a look now, but I still have to go back to the village. The people in the village are all helping at home. When I hire a chef, he is arranged in the new house. Everyone has seen it, so it’s not surprising.
This time I will stay at home and help prepare meals.
It was a lively day with firecrackers going off one after another and sugar cakes being distributed. Everyone who was supposed to come came.
There are also a lot of friends who come here voluntarily.
Tan Shaoyang didn’t make any special invitations, but Bai Mei came, as well as the driver Lao Bai and others, the owner of a restaurant in the county, and even the owner of a karaoke hall in the city.
They are all people of status.
He drives a car and his dress shows that he is of different social status.
Tan Shaoyang chatted with the others without any embarrassment at all, and they seemed to have such a harmonious relationship that the villagers were dumbfounded.
It feels like there is no need to stop expressing admiration. What just stopped has started again.
“The third brother is really capable. He already knows the big boss. Those people came here in cars. It’s obvious that they are different from others!”
“Anyone who can make a living outside can afford to buy a ship. How can they be incompetent?”
“He has already paid off his loan. The ship is parked firmly at the dock. He bought it for tens of thousands of dollars. How could he afford it if he didn’t have any ability?”
“No wonder he can buy a house in town. How much money does he have?”
“If only we could have his vision and ability.”
“Don’t worry about it. We are all family. Do the eldest and second oldest have the courage to do this?”
“If I ask you to take out a loan, do you dare to do it? It’s tens of thousands of dollars. I’m afraid you won’t be able to sleep well at night!”
“How can you possibly make money like them without their courage?”
“Just wait and see. In the future, the distance between us and the Tan family will be so huge that we will be out of our reach!”
How could Tan Shaoqing not come at such an important moment?
She wanted to join in the fun even with a big belly. No one dared to look down on her. She lived a comfortable life. After she became pregnant, she was held in the palm of Xu Qiang’s hand. She was a typical object of envy.
Who dares to look down on her!
If you really compare them, I’m not even as good as the other one!
Taking advantage of Tan Shaoyang’s free time, Tan Shaoqing came up to him and said with emotion, “Third brother, our family is so lucky to have you! I can feel the changes in everyone.”
“Our family is getting better and better, all thanks to you. If it weren’t for you, how could we have the life we have now?”
“Your friends are not simple people, right? Do you want to arrange for them to have dinner in the village? Are you not paying enough attention to them?”
Tan Shaoyang waved his hand, “Sister Qing, why are you still feeling sentimental?”
“It’s not a big deal. The hemp rope is only powerful when it is tied into a ball. Only when our family becomes stronger and stronger can we develop better and better.”
“If my friends are willing to come over, then they should follow the local customs. However, they are all busy people and don’t have time to wait for dinner. I will prepare it for you later.”
“Don’t worry about that. Just take care of yourself.”
“There are so many people here, be careful not to get bumped into. The baby is about to be born, and no accidents can happen.”
Tan Shaoqing nodded, “Don’t worry, I’m a grown-up and I can take care of myself. I’m safe and sound and I guarantee nothing will happen to me.”
“I won’t keep you here any longer. You’ve been busy all day.”
Tan Shaoqing’s assurance was quite good, but the child couldn’t wait to be born, and he probably felt that life was good now.
Tan Shaoqing suddenly had abdominal pain. Not wanting to affect everyone, he called Xu Qiang away, and the two of them quietly went to the health center.
Xu Hai was also sent home to bring out what was needed.
Tan Shaoyang was indeed very busy, and he didn’t know that he had to arrange everything properly. These bosses were willing to come because of his face, and he couldn’t let them leave with empty stomachs, so he arranged a table in the town.
He also asked Zhang Yishui and others to help greet people. He didn’t care whether it was polite or not and could only wait until he had time to greet people.
Afterwards, he led the villagers back to the village. On a day like today, no one could be treated coldly. Everyone he saw was greeted warmly to make sure no one felt ignored.
It was not until dark, after Tan Shaoyang had seen off the guests, that he was told that Tan Shaoqing had given birth to a big fat boy.
The second pregnancy will be faster, from abdominal pain in the morning to the evening, which is considered a quick process.
Tan Shaoyang was drunk and had a hard time getting over it.
I can only wait until tomorrow when I sober up and then send my blessings.
When the women in the village found out about this, they were filled with emotion again. Tan Shaoqing gave birth to a son and Xu Qiang valued her so much, so she would be able to gain a firm foothold in the Xu family in the future.
After staying in the health center for three days, Xu Shaoqing went home to recuperate after giving birth. Her relatives came to visit her, bringing eggs and small red envelopes for the child.
Make friends with them now if you can, the Tan family will be different in the future.
