Chapter 121 Love "Come on, it's a rare opportunity for us to get together again, let's go together.""cheers!" Everyone raised their glasses, as if they were back to the time when they first met. At that time, we knew each other but didn’t know each other well. Now we are familiar with each other and understand each other better. Putting down the wine glass, Hu Youyu asked, "Are Hongdou and Nanxing planning to open a B&B here?" Xu Hongdou and Chen Nanxing looked at each other, smiled and nodded, saying: "That's right, everyone is welcome to come and show their support then." "Of course I will. I will be there when it opens." Mr. Ma said affirmatively. "When the B&B hosts any activities and needs singing to liven up the atmosphere, just call me. I'll be there at your beck and call." Hu Youyu promised, patting his chest. "Then I'll come again next year and we can get together again." Da Mai said happily. Da Mai came back this time for Nana. After arriving, he lived in the same room with Nana. He did not rent a new room in the courtyard and he would not stay there for too long. "We will reserve a room for you and give you a discount when the time comes," Chen Nanxing promised.
"Really?" Barley's eyes lit up. Xu Hongdou also nodded, "Yes, it must be a fracture." "Then I want one too." Nana raised her hand. "no problem." Xu Hongdou looked at Nana and thought of something. "Nana, how about you come to our place when the time comes? I'll leave the coffee bar in the lobby to you, how about that?" Nana laughed when she heard this and said, "Does this count as trying to steal Mr. Xie's girlfriend?" "If a man does not work for himself, he will be punished by heaven and earth." Xu Hongdou was not embarrassed about this. Xie Zhiyao "tricked" them into opening a B&B here, and Xu Hongdou knew what his plan was. In that case, everyone can take what they need. "If you want, you can also invest in one share and get dividends. We can work for ourselves." Xu Hongdou and Chen Nanxing have discussed it and concluded that their savings are enough to open a B&B. But since you are aiming to build a chain brand, you will need more funds and can make longer-term preparations and subsequent plans. Nana thought about it and said thoughtfully: "An employee who doesn't want to be a boss is not a good employee. Undoubtedly, I am a good employee." Seeing this, Chen Mo winked at Master Ma. Ma Ye understood and reminded: "Starting a business is risky, so you need to be cautious when investing." "Especially when friends start a business together, if the business fails, it's easy for them to lose their friendship." Xu Hongdou also knew this truth and nodded, "Nana, don't rush to agree." "I'll show you the plan later. After you understand it, think about it carefully before making a decision." Nana nodded when she heard this, "Don't worry, my family is also in business, I understand this."
"The investment in a B&B is not huge, so I can afford the loss." "I discovered it before. You are a small rich woman." Chen Nanxing joked. "How do you know?" Nana asked curiously. Chen Nanxing pointed to the Audemars Piguet on Nana's hand and said, "We work in the hotel industry, so we have a certain understanding of luxury brands." "Although I don't know the exact price, it's certainly not something that a person who was laid off as a cashier in a Shanghai coffee shop can easily afford, as you said before." "If you want compensation, just sell your watch." Xu Hongdou replied. Nana immediately covered her watch and said in disbelief, "Okay, so this is what you guys were thinking." "Why not?" The three of them looked at each other and burst into laughter. "Then you won't go back to BJ either?" Hu Youyu looked at Chen Mo and asked. "Run both ways." Chen Mo shrugged. "Stay here as much as possible if you have nothing to do. If there is something, you still have to go back to deal with it." "I don't have to work in the office, so my schedule is more flexible, and many things can be arranged online, so it's OK." Since Xu Hongdou is starting a business here, it is impossible for Chen Mo to just sit around doing nothing. Hu Youyu picked up the wine glass and gestured, "A role model for our generation." In Hu Youyu's opinion, considering Chen Mo's career, not everyone can accommodate Xu Hongdou in this way. Because normally, in a relationship between two people, it is often the one with less career achievements who makes the compromises and concessions. Chen Mo smiled and shook his head, then raised his glass and clinked it with Hu Youyu. Looking at Xu Hongdou who was concentrating on talking to Chen Nanxing and Nana about the B&B planning, Chen Mo smiled and said softly, "I just know what is most important to me." After Xu Hongdou had the intention to take over the B&B, he has been making preparations these days, looking up various information and finding out about the industry situation. Because she knew some people who run B&Bs and hotels when she was working in the hotel before, Xu Hongdou often asked them for advice on business issues. Chen Mo noticed that Xu Hongdou was busy and energetic every day. It was completely different from her previous work. Seeing Xu Hongdou's shining face when she found the career she wanted and did what she loved, Chen Mo really had no reason to stop her. It is impossible for two independent individuals to get along with each other without contradictions and conflicts in their ideas. Therefore, if two people can stay together for a long time, they must have made sacrifices and changes for each other in some aspects. If both parties insist on being themselves and stubborn, the final result may be that both parties will go their separate ways and live happily ever after. Xu Hongdou, who was speaking, seemed to notice Chen Mo's gaze and turned around and asked curiously, "What's wrong?" Chen Mo gently held Xu Hongdou's hand, shook his head and smiled, "Nothing." Xu Hongdou thought Chen Mo had drunk too much, so she said with concern, "Drink less, don't get drunk again."
Chen Mo smiled and nodded, "Okay, I'll listen to you." Seeing this, Hu Youyu drank a sip of wine and sighed enviously: "Alas, my love, when will it knock on my door?" “You look for it in the bar, and what’s knocking on the door is passion, which burns out overnight and can’t even wait until dawn,” Ma Ye joked. "No, love doesn't last forever, it only lasts for a while." Hu Youyu waved his hand and said in a "affectionate" tone. "A lifetime is love, a year is love, a night, a look, a moment is also love." "Eh~~" Da Mai shook his head after hearing this and couldn't help but touch his arm, feeling goose bumps all over his body. "Teacher Hu, I heard that the number of times a person can encounter love in his life is limited." Chen Nanxing said seriously. "Your love is so short-lived, just a moment or a glance, so have you already used up all your chances of encountering love?" Hu Youyu was stunned for a moment, then burst into laughter and said, "Impossible! Absolutely impossible!" Chen Nanxing looked at Hu Youyu with sympathy and said nothing. Hu Youyu felt a little scared when he was stared at, "No, right?" "I don't know. It's hard to say." Chen Nanxing sighed and shook his head. "Don't scare me. My family has only one son, and it can't end with me." "What era is this now, Teacher Hu? There's no throne to inherit in your family, so just let the family line end and relax." Damai, who was standing by, patted Hu Youyu on the shoulder and "comforted" him. "No, the more you talk, the more worried I become." Hu Youyu couldn't help but feel a little suspicious. Could this be the reason why he had been hanging around in bars for so long but still hadn't found true love? This theory of fatalism exists if you believe in it, and does not exist if you don’t. Once you start to believe and think about the logic, you can always find various "causes" to explain the "consequences." It's like looking for an arrow with a target, and you'll always hit the target. "Old Hu, don't listen to their nonsense." Chen Mo said. Hearing the different voices, Hu Youyu breathed a sigh of relief, "I told you, how is this possible?" Before Hu Youyu finished speaking, Chen Mo added "seriously": "Love and children are two different things. No love does not mean no children." "Old Hu, let's go back to our hometown and have a blind date. As long as you don't have any physical problems, we can definitely continue the family line." Hu Youyu: “.” "Ha ha." Everyone burst into laughter. The usually quiet courtyard became lively again, filled with laughter. As the night deepened, after the show, everyone went back to their rooms to rest. Chen Mo finished his shower and came out of the bathroom wiping his hair. He noticed that Xu Hongdou was sitting on the sofa in a bad mood, "What's wrong?" Xu Hongdou pointed to the bank card in her hand, and for a moment she was confused and said, "My mother secretly put it in my bag."
Chen Mo took it, looked at it, and asked, "Dowry?" "Go to hell." Xu Hongdou rolled her eyes. "Have you given a betrothal gift? And a dowry?" Chen Mo thought for a moment, "How about I take the dowry first, and then take half as a betrothal gift and the other half as a betrothal gift?" "You're so beautiful." Xu Hongdou snatched the bank card back. Chen Mo smiled and sat next to Xu Hongdou, holding her in his arms, "I think you are pretty, do you want to marry me too?" "No." Xu Hongdou snorted. "I will definitely give more as a gift than as a dowry, okay?" Chen Mo said with a smile. "Does it make any difference? If I really marry you, then what's yours will be mine too?" Xu Hongdou asked "doubtfully". "Hiss~~That makes sense." Chen Mo thought about it and nodded, "As expected of my wife, she has a long-term vision." "Cast the long line and catch the big fish. I am different from you who are an air force soldier." Xu Hongdou touched Chen Mo's chin. "Hey, hey, hey, you can praise yourself, but you can't slander me." Chen Mo emphasized in his statement. "Who's empty-handed? I always catch fish, okay?" "Yes, there is. There is at least one every time." Xu Hongdou tried to hold back her laughter. "That's right. When my uncle and I went fishing, was there any day when you didn't get any fish?" "I'm tired of eating it." After Xu Hongdou finished speaking, she was so happy that she couldn't help laughing. She lay in Chen Mo's arms, her shoulders shaking with laughter. "why are you laughing?" "Nothing, nothing. I was just thinking about something happy." Xu Hongdou waved her hands and couldn't stop laughing. "Okay, smile more if you're happy." Although Chen Mo didn't understand what was so funny, he just made a joke to ease Xu Hongdou's mood, and his goal was achieved. Xu Hongdou smiled happily, and Chen Mo stroked her back, "Don't laugh until you get a stitch in the side." "Huh~ No." Xu Hongdou took a deep breath and stopped. "Feeling better?" "Yeah." Xu Hongdou hugged Chen Mo around the waist and nodded gently. "What did Auntie say to you just now?" Chen Mo touched Xu Hongdou's head. "I gave my mother 200,000 yuan when we were renovating our new house. We agreed that my sister would pay for the house and I would pay for the renovation. But my mother didn't spend the money I gave her. This time, she added another 100,000 yuan to it for me." Xu Hongdou also just found out that Liu Guiqin had been saving the money she gave to the family and not spending it, thinking that it would be used for her to buy a house or get married in the future. Parents' love is sometimes silent and deep.
"I feel like they've raised me for so many years, but I haven't been able to help the family at all, and I always make them worry about me." Xu Hongdou's eyes were a little sour, "I used to dislike them using bath water to mop the floor." "Pfft~~" The last sentence made Chen Mo laugh. "You're still laughing? I'm talking so sadly, and you're still laughing. Do you have any sympathy?" Xu Hongdou sat astride Chen Mo and pulled Chen Mo's face. "Yes, yes, yes. Stop laughing, stop laughing." Chen Mo held Xu Hongdou's hand. "You must have helped the family. Didn't you help your uncle find a suitable job through your classmates?" Xu Hongdou helped Xu Jianguo find a job as a grain and oil shopping guide in a supermarket near his home. The pay is not much, but the work is easy and the working hours are normal. The most important thing is that Xu Jianguo has been dealing with grain, rice and cooking oil all his life, and he likes it and is good at it. "This is the only small favor I can offer." Xu Hongdou rested her head on Chen Mo's chest, feeling a little depressed. Chen Mo hugged Xu Hongdou and comforted her, "It's a good thing that you're not too busy. Do you have to be filial to your parents by their bedside to be filial?" "Now my uncle and aunt are healthy, and our family is living in harmony. This is the happiest thing." "With your uncle's current condition, maybe you can still receive pocket money when you are fifty." Xu Hongdou said with a smile: "One moment you are thinking about the money my mom gave to the children as a grandmother, the next moment you are thinking about the pocket money my dad gives me, and the little pension my parents have, you are thinking about it all." "It's okay. The child's aunt is rich, so grandparents don't have to worry about having no money to spend." Chen Mo said shamelessly. "Hey, you've got your eyes on my whole family, do you want to be a live-in son-in-law?" Xu Hongdou raised her eyebrows and rubbed Chen Mo's face with both hands. Chen Mo was not ashamed. "I think Mr. Xu will be very successful in the future, so supporting me won't be a problem." Xu Hongdou lifted Chen Mo's chin and said, "Okay, if I become a rich woman in the future, I will support you." "Then let me serve the boss first." Chen Mo stood up holding Xu Hongdou and walked towards the bed. "Ah." Xu Hongdou exclaimed, and clamped her legs around Chen Mo's waist, "Your hair isn't dry yet." Chen Mo just wiped himself with a towel after taking a shower, without using a hair dryer to dry himself. "It's okay. I'll have to sweat later anyway." Chen Mo "threw" Xu Hongdou onto the bed and said, "I have been enduring it very hard these days." At Xu Hongdou's house, Chen Mo couldn't eat anything every day, and even some intimate actions were restrained. Xu Hongdou smiled softly when she heard this, her eyes were as charming as silk, and her breath was as sweet as orchid. "If the service is not good, I won't pay you." Chen Mo smiled confidently, "No problem, if the boss is satisfied, just add an hour." The tender feelings are already revealed, I climb onto the bed and embrace Qi Cong, The brows often gather together, and the red lips are warmer and more harmonious. The air is clear and fragrant, the skin is moist and the skin is plump.
I am unable to move my wrist carelessly, but I love to bow my head. There are beads of sweat on her face and her black hair is messy. The clothes are still scented with musk, and the pillow is still greasy with red. (End of this chapter)
