"What if our daughter ets a bad man? Don’t we have to screen them in advance for her?"
"What you’re saying makes sense, but how can we screen for her? Whether this man is good to her, only she knows. How would we know if he’s good to her or not?" Zhou ngdie’s father nodded and said.
"It’s like when we were dating, didn’t your parents say I wasn’t good? Didn’t they also strongly oppose you marrying ?"
"But after you married , was it a mistake? Haven’t I treated you well? Have you ever regretted it?"
"So what now? Are we just supposed to not care at all and let them develop as they wish?" Zhou ngdie’s mother retorted.
"I think you’re just overly concerned, we can’t just sit by idly; we can observe secretly and then think of a way!" Zou ngdie’s father said.
"Maybe the guy who is dating our daughter is actually quite good! He might be very ambitious and an excellent young man, so there would be no need for us to intervene, just watch how it develops!"
It must be said, Zhou ngdie’s parents only noticed that she was acting differently than before, which led them to suspect that their daughter was in a relationship, had found soone special.
But they didn’t realize that their daughter was no longer a virgin; if they had seen that, the situation would definitely not be like this!
Yi Anguo called his eldest sister, feeling a bit embarrassed and said: "Eldest sister! I’m afraid I won’t be able to go back ho for the New Year this year."
"What happened? Didn’t you tell that you would definitely co ho for the New Year this year?" The eldest sister imdiately sounded displeased.
"Eldest sister, I didn’t realize before, but Ding Jing’s due date is right around the New Year. What if she gives birth while we’re on the way?" Yi Anguo explained.
"Eldest sister! I thought it over, how about we go back at Qingming to visit the ancestral graves and pay respects to our ancestors?"
"I promise you, whenever there’s a chance, we’ll make sure to co back every year for the New Year from now on."
"Well! I guess it can’t be helped; if Ding Jing gives birth on the road, it indeed wouldn’t be good, and if she gives birth at ho, it’s quite cold there, definitely not as comfortable as having the baby in Shenzhen." The eldest sister sighed.
No matter how much she wanted her brother’s family to co ho for the New Year, the eldest sister couldn’t insist.
"Anguo, your fourth sister is here with , she’d like to say a few words to you." The eldest sister suddenly said.
"Fourth sister is there with you huh, sure, I’d like to have a few words with her!" Yi Anguo quickly responded.
Since the fourth sister’s ho didn’t have a landline and she hadn’t bought a mobile phone, Yi Anguo rarely contacted her.
After exchanging their concerns for each other, the fourth sister said a bit embarrassed: "We haven’t been able to repay you the money we borrowed yet."
"Fourth sister! If you can’t repay it, then don’t worry about it, anyway I don’t really need that money, are you a bit tight again? I can send you so more, just send your bank account number later, I forgot your previous one." Yi Anguo responded generously.
"Little brother! I wasn’t trying to ask for more money from you, although I know you’re well-off, I can’t just take your money for nothing!" The fourth sister hastily said.
"I know you’re kind-hearted, but as the saying goes, ’help in ergencies, not poverty!’ I can’t just ask you for money every ti I run out!"
"Okay, I’ll co back ho after the New Year, at the latest by Qingming. I’ll invest in a tourist attraction developnt project in our hotown; you and your husband can work there and make money, or do business!" Yi Anguo thought for a mont and said.
"Little brother! I’d like to discuss sothing with you, my husband is thinking about starting a pig farm, do you think it’s feasible? Can it make money? Is it promising?" The fourth sister hesitated for a mont, but eventually asked.
Yi Anguo was taken aback for a mont; he knew about his brother-in-law planning to start a pig farm. In the last life before his rebirth, the fourth sister borrowed forty to fifty thousand from the third brother-in-law to start a pig farm.
Initially, it was just a small pig farm with only about twenty to thirty pigs, but later it gradually expanded and also counted as a successful startup, making money.
"Fourth sister! If managed well and with so luck, a pig farm can definitely make money. But running a pig farm is tough work, and it’s quite dirty and exhausting." Yi Anguo thought for a mont and said.
"A bit of dirt and hard work doesn’t matter, right? In the countryside, farming is already dirty and exhausting, isn’t it?" The fourth sister said with a bitter smile.
"As long as we can make money, pay off the debts, and raise the children, it’s better than being overwheld with debt."
"As long as you’ve thought it through, I’ll transfer one million yuan for you!" Yi Anguo said generously.
"We don’t need that much! Two hundred thousand at most will be enough." The fourth sister quickly said.
After all, more money needs to be repaid, and the larger the investnt, the greater the risk; the fourth sister didn’t want to rush into investing a million, what if they lost it all?
As Yi Anguo said, pig farming often requires luck; if there were a swine flu outbreak, it would be disastrous. Any amount invested might be completely lost.
Not to ntion borrowing money, even if they had their own money, the risk would be too great to justify.
Only by slowly gaining experience could they gradually expand the farm’s size, and be more confident in its success.
Beginning with a million-yuan investnt, if they lost everything, they wouldn’t be able to recover in this lifeti.
"Fourth sister! To start a pig farm, we need to scale it a bit larger. Raising ten or twenty pigs is still pig farming, so is raising one or two hundred pigs." Yi Anguo advised her.
"Consider this million as my investnt, if it loses, it’s on ; if it profits, we split sixty-forty, I take sixty, you take forty."
"Okay! When I go back, I’ll have your brother-in-law call you, you can explain to him, I don’t understand business partnerships." The fourth sister replied, not readily agreeing.
"That’s fine too, don’t feel any pressure. If you need money, you just let know, your little brother has enough to enjoy life, I certainly can’t let my sisters suffer!" Yi Anguo nodded.
"If others find out, they’d only criticize , not you, for having so much money and not even caring for my sister."
After returning ho, the fourth sister relayed Yi Anguo’s words to her husband.
Upon hearing that his brother-in-law was willing to invest one million yuan in the pig farm, and he wouldn’t be held accountable for losses and would have a sixty-forty profit split, her husband was thrilled and imdiately wanted to call.
"How confident are you in running the pig farm?" asked the fourth sister.
"Even though my brother said we’re not accountable for losses, if you’re not confident, you shouldn’t do it lightly."
"My brother ntioned that at the latest by the Qingming Festival, he’d co back to invest and develop a tourism resort at the foot of the village mountain. We can both work there or open a shop, making money there as well."
"I still think starting a pig farm is better. If successful, it’d earn more than the so-called tourism resort." The brother-in-law still insisted on the pig farm.
"Running a pig farm here in our own village makes it easier to take care of the kids and the elderly. If we worked at the tourism resort your brother ntioned, it would be quite far; commuting every day would be quite inconvenient!"
"Don’t worry! I’ll be careful. Even if losses are covered by your brother, obviously I don’t want to see us fail either!"
