Chapter 136
Old Lady He and He Yongjun are particularly happy today, even happier than when He Qiang made a lot of money.
After all, although He Qiang has become rich, people have more things to pursue besides money.
Why did so many businessmen in ancient times spend their entire lives wanting their children or even themselves to have fame and honor?
Even if they didn't become officials but were just scholars, they would be willing to do so? Isn't it because of social status?
Wu Shuhua will work at the Women's Association of the Village Committee and become a cadre. As elders, they will naturally be proud of it!
How did the family status improve?
Isn't it just like this, slowly?
"My son, you are now more capable than your grandfather. If you keep working hard, you will bring honor to your family!"
Old Mrs. He looked at He Qiang and was so satisfied.
Now her good grandson gave her a big surprise every few days. She felt that the joy she received in less than half a year was almost comparable to the days before that!
Even He Yongjun, the proud old father, put aside his pride and said to He Qiang:
"I, your father, am indeed not as capable as you. You are more powerful than your grandfather. From now on, I will follow you and benefit from you. Please make me happy for a little longer!"
When Grandpa He was alive, although he had a big enough reputation, he couldn't get Grandma He to join the village committee and eat the government's food.
Of course, there are certain historical reasons for this, but more importantly, Grandpa He's reputation back then was not as big as He Qiang's now.
In that era of food shortage, public grain was an agricultural tax paid by farmers to the state, and the grain station was the place responsible for purchasing and storing public grain.
Every village went to pay public grain, whether the public grain could be inspected and accepted, and whether it would be difficult to deal with, all these required the village cadres to find a way, and Grandpa He saved those cadres a lot of trouble.
But it only saved a lot of trouble. If you really count, Grandpa He's position is not indispensable.
The relationship with the other instant noodle grain station can help people get more food, but that is of great use to the villagers.
Officials are actually not so urgent for Grandpa He's resources in this regard. After all, it is impossible for cadres to really not have enough to eat, and they have their own channels to get food.
But He Qiang and Chen Xuebing are sworn brothers, and his daughter recognizes the director of the county supply and marketing cooperative as her godfather. That power The cadres of the village committee were very excited.
Even if they could not make progress, being able to get their children into the city and obtain urban hukou was enough to attract them.
The resources that Mr. He controlled back then were the real scarce resources for the village cadres, while He Qiang controlled them. So even the arrogant old He Yongjun was willing to admit that his son was better than him as a father
, and even better than Mr. He, the pillar of the family.
After all, this was a real achievement, not something gained by luck.
Praise. He Qiang has lived for more than 20 years. Except for the time when he got a wife and did not make his family worry about how to find a wife for him and was praised by his father, this was the only time he was praised.
And his father admitted that he was inferior to him!
This is not easy!
He Qiang has never been a humble person in front of close people. He put his hands on his waist and said arrogantly:"Don't worry, our family will definitely be a wealthy family in the future. When people talk about the He family, they will no longer mention how great our ancestors were, but how great our He family is now!"
His face was filled with confidence and pride, as if he had already seen a better life in the future.
He believed that he had the ability to make this family richer and happier, so that the whole family could enjoy a better life.
Facing He Qiang's bold words, Grandma He looked at her grandson with approval, her eyes full of expectation.
He Qiang didn't say anything. In fact, in his heart, he also hoped that the He family would restore the prosperity of their ancestors.
But the topics of adults are always boring to children.
The little girl was hugged by her mother for a while, and she struggled to go to the ground to play.
The little girl has become accustomed to playing with the little horse after dinner every day.
Wu Shuhua had no choice but to put her daughter down, and then she left He Qiang's arms.
In her heart, she was even a little reluctant, but then after seeing He Qiang's smug expression, she simply hid in the kitchen.
Seeing this, Grandma He said happily:"Xiaohua, when you go to work, you have to be more generous in the future, otherwise you won't be able to withstand those women in the future!"
Wu Shuhua's low response came from the kitchen:"I know, grandma."
He Yongjun said happily:"In the future, Xiaohua, you can just go to work and let Linghua do the housework."
Saying that he would support his daughter-in-law's work was no joke.
This was also He Yongjun's reward for Wu Shuhua's support for the family's decision.
"" Dad, you said before that there was no sign of the marriage, but now you have even arranged what Miss Zhao will do after she comes home?"
He Qiang bluntly exposed his father's lies. He
Yongjun's face turned red, and he said angrily,"Your grandmother is planning to propose marriage, so why can't I say anything? It's only natural for a daughter-in-law to serve her!"
This time, Mrs. He did not scold He Yongjun, but sat aside with a smile and nodded.
Obviously, Mrs. He also agreed with this plan.
He Qiang did not think that this was unfair to Zhao Linghua.
After all, rural women are even labor force. They did not ask her to go to the fields to farm, but just take on housework at home, which is already quite easy. She was not asked to earn money to support the family. What else could she be dissatisfied with?
