A great director who grew up happily

Chapter 364 I Don’t Accept Endorsements

Hearing the doorbell, Qiao Yingzi, who was studying in the bedroom, walked out in slippers, opened the door, and immediately brightened up her calm expression. "Oh, the busy man is back."

"You're really at home. I thought you were at school." Chen Jinnian didn't go in directly, but looked inside cautiously.

"Don't look. My mother is not at home. Come in and sit down." Qiao Yingzi let the two in and went to the refrigerator to get some drinks.

After Chen Jinnian came in, he saw a huge packing box on the balcony. At first, he thought it was a large item like the treadmill bought by Qiao Yingzi. It was not until he curiously leaned over to take a look that he discovered that such a huge pile was actually Lego.

"You're crazy. You can't finish this stuff in a year."

Qiao Yingzi handed the soda water to Wang Yidi, and then said with disdain: "Do you think I'm a person with a problem in the brain? I don't even have time to play with those things in the bedroom, how could I buy something like this."

There are many big brothers in her class, which makes Qiao Yingzi feel very stressed. She studies all the time in school for fear of being surpassed by others. She has no energy to focus on toys like Lego, which are extremely time-consuming.

"You didn't buy it?" Chen Jinnian turned his head in confusion, then an answer came to his mind. "Could it be your Uncle Qiao? If he brought such a big thing, your mother would tear him apart alive."

"Yeah, my mom almost scratched my dad's face."

Qiao Yingzi sat depressed on the sofa, hugging Wang Yidi's waist for comfort.

"When did it happen? How come I don't know about it?" Wang Yidi asked.

"It was just last weekend. My dad called two workers to bring it up here. My mom's face turned blue at that moment. If Aunt Tong and Duoduo hadn't been here, my dad wouldn't have been able to leave the house alive."

In fact, Qiao Yingzi was quite annoyed by her father's sudden attacks. Last time, he didn't even say anything and directly transferred 8 million yuan into her bank card, which scared her so much that she almost called the police. This time, he moved things into the house in a big way. Nothing he did made her feel at ease.

"Uncle, really."

After Wang Yidi said a few words, he didn't know how to continue. Although his father also had some problems, he was at least more reliable than Qiao Weidong.

But Chen Jinnian didn't care at all, sitting happily on the single sofa, "Your mom and your dad are both very emotional people. Don't mention it, they are quite a good match together."

Upon hearing this, Qiao Yingzi gave him a look that told him to shut up.

But Chen Jinnian acted as if he hadn't noticed and continued, "Why is your dad focusing his attention on you again? Did he make a lot of money?"

Qiao Weidong's fatherly love is cyclical. When it comes is mainly related to economic conditions. When he was in the second and third year of high school, it was the bonus period of the Internet economy. He could make money by investing with his eyes closed. Naturally, he had time to care for Qiao Yingzi.

Later, after entering the real estate speculation industry, he went to look at houses all over the country and was so busy that he didn't show up for several months. His love for Qiao Yingzi immediately disappeared, so Chen Jinnian asked this question.

"Humph, he lost money in business and even closed his company."

"It's impossible that the business is losing money." Chen Jinnian asked in surprise. A house bought 17 years ago can still be speculated, but there is a risk of being trapped.

"The winery my father invested in lost over 30% of its value in a year. He couldn't hold on any longer and simply closed the company. The money he transferred to me was from the liquidation of the company."

"So your dad is completely free now?"

"Yeah, now he calls me every day and brings me lunch at school. It gives me a headache just looking at the notes on his phone."

After Qiao Yingzi finished speaking, she dove into Wang Yidi's arms, rubbing against him. This made Chen Jinnian a little jealous, and he hurriedly shouted, "Hey, what are you doing? Women shouldn't touch each other, that's my place."

"What nonsense are you talking about? What about your position?" Wang Yidi said shyly. She felt a little embarrassed in front of Qiao Yingzi.

Qiao Yingzi was even angrier and stretched out her long legs to kick him twice.

"Come on, Didi, let's go check out the shops and ignore this guy with a head full of dirty thoughts."

Chen Jinnian felt that he was more wronged than Dou E. He just stated a few facts, but why did his mind become so full of pornographic things? This is not even relevant.

"Hey, are you two really leaving? Wait for me."

In the pet shop, Fang Yuan was helping the workers lift a ladder, and he was busy and dusty. Ever since Tong Wenjie went to work, he couldn't even work as an online taxi driver. He has completely become a househusband, responsible for taking care of the children at home.

Except for not being able to breastfeed directly, everything else can be handled.

But he felt that the entire burden of the family fell on Tong Wenjie, which was still too heavy. So when he heard that Qiao Yingzi and others had bought a shop near the community, he quickly asked if there was any work he could do. This place was close to home and he could run back in three or four minutes at a fast pace, so it was more suitable for him to come here to work.

"Master, be careful." He looked up at the decorator on the stepladder and shouted worriedly.

"Don't worry, it's been more than ten years. It's fine even if you close your eyes." The decorator who was painting the roof said this, then he swung the stepladder left and right with his legs and walked forward.

Fang Yuan was frightened by what he saw. He wanted to go over and help the person, but he was afraid of knocking the person down.

"Uncle Fang, why are you here?" At this time, a voice came from behind.

Fang Yuan looked back and found that it was Chen Jinnian carrying in a box of purified water, followed by Qiao Yingzi and Wang Yidi.

"Jinnian, you're back. I'm here to help and earn money for Duoduo's milk powder." Fang Yuan wiped his face with his sleeve and said with a smile. Even though he was working for several children, he didn't feel embarrassed.

As a middle-aged person with a family, any job that can make money is a good job.

"That's pretty good." Chen Jinnian tore open the box and handed him a bottle of water. He then distributed some to the other decorators before asking, "Duoduo should have passed the hundredth day. I was away for a while. I'll make up for it tomorrow with the gift."

"No, no, Duoduo is shy. We didn't have a banquet. We just invited my parents to have a meal. We didn't even let Fanfan come back." Fang Yuan quickly refused.

"Uncle Fang."

Wang Yidi walked over, greeted him, and explained to Chen Jinnian, "We've already planned to have Uncle Fang be the store manager. After all, we're not at home very often, so we need someone to help keep an eye on things."

"Forget about being a store manager. I've never worked in a pet store before, but I have no problem coming here every day to clean and help bathe the dogs."

"Uncle Fang, you don't have to refuse. You are the only one among us who can come here every day." Qiao Yingzi also walked over and said.

While several people were still discussing the issue of the store manager, Chen Jinnian immediately took a look around the store. He felt that calling it a store was an understatement. This store was located at the corner of the street and was about the size of two or three stores. You could see inside clearly through the floor-to-ceiling windows on the south and east sides.

This type of location is usually used to open jewelry stores, fast food restaurants, mobile phone stores or brand clothing stores. Using it to open a pet shop is like using a cannon to kill a mosquito. Even the monthly rent earned from renting it out is more than what you earn from the pet shop.

He really admired those people and wondered what they were thinking to make such an outrageous decision.

"Jinnian, Jinnian, come here quickly." Wang Yidi waved him over and pointed to the area near the door. "I'm planning to put up a billboard of you holding a dog here, and hang some autographed photos on the wall. You'll be the spokesperson for the store from now on."

"What? I want to be the spokesperson for a pet shop." Chen Jinnian suddenly felt a headache. After all this time, it turned out that this was the person waiting for him here.
