Because the wedding of Zhao Qian and Li Wei was held before, the reputation of Li's Hotel spread like wildfire. Not long after the National Day, many movie fans came here. When winter officially entered, the hotel's business was getting better and better, and the occupancy rate had exceeded 60%. This was something Li Jianping could not even imagine before.
Celebrity power works really well these days.
When business got better, he was also very busy, but he was very happy.
This year it is planned to hold a grand fireworks show on the hotel lawn on the night of December 31st and January 1st. The promotional poster has been distributed a month ago. Since Christmas, the occupancy rate has reached 70%. Li Jianping is also very busy every day, traveling every two days, holding various meetings, and receiving people from all walks of life. While he is so busy, he can rarely sit down and have a quiet meal with his family.
This year’s work ended on the 30th. The recording of the last program of the year ended on the 30th. It was already 5:30 in the afternoon when he walked out of the TV station. Li Wei was eager to see his family, so he didn’t go home and drove the car directly. Go back to Huiliang at high speed.
At that time, Liu Chunzhi was checking the sanitary conditions of the kitchen, Yang Man was helping Yinyin with her homework, and Li Jianping had not returned from a business trip.
It was not eight o'clock when Li Wei arrived home. She heard her sister-in-law getting angry before she even entered the living room, and she secretly wondered what was going on. When she pushed the door open and walked in, she saw Yang Man scolding Yin Yin, while Yin Yin drooped her little head and felt endless grievances.
Li Wei greeted: "Sister-in-law, I'm back."
Yang Man turned around and saw Li Wei, and said happily: "Wei Wei is back."
Yinyin glanced at Li Wei pitifully, and Li Wei received her signal for help. She walked over and took Yang Man's arm enthusiastically. Yang Man glanced at the door and asked doubtfully: "You came back alone? "
"Yes, Zhao Qian can't escape from the crew. Where is our mother? Where is the eldest brother?"
"Mom went to the kitchen. Jianping went to the market next door to buy things. He won't be back until tomorrow. You drove your own car, right? You haven't eaten yet, have you? I'll go find something to eat for you."
Li smiled and said, "I'll go look for something delicious myself, so I don't need to worry, sister-in-law."
Liu Chunzhi must have been happy to see her daughter suddenly come back. She personally made a plate of soy sauce fried rice for her daughter. Although it is plain fried rice, the separated rice grains, with the aroma of soy sauce and the sweetness of lard, instantly evoked memories of her childhood.
That night Li Wei slept in his mother's room, and the two of them were talking on the bed. Liu Chunzhi naturally asked about Zhao Qian's current situation, and Li Wei told his mother: "Zhao Qian will be busy for half a year, and he won't have time to rest for half a year. I should have a short break when the drama is finished.”
"He won't come back for the New Year?"
Li Wei said: "Probably."
Liu Chunzhi felt very sorry to hear that she had replaced her daughter: "It doesn't matter whether you get married or not."
Li Wei said: "Mom, it's okay for me to live alone. I've long been used to it."
"Let's raise a child. If you have to go to work and don't have the energy to take care of the child, I will help you raise it."
"Mom, neither Zhao Qian nor I are suitable to raise children in this situation. Let's wait and see again in a few years."
When Liu Chunzhi heard this, she curled her lips and said: "You still think you are very young, just in your early twenties. You have even passed your thirty-first birthday. If you don't have children, you will be an older pregnant woman in the future. It will be very difficult for older pregnant women to give birth." of."
Sure enough, if you don’t have a partner yet, you will be urged to go on a blind date. If you have a partner, you will be urged to get married. After getting married, you will have a baby. How long will it take? His mother's words were well-intentioned, but Li Wei only listened quietly without making a clear statement.
Liu Chunzhi was not very satisfied with Zhao Qian to begin with, and now that she couldn't see him a few times throughout the year, she felt even more disgusted.
"It's not good for the young couple to be separated for such a long time, not to mention that he is in that circle, so aren't you worried?"
"It's not like he just debuted and can't withstand all kinds of temptations. Mom, in marriage, you should trust each other and give each other a sense of security. If he couldn't give me a sense of security, I wouldn't marry him."
"The problem is that you rarely see other people now. Do you feel safe?"
Li Wei was speechless when faced with his mother's questioning. Later, he made his attitude clear: "It's no use if Mom urges me to have a baby, at least not now."
When her daughter was stubborn, she wouldn't listen to anything. Although Liu Chunzhi was helpless, she couldn't do anything to Li Wei. Later she also gave in: "I can't say much about your current state. After all, Zhao Qian is away from home and you spend less time together, but you can't. This is not an option for a long time. I will give you a deadline and you must give birth to a child before you are thirty-five. "
Li Wei really couldn't take advantage of his mother, so he had no choice but to agree casually.
"Will the second brother come back for the Chinese New Year this year?"
"I asked him on the phone when he called me a few days ago. He said he wanted to come back, but he was afraid he would change his mind. He is a doctor now and has many things to do, so I didn't force him. It's just that he..." Liu Chunzhi said Then he sighed again and said: "You are in your thirties, but you don't look worried at all. Do you really want to be a bachelor for the rest of your life? You have been in the capital for a year and you haven't found a satisfactory woman?"
Li smiled and said: "Second brother is usually very busy, so he doesn't bother to look at those young and beautiful women."
Because of the relationship between the Qi family, Liu Chunzhi did not dare to interfere too much with Li Jianbo's marriage. Although he often urged her, she always just talked about it, but did not dare to actually arrange a blind date for Jianbo.
Jianping returned home only in the afternoon of the next day.
Family reunions are a joy. Although the Li family is still used to celebrating the Spring Festival, they have also taken New Year's Day seriously in the past two years. Liu Chunzhi cooked herself and made several special dishes.
The family had finished their meal, and by nine o'clock in the evening, the lawn had already been decorated, and the grand fireworks show was about to begin.
According to Jian Ping, the fireworks used in the two nights cost tens of thousands of yuan, just to build momentum.
Li Wei feels that his eldest brother is becoming more and more business-minded. As long as the general direction does not deviate, the hotel will definitely get better and better in the future under his management.
"Brother, our hotel has just been officially open for a year. The turnover we have today is due to your good management. It will definitely be better in the future."
Li Jianping lit a cigarette in front of Li Wei and said, "Thanks to that wedding, Zhao Qian's reputation is really good. Weiwei, fortunately you chose to hold the wedding at home and didn't take advantage of others."
"Our family happens to be doing this. If it was still a small hotel, it probably wouldn't be possible. My eldest brother seized the opportunity very well."
The next day when everyone was having breakfast together, Yang Man suddenly felt nauseous and later vomited. Liu Chunzhi was shocked. She pulled Jianping and asked in a low voice: "Isn't Xiaoman pregnant?"
Jianping was also a little confused and said uncertainly: "I don't know clearly."
Liu Chunzhi has been looking forward to Jianping and the others for so many years to raise another one, and it seems that it will soon come true. Of course, she is more happy than anything else.
