Financial freedom starts with smiling at life

Chapter 253 My Favorite Male Best Friend
In Jiang Beicheng's impression, Liu Sanmei has always been a cheerful and optimistic woman.

I even think she is too optimistic sometimes.

He is also stubborn and never admits defeat.

So Jiang Beicheng was surprised by the depressed mood she showed on the phone today.

If something devastating hadn't happened to her, Sanmei wouldn't have spoken to him like that.

If you recognize someone as your best friend and take their first time, you must go and comfort them.

Jiang Beicheng asked Shen Jun to postpone the courses at the aviation school, packed up simply, and rode his Harley out.

When passing by a flower shop, I didn’t forget to buy a bouquet of tulips, her natal flower, for my third sister.

It blooms most beautifully this season.

I went to her internet-famous barbecue restaurant, but it wasn't open yet. It usually opens from the afternoon until late at night.

She sat alone on the viewing terrace, her chin supported by her hands, staring at the flowing river in a daze.

The third sister has a quiet side.

Jiang Beicheng saw him once in Sanya.

This is the second time I've seen her so quiet.

"Even when you're in a bad mood, you can't forget to make money!" Jiang Beicheng walked over and said, "You still have to come over to open for business."

Liu Shuyun turned around.

"April tulips have no time to be sad, because they are in full bloom and enjoying people's admiring gazes." Jiang Beicheng handed the flowers over and coaxed.

Liu Shuyun looked at Jiangbei City and pouted.

I can't stand such high-level coaxing quotes.

With a cry of "Wow~", she hugged Jiang Beicheng's waist.

The way the third sister cries out loud is also very comical and makes people laugh.

She is a person who spreads happiness.

In the past, Jiang Beicheng would definitely tease her with a smile.

But today my bestie was too excited.

He held her quietly for a while.

After she gradually calmed down, he brought a chair over and sat with her.

"Has your self-esteem been hurt by what your family said again?"

When in Sanya, Jiang Beicheng heard her talk about her relationship with her family.

The whole family has some prejudice against her.

But she did not give up on proving herself in front of them and was eager to gain her family's approval.

I guess I was provoked by their words again.

There are not many things that can make Liu Sanmei sad.

Even if there was, she wouldn't admit it.

She is a woman who would not admit that she gave it even if she wore it.

She even believed that as long as she was with one man for her whole life, she would always be a virgin.

Liu Shuyun held Jiang Beicheng's hand and wiped her tears with his sleeve.

"Jiang Jiang, I suddenly feel like I'm a child picked up and raised by my parents!"

She cried so comically just now that Jiang Beicheng held back.

But I really couldn't help but say this.

A smile appeared on his face.

But he didn't interrupt her.

Liu Shuyun confided in her male best friend: "A few days ago, I went back to visit my parents and told them about opening a second store.

They denied me in various ways, saying that I was just lucky and made a little money by opening a store. They also told me not to mistake luck for ability and to be content... these words.

They don't see my efforts at all.

It has been like this since I was a child. Whenever my eldest and second sisters achieve something, I will praise them a lot.

The achievements I made through hard work were always denied by them.

I have always been thinking about making more money so that they can enjoy more.

I'm so stupid."

Jiang Beicheng said: "Since you don't accept your filial piety, let your elder sister and second sister take care of him."

Liu Shuyun: "They are not, the two brothers-in-law are very arrogant.

Besides, my parents never talk to them proactively. Whenever there are any troubles at home, they always come to me.

Whenever they have nothing to do, they praise how outstanding their two daughters are and how great their two sons-in-law are."

Jiang Beicheng shook his head and said with a smile: "You are just worrying about nothing."

Liu Shuyun nodded: "I feel more and more that I am being foolishly filial.

What broke me the most this time was my elder brother-in-law.

When I bought that car, there was a strange noise from the door. I went to the 4S shop to check it several times and dismantled it twice but the problem was not solved. I thought that since he was a policeman, I hoped he could help me negotiate.

When I called him, he told me directly that if there was a dispute, I should go to the local police station to report it, and if I wanted to protect my rights, I should find a lawyer.

He also reminded me not to post online to guide public opinion, otherwise I would be punished.

Or my family?
My two brothers-in-law have always looked down on me.

I feel ashamed to have a sister-in-law like me."

Jiang Beicheng asked, "Is your brother-in-law in the bureau?"

Liu Shuyun shook his head: "Deputy director of the street police station."

"What does your second brother-in-law do for a living?"

Liu Shuyun: "Like my second sister, they are both doctors of medicine and work in hospitals. My second sister works in a top-level hospital in the city, and my second brother-in-law works in a private hospital."

"I can understand your parents now." Jiang Beicheng said.

This situation is very common in rural families.

When my children were young, I hoped they would grow up to be successful and I also looked forward to enjoying a peaceful life in the future.

But when the children really grow up, you will find that there is a distance between you and them, and you have to be cautious when speaking to them. Sometimes being too enthusiastic is a mistake.

This is probably how Liu Shuyun's elder and second sisters get along with their parents now.

What’s more, my parents became even more frightened since my two brothers-in-law were doing pretty well.

He only finds his presence through his youngest daughter. When he speaks, he uses the typical elder style, either teaching or guiding.

Because he was not a good student since childhood, he was somewhat prejudiced against his third sister.

The better the third sister lived, the more ashamed they were to see her.

So he took advantage of the third sister's foolish filial piety and suppressed her as much as possible.

Liu Shuyun looked at Jiangbei City.

Jiang Beicheng joked, "Where did that rebellious spirit you had when you were studying go?"

"What do you mean, Jiang Jiang?"

"When children are rebellious, parents will at most say they are not capable of anything, but they will ignore what they say.

But if the elderly are rebellious, especially in families like your eldest and second sisters who are experiencing a more severe midlife crisis, it will half kill them."

Liu Shuyun stared at Jiang Beicheng with wide eyes.

Are you sure this isn't a bad idea?
"Old people are sometimes very stubborn and won't admit their mistakes even when they know they're wrong. Of course, as children, we can't force our elders to admit their mistakes, but you have to let them see who is truly thinking about them and who is truly doing good for them." Jiang Beicheng explained, "Give your elder and second sisters more opportunities to fulfill their filial duties."

Liu Shuyun smiled after hearing this: "You are so bad, Jiang Jiang.

But I like it, so I'll rebel again?"

"I think it's okay!" Jiang Beicheng asked again, "Which private hospital does your second brother-in-law work in?"

"Third Hospital!"

"The Third Affiliated Hospital of Jiangnan Medical University is labeled a public tertiary hospital, but it is still a private hospital in nature." Jiang Beicheng said: "But the medical level is still relatively high.

Jiangnan Medical University has invested in the company, and they have also recruited a large number of talents from other top-tier hospitals.”

"Yes, my second brother-in-law was poached from a top-tier hospital."

Jiang Beicheng smiled and said, "The private equity fund I founded has a new partner who is very good at investing in Internet technology and biomedicine.

The project he discussed with me on his first day at the company was the acquisition of the Third Hospital.

We are currently discussing cooperation with a company in Dalian and are preparing to invest in and acquire the Third Hospital.”

Liu Shuyun looked at Jiang Beicheng in surprise: "I heard my second brother-in-law mentioned that the previous shareholder seemed to have been imprisoned for illegal crimes.

The top management of the three hospitals has been attracting investors.”

Jiang Beicheng nodded.

"So, you will be my second brother-in-law's boss in the future." Liu Shuyun smiled and suddenly felt like straightening his back.

"You can say that!" Jiang Beicheng teased her with a smile, "You don't have to be timid and keep your head down in front of your family in the future.

There are thousands of roads, each with its own way, and no one road is necessarily the best.

Making yourself better is the right way!
To put it another way, your deputy director's brother-in-law is so arrogant in front of you, but what about those entrepreneurs in the General Chamber of Commerce?
He can't even sit at the tables of those billionaires, only leaders who need him to lead are qualified."

After comparing with Jiangbei City, Liu Shuyun seemed to have untied the knot in his heart.

I used to think of myself as a small businessman. Even though my income was higher than those in the system, I always felt inferior in front of my two sisters and brother-in-law.

On the other hand, if the family has a wealthy son-in-law like Jiang Jiang, the feeling will be different.

Ultimately, it’s because I’m not good enough and my status is not high enough.

"If it was Jiamin today, she would probably just stay with me quietly and wait for me to calm down." Liu Shuyun picked up the tulips sent by Jiang Beicheng, "She wouldn't give me tulips to cheer me up.

Suddenly I feel that my male best friend loves me more!

Love you, Jiang Jiang!"

Bending down, she kissed Jiang Beicheng on the lips and said happily, "Go to work and make money!"

"By the way, you just mentioned the car. Let me ask you about it." Jiang Beicheng suddenly remembered.

Liu Shuyun usually drives the Wenjie M7.

I just had dinner and drinks with Mr. Zhang from SERES yesterday.

Sometimes, in order to increase production, some cars in the factory will have some minor problems.

After-sales service is an important criterion for evaluating a car company.

"Jiang Jiang knows the manager of the 4S store?" Liu Shuyun asked excitedly.

Jiang Beicheng smiled and said, "You still don't know your best male friend well enough."

"Hahahaha, my dear male best friend, you are so pretentious, but I like it."

The red lips touched Jiang Beicheng's lips again.

Jiang Beicheng called Zhang Zheng, "Hey, Mr. Zhang.

I have a friend who bought your car and has some minor problems that have not been resolved.

She is going to defend her rights. I think it would be bad if these things were posted online and exploited by certain forces, which would affect your reputation.

So we stopped her.”

Zhang Zheng: "Mr. Jiang is thoughtful. With the auto industry so competitive now, we have set up a public opinion department to monitor public opinion at all times.

What is your friend's last name and from which store did he buy the car?
I'll let someone down there take care of it."

Jiang Beicheng told the truth.

"Okay, Mr. Jiang, customer service will contact the car owner in a while. Just ask her to keep an eye out for it."

"Excuse me, Mr. Zhang."

"No, no, Mr. Jiang, I should thank you. The cost of handling online public opinion is too high these days. You saved me a lot of energy."

"Okay, Mr. Zhang, you're busy, let's make an appointment later." Jiang Beicheng hung up the phone.

"Could it be that Jiang Jiang is calling Mr. Zhang, the chairman of SERES?" Liu Shuyun made a bold guess.

"His son is the current CEO of the group!" Jiang Beicheng smiled and said, "He's a friend, and also a drinking and poker buddy."

"Is there anything in Jiangnan City that my male best friend can't handle?" Liu Shuyun looked proud.

Jiang Beicheng said modestly: "Other people dare not say, but these little things around you should be no problem."

"Hahahaha, my best male friend who loves me the most."

"We can talk about this at night."

"Great, I'm working the early shift tonight!"

Jiang Beicheng smiled, then stood up, walked to the door of the store, and rode his Harley up the mountain.

Go up the mountain for a cup of coffee.

Spend the afternoon.

Come down later and have a drink with my third sister.
