Chapter 279 Family members come to the capital for the New Year
The Chinese New Year is just around the corner, and Wu Tao originally planned to go back to his hometown for the holiday.
Who knew he would suddenly become a health bureau expert, at which point it would be inappropriate for him to travel far away.
I arrived in Beijing in March, almost a year after leaving my parents.
Apart from occasionally writing letters home, Wu Tao hasn't seen his parents for a long time.
Knowing that he couldn't leave Beijing at will during the Spring Festival, Wu Tao promptly wrote to his parents, asking them to bring his second uncle's family to Beijing to celebrate the Spring Festival this year.
By the way, speaking of this, I should also mention Wu Tao's current house.
Wu Tao has recently received not only a raise, but also a monthly salary increase of 400 yuan from the Kyoto Steel Plant No. 2 and the Health Bureau.
Meanwhile, in order to retain talent, Kyoto Steel Plant No. 2 also allocated a three-bedroom apartment to Wu Tao in the plant's staff housing.
Wu Tao is a health bureau expert, and the leaders of Kyoto Steel Plant No. 2 aren't fools. They certainly know how powerful Wu Tao is now, and for whatever reason, they won't let him have any complaints against them.
After receiving Wu Tao's letter, Wu Zhiwen, the father, went to see Wu Tao's second uncle, Wu Zhiwu, and the two families agreed to go to Beijing together for the Chinese New Year.
Haotao didn't go into much detail about his recent developments in the letter, only saying that the house arranged by the factory was very nice, and that his family could stay with him when they came to visit.
My cousin Wu Gang was overjoyed to hear that he could go to the capital for the New Year.
My cousin Wu Gang is only eight years old this year. He used to like following his older brother around.
Wu Zhiwen, Liu Lan, Wu Zhiwu (second uncle), Chang Jing (second aunt), and Wu Gang (cousin) arrived in the capital on the 24th day of the twelfth lunar month.
They had sent a telegram before they arrived, so when they got off the train and left the station, they saw Wu Tao.
"Mom and Dad, Second Uncle, Second Aunt, Little Brother."
"Xiao Tao".
The family had just met and started catching up when Wu Zhiwen stopped them.
"Let's go back and talk about it first."
"Yes, yes, let's go, the car is outside."
What kind of car?
When Wu Tao mentioned having a car, his father, Wu Zhiwen, was somewhat surprised.
Wu Tao didn't explain, he just picked up two bags at random.
Wu Zhiwen and the others followed Wu Tao to the parking lot, and when they saw a brand new Jeep, they were surprised and asked questions.
"Mom and Dad, Second Uncle, Second Aunt, let's talk about it in detail when we get back."
Zhang Jiale had come down early to help everyone put away their luggage. On the way, his parents, second uncle, second aunt, and cousin Wu Gang were all looking at the scenery outside.
When the family returned to the residential compound, Wu Tao went first and opened the door.
Zhang Jiale had already left early, knowing that Wu Tao was going to catch up with his family today, so he didn't get in the way.
As soon as they entered, they looked around the house and were very happy to see Wu Tao's current living environment.
This shows that Wu Tao is doing well here, which is better than anything else.
The apartment has three bedrooms and one living room, totaling 100 square meters. Wu Tao had already bought three beds and a wardrobe in advance. The living room has a wooden sofa and a coffee table.
The kitchen was already prepared with a set of pots, pans, and other utensils, all of which were arranged by Wu Tao and Sun Jiayi.
Sun Jiayi and Wu Tao have now officially confirmed their relationship. With the Chinese New Year just around the corner, Wu Tao invited his family to Beijing for the holiday, partly to allow the two families to meet and discuss marriage.
Mother Liu Lan and second aunt Chang Jing quickly got to work in the kitchen.
Wu Zhiwen and his second uncle Wu Zhiwu sat on the sofa listening to Wu Tao give a brief introduction to some recent changes.
Although Wu Tao explained it simply, his father and second uncle, Wu Zhiwu, still found it somewhat unbelievable.
How did Wu Tao suddenly become an expert and even have a private car? If they didn't know that Wu Tao had never lied since he was a child, they would probably suspect that Wu Tao was lying to them.
Wu Gang, Wu Tao's younger cousin, had already gone inside and started playing with the toys and fairy tale books that Wu Tao had bought in advance.
Wu Zhiwen and his second uncle, Wu Zhiwu, inquired about some details from Wu Tao and found that Wu Tao was indeed not lying. The two were also proud of Wu Tao's excellence.
Just as her mother and second aunt Chang Jing were about to finish cooking, there was a knock on the door.
Wu Tao then slapped his forehead, realizing he had forgotten to tell everyone that he already had a girlfriend.
"Mom and Dad, Second Uncle, Second Aunt, my girlfriend Sun Jiayi, Jiayi, these are my parents, this is my second uncle, Second Aunt, this is my younger brother Wu Gang."
Sun Jiayi's arrival made everyone even happier. Looking at the pretty and quiet little girl, Liu Lan and her second aunt Chang Jing both thought she was a good girl.
Liu Lan, the mother, had always worried that her son still had feelings for Shen Yuchu. Now that she could see that her son had a new girlfriend, she was naturally happy for him.
Sun Jiayi greeted everyone generously, and then went to the kitchen to cook with her mother and aunt.
"Okay, now that we see that your work and love life are going well, we're relieved."
Looking at his son, Wu Zhiwen felt that his son had finally grown up. When they were at home, they were always worried about their son working and living alone in Beijing.
I never expected that my son, who has only been in Beijing for less than a year, would not only make great progress at work, but also find a good partner.
When Shen Yuchu broke off the engagement after getting into university, it caused the Wu family to lose face in Wujiazhuang. Even now, people in Wujiazhuang still laugh at them behind their backs.
That is to say, Wu Tao has now left Wujiazhuang. Otherwise, if he returned to his hometown, he would still have to endure everyone's strange looks.
Shen Yuchu is now the name that the Wu family avoids mentioning the most; they hate this ungrateful wretch to death.
Liu Lan and her second aunt Chang Jing quickly became acquainted with Sun Jiayi in the kitchen, and the three women chatted happily.
Sun Jiayi deliberately tried to please Liu Lan and her second aunt Chang Jing, who were naturally more and more satisfied with their future daughter-in-law.
At lunchtime, the family was naturally filled with laughter and joy. Wu Tao also accompanied his father today, and his second uncle had a few drinks.
In the afternoon, the family took a car out for a drive, and in the evening, Sun Jiayi's parents also came.
Masayoshi Son and Chen Fang are extremely satisfied with their son-in-law, Wu Tao.
When Wu Tao and Sun Jiayi went to the Sun family's house for dinner, the elderly couple's enthusiasm for Wu Tao made Sun Jiayi jealous.
There's nothing we can do; Wu Tao is just that capable. Masayoshi Son doesn't really care about his own future anymore, but he's very concerned about his eldest son's.
Speaking of Sun Jiayi's older brother, Sun Zhen, he will be returning to civilian life after the New Year. Sun Zhen is three years older than Sun Jiayi, and he will definitely pursue a career in government in the future.
Masayoshi Son himself was only a section chief in the district. In a place like Beijing, there is not much difference between a section chief and an ordinary clerk.
Masayoshi Son used to worry about his son coming back to work, but now he doesn't worry at all.
Wu Tao is very tight-lipped, but the occasional glimpses he reveals let Son Masayoshi know the level of authority Wu Tao serves.
With such personal connections, Wu Tao, being a doctor himself, certainly doesn't need anyone else to promote him.
If even a small amount of such favor were given to the eldest son, it would be enough to propel his career up several notches.
