Chapter 165 News about Wei Shujiang
Over the years, Wei Shuqing has made money, but still lives in a small courtyard on Jianshe Street.
In ten years, Jianshe Street has been completely transformed and has become the most prosperous area in the vicinity.
Those small shops that were full of fireworks in the past disappeared almost overnight, and were replaced by beautiful and fashionable buildings.
Some of these buildings sell clothes, and some are Western restaurants. The white walls, flat asphalt roads, and flowering green plants on the roadside have changed the dingy appearance and become fashionable and fresh.
The small restaurant in Wei Shuqing's family had long been demolished, and replaced by a three-story building with bright windows and clean desks.
This place was rented to a couple from Hong Kong. They were in the clothing business and made clothes with colorful fabrics in the most fashionable styles.
The couple's surname is Ma. Mr. Ma built his family by working hard as a small trader. Mrs. Ma is a college student with half Western ancestry. She has blonde hair, blue eyes, and a graceful oriental look, like an exquisite porcelain doll.
"Business isn't going well these days, but I envy you, Boss Wei. You've got such a great vision. You've got a beautiful house in the heart of X City, and a small Western-style building you can rent to us for our business!"
Mr. Ma has been back in the mainland for more than three years and still speaks with a Hong Kong accent.
Wei Shuqing drank some tea. She couldn't get used to the coffee others gave her. It tasted like black, bitter medicine.
"It's just better luck."
In her new life, she had resources and courage, and with the information she knew in advance and some luck, she achieved her financial freedom today.
But in the final analysis, it is hard work and dedication that have made her career what it is today.
The brand "Three Meals a Day" was gradually developed by her and Yang Liu, one bun at a time and one dish at a time.
Mr. Ma laughed and said, "Boss Wei, you're too modest. Of all the women I've ever met, you're the best!"
As he said this, he gave a thumbs up.
Wei Shuqing didn't want to argue with him. Mr. Ma was smart and always found ways to get her to lower the rent, but he also had a sense of loyalty and mobilized all his connections to help Wei Shuqing find Wei Shujiang's whereabouts.
Hard work pays off, and he actually found some clues.
"Your brother, Wei Shujiang, is now a small business owner. He owns a clothing store on Ping An Avenue in Hong Kong. He's married and has three children."
Mr. Ma held up three fingers with an exaggerated look.
He really disliked Wei Shujiang. The mainland and Hong Kong were liberalized and allowed free travel, and speculators like him, Lao Ma, came to the mainland to look for opportunities, but Wei Shujiang did not come back.
You have to know that he has elderly parents and brothers and sisters at home who miss him.
Wei Shuqing's hand holding the teacup paused slightly, she was not surprised.
My second brother has the brains to gain a foothold in Hong Kong.
Even if you can't become rich, you can at least have enough food and clothing.
What she didn't understand was why Wei Shujiang didn't contact his family or go home.
After bidding farewell to Mr. Ma, Wei Shuqing drove to find Wei Shuhai.
The brother and sister sat in the private room for three meals a day and ordered some simple and refreshing side dishes.
"Brother, I found my second brother."
Wei Shuqing said as calmly as possible.
It has been more than ten years, a full fourteen years. After Wei Shujiang left home, there was no news from him, except for sending money once in the middle.
At that time, the Wei family was overjoyed, thinking that they had finally reconnected with their long-lost relatives. However, the letters and gifts they sent fell into the sea.
Poor Wei's father and mother, they were always worried about their son. Every time they reunited during the New Year, they would have a look of joy on their faces, but in the middle of the night they would shed tears facing each other.
Wei Shujiang has always been a hidden pain in the hearts of the Wei family.
Upon hearing this bombshell, Wei Shuhai stood up suddenly. "Really?! Where is he? How is he doing now?"
It's not that he hasn't complained about his brother's cruelty, and he has thought countless times that he must beat his brother up when he finds him.
But when the news about his brother was laid before him, this eight-foot-tall man was filled with endless longing.
"He was doing well. He opened a clothing store, had a wife and children, and lived a fairly affluent life."
Wei Shuqing said this, frowning slightly.
She didn't understand why her second brother didn't go home or contact his family.
Wei Shuhai was equally confused. He was in no mood to eat anymore. He grabbed his coat and was about to leave: "I'm going to Xiangjiang to find this bastard!"
Wei Shuqing quickly stopped her impulsive brother: "We must go to Hong Kong, but calm down first. We need to make a good plan and sort out the mess at home. It won't be too late to set off then."
Wei Shuhai always listened to his sister. He took a few deep breaths and calmed himself down. After some discussion, the two of them finally decided to keep it a secret from the two elders of the Wei family.
In the evening, Wei Shuqing and Wang Chenan talked about finding Wei Shujiang.
Time is kind to beautiful women, and this sentence is particularly appropriate for Wang Chenan.
His facial features are still handsome and handsome, but the years have given him more experience and a sense of story.
I saw Wang Chenan leaning against the head of the bed in his pajamas, reading a medical book under the desk lamp.
A surgical authority in City X, he remained passionate about Traditional Chinese Medicine for ten years.
"Tell me, why doesn't my second brother come home?"
Wei Shuqing carefully applied skin care products on her cheeks and neck. Fine lines appeared at the corners of her eyes, and her temperament became more stable, truly achieving calmness and elegance.
Wang Chenan closed the medical book in his hand and thought for a long time, but still couldn't figure it out.
He sighed and said, "Who knows? If you and Big Brother go there, you'll understand everything."
"I have to go." Wei Shuqing was worried. "I'll leave the elderly and children at home in your care."
Wang Chenan just smiled: "Don't worry, you will have a safe journey."
Wei Shuqing and Wei Shuhai, brother and sister, bought boat tickets to Hong Kong early the next morning.
They couldn't wait to meet their brothers and sisters and ask all the questions in their hearts.
Boss Ma did a great job. As soon as the Wei siblings got off the boat, someone came to pick them up.
He took the Wei brothers and sisters to eat the special barbecued pork rice, bowl-shaped shark's fin, cart noodles, roast suckling pig, and pork and milk noodles, and then arranged for them to stay in a comfortable hotel.
Wei Shuhai was completely focused on meeting Wei Shujiang the next day.
Wei Shuqing, however, developed a great interest in Hong Kong's special snacks. Some of them she was not used to, such as barbecued pork rice. Although the sweet meat was delicious, she could not adapt to it.
But some of them caught her eye, such as Rounaihua, which was fragrant and sweet. If she took it back, she could make it a signature dessert.
How could Wei Shuhai not see that his sister had a lot of business acumen? He couldn't help but jokingly said, "You should travel all over the country and open a China Hotel!"
