Chapter 254 Grandpa passes away
Lin Moxiao took a deep breath helplessly. It seemed that his behavior had left her with a psychological trauma. Seeing that she refused to cooperate, he stopped forcing her.
Jiang Shuya picked up her cell phone, went to the living room and called her cousin to inquire about the progress of the investigation. However, her cousin said that it was difficult to explain over the phone and that they needed to meet in private to talk.
At this time, Huang Minghao's name appeared on the phone. Jiang Shuya was stunned for a moment, hesitated for a few seconds, and pressed the answer button.
"Xiaoya, Grandpa is gone. Can you bring Tangtang to Jiangdao?"
Jiang Shuya was shocked and kept silent for a long time. Unconsciously, tears suddenly flowed. Huang Minghao heard her sobbing on the other end of the phone and comforted her.
"Send me the location and I'll drive to pick you and Tangtang up."
Lin Moxiao came out of the bathroom and saw Jiang Shuya crying, with a suspicious look on his face.
"What's wrong, honey? What happened?"
Jiang Shuya cried and threw herself into his arms, sobbing. Lin Moxiao patted her back, took her to the sofa, and helped her wipe away her tears.
"Stop crying. If you keep crying, it won't look good. My wife will become a crying beauty."
She finally stopped, sobbing and murmuring:
"Huang Minghao's grandfather passed away. He was the best old man to me. He helped me a lot and was an old man worthy of respect. He shouldn't have died. I didn't help him. Really, he could have lived a few more years and didn't have to do the surgery."
Lin Moxiao frowned when he heard this:
"So it was his grandfather's family who performed the surgery on him, right? You can't stop it. You are not a direct relative. The old man has a son. They are the ones who decide the old man's life and death. You said it but they didn't listen. I don't think the grandfather will blame you. It's not your fault."
Lin Moxiao helped her analyze and asked,
"You are going to see him off, right? In what capacity, as his granddaughter-in-law?"
Jiang Shuya nodded and looked into his eyes: "You don't mind, do you?"
Lin Moxiao responded with a smile,
"Why would I bother with a deceased old man? You're overthinking it. But I have a suggestion. You should take Jiang Shuhuai with you!"
Jiang Shuya understood what he meant, and soon remembered that Huang Minghao’s grandfather had passed away, and her parents might also go to pay their respects. She took out her cell phone and called Shuhuai.
Half an hour later, Jiang Shuya dressed Tangtang, and Lin Moxiao helped to hold Tangtang, and they went downstairs together. At this time, Huang Minghao's car was parked at the gate of the community. Seeing Jiang Shuya coming out and Lin Moxiao holding Tangtang, Huang Minghao felt bitter in his heart.
Jiang Shuya walked in front of the car and asked Huang Minghao:
"Can you pick up Shu Huai? He lives in the store on Leshan Road, not far from here."
"Okay, you get in the car first." Huang Minghao took the initiative to open the back door, Jiang Shuya got in the car, and took the candy from Lin Moxiao.
Lin Moxiao saw Huang Minghao, nodded slightly, turned around and whispered to Jiang Shuya: "Wife, call me when you come back and I'll pick you up."
In the blink of an eye, the car quickly disappeared from Lin Moxiao's sight.
After picking up Jiang Shuhuai, they quickly arrived at Grandpa's house. After Jiang Shuya got off the car, she saw the people who came to pay their respects. Huang Li and Hu Jianming both saw her, greeted her, and led everyone into the mourning hall to burn incense and kowtow to Grandpa.
After the ceremony was over, Jiang Shuya saw that her grandfather had closed his eyes forever, and was lying in a crystal coffin with a sallow face. She stared at him blankly, separated by life and death, as if they were in their previous life, forever separated by heaven and earth.
At this time, the eldest and younger aunts led all the relatives and friends of the Huang family in crying and wailing. For a moment, everyone came forward to kowtow and pay their respects according to their seniority. Tangtang was wearing a red hat and knelt on the ground with the adults. Huang Minghao knelt beside his grandfather's body to accept everyone's worship.
"Sister-in-law, are you really divorced from my brother?" Huang Li asked in a low voice.
Jiang Shuya lowered her eyes and nodded silently.
"Are you stupid? My brother is so nice, so many girls like him, and you finally survived the demolition! Why are you so depressed?" Huang Li was puzzled and said:
"I know my brother. He is not a playboy. Although he has been handsome since he was a child, he is a very trustworthy person with excellent character. He is loyal and not greedy for money."
At this time, Jiang Shuya didn't want to attract criticism from everyone, so she just said lightly:
"It's not that he's not good, it's that we're not suitable. Don't worry, we signed a contract for the restaurant. Even without this relationship, I will continue to fulfill the contract and pay you dividends. The dividends for last quarter should have been paid to you!"
Huang Li and Hu Jianming looked at each other, smiled and nodded. They both had a scale in their hearts. Although the current situation of the restaurant was very good and more promising than they had imagined, they naturally had to pay more attention to it. However, if they could maintain the family relationship, they would have more advantages in the subsequent project cooperation.
"I heard that you are going to expand the market to other places. You already have five stores in Jinling. You will also spin off Shanghai Shengjian and open it to the outside world in the form of franchising. In this way, you can invest in your own catering company. Have you raised the first round of financing?" Hu Jianming was very concerned about this issue. Businessmen are like this, with a keen sense of smell. Jiang Shuya also noticed it. At this time, she happened to see Sun Qi appear in the crowd and waved to him.
"Sister-in-law, what's the matter?"
"Well, please report the current situation of the company to Mr. Hu, who is the largest shareholder of our restaurant."
Sun Qi nodded and replied:
"Currently, there are five stores with stable profits. The divested Shanghai Shengjian has received and negotiated with more than 20 franchisees. These processes have been completed. The working capital is about 3 million. There are more than 30 stores that are interested in cooperation. The negotiations are still ongoing. The current plan is to officially establish a catering company next month and start the first round of financing."
Hu Jianming was pleasantly surprised after hearing this.
"What is the company's startup capital? How much is the first round of financing?"
Sun Qi smiled shyly.
"I can't make a judgment on this. The legal representative is my sister-in-law."
Everyone turned their eyes to Jiang Shuya, and she said:
"We don't need to raise funds. 500 million yuan is enough for the start-up capital."
Hu Jianming's smile froze.
"No way, sister-in-law, you want to have it all to yourself, so you don't want to take us with you? We are the ones who supported you in getting your first pot of gold!"
Jiang Shuya thought about it.
"Okay, since Mr. Hu is willing to continue investing, when the company is established, please come over to discuss it alone. Today is not the right time to talk about this topic."
Hu Jianming nodded repeatedly after hearing this, and scanned the crowd, actively changing the subject.
"You see, everyone in Xixia Village has moved away now. Everyone has gone their separate ways. After my grandfather passed away, all the people who used to live in Xixia Village have come back."
Huang Li held the white belt tightly, frowned and lamented to herself:
"Well, yes, now everyone has money in their hands and can enjoy life. Only grandpa is the most pitiful. He has never had a good day. He died just after the demolition. With such a large sum of money, I don't know whether it is a joy or a sorrow?"
