Grandma Wang Left

When he entered, he found that there were already a few people sitting at the table. When they saw Cheng Xu, they all stood up to welcome him.

Although Cheng Xu had already trained his ability to not have stage fright in public during his university days, he was still a little overwhelmed by this kind of treatment that he had never enjoyed before.

"Grandma Wang, quickly sit down. You haven't been well for many days, so you should take care of yourself."

He quickly helped Grandma Wang to sit down.

Although the fire did not cause any serious damage to the old woman's body, the physical fitness of the elderly could not be compared with the young. It might not be a big deal for an average person to slip, but many elderly people might not be able to stand again after falling.

"Everyone, please take a seat. You're making me feel embarrassed."

There weren't many people present. There were only a few people: Grandma Wang's family, her son's family, and her daughter's family. Li Yijun's son was in his third year of high school and was busy with his studies, so he did not come this time.

"Little Xu, come sit beside me. Let Grandma see how your injuries are."

Grandma Wang had heard from the residents that Cheng Xu had fallen hard on the ground when he had carried her out, and she had been worried about his recovery for the past few days.

In fact, Cheng Xu himself found it strange. Although the injury to his face was relatively minor, it had healed extremely fast.

In fact, when he looked in the mirror yesterday, the scars on his face were almost invisible. He could only attribute this to the system's metaphysics.

Seeing that there was nothing wrong with his face, Grandma Wang was completely at ease. She sat down beside him, took his hand, and could not help but sigh.

"My good child, it hasn't been easy for you all these years ..."

Once the old woman recalled the past, she would have endless things to say. She wished she could start from when Cheng Xu was three years old and talk about it until now.

However, when she saw that all of them had arrived and the waiter had started to inform them that the food was ready to serve, Grandma Wang stopped reminiscing.

There were seven people in total, and more than a dozen dishes had been served.

Not to mention chicken, duck, fish, and other meat, Cheng Xu did not expect to be able to eat lobster and abalone in this small county. He was ashamed to say that this was the first time he had eaten these things.

Each dish was the perfect size. In addition, Cheng Xu's appetite had improved significantly during this period, so he had almost finished all the dishes on the table.

Cheng Xu touched his stomach, thinking that this was all to not waste food.

After dinner, they were still chatting.

In the past, Grandma Wang had actually been unwilling to move to the city to live with her daughter. Li Aiju had come to persuade her many times, and the old lady had come up with all kinds of reasons to stay here each time.

They ranged from things like a lack of vegetables, a difference in drinking water, no acquaintances and so on.

However, after the fire, their family did not support the old lady living alone anymore.

This time, it was because of Cheng Xu's timely discovery and rescue. What if something else happened next time? She could not always rely on other people to take care of her.

Hearing this, Cheng Xu also nodded. He felt that what they said made sense.

From an emotional point of view, Cheng Xu was also a little reluctant to see Grandma Wang move out, but this was undoubtedly a better choice.

Thus, he also advised, "Grandma Wang, you can't just focus on your own comfort. They also hope that you can stay by their side for a longer time. After moving to the city, transportation has become much more convenient. Your son will have more opportunities to come and see you."

"That's true," Li Yijun said with certainty.

Seeing that everyone in the house was trying to persuade her, Grandma Wang finally agreed to live in the city for a while.

In fact, it was also because of the serious destruction of the old house that the old woman had no way to stay this time.

As long as Grandma Wang gave in, the others would not say anything about the future. They believed that the old woman would get used to living there and would not want to come back.

When they left, Grandma Wang and her family once again expressed their sincere gratitude to Cheng Xu. They even said that he could look for them for help if he encountered any difficulties in the future.

After returning home in the afternoon, Cheng Xu had actually been thinking about a problem. What should he do after graduation?

In the morning, Li Yijun had invited him to join his company in the car. If it was the Cheng Xu from a month ago, he would have probably agreed.

Cheng Xu, who was about to graduate, had actually followed his grandfather around collecting scrap material and doing business a long time ago. It could also be said that he had come into contact with society a lot earlier.

Therefore, he understood the importance of a good job, not to mention the kind of job where he would be protected as soon as he entered.

Many people said that one should never work in a company opened by one's relatives. Of course, these words were reasonable. However, the opportunity that Li Yijun had given them had nothing to do with this.

The reason why he did not work at his relative's company was that the relationship between the boss and the employee was inherently hostile.

As an employee, if you do less work, the value created by the boss' company will be reduced.

If you were paid more, the boss' expenses would increase.

As for a person who works in a company, was not it their dream to do the least work and earn the most money?

Therefore, the interests of one's family and one's relatives would naturally be at odds. In this case, one of them would not be able to stand it.

However, Li Yijun was different. He was only a senior executive. No matter how senior the management was, in the end, they were still workers.

At this time, his relationship with Cheng Xu might be that of a superior and a subordinate, but they were not necessarily opposing each other.

In such a situation, as long as Li Yijun was willing, he could offer Cheng Xu a lot of help.

Although Cheng Xu had not slacked off in his studies in university and was one of the best in his major, this was the upper limit of his school.

An ordinary first-tier university's reputation and influence would only be a little within the province at most. Outside the province, others might not even have heard of it.

Moreover, as Gao Qingyun had said before, his major was indeed at a disadvantage in terms of employment. Most of his classmates were preparing for the postgraduate entrance examination.

In fact, most people's real thoughts were to escape from employment.

Cheng Xu, on the other hand, had never thought of taking the postgraduate entrance examination because of his grandfather. He only wanted to start working as soon as possible to reduce his grandfather's burden and contribute to the family.

It was a pity that his grandfather had to raise him, and still could not wait until the day he could enjoy his life.

After thinking for a long time, Cheng Xu decided to give up on long-term thinking.

For now, there was an extremely important key point ahead, and that was what exactly was in the Mysterious Shop that Cheng Xu would unlock after collecting 100 grams of gold?

Money? Skills? Technology? Mystical items? Or even immortal cultivation techniques?

Cheng Xu had made a lot of guesses, but he did not have many clues.

He decided not to think about it. What if he was rewarded with just a few small goals? Then what was the point of working?

"I'm going to sleep!"
