GBP Chapter 709 Real Relatives
Chapter 709 Real Relatives
At seven o'clock in the evening, Yang Xueer and Wang Qi successfully arrived at Pengcheng's home.
One kilometer away from Yang Xueer's home, Yang Xueer returned the driving seat to Wang Qi.
Pengcheng is extremely cold at this time of year. Every household in the countryside closes their doors and stays indoors to keep warm at night. Only the door of Yang Xueer's house is open, and there are beautiful lights hanging in the area at the entrance.
The aunts and uncles moved stools and sat at the door, wrapped in their coats and chatting. Even if their faces were red from the cold, they would not go back into the house, and would glance at the intersection from time to time.
The two earthen stoves in the backyard kitchen were also set up, and Yang Xueer's mother and two aunts were cooking together.
Even though the Chinese New Year is still ten days away, their house is as lively as if it were New Year's Day tonight.
"Hey, a car is coming!"
Someone shouted at the gate.
So everyone in the house rushed out and ran to the side of the road to watch.
Standing on both sides of the road were Yang Xueer's relatives. They all had smiles on their faces and were obviously very friendly, but Wang Qi, looking at them from the car, had the illusion that they were the bandits who had stopped cars and robbed people on rural roads in the north in the past.
It’s no wonder that Wang Qi had this illusion.
There were more than ten people standing on the main street, surrounding the road. Any normal person would feel a little scared.
The car stopped on the side of the road. Yang Xueer got out first. She greeted the relatives standing on the side of the road by calling out their names one by one.
Wang Qi took two deep breaths, opened the passenger door and got out.
Yang Xueer's relatives gathered together and pushed the two of them into the house. Wang Qi's mind was blank, and he walked into the house in a daze with a mechanical smile on his face.
Yang Xueer took Wang Qi's hand, walked to the middle of the living room, and introduced Wang Qi to all the relatives in dialect.
Then, she took Wang Qi's hand and introduced the relatives one by one: "This is my second uncle, this is my fifth uncle, this is my great uncle who I mentioned to you, his barbecue is delicious..."
Wang Qi nodded and followed Yang Xueer in shouting, "Hello, Second Uncle, Hello, Fifth Uncle, Hello, First Uncle..."
After calling all the relatives, Wang Qi felt like he had just walked out of the examination room after the college entrance examination, and he secretly breathed a sigh of relief.
Seeing that Wang Qi was a little nervous, the uncle smiled and said to him, "When you have time, let Xueer bring you to my house, and I'll grill some lamb skewers for you!"
"Yeah, okay." Wang Qi nodded repeatedly, "Thank you, uncle."
My uncle said kindly, "Well, coming here is like coming home, don't be nervous."
During dinner, the relatives briefly asked about Wang Qi's family background and then asked about the car he drove.
Wang Qi wanted to say the car was his at first, but he felt that it was too hypocritical of him to brag like that. If he really married Yang Xueer in the future, it would be too embarrassing for his wife if the truth was exposed. So he simply confessed that he borrowed the car from a friend in order to hurry back.
To Wang Qi's surprise, when Yang Xueer's relatives learned that the car was borrowed by Wang Qi, they did not act snobbish or anything. They were still very nice to him and chatted about some family matters.
Wang Qi felt it was a little unreal.
If it was in front of his relatives, he would drive a luxury car back home, and without even saying anything, his uncle and his family would sneer and say:
"Hey, where did you rent the car?"
“It must cost a lot of money a day!”
"Your family is so poor, how come you don't know how to save money? If the car gets bumped, you may not be able to pay the money even if you sell your shabby house."
……
What those vicious-mouthed relatives said was even more disgusting than what Wang Qi imagined in his own mind.
Because this is how he has been doing all these years - this is also the reason why he has always been obsessed with getting rich overnight.
As long as he has money, no one will have the right to look down on their family!
After the meal, Wang Qi felt more and more relaxed, because in Yang Xueer's home, he finally felt the true family love, and that warm feeling made him very comfortable.
Compared with Yang Xueer's relatives, his own relatives were just a few enemies with the same blood.
After finishing the meal, Wang Qi took out the wallet he had prepared long ago and spread it out in front of Yang Xueer’s relatives.
The elders gave big red envelopes, each for 500 yuan, while peers and juniors gave red envelopes for 200 yuan. There was a thick stack of red envelopes, and after one round of giving out, all of them were given away. Finally, Wang Qi took out two bundles of 10,000 yuan from his pocket and gave them to Yang Xueer's parents, 5,000 yuan each.
Originally, Yang Xueer didn't want to give so much as two hundred yuan for the elders and one hundred yuan for the younger ones. But Wang Qi still insisted on giving a bigger gift. After all, he was going to get married, and he would have to meet and deal with relatives in the future, so he must leave a good impression.
Yang Xueer couldn't persuade Wang Qi, so she just did as he wished.
Wang Qi stayed at Yang Xueer's house for two days. When he was about to leave, his parents and relatives gave him money and sent him to the station.
Those red envelopes given to relatives finally returned to him, and there was more money in them than the original ones. His relatives added another hundred or two hundred yuan to the original amount and returned it to him.
Yang Xueer's parents directly gave Wang Qi an additional 5,000 yuan.
At night, on the sleeper berth on the way home, Wang Qi held the money and somehow, a few tears fell from his eyes.
Before meeting Yang Xueer's relatives, Wang Qi had never thought that the gift money he gave might be repaid double.
Because over the years, every time there was a happy event among the relatives, his family would give several hundred dollars as a gift. When it was his own family's turn to have a happy event, the relatives... would be lucky enough to return the same amount of gift money.
Parents always suffer losses. Every time Wang Qi gets angry about these things, they always say it’s okay, and Wang Qi learns to endure it.
But at this moment, he understood.
When facing those snobbish relatives, it is useless to be nice to them. They will only think that you are easy to bully...
I am an adult now, I have money and I have the power to speak louder than words. It is time for me to go home and teach them a lesson.
Wang Qi thought with a determined look.
This winter is destined to have many stories.
……
Mr. Kong glanced at the time. The flight would not leave for another five hours, so he could still go shopping before then.
The New Year at home is about to come, and his round-the-world trip with Grandpa Sun and Grandpa Liu is finally coming to an end.
I heard that my grandson is engaged, so I have to go home this year to have a serious talk with the girl’s parents about the marriage.
I only have this one grandson, so his wedding must be a grand one!
Do it in a big way!
Want the best wedding!
