Su Nian: "Grandma, this is a bit complicated."

"It's not complicated. Just test his attitude towards marriage and whether he is honest enough. If he truthfully tells you the red envelope and the amount, it means that he is someone who sincerely lives with you, and you can feel more at ease. If he tells you that there is a red envelope,

But if the amount is underreported, or the red envelope is not even told to you, Nian Nian, you have to be careful and protect your own interests."

Grandma is always worried. Girls tend to suffer in marriages, and Shu Ran is a ready example.

Well, Liang Yechao talks nice, but doesn't he just say break up?

Even if Su Nian said that she and Huo Jinyan had known each other for several months, their understanding might not be deep.

"Grandma, don't worry, I know it well. In this family, I will spend what should be spent, and I will take on the responsibilities that should be borne, but I still have to take care of myself first."

Su Nian thought that Huo Jinyan was still talking on the phone with the door closed, so he didn't deliberately lower his volume during the discussion with his grandmother.

Huo Jinyan just explained it, and it was settled in a few words.

Just as he was about to open the door, he heard Su Nian talking to his grandmother, so he waited for a while before opening the door.

Grandma, who was so kind just now, actually used some tricks on the red envelopes?

Su Nian was quite cooperative.

Huo Jinyan felt that if he said this, he would be laughed out of his mouth. Someone actually used a red envelope to test Huo Jinyan.

I can't help but feel a little unhappy in my heart. Who do you think he is?

He took out the red envelope and counted it carefully, fifty-six thousand and eight.

It's not even a fraction of what he usually pays for a meal.

Hearing Su Nian finish the phone call outside, Huo Jinyan opened the door.

Su Nian knew that he didn't hear the conversation between her and her grandmother, but she felt that it was a bit unreasonable to test him with the red envelope. When she saw him, her eyes were a little evasive.

"Mr. Huo, before you took a shower, you said you had something to tell me. What was it?" Su Nian remembered what he said before taking a shower.

Could it be that they were talking about red envelopes?

To be honest, she hoped grandma was overly worried.

But I also hope that this little test will have a good result.

Only then did Huo Jinyan remember that he had actually said this before taking a shower.

He originally wanted to say that grandma gave him a red envelope, so naturally he wouldn't covet it, so he just gave it to Su Nian and let her take it to buy some jewelry.

But seeing how they looked now, he was too lazy to say anything.

To be honest, as the eldest son of the Huo family, he has never suffered such injustice.

The very arrogant stepmother in the family did not dare to treat him like this.

"That means Aunt Zhang is coming to do cleaning work." Huo Jinyan said.

"Oh. Well, since Aunt Zhang is arranged by your company, I will know it from now on."

Seeing that Huo Jinyan didn't answer, Su Nian asked, "Is there anything else?"

"No more." Huo Jinyan said coldly.

Su Nian couldn't follow up and asked, so she could only make insinuations: "Mr. Huo, who else is there in your family? Do they know about our marriage or something?"

"My relatives on my mother's side all know. My father has remarried, so it doesn't matter. Next time I have time, I will arrange for everyone to have a meal together." In fact, the relatives on my mother's side know, and Huo Jinyan just called to inform him.

He never mentioned the red envelope, so Su Nian had no choice but to drop the topic temporarily.

…

For breakfast the next day, Su Nian heated up the pancakes that her grandmother had baked specially for herself.

Naturally, Huo Jinyan's share was also prepared.

Huo Jinyan smelled the fragrance and sat down. He was about to eat when he suddenly remembered the red envelope.

Then I remembered that my grandma accidentally mentioned that these are Xiao Chao’s favorite pancakes.

Huo Jinyan only learned the name Liang Yechao yesterday. The neighbors and grandma all called him Xiaoyan. Occasionally, he would say "Xiaochao" out of nowhere. Huo Jinyan would know the name of his ex-boyfriend by casually talking about it.

Su Nian was eating happily, but when she saw that he hadn't eaten, she asked, "What's wrong, Mr. Huo?"

"You can eat it yourself." Huo Jinyan put down his chopsticks.

"It doesn't taste good? That's not right. You ate well before."

Huo Jinyan said: "There is no need to prepare my share of breakfast from now on. I will go to the company to eat."

"Okay." Su Nian looked at his cold look and thought to herself, it's great that the company provides breakfast.

She simply ate it all by herself. Apart from being a little overwhelmed, she was quite satisfied.

After breakfast, Su Nian went directly to the company.

After revising an interview draft, she submitted it to the editor-in-chief, and happened to meet the artist Yao Qingqing who came over to hand over the draft.

The media company where Su Nian works has long ceased to operate physical newspapers. Instead, it operates an online news official account, which needs some illustrations from time to time.

Yao Qingqing is Su Nian's college classmate. She worked as a freelance picture contributor when she was in school, and she also regularly contributes to Su Nian's company.

The two had a good relationship since college, and now they can be considered half-colleagues, with close contacts.

"Qingqing? Why are you here? Do you want to revise this week's drawing?" Su Nian asked. Yao Qingqing's drawings were usually sent directly to her, so she didn't have much time to come in person.

But every time we come, the two of us make dinner appointments.

"How can I trust you if I don't come?" Yao Qingqing said, "You told me on WeChat about your flash wedding, but I haven't understood it in detail yet. Why is it a flash wedding and a red envelope? Where did Liang Yechao go?

Already?"

"Shh!" Su Nian looked around at his colleagues and said, "Say it during lunch."

Yao Qingqing quickly shut her mouth and waited for her get off work at noon.

After the two got off work, they found a seat at a fast food restaurant and Yao Qingqing couldn't wait.

After listening to Su Nian's detailed explanation, she said: "Liang Yechao is this piece of shit, why didn't I realize he was this kind of person?"

"He wants to have a child and I can't have one. It's true that he can't get married. In this regard, I don't blame him entirely. But no matter what he does, he can't just break up without saying a word, and even talk about breaking up.

Tell her mother."

"I've wanted to say it for a long time. My mother said everything Liang Yechao said. My mother said, isn't this his mother's boy? You and he had a good relationship before, and I couldn't say much. Now I can finally complain.

.”

"It's not like I wasn't aware of this problem before." Su Nian said, "But I used to be too eager to have a family of my own. Looking at his attitude towards his mother, I just thought that it was his filial piety. Where did I think of this?

Where is such a big hole hidden?"

"Filial piety is a must, but you should not be blindly filial. What the family says is what it is. In addition to being a son and husband, a man must first be a reasonable person, right?"

Yao Qingqing's words make sense, and Su Nian agrees.

After talking about Liang Yechao, Yao Qingqing turned to Huo Jinyan: "So, Mr. Huo has a good job and a good income. He shouldn't be coveting your grandma's red envelope."
