Wang Gang looked at his younger brother Chen Xu and ran home carrying two bottles of vinegar with a very calm expression.
"Brother, I heard from mom that my sister-in-law is pregnant and I will be an uncle?" Chen Xu put two bottles of vinegar on the table.
"This is the vinegar I brought back from my hometown. I can't bear to eat it even if I keep it."
Wang Gang glanced at the vinegar. It was Shanxi mature vinegar, but it was no different from what was sold in the supermarket downstairs. It must have been bought by Chen Xulai on the way here.
"Thank you." Zhong Xiaoqin put the vinegar away politely.
Chen Xu smiled and asked Wang Gang: "Brother, I heard that you won the lottery and bought a house in Junyue Mansion?"
Wang Gang frowned and looked at Zhong Xiaoqin. Zhong Xiaoqin shook her head hastily, indicating that she had not told Chen Xu.
"It wasn't my sister-in-law who said it, it was Sister Gu Jia who let it slip once." Chen Xu complained:
"Brother, you are the same. You have to hide things like winning the lottery from me. We are brothers! Are you afraid that I will borrow money from you?"
Wang Gang said solemnly: "Winning the lottery is my business, there is no need to explain it to you!"
Chen Xu didn't worry, and said with a smile on his face: "Of course you don't have to explain it to me, it's just that our mother is talking about coming to Shanghai to see my sister-in-law."
Wang Gang nodded and said, "You can ask mom to come. Anyway, we have a place to live now."
Chen Xule said: "Brother, if you move to a bigger house in the future, is the house you live in now vacant?"
Wang Gang knew what Chen Xu was holding back as soon as he heard it.
"Do you want to live here?" Wang Gang asked.
Chen Xu's face heated up and he said, "It's not good for the house to be empty for a long time. I can come over and show you the house."
Wang Gang shook his head and refused: "I plan to work in self-media. This house is used as a studio and I can't let you live in it."
Chen Xu's smile froze and he seemed a little unhappy.
"Brother, we are brothers." Chen Xu begged, "You won't see your brother living on the street!"
Wang Gang asked curiously: "Where is the house you used to live in?"
"The landlord wants to raise the rent again. I contribute all my salary to the landlord every month," Chen Xu complained.
Zhong Xiaoqin said: "Didn't Gu Jia just give you a salary increase?"
Chen Xu explained: "The little increase Sister Gu Jia gave me is not worth the increase in prices in Shanghai, and it will be all spent before the end of the month."
The more Wang Gang listened, the darker his face became.
"Chen Xu, you have been in Shanghai for a few years, do you just want to hang out like this? What are your plans for the future?"
Chen Xu said nonchalantly: "Just take it one day at a time!"
Wang Gang snorted coldly: "In that case, just go back to your hometown. At least you don't have to rent a house to live in your hometown. You still have a mother to rely on. Getting married and starting a family won't be a problem."
"Brother, you want to drive me away and won't let me live in your house?" Chen Xu said in disbelief.
Zhong Xiaoqin said: "Chen Xu, don't get me wrong, your brother really wants to use this house as a studio. He just decorated the small room two days ago. If you don't believe me, go and see it."
"You don't have to explain to him. You can use my house however you want. Why do you have to lend it to him?" Wang Gang stopped Zhong Xiaoqin from explaining.
Chen Xu was unconvinced and said: "When I came to Shanghai, my mother asked you to take care of me."
"Have I not taken enough care of you?" Wang Gang said angrily: "I helped you find the place where you live now, and your current job was introduced by your sister-in-law. You work as a moonlight earner every month without me subsidizing you.
You would have starved to death on the streets."
Zhong Xiaoqin saw that the two brothers were getting more and more arrogant, so she quickly came out to smooth things over.
"Chen Yu, please stop saying a few words. Brothers should help each other."
Chen Xu's face looked much better and he said to Zhong Xiaoqin: "My sister-in-law still feels sorry for me. It's not like some people who don't even recognize their brothers when they have two bad guys."
Wang Gang said speechlessly: "Chen Xu, you are in your twenties, when will you grow up and be self-reliant? I am your eldest brother, not your father, and I have no obligation to support you for the rest of your life!"
Chen Xu said excitedly: "Chen Yu, don't look down on your poor relatives because you have two filthy rich people."
Zhong Xiaoqin stopped the excited Chen Xu and said, "Chen Xu, please stop saying a few words. Your elder brother didn't mean that."
Wang Gang pulled Zhong Xiaoqin over and said, "Don't secretly give him money in the future."
Chen Xu couldn't bear it anymore and rushed out of the door.
Zhong Xiaoqin wanted to catch up and explain, but Wang Gang stopped her.
"You are all brothers, why bother?"
Wang Gang shook his head and said: "It is precisely because we are brothers that I want to train him to support himself.
Look at him, he has been in Magic City for several years and has not made any progress at all. He is either asking my mother for money or coming to my place to fight in the autumn wind. When will he be able to grow up?"
"Then there's no need to speak so harshly." Zhong Xiaoqin complained.
"It's okay." Wang Gang said with a smile: "I understand my brother. Chen Xu has been shameless and shameless since he was a child. When the real situation is exhausted, he will naturally come over obediently."
Zhong Xiaoqin asked in confusion: "What exactly do you want to do?"
Wang Gang sighed and said: "Chen Xu is actually a good boy. He was protected very well by my mother and me since he was a child. He has not been severely beaten by society when he grew up. As a result, he always relies on me and my mother and lives like a blood-sucking insect."
.”
"If you want to train him, there are many ways. Why make it so awkward?" Zhong Xiaoqin asked.
Wang Gang snorted coldly: "When I called my mother before, she heard that you were pregnant, so she asked Chen Xu to send you five thousand yuan. He didn't say a word about the money just now and bought two bottles.
vinegar."
Zhong Xiaoqin sighed, she didn't expect that her brother-in-law could even be greedy for this kind of money.
"Five thousand yuan is nothing, but I can't tolerate this behavior." Wang Gang said firmly:
"Tell Gu Jia later and find a reason to fire Chen Xu."
"Isn't this bad!" Zhong Xiaoqin said cautiously: "We are all brothers."
Wang Gang said: "I want to bring Chen Xu to my side and train him personally. I can't let him continue to be ignorant. It's too comfortable to stay with Gu Jia all the time and he won't get any training.
I don’t want my brother to be a driver for the rest of his life!”
Zhong Xiaoqin frowned and said, "Then what excuse can you use to fire Chen Xu? I'm afraid Gu Jia won't be able to be cruel."
Wang Gang thought for a while and said, "You and Gu Jia are best friends. There are some things that are hard to say, so I'll do it!"

"Your top priority now is to have a good rest and take care of your baby. Don't think about any troubles." Wang Gang asked Zhong Xiaoqin to sit on the sofa and said:
"I have my own opinions on matters between us brothers."
Before Wang Gang finished speaking, the phone rang. It turned out that the caller was Chen's mother. It must have been Chen Xu who made a small report when he went out. Chen's mother was here to investigate.
Zhong Xiaoqin looked at the caller ID and asked, "Can you answer this call?"
After Wang Gang pondered for a moment, he still picked up the phone. As soon as the call came through, the other party started roaring.
"Chen Yu, what's the matter with you? Why did you drive your brother away? Isn't it just an old house? What's wrong with living with your brother? Don't forget, I also paid for the down payment of the house."
Wang Gang had known for a long time that Mother Chen would protect her youngest son. She had been doing this since she was a child, and he was used to it.
"Chen Xu put all the five thousand yuan you gave Xiaoqin into his own pocket. Did he say anything about this?" Wang Gang asked.
There was silence on the phone for two seconds, and Wang Gang continued: "Chen Xu has been spoiled by you since he was a child. He is greedy for his family's money. If this continues, what future will he have."
Mother Chen said stubbornly: "It's just five thousand yuan! I'll give it to Xiaoqin again. Why do you do that to your brother? He is your only biological brother."
A hundred years from now, I will still count on you two brothers to support each other."
Wang Gang said: "If Chen Xu remains stubborn like this, I don't mind having this brother."
Mother Chen said angrily: "How dare you, I think you have lost your head from studying!"
Wang Gang said: "Mom, since you asked Chen Xu to come to the Demon City to seek refuge with me, I have the obligation to teach him well. As for the method, you don't have to worry about it.
If you don’t want me to teach him well, just let him go back to his hometown."
Mother Chen hesitated. It wasn't that she didn't know what kind of virtue her younger son was, but her elder son's attitude annoyed her.
"Chen Yu, what do you want to do?" Chen's mother asked.
"Give me a year, and I will take care of Chen Xu. If he can't be a good person, I will let him return to his hometown to provide for you in old age."
Chen's mother thought about it for a long time on the phone and tried to persuade her eldest son a few words, but Wang Gang's attitude was very firm. In a word, don't worry about Chen Xu's affairs this year. After a year, he has not grown up yet. Wang Gang personally
Send him back to his hometown instead of wasting time in the magical city.
In the end, Mother Chen couldn't resist her eldest son, and she wanted to see what kind of success the younger son could do in the end, so she agreed to Wang Gang.
"You should exercise as long as you exercise, Chen Xu will always be your biological brother." Chen's mother repeatedly warned.
"Let's do this! When the National Day holiday comes, you can come to Shanghai and see your baby bump in person."
Chen's mother hesitated for a moment, then agreed to Wang Gang's visit on National Day to see her pregnant daughter-in-law.
