My uncle Tao Cheng drove my aunt Su Zixi to the entrance of Surabaya Lane on time.
Taocheng's car is an old Volkswagen Jetta, which is inferior to many taxis on the street.
Qin Changsheng felt bad when he saw this dilapidated car owned by his aunt. If it hadn't been for his dragging down the car three years ago, maybe his aunt and his family would have been able to get a new car.
"Changsheng, this way!"
Su Zixi rolled down the window and waved to Qin Changsheng.
"coming."
Qin Changsheng smiled, quickly approached, opened the door and got into the car.
"What are you carrying? Is it a gift for your grandma?"
Su Zixi looked at what Qin Changsheng was holding and asked with a smile.
"Yes, aunt, this is a birthday gift prepared for my grandma."
Su Zixi smiled and said: "You are really thoughtful. I have prepared a red envelope here. You can take it and give it to your grandma in your name later."
As she said that, she took out a slightly thick red envelope from her bag. Qin Changsheng glanced at it and saw that there should be about a thousand yuan in it.
"Auntie, no need. I brought two birthday gifts, which are enough."
He waved his hand hurriedly and pushed back the red envelope handed over by Su Zixi.
Tao Chengdao: "Chang Sheng, take the red envelope. It's not like you don't know that your uncle's family is very snobbish. They never treated you very well before. This time you are in jail, their attitude towards you is even worse."
It’s not as good as before, if your birthday gift is too light, you might be gossiped about.”
"Yes, Changsheng, you give the red envelope to your grandma, so that they don't look too bad for the sake of money and face."
Su Zixi also nodded and handed over the red envelope again.
"Uncle, aunt, don't worry, the birthday gifts I prepared are not light, they are all good things."
Qin Changsheng naturally understood Su Zixi's good intentions, but how could he use his aunt's and their money to give to his grandmother as his own heart?
Besides, the two bottles of old wine and the cloisonné bowl he brought were both valuable items. Giving them as birthday gifts to grandma was enough to express his feelings, and there was no need to add red envelopes to express his gratitude.
"Really, that's okay. If you bring similar gifts, that's fine."
Su Zixi looked at the packaging box in Qin Changsheng's hand with suspicion.
She knew that Qin Changsheng had always been sensible and sensible, so she took the red envelope back without any further force.
"Auntie, in the past two days, the people from the Overlord Chamber of Commerce haven't caused any trouble to you and my uncle, have they?"
Qin Changsheng glanced at Tao Cheng and saw that there were some bruises and scars on his face, so he couldn't help but ask.
"No, after those people left the night before yesterday, they didn't cause us any trouble again."
Su Zixi smiled, feeling much more relaxed.
The conflict with the Overlord Chamber of Commerce people was still stable. This result was the best thing for ordinary people like them.
"Yeah." Qin Changsheng nodded and asked, "Xiaoying will take her boyfriend to see my grandma today?"
Su Zixi said: "Originally I didn't want her to bring her boyfriend over, but your cousin Xiaoyan suggested that she bring her boyfriend over so that we can meet together. In fact, she didn't want to meet Xiaoying's boyfriend.
, she obviously wants to take the opportunity to show off her boyfriend to our family."
"Oh? Su Yan also has a boyfriend?"
Qin Changsheng was stunned for a moment, then asked casually.
Su Yan is the daughter of Qin Changsheng's uncle. She is the same age as Qin Changsheng and is three months older than Qin Changsheng.
"Yes, I talked with someone. He seems to be named Qin Lei. He is a top graduate from a prestigious university. Now it is said that he is a department manager in a large company with an annual salary of 400,000. He is a very outstanding young man. I heard that I will give it to you at noon today.
The meal for grandma’s birthday was ordered by this Qin Lei, and it was in a very high-end restaurant.”
Su Zixi said.
Qin Changsheng nodded and asked in confusion: "Auntie, you just said that Su Yan asked Xiaoying to bring her boyfriend here to take the opportunity to show off her boyfriend. What do you mean?"
Su Zixi explained: "This is how it is. A few days ago, Su Yan proposed that those of you juniors who have a partner call them over to congratulate your grandma on her birthday. There are only four juniors in our Su family.
In order of size, they are Su Yan, you, Tao Ying, and Su Zhe."
"Among the four of you, neither you nor Su Zhe are in a relationship, only Su Yan and Tao Ying are in a relationship."
"Su Yan's hidden meaning is that she called her boyfriend Qin Lei over, and Xiaoying also called her boyfriend over, so that Qin Lei and Xiaoying's boyfriend could compare, and show their emotions in front of everyone.
Qin Lei is better than Xiaoying’s boyfriend."
"oh!"
Qin Changsheng suddenly understood, nodded, and asked with a smile: "Have you and my uncle met Xiaoying's boyfriend? What does he do?"
"Don't mention it." Tao Cheng, who was driving, snorted, obviously not liking Tao Ying's boyfriend.
Su Zixi said helplessly: "Tao Ying's boyfriend is a college classmate of Tao Ying's. His name is Chen Yangyu. The child is quite well-behaved and handsome, but..."
"What is it?" Qin Changsheng asked.
Su Zixi said: "I'm just a little weak, and I haven't found a job yet."
"What does it mean to be weak? That means you are a sissy!"
Tao Cheng scolded angrily: "This girl Xiaoying has such bad taste. I don't know why she fell in love with him, but she actually fell in love with such a sissy. I told her not to bring Chen Yangyu over.
It’s really shameful, but she refuses to listen. I want to take Chen Yangyu over and compete head-on with Su Yan’s boyfriend.”
"Just wait and see, Su Yan's boyfriend Qin Lei is better than Chen Yangyu in every aspect. I'll see where his Tao Ying's face goes. It's really embarrassing."
"..."
Qin Changsheng didn't expect Tao Cheng to have such strong opinions on Tao Ying's boyfriend.
It is said that the more a father-in-law looks at his son-in-law, the more he looks like a thief. This is true.
After all, anyone who watches his daughter who has worked so hard to raise a boyfriend find an unsatisfactory boyfriend will feel very uncomfortable.
Qin Changsheng didn't ask any more questions. As he looked closer and closer to his uncle's house, he couldn't help but think of scenes from the past.
Qin Changsheng's grandmother was named Fu Shuaihong. His grandfather died early, and it was Fu Shuaihong who raised the three Su Zinan brothers and sisters alone.
Su Zinan is Fu Shuaihong's eldest daughter. Qin Changsheng's uncle Su Jianhui is one year younger than Su Zinan, and his aunt Su Zixi is two years younger than Su Jianhui.
When Su Zinan was expelled from Yenching University and returned to Jiangzhou with the infant Qin Changsheng in her arms, Fu Shuaihong wouldn't even let Su Zinan enter the house because she thought she would embarrass the family.
Uncle Su Jianhui's family also disliked Su Zinan and Qin Changsheng, fearing that Su Zinan would become a burden to the Su family.
After that, Su Zinan took Qin Changsheng alone to take root in Jiangzhou, and never asked Fu Shuaihong and Su Jianhui for any help.
When Qin Changsheng grew older and Su Zinan's condition improved, Fu Shuaihong finally reluctantly accepted them, mother and son, and allowed them to come to pay New Year's greetings and have a meal during the holidays.
But the relationship between mother and son, uncle Su Jianhui, and grandmother Fu Shuaihong, is just that.
Even when Su Zinan was alive, we only saw him only a few times a year.
But no matter what, he has never seen his father since he was a child, and he only has the Su family in this world, so he still has to go there for a day like his grandma's birthday.
Even if those people still don't want to see him, he can just be himself and show the courtesy that a junior should have.
