Chapter 1784: You have too little money
On such a hot day, after Minmin took her parents for a walk around the village, she was invited to the Song family's house again.
The family of three was quite embarrassed.
"Don't bother, don't bother. spiritual energy said that everything in your house has been signed to a big boss, so don't spend money!"
They were also embarrassed: "When we came, we wanted to bring some milk and snacks to visit the elders, but spiritual energy insisted that they don't eat..."
And so, they came empty-handed.
On the way, they thought they wouldn't disturb anyone, just play and walk around here, and go back when the sun came out.
Who knew that the silly boy took a fancy to the wages here, and now he's working hard on the mountain and refuses to leave, so the family of three finds it hard to leave instead.
Now that the family of three is visiting empty-handed, how awkward.
If Qiaoqiao were here, he could give a red envelope like coaxing a child. But even Qiaoqiao isn't here, so they really have no choice.
Minmin also felt embarrassed. Here, there is not only Zhu spiritual energy's third uncle's family, but also his grandparents!
Until Wu Lan's laughter rang out.
Damei is stingy, but she never had bad intentions towards her. Even when she was setting up a stall in the city, she tried every way to find a way for Qiaoqiao.
Just for this, Until Wu Lan has to treat her in-laws decently.
Well, that child spiritual energy can't be counted in, just like Grandpa Qi said, crouching tiger and hidden dragon, you really can't use common sense.
Song Youde and Wang Lifen were also smiling from ear to ear.
Their grandson has a partner, the girl is delicate and upright, the old couple can finally rest their hearts!
Otherwise, with Damei's stinginess, they had dreamed about whether one day, to save money, this family of three would find a single mother with an adult child!
It's really not alarmist!
Just look at spiritual energy and you'll know—which decent young man accompanies his father-in-law and mother-in-law on a trip, and in order to earn money, throws them aside and does odd jobs locally!
Speaking of which, they are the ones who can't hold their heads up.
Now Minmin is visiting empty-handed?
Can this be a problem? Not at all!
Grandma even quietly pulled Song Tan aside:
"Tantan, this is her first time home, you have those red envelope covers, right? I'll pack a red envelope for the girl, don't mind it!"
Song Tan wouldn't do that.
She had the red envelope covers, but while handing them over, she spread her other palm:
"Minmin has one, Lu Chuan must have one too."
This child!
Grandma glared at her: "You two look so handsome, this is a marriage from a previous life, it's destined! Minmin is different! spiritual energy and your aunt are like that and they are still willing, so if I, the grandmother, don't make an effort, I won't be able to sleep peacefully at night!"
But saying that, the old lady rode her tricycle back under the hot sun, and in the end, she secretly packed two more red envelopes and came over:
"This one is for Little Lu, don't you steal it."
Song Tan giggled and went to open the red envelope: "Then I have to see if they are the same..."
The two were whispering there, and Until Wu Lan shouted at her from the kitchen: "Tantan, go call your cousin down to eat watermelon, he won't answer the phone."
She paused and emphasized: "I won't deduct a single cent from his wages."
Song Tan was also helpless: "My eldest cousin has that stubborn temper. If he could be easily called down by me, why would he have come to the fields every weekend to work hard before? There was no money then."
She looked at the time again: "The outdoor ones finish work at 9:30, so there's only half an hour left, Mom, you go ahead and entertain them."
Grandpa was listening in the living room and also felt his old face was dull.
The old saying goes, 【Hold your head high when marrying off a daughter, bow your head when taking in a daughter-in-law】.
When people marry off a daughter, they raise a girl like a pearl or treasure until she's so big, and then she merges into another family, so the posture must be higher, with confidence, after all, they are the side being sought for marriage.
Their family has male descendants, so they must have a lower posture, be more tolerant and accommodating, only then does it show respect and sincerity!
So since ancient times, when the woman's side is too eager, people look down on them, because at the root, they don't respect themselves.
Like Song Sancheng, when he was dating, he went to his future father-in-law's house to do this and that, and Song Youde and his wife not only couldn't stop him, but had to urge him and take the initiative to help.
And Zhu spiritual energy?!
Oh my!
The old-fashioned grandparents really feel chest tightness just thinking about it, and want to call Damei to scold her. But now that they haven't seen their eldest grandson come down for a long time, Grandma can only stuff the red envelope over first:
"Girl, this is your first time here, take it..."
According to custom, they should pull back and forth for a hundred or eighty rounds.
But Minmin was stunned, then accepted it without hesitation, smiling sweetly:
"Thank you, Grandma and Grandpa! spiritual energy is steady and diligent. The lights in my house and the table legs were all repaired by him. My parents like him very much!"
Once this was said, the whole hall was happy!
Until Wu Lan then sent over a large basin of watermelon at the right time: "Come, come, it's hot, eat more watermelon!"
At the homestay, Lu Jing looked at today's booking records and sent a message to Lu Chuan:
"Tantan called me over to eat watermelon, it's Sunday today."
She added: "I heard that his eldest cousin's partner and family are here, you go and accompany the guests too."
Lu Chuan was video calling with Qiaoqiao:
"In the car?"
"Going to the farm in the suburban county?"
"Okay, then Qiaoqiao, look more, take more videos, let us also see how other people's farms are planned..."
"Sister didn't answer the phone? Eldest cousin's girlfriend brought her father and mother, sister might be helping to cut watermelon, phone is put aside..."
"Pick daylilies and send them back? Okay! Your Aunt Lu Jing loves to eat them. If they are delicious, see if we can plant them next year."
"No more land? Yes, every inch of land at home is well planned... but some cannot be rotated, you can see how they arrange it, and when you come back, we will communicate more with Sister Yanran and the others."
"Cotton? Still want to experience picking cotton yourself? Be careful when picking cotton, it will prick your hands... want to make a quilt! Okay, make it for Grandma and Grandpa, they are old and used to cotton quilts..."
He chattered a lot, and if He Kuang and Qin Yun saw this gentle and kind appearance, they would rush up and squeal again.
The video hung up, the tablet in front was already dark, and his smiling appearance was reflected on the dark and bright screen, even Lu Chuan himself was slightly stunned.
Before in the Imperial Capital, the housekeeper would call his family and quietly say that he looked like he was smiling, but in reality, he seemed very harsh...
If it weren't for that, he wouldn't only have two or three good friends now.
Living in the countryside for a long time, away from the social circle of big cities, people seem to have more vitality.
He clicked on Lu Jing's voice message, changed his clothes and went downstairs, seeing his mother frowning at the screen in front of her, looking very serious—
Fine.
Watching TV dramas again.
Mary Sue romance dramas, idol dramas, and the popular short dramas now, no matter what the plot is, his mother is in this state when watching dramas, looking very serious and unhappy, but in reality, she doesn't know how many times she has been howling inside.
He knocked on the counter: "Ms. Lu."
"Hmm?" Lu Jing responded, her eyes still not moving away from the screen: "What?"
Lu Chuan looked twice—the domineering president on the screen was scratching himself in the golden room as if he were allergic, panting heavily all over.
No need to ask, he was drugged.
He turned his head, didn't urge her, just asked again: "It's hot now, and there are fewer people coming to the village, do you want to go traveling?"
Huh?
Lu Jing came back to her senses: "Traveling?"
Traveling is fine, but...
Sigh!
She said painfully: "I wanted to invite two sisters to go traveling, but look at me now, I've gained ten or twenty jin, it'll look good only after I lose weight and go out to take pictures."
Lu Chuan couldn't help but laugh: "Mom, if you stay by Tantan's side, you won't be able to lose weight even after 10 years, go out and suffer a bit."
Actually, although Lu Jing is fatter than before, if Song Tan were to say it, it can only be called plump.
At her age, her mature temperament is undoubtedly covered, so having a little more meat on her body actually makes her look gentle and wealthy, and her affinity is simply full.
Plus, being nourished by good mountains and water, her lips are red and teeth are white, and her hair is thick, looking very much like a Hong Kong beauty of the last century.
The old boyfriend she talked about before, whoever he is, standing next to her now would definitely look like a driver, not to mention how much temperament she has.
However, because of that troublesome thing last time, she no longer mentions talking about boyfriends, and looking through her chat history with Song Tan, there are more various links from a certain book—
【Found a peerless model guy at the bar...】
In short, those who used to dance lively and happily haven't been out for travel in over half a year. Lu Chuan discussed it with Song Tan, and it was because he was afraid she was feeling stifled that he made this suggestion.
And Lu Jing didn't resist, just pondered again:
"Let's wait until this busy period is over, after it's over, I'll ask Tantan's mom if she wants to go out, and we'll be companions."
"By the way, bring me a small watermelon later, I want to eat it with a spoon, just right for my drama."
Lu Chuan nodded, just about to go out, when he suddenly heard Lu Jing say:
"Is your work okay lately? Is making money okay?"
Lu Chuan was stunned: "Do you need money?"
Lu Jing just shook her head: "I just think you're strangely poor... look, now the male leads in short dramas all have to have billions to be worthy."
Big groups and big enterprises in reality also have assets of tens or hundreds of billions.
And her son is just an ordinary person, with only 9-digit savings in his hand, which is really not worth mentioning.
Lu Chuan didn't feel inferior, just said: "Inflation in reality is severe, and it's the same in books. When I was in middle school, Mom, in the novels you read, the domineering president's mother would throw a check to the heroine, only willing to sign 5 million."
"It's different now."
He looked at the short dramas Lu Jing was watching—"The one you watched last week, the heroine asked the male lead for a breakup fee, it was 1 billion in cash, right?"
At that time, Lu Chuan was confirming booking information with his mother, and when he heard this line, he was stunned.
1 billion in cash, what kind of big enterprise can take so much money for a rich second generation to squander as a breakup fee?
This world has expanded into a state that he, who writes fantasy, cannot understand.
Lu Jing nodded, but she was not promising, and didn't dare to think about the life of such a tycoon, so she could only give up:
"Forget it, that's too high-end, it's good for you to be steady now—remember to bring me the watermelon."
The Song family was busy chattering, and the last truck of corn stalks was sent to the Zhai Dafeng Feed Factory. Besides Chen Xi and Chen Chi following, there was also a bag of frozen beef.
It was just hot, and even if ice cubes were put in, it couldn't stop the blood from slowly melting in, so after getting off the truck, Chen Chi hugged the bag and rushed in:
"Need to stew beef, can't put it anymore, it won't taste good if put anymore."
Zhai Dafeng Boss came out and saw—
Whoa!
This 1.9-meter tall guy, is this also a talent that can be recruited in the village?
Looking at his nephew who was just over 1.7 meters, the boss felt depressed.
"Are you the ones raising cattle in Yunqiao Village?"
That Boss Song said that later he would invite those responsible for raising cattle to come over and communicate, but he didn't say they were two such spirited young men!
Zhai Dafeng Boss hugged the beef, looked at this 1.9-meter young man looking around in the feed factory, although he felt something was wrong, but looking at the sturdy and upright Chen Xi, he was also puzzled—
How come, how come now those raising cattle in the countryside have requirements for temperament?
Chen Xi stepped forward and shook hands with the boss: "Hello, I am here from Yunqiao Village to learn and communicate, my name is Chen Xi. This is my younger brother, Chen Chi."
Zhai Dafeng Boss:...
He is so formal! He thought blankly: It seems like a condolence visit.
But then, the condolence atmosphere was broken by Chen Chi: "Boss, your beef needs to be processed quickly, this is super delicious! Stewed with potatoes is the best!"
"Chen Chi." Chen Xi said to him: "Go help unload the materials, after the truck goes back, the river pond and pasture grass also need to be sent here."
They have to wait for these to be packed and then go back with the truck. They are not afraid of people taking advantage, they are afraid of people swapping things inside.
The feed factory boss looks sincere, but they have to keep an eye on what they need to keep an eye on.
"Oh." Chen Chi grew so tall, but actually he listens to everyone, and at this moment he went to work obediently.
He is tall, strong, and his body is being conditioned with Chinese medicine and nutrition, and now he looks quite sturdy.
He reaches out and hugs a large bundle of heavy corn stalks without any effort.
Zhai Dafeng Boss looked at his nephew again.
His nephew tucked three or five stalks in his arm, the corn stalks were longer than him, and he was hugging them to his chest.
Tsk.
Looking at the beef in his arms again, he was a bit embarrassed: "I just said that, your beef is expensive, if you give it to me, isn't it..."
"It's okay." Chen Xi's face was not very gentle, but his tone was exceptionally polite:
"We are all in the same industry, Boss specially asked me to come and learn from you, communicate more, and share information if there is any—by the way, if you can't find anyone to castrate cattle later, you can call me."
Zhai Dafeng Boss was happy: "Oh my, you have this skill too? Then can you deliver calves? I heard from your boss that you raise calves yourselves, I also breed here every year, but the calves of the breeding cattle are big, and I'm always worried when they are born, if you have experience in this area, let's talk more later..."
While talking, he called his family to take the beef and stew it—
If this beef was sold for 20 a jin, he would definitely be very jealous.
But selling for 200, then only one thought remained in his mind—
【Must taste what it tastes like】
?? I have really seen the 1 billion cash breakup fee, but it was not a short drama, it was a novel from two years ago... because there was too much money (so much cash flow!!!) I was shocked and couldn't continue reading.
? Sigh! The background of poverty is exposed! I dare not imagine! ===== CHAPTER 1785 =====
