Chapter 596
Her voice was very low, but Su Xinghui's hearing was extraordinary. He heard Zhang Ping's words clearly and found it funny in his heart.
Zhang Ping was a typical petty urbanite—selfish, greedy, realistic, and snobbish, yet stupid, unable to grasp the measure of things, and lacking in conversational skill. She had spoken several times today, and all of them were in the typical Zhang style that Su Xinghui was familiar with.
When Su Xinghui was down on his luck in his previous life, he had endured no shortage of her mockery. That period was truly like a nightmare.
Sun Sinian said, "Xuefei, this is your Big Brother Su. Say hello."
Sun Xuefei laughed, "Hello, Big Brother Su."
Su Xinghui could only nod and say, "Hello."
Sun Xuefei was his sister-in-law from his previous life. She had a good job, and the husband she later married became a deputy county magistrate. She was always arrogant in front of Su Xinghui and had often ridiculed him.
Sun Sinian pointed to Sun Xuelan again: "My youngest daughter, Sun Xuelan, is currently a sophomore at Shangjun High School. Speaking of which, you are her senior. You are a top student from Jiangcheng University. When you have time, could you tutor her studies?"
Su Xinghui nodded perfunctorily, "Tutoring is no problem, it's just that I don't come back often."
Sun Sinian smiled broadly, "That's fine, just tutoring her when you come back is enough. You are so good at studying, and she is not bad either. A good drum doesn't need heavy beating."
Su Xinghui nodded noncommittally.
Sun Sinian pointed to Sun Zhuoxuan again: "This is my son Sun Zhuoxuan, currently in his third year of junior high at Chengguan Middle School. He is very naughty. In the future, Township Head Su, please help discipline him when you have time."
Su Xinghui shook his head and laughed, "I wouldn't dare, I wouldn't dare."
Sun Sinian said, "Zhuoxuan, call him Big Brother Su."
Sun Zhuoxuan called out somewhat reluctantly.
After introducing the family, Sun Sinian opened a bottle of Moutai, poured a glass for Su Xinghui, and poured one for himself.
Zhang Ping said, "Township Head Su, our Old Sun bought this specifically for you. It cost almost a month's salary."
Sun Sinian scolded, "Say less."
Zhang Ping turned her head away sullenly and muttered, "Can't I even get some credit for spending the money?"
Su Xinghui said, "Director Sun, you are being too polite. I'm embarrassed!"
Sun Sinian said, "What's this? You and I are like old friends at first sight. I feel close to you whenever I see you, and I always feel like I've seen you somewhere before. Today we must have a few good drinks. It would be best to finish these two bottles."
Sun Sinian raised his glass to Su Xinghui and said, "Township Head Su, come, I toast you!"
Su Xinghui raised his glass and said, "Thank you, Director Sun."
Sun Sinian said, "Why be so polite?"
Su Xinghui drank the glass of wine. Moutai was indeed different; once drunk, it left a lingering fragrance on the teeth and cheeks. If it were his previous life, Su Xinghui would never have been able to drink Moutai at the Sun residence; it would have been more likely for him to buy Moutai for Sun Sinian to drink. He didn't expect that in this life, he would actually drink Moutai bought by Sun Sinian, which filled his heart with infinite emotion.
Sun Sinian took a pair of serving chopsticks and served food to Su Xinghui: "Come, Township Head Su, taste my wife's cooking. It's all home-cooked food, nothing fancy, don't mind it."
Su Xinghui laughed, "It's so sumptuous, Director Sun is too polite."
The dining table today was indeed very sumptuous, with soft-shelled turtle, crab, mandarin fish, and all kinds of chicken, duck, fish, and meat. It was estimated that the Sun family didn't even have such a sumptuous meal during the New Year.
Zhang Ping spoke up again: "Early this morning, our Old Sun told me to go buy groceries, and he kept telling me to buy good ones. I spent over a hundred yuan."
Sun Sinian was angry: "Can't even eating block your mouth? Stop talking."
Zhang Ping lowered her head sullenly again.
Sun Sinian toasted Su Xinghui again and then picked up the largest crab, which was female, and placed it in front of Su Xinghui.
Sun Sinian said to Sun Xuefei, "Xuefei, toast your Big Brother Su."
Zhang Ping took a bottle of beverage and handed it to Sun Xuefei, but Sun Xuefei picked up the wine bottle and poured herself a glass, saying, "I'll drink this. I haven't had Moutai before."
Sun Sinian frowned and said, "A young girl, still so young, why drink alcohol? Just drink the beverage."
Sun Xuefei said, "Why can't a girl drink? How am I young? I'm already working. Big Brother Su? Am I young?"
Saying this, Sun Xuefei looked at Su Xinghui and even puffed out her chest.
Su Xinghui couldn't help but glance at that towering spot and then shook his head, "Not young, not young."
Sun Xuefei looked triumphantly at her father and said, "Dad, Big Brother Su said I'm not young, so I can drink."
