Although he is rich, he is actually an iron rooster
Little Yu smacked his lips and said: "And his wife."
He looked very tired when he said it. I knew that he was unhappy in his heart. He had always admired Qiao Chenfei and had long since regarded him as his brother-in-law.
Seeing me looking at him suspiciously, Little Yu shrugged and explained, "They speak English very quickly, I don't understand." Then he said: "But they are quarrelling fiercely, like enemies, not like husband and wife at all!"
I frowned slightly as my mind unconsciously started to picture the scene of the two of them arguing. I couldn't imagine what Qiao Chenfei looked like when they were arguing.
Because he was always gentle, and we had quarreled before when we were in love, but he would never be angry with me. He should have done the same for his wife, Yvonne.
Suddenly, I remembered the condescending way Yvonne had spoken to him that day, and my frown deepened.
Forget it, that's his family matter, I don't care.
Sighing slightly, I said to Little Yu, "You don't need to worry about other people's matters." He switched the topic, "Oh yeah, when you see Second Aunt and Little Uncle later, don't tell them about our company getting the investment and how you want to go abroad. Don't say a word."
"Yes, I won't. Those snobbish people! " Little Yu leaned back in his chair, opened his coffee cup and drank from it, his tone and expression extremely disdainful.
I don't blame him. Ever since father passed away, those relatives avoided Little Yu and me as if we were plague, so I tactfully decided not to look for them. However, when Little Yu was just found out about his leukemia, I couldn't do anything about it. I used to ask them for money, but they didn't just close the door and pretend they didn't know each other, they said they were poorer than me.
When they found out that I had married into the Lou Family and become a wealthy young mistress, all of their expressions changed and they ran over to the Lou Family to find me to marry them again.
If it weren't for the fact that they were my father's brothers and sisters, I would have knocked them out with a beater.
Over the last three years, they've asked me for all sorts of reasons to borrow money, saying it's a loan, but they haven't paid it back once. I don't want to argue with them, so I'll just treat it as sending out beggars.
As he said that, the car had already arrived at the old house. I looked up and saw them at the door, presumably knowing that I came every year at this time, and that they were waiting for me.
After parking the car, before Little Yu and I could get off, the trunk of the car was opened by Little Uncle.
Seeing that he couldn't wait to take out the things I bought for them, I sneered in my heart.
"Hey Xiao Ying, it's been so long since we last met, you look beautiful again." Second Aunt's flattering laughter reached me as soon as I got out of the car. Following that, she quickly walked in front of me.
Looking at this face which was laughing so hard that it looked like a rag was wrung dry, I sneered in my heart. Back in the day, she was the coldest and most smelly of all to me.
I smiled perfunctorily and didn't answer. But that didn't stop her from trying to please me.
She affectionately pulled my hand, "You must be tired from driving, go in and rest. Your uncle is cooking for you guys right now, there's your favorite steamed eel, fish eggplant, and the fried clam that Little Yu likes." After saying that, he led me to the door.
Without a word, I pulled my hand away and wiped it twice on my shirt.
She didn't see that, and turned her head towards Little Yu, who was beside me, and giggled: "Little Yu, your uncle, I, Lou Lou and I have missed you. I had wanted to see you for a long time, but I was too busy, and couldn't find time, so don't blame us."
Although Little Yu has a gentle personality, when it comes to matters that he cannot bear to see, his mouth is even more merciless than mine. Now that he heard his second aunt being so hypocritical, he also gave a fake smile and said, "After being busy for three years, that second aunt and uncle must have gotten rich. Can I borrow my sister's money to repay them?"
Her daughter, Lou Lou, who was by her side saw this and quickly cut in, saying: "Cousin cousin, I've found a new job, it's in your Sea City."
When I heard this, I immediately pretended not to hear it.
Seeing that I didn't reply, Lou Lou curled his lips and was about to continue speaking, when he saw his Little Uncle and Xiao Shen carrying the things I bought in front of me.
"Xiao Ying, what are these things?" Xiao Shen carried the box and looked around, then asked me.
Without looking at it, I said, "Supplies."
Hearing that it was a supplement, and his little uncle's eyes lit up at the same time. "Then it must be worth a lot of money, right?" They asked at the same time.
"Not bad, I bought it from the supermarket." I tell the truth. I never bother to buy things for them, and I don't buy them myself, but let the secretary do it for me.
The moment I said those words, their bright eyes immediately darkened. The box that they thought was a treasure was casually placed on the table. Even though I didn't say it out loud, the look of disdain on my face was exposed.
I curled my lips in contempt, then thought of my father. Both were born from the same mother, so why was he so different from them?
My father is a man of character. He would never treat money like dirt, but he would never be as greedy as they are. Furthermore, my dad's personality is also very noble and cultured. When he was young, he was quite a character in this small town, but unfortunately, it ended up in the hands of that bad woman, Yang Mengzhu.
Thinking of this, my heart ached again. I felt tears welling up in my eyes. I quickly lowered my head and quietly wiped away the moisture that had seeped out of the corners of my eyes.
Upon hearing that I had come, those close relatives and distant relatives that were usually unreachable all began to appear one after another. Seeing them looking at me as if I was a peasant seeing a soldier, I sneered in my heart and rolled my eyes, but on the surface, I was smiling along with them. But Little Yu was different from me, he was more sincere and directly ignored them.
During the meal, they would talk back and forth about how poor their families were or how their business had failed. In any case, there was only one reason for saying this — to borrow money.
For the first time in my life, he complained to me that the world was in a bad mood and that his business was hard to do, but I deliberately played dumb and refused to pick him up.
Speaking of my uncle, he isn't even good for business, but seeing that he had a good relationship with my dad before he died, I still lent him money. He didn't say a word. The business was almost closed now, and I didn't know how he had the nerve to ask me.
Seeing that I didn't say anything and didn't seem to want to help him, he got a little anxious and secretly elbowed Second Aunt.
Second Aunt immediately understood, she raised her wine cup and smiled at me sincerely: "Xiao Ying, come, let me toast you."
I made a fake smile but didn't touch the cup. "Second Aunt, as a junior, I wouldn't dare to drink the word 'respect' when you said it."
The corner of Second Aunt's mouth twitched in embarrassment, but she quickly forced a smile and said, "Hey, look at you. You're online." We are not a rich family like the Lou Family, we don't need to pay attention to things like that, whoever respects us will be the different! "
Seeing that she was still holding the cup, as if she wouldn't stop until I drank it, and that my uncle and other relatives were also trying to persuade her, I reluctantly picked up the cup.
The moment the alcohol was drunk, she impatiently cut straight to the point: "Xiao Ying, you heard what your uncle said just now. His business is still half dead, but luckily he has a friend recently said that he's investing in a very good project and wants to take us along to do it. However, we still don't have enough money on us, so we wanted to ask you to gather some more and we'll return it to you after the new year."
Her words were not a question that I could borrow, but a definite one that I could borrow directly.
I secretly sneered and said, "Second Aunt, it's not that I don't want to borrow it, but I'm a bit short on cash these days. You know, Lou Family and I already have nothing to do with each other. Right now, the food is all our own, and there's still a bunch of people who want to raise food in the company's factory. I need more money than you do. "
When Second Aunt heard what I said, the smile on her face instantly collapsed. She had a sullen expression and was very unhappy.
"Then the young master of Lou Family didn't give you any alimony when she divorced you?" Uncle's disbelieving eyes kept scanning my face.
I shook my head.
He gave it to her. However, that money was given to him by Zhong Ruoqing and went to the bottom of the sea to be fed to the fishes.
"Then why don't you ask him?" Seeing that I didn't seem to be lying, my uncle slammed his chopsticks on the table, glared at me with a look of injustice, and said, "He's so rich, so he should at least take twenty or fifty million from him. Otherwise, your youth wouldn't have been wasted."
Ah, your appetite is really big! She really thought of Lou Shaotang as a key.
I sneered in my heart and half-jokingly said, "Don't think that he is rich. He is actually an iron rooster. He is very sinister and used some despicable method to get me out of the family."
Even though they had never interacted with Lou Shaotang before, they had heard of Lou Shaotang's great name. They had more or less heard of his ruthless and decisive style in the market, so when they heard what I said, they didn't doubt him.
However, from the expressions on their faces, it seemed that they were very dissatisfied that I didn't even manage to get a single strand of hair after being kicked out by Lou Shaotang.
There's no hope in asking me to borrow money. Everyone's appetite dwindled and they didn't talk much. Everyone was drinking and eating.
I was happy and quiet and my chopsticks moved more quickly than before.
Just as I was preparing some food for Little Yu, my little uncle's surprised voice travelled into my ears, "Ya, Young Master!" Subsequently, he stood up.
I wonder, Young Master? Who?
The only people here who can be called Young Master by Little Uncle are me and Lou Lou's husband. Lou Lou just graduated and hasn't gotten married yet. She definitely isn't me, and if I were to get divorced, it definitely wouldn't be wait.
A bad premonition instantly appeared on his forehead.
I immediately turned my head to look at the doo
