Chapter 434 Comparison
Gu Fei also got up and came over at this time, which was really strange. The old lady never went out much, so why did she go into the city today.
“Grandma, uncle, why are you free to come here today?”
The old lady then said: "This is the Xiao Fei I told you about!"
“Xiao Fei, this is your cousin!”
Gu Fei thought for a moment, but didn't understand what kind of relationship this was, so he said to the old woman, "Hello, aunt."
The old woman looked Gu Fei up and down with a smile, "Are you Xiao Fei? Your **** will praise you to the sky in front of me."
Gu Fei glanced at the old lady in surprise, and the old lady turned her head uncomfortably.
Although Gu Fei said she didn't like the old lady, she still had to give her face in front of outsiders. She smiled and said: "Auntie, please sit down quickly, Lian'er, let's serve tea."
Invited a few people to sit down in the lobby. After listening to a few people chattering for a while, Gu Fei finally understood.
It turns out that Gu Zhong was setting up a stall on the street selling barbecue in the morning.
An old woman came over and stared at him for a while, then asked in her native dialect: "Are you Qian Yingzi's eldest son?"
The old lady was called Qian Yingzi before she got married. When Gu Zhong heard his mother's name, he stared at the old woman for a while and suddenly said: "You are the second cousin!"
This old woman's surname is Zhang. She is the old lady's cousin. She was previously married to a small businessman.
Later on, this businessman's business gradually expanded. He sold tea from Ping'an City and sold it back. A few years ago, he simply moved to Ping'an City. He hasn't seen it for more than ten years.
The two were very excited to meet each other, so Gu Zhong closed the stall, hired a car, and took Zhang home to meet the old lady.
When the two old sisters met, they naturally cried for a long time, and then they inevitably talked about common things.
As we all know, what these relatives love most is comparison.
Mrs. Zhang first heard that the house the old lady and the others were living in now was borrowed from someone else, and she said: "Oh, I'm sorry for my old sister. She is so old, she finally escaped from the famine, and now she even has to borrow the house from someone else. I still have an empty old house, but it’s a bit dilapidated. If you don’t mind it, I can lend it to you.”
When the old lady heard this, she immediately felt like she was being given alms. The boss felt uncomfortable and said hurriedly: "It's not that I don't have a house to live in. My second brother has a house in the country and the city. It's just that I have to help the boss look after Bao'er. This Just live with the boss.”
“But now they are all building houses, saying they want to build something similar to this Zhuangzi.”
Zhang thought to herself, "You are a liar. How can you afford to build a house by selling some snacks on the street?" She smiled and said, "It would be better to build a house."
"It's just that the boss is doing a small business on the street, exposed to the sun and rain, and I'm afraid he can't make much money in a day. We can't wait until the Year of the Monkey to build this house."
She smiled proudly and said, "My two sons are not bad. Each of them has a shop, and they can make some money a year."
The old lady felt humiliated when she saw Zhang's smile. Zhang's son compared her own son to him. She argued: "Although the boss is doing a small business, he can make money."
He thought for a while and took out his trump card, "My second brother is living a pretty good life now. He bought several thousand acres of land, and now my third brother helps manage it."
“The second son’s family is still running a shop in the city, and the first son bought two big boats and went to sea.”
"Let me tell you, this money is enough to spend. What are you going to do at sea? Can you tell me what happened at sea?" As she said this, the old lady was really worried about her second son.
Zhang didn’t quite believe it. How many acres of land? There are shops and boats?
This is not tens of thousands of silver?
With so much money, why do you still live in a different house with your eldest son?
Bragging is not done without drafting.
