Chapter 85 Family Gathering

089, Family Gathering

After sending gifts to relatives and elders, Tang Wen stayed at home for a few days. Tang Hong and Long Jiao went back to the countryside these days, so Tang Wen had to stay alone in the empty room.

"Wen Wen, the new year has begun. I wish you a successful career and all the best this year." After 12 o'clock, the first day of the new year officially arrived. Mother Long Yun and father Tang Lin each took a red envelope and handed it to Tang Wen.

"Thank you, Dad and Mom, and I wish you all the best and good health in the new year." Tang Wen took the red envelope with a smile, and then lit the firecrackers at the door of the new home with his father.

After 12 o'clock, Panda Live was officially launched, and many celebrities reposted it on Weibo at the first time. Tang Wen became more and more curious about what would happen the next day.

On the first day of the new year, Tang Wen would go to his uncle's house with his parents to celebrate the New Year every year. Especially this year, almost all family members came back from other places. This is really a rare good day.

At 10 o'clock in the morning, after Tang Wen and his father strolled around the village and paid New Year's greetings, the family prepared to go to his uncle's house.

Tang Wen's grandmother has a total of 5 children, 3 sons and 2 daughters. The uncle used to be a driver in the cement factory. Now he is retired and resting at home, but recently he seems to be driving a bus again.

The uncle has three children. Tang Wen's eldest cousin is a doctor, the second cousin started his own business, and the youngest cousin is now a civil servant in Longmen.

The second uncle is a top student. After graduation, he went to Heng Y to work as an engineer. He has been settled there. Now there is a daughter who is 8 years older than Tang Wen. Before, the family used connections to find her a job with a monthly salary of tens of thousands. After a few years, the cousin quit and is now a mobile cashier. Yes, you read it right, she is so arrogant.

The third sister is Tang Wen's aunt. She and Tang Wen are also working in the cement factory. Tang Wen's mother used to work in finance, and the aunt is a technician and is now retired at home.

The son of my aunt is Tang Wen's cousin, who is very close to him. He works as a warehouse manager in a state-owned enterprise. He just got married to someone in the company.

As for my youngest uncle, he is the pride of the whole family. He not only got admitted to the National Defense University, but also joined the army directly after graduation. He is now at the level of a deputy division commander, but he plans to retire this year. My uncle has a daughter who is 8 years younger than Tang Wen, and she will also come back this year.

My uncle's family is also very powerful. So when Tang Wen was studying, my uncle always wanted Tang Wen to join the army.

Fortunately, my uncle's house is next to the cement factory and the house is big enough, otherwise it really can't accommodate so many people.

Tang Wen deliberately acted as a driver today, driving a Rolls-Royce to take his parents to my uncle's house.

"Tsk tsk, my son's car is more comfortable, unlike your car. It's uncomfortable to sit in it." My mother commented with relish while sitting in the back seat.

"Hehe, my son is promising. I will drive it in the future. But it's better to go fishing in an off-road vehicle." My father said happily with his legs crossed.

"Look at your behavior. You only know how to take advantage of your son."

"Okay, mom, I won't drive this car or that off-road vehicle away. I'll leave it to you and dad." Tang Wen said with a smile while holding the steering wheel.

"Don't listen to your dad. You also need a car when you start your own business." Mom said unhappily.

"Don't worry, my dear mom. My company has bought several." Tang Wen said with a smile.

The three of them drove to the main road, talking and laughing. Seeing that it was jammed, they had to move forward slowly.

Under the threat of Tang Wen's Rolls-Royce RR logo and M88888 license plate, the 3 meters behind Tang Wen was a vacuum zone. Pedestrians around him also began to point at the car.

"Five 8s?"

"Tsk tsk, that's a Rolls-Royce."

"Oh, it's incredible. This car must cost hundreds of thousands."

"Haha, it's better to change the cross to a hundred."

People in small towns may not know what Rolls-Royce is, but they still know the license plate with five 8s.

After being stuck in traffic for a few minutes, Tang Wen successfully drove the car to a less congested road. After turning left and right, there were finally fewer cars on the road.

Ten minutes later, Tang Wen parked the car at the door of his uncle's house. Then he took out the prepared firecrackers from the trunk, lit them and threw them behind him.

"Pah pah pah pah."

As the firecrackers sounded, Tang Wen followed his parents to the iron gate of his uncle's house.

"Uncle, happy new year, aunt."

"Happy new year, brother."

"Happy new year, sister-in-law."

"Happy new year, sister, happy new year, brother-in-law."

After Tang Wen followed his parents into the gate of his uncle's house, he began to greet everyone he saw.

"Come on, come on, have some tea. Wenwen is one year older, come on, take the red envelope, remember to find a girlfriend this year." Uncle smiled and handed a red envelope to Tang Wen.

"Tsk tsk, Wenwen, you should learn more from your brother. Think about your brother Chen Qiuping back then. He was a love saint." Cousin Longzhong smiled and joked.

"Ahem." The cousin who was drinking water was choked by Long Zhong's words. Tang Wen could already see the claws of his future sister-in-law reaching for his cousin's waist.

"Hi, Tang Wen." Before he could react, Tang Wen was hugged by a woman. He didn't need to look to know that it was his older young woman cousin Long Junjun.

"Ahem, cousin needs to breathe." Tang Wen said helplessly.

Tang Wen was quite afraid of this evil cousin. Rather than calling her a tough girl, Tang Wen would rather call her a brainless cousin.

This story started when Tang Wen was 8 years old. He went to his uncle Heng Y's house with his family to celebrate his uncle's birthday. As a result, his cousin, who was taking him out to play, was happily chatting with her friends on the way and left Tang Wen alone on the roadside.

Fortunately, Tang Wen had a good brain and found the way back to his uncle's house by himself. When he got home, he found that his cousin was being educated by his uncle, but she didn't remember where she put Tang Wen down.

So Tang Wen was instinctively afraid of this cousin. This silly roe deer might have another attack one day.

After greeting everyone, the men went to the small living room to play cards. The women watched TV and chatted in the large living room. Tang Wen didn't like playing cards, so he prepared to go out for a walk alone.

Just after changing shoes, I met my aunt, my cousin Chen Qiuping, my sister-in-law, and my devil cousin.

"Wenwen, let's go out for a walk together." My cousin introduced "enthusiastically".

In Tang Wen's view, that was a sign of aggressiveness.

Tang Wen had no choice but to follow along. During the period, while my cousin and sister-in-law went to visit the elementary school where my cousin used to study, Tang Wen secretly handed a bank card to my cousin.

"What does Wenwen mean?" My cousin and aunt looked at Tang Wen with some doubts.

"The password is 5 8s, and there is 5 million in it. Brother, you should pay off the house loan first. It's best to buy a few houses and buy a car with the remaining money, and then do some small business." Tang Wen said truthfully.

"5 million? Where did you get the money? Is it your parents' idea?" My cousin was a little puzzled.

"Nothing, I have opened my own company now. I also gave my parents money. I know you and sister-in-law are going to get married this year, so this money will be a gift." Tang Wen said with a smile.

"No, take it back." Auntie firmly disagreed.

"No, no, no, auntie, I told you before that I will buy you a big house for retirement. If you don't want it, I will take you to Changsha to look at houses tomorrow until you are satisfied. Don't refuse me, otherwise you will treat me as your nephew." Tang Wen blocked her words in advance.

"Wenwen, this is too much, just give him a down payment, and we will lend it to you." Auntie still said embarrassedly.

"Sweat, aunt, you don't want my brother to be looked down upon by his family, right? My brother is not young anymore, and it's a bit unreasonable for him to get married without a wedding house. Besides, my brother will have a baby in the future, which will be another expense. This amount of money is just the money for a car for me. If you are not satisfied, then I can only take you to see a villa tomorrow?"

The cousin clenched the card in his hand, and said in a breath: "Wenwen, thank you."

"Goodbye, brother, you helped me a lot in the past." Tang Wen smiled, and added in his heart, "You will help me a lot in the future."

"It's still my good nephew who remembers me." The aunt said with tears in her eyes.

"Okay, okay, let's go for a walk. Brother, you can take my sister-in-law to see houses after the New Year. It's better to buy a few more. Houses are value-preserving these days. Just buy a car worth hundreds of thousands or hundreds of thousands, don't show off." Tang Wen pulled the aunt towards his sister-in-law and cousin.

"Yeah." The cousin nodded, calmed down and walked over with Tang Wen.

"Eh? Mom (eldest aunt), what's wrong with your eyes?" Sister-in-law and cousin asked the aunt whose eyes were a little red.

"It's windy, it's windy." The aunt exchanged a few words.

After a few people strolled outside, Tang Wen received a call from his mother and prepared to eat. So everyone walked back in the direction of his uncle's house.

When they arrived at the door, Tang Wen asked his cousin and himself to get a few bottles of good wine.

"Hiss, Wenwen, this, is this car yours?" The cousin took a breath when he saw the RR logo and the license plate of M88888. He knew the value of this car and the license plate.

Although he knew that Tang Wen had been driving Mercedes-Benz Gs for gifts these days, it was still very scary to suddenly see a Rolls-Royce, not to mention this license plate.

"Well, this car will be driven by my dad in the future. I have a car in CS. Brother, you also take a box." Tang Wen opened the trunk, took out a box of Maotai and explained with a smile.

Cousin Chen Qiuping only now believed that his cousin was not bragging. After Tang Wen took out a box of wine, Chen Qiuping was dumbfounded again.

"A box of Feitian Moutai? Four bottles? This box is probably worth tens of thousands."

In response to his brother's question, Tang Wen perfunctorily said, "It's not much, let's go and have dinner." After that, Tang Wen closed the trunk and walked back. In fact, the price of this bottle of Moutai is as high as 5,000 yuan, and the price of the gift box is doubled.

So this box of wine is worth about 30,000 yuan, and Tang Wen doesn't know much about wine. Anyway, this is the most expensive he can buy locally.

After arriving in the living room, the uncle, uncle-in-law and cousin Longzhong, who love wine like their lives, began to look at the box of wine, and said in amazement: "Good wine, Wenwen, you really spent a lot of money."

"Just make everyone happy."

"Let's eat." The voice of the aunt made everyone start to find their own seats.
