Chapter 1328 Weird Relatives Part 2

All the relatives came and sat down at four tables. The family members did not sit according to their status, but according to their seniority. Yang Dongxu and other younger generations sat aside, pouring wine and serving food for the elders, and occasionally chiming in during the conversation.

When asked about business and the children's studies, the table was in harmony. When the eldest cousin Qian Aiguo saw that the wine on the table was Wuliangye, he drank it all up without saying anything. He looked very generous and happy. He didn't pay any attention to his son who was sitting beside him with a sad face.

Yang Dongxu obviously would not promise to set up a construction team for Qian Hai. He would rather give Qian Hai money and let him eat and do nothing than let him spend money to do all kinds of things.

So he changed the subject at that time and didn't take up the topic at all, but Qian Hai turned to that topic. Yang Dongxu simply turned around and left. He was too lazy to deal with many important banquets.

Qian Hai's lack of vision and pretentious expression basically wore out his patience. At most, when he goes to the city to give his second aunt a New Year gift in two days, if his second aunt asks about it, he will explain it a little. If she doesn't ask, he will pretend not to know about this matter. As for his cousin Qian Hai, he feels that it is a waste of time to say more.

The reason why Qian Hai is frowning is half because his cousin, who is obviously very rich, doesn't lend him money for business, and he is not saying that he will not pay it back.

If he takes on a few projects and has money, won't he replace the borrowed money? As for the money borrowed before, isn't it because the business failed and there is no money to pay it back?

As for the other half of the reason, even if he reacts slowly, he feels that he seems to have offended this cousin who needs to be flattered. But thinking back to what he said before, there is nothing wrong, how could he offend him?

When there are many people, the meal will be slow, especially when a group of relatives are drinking and eating, they chat and talk about the nature of the meal. It is common to eat a meal for several hours.

Yang Dongxu didn't drink when he was going to drive, and Li Li and He Xin drove here and didn't drink either. Qian Hai was a little greedy when he saw Wuliangye, but he saw that Yang Dongxu said that he couldn't drink alcohol when he drove here, and his other two cousins ​​didn't drink either, so he was embarrassed to drink alone, so he could only eat the dishes with his eyes wide open.

We had lunch at about 12 noon and ate until nearly 3 in the afternoon. After dinner, he sat down to smoke and drink tea, and it was already 3 o'clock and 4 o'clock.

It gets dark early in winter, so everyone started to get up and say goodbye. Since the gifts were brought here, they would definitely not be taken back. Although there were a lot of things, they would definitely not be eaten up.

After all, there will be another wave of relatives to visit after the New Year, but the things that can be frozen can be kept in the freezer for slow consumption, and those that cannot be stored. My grandparents also have relatives and friends left by the older generation, so it won't be wasted if I give some to this family and take some to that family.

My eldest cousin's family is from the city, so the road is far, so I gave them a gift first. Although Qian Hai wanted to speak with eager eyes, Yang Dongxu didn't give him a chance to speak.

Watching this family leave, I don't know if it was an illusion, all the relatives breathed a sigh of relief. Then the atmosphere seemed to be more harmonious in an instant. After chatting for a while, everyone got in the car and went home.

"I didn't have the convenience to ask before because there were so many people. Did Qian Hai ask you to borrow money again?" Yang's mother asked on the way back.

"Almost. Just now, I saw that he wanted me to support him to set up a construction team like Heli. I didn't accept this." Yang Dongxu nodded.

"It's right not to accept it. You don't know. When you didn't come back this year, his family came to our house three or four times, and I didn't pay much attention to the matter of borrowing money.

Later, he went to your aunt and second aunt's house to make trouble. Your second aunt was kind enough to lend her 100,000 yuan. You told them that you wanted to buy a storefront and set up a small store. As a result, it's been almost half a year since the money was lent, and there's no sign of the small store." Yang's mother said with an unhappy face.

"I said, he mentioned the garment factory, so he should have some ideas about it. Why did he say he wanted to set up a construction team in the end? At first, I thought he felt that setting up a construction team in Chengwang City was a good idea, but it turned out that he didn't dare to go to Hexin because he hadn't paid back the money he borrowed." Yang Dongxu said speechlessly.

"So don't pay attention to him. At most, I will take your second aunt to our house after the New Year to live in her old age. Your second aunt is often mad at their family. She is already in poor health when she is old. Don't let them make her sick."

"Then take her over. If she is not used to living in our house, then she can switch between my grandpa's house and my little grandpa's house. It happens that our market is lively here. My second aunt also has many acquaintances at my grandpa's house, so she will definitely not be bored to chat." Yang Dong agreed with this idea.

As for whether his cousin's family would often come to the house to make trouble under the pretext of visiting his old mother, they dare not show their teeth when Yang's mother gets angry.

There is no need to worry about my grandpa. When my little grandpa gets angry, he will definitely chase people away with a stick. So I didn't have to worry about that pair of father and son nagging me if I took my second aunt over.

After giving out New Year gifts, it was basically the end of the year.

Yang Dongxu was walking with his son who had just used firecrackers to blow a hole in his new clothes when the general came to the door.

"Brother, when are you leaving after the New Year?" The general handed him a cigarette and lit it.

"On the sixth or seventh day of the New Year, I'll visit my relatives first, then go out to deal with some things, and then come back for the fifteenth."

"You're going to drive the car too?" the general asked.

"No, your sister-in-law probably won't leave before the fifteenth, and this kid won't leave until after the fifteenth to start school. I'll leave the car at home for your sister-in-law to drive. Why do you need to borrow the car for something?"

Cars are not suitable for use in rural areas. Apart from the issue of face, a Mercedes-Benz worth millions is not as easy to drive as a pickup truck or minivan worth hundreds of thousands. So when Yang Dongxu and Zhou Ya left, they took a plane.

But the car will allow people to drive from Pearl City to the Magic City, and will not leave them at home to gather dust. After all, things like cars and home appliances are more durable if they are used more than not.

"Zhang Jing's brother is getting married on the seventh day of the Lunar New Year. Why don't you leave on the seventh day of the Lunar New Year and drive the car away. If anything happens to my sister-in-law, I also have a car at home. If my eldest father doesn't have time, I will drive my sister-in-law." The general spoke.

"Is this what they came to visit today for?" Yang Dongxu asked.

"Otherwise?" The general curled his lips.

He really doesn't like his father-in-law's family, but he really likes Zhang Jing. Of course, Zhang Jing is also a good person. So most of the time the general also controls his temper.

But today when he came to borrow money as a bride price, he didn't know what to say. My brother-in-law actually wanted to use Da Ben as a wedding car.

Originally, I said that Yang Dongxu's car cost several million, because I wanted to remind him that the situation would be a bit chaotic when he got married, and it would not be good if such an expensive car bumped into each other.

I didn't look at him and the Xiaowu brothers. Although they also coveted luxury cars, they all enjoyed riding in them. At most, they just took a stroll in the courtyard of the old house's courtyard. They never drove by?

Yang Dongxu didn't care about the arrogance of this elder brother, but they had to know good from evil. If they bump into each other while driving, they will definitely fix it. Yang Dongxu doesn't care, but this is something that people don't understand, right?

But when he heard that the car cost several million, his brother-in-law's eyes shone even more. He was also talking about what kind of flowers he wanted to place in front of the car and what kind of decorations he wanted to make next to it. The more he listened, the more he frowned and almost didn't ask his brother-in-law to cool off on the spot.

It was Zhang Jing who gave him a hand and showed off. Only then did he hold back his temper and come to Yang Dongxu to say something. If you want to use the other person's car, it will be driven away on the same day, so that both parties have steps to get off. Although Zhang Jing was not happy during the Chinese New Year, she did not want to have any conflicts with her parents' family.

"Okay, I'll drive the car away on the seventh day of the lunar month and leave it at the airport for two days. It just so happens that I'm going out this time, so I'll probably be back in just two or three days." Yang Dongxu said with a smile, "Where's the car today? Come to borrow money?"

"It's more than just borrowing money. Look at what they mean. Not only do they want me to pay for the betrothal gift, they also ask me to pay for a car." The general became angry when he said this.

I didn't agree to it before, and insisted on marrying my daughter to the son of an official in the county to pave the way for me and lose face. Now it's better to just treat him as a scapegoat, just like he opened a bank to print money. He came to his door ten times every now and then to ask for money nine times out of ten.

"What did Zhang Jing say?"

"Give me 50,000 yuan, which is considered a loan. If you don't repay this money, I won't give you a dime except for gifts during New Years and holidays. This is because the woman is holding back the gift money and won't let go, otherwise Zhang Jing won't want to give the 50,000 yuan." "The general said.

He could also understand his wife's decision to fill in her natal family. After all, it was such a big event as his brother's marriage. She can't watch her brother get married, right?

But my parents kept borrowing money again and again, and my younger brother still made various demands without knowing what was right. It was obvious that Zhang Jing's patience had reached its peak.

This time she borrowed money and asked for the IOU with a straight face. If there was any nonsense in the future, she would just use the borrowed money in the past. Let’s talk directly about this IOU. It’s easy to talk about repaying the money. If you don’t pay back the money, don’t talk about borrowing money again.

"Zhang Jing is a good woman. She is pregnant now. You should bear more of the burden." Thinking about his former uncle who was not a good person, and his eldest cousin's family, Yang Dongxu patted the general on the shoulder.

"I know. In fact, it was me who asked for the fifty thousand yuan loan, not Zhang Jing. I also wanted his brother to get married so that there wouldn't be any trouble. I just worried that Zhang Jing couldn't make any noise while she was pregnant.

Otherwise, I didn't want to deal with that family at all. Zhang Jing insisted on writing the IOU, and Zhang Jing almost quarreled with her mother over this matter. "The expression on the general's face relaxed when he mentioned his wife. This wife is really annoying.

Looking at the patriarchal faces of her parents, you can imagine how wronged Zhang Jing was at home in the past. In such a family environment, it is simply a miracle that he can still have such an optimistic character.

"You've grown up." Yang Dongxu said with a smile.

The general gave him a look of displeasure. Although the two of them were not much different in age, Yang Dongxu had always behaved calmly. But this smile like that of an old father made the general feel very pained.

"Haha, okay, I won't tease you anymore. We are getting married on the seventh day of the lunar month, right? I'll ask your sister-in-law to give you a gift."

"I was just about to tell you about this. I can arbitrarily charge the same price to the family at 200. We are in a rural area, and the richer relatives at the top of the family can only get 500.

In such a roundabout relationship, even a hundred is considered generous. You can get two hundred even in the county town, so don't take more. I will only tell Xiaowu and the others about this matter. "

"Okay, got it." Yang Dongxu nodded.

According to current prices, two hundred is indeed a lot. You must know that in rural areas, a wedding gift of 10,000 or 20,000 yuan is considered too much. In the city, a wedding gift of 50,000 yuan is a good deal, and a 200 yuan gift is indeed a lot.

I walked around the street to greet the general before he returned home.

"How are you, brother-in-law?" Zhang Jing's younger brother Zhang Dong responded quickly when he saw the general coming back.

"Brother Xuzi is going out on the seventh day of the first lunar month and will drive away. I can't lend it to you." The general said.

Zhang Dong's face darkened. This B obviously couldn't pretend.

But he turned his eyes and said, "I heard that your brother Xuzi is very rich and always flies when he goes out. He must drive to Zhucheng to take the plane. How about we drive him there and then drive the car back?"

"Do you want to go back and forth and wait until after noon to drive to pick up the bride? Or let Xuzi get up in the middle of the night to catch the plane at the airport?" The general glared and raised his voice several degrees.

"Then how about changing the wedding date to the sixth day of the first lunar month?" Zhang Dong was still a little afraid when his brother-in-law lost his temper.

The general didn't want to talk anymore and almost blurted out the word "get out".
