Chapter 323 This is Telling Tales
Gu Siqing didn't ride in the same car with Wang Yueju. After returning home, she told her what she had heard from Ye Chi about the Xia family's situation, and then said with a smile: "Mom, do you feel like you've missed out on hundreds of millions?"
Wang Yueju hit her lightly and said, "You are disrespectful. No matter how rich they are, it's theirs. Besides, we are not doing badly now."
Gu Siqing gave her mother a thumbs up. Comrade Wang Yueju's attitude towards money is worthy of admiration.
Money is important in difficult times, which is why there's a saying that even a penny can stump a hero. But when money accumulates to a certain level, it becomes just a pile of stuff, a string of numbers.
Even so, everyone still wants to pile up more and more things, and the numbers will keep growing. This is actually a kind of self-satisfaction, but in this process of self-satisfaction, sticking to one's original intention is the most important thing.
What is mine is mine, and I won’t take anything that is not mine. This is also a kind of original mind.
The Xia family also arrived home at this time and sat in the living room. Xia Yi and Xia Ying took out the red envelope given by Wang Yueju and opened it. Inside were twenty hundred-yuan bills. Xia Yi said directly: "My aunt is not afraid of people saying she is a nouveau riche."
He gave me two thousand yuan as a gift, which was really generous.
"How can you talk like that?" Feng Hailan took the money from him and said, "I'll keep the money for you first. You're in school, you don't need so much money."
Xia Yi: ""
I'm not warm yet!
Xia Ying looked at the money in her hand and asked with a smile, "Do you want to take mine too?"
Feng Hailan waved her hand, "You can keep yours for now. You spend a lot of money on school."
Xia Yi: ""
This is too much discrimination. But he didn't care. Xia Ying naturally spent more money studying abroad.
"I've figured out that Yueju and her family don't like to take advantage of others," said Old Lady Xia. The reason they gave such a large red envelope was because Xia Qingzhang had given the children expensive gifts before, right?
Xia Qingzhang took a sip of tea and said, "This is good." It's better than being short-sighted and trying to take advantage of others when you see an opportunity.
Old Lady Xia placed the small box she had intended to give to Wang Yueju on the coffee table and said, "It's good, but it's too formal."
"They're not familiar with us, so it's not normal for them to be so distant?" Xia Yi hit the nail on the head. Xia Ying was afraid that Old Lady Xia and Xia Qingzhang would be upset again, so she immediately changed the subject and asked, "Is the child sitting with Xiao Si really from the Su family?"
"Su Wenshan got it when he was sent to the countryside as an educated youth." Xia Zhengming said, "That kid is no ordinary person. He's a champion in the International Mathematical Olympiad and has already been accepted by Harvard. He'll go to school after the New Year."
After saying that, he sighed again, "The Su family is worried now. They don't recognize such outstanding children."
Xia Yi: "He abandoned his wife and children, why would anyone recognize him?"
Everyone in the Xia family: ""
Could you not be so blunt?
Xia Zhengming didn't know whether to laugh or cry. Who did this child take after? No one in the family had a sharp tongue. He couldn't help but look at Feng Hailan. No one in the Feng family had a sharp tongue either!
Feng Hailan: Why are you looking at me? I didn't teach you that.
Xia Qingzhang also laughed. He said, "Our ancestors did have someone with a personality similar to Xiaoyi. He was straightforward and didn't care about feelings. In the end, he achieved great success and became the Left Censor-in-Chief."
After chatting, Xia Qingzhang returned to his study and called Su Mingchang to tell him about Xia Yuan. He couldn't really ignore the daughter he had raised, no matter how bad her condition. Given her current situation, it would be good for her to leave Kyoto and start a new life.
Xiangjiang is the best choice.
After the call was connected, the two chatted for a while, and then he said what he meant: "You know about Xia Yuan's situation. She doesn't want to stay in Kyoto now. After thinking about it, I think it's better for her to go to Hong Kong. You can take care of her then."
"Does she have any plans after arriving in Hong Kong?" Su Mingchang asked.
In fact, in the past, Su Mingchang would have definitely not asked anything and let Xia Yuan go directly to Hong Kong, even if it was Hong Kong that Xia Yuan's family would have no problem supporting her. But Xia Yuan had bullied Xiao Si so harshly before, so he couldn't just take on the responsibility.
But he couldn't say no, after all, the two families were old friends.
"You old bastard, are you trying to play tricks on me?" Xia Qingzhang said with a smile. "I won't embarrass you. First, help me find a house over there and buy a suitable one. That way, she'll have a place to stay when she goes there, and then you can just take care of her from time to time."
Su Mingchang didn't hide anything from him and said, "You know the situation in our family. We only have one child, and he and Xiao Si are childhood sweethearts. It's not good for me to interfere too much in your Xia Yuan's affairs."
Xia Qingzhang smiled bitterly. Xia Yuan probably never imagined that bullying Xiao Si would lead to such a severe backlash.
"I didn't ask you to take care of her too much. She's grown up now and should take her own responsibilities." Xia Qingzhang sighed. He couldn't take care of her for the rest of her life.
"Okay, I'll have someone arrange it tomorrow." Su Mingchang said.
The two chatted for a while before hanging up the phone. Su Mingchang sat in the study and thought for a while, then went to find Su Wenshan and told him about Xia Qingzhang calling him. Then he said, "How about I go see Zhengping tomorrow? Tell him that the Xia family is planning to send Xia Yuan to Hong Kong."
Su Wenshan: ""
Your excuse is a bit far-fetched.
Seeing that he was silent, Su Mingchang said, "Isn't it good? I think this is a good reason!"
Su Wenshan: "You are telling tales."
Su Mingchang was not happy to hear this. "Compared to Xia Qingzhang, of course the grandson is more important."
"Okay, go ahead if you want to." Su Wenshan said.
Su Mingchang nodded and turned back to his room to prepare well.
Then the next morning, Gu Siqing and Han Zhengping met a kind elderly couple. They were followed by two secretaries, who were carrying a lot of things in their hands.
Although Gu Siqing and Han Zhengping didn't know them, Su Mingchang looked very similar to Su Wenshan, so they knew who they were at a glance.
Without waiting for them to speak, An Ruijin smiled and said, "You are Xiao Si, right? You are really pretty. I have never seen a girl as pretty as you."
"This kid is quite clever," Su Mingchang said nearby. "He's published a book at such a young age, and it's such a bestseller. He's the only one like him in the country."
The two of them praised Gu Siqing for a long time, and Gu Siqing felt embarrassed. She didn't even know that she was so good, unparalleled in the world.
Even if Han Zhengping had no feelings for the Su family, he couldn't turn away Xiao Si coldly when he was praised so highly. He could only say, "It's cold outside. Let's talk inside."
"Okay, okay." Su Mingchang and An Ruijin hurried into the Gu family's yard, so fast that they didn't seem like old men at all.
