Domineering sister
Hundreds of thousands? !
Not only were the household owners who were discussing matters in the meeting shocked, but the people at the two or three nearby tables also looked at Chen Jin. Chen Jin snorted coldly and put his hands on his hips like his uncle, "Uncle Wen Zhen and Uncle Wen Song were generous enough to let a junior like me take the lead in donating hundreds of thousands. It would be unreasonable for you not to donate a million."
Chen Wenzhen and Chen Wensong looked at each other despite the inquiring eyes of others, and then laughed in tacit understanding, "We were just joking with Third Sister, but she took it seriously."
He smiled on the surface but started cursing in his heart.
They didn't expect Chen Jin to say it out loud. This girl used to be a well-behaved girl in the village, and you wouldn't really tell she had a bad temper. Ever since the demolition, his temper has become harder and harder. No wonder people say that if you have money you will be confident. Look at her now, she is chattering and not giving any face to the elders like them. She is simply losing face.
"Haha, Third Sister is getting more and more irritable now, we were just joking."
Chen Jin also laughed, "Then you really misjudged me. My temper is much better now."
After becoming a counselor, her temper became more restrained and her words became more polite.
After Chen Jin said a few words, everyone actually understood what was going on. Wasn't it that these two people wanted to use their status as elders to get the third sister to donate more money? Although some people hope that others will donate more so that everyone will have to share less money. But we have to look at who she is. A girl in her early twenties, asking others to pay hundreds of thousands just by asking? So shameless! Besides, the third sister is the only one left in her family. What’s the difference between these people and those who want to wipe out the whole family?
Everyone was muttering to themselves, but after looking at the village chief and the old party secretary, everyone fell silent.
"I..." My uncle was about to curse, but a figure rushed out from the side and it was not his turn to speak.
Aunt Zhou let out a loud "Ahhh", attracting everyone's attention. "Are you kidding? Why aren't you kidding me? Why aren't you kidding your father? Are you kidding me?! What kind of person are you? You only want to cheat other people out of their money. You deserve to be divorced and beaten!"
Chen Wensong, who was divorced and beaten: "......"
Chen Wenzhen, who wanted to divorce but failed and was still beaten: "......"
damn it! Why is Zhou Xiangxiang, this troublemaker, everywhere?
"I already said it was just a joke. I apologize to my third sister. Apologies. Uncle said the wrong thing. Is that okay?" Chen Wensong really didn't want to have anything to do with Zhou Xiangxiang anymore. She kept poking at people's hearts. It was enough! Enough!
He is now blaming his father. Why did he get involved in other people's affairs at that time? Not only did he not get any benefits, but he was also stuck by Zhou Xiangxiang, who was like a plaster and would step on him whenever she got the chance. So annoying!
Chen Wenzhen also lowered his head under the cold gaze of his village chief father, "Yes, yes, uncle, I said the wrong thing too."
"It's okay as long as you know you're wrong." Chen Jin felt that she was easy to talk to, as long as others didn't go crazy in front of her. However, "I am a junior and it is not easy to say unpleasant things, but I am not easy to bully. I usually respect my uncles and elders, but I also have to respect people who are worthy of respect. I am a serious person, so if someone jokes with me, I will joke back."
"I don't care about people's lives when I joke. I just make jokes as outrageous as possible. Let's see whose joke is funnier."
Aunt Zhou waved her hand and said directly: "Don't talk so much nonsense. If you meet someone talking nonsense, just slap him in the face and he will learn to talk properly."
Chen Jin took this to heart and nodded seriously, "That's right."
But she is a very sensible person. The only thing in her body that has offensive power is her mouth. If she really starts fighting, someone can slap her away with one slap.
Others: "..."
It’s hard to put it into words.
Chen Sangong, Chen Sanpo and Chen Wenxing couldn't bear to watch. Seeing Zhou Xiangxiang like this, they thought of the tragic scene of her being beaten last year. Third sister... Even when Third sister is angry, she can still talk nicely, but Zhou Xiangxiang doesn't even give people a chance to speak.
I'm too lazy to look at them, for fear of getting implicated.
Chen Wensong and Chen Wenzhen are both sick people. They have to provoke the third sister. Haven’t you seen that Zhou Xiangxiang always helps the third sister? I really don't know...
The three uncles didn't know who to criticize for a moment. Chen Wenzhen and Chen Wensong should be scolded, as they were two weird people. What Zhou Xiangxiang said was not right either, she just gave bad advice.
It would be difficult for them to step out of this situation. If they started scolding Chen Wensong and Chen Wenzhen, that would be really disrespecting them. The third sister cursed back directly, saying that it was just young people who had little experience and were full of youthful energy.
Well, when the third sister’s mouth is shining, it’s as if it has been blessed in Xichan Temple. As long as you don’t suffer any loss, it’s fine.
"You are old and still don't know your limits. What kind of joke can make you so stupid?" The village chief quickly changed the subject, thinking it was just a joke made by the younger generation and then passed on.
It's hard to tell who has a harder time between him and the old branch secretary, as both of them have a troublesome eldest son.
Everyone gave face and didn't look at Chen Wensong and Chen Wenzhen. After Chen Jin's "joke", they began to ask the people on both sides:
“How much did your family donate?”
"Tell me how much your family donated first? Your family received more compensation for the demolition than we did..."
"We don't have much money left. We are not as good-looking as you. We bought a house in Xiuli Community and rented it out, and we have money coming in every month. Please tell me how much your family donated..."
No one was paying attention to this anymore. Chen Jin was still curious about the original question, so he asked, "So, Uncle Wen Song, Uncle Wen Zhen, how much did you donate? Give me a reference. If I donate more than the elders, people will say I'm frivolous and disrespectful. If I donate less, I'm afraid people will call me stingy. Jin, can you give me a standard?"
Chen Wenzhen turned around and stared at Chen Jin for a long time. Chen Jin did not hide, but stared back with wide eyes, "Can't tell? What's there to be said? This is not a bidding, are you afraid that I'm going to cheat you?"
Myocardial infarction.
How can there be someone so shameless and unaware of it! She had just embarrassed them, but she turned around as if nothing had happened, calling them "uncle" in a nice voice and asking questions sincerely.
I really underestimated her before.
He had gone to Qiaoxi Village several times before to ask people about the land sale, and when he heard people say that she was a "troublemaker", he helped to defend her. Now that I think about it, he didn’t say a single thing wrong! The name of this flower is very reasonable and correct!
"Donate 30,000." Chen Wenzhen said in a firm tone.
Chen Jin then uttered a "tsk", as if he didn't say anything, but it also seemed like he said everything.
Chen Wenzhen took a deep breath.
In the end, it was the village chief who took the lead and donated 66,000 yuan himself to seek a good omen. The old branch secretary and my eldest uncle and third uncle each donated 50,000 yuan. Looking again, most of the generation of Chen Wenzhen and Chen Wensong donated 30,000 yuan, and the rest basically donated 10,000 or 20,000 yuan. Chen Jin followed suit and donated 30,000 yuan. Donations alone raised 600,000 yuan. If every family donates, the idea of sharing the cost will be invalidated.
After completing the registration, all the cash was collected and put into the somewhat worn travel bag brought by the village chief.
Who could have imagined that there were hundreds of thousands of dollars in this bag when he went out? !
After the list was finalized, the village chief read it out to everyone so that everyone would know who donated how much money.
Liu Chengzhi glanced at his deskmate Chen Ting's brothers and sisters, then looked at Chen Jin who was called away to discuss something, lowered his head and pursed his lips. At this moment, I intuitively felt the gap between the money I had and the money my parents had.
I heard that when the village expropriated land last week, Chen Jin had the most land and received the most compensation, definitely at least two million.
The 500,000 yuan that Chen Ting received from her father in one go was already a huge sum of money. Chen Jin is involved in both demolition and land acquisition, so he must have more than five million in his hands...
"Chengzhi, start eating." Seeing Liu Chengzhi, who was sitting next to him with his head down and wondering what he was thinking, Chen Yongxin reminded him.
"Okay, second brother, you eat too." Liu Chengzhi exhaled lightly and looked towards the door of the banquet hall. Chen Ting and Chen Jia went out to the toilet and just came back at this moment.
Chen Jin paid the money but did not stay to eat at the other two tables. He said hello to Aunt Zhou and slipped back to his own table to eat. He felt more comfortable there.
For people like them who have a lot of people, when the village has gatherings and meals, they can set up a table at their own home.
As soon as Chen Jin came back, his three cousins were called over and told to go and have a drink with the elders. The cousin called Liu Chengzhi to come over, but before Liu Chengzhi could put down his chopsticks and stand up, Chen Ting held him down again and refused, "Brother, he can't drink much. Besides, we have to go back to the hospital in the afternoon, so we can't drink."
My cousin didn't care. Liu Chengzhi was a doctor and had to go back to work in the afternoon. It was indeed right for him not to drink, so he didn't mention it again.
But Chen Jin saw that Liu Chengzhi was quite embarrassed, and guessed that he wanted to go along to get to know some people so that it would be easier to deal with them in the future.
This guy doesn't know his own position, so it's enough for him to do his own job well and be quiet. With Chen Ting around, it's easy for him to live a good life. But he is too ambitious and wants to get involved in the family business. Not to mention whether he has the ability to do business, no one in this family is stupid enough to want to let an outsider interfere in family affairs.
Oh, except Chen Ting.
However, it will happen again and again, but not for the third time. Let Chen Ting do whatever she wants. People will not turn back until they hit the wall. She doesn't want to say too much and annoy others.
It would be best if she doesn't hit a wall that day.
"Third sister, that teacher Shen who had dinner with me last time..." Chen Yongan winked at her. Chen Jin knew what he meant at a glance and asked calmly, "Did you see me showing off my power just now?"
Chen Yongan nodded and gave her a thumbs up, "Third sister, you are like this. You said that you have a cold and your throat is so hoarse, but you can still speak well."
"Yeah, just because you have a cold and your throat is hoarse doesn't stop me from dealing with you." Chen Jin looked at him, "What else are you curious about?"
Chen Yongan shrank his neck and said, "No more."
Domineering sister! He asked what happened? When we gossip together, don’t we always try to get to the bottom of things? And he was not the only one who was curious. Just now, when the third sister went to attend a meeting, the second and third brothers came to ask him if he knew about the matter between the third sister and Teacher Shen.
He is a college student trapped in school, not from Nanjing University, so how can he know about the third sister's situation?
ah! wrong!
Did the second and third brothers deliberately instigate him to ask the third sister? ! Definitely! That’s too much!
"Just eat properly. Why do you eat like this?" The third aunt glanced at her son across the table, feeling really disappointed in him. When they were 18 or 19 years old, all the older brothers and sisters of the younger son's generation had already started working or had their own plans for success. Only he, alone, only thought about his game console all day long. I really wanted to change the locks at home so that he wouldn't come home on weekends.
"Oh." Chen Yongan didn't feel embarrassed after being criticized and slowed down his eating pace. I glanced at my third sister from time to time, and I felt itchy inside. I really wanted to know if she and Teacher Shen were dating...
Chen Jia was not curious at all. Just looking at the state of the third sister, she didn't seem like she was looking for a boyfriend. Asking is unnecessary and might even get you scolded.
Chen Yongan didn't dare to ask, but Chen Ting did.
"You're dating your neighbor? Your school teacher? That's actually pretty good. You'll be working in the same unit from now on."
Tsk, isn't she trying to say that it's pretty good that she and Liu Chengzhi work in the same unit?
Chen Jin rolled his eyes at her and said, "Do you think I look like someone who is in a relationship? Don't match me up with someone, or I will match you up with someone new."
My aunt is helpless. It is true that the saying "a dragon gives birth to nine sons, each with his own characteristics" is true. The three children in the family have completely different personalities. Although the eldest brother is a little soft-hearted, he at least has some brains and knows how to speak outside the house. Not to mention the second child, he is the smartest one in the family. The only exception is Chen Ting. I didn't think anything was wrong before, but now I find that her personality is becoming more and more weird, and she doesn't even consider people's expressions when she speaks.
She said something that didn't exist, but people judged her as being in a relationship right away. If the third sister really had a boyfriend, she would definitely bring him out to meet her family. How could she hide it?
Glancing at Liu Chengzhi next to Chen Ting, the two of them together were simply two extremes mixed together. She couldn't tell whether this was a good thing or a bad thing.
"No, then no. I thought you were dating someone, otherwise why don't you ask your brothers and sisters to go have dinner with them?" Eating with family members, isn't this a signal?
Chen Jin was glad that he didn't spray her just now, otherwise he would have hurt her by mistake. "Didn't my second brother tell you why he invited Teacher Shen to dinner?"
"I didn't have time to tell him. He called me and said you were going to treat your neighbor to a meal. I had something urgent to do at the hospital so I didn't ask any more questions." Chen Ting took a sip of her drink. "So, why did you treat your neighbor to a meal?"
Chen Jin: "The weather is good, and the fortune teller said that inviting him to dinner will bring me good fortune, so I invited him to dinner."
Then he sincerely suggested: "Go home more often when you have time."
The elders in the family did not explicitly tell the younger generations that it was Shen Baichuan who gave the news about the land acquisition, but the other brothers and sisters could guess a little bit, but they didn’t know how much Shen Baichuan revealed. Everyone tacitly agreed not to mention this matter, but everyone had to be aware of it.
Day by day, I know nothing about what's going on at home. In the future, I might become the next aunt and won't be able to integrate into the circle of brothers and sisters.
By the way, I haven’t seen my aunt for a while. Her life was so busy and leisurely that she couldn't think about her aunt at all. However, after returning from Quan City, cousin Minmin called her to thank her and said that the gold bracelet she gave her was very beautiful.
You see, she is still very generous to her family, but the kindness she has shown needs to have some response. If there is no response and they blame her instead, then forget it.
The reason given by the third sister for "fortune telling" was simply outrageous but it did contain the truth. Chen Jia and Chen Yongan tried hard to hold back their laughter. Chen Ting, who was completely unaware of the situation, just thought that Chen Jin was talking nonsense again.
Liu Chengzhi also quickly agreed, "Yes, Third Sister is right. We should go home more often in the future."
Chen Ting glared at him unhappily and muttered softly, "It's because every time you come back with me, you have nothing to talk about with them..."
Liu Chengzhi tugged at the corner of her clothes, signaling her to stop talking. It is normal that Chen Ting’s brothers and sisters don’t think highly of him. Is he complaining all the time just because they don’t think highly of him now? It's totally useless.
Before, I could still coax Chen Ting to spend more time with her brothers and sisters at home, but later it became increasingly difficult to convince her. He also had to thank Chen Jin for saying that.
Chen Jin silently looked away, not wanting to look at the two people's sticky appearance, which made her eyes hurt.
When she turned around, she saw Chen Yongan and Chen Jia laughing at her, and rolled her eyes again, "Don't come in front of me and hurt my eyes when you find a partner in the future."
Chen Yongan enthusiastically brought her a cup of warm water and said, "Third sister, you should take a rest." She said her throat was uncomfortable, and her voice was a little hoarse, but the frequency of her speech was not much different from usual.
Just as I put down my chopsticks after finishing my meal, Chen Jiaxin from Uncle Chen's family came over.
This group of young people got together and talked about all kinds of strange topics, so the three aunts went to other tables to make room for them. With their three elders here, Zhuang Yao and Liu Chengzhi were a little hesitant to talk, so they decided to leave.
Chen Jiaxin and Chen Jin said, "Last time you said you wanted to go out for photos, let's move it to a later time. My photography shop is temporarily closed, and I'm going to move to a better storefront."
Jokingly, "It's a bit dangerous for us two golden single girls to get together now."
Chen Jin looked back and didn't see any empty chair, so he tapped Chen Yongan and asked him to make room for him, and then asked Chen Jiaxin to sit down and chat.
It made my throat feel even more uncomfortable when I tilted my head back to talk.
Chen Yongan silently moved the empty chair on the table and sat behind them.
He also heard from his parents that Chen Jiaxin's siblings were targeted by someone who wanted to use a "honey trap". He seriously considered what he would do if he encountered such a thing, but his parents said that it would be safest for him to go home less often and stay in school. They didn't believe that his classmates at school would like him...
"Those people want to use honey trap on you, or kidnap you?"
Chen Jiaxin sneered and said, "A regular customer suddenly came to my shop. He came to talk to me about photography every day. I ignored him. I guess they were anxious and wanted to arrange a hero to save the beauty. Several people came to rob me, and the man chasing me was waiting for the opportunity nearby. Fortunately, the police came quickly. What a bastard, he thought I couldn't see through his little tricks, humph!"
"So what happened in the end?"
"Those people didn't give him up, so they went to jail. My dad asked someone to put a sack around the man and beat him up. He's much more honest now."
Chen Jin was surprised and looked at the honest and simple Uncle Chen Wu in front of him. Aunt Chen Wu had a similar personality and temper to Uncle Chen Wu. They were both really honest people, unlike Zhang Leye who pretended to be honest.
I didn't expect they could do something like putting a sack on someone.
Chen Jiaxin saw Chen Jin's confusion and said, "My parents can think of it but they don't have the ability. The village chief and your uncle found someone..."
“…” Makes sense. Chen Jin lowered his head and drank a sip of warm water. "This man really deserves to be beaten."
Chen Jia was very confused. "What are these people thinking? They think they can lure people in just by sending a man? Is he more handsome than Liming? Who would fall for a strange man for no reason?"
Chen Jiaxin: "Not a stranger, he was my high school classmate, I even wrote him a love letter before."
"Ah?" Chen Jia was stunned, "Then now..."
"I'm not stupid. He didn't like me before, but now he likes me because I'm rich. How can he be a good person? He is good-looking. There are good-looking people on the street. Why should I care?"
Chen Jin and the others fell silent.
This cliché story is too familiar.
Chen Ting stood up and walked out. Liu Chengzhi looked unhappy and hurriedly followed.
Confused Chen Jiaxin: "She left first because of something?"
But it doesn't matter, it doesn't matter whether Chen Ting listens or not. Chen Jiaxin said: "You should also be careful, be careful that your former male classmates come to you."
Chen Jin waved his hand nonchalantly, "No, they won't come looking for me."
