"Hey, Mom!"
"Chen Chuan, I just received three packages, including a few boxes of bird's nests and two mobile phones. The address shows that they were sent from Magic City. Wait, where are you now? This is not your company."
Before the age of 8, Chen Chuan was called baby and darling. From the age of 8 to 18, he was called Chuanzi and brat. After the age of 18, he was called by his name directly.
On the other end of the video was Shen Chuan's mother, Wu Lin, who was about 50 years old, wearing light makeup and had short, neat hair. Her face looked a little dull, which was caused by years of hard work.
Chen Chuan vaguely remembered that when he was in junior high school, his mother's face had a fair and rosy complexion.
However, although her skin color is a little dull, it can be seen that she was definitely a great beauty when she was young.
"Mom, I sent these things. I didn't have time to tell you that I no longer work at my previous company. Now that I've made some money, I bought you two cell phones because I haven't given you any gifts in all these years."
"Oh, by the way, I'm going back for the Mid-Autumn Festival. I want to eat three big crabs!"
Wu Lin watched the video suspiciously. "What are you doing now? This phone is so hot lately. I saw it on Douyin, but it's impossible to buy. I saw in the comments that it costs at least 8,000 yuan. Are you crazy? Buying two such expensive phones!"
"And this bird's nest is also worth 7,000 or 8,000, right? Chen Chuan, you are not doing anything illegal, are you?"
Chen Chuan was puzzled for a moment: "Mom, what nonsense are you talking about? As a son, isn't it my duty to respect you? What are you thinking about!"
"I solemnly promise that I have absolutely not done anything illegal, so you can rest assured."
"You can't spend money like that! How much do you earn in a month to dare spend like that?" Wu Lin scolded the video. "You're still young and you'll have to get married in the future. Let me tell you, the richer you are, the better your wife will be. She'll be able to bring positive help to you in your future life and work. Do you understand?"
Chen Chuan shrugged: "I don't want to get married now."
"I married your father when I was 23, your brother was born when I was 24, and you were born when I was 26. Do you think you are still young?"
"No, you just said I was still young, how come I'm not young now? I'm still a few months away from twenty-four."
"Are you trying to be unreasonable with me? Have you grown wings?"
Chen Chuan muttered softly: "Am I being unreasonable..."
"What did you say!"
"I didn't say anything! I thought about it carefully, and you're right. But I've already bought the things, and you can't ask me to return them. If I return these things, I'll lose at least five or six thousand."
Wu Lin was furious when she heard this: "What?! These are all brand new and unopened, and we're going to lose so much money?"
Chen Chuan chuckled and said, "That's right, the depreciation of this thing is very exaggerated."
“That’s too much!”
Thinking about losing so much money, Wu Lin was reluctant to withdraw. She muttered a few words and said, "Can you really come back this Mid-Autumn Festival?"
"Well, I'm going back for Mid-Autumn Festival this year. Don't forget that I want to eat three big crabs."
"Alright, alright, I get it. Your dad is making a fuss about taking apart his new phone. I'm hanging up."
As soon as he finished speaking, the video was hung up. Chen Chuan felt helpless. He still wanted to chat with his old man.
"You're still hiding it. Do you think I don't know about the old man?"
Shen Chuan sighed and laughed.
