Chapter 85
When the younger cousin first received the message from her eldest brother-in-law, she thought that her eldest brother-in-law invited her and her eldest cousin to dinner today in order to ease the relationship with her eldest cousin. After all, their previous quarrel had spread throughout the family group.
In particular, my aunt and uncle would rudely tag my cousin several times a day in the family group and scold him.
My aunt and uncle criticized my cousin from head to toe, even calling him a psychopath, even though they had previously regarded him as an honor.
Even the relatives in the family group couldn't stand it anymore and rushed to persuade them, but unfortunately, if my aunt and uncle had listened to the advice, they wouldn't have ended up like this.
Especially my uncle, he finally experienced the parental authority over his own son, and he would not let go of this opportunity.
"Don't worry about it, he's my own son. I don't know whether this kid is really sad or just having a bad temper."
My uncle said this bluntly in the family group.
"He is just hypocritical. Like his brother, he takes after their mother."
My aunt was unhappy about this and quarreled with my uncle in the family group for several days. My younger cousin felt it was not worth it for my older cousin.
And my little cousin’s parents were also wondering why such a good child doesn’t have good parents?
This is also the consensus of other relatives in the family group.
But after all, it was someone else's family, so they ultimately did not get involved and just watched them scolding.
At this time, the little cousin discovered something was wrong.
The eldest cousin didn't reply to them at all. It was as if he didn't see the comments and he didn't reply at all. The younger cousin was so scared that she thought something had happened to the eldest cousin.
Fortunately, when she sent a message to her eldest cousin, he said that he was now helping his second cousin with some work. Although it was just some chores, it would be impossible without someone close to watch over it.
This made the younger cousin feel relieved. As long as the older cousin was fine, it would be a good opportunity to avoid her aunt and uncle.
After hearing the news about her aunt and uncle from her, her eldest cousin didn't say anything, but just sent her a red envelope.
The little cousin naturally accepted it without hesitation. After all, he was the brother she grew up with, and there was no difference between him and her biological brother.
But after receiving the red envelope and looking at the four-digit amount inside, the little cousin suddenly felt a little hot. She thought that the eldest cousin would only give him a three-digit amount, and she would be able to pay it back if she worked hard. Now this four-digit amount...
Now that her boss is giving her a hard time, she really can’t afford to pay him back!
The little cousin felt suffocated when she thought of her stupid boss. Not only did he check his phone every day, but he also came to her desk every day.
If she hadn't been lucky enough not to have been caught, she would have ended up like the clerk next door who was fired for playing with his cell phone.
God knows that the clerk just sent a few messages to her family. Isn't this normal? But the leader seemed to want to make some achievements, so he included them all in the scope of investigation, which also caused her to have bad luck during this period.
This was also the reason why she did not refuse when she received the invitation from her brother-in-law. First, they were a family after all. He invited her to dinner with her cousin. Maybe he wanted to make peace with her cousin and asked him to come as a lobbyist. Second...
She had been craving the braised beef brisket in this restaurant for a long time, but her parents were busy and she couldn't come over because of his work, so she nodded and agreed to come over under the temptation of the delicious food.
But when the little cousin sat down at the table, she found that although she came here as a lobbyist, she was not the only lobbyist this time.
——This time, my cousin’s husband actually invited my aunt and uncle!
How could this be reconciliation with my cousin? This was completely an attempt to put pressure on my cousin!
My cousin feels her blood pressure rising just thinking about it. If her partner doesn't even say hello to her in the future and uses this kind of moral kidnapping and filial piety pressure to put pressure on her, she will really just flip the table and leave.
But now is not the time to think about what I would do. The key point is what my eldest cousin would do.
So before her cousin came, the little cousin had been sending messages to her girlfriends group.
They were close friends and had been together since childhood. The older cousin had moved to the capital, and the others were also living far away, but their parents were still in touch. So they were also aware of the affairs of her two cousins.
Before the little cousin sent the message, her girlfriends were still chatting about her second cousin.
Their conversation was rather superficial, and because of her recent shitty boss, my little cousin didn't really discuss the matter with her girlfriends.
But now the little cousin was not in the mood to gossip with them about her second cousin, so she posted directly in the group, asking for help.
"Sisters, help me! Oh my god, my cousin invited me over for dinner, and my aunt and uncle are here too!"
The sisters in the group responded immediately.
"I mean your aunt who is a special teacher and treats everyone as students and your uncle who is submissive at the factory but acts like an emperor at home? My God, does your cousin have a grudge against you?"
The little cousin said immediately.
"No, I'm my cousin's husband. I originally thought that he invited me to dinner to make my cousin reconcile with him. After all, they had a fight some time ago. That's why I agreed. But who would have thought that he didn't come to reconcile with my cousin at all. He came purely to put pressure on my cousin!"
The group exploded.
"Wow, is he a kindergarten kid? What's the difference between this and calling the parents directly? And my mom has heard that the man your cousin married is from a very rich family, and your aunt and uncle flatter him to death. This time your aunt and uncle are definitely on your cousin's side. Oh my god, I feel suffocated just thinking about it!"
"Your eldest cousin is really miserable..."
Most of the girls in the girlfriends group were expressing their sympathy for the older cousin, and some people were also starting to feel sympathy for the younger cousin.
"The one who is suffering the most right now is Qi Qi! She originally came here to eat for free, but now she is helping to put pressure on her cousin. How miserable will it be if her eldest cousin holds a grudge against her? But her eldest cousin is quite good to Qi Qi and even gave her a red envelope some time ago."
Feng Chuan sent a message to her girlfriends group.
Her family and Wang Qi's family originally lived upstairs and downstairs, and the elders in the family also worked in the same company. Although they later separated to seek development, the two families did not lose contact, so she naturally knew the situation of Wang Qi's family.
After discussing for a long time in the group of girlfriends, Wang Qi sent another message.
"Help! Sister Feng understands me. Help me, everyone! My cousin has come in. He was smiling originally, but now he has no expression on his face when he sees his parents! Why is the braised beef brisket only coming up now? I haven't even picked up a piece of it with my chopsticks. Now I don't even dare to stretch out my chopsticks. I'm really afraid that they will start fighting and overturn the table. My braised beef brisket, wuwuwu."
Feng Chuan: …
"Why don't you just live with your braised beef brisket for the rest of your life? A fight is about to break out, and you're still thinking about your broken braised beef brisket!"
The row of tape recorders below were all repeating this sentence.
Although they said so, Feng Chuan and his childhood friends in the group quickly gave Wang Qi advice, telling her that if the situation got bad, she should either hide in a corner or call the police.
——Of course, the prerequisite is to throw away her braised beef brisket.
"Don't get involved in this kind of thing. This is their family's business. The only outsider is you, a greedy girl. Besides, you are young and stand on your brother's side. It doesn't matter if you say a few words occasionally."
My little cousin also sent an emoticon of approval and began to update the situation on the scene in real time in the group.
"My brother actually didn't say anything, he just held it in and sat down, and his opening remarks were actually quite normal."
"Let's start eating. Let's start eating. There's nothing wrong. My brother-in-law is even picking up some food for my older cousin. The braised beef brisket is really delicious."
"Oh wow, my aunt suddenly started scolding my cousin, asking why he couldn't even do such a simple thing and even asked my cousin's husband to pick food for him! What does it have to do with you if it's not the interest of a young couple?"
"My uncle has also joined the group. My cousin-in-law didn't say anything and even tried to persuade them. But isn't he just adding fuel to the fire? I always feel like he has a lot of bad intentions in his heart."
Naturally, my childhood friends were also enjoying the feast and commenting on it.
"It's just the beginning after all, and I guess your cousin-in-law will be kneeling on the washboard when you get home."
"So, how delicious is the braised beef brisket? You greedy girl has been thinking about it all day."
"Tsk tsk tsk, you are worthy of being my aunt and uncle. You really didn't disappoint us. I am really beginning to doubt whether your two cousins are your aunt's biological children."
The discussion in the girlfriends group was in full swing, and each message Wang Qi sent to the group was more blood-pressure-raising than the last.
"It's not what they said, can anyone really say that? Your cousin has only been out there without a career for a month at most, right? Doesn't he have a nanny at home? What kind of brain circuit does your aunt have to question why her son doesn't stay at home to serve his partner?"
"...You even want your second brother to help your eldest brother-in-law make money, and let your eldest cousin stay at home??? Are they really biological children?"
"It may be because in this person's eyes, his son has found a golden rice bowl after hooking up with a rich man. He must be clinging to it every day. Moreover, the golden rice bowl must make more money than their son. Unfortunately, their youngest son would rather take their eldest brother to make money than take these two old men with him."
"...I can't bear it anymore. I can't bear to watch this anymore. My blood pressure is high. Wang Qi, where are you now? Can I punch your aunt and uncle each?"
"I just got my sinus rhythm. The company recently received a big order. I was busy to begin with, and then I had this high blood pressure thing. I feel like my anxiety has become physical."
Feng Chuan even felt dizzy and wondered if this was really something his biological parents could do?
In front of his child's partner, he accused his child of being lazy, greedy, and neglecting the family, and of suffocating others in the mud, and he thought that the person who hired him was blind.
However, after learning that the person who hired Song Yun was their youngest son, they changed their attitude and asked Song Yun to give up this opportunity to his partner.
Even when they heard that Song Yun didn't want to participate in the variety show, these two were jumping up and down, as if Song Yun had missed a good opportunity.
Obviously, all of this is based on personal wishes, but it seems like a mandatory requirement.
Throughout the whole process, the husband who was said to have a good relationship with Song Yun did not say a word. He just watched his partner being belittled by his biological parents and happily reaped the benefits behind their backs.
Even though Wang Qi couldn't help but retort, the overbearing aura of his aunt and uncle, coupled with their status as outsiders, made Wang Qi very angry.
The sisters in the group were also very angry, and Wang Qi was so scared that she didn't dare to update the progress in the group.
But just when they thought the matter was over, Wang Qi suddenly sent another message to the group 20 minutes later.
"——Second cousin, you are my God!"
Although this sentence was incoherent, it attracted the attention of everyone in the group. Even Feng Chuan lost his mind to work and quickly asked Wang Qi what had happened.
Wang Qi did not keep anyone in suspense and readily released the on-site intelligence.
"My second cousin descended from the sky like a god, pointed at my aunt and uncle's noses and yelled at them for being idiots!"
The little cousin happily put away her cell phone and looked at the handsome young man standing at the door of the box and her older cousin who was so angry that his eyes were red. She only felt that her second cousin, who was 1.8 meters tall, was extremely tall.
Of course, she also noticed that her brother-in-law sat in his seat in a daze after his second cousin came in and pointed at his aunt and uncle and called them idiots.
But then the little cousin was startled by a slap from her uncle on the table.
"You! You rebellious son! I am your biological father. I scold you for your own good. Besides, what ability does Song Yun have to work? He has been a househusband at home for 7 years. Am I not better than him as your biological father who works diligently to support you?!"
However, the handsome young man standing at the door had an extremely cold expression on his face, looking at him as if he were a stranger, but the words that came out of his mouth were not delayed for even a second.
"My brother's work ability is outstanding, and I am willing to support him, instead of my parents who cut off my living expenses after I turned 18, so that I had to work part-time during my four years in college."
The handsome young man said without even blinking.
"And the way you're making a scene now because you can't get a job and you find there's no advantage to be gained, really makes me want to say something."
"Mr. Song, are you still breastfeeding?"
The handsome young man said extremely insulting words with a calm face, which made Song's father so angry that his face turned red.
When Ye's mother heard what her youngest son said, she couldn't help but frowned. She was about to scold him harshly, but she found that her youngest son had already turned his head to her and said something.
"And Ms. Ye, please shut up. I am not your student, and I don't need to follow your will to live my life. In fact, you know exactly how your will makes you live."
"—Don't let my brother inherit your miserable life as well."
The handsome young man spoke again calmly.
Just now he was a little emotional and cursed directly, but now his words did not contain a single curse word, but were extremely insulting.
——At least the little cousin saw that her aunt and uncle’s faces were red.
He looked like he was about to faint at any moment.
"…I am your parents! How dare you say that about us! Did all the rice and grain I fed you all those years go to waste?"
It took a long time before the little cousin saw her uncle catch his breath and shout to her second cousin.
The little cousin now thought to herself that this was not good, because this was the moral high ground that parents were best at using, and it was also the most difficult to overturn.
However, just when the little cousin was about to send a message to the group for help, she heard her cousin speaking in a calm and unconcerned manner.
"I'll yell at you now but later I'll have a company for you to manage."
The little cousin watched as her uncle wanted to save face, but in the end he forced himself to twist his angry face and spoke seriously.
"——Well, the key point is not the company, but that we can get along as brothers. It's nothing."
Ms. Ye on the side was still sticking to her principles and saying nothing. Looking at her husband like this, she just glanced at him with a hint of sadness on her face.
The handsome young man seemed to be very satisfied with the situation. He nodded and his frown finally relaxed. Then he patted Song Yun on the back and whispered a few words to him. Then he shifted his gaze to Shi Xuanzhu, who had been sitting in his seat without saying a word.
"Okay, your problems are solved. Now it's your problem, Goff."
Looking at the handsome young man's vicious eyes, Shi Xuanzhu immediately came up with the words he had prepared before.
"I'm sorry, brother. I really didn't expect Song Yun and my father-in-law and mother-in-law to have such a quarrel. I really wanted to have an ordinary family dinner with him to make peace, but maybe I was too hasty."
As Shi Xuanzhu spoke, his face showed an expression of sincere admission of fault, and with his square face, it really looked like he knew he was wrong.
But unfortunately, this time, not only Ye Wangxing, but even Song Yun turned her head away and didn't want to look at him.
My little cousin quickly posted what had just happened to the group.
"...It seems that my eldest cousin is really hurt this time. He hasn't said a word to my brother-in-law since the beginning. He used to play the role of peacemaker at home."
After seeing the follow-up post by Wang Qi, Feng Chuan slapped his thigh and felt that his breast nodules were unblocked. He also quickly said what he saw after seeing Wang Qi.
"It's better to be heartbroken now than to be financially hurt later, right?"
There was a row of people who agreed, and my little cousin also looked up at the current situation after sending an expression of approval.
However, the situation has now become a stalemate. Shi Xuanzhu sincerely admitted his mistake and even started writing a short essay on the spot, which made Song Yun seem a little unreasonable, at least in the eyes of Song's father and Ye's mother.
But just when they were about to speak up for their good son-in-law, the situation changed.
"Wangxing, what happened? Why haven't you come back for so long?"
Along with this elegant voice, a figure appeared in front of them.
Blonde hair, blue eyes, and a superior face that looks like a model - isn't this the suitor who was standing at the door that day and was quite familiar to Ye Wangxing?
This man is quite rich. Song's father immediately stood up straight and even Ye's mother subconsciously tidied up her scattered hair.
Shi Xuanzhu even restrained the pitiful expression on his face.
But the blond man just glanced into the box, and his affectionate blue eyes kept staring at Ye Wangxing.
"This is……?"
The handsome young man also introduced directly.
"My father, my mother, and my brother-in-law." The young man introduced them clearly and crisply, and he even waved his hands in the air a few times as if perfunctorily.
"This is my brother. He is very capable and treats me very well."
"That girl is my cousin. She is very cute and kind."
Only when he introduced his brother and little cousin did his tone soften.
Song Yun was fine, but her little cousin was almost steamed to death. She lowered her head to play with her phone in embarrassment - and then started to scream like crazy in the group, swinging on the swing.
Song Yun didn't know how many people his little cousin had scared in the group. He just looked at the man in front of him and shook hands with him in a friendly manner.
——Then he heard his younger brother tell all the family scandals without any reservation.
And it all started because the blond man asked, what happened to you just now.
"... Anyway, that's how it is."
The handsome young man said this, and the blond man stood there for a long time as if he had heard such a thing for the first time before he came to his senses - and then he immediately looked at the young man next to him.
"My dear, it must be very hard for you to live in such a family..."
The blond man's eyes showed distress.
"...They don't love you at all, but they use love to morally blackmail you, because they know that you will give them money out of filial piety so that they can support you in your old age. This is horrible."
The blond man spoke very gently, which made Song Yun's eyes red.
"You don't deserve this, and you deserve all the good things in the world - like a happy family."
Just as the little cousin was listening to the blond man's declaration with a moved look on her face, she heard her cousin say with a cold expression.
"Okay, stop your talk. I won't go back to the country with you. At least I can handle these people in the country with one hand. They are completely different from evil wolves like you."
Little cousin: …? ? ? ?
But apparently his second cousin was right, because these words made the blond man look pitiful.
This expression made Song Yun feel somewhat familiar. After seeing Shi Xuanzhu standing beside him, he finally realized why he felt so familiar.
Could it be that...
Song Yun didn't dare to think any further. He lowered his head like an ostrich and didn't dare to look at Shi Xuanzhu, letting Ye Wangxing arrange his next tasks.
Of course, Ye Wangxing would also ask Song Yun for her opinion, and Song Yun nodded in response. After all, he was just asked not to go home and the blond man would arrange for bodyguards to send him home to get some daily necessities and pick up Aunt Li at the same time.
It was not until he got into the car and saw a man sitting next to him that he realized something was wrong.
Song Yun's pupils trembled as she looked at the handsome bodyguard beside her who had broad shoulders, long legs and a serious face. She opened and closed her mouth for a long time but no sound came out.
At the same time, the little cousin next to her, with a dazed look on her face, asked for the bodyguard's consent and sent a photo of herself and the handsome bodyguard's faces to the group.
"Everyone, I can no longer handle the sugar-coated bullets from that golden-haired gentleman!"
