Chapter 85
When the little 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, whom they had previously regarded as an honor.
Even the relatives in the family group couldn't stand it anymore and hurried 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 if he's really sad or just throwing a tantrum."
My uncle said this bluntly in the family group.
"He's just pretentious. Like his brother, he takes after their mother."
My aunt was unhappy about this and she 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 didn’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 didn't get involved in the end and just watched them scolding each other.
At this time, my 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 helping his second cousin with some work. Although it was just some chores, it would be impossible without someone close watching over him.
This made the younger cousin feel relieved. As long as the older cousin was fine, it would be fine. She could also avoid her aunt and uncle.
After hearing the news about her aunt and uncle from her, her 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.
However, after receiving the red envelope and looking at the four-digit amount inside, the little cousin suddenly felt a little hot. She had thought that her 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 be caught, she would have ended up like the clerk next door who was fired for playing with her cell phone.
God knows that the clerk just sent a few messages home, isn't that 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 recently.
This was also the reason why she didn't refuse her brother-in-law's invitation. First, they were family after all. He invited her to dinner with her cousin. Maybe he wanted to reconcile 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 his work prevented her from coming over, so he nodded and agreed to come under the temptation of delicious food.
But when the little cousin sat down at the table, she found that although she came to be 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 purely an attempt to put pressure on him!
My cousin felt her blood pressure rise just thinking about it. If her partner didn't even say hello to her in the future and used this kind of moral kidnapping and filial piety pressure to put pressure on her, she would really just flip the table and leave.
But now is not the time to think about what I will do. The key point is what my cousin will do.
So before her cousin came, the little cousin had been sending messages to her girlfriends group.
They were close friends and childhood friends, having been together since childhood. The older cousin had moved to the capital, and the others were also living far apart, but their parents still kept in touch. So they were somewhat aware of the affairs of her two cousins.
Before the little cousin sent the message, her best friends were still chatting about her second cousin.
Their conversation was rather superficial, and my cousin didn't have a proper chat with her girlfriends about the matter because of her recent idiotic boss.
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 out! 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'm talking about your aunt who's a special teacher and treats everyone like students, and your uncle who's timid at the factory but acts like a king at home? Oh 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 he invited me over for dinner to get my cousin to reconcile with him. After all, they had a fight a while ago, and that's why I agreed. But who would have thought that he wasn't here to reconcile with my cousin at all, he was purely here 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 is marrying is from a very rich family, and your aunt and uncle are flattering 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 also began to feel sympathy for the younger cousin.
"The one who's suffering the most right now is Qiqi! She originally came here to eat for free, but now she's helping to put pressure on her cousin. How miserable will it be if her eldest cousin holds a grudge against her? That eldest cousin was quite nice to Qiqi and even gave her a red envelope a while 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 their families also worked in the same company. Although they later separated to seek development, the two families did not lose contact. Naturally, she also 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 really understands me. Everyone, help me! My cousin has come in. He was smiling originally, but now his face is expressionless when he sees his parents! Why is the braised beef brisket only coming up now? I haven't even picked up a chopstick yet. Now I don't even dare to reach out. I'm really scared that they will start fighting and overturn the table. My braised beef brisket, woooo."
Feng Chuan: ...
"Why don't you just live with that braised beef brisket for the rest of your life? A fight is about to break out, and you're still thinking about that 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 matter. 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 in the group in real time.
"My brother actually didn't say anything. He just held it in and sat down. And his opening remarks were surprisingly normal."
"Let's start eating, let's start eating. There's nothing wrong with it. My brother-in-law even picked up some food for my eldest cousin - the braised beef brisket is really delicious."
"Oh wow, my aunt suddenly started scolding my cousin. Why can't he even do such a simple thing? He actually asked my cousin's husband to pick up food for him! What does this have to do with you if it's not a young couple's hobby?"
"My uncle has also joined in. My cousin-in-law didn't say anything and even offered some words of advice. But isn't he just adding fuel to the fire? I have a feeling he's got a lot of bad intentions."
Naturally, my childhood friends were also enjoying the show 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, I'm wondering how delicious the braised beef brisket is. You greedy girl has been thinking about it all day."
"Tsk tsk tsk, your aunt and uncle are indeed worthy of our respect. They really didn't disappoint us. I'm really starting to doubt whether your two cousins are your aunt's biological children."
The discussion in the girlfriends group was in full swing, and the messages Wang Qi sent to the group were more and more exciting.
"It's not what they said, is it really something a person could say? Your cousin has only been out there without a career for a month, right? Doesn't he have a nanny at home? What kind of train of thought does your aunt have to ask her son why he isn't at home serving his partner?"
"...You even want your second brother to help your eldest brother-in-law make money, leaving your eldest cousin at home??? Is this really a biological child?"
"Maybe it's 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. And 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 care of these two old men."
"...I can't take it anymore. I can't bear it 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 took on a big order, and I was already busy. Then I had this high blood pressure thing happen. I feel like my anxiety is manifesting in my body."
Feng Chuan felt dizzy and wondered if this was really something his biological parents could do.
He accused his child of being lazy, greedy, and not caring about the family in front of his child's partner, and even suffocated people in the mud, thinking 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, the two of them were jumping up and down, as if Song Yun had missed a great opportunity.
Obviously, all of this is based on personal wishes, but it is made to seem 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 took advantage of the situation behind their backs.
Even though Wang Qi couldn't help but refute a few words, the domineering attitude of his aunt and uncle, coupled with their status as outsiders, made Wang Qi very angry.
Many 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 announced the on-site intelligence.
"My second cousin suddenly appeared from nowhere and pointed at my aunt and uncle's noses and yelled at them, 'Are they 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'm your biological father. I'm scolding you for your own good. Besides, what work ability does Song Yun have? He's been a househusband at home for seven 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 is very capable at work, and I am willing to support him, rather than my parents who stopped supporting me after I turned 18, forcing me to work part-time for four years of college."
The handsome young man said directly without even blinking.
"And the way you're throwing a tantrum now, with no job to offer and no advantage to take, 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'm not your student, and I don't need to follow your will in my life. In fact, you know exactly what kind of life your will has led you to."
"—Don't let my brother inherit your miserable life."
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'm 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. This was the moral high ground that parents were best at using, and it was also the most difficult moral high ground to overturn.
However, just when the little cousin was about to send a message to the group for help, she heard her cousin speaking calmly and without being confused at all.
"I'll yell at you now but later I'll have a company for you to run."
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 isn't the company. The main thing is that we, father and son, can get along just like brothers. It's nothing."
On the other hand, Ms. Ye was still sticking to her principles and said 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 turned his attention 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 parents-in-law to get into such a mess. I originally wanted to have a simple family dinner with him to make peace, but maybe I was too hasty."
As Shi Xuanzhu spoke, he showed an expression of sincere admission of guilt, and with his square face, he really looked like he knew he was wrong.
But unfortunately, this time it was not just Ye Wangxing, 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 my eldest cousin is really hurt this time. He hasn't said a word to my brother-in-law since the beginning. Before this, he always played the role of peacemaker in the family."
After Feng Chuan saw the follow-up post by Wang Qi, he slapped his thigh and felt that his breast nodules were unblocked. After seeing what Wang Qi said, he quickly said it.
"It's better to be heartbroken now than to be broke 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 put away the pitiful look 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, my brother-in-law." The young man introduced them clearly and concisely, even his hands seemed to be waving in the air perfunctorily a few times.
"This is my brother. He's very capable and treats me very well."
"That girl is my cousin, a very cute and kind girl."
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 mobile phone in embarrassment - and then started to scream like crazy in the group, "Mala, 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..."
There was a look of distress in the blond man's eyes.
"...They don't love you at all, but they use love to morally blackmail you because they know you'll give them money out of filial piety and support them in their old age. This is horrible."
The blond man spoke very gently, which made Song Yun's eyes red.
"You don't deserve this. 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 rhetoric. I'm not going back abroad with you. At least I can handle these people back home single-handedly. They're completely different from a wolf like you."
Little cousin: …???
But it was obvious that 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 beside him, he realized why he felt so familiar.
Could it be...
Song Yun didn't dare to think further. He lowered his head like an ostrich and didn't dare to look at Shi Xuanzhu, letting Ye Wangxing arrange his next steps.
Of course, Ye Wangxing would also ask Song Yun for her opinion, and Song Yun nodded to all of them. 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 wasn't until he got in 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 with 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 asked for the bodyguard's consent with a dazed look on her face, and sent a photo of herself and the handsome bodyguard's face to the group.
"Everyone, I can't stand the sugar-coated bullets from that golden-haired gentleman any more!"
