"I don't expect her to care about Momo that much and keep an eye on him all the time, but this is worse than treating a stranger who has no blood relationship with him. It's really chilling." Xu Mingzhen's hands were shaking with anger.
Tan Wenci had no choice but to say, "Things like closeness don't really have anything to do with blood relationship. Look, Zhiqian and Momo aren't even related yet, yet he's so kind to her."
"The two elders of the Wei family and the head and wife of the Wei family also like Mo Mo and treat her as their own junior, but the rest of the Wei family treats Mo Mo indifferently. For example, your best friend, Li Xiangrong, and her husband, although Li Xiangrong is very enthusiastic about Mo Mo, she doesn't seem to be as sincere as the two elders and the head and wife of the Wei family, who are sincere and selfless from the inside out."
"This is the fate between people, which cannot be explained by blood relationship." Tan Wenci held Xu Mingzhen's hand, "Let's not care about blood relationship. If it's worthwhile to get along, let's get along seriously. If it's not worthwhile, let's not care about them."
"Yes." Xu Mingzhen nodded.
"Today is a happy day. Don't let these things ruin your mood." Tan Wenci advised her, "Especially if it's someone you don't like, because it's not worth it to make yourself unhappy because of someone you don't like."
Xu Mingzhen had already adjusted his mood while talking about literature, so he smiled and nodded, "I don't want to think about it anymore."
"Anyway, we won't let them take advantage of us in the future," Xu Mingzhen said again.
Tan Wenci smiled, knowing that Xu Mingzhen's temper came and went quickly.
I can adjust it very well by myself.
*
Three cars arrived at the old house one after another.
The car had not stopped yet and was approaching the door of the old house. It slowed down to find a place to park and drove slowly.
I saw many familiar faces on the road.
Tan Wenci and Xu Mingzhen could hardly recognize each other.
But Wei Zhiqian and Tan Mo recognized him at a glance.
They are all people who work in the old house.
Housekeeper Zhu, gardener Xiao Liu, and several people in charge of the sanitation of the old house's courtyard also came out.
Butler Zhu was standing at the gate of the old house, seemingly distributing something.
Every time Xiao Liu and his friends took something away, they would come back empty-handed and take some more.
Tan Mo said in surprise: "Grandpa Zhu, what are they doing?"
So lively.
"Just ask and you'll know." Wei Zhiqian parked the car and got out with Tan Mo.
Tan Wenci and his wife and the three brothers of the Tan family also got out of the car one after another.
Tan Mo ran straight to Butler Zhu.
Butler Zhu really liked Tan Mo's lively and cheerful look, like a bird.
After Tan Mo stood firmly, Butler Zhu smiled lovingly and said, "Be careful not to fall."
Tan Mo smiled and greeted Xiao Liu who had just returned, "Brother Xiao Liu."
Gardener Xiao Liu's smile was so bright and white that it was almost blinding in the sunlight. "Momo, congratulations on winning first place in the individual all-around award in the math competition! That's amazing!"
Tan Mo thanked him with a smile, and saw that Butler Zhu gave Xiao Liu another thick stack of red envelopes.
Tan Mo asked curiously, "Grandpa Zhu, who are you giving the red envelope to?"
"Didn't you win first place in the math competition? And you even won first place in the most difficult individual all-around award. Not only did you get gold medals in five subjects, but you also got full marks in five subjects." Butler Zhu spoke very loudly at this time.
Tan Mo: “…”
Why is Butler Zhu shouting so loudly?
Did he want to tell passers-by?
However, the old house is also a very high-end villa residential area.
Even more upscale than Tan’s.
Because the courtyards of the villas here are very large.
The community also has its own golf course.
This shows how large the area of the community is.
In a place like City B where every inch of land is valuable and high-rise buildings are everywhere, it can be said to be a luxury to have such a community with a large area and a sparse population.
Because the villas all have very spacious courtyards, with swimming pools and gardens at the back.
Therefore, there are not many villas in the community, and the distance between villas is quite far.
The privacy between residents is fully protected.
But this also means that there are very few people traveling on the roads in the community.
There are usually few people on the road in front of my house.
Butler Zhu was speaking loudly at this moment, but no one else could hear him.
But Butler Zhu felt that no matter whether there were people around or not, he would just shout out loudly.
What if someone happens to pass by?
It is better to be prepared.
"As soon as my parents saw the results, they immediately asked me to go to the bank to exchange some cash." Now there are fewer and fewer opportunities to use cash.
Just bring your cell phone with you when you go out.
No need for change and no need to carry a wallet, it's so convenient.
But when I need cash, there is hardly any money at home.
"I went to the bank and exchanged it for a brand new hundred-yuan bill. It has a prosperous meaning, so I wrapped it in a red envelope, which looks festive." Butler Zhu said with a smile.
"You achieved unprecedented results in such a difficult competition, so naturally you have to give red envelopes to your neighbors to celebrate together." Butler Zhu explained with a smile.
Tan Mo then realized that Xiao Liu and the others each took a thick stack of red envelopes and went to distribute money everywhere.
"This is too expensive." Tan Mo blushed, feeling embarrassed.
"What's the big deal?" Butler Zhu said as he invited everyone in. "The elders said that our Momo is so outstanding that we must let everyone know. Usually, when the neighbors have happy events, they give out red envelopes to show off. But no family's happy event can compare to Momo's this time."
"Let's not talk about happy events like marriages; they only happen once. Of course, it's possible for them to happen twice or three times, but they're definitely not as joyous as the first time. There are also children in my family who excel in their studies, get good grades on exams, and get into good schools. But how can those exams compare to this math competition? The two elders must shock them."
The two old men started showing off to no end.
"This morning, we started by sending red envelopes door to door. Later at noon, the elders had Xiao Liu and his friends hang gongs and drums around their bodies, and set up a long gift table on both sides of the road outside the community. They were all small, elegant, and practical gifts, not expensive at all. Everyone passing by got a share."
"In addition, we have set up charity lunches on some of the busier roads. It is convenient for sanitation workers and others to take them for free." Butler Zhu introduced to everyone as he walked.
Xu Mingzhen's eyes were sore.
The two elders made such a big move just to talk about ink.
But her family ignored Tan Mo.
The more the two elders tried to talk to Tan Mo, the more unbearable her family seemed.
Tan Wenci interrupted Xu Mingzhen's words and said softly, "We can't let Momo get all the benefits. There are gains and losses."
Xu Mingzhen sniffed and nodded, "That's right."
"This...this is too expensive." Tan Mo said.
