Lin Qingxiang nodded and said, "Yes, at least half of the entire village will have to invest, and many people from the neighboring village also know about it."
The more Xiao Jinlin listened, the more he felt it was unreliable, and he pondered, "Is there a leader?"
"Really!" Lin Qingxiang patted his thigh and looked at Chen Xinyue, "It's your great-aunt. I heard that your cousin is doing it and making good money. She's spreading the word everywhere in the village. Who doesn't want to get rich? Look, everyone has come to ask about it."
Xiao Jinlin then looked at Chen Xinyue.
Chen Xinyue frowned subconsciously, "Why are they here again? It's endless? Does my grandpa know?"
Lin Qingxiang shook his head. "He doesn't like to hear it. His face changed when I mentioned your cousin's family. It's not like I don't have good eyesight. I don't like to talk too much. Besides, we don't think it's illegal or disorderly. Why talk about these things?"
Chen Xinyue shouted for Lin Yi to come in and explained the situation to him.
Lin Yi's face turned black, and he cursed loudly on the spot, "Lin Qingxiang, you dare to believe anything related to Li Lian's family? Did you get kicked in the head by a donkey?"
"Hey! Just talk, why are you cursing?" Lin Qingxiang grumbled aggrievedly, gesticulating, "Well, it's not just Jianqiang who's doing this, there are others! One of them is the son of the village party secretary of the next door village."
"The son of the village party secretary is involved?" Lin Yi's face changed slightly, realizing that this matter was not simple. He immediately called Chen Wenjun and asked him to help investigate the so-called money-making business mentioned by Lin Qingxiang.
Because of this incident, this New Year is not so festive.
In the afternoon, Chen Wenjun and a few others came back. Everyone tacitly agreed not to mention these bad things. Apart from playing and making noises, they helped the adults cook and set the table.
With the addition of Xiao Jinlin this year, the reunion dinner is even more lively.
During this time, Chen Wenjun kept pouring wine for Xiao Jinlin.
Xiao Jinlin also accepted everyone who came, which made Chen Xinyue frightened, fearing that this guy would tell Chen Xinyue about her attendance at the Xiao family's family dinner while drinking.
Fortunately, Xiao Jinlin kept his mouth shut and Chen Wenjun also knew his limits.
The meal lasted until after eight o'clock.
When the first firework bloomed over Nanxi River, Chen Xinyue pulled Xiao Jinlin up and said, "Let's go! Boss, let me show you the New Year atmosphere here."
Xiao Jinlin was a little tipsy and let Chen Xinyue drag him into the yard.
As the river breeze blew, he felt even more dizzy.
The fireworks in the sky bloomed one after another, as if turning into a meteor shower.
The world was spinning.
Xiao Jinlin subconsciously leaned towards Chen Xinyue beside him, hugged her, and lost consciousness.
Chen Xinyue staggered and almost fell. She found that Xiao Jinlin was drunk, so she shouted for help.
But the sound of fireworks was so loud that the people in the house couldn't hear it at all.
Helplessly, she could only grit her teeth and drag Xiao Jinlin to the gate, calling Chen Ruiyu and Chen Ruiming to help.
The three of them worked together and finally got Xiao Jinlin back to the room.
Chen Ruiyu frowned, "This alcohol tolerance is not good!"
Chen Xinyue felt a throbbing pain on her forehead, and held her head with her hand, "Brother, this is the president of our company, the noble son. He drinks for wine tasting and socializing, and he is not on the same level as Dad. Dad is really something! How can he get him drunk on New Year's Day?"
Chen Wenjun is a member of the Tanka tribe. Tanka people live on boats for a long time and have no entertainment hobbies. Most of the men like to drink a little wine, and they usually drink white wine. The drinking capacity they have trained since childhood is beyond the reach of ordinary people.
Chen Xinyue couldn't figure it out so she simply stopped thinking about it.
After covering Xiao Jinlin with the quilt, he went downstairs with his brothers.
As soon as I got downstairs, I received a call from Xue Lingxue.
"Xinyue, Happy New Year, I love you!" Xue Lingxue's joyful voice came from the microphone.
Chen Xinyue raised her lips unconsciously, "Happy New Year, my good sister! I heard that you went to Hong Kong City for an inspection. What were the results?"
"I plan to stay in Hong Kong."
Chen Xinyue glanced at Chen Ruiyu and was not surprised at all by this answer.
"Are you going to study or work?"
Xue Lingxue was silent for a moment, then lowered her voice and said, "I signed with an entertainment company and plan to act."
"Ahem." Chen Xinyue was stunned by the shock. "What did you say?"
Xue Lingxue smiled bitterly. "It's incredible, isn't it? I also think this decision is ridiculous, but I've been learning piano, dance, etiquette and the like since I was a kid. I can't do anything else. If I become a star, maybe I can use my expertise to the fullest. Don't you think so?"
"Then will your parents agree?" Chen Xinyue was a little nervous. She knew the personalities of Xue's father and mother. How could people who valued face and family background so much allow their daughter to be a star?
"What if they don't agree? I have already sacrificed for the Xue family, but I just failed to fulfill their wishes. While they still feel guilty, I should fight for myself at this time. If I delay any longer, the same ending will be waiting for me, and then all the grievances I have suffered before will be in vain!" Xue Lingxue said.
When Chen Xinyue heard her indifferent tone, she knew that the girl had made up her mind and would not change it.
"Well, now that you've made up your mind, I wish you to become a big star!"
"Okay! I'll definitely take you flying when I become a big star!"
The two chatted and laughed for a while before hanging up the phone.
Chen Xinyue looked at Chen Ruiyu, "Brother, did you know Lingxue's decision a long time ago?"
Chen Ruiyu said "hmm" softly, "Everyone has their own dreams and goals. As a friend, I can only bless and support them. I think this is her business, and it would be more appropriate for her to talk to you herself."
It’s so clear!
Chen Xinyue couldn't help but feel sad for her best friend. It seemed that the goddess had feelings for the King but not for him. She didn't know if Xue Lingxue's decision was right!
Seeing that his brother and sister were silent, Chen Ruiming, who was standing by, said weakly, "Um. Happy New Year, brother and sister!"
He tried his best to smile more brightly and festively, and put the red envelope close to his chest.
He thought Chen Ruiyu and Chen Xinyue would understand him, but the brother and sister just said "Happy New Year" to him and ignored him.
Chen Ruiming wanted to cry, "Brother, sister! Can you support your brother?"
Chen Xinyue resisted the urge to burst out laughing and turned to look at him, "We are still receiving red envelopes just like you! How dare you ask us for red envelopes!"
Chen Ruiming instantly wilted.
Seeing how pitiful he was, Chen Xinyue softened her heart and stuffed the red envelope she had prepared in advance into his pocket, "Take it! Who are you showing this to?"
Chen Ruiming's eyes lit up, and he jumped three feet high with excitement, "Sister! You are really my sister, I love you so much!"
Chen Ruiyu teased: "What? If I don't give you a red envelope, I'm not your real brother?"
"No, no, Big Brother will always be my Big Brother!"
No matter how many holes there are, flattery will never wear out.
Chen Ruiyu couldn't stand it anymore and gave a pack as well.
Chen Ruiming, who received two heavy red envelopes, proudly began to show off to his parents and grandfather. (End of this chapter)
