The uncle, aunt, and their family had a very lively and polite gathering. Laughter could be heard from time to time in the living room. The sofa was packed with people, and many more stools were brought out.
My uncle opened a shop in the city. Life there is better than in the village, but it's still much worse than Yu Tian's family. I heard that his daughter got married this year, and her husband is quite a figure.
As for the second aunt, her husband works in a state-owned enterprise and is a section chief. He always considers himself the most important person in the family. This family is not simple, except for Lu Wancai, who stays in the village and takes care of Lu Bingwen.
When Jiang Xiaoyan's parents married her off to Lu Feng, their consideration of family background was naturally taken into account. What she didn't expect was that these relatives all looked down on Lu Wancai for being poor and rarely had any contact with him.
After catching up for a while, the eldest uncle turned his attention to Lu Feng and said, "I heard Lu Feng has made a lot of money now?"
“Wanfu, we were just talking about this. Lu Feng said he works at Jiamei Food Factory, and even the big boss has to listen to him. It’s a good thing for young people to have good career prospects, but they must not be frivolous or impetuous.” Yu Tian stared at Lu Feng and lectured him.
“Look at you, child, you’re making such a fuss over nothing. You should listen to your uncle about this; he’s knowledgeable. But you can also ask your brother-in-law. Your sister Yao Yao got married, and I think it was just so-so. Lu Feng didn’t go, right?” the uncle asked.
"Uh... I'm busy, I didn't go!" Lu Feng quickly followed up, "Love is the most important thing, Yao Yao's happiness comes first, money can be earned slowly!"
"You know, your sister Yaoyao is very beautiful, and the other man is quite handsome, tall and big, but he's busy with work and is three years older than your sister Yaoyao. I'm really not satisfied with him." The uncle looked regretful.
"Uncle, things have already been settled. As long as you're happy, money isn't really important!" Lu Feng advised.
Lu Feng noticed something: the house seemed to have quieted down, and no one was trying to persuade his uncle.
"He's not exactly poor; he's a chairman, which is a higher position than a general manager. Of course, someone as insignificant as you would never have met such a big shot!"
Lu Feng now understood why no one in the house was trying to persuade them; this family was just like that.
"He's handsome and the chairman of the board, what are you not satisfied with?" Lu Feng asked.
"What I'm most dissatisfied with is this gold necklace they bought for me!" Uncle said with a big smile, pulling a gold chain from his neck. "It's so heavy, it must weigh at least eight ounces. They said it wasn't worth much, just a small gift. Take a look, Lao Yu."
Lu Feng felt his scalp tingle from his uncle's display of humility. In this family, not speaking was considered the lowest level of discretion, and there was no need to deliberately hide anything.
Looking at her older brother's expression, Lu Jinyue understood that the Lu family's bragging contest had begun.
"Wanfu, your chain is so thick, it's so tacky!" Yu Tian said.
"I also think it's not very good-looking, but you're forced to buy it; you can't refuse!"
Seeing that these people were changing the subject, Lu Feng slowly took a step back. He didn't want to get involved in this kind of thing. They liked to brag, so he let them brag.
However, Lu Feng could clearly see that Lu Wancai was unconvinced. He took a small step forward, wanting to interject, but Lu Feng quickly pulled him back and said, "Dad, it's noon, time to arrange lunch!"
"Let's go to the restaurant first. We'll have lunch at Jihao Hotel today and tomorrow. We've booked the best dishes. It won't cost much. The owner of Jihao Hotel is on good terms with Lu Feng and insisted on giving me a discount. I said it's not appropriate for your own business, but he still gave me a 30% discount!" Lu Wancai stepped forward and helped Lu Bingwen up, saying, "Come on, let's go eat!"
As they went downstairs, Lu Feng's second aunt walked beside him and asked, "You work at Jiamei Food Factory, how do you know the owner of Jihao Restaurant in our county?"
"Huh?" Lu Feng's eyes darted around as he said, "I once attended a dance party, and it was held at his venue."
"How much do you earn in a year? Your dad said eight million a year is easy. Your second aunt's husband's newly built factory only cost less than one million, and it's a very big factory!"
"I don't earn much money. I mainly rely on partnering with others to steal raw materials from the factory. Now the regulations are strict, and several people were arrested last year. It's not easy to do this job!" Lu Feng was afraid that his second aunt's family would ask him to arrange something.
The other person nodded as if they understood and left.
After going downstairs, there were several cars parked downstairs. Next to Lu Feng's Santana was an imported Crown. Yu Rongguang walked over, opened the car door, glanced at Lu Feng, and said, "You're driving a Santana?"
“The Santana is also very expensive. This car costs 260,000 yuan in total. Of course, it belongs to the factory, not mine,” Lu Feng explained.
"Do you know how much this car costs?" Yu Rongguang patted the roof of the car with his hand, his face showing an indescribable arrogance.
Lu Feng really didn't want to guess. Did they really have to compare these things?
“Lu Feng, you’re betting on the best-case scenario. This car is fully imported, not yours. Yours is domestically made!” Yu Tian said as he walked over.
"Four or five hundred thousand, I guess!" Lu Feng casually said a number.
"You guessed right. You'll have a year of incredible luck and barely make enough for a car. Let me tell you, they say poor people who suddenly become rich are arrogant and domineering. Don't be too cocky. People are divided into different levels, and you're at this level right now!" Yu Tian reached out and patted the hood of the Santana, saying, "Work hard."
Lu Feng was speechless after being lectured. He hadn't been arrogant or domineering at all.
Before getting into the car, Yu Rongguang said to Lu Feng, "Lu Feng, we're out now, not at home. There are so many cars coming and going in the city, you might even meet some bosses you know. Don't call me by my name, okay?"
