"Alright, alright, Fourth Sister, you're making such a righteous statement. If I don't take you, wouldn't I seem too heartless?"
"Yay! Hehe, that's more like it, that's my good little brother. Let's go find our older sister and the others."
"You've been touring for so long!"
"Yeah, big sister, you know our house is big, so it's normal for the tour to take a little longer, isn't it?"
"Alright, alright, let's not delay and go pay our respects for the New Year."
"Let's go pay New Year's visits!"
The group first arrived at the door of Su Muqing and the others' second uncle's house.
"Second Uncle, Happy New Year!"
"You've arrived? Come in quickly."
"Second Aunt, isn't Second Uncle home?"
“I’m at home, lying in the yard sunbathing. You guys go ahead.”
"Second Aunt, Happy New Year!"
"Okay, Happy New Year to everyone. This must be Aunt Li's son."
"Yes, Second Aunt, his name is Wang Xinghe."
"Happy New Year, Second Aunt."
Su Muqing's second aunt nodded and left.
"Let's go in."
"Second Uncle, we've come to wish you a Happy New Year."
Upon hearing Su Zhilan's voice, Su Zhengfeng sat up from the recliner.
"Oh, it's Mu Qing. You've arrived. Please have a seat."
"Second Uncle, how have you been feeling lately?"
"Isn't this great? I can just drink tea and bask in the sun every day. I'm just a leisurely person."
"Second Uncle really has a refined taste."
“I’m practically halfway to the grave, so I don’t ask for much anymore. I just need food and drink. This must be the child my brother mentioned, the one from my sister-in-law’s family.”
"Hello, Second Uncle, Happy New Year."
"Good, he's quite handsome. Ah Qing, go and get the red envelope."
After accepting the red envelopes, Su Zhilan and Su Muqing exchanged a few more words with Su Zhengfeng before leaving with Wang Xinghe and the others.
Even the usually lively and talkative Su Ke'er was silent and quiet in the chair.
“After all these years, Second Uncle’s ambitions are still quite large,” Su Zhilan said as they left Su Zhengfeng’s house.
“From my second uncle’s perspective, I can understand him. After all, whoever controls the Su Group owns 50% of the shares, hundreds of billions of assets, and countless powers. Are you willing to accept that?” Su Muqing asked in return.
"I'm not reconciled, I'm definitely not reconciled, but what my second uncle said made me feel really uncomfortable. I don't like coming back at all." Su Ke'er finally spoke after holding her mouth for a long time.
"Alright, Ke'er, none of us like coming back. We only come back once a year anyway. Let's go to Uncle's house."
"Sigh, we still have to go to Uncle's house." Su Ke'er pouted, looking unhappy.
"Fourth Sister, it's the New Year, cheer up."
"I was happy at first, but seeing them made me unhappy."
When the group arrived at Su Zhengtao's house, they saw Su Zhengtao sitting in the yard with a cigar in his mouth, legs crossed, looking at his phone.
My third aunt was doing her nails next to me.
"Third Aunt, Third Uncle, we've come to wish you a Happy New Year."
"Aren't these the eldest son's children? You know you're back? And you brought a boy with you. This is your stepmother's child. He's not related to us by blood. What are you doing bringing an outsider here?"
"Third Uncle, I don't want to take action," Su Xuanyu said directly.
"Xuan Yu, look at you! You're actually fighting with your own uncle for an outsider! Are you planning to hand over the Su Group to this kid in a few days? What if he manages to swindle the Su Group away and you end up ruining the Su family's legacy!"
"Third Uncle, if you continue to speak so rudely, I think there's no need to pay New Year's respects this year."
"Mu Qing, at the company, I should call you President Su, right? President Su, it's such an honor for you to come and wish me a Happy New Year. It's a pity that no matter how capable you are, you're still just a woman. It's truly a blessing from heaven that your family has four daughters and no sons."
As soon as Su Zhengtao finished speaking, a loud crack was heard, and a tree as thick as a bowl next to them was snapped in two by Su Xuanyu's lazy kick.
"Third Uncle, don't worry. Even if we give the Su Group away, it will definitely not be in your hands. After the New Year, you don't need to go to the company. Just wait for our notification at home."
"You dare! Su Muqing, I just called you President Su, do you really think you're my boss? I'm your third uncle! I'm your father's brother!"
"Then have my dad tell me that I can't and don't want to interfere in your affairs. If you don't want the 5% stake, I can take it back anytime. Let's go!"
After saying that, Su Muqing led Wang Xinghe and the others away.
"How awful! Absolutely awful! Is Grandpa getting old and his genes are failing? How could he have given birth to such an ungrateful wretch as Uncle San?"
"Ke'er, how can you talk like that? That's your grandfather." Su Zhilan tapped Su Ke'er on the head.
"Oh dear, I'm just stating the facts, Xinghe, are you alright?"
"I'm fine, Fourth Sister."
"Xinghe, don't take it to heart. That's just the kind of person Third Uncle is. Because of the issue of dividing the family property back then, he hates every single one of our family members equally."
"Yes, I know, big sister. I didn't take it to heart. This little bit of slander is nothing."
"Hey, Xuan Yu, where are you going?"
Seeing Su Xuanyu clench her fists and turn her head away, Su Zhilan quickly pulled Su Xuanyu back.
"Don't stop me, I'm going to break Su Zhengtao's arm!"
"Okay, don't go."
It was clear that Su Zhilan couldn't stop Su Xuanyu.
Wang Xinghe also hurriedly went to pull Su Xuanyu away.
"Third sister, let's go. We still need to pay our respects for the New Year. Let's not waste any more time."
Su Xuanyu stopped what she was doing.
"Alright, Xuan Yu, we know you're angry, and we're all angry too. He will pay the price."
After that, Su Muqing led them to visit some neighbors and some members of the Su family's collateral branches to offer New Year's greetings. Perhaps out of fear of the Su family's influence, these people were polite on the surface and received plenty of red envelopes.
On the way back, Su Ke'er sat in the car counting red envelopes.
"One hundred, two hundred, three hundred..."
"A little over 30,000 in total, not bad."
"Su Xuanyu took out all the red envelopes. Ke'er, you and Xinghe can share them. Consider it my New Year's money for you."
"Hehe, Third Sister, that's so nice of you, you're giving us lucky money too."
"Xinghe, Ke'er, I've also transferred money to you via mobile phone red envelopes, as New Year's money for you."
Su Muqing didn't say anything, but while waiting for the traffic light to change, she sent a red envelope to both Su Ke'er and Wang Xinghe.
"Big sister, second sister, third sister, you are all so kind, you even gave us lucky money this year."
"You should say that you're lucky to have Xinghe this year. You two are the youngest in our family and you're both still in school."
