I was forced to start the second round because I was raised in poverty

Chapter 425 Old Deng is Stubborn
Su Tianyan kept repeating that this car was suitable for Su Cheng and Ye Li's small family, but in reality, it was a test.

He had been silently observing the brat's attitude and reaction.

The brat seems to have tacitly agreed to it.

This made Su Tianyan feel very down, and the last bit of hope in her heart was shattered.

Ugh……

I still didn't buy him a car.

Su Tianyan helped ask the salesperson, "Do you have a car in stock? Can we pick it up today?"

"Yes, yes, we have cars available right now."

"If you're sure you want it, the store can also offer you some discounts and free gifts."

"I'd like to recommend a mortgage plan first. Would you like to take a look?"

Su Cheng nodded: "Okay, sure."

The salesperson took out a form, quickly calculated the relevant costs, and soon handed a completed car purchase form to Su Cheng.

Ye Li subconsciously activated her professional skills and quickly identified the problem.

"Why is the interest rate displayed on your sign outside different from the calculated rate?"

Although Ye Li is not a finance major, these numbers are all basic skills.

The salesperson hesitated for a moment, not expecting the other party to discover the problem on the purchase order so quickly.

90% of customers won't question it; at most, they'll try to negotiate the price, but they're unlikely to directly raise the issue of interest rates.

The salesperson could only sheepishly explain, "Ma'am, the rate displayed outside is the monthly interest rate, but what we calculate here is the annualized interest rate. Please look here..."

The sales pitch attempted to obscure the past.

Ye Li immediately refuted this: "Then your annualized rate spread over each month is also incorrect; the calculation method itself is wrong."

Following that, Ye Li pointed out many more problems.

"Also, I don't want to buy insurance from your store; this type of insurance isn't what we're looking for."

"GPS prices are too high, how could it possibly cost 3000 yuan!"

"I don't want the decoration package either. Those things like window tinting and floor mats cost several thousand yuan, which is too expensive."

"There are also account management fees, margin deposits, etc. Although they are small amounts, they add up to a considerable sum."

"Where are the terms for early repayment? Why aren't they listed? Do I have to pay a penalty for early repayment?"

The salesperson was completely stumped by Ye Li's barrage of questions.

Ok?
know the business?

This woman must be a colleague, or perhaps she used to work as a car salesperson.

How can we figure out their tricks completely?

"Could you please wait a moment while I go to check with the manager? Perhaps my calculation method is indeed inaccurate."

"Okay, then go check it out."

About ten minutes later.

The salesperson returned with a completed purchase order and a purchase contract.

The total price was reduced by more than nine thousand, including the items that Ye Li just pointed out.

"I just spoke with the manager, and it's not necessary to buy insurance consecutively; you only need to buy it from our store for the first year."

"The price of the GPS was incorrectly marked, but it has now been corrected. You only need to pay 500 yuan."

"However, early repayment is not allowed. The manager said that our contract states that if you repay early, you will have to pay a penalty."

"This is the best price we can offer. Please consider it."

GPS positioning and floor mats, those other miscellaneous things, how much do they cost? They dare to list them for thousands of dollars!

If Ye Li wanted to argue, she could actually lower the price a bit more.

However, there's no need to waste words and time on this.

She simply noticed these loopholes out of professional instinct and then pointed them out subconsciously.

Su Tianyan took in everything Ye Li did.

In Su Tianyan's view, all of these things were plus points.

Because Ye Li wasn't just haggling for the sake of haggling; she was keenly aware that her rights had been violated. Her logic in talking to the salesperson was very meticulous, leaving no room for the other party to argue.

After a brief negotiation, Su Cheng and Ye Li decided to sign and make the payment.

"Hey Sister Chestnut, could you transfer that money from last time to my card?"

"Okay." Ye Li took out her phone and checked if she received it.

"Received it. Why is it 50,000? Shouldn't it be 30,000?"

"Hmm, fifty thousand."

Su Cheng didn't say much and transferred the money to the 4S store.

These were all rehearsed by him and Ye Li and performed for Lao Deng.

We need to make sure Lao Deng sees the part where Ye Li pays the money.

Su Tianyan was puzzled, but said nothing.

His anxiety had reached its peak, and his main focus was on whether Su Cheng would buy him a car as well, so he had no time to worry about these details.

Will they just drive the car away later?
Su Tianyan really hoped that Su Cheng would say: Dad, let me show you some cars too. What kind of car do you want to buy?

When is he finally going to replace that old man's car?!
After preparing the temporary license plates and other necessary documents, the three of them got ready to drive the new car back.

but.

Su Cheng and Su Tianyan argued about who should drive.

"Dad, you drive."

"You drive."

Su Cheng gestured, "You come, you come."

Su Tianyan refused: "Why don't you let Xiao Ye drive?"

Ye Li also declined, saying, "I won't drive it. I'm not good at driving such a big vehicle."

"Hey! Then you should drive it even more often, this will be your family's car from now on."

"No, no, no, it's not Uncle."

"This car was bought for you by Xiaocheng and me."

Su Tianyan was completely stunned.

what? !

Bought for him?

Wasn't it supposed to be a new car for their wedding?

Ye Li explained with a smile, "Xiao Cheng and I were afraid you wouldn't want it, so we didn't tell you at first."

"Why buy me this car? I can drive the electric one, which is more fuel-efficient. Even if I drive a lot, the electricity bill is only a few dozen yuan a month."

Su Tianyan displayed a very firm attitude: No no no no no!

I do not want!
"I only need a car to keep me out of the wind and rain, how could I drive this kind of car! I'm not suited to driving this kind of car."

Su Tianyan actually overlooked one problem.

So, even if Su Cheng wants to buy him a car, how should he accept it?
According to his public persona, he can't drive a Volkswagen Tiguan L; he'll basically drive a Wuling Hongguang, or at most a Baojun 730.

This overlooked problem had already been thought of by Su Cheng and Ye Li.

How can I convince Old Deng to accept this Tiguan L?

The answer is not to persuade.

Damn it, I can't convince you at all.

Aside from wasting breath and effort, it achieves nothing.

This is where the inherent conflict lies within the traditional Chinese and traditional old-style climbing techniques.

Even if he likes it very much, he still has to constantly resist it.

This behavior is so damn twisted.

But this is one of the characteristics of the character Su Tianyan.

Su Cheng and Ye Li had already seen through him.

I won't persuade them.

Just leave him the key; he can open it or not, it's up to him.

Su Cheng wouldn't say another word.

"Hey, why did you leave the key with me?"

"If you're not going to open it, we might as well not buy it today!"

“Dad, I don’t need a car yet. It’s more convenient to take a taxi or subway in big cities, and I don’t need to spend extra time looking for a parking space. Otherwise, I would have to rent a parking space for it.”

Parking fees in Shanghai are really expensive.

"This car is for you. We can talk about buying a car later. I'll definitely buy a new car before we get married." "Oh, you don't need to buy one. You can drive this car. We can't each have a car, that would be too extravagant."

In the end, Su Tianyan reluctantly accepted, but still said stubbornly, "I won't drive it either. If you stay at home, I'll do some routine maintenance for you, like washing the car."

His public image cannot be allowed to collapse.

Su Cheng didn't care about that.

No matter what Old Deng says, the key has been left for him.

to be frank.

Su Tianyan was very excited.

The brat really gave him a big surprise.

Did they really get him to accept the car this way?

Knowing he wouldn't want it, he deliberately didn't tell him beforehand, only after submitting the contract and making payment, leaving no room for backing out, did he then tell him?

I feel like that brat really cares about me!

Besides being pleasantly surprised, Su Tianyan also felt a special kind of emotion.

That means Su Cheng finally understood his good intentions and frugality.

The fact that he could do that proves that he is very clear that he is a frugal, hardworking person who only wants to give to his son and family.

Su Tianyan dared not enjoy any aspect of life.

Luxury cars and nice houses are completely irrelevant to him, an ordinary citizen.

Do you feel envious when you see someone driving a nice car on the road?

Of course I'm envious!

But he worked hard for decades, saving every penny to send his son to school, buy him a house, renovate it, and save up for his son's dowry. He dared not eat or use anything for his son's sake.

The brat gave him a car in this way, and he was incredibly touched!

The car was only one part of his emotional experience.

More importantly, the brat finally understood how difficult it was for him to be a father!
There's also the matter of Ye Li transferring money.

Su Tianyan further inquired, "Xiao Ye, you also contributed money, right? That's too embarrassing. It would be really embarrassing if word got out that our family had to ask you to pay for the car."

Ye Li did not respond directly: "Uncle, what's wrong with that? We'll be family from now on!"

“Xiaocheng has been talking to me about buying you a car for the past two days. I’ll contribute whatever I can. This is how we two show our filial piety to you.”

Su Tianyan thoroughly enjoyed Su Cheng and Ye Li's filial piety, but he still stubbornly insisted, "No, no, no, this car is still yours."

The two of them, of course, didn't argue with Old Deng on this topic.

This is a tacit understanding and unspoken rule between the two parties.

Just knowing what happened is enough.

If Old Deng hadn't said "keep safe," he really wouldn't have wanted it.

on the way home.

Su Tianyan drove Su Cheng.

Ye Li followed behind in her own Magotan.

Throughout the journey, Su Tianyan kept praising Su Cheng in various ways.

He was praised in every way.

But this doesn't include giving him a car.

Su Cheng originally thought he would be flattered, and kept saying it was nothing, it was what he should do as a son.

But in reality, he didn't feel that way at all.

The only feeling I had was nausea.

Old Deng's kind words disgusted him.

This feeling was completely different from what Su Cheng had predicted.

Little Cheng used to especially long for Su Tianyan's praise.

But now he was disgusted by Old Deng's praise.

How to describe it... well... I felt uncomfortable all over.

After returning home to the county, Su Cheng secretly told Ye Li about her feelings.

Ye Li explained frankly, "That's how it is for everyone, just don't feel like you're special."

Su Cheng felt a great weight lifted off her shoulders.

It's so great that Sister Chestnut understands him!
"I don't understand at all. It's mainly because we're too kind."

As a child, she didn't even have the right to cry.

If her crying parents got annoyed and yelled at her, she would have to shut up.

If she didn't stop crying after her parents told her to shut up, she would immediately be beaten again.

This kind of psychological trauma will stay with them for life, and the aftereffects are numerous!

That night, the two stayed in the county.

Su Tianyan asked Su Cheng to tidy up Tian Xiangwei's room so that Ye Li could stay there temporarily.

Su Cheng immediately realized that Ye Li's importance in Lao Deng's heart had increased significantly.

To know.

My mom's room is enclosed.

When Ye Li first came to their home, she could only stay in their old family house.

Ye Li is now allowed to stay in her mother's room.

This truly shows that they treat Ye Li as family.

"Xiao Ye, you can stay here tonight. We'll go to Grandma's house tomorrow so you don't have to make a round trip."

"Oh, okay!"

……

The next morning.

The three of them packed their things and prepared to go to their maternal grandmother's house.

"Take these things to your grandma."

"This is for your uncle."

"This is for your second uncle."

Su Tianyan pointed around and planned out all the gifts Ye Li had brought over a couple of days ago.

Su Cheng was very puzzled.

"Dad, I bought all of these for you!"

"Then why don't we save money and just buy more?"

Su Cheng: ???
What kind of logic is this?

A box of milk for Chinese New Year, once it's gone around in circles, it's back home.

Save money by buying it?

The key point is that they bought very expensive items!

"Dad, why don't you just buy some more for Grandma? These are all things Xiaoye bought for you, they're very expensive."

“Oh, that won’t do. You can’t just fool your grandma like that.”

"You carry this up the truck first, then I'll give it to your aunt. I'll see what else you can carry for your uncle."

Su Tianyan and Su Chengguang carried things up and down the stairs several times.

Old Deng sent out most of the items.

"Dad, if you keep moving things, there won't be enough room for anyone else in our car."

Su Tianyan hadn't even considered having anyone in the car: "Why don't you guys drive Xiao Ye's car first?"

"Huh? We're going to drive two cars?"

Su Cheng has already started criticizing Old Deng.

Why isn't he talking about fuel efficiency now?
"Hmm, what can we do now that we've already put things in there?"

Ye Li immediately winked at Su Cheng: Just go along with your dad.

Driving two cars is just a way to show off that you bought a new car, isn't it?

Isn't this exactly why they bought a car for Su Tianyan?

We need to let others know so that their car purchase will be most effective!
And these are the gifts.

If Su Tianyan doesn't take it out, how will others know that his son and future daughter-in-law gave him such an expensive gift?

Were those gifts she bought for food and drinks?
You can eat and drink it, but that won't allow it to reach its full potential.

We need to let others know!
So what if I drive two cars? What's a little bit of gas money?
