520 Picking up garbage and marrying into a wealthy family

"Hey, sister-in-law, why are your eyes so bright? Let me tell you, this bag..."

On the woman's side, she pulled Chen Aifang along and the atmosphere became lively again.

Xiang Aiguo and Chen Dejie were pulled to the men's table. They were playing mahjong and King of Coins. Under their table were fruit shells, cigarette ashes and cigarette butts.

When there are too many people, the air becomes polluted.

Xiang Huanian extremely hated such scenes, and also hated the secondhand smoke that filled the air.

So, after she greeted all the unfamiliar relatives with a smile, she went to the kitchen at the back alone.

"grandmother!"

Xiang Huanian looked at his grandmother who was sitting on an old-fashioned little stool, at the fire mouth of the old-fashioned stove, her face flushed red by the firelight, and smiled his first sincere smile.

“It comes every year!”

Grandma shoveled the red-hot charcoal out of the stove and put it into the brazier in front of her. She smiled and responded to Xiang Huanian.

Grandma was the only one in the kitchen. Xiang Huanian took this opportunity to quietly hand the red envelope hidden in his pocket to grandma.

"Grandma, I'm making money now, so you don't have to give me a red envelope this year. It's my turn to give you a red envelope as a token of my filial respect..."

When I return to the village and see familiar people, for some reason, the language I speak will automatically switch to the familiar dialect mode.

"No, no, you're still young. I've prepared a red envelope for you this year. I'm rich, so you can spend the money yourself..."

This is what an elderly person who truly cares about the younger generation is like. They always say that they have enough of everything and will not be greedy for what the younger generation has.

"This is what I wanted to give you. Even though it's not much, just keep it and buy yourself some food and some things. Don't be reluctant to spend it, and don't give it to my uncle who's in debt, okay?"

Xiang Huanian's uncle, Chen Aifang's younger brother, is really... not a competent son.

Perhaps it was because he benefited from the dividends of the times when he was a child. His two older sisters had to give him all the delicious food at home, so he developed a carefree character.

He never does anything properly and always does things the way he wants.

When I was young, I opened a plumbing and toilet repair shop in town. As long as I worked hard, I could have saved up a little money...

But he had never suffered any setbacks since he was a child. He was the youngest son who grew up being spoiled without thinking, influenced by the times.

So, when he was young, he was thin-skinned but also wanted to save face. Many of his debts could not be collected outside, and he had no way to deal with those shameless deadbeats. Then, in the long run, he went bankrupt.

Originally, as a farmer, he could actually have enough food and warm clothes.

however.

It would be fine if he just did his job... Although he clearly doesn't have the ability, he has a strong ambition to become a young master.

Before, when homestays and farm stays were popular, he applied for several plots of land in the village, wanting to follow the trend and run a farm stay. However, due to his lack of education, he was cheated and was also led by some evil people, and picked up bad habits.

He alone has the ability to turn a good family into a mess.

It was also at this time that he owed a lot of debts, which was said to be over seven figures, and he still hasn't paid it off.

Later, he found an office job in the village, earning a subsistence wage every month, but he did not contribute anything to the family expenses, was away from home all day, let alone share the farm work at home.

He went to play mahjong and lost all his money. Then he asked his wife for more money. He also set his eyes on the pension that his two sisters had paid for their grandmother before. After getting it, he spent it all and did the same thing over and over again... He was a complete scoundrel.

Therefore, Xiang Huanian specifically reminded him of this.

"……I see."

The grandmother was also helpless about her little son who grew up crooked.

After several refusals, grandma finally accepted Xiang Huanian's red envelope as a gift.

"If you give me a red envelope, then you can't refuse the red envelope I prepare for you."

"Grandma, no need, I'm already this old..."

"Yes, yes, I must..."

Grandma stood up, put Xiang Huanian's red envelope in her pocket, avoided everyone's sight, and took Xiang Huanian to her room. Then, she took out a thick red envelope from under the wardrobe and stuffed it into Xiang Huanian's coat.

Feeling that the red envelope was not thinner than before, and was even thicker, Xiang Huanian's eyebrows jumped and he hurriedly took it out of his arms.

But at this moment, Chen Aifang's call came from outside.

"Niannian! Niannian? Where are you..."

Xiang Huanian was not exaggerating. Chen Aifang's screams were like a suona that called away souls, harsh and ostentatious.

Xiang Huanian could even hear the people around him starting to call her, following Chen Aifang's lead.

"Your mother is calling you, go quickly, there might be a surprise."

Ok?

Looking at the slightly teasing expression on his grandmother's face, Xiang Huanian suddenly had a bad feeling.

then.

"Come, meet him. This is your aunt's daughter's friend... He's about your age, 26. You two young people should chat together."

Standing next to Chen Aifang was a short, fat, very old man with thinning hair, who was constantly looking up and down at his reproductive parts...

Xiang Huanian felt that his bad premonition had indeed come true.

No wonder, at the beginning, Chen Aifang told Xiang Huanian to remember to ask her boss for triple salary, and then the next second she changed her mind and said she had asked for leave. It seems that she was tricked into coming back for a blind date.

"You guys might as well go for a walk in the village and buy some fireworks for the kids..."

Seeing Xiang Huanian's face full of reluctance, Chen Aifang pushed Xiang Huanian towards the blind date man, seemingly giving him a suggestion, but in fact, she secretly twisted Xiang Huanian and gave him a wink.

Xiang Huanian: “.”

"Okay, Auntie, let's go buy it now."

The blind date guy was very satisfied with Xiang Huanian's appearance. He smiled, took over Chen Aifang's words, and was about to hold Xiang Huanian's hand.

Xiang Huanian: “!!?”

WTF! ?

"Don't you have any manners? Don't touch me! And don't touch me!"

Xiang Huanian quickly took a step back, frowned, and stopped the other party's actions.

The situation fell into a momentary stalemate due to Xiang Huanian's resistance.

Faced with Xiang Huanian's non-cooperation, not only did the man frown, but Chen Aifang's face also turned dark, and the smile on her face froze.

Noticing the man's displeasure, Chen Aifang quickly smiled and said:

"I'm sorry, I didn't explain myself clearly. I need to explain a few things to her first. Please wait a moment..."

As she spoke, Chen Aifang grabbed Xiang Huanian's hand forcefully, pulled him a few steps away, and began to discipline and lecture him.
