Reborn not to be a simp, the school beauty's whole family goes crazy

Some fish should have died long ago, but their deaths were only exposed after the water evaporated.

The people of Qin were like a dying fish.

He can die, but he can't implicate his family.

In his previous life, Qin Min not only harmed his eldest sister but also his own father.

Because he was arrested for smuggling tobacco and sentenced to death, Chen's father, who had recommended Qin Min to work for the tobacco bureau, was also implicated.

He was just a few years away from a peaceful retirement, but he was dismissed from his public office.

Chen Jianguo is a man who cares a lot about his reputation, and because of this, he is constantly being gossiped about.

The father spent his days drinking and became depressed, and the mother also became taciturn.

A once happy family has been torn apart.

……

"Come on, Xiaodong, eat more vegetables." His mother kept putting food on Chen Dong's plate.

"Yes, Mom, you eat too."

Chen Dong buried his head in his food, not wanting his parents to see the tears welling up in his eyes.

He hadn't eaten his mother's cooking in so long.

It smells so good, really good.

Chen Jianguo glanced at Chen Dong and pretended to be angry, saying, "You brat, now you're starting to meddle in family matters. Why are you interfering in your brother-in-law's house purchase?"

Chen Dong composed himself, having already prepared his explanation.

"Dad, how can you say that? Why can't I care about my older sister's affairs?"

"Why is my brother-in-law in such a hurry to buy a house?"

"Borrowing money everywhere when you don't have any is just adding unnecessary pressure to yourself."

"And they also want you to build connections with city leaders."

"You're already taking a considerable risk by using your company car to take me."

"They say a tall tree catches the wind, so you have to be careful."

"Think about it carefully, isn't that the truth?"

Chen Jianguo glared at him: "Hey, you little brat, you know it's not good for me to drive you to and from school?"

"You don't need to deliver anymore," Chen Dong replied immediately.

"Aren't you going to take Shen Yue home?"

"No delivery."

"hehe."

"Just don't focus your attention on Shen Yue all the time in the future."

"That girl doesn't seem like the type to settle down and live a stable life."

"She dresses up in fancy clothes every day, but I heard she doesn't do any housework at home. What kind of behavior is that!"

"And her parents, they have such a mean and sarcastic look on their faces."

“Our Chen family can’t produce a daughter-in-law like that.”

Chen Dong nodded repeatedly, "The old man sees things clearly."

Why didn't you listen to any advice back then?

Li Huazhen patted Chen Dong on the shoulder with satisfaction and said protectively, "Honey, Xiao Dong has grown up."

"What he said today makes sense to me."

“Our son knows how to think about the family, you should be happy.”

Chen Dong felt a warmth in his heart from those words.

These are my parents, who will always believe in me without reservation.

……

The next day

Chen Dong got up early, ate breakfast made by his mother, and then rode his old bicycle straight to the Hunan restaurant where his eldest sister worked.

There aren't any customers in the store right now, since it's not a rebate period.

Several waiters were gathered together peeling garlic and preparing vegetables.

"Miss!"

Chen Xiumei was quite surprised to see her younger brother arrive.

"Xiao Dong, what brings you here? Aren't you going to school today?"

"Today is Saturday, there are no classes."

"Sit down, sit down."

Chen Xiumei brought him a plate of melon seeds and opened a bottle of soda.

Chen Dong felt a warmth in his heart.

My older sister is so good to me.

My older sister had such a miserable life in her past life, I must make her happy in this life.

"Hey sis, how's business at the shop lately?" Chen Dong asked casually while cracking sunflower seeds.

"That won't work. It's hot now, and we southerners don't eat spicy food much."

"I don't know what the owner was thinking, opening a Hunan cuisine restaurant here."

"Business has been slow these past few days, and I don't know how much longer the owner can stay open."

"Who knows, your sister might lose her job one day."

"Hey, why didn't you go to the village to look for Shen Yue today?"

As Chen Xiumei was chatting, she suddenly asked a question.

On weekends, her younger brother would often run to Shen Yue's house and stay there all day, not returning until dark.

It was all to bring mung bean cakes for Shen Yue.

"not going."

"What's wrong? Did you two fight again?"

Chen Xiumei was quite surprised. She put down the garlic in her hand and looked at Chen Dong with a gossipy expression.

Chen Dong always talks about Shen Yue, often bringing her food and drinks, and even providing her with a car to pick her up and drop her off at school.

How can you just decide not to go now?

Has her younger brother changed his personality?

Chen Dong paused in his sunflower seed-eating, then took a sip of his beverage.

"The college entrance exam is coming up soon, so I need to hurry up and study."

"I'll try my best to get into a good university and make my parents happy."

These words struck a chord with Chen Xiumei.

"Yes, yes, that's how it should be."

“You and your second sister are both smart, unlike me, who started working right after graduating from junior high school.”

"At least your second sister went to high school and got a job."

"Unlike me, that's all I've accomplished."

As Chen Xiumei spoke, her eyes dimmed.

She also wanted to go to university to bring honor to the Chen family.

But she wasn't destined for that.

"What are you saying, elder sister?"

"There are 360 ​​professions, and every profession can produce an expert."

"Now that the country is vigorously developing the economy and the market has been opened up, doing business is actually more profitable than having a secure job."

"Don't underestimate your boss just because he's not good at running a Hunan restaurant here. He actually has a long-term vision."

"It won't be long before more and more people go south to do business."

"People come and go from all corners of the world."

"As long as he perseveres, focuses on the local market, and builds his brand, he won't have to worry about not having customers in the future."

"When I have money in the future, I will sponsor you to open a restaurant. We will make it big and strong, and open a national chain restaurant."

Chen Dong's words left Chen Xiumei completely stunned.

The other waiters at the next table also stopped talking and listened attentively.

"Oh my, this is terrible, Dongzi."

"Where did you learn all this stuff?"

"Your sister is talking so passionately."

However, Chen Dong changed the subject.

"Sis, how much do you earn a month now?"

"When I'm busy, I can make around eighty yuan. Why are you suddenly asking this?"

"No, just asking."

Chen Dong, cracking sunflower seeds, finally got to the point.

“My brother-in-law came to our house last night.”

"Is it true that you said you wanted to borrow money from your parents to buy a house?"

"Yes, that's true."

Chen Xiumei pursed her lips, seemingly a little depressed.

After a moment, she spoke again.

“Your brother-in-law did mention buying a house to me.”

"After being married for so many years, I've saved up some money."

"But it's far from enough for a down payment."

"Even so, I never thought of borrowing money from my parents."

"I was thinking of saving up for a few more years, and then buying it later."

"I don't know why Qin Min... is suddenly in such a hurry."

Chen Dong listened, and he already knew what was going on.

"My brother-in-law has been a deputy section chief for almost a year now."

"His monthly salary plus bonus is probably about the same as our dad's."

"Adding your monthly salary of eighty yuan, after deducting expenses, it should add up to 200 yuan."

"200 a month, 2400 a year."

"Indeed, if we save for another three or four years, we'll have enough to buy a house."

"Hey sis, do you usually manage this money?"

"This is not."

"Qin Min usually takes care of the household expenses."

“I save half of my salary and give the other half to him.”

"It was deposited together with his salary in another savings account."

"But he took the passbook."

Do not know why.

At this point, Chen Xiumei suddenly became a little nervous.
