On the third day of the Lunar New Year, the Su family gathered at the home of Su Tang's uncle Su Wei Zhong.
Su Tang's family also picked up her grandparents, and when they arrived, her aunt Su Weimei and her family had arrived earlier than them.
Su Mingyue's boyfriend hasn't arrived yet, and everyone is talking excitedly. Bai Yuefeng's words sound boastful.
Su Wei Zhong's house has three bedrooms and a living room, which is much larger than Su Tang's, and the decoration is also very high-end.
Everyone in the family has a formal job, so their conditions are pretty good.
Su Tang and his younger brother Hu Chen both found it boring, so they said something to Su's father, and the two of them went downstairs together to the small supermarket at the entrance of the community to buy some snacks.
Hu Chen was a smart kid. As soon as he came downstairs, he took Su Tang's arm affectionately and said, "Sister! Buy me a game card!"
Su Tang didn't say yes or no, but asked him with a smile: "You didn't get any New Year's money? No way!"
Su Tang remembered that Hu Chen was very favored in the Hu family, so the New Year's money could only be more, not less.
Speaking of this Hu Chen's face looked as if he had eaten bitter melon.
"Don't mention it! The New Year's money I got from my grandma and grandma's house was confiscated by my mom when I got home, leaving only a few dozen yuan for me."
Su Tang laughed heartily without any sense of loyalty: "My aunt is quite capable!"
Hu Chen looked aggrieved: "Sister! You are too cruel! I am so pitiful, and you still laugh at me!"
Su Tang tried to hold back his laughter. He couldn't hurt the little boy's heart again.
"Okay! I was wrong! Go on!"
The two talked as they walked, and they were almost at the supermarket at the entrance of the community.
“… I was originally thinking about buying some cards to play games, but now it’s over, I can’t do anything! Sister, were you like this when you were a kid? Adults are so authoritarian, they don’t understand us at all! Sometimes I really want to run away from home!”
Su Tang thought that this had never happened before. It seemed that the tight ring that his aunt had put on the child was too tight.
She quickly patted the child on the shoulder and advised: "Little brother! If you want to threaten someone by running away from home, you will be in trouble!
You see, without money it’s hard to go out, and the world outside is scary.
If a teenager like you were kidnapped by bad guys and your arms and legs were broken and you had to beg for food, you would be helpless!
Even if you really want us to save you, there is no one to help you!"
Hu Chen was simply stunned by Su Tang's remarks. He asked in disbelief, "Sister! Is what you said true? I feel like you are making up lies to scare me!"
"Why would I lie to you? I told you this just to give you a heads-up. If you run away from home one day, don't blame me for not warning you if something like this happens to you!"
Hu Chen followed Su Tang thoughtfully, randomly picked some potato chips and sausages in the supermarket, and then the two walked back.
Halfway through the walk, Hu Chen seemed to want to confirm again, so Su Tang started giving him sweet dates again.
"Of course it's true! But little brother, I also think your mother has gone too far. I'll find a chance to speak good words for you to your mother later.
And I'll give you a hundred bucks to buy a game card, how about that? But first you have to finish your winter vacation homework before you can play the game!"
Hu Chen raised his chin proudly: "Of course!" Then he clapped his hands and laughed: "Haha! Sister! You made a mistake! I finished my winter vacation homework two days before the New Year. If I don't finish it, my dad will really beat me with a big belt!"
Su Tang rubbed his hair with amusement, this kid! So smart!
"Look at how cold your ears are for going out without a hat!" The tips of his ears were red.
"It's okay! Sister! I'm able to resist the cold!" Hu Chen kept calling out to his sister with a smile on his face.
Not long after Su Tang and her brother went upstairs and entered the house, Su Mingyue's boyfriend arrived.
Su Mingyue introduced everyone with great joy, and the whole family treated him warmly.
However, Su Tang had met his brother-in-law in his previous life, so he greeted him calmly.
Su Mingyue’s boyfriend is Jiang Jingyi, and his family is in the building materials business.
Except for Su Tang, the whole family felt that it was a blessing for Su Mingyue to find a husband's family with such good conditions.
Jiang Jingyi has a proud personality and is indifferent to everyone. Moreover, Su Tang is a bystander, and he speaks and acts towards Su Mingyue with a strong sense of superiority.
Su Tang found the right opportunity to tell Su Weimei about Hu Chen, saying that children are very rebellious when they reach adolescence, and sometimes you don't need to be too strict with them, as this will easily lead to children developing a rebellious mentality.
Su Weimei agreed and promised to communicate well with her child in the future.
Su Tang didn't know how much effect her words would have, but at least she knew what Hu Chen was thinking and she would definitely mention it to her aunt.
As for what will happen in the future, it is not something she can control. She is not a god, so how can she control others
After a bland meal, Su Tang and his family left with his aunt and her family.
After returning from Su Wei Zhong's house, Su's father and mother talked about Su Mingyue's boyfriend.
"The boy looks good!" Father Su took a sip of tea and sighed, "But I don't think Mingyue's boyfriend will be wholeheartedly good to her in the future!"
Su Tang exclaimed in his heart, Dad is so predictable!
But in this situation, it's a matter of Zhou Yu fighting Huang Gai, and both are willing to fight. Not to mention that their second uncle and second aunt are usually looked down upon by others, even their biological parents would be jumping for joy and want to rush to that rich family, right
Mother Su frowned slightly and continued, "Just mind our own business! Don't you understand how your elder brother and sister-in-law are doing today
We should not say these things in front of others, or they will think we are jealous!"
"That's true!" At this time, Su's father had to admit that what Su's mother said made sense.
When Su's mother saw that Su's father did not refute, she looked at Su Tang knowingly, then got up and went into the kitchen, taking out the cooked pork elbow from the refrigerator to thaw it.
Dad Su was drinking tea in silence. Suddenly he looked at Su Tang who was watching TV and eating oranges.
Father Su had something else to say: "When my daughter is looking for a husband, I can't be like her uncle and his family, only looking at conditions and not character.
My daughter, you are already a sophomore, are there any boys chasing you in school?"
He can't control others, but at least he can control his own daughter!
"Cough! Cough!" Su Tang's nose became sore due to the orange juice and tears came out. It took him a while to recover.
She couldn't help but complain: "Dad! You are so good! Can you stop jumping around so quickly? You were talking about someone else just now, and now you start talking about me!"
"You kid! Daddy is just concerned about you. Tang Qinyu already has a boyfriend. If you meet someone suitable, your mother and I are open-minded people and will not stop you! Why are you feeling guilty?"
"Dad! Look at what you said. Why should I feel guilty? I didn't do anything to hide anything from you!"
Su Tang felt that she was even more wronged than Dou E. She was just distractedly thinking about how she should do a part-time job to accumulate some initial capital after school started. Her father could understand that she was feeling guilty!
Father Su suddenly asked seriously, "Daughter! You don't have a boyfriend and hide it from us, do you?"
With this assumption, Father Su felt strange. Whenever he thought about his beautiful, generous and sensible daughter, he wondered which bad boy might have tricked her into getting her. He felt upset.
Su Tang immediately sensed her father's mood change, and hurriedly made a sincere assurance: "Absolutely not! If there is, I will definitely tell you the first time!"
"Really?" Su's father was a little unconvinced. (To be continued)
