Chapter 151: Tasting!
Zhou Wang actually sometimes envies his mother's generation.
They may not have enough material wealth when they were young, but when they grow up, they are really not lonely.
Six brothers and sisters!
Unlike their generation, most of them are only children. If they still can't find a suitable partner, they won't even have a decent spiritual sustenance when their parents return...
A large group of people returned to the main room, looking at the bustling scene of laughter and laughter. It was still the familiar smell of the past, but this time Zhou Wang could no longer squat in the corner to warm himself by the fire and play with his mobile phone. He was pushed directly to the middle of the sofa by his uncle and sat down. Next to grandma who looked slightly confused.
Although Zhou Wang's grandmother is old, she is still in good spirits. She wanted to go out to join in the fun just now, but was stopped by her aunt...
So grandma and aunt were the only people present who didn't know what happened.
But grandma can also see the changes in her eldest grandson.
She didn't know what to wear or what hairstyle to wear, and she couldn't describe her temperament, but she just felt that...my eldest grandson is really energetic!
"Grandma, you miss me so much!"
Zhou Wang sat down next to his grandmother, hugged her as he did when he was a child, and laughed.
This scene surprised Zhou Wang's parents, but there was also some relief in their eyes.
When Zhou Wang grows up, like other boys, he rarely expresses his emotions so openly. Generally, when faced with the closeness of his elders, he is mostly coy...
At this moment, they really felt that their son had really matured.
Zhou Wang could only say, if not everyone wants to be rich, if you can be as "young and promising" as me, the so-called change in mentality is just a matter of a moment...
"Okay, okay, just come back!"
Grandma smiled and grabbed Zhou Wang's hand, "You have graduated, have you found your unit..."
"Mom, your grandson is very successful now, and he came back in a Mercedes-Benz!"
Before Zhou Wang answered, his uncle Zhao Guilin had already turned on the mouth-raising mode and said something with emotion.
"Zhou Wang, how did you get rich?"
My aunt asked first.
All the relatives in the room were staring at Zhou Wang. Whether it was the second uncle or third uncle who left first, or the aunt or uncle who left later, they only knew that the eldest sister's family was prosperous and Zhou Wang was rich...
But what is going on? In fact, everyone is still in the dark at this moment. They are too curious...
"You guys also know that I went through a lot of troubles in the first few years of college. Didn't I borrow thousands of dollars from my uncle at that time... Well, my investment in the Internet was ruined at that time, but later I was able to survive again. I made some money and invested in some industries, and then it became like this."
When facing relatives, naturally he can no longer use the same rhetoric as when facing his parents. Before this, Zhou Wang had already gotten angry with his parents.
Why not mention the lottery?
Because Zhou Wang didn't want to give his relatives the illusion that his money came too easily...
Although the relationship between the brothers and sisters on my mother's side is very good, except for the occasionally snobbish aunt, there are basically no annoying relatives in TV dramas, but when it comes to the human heart, try to avoid it if you can avoid temptation...
"What investment? How much money did you make?"
Uncle Zhao Guishan couldn't help but speak.
My uncle had made some money from his fruit business and built a house. However, his uncle had been living in a relatively poor life despite ups and downs over the years. When he heard that Zhou Wang might have a way to make money, he was naturally interested.
"It doesn't work anymore. After the official control, most of the online investments are scams. Elders, please don't get involved. I don't dare to invest anymore."
Zhou Wang quickly extinguished his uncle's fantasy, and then said with a smile: "A lot of my current assets are not cash, but they add up to tens of millions..."
It's not that Zhou Wang wanted to hide anything deliberately.
Among grandma's six children, only Zhou Wang's mother, Zhao Guihua, has really established herself in the city. The other elders have all lived in the countryside for a long time, with no worries about food and housing, but the cash they can earn every year, except for the three small foremans, My uncle and my brother-in-law who is in the fruit business, there are not many others...
Therefore, based on their understanding of money, even millions is a big deal. Tens of millions is already approximately the limit of their imagination, and there is no need to use "hundred million" as the unit.
Because the effect is the same...
Sure enough, even the most prosperous uncle here, who has been exposed to hundreds of thousands of "big money", was shocked, let alone others.
"Oh yo!"
"How much does this cost..."
"It's incredible!"
At this time, the simplicity of rural people was once again reflected. Regardless of men or women, they did not hide the shock and envy on their faces.
Grandma also said "Oh", then took Zhou Wang's hand and patted it continuously, "It's good to make money, my eldest grandson is the boss, good, good, good..."
"Zhou Wang, since you have made money, when will you bring us elders to enjoy the happiness!"
Amid the exclamation of laughter, my aunt covered her mouth and laughed.
The tone was half-joking, but it also revealed a hint of jealousy in my aunt's heart.
But in the eyes of Zhou Wang, who has a clear mind, the interesting point is...my aunt actually doesn't know what her state of mind is when she says this.
So Zhou Wang wouldn't argue with her, he just laughed and said, "That's okay, we are a family, and we must honor those who deserve it!"
"Qingkui!"
Zhou Wang shouted, and Jiang Qingkui, who had been waiting at the door, immediately walked in.
Both she and Miao Ying were holding a cardboard box in their hands, which contained things Zhou Wang had prepared in advance.
Under the curious eyes of all the relatives, Zhou Wang stood up, took out the red envelopes from the carton and started handing them out according to the order of seats.
"Auntie, this is a tribute to you and my uncle. Thank you for changing my diapers when I was a child!"
"Harm, you kid, no need, no need..."
Despite her aunt's refusal with a smile on her face, Zhou Wang still stuffed the red envelope into her hand.
The red envelope was the largest one, with a thickness of about half a brick. It was obvious at first glance that it was a lot of money. My aunt took a sneak look at it under the encouragement of my aunt, and she was so happy that she couldn't close her mouth from ear to ear.
The red envelope contains the standard 10,000 yuan.
This amount of money is approximately equivalent to one-third of my aunt's annual cash income...
Zhou Wang didn't consider anything like cigarettes, alcohol, etc. As a gift to these relatives, money was the most practical thing.
"Uncle, when you were still in the textile factory, I made a lot of trouble in your dormitory. This is to honor you..."
"Uncle, we brothers won't say much more, hahaha..."
"Second aunt, thank you for not killing me when you caught me smoking in the field..."
"Third aunt..."
None of the five families was spared. On the surface, they all received big red envelopes worth ten thousand yuan, but Zhou Wang winked at his uncle Zhao Guilin.
The red envelope he gave to his brother-in-law was stuffed, leaving him thousands of extra "private money". After all, although his brother-in-law has the ability to make money, his family status is really miserable. It depends on whether he can realize his good intentions. Already...
"Zhou Wang, why don't you give your grandma a big red envelope too?"
At this time, my aunt asked strangely.
"I've rushed to show off, then it's time for my mother to scold me!"
Zhou Wang waved his hand and said with a smile, "So I leave my filial piety to my grandmother to show to my mother..."
"You brat, you know how to talk!"
Zhao Guihua laughed and cursed, but she still sat next to her grandma, took out the red envelope she had prepared, handed it into her grandma's hand, and whispered something.
Zhou Wang just looked at this scene with a smile, and did not explore the specific amount of money his mother gave.
Zhou Wang naturally has the deepest feelings for his grandmother, otherwise he would not have considered the age limit first when buying high-end medical insurance.
But filial piety to the elderly must be paid attention to.
It may not be a good thing if you give them too much money. Grandma actually doesn't have anything to spend it on, so Zhou Wang lets his mother do what she wants in this regard, and he won't interfere.
"Of course, since it's grandma's birthday, as the leader of the grandchildren, I can't be silent at all."
After his mother and grandmother finished talking, Zhou Wang smiled and clapped his hands, attracting everyone's attention again. "Grandma, do you want to see what a foreign country is like?"
Zhou Wang sat down next to his grandmother again, put his arm around her shoulders and said mysteriously.
"Oh, going abroad?"
Grandma reacted for a moment and then understood what her eldest grandson meant.
"That's right!"
Zhou Wang laughed and said, "I have already made arrangements for you. I am just waiting for my dad and mom to take a leave and take you to Europe. It will take you 10 countries and 21 days to relax!"
"Shall we take your grandma?"
Zhou Dajun and Zhao Guihua, who had no prior knowledge, were also stunned.
"Yes, my mother must be fine. It doesn't matter whether the small tea room can be opened or not. Dad, you should be able to ask for leave. After all, you have been transferred to the archives room. If it doesn't work, just make an internal withdrawal. You have worked hard for half your life. You I'll also take my mom out for some sightseeing."
Zhou Wang's words really touched the hearts of Zhou Dajun and Zhao Guihua, and they had no reason to refuse at all.
Even when I heard about going to Europe, I was filled with excitement and anticipation.
There are very few people of their generation who have ever traveled abroad. Zhou Dajun barely did so once. If he checked on the border monument...
"Elders and cousins, you can go wherever you want. Don't worry, I've covered all the food, accommodation and air tickets. You just need to make time and go have fun. !"
Zhou Wang did not let the envy of other relatives last for long, and quickly looked around again and smiled.
As soon as Zhou Wang said this, the atmosphere in the room suddenly became lively again.
If you can go abroad for free, you would be a fool not to go!
Zhou Wang actually hopes that the more people can go, the better. After all, grandma is also a lively person. With so many children following her, her sense of experience will definitely be maximized.
How can the elderly have so many extravagant desires? As long as the whole family is reunited, anywhere is home...
As the lyrics say, it's simpler than six hundred dollars.
"Elders, you decide for yourself whether you want to go or not. If you want to go, just ask my mother to sign up and send you your ID card then. You don't have to worry about anything else."
After they laughed for a while, Zhou Wang finally concluded.
Passports, visas, air tickets, etc. are all handled by Brother Ruan. After Jiang Qingkui gets the list, she only needs to provide it to Brother Ruan's company.
As for Zhou Wang, he was only responsible for paying the bills, and he definitely didn't have much interest in traveling with his elders.
"Xiaoxin, come here!"
After arranging the elders, Zhou Wang waved to his eldest cousin again.
"elder brother..."
The eldest cousin is from the second aunt's family. He just graduated from high school this year and barely got a second grade in the exam.
"Here, this is a gift to congratulate you on getting admitted to college."
Zhou Wang took out a laptop, a tablet, a mobile phone and a Bluetooth headset from the box.
The standard Huawei "Hongmeng four-piece set".
"Ouch, this, this is too expensive..."
The eldest cousin was still amused by the surprise, while the second aunt waved her hands in embarrassment.
"Second aunt, since the elder brother has made money, this is what he should do. Besides, you need to be encouraged when you get into college!"
Zhou Wang smiled and took the opportunity to say: "Elders, let me put my words here. No matter who the baby is, as long as it can be admitted to college, I will give it a computer and mobile phone. If you want Apple, Huawei or any other brand, you can choose it yourself! "
"Not only that, I also cover the tuition for the four years of college. If you can pass the postgraduate entrance examination and get a doctorate, I will also cover the tuition. Of course, I still have to worry about living expenses on your own..."
"Zhou Wang's proposal is a good one, I support it!"
Lao Zhou excitedly slammed the table and was the first to express his position.
Relatives are naturally happy to see the results. As long as the children can live up to their expectations, how much money will be saved after four years of college...
Cash red envelope + overseas travel + "family education fund", after a combination of punches, even the younger aunt was speechless and turned around to get the collection of high-end fruits to entertain Zhou Wang.
But in the end, Zhou Wang still took his mother alone and said something.
"Mom, since I gave you five million, I won't interfere with how you use the money. I also believe that you have this sense of propriety, so if you encounter anything like borrowing money, you can make your own decision, but anyway There will definitely be no chance if they come to me..."
"Don't worry, Mom is sensible."
Zhao Guihua was stunned for a while, then she vaguely understood what her son meant, and she nodded immediately.
Everything that needs to be arranged has been arranged, and everything that needs to be said has been said. Zhou Wang did not stay in the house anymore. He must leave some space for his father and mother to show off alone...
Of course, facing the increasingly explicit compliments from his relatives, Zhou Wang was really a little overwhelmed...
The main reason is that he has a tender face.
...
Originally, it was not that late to eat in the countryside, but because there were so many people today, and because we had to wait for Zhou Wang's great-aunt to arrive from another place, the final meal time was set at seven o'clock.
After going for a walk on the field ridge, Zhou Wang still had time to check the time, so he asked Jiang Qingkui to contact the photography studio that he had found before.
After the photographers and lights arrived, Zhou Wang greeted a group of relatives and took a family photo.
However, he still underestimated the enthusiasm of women for taking pictures. He originally just took a few group photos and that was it, but he ended up being tormented by these women for almost two hours.
If it hadn't been getting dark and my aunt and her family were about to arrive, the men couldn't help but get angry. I guess they could have dragged the photographer to take photos until midnight.
After all the busy work, we finally had dinner at close to eight o'clock.
Cold rice noodles, clear soup dumplings, fried crispy pork, boiled fried fish, braised beef, braised lamb, fried potatoes with classic Houttuynia cordata...
Right!
They are all the most common big fish and meat in the countryside here, but Zhou Wang enjoyed them very much.
Although Zhou Wang can't eat houttuynia cordata, he can eat coriander very well.
However, these flavors are difficult to taste outside the village, so Zhou Wang cherishes this moment...
When the meal was almost done, the second uncle happily took another sip of the Maotai brought by Zhou Wang, and suddenly said with some worry: "I'm afraid Mr. Zhao's family won't give in so easily, right?"
The originally lively atmosphere at the dinner table suddenly became sluggish.
"Brother-in-law, this is the era of rule of law, don't worry, I'm sorry they don't dare to mess around!"
Zhou Dajun, who had drunk some wine, waved his hand and said, "If there is anything wrong, I'll call the police!"
"I'm afraid it's not that simple. Zhao Deli is actually a bully and fears the strong. He was so humiliated after being punished by Zhou Wang today. He probably won't be able to fart in the future."
The third uncle smiled bitterly after hearing this, and analyzed it objectively, "But, it's hard to tell about his eldest brother Zhao Dezhu, because we're afraid that others won't reason with us..."
"Yes, I'm just worried that Zhao Dezhu will act randomly!"
The second uncle immediately echoed, "Others of the five sons of Mr. Zhao's family are fine, but Zhao Dezhu is really a bit ruthless. When Zhao Shusheng started his career in construction, Zhao Dezhu followed him, but..."
Zhou Wang listened to his second uncle telling some rumors about Zhao Dezhu vividly. Even his uncle who was "unafraid of nothing" became silent. He just smiled slightly.
It's already 2024. After the "sweeping out X", how can there be so many ruthless people...
Those who can still live a good life outside now, even if they are ruthless, are also smart and ruthless.
However, Zhou Wang didn't interrupt. He just looked at the time, thinking that it was almost time, assuming that Zhao Shusheng had really inquired about his situation.
But given that Zhao Shusheng would definitely inquire about his situation, this assumption was not tenable.
Boom!
It can only be said that the [Divine Luck Halo] is awesome. Zhou Wang once again experienced a little illusion of "all his wishes coming true". He had just had the corresponding idea when the knock on the door had already sounded...
