Chapter 158: The Outside World

"Qin Ran, when are you coming back?"

With a look of surprise, the second aunt was pulling her nephew Qin Tiantian and asked.

"Ahh The second aunt is good, and she has grown a lot taller every day. ”

Unexpectedly, as soon as I returned to Yulan, I kept meeting acquaintances one after another. Seeing this, Qin Ran also hurriedly replied to say hello.

"Every day, aren't you called big brother?"

The second aunt pulled her son to her and asked.

"Hello big brother."

Qin Tiantian was still shy and whispered.

"Well, my eldest brother brought you a gift and sent it to your house in the evening."

Although it is only a nominal relative, the second aunt still cares about Qin Ran very much, which can be known from her enthusiastic eyes.

"How about going to the second aunt's house for dinner in the evening, it's rare for you to come back once."

"No, I still have some things to do. I'll come back to your house to play after dinner in the evening, and by the way, I'll give a gift from a friend to Tiantian. ”

It was difficult to resist the enthusiasm, but Qin Ran still didn't plan to go to the second uncle's house to find it uncomfortable. lest he be unhappy with the food, and he himself will not be satisfied, so why should they not be happy with each other.

The awkwardness between her husband and Qin Ran, the second aunt knows it in her heart. Seeing that Qin Ran is not a master who is easy to bow his head, and his husband is a strong temper, I am afraid that the entanglement between the two families will be resolved by time.

"Okay, if you come early, maybe you can catch dinner together."

Qin Ran thought to himself that the second aunt was so reasonable, but the second uncle was unkind, and the family had a scripture that was difficult to read.

Bidding farewell to the second aunt, Qin Ran went to the market to make a big purchase, couplets, New Year's goods, candies, etc.

At dinner, Qin Ran simply ate egg noodles, and a person's life is so simple.

While there was still time, he quickly cleaned up the small square table under the posthumous photo of his "parents", put fresh tributes on it, and burned three pillars of incense to show his sincere respect. After all, the "parents" left enough legacy for Qin Ran to start, otherwise he would not have developed today's achievements in just one and a half years.

After doing this, Qin Ran sat on the chair next to him in a daze, and suddenly remembered that he hadn't been to worship in front of his "parents" for a long time, and he didn't know if the wild grass on the cemetery was messy. It seems that he has something to do tomorrow morning, Qin Ran has made up his mind to set off tomorrow morning to sweep the tomb.

Packed up the "Shengji Biscuits" brought back from Hong Kong, which was a gift that Qin Ran specially prepared to give to his little nephew Tiantian. Then Qin Ran went to the roadside fruit stall to buy some seasonal fruits, and then rode to the second uncle's house.

When I came to the door of the second uncle's house, I found that the small western-style building on the second and a half floors was brightly lit, and there was a second-hand Santana parked next to the wall. Qin Ran remembered that last year, former accountant Wang Changchun had said that his second uncle had contracted the project, and it seemed that the progress was not bad, and the second uncle's family not only redecorated the small western-style building but also bought a second-hand car.

"Ding-dong-"

Qin Ran rang the doorbell.

I heard a rush of footsteps, and the second aunt ran to open the door sweatingly.

"Qin Ran, you're here."

As soon as he opened the door, Qin Ran heard the shouts of guessing and drinking from inside.

Seeing that the second aunt was a little hesitant on her face, and she didn't immediately invite herself into the house to sit, Qin Ran felt a little strange and asked.

"What's the inconvenience?"

"Alas, when I came back, I told your second uncle the news that you were coming to dinner, and he specially called a group of people to dinner, and now I am so drunk that I am busy serving them."

As soon as he heard this, Qin Ran thought to himself that this was really the style of the second uncle, and specially set up a Hongmen banquet to wait for him to come to the door.

"It's all at home, I'm always going to come in to visit your elders as a junior."

Qin Ran now has the confidence, and he will not be afraid of his second uncle in terms of momentum, but the other party is afraid that he will not be able to suppress himself and has invited a helper to help.

Seeing Qin Ran walking into the courtyard with a gift, the second aunt couldn't stop it, so she had to hurriedly follow his footsteps.

As soon as I came to the hall, I found that there were 7 or 8 people sitting inside, basically all of whom were subordinates of Qin Ran's previous construction team, and of course, there was also Wang Changchun, a small accountant.

"Yo, everyone's here!"

As soon as Qin Ran, who was carrying a gift, appeared, he startled the group of people who were drinking on the head. Qin Yaozu originally had the intention of showing off or humiliating him in front of Qin Ran, but he didn't expect to give Qin Ran a preemptive attack and frustrate his spirit.

"Why haven't you seen me for more than a year and don't know me?"

Qin Ran took the initiative to hold the right to speak in his own hands.

originally thought that Qin Ran would be very depressed now, or that he would become a nerd when he read, but he didn't expect Qin Ran's aura to suppress everyone as soon as he came out. Everyone sitting in front of the hot pot turned their eyes to Qin Yaozu, after all, he was everyone's head.

"Second uncle, long time no see, how is Yiqiē okay?"

Without waiting for the other party to reply, Qin Ran walked into the living room generously and put the gift in his hand on the coffee table.

"Humph!"

Qin Yaozu snorted coldly, although there was a festival between the two, they were both operating behind the scenes, and there was no face-to-face conflict and tearing their faces. Qin Ran's statement made it a little difficult for his second uncle Qin Yaozu to accept the offer, and he was not good at putting on a face of bullying the small.

"Every day, every day?"

Qin Ran shouted towards the stairs.

"Big brother, I'm here."

Hearing the call, Qin Tiantian flashed out of the kitchen.

At this time, the second aunt also walked up with tea.

"Qin Ran, why don't you sit upstairs, have a cup of tea, and have fun with every day by the way."

Taking the tea with both hands, Qin Ran said with a smile.

"No need, I'll just stay and leave, I still have some things to do."

Then he pointed to the biscuit and continued.

"These two boxes of biscuits were brought back by my friend from Hong Kong, and it is said that many mainland tourists queued up to buy them and give them away. You and taste it every day to see how it tastes? ”

"Thank you, big brother."

At this time, Qin Tiantian also said thank you appropriately.

In this way, Qin Yaozu just wanted to use the topic to get mad, but it was not good to show it in front of his son.

"Humph!"

The expression on Qin Yaozu's pig-liver-like face was very unsightly.

"Qintou, everyone's harvest this year is good, much better than in previous years. On behalf of the brothers, I would like to give you a drink, the famous boss Qin in the construction industry of Yulan County. ”

Wang Changchun took the initiative to speak at this time, he saw that Qin Yaozu was choked by Qin Ran for a few bad words, so he thought of another way to find a place for the current boss.

"Yes, a cup to Boss Qin!"

The others reacted at this time and raised their glasses.

Qin Ran knew that they were showing off to themselves like this, especially highlighting the contrast between the past and the present. It used to be Qin Ran's family, but now it means following Qin Yaozu.

"It's all the brothers who give face, and this year we got about 5 million orders, and the benefits are average. But compared to before, it is indeed a great improvement! ”

Finally finding an opportunity, Qin Yaozu looked at Qin Ran loudly and said.

When I asked you kid to take care of the business, you didn't listen and you sneered me from behind. Now it turns out that no matter how much you struggle, I eventually took over your father's business, and I carried it forward. On the contrary, it was you, who ran to Jiangzhou and achieved nothing.

Thinking of seeing Qin Ran's discouraged appearance, or he took the initiative to admit that he was not as good as himself, or opened his mouth to compliment himself for doing well, but Qin Yaozu found that he didn't. None of the situations he imagined had happened, but he saw a trace of intriguing sympathy on Qin Ran's face.

"5 million, that's a lot, really! I wish you all a better year in the coming year with tea instead of wine. The outside world is very exciting, the outside world is very helpless, everyone is welcome to have time to see the outside world. ”

Without waiting for the other party to respond, Qin Ran raised his head and drank the tea in his hand, touched his nephew Qin Tiantian's head, and then turned to leave, leaving only Qin Yaozu and the others, who were confused, not knowing what Qin Ran meant by the last sentence.

originally wanted to take the opportunity to deliberately demonstrate, but in the end, Qin Ran single-handedly went to the banquet to kill his own side, and Qin Yaozu was really depressed.

When Qin Ran mentioned 5 million, Qin Yaozu saw a look of contempt in his eyes, and his young nephew didn't seem to be impressed by the figure of 5 million at all.

"Is it an empty city plan, or does it have a big backer?"

In any case, Qin Ran's appearance tonight made Qin Yaozu feel that he could no longer look at this nephew with the same eyes as before, and he was even more difficult to deal with than he imagined. Even, from Qin Ran's eyes, he was like an ant, as long as he wanted to, he could crush himself at any time.

Coming out of the second uncle's house, Qin Ran rode his bicycle home, and on the way, he was also thinking about why he still couldn't control his feelings, and it was a shame to worry about someone like his second uncle with his current net worth. But you have to let yourself accept the insults and show off in front of your second uncle, which is absolutely impossible, no one is perfect, and you are a layman.

Early the next morning, on the twenty-ninth day of the lunar calendar, Qin Ran drove an Audi to the cemetery where his "parents" were buried. When I arrived at the place, I found that the cemetery had been cleaned not long ago, and there were still traces of incense and candles in front of the tombstone. The imaginary overgrown situation did not happen, and Qin Ran thought about it for a while and guessed that this qiē should be done by the second aunt. He is far away in Jiangzhou, and his second uncle Qin Yaozu will definitely not be like this, and the only possible person left is the second aunt who has always been reasonable. Yulan County has the custom of worshipping ancestors on the winter solstice, so it is speculated that it should be inseparable.

The second uncle didn't care about Qin Ran himself, but what the second aunt did made Qin Ran unable to ignore.

"Alas......"

Qin Ran sighed, the second uncle Qin Yaozu really picked up the treasure, and he would take care of their family in the future with the second aunt's appearance. Therefore, it is difficult for a clean official to decide family affairs, and the affairs of his own family are also a mess.

Chen Hao and Li Desheng obeyed Qin Ran's instructions and did not take the initiative to come to the door, but both of them called Qin Ran's mobile phone to say hello. After all, the big boss is home alone, and he still has to come over if he needs help. However, the two drove home an Audi A6L, which still caused a sensation among the neighbors. Seeing that the two of them were thriving in Jiangzhou, relatives and friends were envious, and they walked around with gifts.

China is the land of etiquette, and it pays attention to emotional investment. Relatives and friends who come to the door with gifts are not necessarily asking you to help immediately, more often than not, they just report for a backup, and when it comes to emergencies, there can be capable people who come in handy.

Under the guidance of Qin Ran's low-key behavior, Chen Hao and Li Desheng also had their bodies in their hands, at least they did not take the initiative to publicize their deeds in Jiangzhou. But the phone calling them to the banquet kept ringing, and being able to open the A6L at least means that there is a certain way behind the two, so there are people with ulterior motives who want to get to know the two. finally went home, and both of them had no time to go to the banquet with a unified voice, so it was the best excuse to purchase New Year's goods and accompany their families.

A person's loneliness will also have a person's happiness, at least Qin Ran has been alone for the past two days. In the thirtieth year of the Chinese New Year's Eve, the second aunt sent some meals as usual, and Qin Ran once again refused her invitation to eat the Chinese New Year's Eve dinner, and it was not bad to keep the New Year alone and welcome the New Year.

In the middle of the Spring Festival Gala, seeing the 2 boxes of "Shengji Biscuits" still left at home, Qin Ran thought about it and decided to dial the landline phone at the girl's house in Jiangzhou.

"Toot-"
