Chapter 122: The Man with a Room
Chen Ran's grandfather's family lived in Sioux City, not far from Qucheng, and it only took about two hours to reach it by hovering car.
I leave at 8 o'clock in the morning, and I can arrive at almost 10 o'clock, and I am not afraid that I will not be able to catch up with lunch.
Soon, Chen Ran's family arrived at the community of his father-in-law's house outside Sucheng, and after explaining his intention at the doorman's office, he entered only after the doorman's phone confirmation.
I drove the car into the yard of my grandfather's detached townhouse.
Chen Ran's uncle Su Changhe can be regarded as a small achievement, he runs a small company by himself, and his life is quite nourishing.
"It's coming!" Chen Ran's uncle Su Changhe heard the movement and walked out of the house to greet him, with a smile on his face.
Chen Yuanting and Su Xiaoqing looked at each other, when did their eldest brother become so enthusiastic?
The three of them got out of the car, and Chen Ran shouted respectfully: "Uncle! ”
"Come inside! Come inside! Su Changhe greeted with a smile.
Chen Ran got back into the car, took out the gift from the space ring, and honestly followed his parents into the house, leaving the sleeping Bai Xiaoqiyi cat in the car.
In fact, he didn't want to take Bai Xiaoqi with him, but he relied on Chen Ran not to leave, and he couldn't do it, but fortunately, his parents didn't disagree, so he took Bai Xiaoqi with him.
"Come on, why do you bring so many things?" Su Changhe seemed to be in a good mood and said with a smile.
Chen Yuanting was a little uncomfortable, and said with a smile: "It's all worthless things, it's Xiaoqing's little heart for your father and eldest brother." ”
At this moment, Chen Ran's grandfather and grandmother walked out of the inner room.
Grandfather Su Yuesheng glanced Chen Ran up and down and said, "Chen Ran has grown a lot taller, the last time I saw you was two years ago!" ”
"Grandpa and grandma!" Chen Ran greeted politely.
"Mom and Dad!" Su Xiaoqing and Chen Yuanting also greeted each other.
"That's it! Yuanting and Chen Ran sit down, Xiaoqing, you go to the kitchen to help your sister-in-law! Grandpa commanded directly.
Su Xiaoqing was helpless, nodded in agreement, and walked to the kitchen.
"I heard that Chen Ran was admitted to Xingcheng University this year, it's very powerful!" A few people sat down, and my grandfather said to Chen Ran with a smile.
Chen Ran smiled shyly when he heard this, and said, "Good luck!" ”
"It's a pity, you didn't practice martial arts, after all, martial artists are the most respected now, and they can be said to be the pioneers of our human race!" Grandpa sighed, and then smiled, "Look at your cousin, he is still tempering his body in the martial arts hall!" I guess I'll be back in a while! ”
Speaking of Chen Ran's cousin Su Shangwu, grandmother Lu Xiuxiang smiled and said: "Xiao Wu has the ability, I heard that now they are all little masters of the ninth stage!" I can't say that one day I will break through to the realm of awakening! At that time, our family will also count out a martial arts master! Xiao Ran, you have to learn from your cousin! ”
Chen Ran was speechless, and could only nod a little embarrassedly.
Chen Yuanting knew his son's ability, and hurriedly said, "Mom and Dad! In fact, Chen Ran... ”
was interrupted by his grandfather Su Yuesheng: "Okay, okay!" I know what you're going to say, it's really good that Xiao Ran can be admitted to Xingcheng University, but it's poor and rich! In this era, martial arts are even more important than technology, Yuanting, you have to accept reality! ”
Chen Ran patted his father's thigh lightly and said with a smile: "What my grandfather said is that this era belongs to the era of martial artists, and everything else has to stand aside!" ”
"That's right! is worthy of being a top student admitted to Xingcheng University, Xiao Ran is still very insightful! Grandpa said with a smile.
Time passed in the various praises of his grandparents, grandmothers, and uncles to Chen Ran's cousin Su Shangwu.
At about half past eleven, Su Shangwu came back from outside, dressed in a martial arts uniform, looking red, he should have just finished tempering and rushed back not long after.
Seeing that Chen Yuanting and Chen Ran didn't say hello, they said directly: "I'll go take a bath first, and I'll come down to eat later." ”
"You, you, you don't have a day off for the New Year today!" Chen Ran's grandmother nagged to Su Shangwu, and her tone was full of doting.
Grandfather Su Yuesheng glared at his old woman and said, "What do you know as a woman, what you need to practice martial arts is perseverance, and you can't pull it down for a day!" Our Xiao Wu has done a good job in this regard! ”
The meal had already been prepared, but the family waited until Su Shangwu finished cleaning up before starting the meal.
At the dinner table, grandmother Lu Xiuxiang kept serving Su Shangwu dishes and said, "Xiao Wu, you consume a lot of martial arts, eat more!" ”
Su Shangwu didn't reply, just buried his head in hardship.
Chen Yuanting opened his mouth and smiled: "It seems that Xiao Wu is really hungry!" ”
Grandfather Su Yuesheng said at this time: "Xiaoqing, Yuanting! I have something I'd like to discuss with you this time. ”
"Dad, what do you say?" Chen Yuanting replied with a smile, and Su Xiaoqing also looked at his father with a puzzled expression.
"That's the case, you also know that Xiao Wu is already in the ninth stage, and he may break through to the realm of awakening at any time, and now he is short of a better teacher, if there is a good guide, he can also enter the awakening as soon as possible! You're right! ”
Although Chen Yuanting didn't know what his father-in-law Su Yuesheng wanted to express, he could only nod his head and say: "Yes!" ”
"But a good teacher asks for money! Xiao Wu has already found a teacher who has awakened to the peak realm of the third stage by himself, and he will pay one million tuition fees a year! Grandfather Su Yuesheng said as if he was a little embarrassed.
"So much!" Su Xiaoqing was surprised, looked at Chen Ran, and wanted to speak, but Chen Yuanting pulled his sleeves under the table, so he had to swallow back what he wanted to say.
"Yes, so I hope you will also come to help this time, and in the future, Xiao Wu will become an awakened powerhouse and be able to take care of you, who are aunts and uncles!" Chen Ran's aunt Wang Haili continued.
Su Xiaoqing said in a sullen voice: "A million is so much, we can't take it out!" ”
Uncle Su Changhe smiled: "It's not that you are all out!" Anyway, now that Chen Ran is also in college, you can work and study by yourself, and you can give as much as you want, even if your brother asks you to borrow it! In the future, Xiao Wu will become a great master of the awakening realm, and he will be able to read your good! ”
Grandmother Lu Xiuxiang helped: "That's it! If you can give a little bit, you will be able to return it to you in the future! Xiao Wu, you said yes, right? ”
When Su Shangwu heard this, he raised his stuffy head, glanced at Su Xiaoqing and Chen Yuanting, and said angrily: "It must be returned!" ”
"Look at it! Look! Our Xiao Wu has said that he will definitely pay it back, what are you afraid of! Aunt Wang Haili smiled.
Su Xiaoqing was helpless and said: "Parents, brother and sister-in-law, the main thing is that we just spent money to buy a house for our family a few days ago, and we have to decorate and buy furniture or something, and we don't have much money on hand!" ”
"What? You just bought a house? Why don't you discuss such a big matter with me? Grandfather Su Yuesheng glared.
Su Xiaoqing complained in her heart: "Did I discuss it with you? I'll talk to you about everything, I can't buy a house yet? Am I still married to Yuanting? ”
Grandmother Lu Xiuxiang was a little anxious, and said: "Xiaoqing, Xiaoran has not graduated from university yet, and your house is not just needed and not in a hurry!" Why don't you just return it! The money refunded will be used to pay Xiao Wu's tuition! ”
"Mom! Is the house said to be returned? Su Xiaoqing replied helplessly.
"And how much money do you have left?" Grandpa asked directly.
Su Xiaoqing glanced at Chen Yuanting and Chen Ran, saw the glorious image of her great hostess in their eyes, turned her head to look at her father with satisfaction, and said, "Fifty thousand!" ”
