Chapter 33 The turmoil before the dinner
The hotel was not far from their parents' house, and the three of them went to a roadside store to pick up cigarettes and alcohol for the party.
This tobacco and alcohol shop is owned by a distant cousin of Yi Qian. I usually get all the tobacco and alcohol that I need here.
But when I picked it up, my cousin Jiang Jian happened to be away.
It was my cousin-in-law whom I rarely saw, who was looking after the store, but seeing the disgusted and reluctant expression on her face, Yi Qian almost became angry.
It's quite common for parents to do this, after all, the cigarettes and alcohol they get are ordinary goods.
Jiang Jian also acted righteously and did not make any profit, but only gave it to his family at the purchase price. After all, his wife had no friendship with his family, so it was normal for her to be a little emotional.
In the end, the cousin said she didn’t know where to put the cigarettes and alcohol that her cousin had helped bring, so she asked her cousin to deliver them to Yi Qian and the others when he came back.
The parents did not doubt that he was there, so they thanked him and came out of the store.
"When my wealth is slowly revealed to my parents in the future, I must make it look good to her." Yi Qian was still a little angry.
After arriving at the hotel, Uncle Yi Qian and his family had arrived early.
Yi Hongtu quickly went up to say hello and shook hands with a smile.
Uncle Wang Kang's expression changed and he did not reach out.
Yi Hongtu's hands froze in mid-air, his face was blue and purple, and he was very embarrassed.
My mother, Wang Qingyue, has a straightforward temperament, speaks quickly, and says without anger, "Brother, what's going on? Who messed with you?"
Aunt Li Yujuan was chewing melon seeds and looking away, "We drove two hours from the county to get here, how come you guys got here later than us?"
Yi Gan saw that his uncle was surprised and quickly explained, "Uncle and aunt, I'm really sorry. I took up some time by running and taking a shower in the morning, so I came here a little late."
"It's late, why don't you take a taxi here? If you don't have money, I'll reimburse you."
Li Yujuan's tone was contemptuous, and her words were more hurtful than a knife.
Wang Qingyue looked sad, and these words touched her heart.
Yi Gan's family is just an ordinary family. They grew up in the countryside. His father is a teacher and his mother is a farmer.
My parents have not been in good health these past few years and have a lot of ailments, making it difficult to manage the few acres of land in their hometown.
Yi Kun also worked hard and was admitted to a public institution in Xiongguan City, so his family moved to Xiongguan City collectively.
In recent years, in order to provide their two children with the security to start a family, their parents spent their hard-earned money over the years to help their children purchase two new houses.
The married couple took out a mortgage on a cheap second-hand house of small square meters.
This year, Yi Kun is getting married, buying home appliances and giving gifts to the bride’s family.
It's really hard for my parents to afford it, and they tried to borrow money from my uncle's family before, but failed.
However, my parents' constant frugality was interpreted as stinginess by my uncle's family who did not understand them.
The atmosphere is not particularly harmonious on weekdays, but today I took the opportunity to humiliate my parents.
But they are relatives after all. Apart from their harsh words, my uncle's family does not feel sorry for my family on weekdays.
Yi Qian suppressed his anger and explained, "I just went to Jiang Jian's cousin's store to get cigarettes and alcohol, which wasted time. When the cigarettes and alcohol arrive, I will propose a toast to my uncle to apologize."
Yi Hongtu was also very angry, but he was finally relieved to see Yi Qian endure the humiliation and bear the burden, and move forward and retreat with magnanimity.
Unexpectedly, my uncle, who had been silent for a long time, choked out and said, "There is no need to toast. If you are in trouble, I probably won't be able to come up with any good wine, so I won't embarrass you."
Auntie sneered and said nothing.
Yi Qian took a deep breath, resisted the urge to curse, and said coldly.
"That's a pity. I also said that I would give my uncle a few bottles of Feitian Moutai to try. It seems that you don't have enough to take it orally."
"Hahaha"
Wang Kang seemed to have heard the most ridiculous joke in the world, pounding the table and laughing wildly.
Wang Kang stopped laughing and said seriously, "If you can bring me a few bottles of Feitian Moutai, I'll toast you and apologize!"
"That is, if you don't have money, don't talk big words and be a down-to-earth person."
He Yongling lectured as if she hated iron for not being able to become steel.
Yi Hongtu and Wang Qingyue also felt that their son spoke too loudly just to get angry.
If you know your own conditions, which family can afford Maotai?
Just when Yi Hongtu was about to educate his son, Wang Qingyue quietly pulled Yi Gan out of the room.
Wang Qingyue's eyes were red and she took out a bank card.
"Son, this is my mother's salary from doing odd jobs in the factory in the past two months. It's more than 5,000 yuan. It should be enough to buy the Feitian Moutai you mentioned."
"Although our family has no money, we can't stand this anger. I support you, son!"
Yi Qian's nose was sore at what his mother said, and he almost shed tears.
After her family moved to Xiongguan City, Wang Qingyue found a job doing odd jobs in the factory in order to help her family supplement the family income. She only had three days off every month and the salary was only over 2,000 yuan.
Yi Qian naturally knew how hard it was for his mother to earn the money, so in order to save his own face today, he actually took the pain and took such action.
Wang Qingyue saw Yi Gan's painful expression and comforted her, "It's okay, son, we can't let others look down on you. You can make money from your work now, and you can just pay it back to your mother after you make money."
Yi Qian instantly felt how stupid he was to hide his income from his family even though he had obtained the system.
"We can't let our parents suffer like this anymore, not even for a second!"
Yi Qian instantly made up his mind, made a decision, and handed Wang Qingyue's bank card back.
Then he turned on his mobile phone and demonstrated to Wang Qingyue, "Mom, I'm actually doing very well now, and the boss of the company doesn't trust me. I earn tens of thousands a month now, and they said they would give me hundreds of thousands in dividends at the end of the year. "
"I'm afraid that if I say it all at once, you'll be worried that I'm doing something illegal."
Wang Qingyue looked at Yi Qian's mobile phone, which contained more than 10,000 gold in Alipay, as well as the massage chair he bought for himself on Taobei, and the Xiaomi TV he bought for Yi Kun.
His eyes suddenly brightened, and he said with great surprise, "Son, you are really promising."
"Well, Mom, I'm capable now, and I won't let you and Dad suffer any more and live a miserable life!"
"You go in first, and I'll handle the rest. Just watch!"
Yi Qian pushed his mother into the private room.
I looked at the system panel and saw that there was still more than 1,000 in the amount that had not been reflected before. I earned another 10,000 yuan from running in the morning, and now there is more than 11,000 yuan in the system.
Yi Qian withdrew all the unwithdrawn amount.
Then he sent a WeChat message to Jiang Jian, asking for help to bring six bottles of Feitian Moutai and two strips of Chinese cigarettes.
The market price of a bottle of Feitian Moutai is 1,400, but there is no price. If it is 1,600 to 1,700, my cousin may be able to get it.
The price of Chinese cigarettes is relatively fixed, less than 900 yuan for two cigarettes.
In order to avoid embarrassing Jiang Jian, Yi Qian first transferred 10,000 yuan to him via WeChat.
Finally, I transferred another 1,500 yuan to my brother and asked him to go to the hotel and buy a box of high-end tea.
After the consumption is completed, the money in the Yiqian system has been consumed, and the points have reached 12652.
