"Ah, it turns out that Brother Chen has his own house. That's great. I originally planned to go to Sunan City before school started and live in Brother Chao's house. But now I have changed my mind. I want to go to Haicheng City and go to the future in advance.

Go take a look at the place where I lived for four years and go to Haicheng University. Brother Chen, can I stay at your house?" Xue Qi looked at Xue Chen with clear eyes.

"No need to ask, of course it's no problem." Xue Chen agreed with a cheerful smile.

Xue Qi is the youngest of her father's four siblings, and the most loved by everyone. Xue Chen also likes his quirky little sister, so he is naturally happy and welcomes her to visit Haicheng.

Xue Chao also said: "In that case, I will also go to Haicheng to sit and visit Xiaochen's house."

He wanted to see if it was true that the company rewarded Xue Chen with a house.

"Okay." Xue Chen agreed smoothly without thinking too much.

"It's extremely hot. I chilled the watermelon and ate some to relieve the heat." Luo Huijuan went to the kitchen to cut the watermelon and brought it up. Everyone took a piece.

When Xue Zhenfen was taking the watermelon, she happened to see the necklace hanging around Luo Huijuan's neck, and asked in surprise: "Second sister-in-law, when did you buy the necklace? It's quite beautiful, it's jade green and the color is really watery."

Luo Huijuan took it out, pursed her lips and smiled: "I bought it from Xiaochen. I spent a lot of money. I said it cost two or three thousand."

Xue Chao, who was nibbling watermelon, glanced casually. When he saw it clearly, he almost fell off the chair and said hurriedly: "Second Aunt, show me the necklace around your neck."

After getting closer to confirm again, Xue Chao was stunned and said in disbelief: "This necklace is made of platinum, and the jade inlaid in it seems to me to be real. It is made of ice. How can it be two or three thousand? It's just two

I can’t even buy it for thirty thousand dollars.”

Everyone in the room looked at Xue Chen when they heard this.

Xue Chen glanced at Xue Chao unexpectedly: "Brother Chao, do you still understand jade?"

"Xiao Chao works in a jewelry company in southern Jiangsu. Of course he knows something about this. Xiao Chen, please tell me what this necklace is about. It costs tens of thousands. How do you say you bought it for two or three thousand?" Xue Hongxi

Pointing at the necklace around Luo Huijuan's neck, she asked.

Xue Chen didn't expect that someone would see it, and he had another headache. He had finally managed to get over the issue of the house and car, and now he had to think of words again.

After all, in the minds of his family, his monthly salary is more than 10,000 yuan, and it is unreasonable to spend tens of thousands to buy a necklace just after working for a year.

"This necklace, actually... I won it in a lottery!" Xue Chen said in a hurry.

"Won the lottery?" Everyone exclaimed in surprise.

"Yeah, one time, I went shopping in a mall, and there was a lottery for consumption. I was lucky enough to get the first prize, which was this necklace. I was afraid that my mother would find it too expensive and wouldn't wear it, so I just said it was two or three.

Thousands." Xue Chen explained half-truthfully.

"You child." Luo Huijuan looked at Xue Chen lovingly, and was even more moved in her heart.

"Brother Chen, you are so lucky. You can win the first prize, and it is such a precious prize." Xue Qi said with joy and envy.

Ning Xuanxuan was eating watermelon and watching Xue Chen talking nonsense. She couldn't help but laugh in her heart. The corners of her lips raised and she could hardly hold back her laughter.

Xue Chao was very envious of Xue Chen's luck. Such a necklace cost at least tens of thousands of yuan, and he had to work for several months without eating or drinking to get it.

While people in the room were chatting, Xu Deji, who had gone for a drive, came back. As soon as he entered the room, he sighed: "Brother Chen, your car is awesome. It has a nice appearance, a good interior, and a more powerful engine. It's better than a supercar."

My brother’s Mazda is much more comfortable to drive, but the roads near our village are not good and the speed cannot be increased.”

"The Lexus that Xue Chen drives is pretty good. It costs hundreds of thousands to buy it. But after all, it is the property of their company, so you have to be careful when driving it. It's very troublesome if you get bumped. My car is a bit bad, but it's my own after all."

?" Xue Chao said with a smile.

"That's true."

Xu Deji agreed, then turned to look at his mother and begged, "Mom, why don't we also buy a car? You see, Brother Chao and Brother Chen both have cars, but I don't. I work in the town every day.

I have to ride a motorcycle, and I won’t come back covered in dust one day.”

Xue Zhenfen wanted to reject it outright, but then she suddenly thought about what her son said. Her eldest brother and second brother's family had already bought cars. The fourth daughter's family didn't need to consider it. Her son didn't drive a car, and he didn't look good.

, when the villagers saw it, they thought their family was living a bad life.

When Xue Chen heard that the third aunt's family also wanted to buy a car, he said: "If you want to buy a car, I have a friend in Haicheng who has opened a 4S store. If you buy a car from him, I will definitely give you the best discount."

"

"Xiaochen, is that friend of yours really reliable? He doesn't know how to do it, right?" Xue Zhenfen felt a little moved when she heard what Xue Chen said.

"Third aunt, don't worry, it won't happen." Xue Chen said with a smile.

Xu Deji begged for a few more words, and Xue Zhenfen finally relaxed: "Well, when Xiaochen returns to Haicheng, we can go directly together and go to Xiaochen's friend's 4S store to have a look. As for whether to buy it or not.

, let’s make a decision when we get there.”

After a while, Xue Qi, Xue Chao and Sangu's family went to Haicheng. Xue Chen looked at his parents and said: "Mom and Dad, why don't you go to Haicheng with me? If you can, stay here."

It’s okay in Haicheng.”

With his current capital, he no longer needs his parents to work in the fields and can provide for his old age safely. He has long had such a plan and proposed it now.

Xue Hongfa shook his head: "It's okay to go to Haicheng together for a walk, but we can't stay there forever. Haicheng is too expensive. Your mother and I can't drag you down. Besides, we can still move our arms and legs now.

You don’t need to support me.”

"Yes, Xiaochen, your dad is right." Luo Huijuan also agreed.

When Xue Chen saw that his parents disagreed, he was not in a hurry. It would not be too late to persuade his parents after he slowly understood his situation.

"Xiaochen, your house can't fit in. Are there too many people here?" Xue Hongxi asked, holding his knees with both hands.

Xue Chen waved his hand: "No problem, we can stay here."

"It's okay. There's not enough room. You can lay the floor on the floor. It'll be cooler." Xue Hongfa said with a smile. He was very happy that his son had his own house.

Everyone discussed it again and decided to set off to Haicheng City together in a few days. There were eight people in two cars. Only the uncle Xue Hongxi was in the room and did not plan to go together.

After the discussion, a group of people took the gifts from Xue Chen and stood up to leave. Luo Huijuan wanted them to have dinner together at home, but none of them stayed.

After dinner in the evening, as the sky gradually darkened, Luo Huijuan placed a low table in the yard, with a fruit plate on it filled with cut watermelon, fresh grapes, cherries and apricots.

Xue Chen, his parents, and Ning Xuanxuan were sitting around the table, chatting in the refreshing evening breeze.

Xue Chen asked about the Taoist temple a mountain away from the village. He had already planned to go to that Taoist temple to absorb spiritual energy before returning home.

"Xiaochen, why did you suddenly ask about that Taoist temple? It has been deserted for a long time. There used to be a Taoist priest, but he ran away last year. I passed by it a while ago, and the weeds inside were as tall as one person." Xue Hong said.

"That's it."

Xue Chen became a little worried. Since the Taoist temple was deserted, no one would go to offer incense and worship. According to his speculation, there might not be aura in the Sanqing statue.

But now that he has gone home, he still wants to take a look anyway. Even if there is only a slight possibility, he cannot let it go. Even if there is really no spiritual energy, it is just a waste of time.

"Uncle, how come that Taoist temple was built in such a remote place?" Ning Xuanxuan asked curiously, holding her cheek in one hand and squinting her eyes.

"I heard from the elders in the village that it was built by a wealthy family who moved nearby more than a hundred years ago. However, that family was later attacked by bandits. Because the bandits thought that the gold and silver they had stolen was too little, they killed them.

Many people, and later the remaining members of that family moved away, and the Taoist temple has been repaired by villagers from nearby villages. However, it has stopped working in the past few years. Today's young people don't believe this anymore.

I went to work in the city to make money."

Xue Hongfa told everything he knew and sighed, seeming to feel sorry for the dilapidation of this Taoist temple.

"Mom and Dad, I plan to go to that Taoist temple tomorrow." Xue Chen said.

"Xiaochen, what are you doing there? It's not only far away, but the road is also difficult to walk." Luo Huijuan asked in surprise.

"Just walk around and take a look. I'm studying archeology and I'm very interested in these old things. Don't worry about me. I grew up here anyway, so I won't get lost.

." Xue Chen said lightly with a smile.

"You can go if you want. It's not the past anyway. There are no big wild animals on the mountain. As long as you don't get lost, there is no danger." Xue Hongfa said while pushing the fruit plate in the direction of Ning Xuanxuan.

"Girl, eat cherries."

Ning Xuanxuan smiled and said thank you, picked up a red cherry and stuffed it into her lips, then looked at Xue Chen and said, "I want to go with you too."

"Why are you going with me? Just stay at home." Xue Chen refused immediately.

Ning Xuanxuan curled her lips, turned her head, looked at Xue Hongfa pitifully, and said softly: "Uncle, look at him..."

boom!

Xue Hongfa slapped the table with his big hand, causing the fruit plate to bounce up. He glared at Xue Chen and shouted, "What are you talking about? My daughter Xuanxuan is a guest. Since she wants to go, then you should accompany her."

Go, it’s finally here, you can just accompany me wherever you want to go. If you are so rude again, be careful I will slap you."

"That's right, Xiaochen, wherever girl Xuanxuan wants to go, you can stay with me." Luo Huijuan also followed suit.

Xue Chen raised his hands as if surrendering, and said helplessly: "Okay, okay, I promise."

He was really helpless. His parents were completely captured by this female devil in just one day. He was now completely a vulnerable group. With the support of his parents, he could really be a bit more confident.
Chapter completed!
