Chapter 354: Showing off superiority, jaw dropping
"Thank you, uncle!"
Su Qianqian followed Zhou Can in addressing these elders.
Zhou Can's mother saw that her uncle and aunt had given red envelopes, so she also took out a big red envelope from her bag. There must be a lot of money in it, because the wallet was bulging and about to burst.
According to Zhou Can's local custom, the red envelope that the mother-in-law gives to her future daughter-in-law is usually based on her own financial strength.
The minimum amount is 666 yuan, any lower would be a bit embarrassing.
Those who are more affluent and are very satisfied with the girl will basically give 6666 yuan or even 8888 yuan. Generally, it will not exceed 10,000 yuan, after all, no one's money comes from the wind.
If the amount exceeds 10,000 yuan, the red envelope cannot contain it.
"Qianqian, this is just a small token of my appreciation. Use it to buy two pieces of clothing!"
“Thank you, Auntie!”
Su Qianqian took the red envelope, felt its thickness in her hand, and a touch of emotion appeared on her face.
She knew Zhou Can's family situation, which was almost bankrupt. Now that she had just paid off her debts, she gave her such a thick red envelope, which showed her appreciation and love for her.
"Everyone gave red envelopes to the pretty aunt, why not me?"
A slightly childish voice sounded.
But it was my cousin Zhou Hai’s daughter who was speaking.
The little girl was about three years old, at that age when she had a baby voice, was cute and adorable, and a little clever and naughty.
After hearing this, everyone burst into laughter.
Fortunately, Zhou Can had already prepared several red envelopes.
He immediately took one out of his pocket and walked over.
"That's because you didn't call me! If you call me Uncle Chan, I'll give you a red envelope to buy candy!"
Zhou Can squatted down and teased his cousin's child.
"Hello Uncle Chan!"
She actually mustered up the courage to call Zhou Can, but after calling, she immediately turned around and threw herself into her mother's arms, buried her face in them, and hid.
"Hey, little Sugar Bean has a nice voice and is so sensible! Here, I'll use this red envelope to buy you some candy."
Zhou Can smiled and stuffed the red envelope into her hand.
Having gotten what she wanted, the little girl turned and looked at Zhou Can.
"My name is not Xiao Tangdou, my name is Huanhuan." She pouted and corrected Zhou Can's mistake.
"Oh! So your name is Huanhuan, I'll remember it!" Zhou Can suppressed his laughter and nodded seriously. "Do you like candy beans?"
"I like it! Candy beans are delicious! But my mother told me that eating too much candy is bad for your teeth because it will cause worms." The little girl said in a serious tone, which was really adorable.
Su Qianqian also came over, also holding a red envelope in her hand.
"Huanhuan, can you call me? I have a red envelope for you too!"
The little girl looked at him with her big innocent eyes.
Then he shouted crisply, "Hello, beautiful auntie!"
"Haha, your sweet little mouth is so adorable! Auntie will give you a red envelope to buy some candy, but don't eat too much!"
Su Qianqian looked very happy.
She was tired of being praised for her beauty by adults, and adults usually didn't mean what they said.
On the contrary, children's words are innocent and believable.
"Thank you Uncle Chan and pretty auntie!"
The little girl's mother taught her daughter to say thank you.
"Thank you!"
The little girl is so young, but she has her own way of thinking and seems very independent.
If this little girl is brought up well, she will have a great future.
“Huanhuan is awesome!”
Zhou Can couldn't help but praise her.
Su Qianqian also likes this little girl very much.
"If Achan and your sister-in-law like children, they should get married and have two!" His cousin has a good relationship with him and doesn't mind talking to him in a polite manner.
The word "sister-in-law" made Su Qianqian blush with embarrassment.
Having two children is such a sensitive topic that it is even more embarrassing for an unmarried girl.
"Haha, we both try hard to learn from our cousin and sister-in-law!"
Zhou Can laughed it off to ease his girlfriend's embarrassment.
"Let's go to the hotel and eat and talk! After dinner, Qianqian and I have to rush back to the provincial capital to work."
"The bad thing about resident doctors is that it's hard to even get a leave! In the hospital, we residents and interns have the least human rights."
The cousin was eating grapes nearby. When he heard that Zhou Can was rushing back to the provincial capital to work, he couldn't help but express his feelings.
"That's true! Maybe it will get better after you become a regular employee!"
Zhou Can smiled and agreed with his point of view.
"I asked for leave today to come to my second uncle's house. If my teacher didn't particularly appreciate me, he would definitely not approve my leave. I talked for a long time before he agreed to let me take a day off. Sigh, the life of a trainee is really hard."
Although my cousin was complaining, he was actually showing off that he was highly valued and had a special status in the hospital.
Zhou Can understood the guy's hidden meaning as soon as he heard it, and curled the corner of his mouth.
My aunt and uncle were particularly concerned about their reputation, and this "fine tradition" was perfectly inherited by their two children.
It is said that the less you have, the more you want to show off.
Zhou Can had just casually said that he was going back to the provincial capital to work after dinner, but his cousin heard a different kind of superiority in his words. Human emotions are so interesting.
When some sensitive G-spots in the heart are touched, a strong resonance will occur.
"My Shangfu, he just doesn't understand how precious his current job is. The Provincial Children's Hospital is a large provincial hospital. How many people are trying their best to get a job there but can't find one! His instructor is the favorite disciple of Wei Zhengru, a top expert at the Provincial Children's Hospital. He thinks highly of my Shangfu and has visited our home several times. He also promised us that he would train Shangfu well and that he would start taking him into the operating room to perform surgeries after he completes his training."
"What a great job opportunity! If it were our elders, we would have worked and studied very hard! But he asked for leave when he heard that we were going to visit my second uncle's house, saying that he missed my second uncle's family."
My aunt's words once again put my cousin in the spotlight.
My cousin Zhou Hai works in the health system and is a deputy section chief, so he has some experience.
When I heard that my cousin had a relationship with the top expert Wei Zhengru, I thought that he was Wei Zhengru's apprentice.
He immediately stared at his cousin Chen Shangfu with shining eyes, "Hey, Shangfu, I really can't believe you've done so well! Professor Wei Zhengru's name is well-known, he's a pediatric special needs expert, and he's a golden signboard of the Provincial Children's Hospital. You're now studying with his favorite disciple, and you're highly valued by your instructor. As long as you grasp the opportunity, you'll definitely have a bright future. Who knows, in 20 or 30 years, you'll become a special needs pediatric expert!"
Although what Zhou Hai said was a bit exaggerated, his cousin Chen Shangfu's future is indeed bright.
The only variable is whether I have passed the medical license exam. After the two-year training, can I continue to work at the Provincial Children's Hospital?
"Shangfu, did you hear what your cousin said? Your cousin is now an official in the health system. Even he said so, so your future will definitely be good. You must work hard. Once you get through the current training period, there will be a smooth road ahead."
My uncle is very concerned about his son's career.
Maybe from some perspectives, my uncle is an ungrateful and selfish person, but from the perspective of a father, my uncle is definitely a competent and excellent father.
It is already very good to raise both of my children into graduate students and guide them to find a promising job.
"I understand. I asked for leave this time just to visit my second uncle. After I get a permanent job, I will be even busier. I'm afraid I can only visit my second and first uncles !"
My cousin played the family card.
To put it nicely, it was nothing more than hearing that Zhou Can's family's debt crisis had been resolved, so my aunt and uncle took this opportunity to bring their children over to visit and repair the relationship between the two families.
If the son and daughter are doing well, bringing them along will not only bring more face, but will also increase the status of the uncle's family.
Their wishful thinking is very clever!
In today's society, money is king.
Director Zhou is the richest among the three siblings. When the eldest brother and the third sister encountered financial crisis, the first person they thought of for help was Director Zhou.
When Zhou Can's family was in trouble, only his uncle's family lent a helping hand, while his third aunt's family played tricks on him.
If I don't repair the relationship, I will be too embarrassed to ask Director Zhou for money in the future.
"In fact, my work is also very busy. I am at a critical moment in my transition to the position of head nurse. It is best not to take leave if I can. But when I think of the love my second uncle and aunt, my eldest uncle and aunt, and my cousin showed me when I was a child, I feel that family affection is the most important. I decisively asked for leave from our head nurse and came with her."
My cousin Chen Shangmei is even more talkative.
Zhou Can, a grown man, had pregnancy reactions after hearing those disgusting words.
"Haha, Shang Mei used to have pigtails, but now she's almost the head nurse of a hospital! Sanmei's two children are both very good."
My uncle smiled in an especially kind manner.
In the eyes of elders, watching the younger generations become successful is the most gratifying thing.
"You two have grown up and have a good job, which is great! As for me and your uncle, it would be nice if you can come visit us during the Chinese New Year. After all, career is the most important thing!"
Director Zhou has high hopes for these younger generations.
I hope they can be successful in their careers.
"Let's go, let's go to the hotel and eat first, and then we can talk while we eat!"
Mom stood at the door urging.
What she cares most about is definitely her son and future daughter-in-law. She is afraid that eating too late will delay her son and daughter-in-law's work.
There were more than ten of them, and they looked very grand after walking out of the villa hall.
"I'll drive ahead and lead the way. The Little Sheep Restaurant at No. 11 Wenyi Street has some really good specialty dishes. This is Qianqian's first time visiting our home, so we have to ask her to try some of our county's specialty food."
Mom walked towards her car.
This white Audi is a mid-range luxury car and is not bad.
"Honey, I won't drive. I'll take your car!"
Director Zhou walked towards his wife's Audi.
The couple got in the car and drove out quickly.
"Son, go to the back and close the door."
"no problem!"
Zhou Can agreed.
My aunt and uncle's families all looked at the BMW.
"Xiaocan, is this BMW yours?"
"Aunt asked."
It is undeniable that a BMW worth hundreds of thousands of dollars is just a means of transportation in Zhou Can's eyes, but for an ordinary wealthy family like his aunt's, it is still a pretty good luxury car.
Even though she drove a Cadillac to her family, they actually knew what was going on.
This old second-hand luxury car can only fool ordinary people even if it is beaten up. When it meets a real rich person, its foundation is very weak.
"This is my girlfriend's car! I live in the hospital dormitory, which is very close to work. I walk to work every day."
Zhou Can said honestly.
"What does your girlfriend do for a living? She must come from a good family to be able to afford such a nice BMW."
My cousin was somewhat envious.
She is about the same age as Su Qianqian, but her financial strength is far inferior.
She couldn't help but curiously ask about Su Qianqian's work and family background.
"My family is just an ordinary rural family, and I usually just sing." Su Qianqian treated Zhou Can's relatives very sincerely, without hiding anything.
"Ah...Oh! You're a good singer. I dreamed of becoming a singer when I was a child. Unfortunately, I'm tone-deaf, so I ended up studying medicine and becoming a nurse." My cousin has a strong ability to respond.
After being slightly stunned, he immediately and skillfully resolved Su Qianqian's embarrassment.
"My cousin must have sponsored a lot of money! He loves his girlfriend so much, no wonder he can win her heart!" She smiled and hinted at Zhou Can.
According to her, a car worth hundreds of thousands of dollars is really unaffordable for an ordinary singer.
Zhou Can's family is rich, so it must be Zhou Can who provided financial support.
"I did want to sponsor it, but Qianqian wouldn't let me. She bought all this with her own money." Zhou Can quickly clarified.
We must not let these relatives mistakenly think that Qianqian is a gold-digger who relies on men for support.
All he could do was to prevent his girlfriend from suffering any injustice.
"My job is singing... My name is Qianqian! Wait, I think I've seen you on the Internet. Could you be the innocent singing queen Su Qianqian who has become popular all over the country recently?"
My cousin Chen Shangfu is an unmarried young man who pays special attention to beautiful girls.
The first time he saw Su Qianqian, he felt that she looked familiar.
But I never thought of her as a big star.
After all, the images and videos you see on the Internet are carefully shot by professional teams and are somewhat different from real people.
Uncle, aunt and others were also extremely shocked to hear that Zhou Can’s girlfriend might be a singing queen.
"I don't deserve the title of pure singing queen. I should be the Su Qianqian you mentioned." Su Qianqian seemed calm and generous.
"Oh my god, you really are the singing queen Su Qianqian, so shocking! No wonder you are so beautiful and have such a noble and moving temperament!"
At this moment, everyone automatically ignored Su Qianqian's rural background.
With her current fame, it doesn't matter where she was born.
“I’ve heard your songs, and I really like many of them. They are very healing to the soul. Can you sign one for me later?” Cousin Chen Shangfu didn’t have any paper or pen, so he could only buy some later.
I didn’t expect that he was also a fan of Su Qianqian.
"Sure, no problem at all."
Su Qianqian agreed readily.
"It's incredible. My cousin's girlfriend is actually a female singer. No wonder she can drive such a nice car!" The cousin has recovered from her shock. When she looks at Su Qianqian, it's like looking at a moving bank.
"Oh, look at our poor eyesight. We didn't even realize that Qianqian is a female singer. Qianqian, you can come to your aunt's house when have time. We also live in the provincial capital."
My aunt slapped her forehead and leaned forward to warm herself up.
His attitude towards Su Qianqian was more than ten times more enthusiastic.
"Yes, yes, Miss Qianqian can come to our house when you are free. If you need our help, you can always call me." My uncle is the king in the eyes of snobs.
Having discovered a mobile bank, he naturally didn't want to let it go and wanted to hold on to Su Qianqian like an octopus.
"Okay, okay, thank you. I will definitely visit my aunt and her family when I have time."
Su Qianqian seemed very relaxed in dealing with this situation.
