My Side Job is a Trader

On the second day of the Lunar New Year, according to traditional customs, Zhang Xin and Li Xueer took their two babies and followed Li Shengcai and his wife to Xichuan to visit relatives for the New Year.

The remaining Zhang Boyu, his wife and Zhang Miao drove Zhang Xin's Mercedes-Benz G back to his hometown in Hanyue City to pay New Year's greetings to Zhang Xin's grandma.

As for Zhang Xin, he would not bring his wife and son back until all his natal relatives had finished their New Year greetings.

Fortunately, Chinese New Year is usually spent with relatives who are relatively close, so in just two days, Zhang Xin visited Li Xueer's two uncles and two uncles. As for other relatives who are not so close, there is no need to come to pay New Year's greetings, only to say hello when they meet, which is similar to the customs in Hanyue.

Zhang Xin's generous actions naturally won everyone's favor. Everyone praised Li Xue'er's good life, catching a wealthy son-in-law, and earning enough face for Li Shengcai and his wife.

The relatives of the mother's family have passed by, so naturally they have to return to the in-law's house.

Zhang Xin's family doesn't have many close relatives, only three uncles and one aunt are relatives on He Cuizhen's side. As for the relatives on father Zhang Boyu's side, except for grandma who needs to visit, the others only move around for weddings and funerals. Generally, they are not willing to communicate during the holidays.

When Zhang Xin arrived at his uncle's house, everyone was already looking forward to it. After all, Zhang Boyu and his wife were on the outpost. They had already received the news, so they had already prepared red date tea. This is the custom here to receive distinguished guests during the Chinese New Year.

The arrival of Zhang Xin's family of four immediately became the center of everyone's attention. The topic that relatives usually cared about the most was nothing to Zhang Xin. A few aunts with low education levels had no choice but to tease the two babies.

It has been half a year since they were born, and the two little ones have already passed the lethargy stage. Now they spend most of their time with their eyes wide open, looking at things around them curiously, especially when visiting relatives, they see many strangers , all showed a very curious look, and they looked very cute.

"Oh, the baby is so cute. Its appearance almost combines the best of both parents."

"Let's see, it's really ah, the eyes, nose and mouth are very similar to Xiao Xue'er, and the eyebrows and chin of the two are very similar to Zhang Xin."

Looking at Zhang Qingzheng in his arms, Zhang Xin couldn't tell at all. After all, the baby hasn't grown up yet. It must be nonsense to say that he looks like him now, but Zhang Xin also understands that this is just the most simple way that rural people treat their family. To please, so there is no debunking.

People are like this, as long as they are obviously better than others, then others will fawn on them.

In the past, Zhang Xin's family did not do well. Although He Cuizhen's relatives did not show any obvious intention of looking down on their family, when everyone had a dinner, the person with the highest seniority usually sat in the main seat.

Now that Zhang Xin has come out on top, and has even reached a height that is difficult for everyone to reach, everyone has obviously treated Zhang Xin's family as the most important guests.

During the dinner, Zhang Xin was directly assigned to the main seat.

Zhang Xin is still not quite used to such a change, so he said: "Uncle, you are the oldest among us, and you should be the chief seat. I will always be a junior in front of you. How can a junior be the chief seat reason?"

The uncle said: "Today is different, you are also a rich man now, the richest man in our town, according to the old rules, you are the most valuable guest."

Zhang Xin gave He Cuizhen a look, and He Cuizhen persuaded him in a timely manner: "Brother, what Zhang Xin said is right. Now it's not the same as in the past. Let's sit in the order of seniority, not according to wealth and social status. Don't forget, Zhang Xin was young But who grew up here, without your care, how could he have achieved what he is now? No matter how rich he is, he has to be honest in front of you."

Zhang Xin quickly nodded in agreement, and then arranged several uncles to sit in front, while he himself sat behind Zhang Boyu.

"Zhang Xin is not bad, he did not forget his roots even after he became famous."

Zhang Xin was not humble at all on this point, and said: "Of course, don't forget who gave birth to me. With my mother around, it is impossible for me to become bad."

"Well, this kid Zhang Xin is really capable. He has lived with us since he was a child, and his parents have not been around. He was able to go to university all the way. It is not surprising that he can achieve such a great achievement now. He is really too self-disciplined. , unlike the kid in our family, there is no news yet."

Auntie was touched by the scene, and couldn't help but think of her son Shen Xiansheng, who was supposed to be reunited with everyone, but there has been no news for several years.

Since Zhang Xin is about the same age as his cousin who has been out of touch for several years, the two are often compared by relatives. Zhang Xin has basically surpassed his cousin from childhood to adulthood. place of envy.

After all, she spent a lot of energy on Shen Xiansheng. She almost went to school as a companion, unlike Zhang Xin, who was completely free-range. As a result, her academic performance was better than Shen Xiansheng every year. In the end, as expected, Zhang Xin was admitted to university. Shen Xiansheng came out to join the society after graduating from high school.

"Whatever you look at, it's all your fault. You have to force him to go on a blind date and get married, otherwise why would he run away from home?"

Uncle Shen Shiqing was not to be outdone: "It's not something you've been used to since you were young. Look at Zhang Xin. He hasn't taken care of him since he was a younger sister-in-law. Isn't he still a big boss now?"

As soon as the two talked about Shen Xiansheng, they began to quarrel, and everyone tried to persuade them to fight.

Zhang Xin said: "Cousin should be in Hanyue City, do you want me to ask someone to look for it?"

The aunt asked, "Is that troublesome?"

Zhang Xin replied: "It's not troublesome. I'll find a computer expert at that time. As long as my cousin is still online, I should be able to find him through ip and other methods."

"It's fine, if you find him, tell him that the family will not force him, let him come back quickly."

Zhang Xin readily agreed.

"By the way, Dad, have you been to Grandma's place?"

Zhang Xin asked suddenly.

"Not yet. Let's go together when you come back. This year your mother will also go, and our whole family will go."

Zhang Xin looked at He Cuizhen with some surprise, because according to past practice, He Cuizhen was unwilling to take a step back to grandma's house again.

"What's wrong? I can't go back to my hometown? Although the house has collapsed long ago, it's still at the base. I should go home and have a look."

Zhang Xin could only nod his head in agreement. After all, it was his mother, so of course it meant whatever she said.

He Cuizhen valued face the most, otherwise she wouldn't have stayed in her hometown for so many years, she just didn't want to see the ugly faces of those relatives.

Now that Zhang Xin returned to his hometown in fine clothes, the husband and wife followed suit, so they naturally wanted to show off and tell the villagers that their family has been out for so many years, and now they are finally famous.

Although Zhang Xin didn't want to show off like this, he also understood the grievance in He Cuizhen's heart, so he would naturally support his mother to express her anger.
