Chapter 419 Preferring boys over girls

When going to Feng's house with Yan Xin, Bai Xiaoling asked him about Xiao Shiyu:

"Brother, what did the model say when she held your hand in the supermarket today?"

Yan Xin said: "Children should not ask about adults' matters."

Bai Xiaoling was unhappy and pouted: "I'm only two years younger than you and only a few months younger than Sister Xi. I'm not a child anymore, okay?"

"You are my sister," Yan Xin said, "in my heart, you will always be a child."

Bai Xiaoling thought to herself: "This is quite endearing, but why do I feel like I am avoiding my question?"

She now dares to act a little bit in front of Yan Xin, but she knows the right amount, and it doesn't matter if she acts a little bit occasionally, and she seems to regard the other person as one of her own family members.

But if you don’t have a sense of boundaries, and you still have to ask questions even though you know that others don’t want to ask them, then you don’t treat yourself as an outsider, and you don’t understand your true position, which will only make you annoying.

Now seeing that Yan Xin didn't mean what he meant, although I felt a little unhappy in my heart, I could only leave it at that.

He just pouted and said: "I always treat people like children..."

I stopped asking questions, but I was still curious:

"Then what on earth did the woman say when she held his hand?"

It was clear that the man in front of her had the answer, but he didn't say it, which made her feel so uncomfortable - the kind of discomfort that felt like a hundred claws scratching her heart.

I thought to myself: "I still have to keep an eye on him in the future and don't let him be seduced by those vixens."

But she is a little depressed - her identity is just Yan Xin's sister. If she really finds out that a woman with evil intentions is approaching Yan Xin, what reason should she use to stop her?

After much deliberation, I still thought of Feng Xi:

"Although I have no reason to stop him, I can tell Feng Xi that Feng Xi is his girlfriend, so she is qualified to talk about these things."

When I thought about it, I realized that I and Feng Xi were in the same camp.

Although they are love rivals, once a foreign enemy invades, Feng Xi is her most trustworthy helper.

They did not ride bicycles there, mainly because they were afraid that it would be dark when they came back and they would not be able to ride bicycles back. Anyway, it was only a small distance, so they simply walked there.

Yan Xin was holding a pair of wine in his hand, which was a gift for the Feng family.

It’s a bit rude to go to someone’s house for dinner during the Chinese New Year and not bring anything with you.

Yan Xin is also a very particular person now, so of course he can't be so rude.

Bai Xiaoling carried a flashlight in her pocket, which she prepared to use to light her way when she got home late.

Rural areas are in such trouble now. There are no street lights and it is pitch dark at night.

Should we say that rural areas are so troublesome now? In Yan Xin's memory, even more than ten years later, there are still no street lights on the roads, only cement roads have been built, and flashlights are still needed to illuminate the roads at night.

Not to mention now, it is still a dirt road with many potholes and bumps. It is easy to fall down if you are not careful at night.

When they arrived at Feng's house, it was only around four o'clock in the afternoon.

Before she reached the door of her house, Bai Xiaoling shouted loudly:

"Is Sister Xi here? My brother and I are here!"

"Here!"

Feng Xi's voice came from inside the room.

Then he saw her walking out of the main room wearing a thick down jacket. She saw the two of them walking towards them with a smile on her face:

"Xiao Ling, Yan Xin, you are here."

She first called Bai Xiaoling because she wanted to clarify her relationship with Yan Xin in front of outsiders and show that Bai Xiaoling was the one with whom she had a better relationship.

After all, Bai Xiaoling works in her company, and everyone in the village knows this.

After Feng Xi came out, her mother also came out. When she saw Yan Xin, her face was also full of smiles and she looked very enthusiastic:

"Yan Xin, you're here, why did you bring wine?"

Yan Xin lifted the pair of drinks in his hand and said with a smile: "I knew Uncle Feng liked drinking, so I brought a pair over."

"You kid is too outspoken." Mother Feng said happily.

I looked at the brand and thought to myself: "This pair of wines are advertised so fiercely on TV, so they cost a few hundred dollars, right? My in-laws are coming over, and it's pretty respectable to have such a wine reception. I don't have to spend that much on my own."

Buy it with more money.”

Feng Xi went to the supermarket and brought a few bottles of wine, which cost several hundred yuan a piece, but she didn't know how many days the family would stay. These bottles of wine might not be enough, and they would have to buy more wine by then.

Cheap wine seems a bit disrespectful to the future in-laws, while expensive wine seems a bit reluctant to part with.

Yan Xin sent this pair of wines, which were just in use. He was able to save some money, so he was naturally happy.

Looking at Yan Xin, he was quite satisfied.

This is his son's noble person.

It's just that when she sees Yan Xin satisfied, Yan Xin can't help but think of the humiliation he suffered in his previous life when he sees her, which makes him feel a little uncomfortable.

For Feng Xi's sake, he didn't have to show it, but it was impossible for him to have a good impression.

I have some emotions in my heart: "People nowadays have two faces. If they could treat me like this in my previous life, how could there be so many unpleasant things?"

The two of them were welcomed into the Feng family hall. There were several guests in the room, warming themselves around a stove and playing a table of mahjong.

Yan Xin recognized that they were Feng Xi's uncles, but none of them came. Except for her uncle's family, both of them came, and the rest only had one representative from each family.

The Feng family has several families in the village, which is why Feng Chen dares to open up his own company - in this village, the Feng family only needs to not bully others, and no one else can bully them.

Now Feng Chen's future father-in-law and his family are coming. Of course, these relatives also want to come over to join in the fun and express the Feng family's attention.

Yan Xin knew these people, but he didn't like them either - in his previous life, he was looked down upon by Feng Xi's parents, and also looked down upon by these elders.

It’s not surprising that people tend to help relatives but not family members.

It's just that although I understand this, when I think of the anger I received in my previous life, I can't feel good towards these people.

There is nothing I can do now. For Feng Xi's sake, I can only smile at each other, pretend not to know each other, wait for Feng Xi to introduce them, and then say hello.

Fortunately, he is not as poor as he was in his previous life. He is doing quite well in this life. He is considered one of the best among the young people in the village. His home also has the most beautiful house in the village, one of many.

The object of envy and jealousy.

When he came here today, those people did not discriminate against him like they did in the previous life. They all smiled and acted very enthusiastic.

This also made Yan Xin feel a little emotional - men still have to be rich.

Without money, no one looks down on you.

With money, no one dares to look down on you.

At this time, Feng Chen hadn't come back yet, but he had spoken to Feng Xi on the phone half an hour ago, and he was about to arrive in the city at that time.

I expect to arrive home around five o'clock.

The three of them took turns driving, and the speed was quite fast.

After Yan Xin came over, someone asked him if he wanted to play mahjong. If he wanted to play mahjong, he would give up his seat to him, but he refused.

He doesn't know how to play mahjong, and he doesn't want to play cards with these people.

Just sitting by the stove, warming themselves up and chatting, Feng Xi also brought over a fruit plate with melon seeds, peanuts and candies and fruits.

In front of so many people, Feng Xi was embarrassed to have too much communication with Yan Xin, so she sat next to Bai Xiaoling and chatted with Bai Xiaoling.

Occasionally, his eyes would collide with Yan Xin's, but they would always turn a blind eye, as if they were not familiar with each other.

This made Yan Xin quite embarrassed.

Except for Feng Xi and Bai Xiaoling, the others are all uncles and aunts, and they have no common language when chatting.

But just sitting here warming up by the fire without saying anything would be even more embarrassing.

He had no choice but to eat melon seeds and peanuts while chatting with the uncles and aunts he hated in his previous life.

With snacks to gag on, the conversation is not so awkward.

Those people were quite polite to him, that is, they asked him about his work, whether he had a girlfriend, and how Feng Chen was doing there - after all, his Feng Chen worked in Yangcheng.

When asked about Yan Xin's partner, Feng Xi didn't even look there, but his ears were already perked up, wanting to hear what Yan Xin had to say.

Yan Xin knew that Feng Xi didn't want to announce the relationship between the two people now, and he naturally didn't want to announce it either. He could only say perfunctorily to such a question:

"There is one person we are talking about, but we have not reached the point of discussing marriage yet. After all, we are still young. We will talk about it in two years."

Someone else asked him about his situation, what he did, and where he was from.

Yan Xin can only speak according to Feng Xi's standards:

"Well, she's from our side too. She's studying abroad and doesn't have a job yet."

At most, this can only be said, and I am unwilling to reveal any more details.

But people don't really care about whether he has a partner, or they just don't have a topic, so they find a topic to talk about.

——Many young people complain that when they go home to visit relatives during the Chinese New Year, they will encounter some problems about marriage, children and salary, which they find very annoying and infringing on their private domain.

In fact, sometimes people really don't care that much about your stuff. They just don't have a topic. You need to find a topic to talk about to avoid an awkward atmosphere.

Talking about these things is to express your concern, but it does not mean that you really care.

Some worries are actually unnecessary.

No one will remember what I really said.

What they really care about is how Feng Chen is doing there.

It's just that they don't really believe Feng Chen's unilateral statement, and they hope to get some reliable information from a third party, Yan Xin.

Even his parents are like this - they don't know what kind of situation their son is in. They only know that he has opened a company and is doing well.

But when it comes to money, he said he still owes a lot of money.

This made them a little confused, not knowing what the situation was like.

Is it because the company's performance is not good and Feng Chen is bragging in front of his fellow villagers to maintain face?

Or is the company doing very well and making a lot of money, but Feng Chen doesn’t want his relatives and friends to know and deliberately says he lost money?

Not even his parents can be sure, let alone others.

Yan Xin didn't know what Feng Chen's tone of voice was like, and was a little worried that he accidentally said the wrong thing.

I can only say this vaguely based on the real situation:

"Although he and I are both in Yangcheng, Yangcheng is very big and we are not in the same industry, so I don't know much about the specifics of his company. I just know that his business is doing pretty well and there seems to be a lot of business.

Yes, I seem a bit overwhelmed."

"Then why does he still say that he owes money? If the business is good, he should make a lot of money!" Feng Chen's cousin was very confused.

"Ow money?" Yan Xin smiled, "You will definitely owe money when you open a company. How many people who start a company use all their own money to do it? If this is the case, most people will not be able to open a company. That's right.

Borrow money from the bank to start a company, so that you can develop quickly and make yourself bigger."

Feng Xi said from the side: "It's all like this, and I'm like this too. Modern businessmen all borrow money to make money. In the early stages of starting a business, it's normal to owe money."

This can be regarded as supporting evidence for Yan Xin’s words.

Feng's mother was a little worried: "Then he won't owe a lot of money, right? He should be able to pay it back, right?"

Yan Xin comforted her: "Don't worry about this. His debt situation is good. As long as he wants to pay it back, he can definitely pay it off. But now he is expanding the company's scale. He only wants to pay back the money and enjoy himself. Then the company will

It’s a pity that we can’t do it.”

"Approximately how much is owed?" Feng's mother asked.

It's hard to say this about Yan Xin.

Of course he knew the specific number, but he didn't know if Feng Chen wanted to publish this specific number.

He couldn't make up his own mind, shook his head and said with a smile: "I don't know the specific number, but I heard him say that those arrears will not put pressure on him, so you can rest assured."

Although he said this, Feng's mother was not at ease.

People in rural areas all come from poverty and are very sensitive to things like owing money.

She asked Feng Xi again: "Don't you also owe a lot of money to the bank?"

Feng Xi said expressionlessly: "I owe a little, but I still have to pay."

"How much is owed?" Feng's mother asked.

Feng Xi was a little unhappy: "You won't help me pay it back, why are you asking? This is a loan I made in the name of the company, and the responsibility falls on me. Don't worry, it won't be a drag.

your."

"Why do you, a child, talk like this? I was worried about you." Mother Feng was unhappy.

Feng Xi said expressionlessly: "Thank you, no need."

Mother Feng wanted to get angry, but she didn't dare.

I always feel that my daughter has become different after entering college. She is very disobedient and dares to contradict them.

Think about it, everyone has started a company, and with their wings strong, they can leave as soon as they want, and they don’t have to rely on the three melons and two dates at home to survive.

It would be really not good for them to have a falling out.

I could only endure this tone and turned to complain to my relatives:

"Look...actually I'm just worried about her..."

Those relatives all smiled and persuaded her: "Don't worry, Xiaoxi is a very capable person. She can get into such a good university. She knows what she should and shouldn't do."

This is also because Feng Xi has shown his own strength, and none of them dare to act like their elders in front of such an outstanding niece.

As the saying goes, development is the last word.

Rich bastards of the third generation.

Now that Feng Xi has started her own business, the elders are all dwarfed in front of her. They can only flatter her and dare not offend her - at least in front of her, they can only say good things about her but not bad things about her.

no.

Mother Feng felt very aggrieved.

These past few days I have been feeling aggrieved in front of my daughter, and I can no longer dominate like before.

I also thought that with so many elders coming this time, I could use the face of these elders to suppress this daughter. I didn't expect that my daughter would still be like that, and they wouldn't give her any face in front of the elders.

Seeing these relatives in this state, she knew that no one could be trusted.

The only thing she can hope for is that her precious son Feng Chen can do better in his career, so that he can be the master of the family and suppress the unfilial daughter.

However, this hope is a little bit slim.

Because she felt that this precious son seemed to feel more sorry for his sister than for her as a mother.

I feel bitter in my heart, but I can't express it.

The more I sit, the more suffocated I feel.

Not long after sitting, Feng's father came back with a big grass carp, and she took this opportunity to go to the kitchen and start preparing for today's dinner.

Feng Xi did not go over. He sat quietly next to Bai Xiaoling and chatted with her. He smiled while talking and looked very happy.

Instead, her eldest aunt followed her to help in the kitchen.

When guests came to the house and we had to entertain them, my daughter did not go to the kitchen to help, but asked the guests to help. This was a bit outrageous.

But considering that the daughter is a student at a top domestic university and a young entrepreneur, everyone thinks this is quite reasonable.

Through such a small confrontation, Yan Xin could see the change in Feng Xi's status at home.

The wealth level has changed, the mentality has changed, and the status has also changed.

There is still a little bump in the road, probably because her parents have not really accepted the fact that she has a successful career, and they have not accepted the reality that their daughter can no longer be controlled.

In time, when they accept the reality, such a small bump in the road today will probably not exist, and then they will no longer have to worry about Feng Xi being bullied in this family.

While he was warming up and chatting, his cell phone suddenly coughed and a QQ message was sent.

I picked up my phone and saw that it was sent by Feng Chen:

"I've arrived in our town, you can come to my house now."

Yan Xin smiled, shook his head, and replied: "I have been at your house for more than half an hour."

Feng Chen: "I'll be there soon."

Putting down the phone, Yan Xin said: "They have arrived in the town and will arrive soon."

When he said this, someone playing mahjong on the other side suggested:

"Xiaochen is coming soon. Why don't we stop playing this game? Otherwise, when people come, we still sit here and play mahjong. It seems a bit rude."

The person who said this probably doesn't have very good cards, so I want to continue.

But some people disagreed: "We've just arrived in town, and we won't arrive for at least ten or twenty minutes. We can finish this game, so we just have to go faster."

Only ten minutes later, a loudspeaker was heard outside. Feng Xi was the first to stand up: "Isn't my brother back?"

I walked out of the gate, looked around, and then shouted in surprise: "Brother, you are back!"

By this time, the mahjong table had been moved away, and everyone stood up and walked out to greet him.

In the kitchen, the Feng family's parents, who were preparing dinner, also heard the noise outside, stopped what they were doing and walked out.

All of a sudden, about ten people came out to welcome Feng Chen and his future father-in-law and his family.

Feng Xi had a smile on her face, but she was thinking in her heart: "My son is different, so many people greet him when he comes back. When my daughter comes home, she doesn't care at all."

I feel some imbalance in my heart.

But overall, she was still in a happy mood because her brother was back.

Her imbalance is not directed at her brother, but because she feels her parents are unfair.

As for her brother, she thinks he is very good to her.

Without this brother, there would be nothing worth remembering in this family.

When I saw Feng Chen getting off the car, I went over and gave him a hug:

"Brother, I haven't seen you for a long time."

There was a smile on his face when he said this, but the circles under his eyes were a little red.

Very happy.
