It's already the 21st century, and I just found the imperial seal

Chapter 388: Money 1 Stops, Feelings Return to 0

The Maybach stopped in front of a fruit stall and Su Yu got out of the car.

Although he had prepared red envelopes, he still planned to buy some fruit milk for Gu Jie's grandparents.

Gu Jie followed and said, "My grandparents like money. They are happy when you give them money."

Su Yu smiled and said, "It's your first visit, it would look better if you have a gift in your hand."

Gu Jie said no more.

In her heart, she has a certain prejudice against the relatives here, including her grandparents.

Actually, it’s not prejudice, it’s just that I have an opinion and I don’t like it.

If she wasn't getting married and had to invite these relatives, she wouldn't want to come.

I bought some fruit milk and some gift boxes.

In addition to Gu Jie's grandparents, several of Gu Jie's uncles and aunts also got one, filling the trunk to the brim.

These things are not valuable, as long as they save face, it's enough.

Gu Jie is his woman, so he will definitely stand on his woman's side.

The Maybach started again and drove to the other side of the town.

There are rows of newly built buildings here. Although they are only four stories high, they are already the most luxurious buildings in this town.

The name of the town is Wuyang Town. In recent years, many people have made a fortune outside and came back here to buy land and build houses, which can be regarded as returning home in glory.

Su Yu drove the Maybach to a two-story building. The door of the building was closed. In the yard, there was a tied black dog, staring at people hungrily and making a "woohoo" sound from its mouth.

Seeing the black dog, Gu Jie frowned slightly, "That dog is very fierce and wants to bite people."

Su Yu took a glance and his eyes fixed. The black dog seemed to have seen something scary and immediately ran back to its den with its tail between its legs.

The five senses of animals are more sensitive than those of humans. Su Yu only used the Wizard's Heart to intimidate it slightly and it was scared to death.

Because it understands that the human in front of it can easily kill it!

"Baba-"

I honked the horn twice, but the door of the two-story building did not open. Instead, a man and a woman walked over.

Gu Jie whispered to her boyfriend, "It's my second uncle and second mother!"

As she spoke, she opened the car door and got out, forcing a smile on her face, "Second Uncle, Second Mother!"

"Gu Jie!"

Second uncle smiled and said, "Your mother called a few days ago and said that you were getting married soon and would come over to invite us in person!"

Gu Jie nodded, "Where's my cousin?"

"Knew you were coming."

The second uncle said, "He went to pick up his girlfriend and will be here soon."

Su Yu also got out of the car at this time, took the initiative to open the cigarette box and smoke, "Second Uncle, Second Mother!"

Gu Jie helped introduce, "This is my boyfriend Su Yu."

The second uncle took the cigarette with a smile and said, "You look young and energetic. What does your family do?"

Su Yu answered truthfully: "My family runs a supermarket."

“It’s good to open a supermarket!”

The second uncle glanced at the Maybach. The three-pointed star logo was like a silver blade piercing the sky with a cold light. "Your car is good, a Mercedes-Benz!"

Su Yu smiled and said, "This car is Gu Jie's dowry. It will be the main wedding car when we get married."

"The fourth son's wife is still rich."

The second uncle looked envious and said, "The Mercedes-Benz is given to us as a gift."

"She's from a big city, doing big business, so of course she's rich."

Er Niang echoed, "My family has to take out a mortgage to buy a Geely."

Su Yu was too lazy to respond to these two weirdos. He turned to look at Gu Jie, "Are your grandparents not at home?"

Gu Jie hesitated and said, "My mom called them and said I'm coming over today. I should be home, right?"

The second uncle laughed and said, "They both have poor hearing and usually like to keep the door closed. If you knock hard on the door, they will hear it."

Gu Jie went up and knocked on the door, "Ding ding ding—"

After a few seconds, someone inside answered, "Who is it?"

Gu Jie shouted: "Grandpa, it's me!"

"Click——"

A few seconds later, the security door was opened from the inside, and a thin old man with completely white hair came out, "Gu Jie is here, where is your boyfriend?"

Su Yu took two steps forward and handed over two cigarettes, "Grandpa, my name is Su Yu."

Grandpa smiled and nodded, then waved his hand, "I don't smoke this."

Gu Jie explained: "My grandfather smoked leaf tobacco."

Su Yu nodded and took down the gifts prepared in the car.

The grandfather looked at his second son and said, "Call them and ask them to come over and have dinner at my place tonight."

The second uncle took a puff of his cigarette and said, "I'll call them right away."

He looked at the gifts, five in total.

In addition to some cheap and worthless items, there were also two bottles of Moutai and two packs of Zhonghua cigarettes.

Not bad, knows some etiquette.

While Second Uncle went to make a phone call, Second Mother was busy with the gifts.

She doesn't understand Moutai and Zhonghua, and is more concerned about edible things.

Just looking at Wu Xiaoxia who was helping to pack up, she couldn't help but ask Gu Jie, "Is she your mother-in-law?"

Knowing that Er Niang couldn't speak, Gu Jie suppressed her disgust and explained, "Sister Wu is my family's nanny. I'm pregnant, so she came to take care of me."

"You're just too squeamish."

When she heard that it was a nanny, Er Niang looked at Wu Xiaoxia carefully and said, "When I was pregnant, didn't I still work in the fields?"

Gu Jie was so angry that she didn't bother to pay attention. She walked over to her boyfriend who was talking to her grandparents and hugged his arm for comfort.

Smiling and patting the back of Hongniang's hand, Su Yu whispered in her ear, "I'll help you vent your anger later."

In an unfamiliar environment, he was keeping an eye on all directions and listening carefully, so naturally he heard what Er Niang said.

Bullying his woman?
Doesn’t this deserve a beating?
But before he could find the other person, Er Niang came over and said, "Gu Jie, it's getting late. Let your nanny cook."

Gu Jie glanced at her cell phone. It was two o'clock in the afternoon.

The city of Ba is different from the city of Furong, where people only eat two meals a day.

First meal, 10am.

Second meal, 5pm.

If there are a lot of people, now is the time to cook.

But is her nanny here to cook?
But just as she was about to speak, Su Yu stopped her and took over the conversation, "Second Mother, Sister Wu is here to take care of Gu Jie, not to cook."

"The babysitter doesn't cook?"

Er Niang frowned slightly, "What kind of nanny is that?"

Su Yu smiled and said, "You will know when you go to a big city."

Er Niang was slightly stunned.

Will you know if you go to a big city?

Does this mean she's a country bumpkin?
"Second Mother, times have changed."

Su Yu showed a playful look on his face, "It's not the 1980s or 1990s anymore. You can't just endure the hardship."

“Why do we work so hard to earn money?”

“It’s all for the sake of enjoying life better!”

"You have lived in the countryside all your life and have never been out, so it's normal that you don't know."

"When you go to Furong City, I will arrange for you to stay in a five-star hotel so that you can see the world."

I didn't mean to be so blunt and show off.

But Gu Jie and other relatives who had never seen the world obviously did not take the two young people seriously.

In that case, he used the most vulgar means to slap him in the face.

High and mighty, looking down on others!
This trick worked very well. Although Er Niang felt very uncomfortable, she shut her mouth obediently.

She knew that Gu Jie's family was rich.

If she had said those words in front of Song Wanqing, she would definitely not dare to say them.

But if it was just her niece Gu Jie, she would inevitably make some sarcastic remarks because her son was also getting married next year and he had asked Song Wanqing to borrow money to buy a house last time, but she refused.

This made her feel depressed, and when she saw Gu Jie today, she wanted to let out all that anger.

It’s just that Gu Jie’s boyfriend speaks in a rather unruly way and doesn’t seem like a good person?
After a while, Gu Jie's other uncles also arrived.

Their whole family was there with them.

Gu Jie's grandparents gave birth to seven children, five boys and two girls.

Gu Jie's uncles also have many children.

The sons had grandchildren, the grandchildren had sons, and the sons and grandchildren had grandchildren, and there were more than twenty people in the whole family.

They haven't all come back yet, there are still many working outside.

If the whole family were to gather, there would be more than fifty people.

This is how fast humans reproduce.

So terrifying.

Gu Jie knew all the legitimate relatives, but she couldn't tell the difference between her married sisters-in-law and the children born to her.

Although they couldn't tell them apart, they all called her auntie, and she took out the candies she had prepared and shared them with the children.

Su Yu was not stingy either. He gave a big red envelope of 600 yuan to everyone who called him uncle.

Taking advantage of the excitement, he also distributed the gifts he bought to several uncles.

Normally, he should have gone to their house in person with gifts and told these elders about his marriage to Gu Jie.

It’s just that Su Yu doesn’t have a good impression of these relatives who are ignorant and short-sighted.

Keep all the rules simple and treat yourself as the kind of dandy boy who only knows how to eat, drink and have fun and has nothing but a good-looking appearance.

Just as Su Yu thought, relatives like Gu Jie bully the weak and fear the strong.

Although he was a little rude, they felt it was reasonable.

Rich people should have temper.

He was arrogant and looked down on them, his poor relatives.

After they received the gifts, Su Yu took out the invitation and put it in a dark red wooden box.

The box is about the same size as a mooncake box, covered with various cloud patterns and engraved with the eight words "A happy marriage for a hundred years, dragon and phoenix present auspiciousness".

This was specially prepared by Song Wanqing.

My mother-in-law spent a lot of time and effort on this box alone, and it is worth nearly three thousand yuan.

In addition to the formal invitation informing guests of the wedding date, there are also red envelopes, chocolates, small cakes, as well as wedding candies and cigarettes.

There was 1,200 yuan in the red envelope, which was travel expenses for the guest.

The rest of the small gifts are thank-you gifts, all of which are high-end brands.

The chocolate is Godiva, the cakes are Maxim’s, and the candies are Dove.

Of course, for these people, who have never seen the world, they probably only know Dove.

In addition, Su Yu gave each family a red envelope of 12,000 yuan, which could be considered a meeting gift when he visited them for the first time.

With twelve thousand, nothing else matters.

He and Gu Jie immediately became guests of honor, and everyone spoke flattering words to them.

People are so realistic.

Gu Jie has no feelings for them.

Do they have feelings for Gu Jie?
Of course there is affection!
But this relationship needs money to maintain.

Once money stops, feelings return to zero.

After distributing the gifts he brought, Su Yu was too lazy to talk to these people. He took a bench and went to the yard to bask in the sun while playing with his mobile phone.

Gu Jie also followed suit and sat down next to her boyfriend.

Wu Xiaoxia wanted to help, but was stopped by Su Yu.

She hired her own nanny.

As the saying goes, there is only a seventh-rank official in front of the prime minister, let alone him as the emperor.

Now that you are here, you have to show off a little.

Although Su Yu acted aloof, those people had just gained benefits, so it was not easy for them to say much.

Just went to help with the cooking, everyone muttered to themselves.

Su Yu didn't need to listen, he knew the topic would definitely be about him and Gu Jie.

But it doesn’t matter.

It is estimated that he will only see these relatives a few times in his life.

From now on, let the mother-in-law Song Wanqing deal with it.

But before he could stop talking for a while, a man in his thirties came over and offered him a cigarette, "Brother-in-law, have a smoke."

Su Yu waved his hand gently, "Gu Jie is pregnant, I have already given up."

Gu Jie called out politely, "Second Brother."

This is the second son of his uncle, who happens to be at home today.

"Hi--"

Gu Peng patted his mouth lightly and said with a smile: "I almost forgot that Xiao Jie is pregnant."

As he said that, he put the cigarette in his hand back.

Focusing his eyes on the Maybach not far away, he said enviously, "Xiao Jie, I heard that this car is your dowry?"

He knew Maybach.

I just scanned it with my mobile phone and am more certain that this is the latest model of Maybach S680.

Gu Jie nodded, "I asked for it last month."

Gu Peng asked: "How much?"

Gu Jie glanced at her man, "It's over 4 million."

Su Yu explained: "A lot of things have been added to the interior, so the price is much more expensive than other cars of the same type."

This car is the top of the line, and my mother-in-law spent a lot of money on it.

After all, it is my daughter's dowry, representing her face, so it must be the best.

Gu Peng licked his lips gently, full of envy for his cousin.

We all have the surname Gu, so why is there such a big difference?
If his father had gone to Furong City to try his luck, even if he couldn't have become as successful as Fourth Aunt Song Wanqing and earned billions, at least he would have been better off than he is now, right?

Thinking of the prosperity of Furong City, he couldn't help but want to go and try his luck.

"Brother-in-law, your family runs a supermarket."

"Do you need anyone else?"

Su Yu smiled and said, "My supermarket is not big, there are only three employees in total, so we don't need anyone for the time being."

Gu Peng was stunned. "Only three employees?"

"correct."

Su Yu nodded, "I told you, the supermarket is not big."

Gu Peng was a little embarrassed, "I thought you were being modest."

"Humble about what?"

Su Yu smiled and shook his head, "I am with Gu Jie, the car is hers, and the villa is also hers."

Gu Peng looked at his cousin and said, "You are the only one in your family. It's normal for you to recruit a live-in son-in-law to take over your mother's business."

He is envious!

My cousin Gu Jie is beautiful and rich.

"What do you mean by live-in son-in-law?"

Gu Jie wanted to laugh in her heart, but she held it back and defended her boyfriend, "We bought the villa together, and he gave me a Panamera worth more than two million yuan."

"My parents-in-law do run a small supermarket, but they also opened a restaurant chain through their own hard work and are much richer than my mother."

"what?"

Gu Peng was stunned again, his expression was very awkward, he didn't know where to put his hands, "I thought..."

"My second uncle asked me what my family does, and I said my family runs a supermarket."

Su Yu smiled and said, "It's been open for almost 20 years. It's a legitimate family business!"

Gu Peng nodded in agreement instinctively, feeling that the city was full of tricks and that his brother-in-law was not a good person!
