Renting a young, attractive woman to take home for the Chinese New Year infuriates the entire villag

The moment Jiang Chen uttered those words, the air in the room seemed to freeze instantly.

The eldest uncle's hand froze in mid-air, the muscles on his face twitched uncontrollably, and his eyes, which had previously held the air of a kind elder, were now filled with the fire of anger and shame.

"How can that be the same?"

"Everyone says it's better to tear down ten temples than to break up one marriage, yet you're advising my son and daughter-in-law to separate?"

Looking at his appearance, Jiang Chen couldn't help but sigh inwardly.

In the past, he definitely wouldn't have participated in these topics at all.

He has always been unwilling to waste his breath on fools.

Why waste time arguing with idiots when you could play a couple of games?

He knew perfectly well that his uncle and aunt were not good people.

But how many people in this world are truly good?

There's no reason to demand that others meet the standards of a saint.

If you know he's an idiot, and you still argue with him or even provoke him, then you're in the wrong.

What's more, he is his mother's older brother and his maternal grandmother's son.

If I really argue with my uncle, I'll be caught in the middle between my own son and my own brother.

In the past, Jiang Chen would never have stayed here for dinner.

Isn't this just asking for trouble?

The main reason I agreed to stay here is because of the value of sincerity.

There's nothing he can do; Sun Mengjia is his only girlfriend right now, and she's just a rented one. She might run away at any time.

He must accumulate as much sincerity value as possible within the limited time.

You mean going to work?

Can I buy a car while working?

Can I buy a house while working?

But as long as you accumulate ten points of true value, you'll have a house and a car.

But now it's getting harder and harder to earn sincerity points.

At first, a cup of milk tea and a train ticket were all it took to set off, saving money passively and increasing genuine value.

But now, going to KTV doesn't increase your sincerity points anymore.

Especially as he gradually flaunts his wealth in front of Sun Mengjia, it's hard to believe that he can accumulate true value by saving money in the future.

But "protecting oneself" is still quite easy to do.

The young woman has a fiery temper, is straightforward and can't stand being wronged, and doesn't consider the consequences of her actions.

Within a controllable range, giving him a chance to protect himself was the simplest way Jiang Chen could think of to rack up points.

The only problem is that my mother has feelings for my eldest uncle.

There's no need to make your mom hate you just to get a high score.

Therefore, he was waiting for an opportunity that would both anger his uncle and put him in the right.

As for why Sun Mengjia wasn't allowed to take action directly?

First of all, although Sun Mengjia was hired, she was still his nominal girlfriend.

How can you just let her swear like that?

My mom won't blame herself, but she'll definitely take out her anger on Sun Mengjia.

Although Sun Mengjia is not his real girlfriend, there is no reason for her to suffer such injustice for no reason.

Moreover, what he wanted was not to insult people, but to have Sun Mengjia defend him.

Sun Mengjia's sincerity points won't increase if she criticizes too many people in a day, unless it's for her own sake.

Therefore, the eldest uncle has to criticize himself first, and then Sun Mengjia has to start criticizing.

He originally thought it was impossible to finish today, but to his surprise, Sun Mengjia accidentally broke his uncle's defenses.

So, when he saw his uncle slamming his fist on the table, Jiang Chen immediately used sarcastic remarks to draw attention to him.

Sure enough, the eldest uncle immediately looked at Jiang Chen: "How dare you talk to me like that!"

"I'm your uncle, your elder! You think you're above everyone else just because you have a little money?"

"He just got back and he's already buying luxury cars and showing off. Now he even dares to talk back to his elders."

"Is this the kind of manners you learned in the big city? I think you've wasted all your education!"

Upon hearing his uncle say that, Dad's face immediately fell.

However, before he could speak, Jiang Chen stood up and gave him a look to stop him.

She turned to her uncle and said with a smile, "Uncle, calm down, don't slam the table, doesn't your hand hurt?"

Jiang Chen slowly picked up his teacup and said calmly, "How am I being disrespectful to you? I'm doing this for your own good!"

"I think you've just made a mistake. I think what Sun Mengjia said makes a lot of sense."

"We're just explaining the pros and cons to you."

"You're old, yet you still cling to the old-fashioned ideas, thinking that young people should listen to their parents and that marriages should be arranged by their parents and matchmakers."

"But times have changed. Before, you couldn't even live together before marriage, and holding hands on the street was considered indecent. But now? Like you said, Brother Qiang's girlfriend has been living with him for three years already, right? I heard from you that she even spent last year's Chinese New Year at our house."

"That just shows she's not that traditional."

"Why are you so unconventional and disobedient in other matters, yet so insistent on adhering to tradition when it comes to houses, cars, and dowries?"

"Sun Mengjia is trying to persuade you to see her true colors!"

The eldest uncle was so angry that he was trembling all over, and his finger pointing at Jiang Chen was shaking, but after holding it in for a long time, he couldn't utter a complete sentence.

He truly never expected that his nephew, who used to be all smiles and honest, would now be so quick-witted and sharp-tongued.

Let him suffer in silence, unable to express his bitterness.

Jiang Chen's father, who was standing next to him, was stunned. Although he felt that his son's words were a bit impulsive, he felt so happy inside.

He had long disliked his brother-in-law.

They do nothing productive all day and borrow money every few days.

He always blindly praises his son while openly and subtly belittling Jiang Chen.

Qiangzi was a class monitor in elementary school, and people still praise him for it, saying he was born to be an official.

Even a simple real estate agent can be touted as a golden opportunity.

I bought a Camry, paying only 20% down payment and taking out a five-year loan. I also borrowed 10,000 yuan of that money myself.

And they still have the nerve to show off in front of themselves? Anyone who didn't know better would think they bought a Mercedes or BMW outright.

Every year she says her son has earned money and wants to buy a house, but she never does.

They even said they spent their down payment because they got sick.

In reality, the medical expenses totaled 20,000 yuan after reimbursement, of which 5,000 yuan was borrowed from myself.

If you're short 15,000 yuan and can't buy a house, then you shouldn't buy it!

The key point is that what Sun Mengjia and Jiang Chen said this time was actually correct; they only said good things and were all for his own good, so no one could find fault with them.

So, Dad secretly glanced at Mom and, seeing that she wasn't too angry, stood up and gestured to Uncle.

"Uncle, sit down. Why are you getting angry with a child?"

"The child's words may be rough, but the reasoning is sound."

"Didn't you say Qiangzi earns a good amount of money in the provincial capital, tens of thousands a month? How come he hasn't saved any money? Maybe his girlfriend spends it all."

"The reason why Chenchen was able to buy a car outright is because he and Jiajia are both good at managing money and saving money."

"When I came back, I took a hard seat on a green-skinned train."

He doesn't usually like to praise Jiang Chen, especially in front of outsiders, as it always seems like he's praising himself.

But at this moment, he didn't care anymore.

Jiang Chen almost burst out laughing when he saw his father.

Show!

Upon hearing this, my aunt immediately jumped out.

She slammed her chopsticks on the table, her face contorted in a long, drawn-out expression, spitting as she spoke.

"Okay! Okay!"

"This is what college students in big cities are like!"

"Now that they've got a little money, they don't even respect their own uncles anymore!"

"You, as the father, don't care at all, and you're just making sarcastic remarks. Are you implying that I, Qiangzi, can't earn that much money?"

"Only your son can make money, but my son can't!"

Auntie's triangular eyes glared fiercely at Sun Mengjia, as if she wanted to vent all the anger she had just suffered on her:

"Is this the good daughter-in-law you found?"

"She has no manners whatsoever. Does she even have the right to interrupt adults?"

"She's spouting nonsense, saying she doesn't want a dowry or a house. I think she's just a worthless piece of trash nobody wants. She's only trying to swindle your son because he's making money, and you're still treating her like a treasure!"

Once those words were spoken, the nature of the situation completely changed.

If what came before was sarcastic and sarcastic, this is now a blatant personal attack and insult.

Jiang Chen's father's expression changed instantly.

My mother also stood up.

Seeing the situation escalating to a point of no return, Grandpa slammed his fist on the table.

"What are you all doing! We're eating! Sit down! Nobody's making a sound!"

However, as soon as he finished speaking, his aunt snorted coldly, "You're only acting tough now that your daughter and son-in-law are here."

"Now that your nephew is making money, he looks down on his uncle and aunt, and you look down on us too."

"Since you love your daughter so much, why don't you go with him?"

Upon hearing his aunt's words, Grandpa was so angry that his hands trembled and he even dropped his chopsticks.

My father was so angry that the veins on the back of his hand bulged out. If it weren't for family reasons, he probably would have hit him.

Jiang Chen was speechless.

A fool is a fool.

If Grandpa really sided with Jiang Chen and Mom, he should have stood up sooner, instead of stopping them after Uncle and Aunt had finished venting their anger and cursing.

Of course, Jiang Chen wouldn't care about any of that.

They've already started arguing, and my aunt has offended everyone in the house.

At this point, it's time for me to draw their fire.

Jiang Chen said without any hesitation, "Aunt, what you're saying doesn't make sense. We're all just trying to be kind."

"Don't you know who everyone's been working so hard for all day?"

"You pretended to be asleep in the morning and that was that, but in the afternoon, knowing there was chores to do at home, you still went out to slack off."

"Grandma and Grandpa have been busy all day. They've worked hard for you and your uncle your whole lives. Now that they're old, you don't even take care of them, and you still expect them to do chores and cook for you."

"Now that Grandpa has stepped forward to speak the truth, you're still not happy about it."

"Apologize to Grandpa!"

Jiang Chen doesn't know how to swear, but he knows how to argue in a way that puts him on the moral high ground.

It's about excluding yourself and using other people's opinions as a basis for discussion.

But the more this happens, the angrier she gets, because she finds herself all alone, and even if she was right, she becomes wrong.

So, my aunt, who wasn't a good person to begin with, just snapped.

"You little brat, is this how your parents raised you? I'll fucking kill you..."

Before she could finish speaking, Sun Mengjia, who had been a staunch supporter of her aunt, completely dropped her act.

He rolled up his sleeves, stood up, put one foot on the chair, grabbed a plate, and pointed at his aunt.

"Go to hell with you!"

"Who the hell are you getting angry at?!"

"I thought you were some kind of good person, but I spit on you!"

"I was so blind!"

"Besides being a little ugly, a little fat, a little foul-mouthed, a little lazy, and having your brain squeezed in a door, what else do you have?!"

"Before I came, Jiang Chen repeatedly told me not to take your words to heart."

"I'm giving you face, but did you give me any face in return?"

Sun Mengjia sneered: "You were pointing fingers at me earlier. If Jiang Chen hadn't stopped me, I would have started yelling at you already."

"You really think I'm easy to bully?"

"I haven't even said anything yet, and you've already started swearing at me."

"Are you kidding me because Jiang Chen can't swear?"

"Come on, you stinking idiot, try cursing at me!"

"I'll curse you to death, you fat pig! I'm not a Sun!"
