Despite being incredibly wealthy, I want to be a prosecutor.

The eldest brother, Ping, lives on the fourth floor of an old-fashioned apartment building, with an area of ​​over 70 square meters.

By Chinese standards, it's a two-bedroom apartment; locally, it's called a "two-bedroom apartment," though the layout is quite different from that of a Chinese apartment.

When Zhou Hong came up with a bottle of red wine, his sister-in-law Liu Wei opened the door. She was wearing a face mask, red pajamas, and bright red toenails on her snow-white feet, which looked quite elegant on the milky white oak floor.

Zhou Hong subconsciously noticed this and quickly turned his head, feeling helpless. It seemed that after activating the system and getting a few bucks, he was going crazy and wanted to fly to the sky.

I quickly placed the red wine on the dining table.

My sister-in-law Liu Wei has a little hobby, which is drinking red wine. To put it bluntly, it's about spending time with her girlfriends in the circle and being influenced by them to admire the petit-bourgeois lifestyle. If it were twenty years from now, her two girlfriends would be the typical socialites from Xiaohongshu.

Big Brother Ping was folding a blanket next to the sofa, it seems he was punished to sleep on the sofa again last night.

Upon seeing Zhou Hong bring the red wine, he immediately smiled and said, "Little Hong, you finally know not to come empty-handed when you visit your brother and sister-in-law's house!"

"What are you saying?!" Liu Wei glared at her eldest brother Ping, then asked Zhou Hong, "Have you had breakfast? Should I cook you some porridge?"

"I've eaten, I've eaten." Zhou Hong waved his hand.

"Oh? What kind of wine is this?" Big Brother Ping didn't dare to contradict Liu Wei and awkwardly looked at the red wine that Zhou Hong had brought.

"It should be called Latour Castle," Zhou Hong said.

"Oh?" Liu Wei took two steps forward to look at the thing she had snatched from Big Brother Ping's hand, and Big Brother Ping had no choice but to retreat awkwardly.

"Hey, Xiao Hong, don't buy wine recklessly anymore." Liu Wei casually placed the red wine on the table.

"Oh..." Zhou Hong didn't say anything more.

Having spent a lot of time with Beckham and frequently attending events like "Fast & Furious 5," I've actually gained some knowledge about red wine.

Moreover, the red wines in my own wine cellar are all obtained from legitimate high-end wine brand stores during "street sweeping days," so how could they be fake?

This is the real "Château Latour", also known as "Grand Latour".

Château Latour produces three main wines: the flagship wine, known as Grande Latour; the second label, known as Petit Latour; and the third label, made from the fruit of young vines, which is considered a value-for-money product.

This year's "Grand Château Latour" is actually grapes from the previous two years, which have just been released to the market. It is the 2000 vintage of Château Latour. In Europe, it costs about 600 euros a bottle, but in the Asian market, due to tariffs and other reasons, it costs about 10,000 RMB.

My sisters-in-law are afraid they won't get to drink Château Latour, so even when they drink the "third label" of Château Latour, they always say they're drinking Château Latour.

When the genuine Château Latour was placed before her, her sister-in-law thought it was a counterfeit product.

But it's not easy to argue it out completely.

"Your sister Yu'er's father has pancreatic cancer..." Liu Wei called Zhou Hong to sit on the sofa and sighed softly, "Your sister Yu'er's birthday is in a couple of days, but this child probably won't be in the mood to celebrate."

The eldest brother, Ping, blinked and whispered, "Even if Xiao Hong were here, I wouldn't be afraid he'd tell our hometown what I said. I'll say it again: help those in urgent need, not the chronically poor. You need to mortgage the house for a loan. What if Yu'er's family can't pay it back in their lifetime..."

Liu Wei, her face cold, was about to speak.

"Sister-in-law, brother, Sister Yu'er should have raised the money by now, so you don't need to worry about it," Zhou Hong said hurriedly from the side. The problem had already been solved, and there was no need to cause his elder brother and sister-in-law to quarrel again.

"Ah? That's great!" The eldest brother immediately breathed a sigh of relief.

"What? How could this be?!" Liu Wei looked incredulous, picked up her phone to call Yu'er, but suddenly her expression changed, and she shook her head. "No, I have to go home." She got up and hurriedly went to the bedroom to change her clothes.

The eldest brother's face darkened, and he gritted his teeth, muttering, "When I'm short of money, I beg you to go back to your family and ask for some help, and you've never agreed, all for an outsider!"

The eldest brother spoke very softly, as if talking to himself, but it did not escape Zhou Hong's ears.

Zhou Hong scratched his head. It was obvious that his sister-in-law had probably guessed that Yu'er might do something foolish to raise money, which was why she wanted to go back to her parents' home to borrow money.

I didn't think of this at first because after Sister Yu'er grew up, I had little contact with her. The image of her in my dreams was somewhat "deified" by myself. I also didn't have a deep experience of the dark side of the target country. But now, it seems that every day, a massive amount of information is stimulating the growth of my thinking.

Unlike her elder brother Ping's family, which had fallen on hard times, her sister-in-law's family was a well-developed Chinese family with thousands of acres of farmland. However, her sister-in-law Liu Wei was a married daughter, and according to traditional thinking, she was like water spilled from a bowl, meaning she had nothing to do with the family's property.

"Sister-in-law, the problem with Sister Yu'er has really been resolved. If you don't believe me, call her and ask." Zhou Hong stood up and stopped Liu Wei, who had just changed her clothes and was walking out quickly.

"You don't understand!" Liu Wei's pretty face was very serious. "Let's go, I'll take a taxi back and drop you off at the language school on the way."

Zhou Hong didn't dare to say anything more and could only follow her downstairs. His elder brother Ping was clearly holding back his anger and didn't even see him off.

When Liu Wei got downstairs, she was about to go to the entrance of the community to hail a taxi when she saw Zhou Hong take out his car keys and a black SUV next to her beeped twice.

"Sister-in-law, I drove here!" Zhou Hong opened the passenger door.

"Where did you borrow it from? You can drive?" Liu Wei was a little distracted at the moment, thinking about what to say when she returned to her parents' home.

Some women are completely indifferent to luxury cars, while others are extremely sensitive to them; my sister-in-law is clearly the former.

After starting the car, Zhou Hong said thoughtfully, "Sister-in-law, the problem with Sister Yu'er has really been resolved, so you don't need to worry anymore."

"You can drop me off at the language school, I'll take a taxi back," Liu Wei said casually.

Zhou Hong was helpless; his sister-in-law was completely ignoring his words and just following her own logic.

My sister-in-law Liu Wei's hometown is a county town, while Hekou is considered the provincial capital.

Zhou Hong wondered whether he should tell his sister-in-law that he had given Yu'er the money.

However, my sister-in-law might not believe it, and it would also involve Yu'er's privacy.

Never mind, whatever. It won't hurt to let Sister Yu'er know how kind her sister-in-law is to her.

Without saying anything more, he drove Liu Wei directly to Xincheng County, which is Liu Wei's hometown.

A few hours later, he drove his sister-in-law back home.

However, Liu Wei seemed a bit down, apparently because the loan request wasn't going well.

"Xiao Hong, come have a couple of drinks with me," Liu Wei suddenly said after the Cayenne entered the city of Hekou.

The sun was high in the sky, at noon, when Zhou Hong coughed and said, "Sister-in-law, I have something to do this afternoon, so I can't drink."

I'd like to go to Chiang Rai to deliver some gifts to my mentor, Prosecutor Solawong.

I have a holiday this week, so I can take care of some errands.

"Whatever you want!" Liu Wei leaned back in the passenger seat and closed her eyes slightly.

"It's midday, sister-in-law, you should drink less..." Zhou Hong advised cautiously.

"I understand..." Liu Wei responded softly, glancing at Zhou Hong. "We both have the surname Zhou, but you're much better than your older brother Ping."

Zhou Hong was too frightened to answer.

"Pfft," Liu Wei chuckled, catching Zhou Hong's cautious demeanor out of the corner of her eye. "Xiao Hong, do you think I'm that scary?"

"My sister-in-law is smart, capable, and beautiful, how could she be scary?" Zhou Hong said.

"You, I didn't expect you to be so glib." Liu Wei pouted.

Zhou Hong then said, "Sister-in-law, this reminds me of a joke. Please don't tell my opinion of you to your second sister-in-law."

"What? Why can't I say?" Liu Wei became interested and sat up straight.

"Because I described my second sister-in-law as intelligent, capable, and honest..."

"If you tell her that, she'll come after me and say, 'So you're implying I'm not pretty?'"

"What can I say? I tell her, so you're being honest, right?"

Liu Wei didn't understand at first, but after a while she finally realized what she meant, and immediately burst into laughter, tears welling up in her eyes. "Xiao Hong, you, you're so funny, you're killing me with laughter, hahaha..."

As she laughed, she turned her head, wiped her eyes, looked at the street scene outside the window, and after a long silence, whispered, "Xiao Hong, thank you."

She finally realized that she was no longer a complete outsider in her parents' home, and was no longer the little princess who was pampered by everyone. She must have felt extremely sad.

Zhou Hong didn't say anything. At this moment, the black SUV had already driven into the residential area where his sister-in-law's apartment building was located.
