Chapter 32: Chen Le really did send cigarettes and alcohol!
"Old woman, put it on quickly. Since it's Chen Le's gift, just accept it."
Su Tieshan sighed and quickly gave him a look, a reminder.
The meaning is clear: get this kid out of here as soon as possible.
Zhang Xiuqin reluctantly took out the bracelet and put it on her wrist.
To my surprise, the size was surprisingly perfect.
Just right!
She was stunned.
I couldn't believe what I saw.
At the same time, he was extremely worried, fearing that Chen Le was up to no good.
She didn't believe Chen Le would kindly give her a gift without expecting anything in return.
"Mom and Dad, Su Xi, I'll be going now."
"Take your time eating."
After Chen Le finished speaking, he pulled out a chair, turned around, and walked outside.
At that moment, his smile was gentle.
He seemed to have found a way to get Su Xi and her parents to accept his attempt to make amends.
Before gaining their trust, just persist a few times.
Let your parents-in-law compromise first; they will then notice your changes.
……
Chen Le just left.
The elderly couple from the Su family both breathed a sigh of relief.
"Dad, why are we spoiling that bastard? Just kick him out, why bother taking his junk!"
Su Dalong said with a sullen face, his tone very displeased.
"If we don't get rid of him today, will your mother even be able to celebrate her birthday?"
"Who is Chen Le? Would I dare accept his things? I can just return them to him later. They're just junk and fakes anyway."
Su Tieshan spoke with a worried expression.
After Chen Le left, everyone breathed a sigh of relief, and the atmosphere finally eased.
Li Qiang narrowed his eyes and revealed a fawning smile: "Uncle, the things Chen Le gave us, especially the cigarettes and alcohol, are probably not good stuff. You absolutely mustn't drink them!"
"If you want some, I'll have someone send you a couple more bottles of Maotai. At least it won't harm your health!"
Su Dalong also took the opportunity to laugh and say, "That's right, Li Qiang brought all the real stuff."
"Su Xi, you should think this over carefully!"
"If you had married sooner, that bastard Chen Le wouldn't have dared to cause you any more trouble, would he!"
Upon hearing this, Su Xi shook her head and said, "Brother, I just got divorced, so I'm not thinking about these things for now."
After saying that, he quickly left the table and went back to his room.
Just then, there was a knock on the door.
Su Tieshan got up and went to open the door.
When I opened the door, it was my retired colleague.
"Old Wang, what brings you here!"
"Come in, come in, it's my wife's birthday today, come in and have a few drinks."
Su Tieshan extended the invitation with a warm smile.
Old Wang shook his head and said, "No, no, I just have something to tell you."
He had a bitter expression on his face, opened his mouth as if he wanted to say something but hesitated.
It's a long story...
The cigarettes and alcohol that Chen Le gave to Su Tieshan last time were all given away to Lao Wang by Su Tieshan.
Su Tieshan didn't dare to accept it at all, fearing that he might get into trouble after drinking it.
Fearing that Old Wang might get sick from drinking it, they repeatedly told him to find a place to dispose of it, even if it was just cardboard, he could still make some money.
who knows……
Old Wang found a place to have it appraised.
They discovered that the cigarettes and alcohol were all genuine!
So much cigarettes and alcohol, worth tens of thousands of yuan!
Old Wang looked extremely nervous.
Counterfeit goods are one thing, but these are all genuine products!
He couldn't possibly take all the stuff worth so much money; he wouldn't be able to live with himself.
"Old Su, something terrible has happened!"
"Last time you asked me to take those cigarettes and alcohol, they were all for real!"
"I drank the wine, and those cigarettes were all genuine. I brought them all back, and I brought them all with me this time!"
Old Wang, trembling, handed over the remaining two bottles of Maotai and several packs of cigarettes.
Upon hearing this, Su Tieshan burst out laughing, completely disbelieving.
"Old Wang, are you kidding me?"
"These cigarettes and alcohol belong to my worthless ex-son-in-law. Do you think he'd leave me any valuables there?"
Old Wang immediately became agitated, shaking the appraisal report he was holding in his hand, and said urgently, "We're old brothers, why would I lie to you! Look at this!"
"But it's all real! I drank the wine, and the taste is exactly right!"
"I still made three or four thousand from the remaining half bottle!"
“My son has squandered most of those things from last time. I’ve brought you the rest. If you’re not comfortable with that, I’ll try to borrow money to pay you back.”
Old Wang handed over the cigarettes and cigarettes in his hand, and said with a sigh.
His pension wasn't much, and he occasionally supplemented his income by collecting recyclables.
If Old Su is determined to make him pay compensation, he really can't afford it.
But he was honest and kind his whole life. He could take advantage of small things, but he couldn't bring himself to lie to Su Tieshan and keep it from him.
"Forget it, forget it, we've been together for so many years, what's the big deal about losing money? Let's not talk about this."
Su Tieshan waved his hand and quickly took the appraisal report to look at it.
After flipping through a few pages, I was completely stunned; my eyes widened in disbelief.
The cigarettes and alcohol that Chen Le brought...
They're all genuine!
"Old Su, you must be incredibly lucky! Your children are so filial, but you don't appreciate it!"
"Your son-in-law is so much better than my son!"
Old Wang grabbed Su Tieshan's arm and pulled him out of the house.
He pointed to the gifts throughout the hallway.
"Old Su, this huge pile of stuff today, must have been brought by your son-in-law, right?"
"Look at this! Maotai, ginseng, and Tianxia cigarettes!"
"My God... this is going to cost at least several hundred thousand!"
"What a filial son-in-law! You couldn't find one even with a lantern!"
Old Wang, holding onto the steps, grew increasingly angry as he spoke, filled with envy.
"Worth hundreds of thousands?"
Su Tieshan asked incredulously.
"Nonsense, these are all expensive brands! You're a heavy smoker and drinker, why don't you try them yourself and see!"
Old Wang said angrily.
"Okay, I understand. You can go back now. I'll treat you to a meal another day."
After Su Tieshan realized what was happening, he patted Old Wang on the shoulder and sent him away.
After Lao Wang left, Su Tieshan looked solemn.
Despite his aching back, he pushed all the gifts piled up in the hallway into the house.
Su Dalong, who was sitting on the sofa playing on his phone, saw his father panting heavily and quickly came over to help him out of concern.
"Dad, why did you bring all this junk back? Throw it away right now, it's bad luck!"
"Watch your mouth! Calling someone an animal all the time, what kind of talk is that!"
"No matter what, Chen Le was once your brother-in-law!"
"I'll be the one to curse, not you!"
Su Tieshan reprimanded him with a cold face.
Su Dalong smiled and nonchalantly picked up a piece of Yitiao and Tianxia, weighing it in his hand.
"Tch, that kid Chen Le, you can't argue with him."
"Where did you find this fake? It looks so real!"
"If he were this focused on doing serious business, he would have achieved great things long ago. Instead, he's wasted his time on crooked ways!"
Su Dalong casually threw the He Tianxia cigarettes, worth over a thousand yuan, on the ground!
