Chapter 407 Flattery
Everyone knows that Hua Jingxing is not welcome by Old Lady Hua, but now everyone in the village wants to curry favor with Hua Jingxing.
"Jingxing, Happy New Year! I thought you would be able to come back yesterday. The branch secretary has been thinking about you these past two days."
Some village cadres greeted Hua Jingxing. Old Mrs. Hua was blind and heartless, but they were not. Now all the business in the village depended on Hua Jingxing.
"Brother Qin, Happy New Year!"
Hua Jingxing had to hide her disappointment and greeted everyone with a smile.
Most of the people on the road at this time are young people, and the older ones are waiting at home for others to visit them and wish them a happy new year.
The reason why Old Lady Hua can wander around the streets is that her family's popularity has been ruined by her and her two children, so fewer and fewer people visit her home.
"Mom, what's wrong with you? Hua Jingxing, you unfilial son, you made our mom like this as soon as you came back. Hurry up and give me some money, I'll take Mom to the hospital."
I don’t know who told Hua Jingyu, but this rascal came up and started biting Hua Jingxing.
"Yeah! Big brother, what did you do to our mother?"
Hua Jingxian, who came running over, also joined the crusade camp.
Hua Jingxing looked at the brother and sister with a dead heart, without saying a word.
Hua Yan couldn't bear to see her father being wronged, so she wiped away her tears and said in a sobbing voice:
"My dad didn't do anything. She wanted to hit me, but she missed and fell down. Everyone in the car saw it."
Hua Jingxian knew that her mother hated Hua Yan, and now the situation was like this, and she didn't know whether she wanted to take advantage of the situation or to avenge her mother. Before anyone could react, she raised her hand to hit Hua Yan at lightning speed.
Hua Yan had already seen through Hua Jingxian's thoughts. With a slight movement of her wrist, a stone hit Hua Jingxian's knee. With a "thump", Hua Jingxian fell to the ground.
Haha! It's true that like mother, like daughter. Hua Jingxian was hit hard and his face was covered with blood. His originally pretty face was immediately covered with dust and dirt, and it seemed that one of his front teeth was knocked out.
Seeing his mother and second sister in such an awkward situation, Hua Jingyu rushed towards Hua Yan angrily, as if he wanted to tear Hua Yan apart.
Hua Jingxing was just startled by Hua Jingxian's action and hadn't reacted yet. Seeing Hua Jingyu doing the same thing again, he was worried that Hua Yan would be hurt, so he wanted to jump out of the car immediately. But before he could jump, Hua Jingyu fell to the ground obediently with a "pop".
Everyone couldn't hold back and burst into laughter, "Haha!"
It was really weird. They all wanted to come up and beat people, but unexpectedly they all had a close contact with the earth. Now everyone was wondering if Hua Jingyu's teeth had fallen out too.
Haha! Everyone turned around and started laughing.
"Uncles and grandpas, Happy New Year! My dad and I came back specially to wish everyone a happy new year. We didn't expect to be beaten as soon as we entered the village. Fortunately, everyone saw it and knew right from wrong. Otherwise, my dad and I would never be able to clear our name even if we jumped into the Yellow River."
Hua Yan looked extremely aggrieved, which caused everyone to sigh.
Originally, Hua Jingxing led everyone to live a good life, and everyone in the village was grateful to him. But now, seeing what Old Lady Hua and her two children did, they all felt indignant.
"Auntie, Brother Jingxing is such a good man, and he treats you all so well. Why are you so ungrateful and always looking for trouble with him?"
"Who says it's not true? Every year Jingxing brings back a lot of things, but he never invites them to eat a single meal. It's really too much."
"Jingxing always does his best to help others. How can he not care about his brothers and sisters? Don't Jingzhen and Jingqi follow Jingxing's lead?"
"Yeah! I heard that Jingxian and Jingyu also went to Shengjing some time ago, but they came back not long after. And they scolded Jingxing as worthless. I really didn't listen to them."
"If they work hard, will Jingxing let them come back? I guess they will still be the same as before, playing tricks and not doing their job."
"Oh! I really feel sorry for Jingxing. As the eldest child in the family, he has never received any benefits and has only been cleaning up the mess for the family."
"This bias is so extreme that it reaches my armpits. It's really embarrassing to watch."
People said all kinds of things, but no one said anything good about Old Lady Hua.
"Stop talking nonsense! It's your turn to gossip about our family affairs. Get out of here."
Old Lady Hua, with blood all over her face and a leaky mouth, looked at everyone viciously.
"Haha! Who wants to care about your family's mess? Jingxing, let's go to our house for dinner."
I don't know who made the suggestion, but then many people followed suit:
"Yeah! Jingxing, come to our house for dinner. My dad wants to have a drink with you."
"What are you making such a fuss about? Jingxing is going to the Party Secretary's house to pay New Year's greetings!"
Liang Dong saw that the wind direction was following Hua Jingxing's, and immediately made his intention clear.
"Let's go. I also want to go to the Party Secretary's house to pay New Year's greetings. Let's go together."
A group of people followed Liang Dong's tractor and headed towards the branch secretary's house.
Deng Zhi pulled Hua Yan and asked softly, "Jiu'er, you're not scared, are you?"
Hua Yan shook her head and thought, how could such a small scene scare me.
Old Mrs. Hua and her two children were cursing behind them. Although I couldn't hear clearly what they were saying, I knew from their resentful eyes that they must be extremely vicious.
Secretary Su may have also heard the news and asked his sons to go and take a look.
Just as Su Quan and a few brothers were about to go out, they heard the sound of a tractor.
"Happy New Year, Secretary Grandpa!"
"Happy New Year, Secretary!"
"Uncle, Happy New Year!"
"Uncle, Happy New Year!"
Everyone made way and Hua Jingxing walked in with the child.
Hua Yan first wished Su Wenchao a happy new year, and Hua Jingxing and everyone else also wished him a happy new year.
"Good! Good!"
Su Wenchao pulled Hua Yan over and looked her up and down.
"Grandpa Secretary, have I grown taller again?"
"Haha! Yes, I've grown taller again."
Su Wenchao touched Hua Yan's head, his love for her was beyond words.
Haha! How could I not like him? This kid is the God of Wealth of Shuanglou Village.
"Everyone come in and sit down!"
Su Quan and his brothers invited everyone into the house. Although they felt that the house could not accommodate everyone, no one took the initiative to leave. The room was crowded with people, and some even stood outside.
Liang Dong unloaded everything from the car and left with his wife and children.
Some people who couldn't get a slot followed Liang Dong. Since they couldn't curry favor with Hua Jingxing, they might get some benefits by trying to please Liang Dong.
There were still a lot of people left in the crowded house, and they couldn't be kicked out during the New Year. Su Wenchao told his wife and daughter-in-law to cook quickly to relieve the pressure in the house.
Everyone looked at what Hua Jingxing brought, wanting to see what it was.
Hua Yan opened her bag and took out the imported candies she had brought back from the trading company and distributed a portion to everyone in the room.
Haha! These all exist in space, and we are just taking them out symbolically now.
Maybe no one noticed anything was wrong, as everyone's attention was on the candy in their hands.
Although the villagers now live a good life with Hua Jingxing, they have never seen these rare things.
Su Wenchao's daughters-in-law felt sorry for him because without these people, all the things would belong to their family.
"Don't be so superficial! That's Jiu'er's own thing. Give it to whoever you want. Our family has benefited enough from Jiu'er! You should know the truth that greed is insatiable and the snake swallows the elephant!"
Su Wenchao's wife was working while beating her daughter-in-law. In fact, she felt bad for her daughter-in-law, but on the surface she had to appear to be at a higher level than others. Haha!
After taking their things, everyone was even more reluctant to leave, always wondering if there would be other good things.
"Okay, Jingxing brought Jiuer here. They encountered upset things as soon as they entered the village. You guys don't have anything to do, so let them calm down first."
Su Wenchao is chasing people away.
When everyone heard this, they realized that it was indeed the case, and they all took their things and left happily.
"Jingxing, I've heard everything. Your mother is just like that. Don't take it to heart. Just have a good time during the New Year. Let Su Quan and the others have a few drinks with you today. Last year, Su Xiao and Su Peng were not at home, so this year everyone is here."
Su Wenchao was indeed happy today. Last year, due to their busy work, his second and third sons did not come back from Shenzhen, and only his eldest son was with him for the New Year. This year, it was Hua Yan who suggested that they come back first.
