Chapter 16 Take a plane? No. I drive!
"Hey, Chang Jie, did you buy river fish? Why did you take a car back? Who is this young man?"

"Isn't the person getting out of the car the youngest of the Chen family? In previous years, she would not go back to her parents' home, but now she drives a big car! Could it be... that she bought it herself?"

"How is it possible? The man she married, Su Su Zhiyun, is just a driver. How could he afford such a nice car?"

"You are just saying the grapes are sour because you can't eat them, and you don't allow others to turn their fortunes around."

Su Chen heard all kinds of sour remarks before he even got off the car, but... he was used to it.

During the days of his grandmother's birthday party, he also heard a lot of older people gossiping behind his back.

At first Su Chen was a little angry, but then he gradually realized that these people were just envious and jealous, so there was no reason for him to be angry with them.

The more miserable they are, the happier they are.

When the middle-aged ladies who were watching saw the trunk full of gift boxes, many of them were moved to tears.

Those who had some conflicts with the Chen family turned around and went home.
And those who have a good relationship with the Chen family... gathered around and talked to each other.

"I said Shufen was destined to enjoy a good life, and now she is enjoying it."

Under the enthusiasm of the crowd, Su Chen quickly escaped with a few gift boxes and went straight to his grandmother's house.

Knowing that Su Chen and the others were coming, the grandmother had been sitting on the ground, looking forward to it.

When he saw Chen Shufen's figure appear in his sight, a faint smile appeared on his old face.

"Mom, why are you sitting outside? Isn't it hot?" Chen Shufen said with some reproach.

"It's not hot. The weather is quite cool today!" As she spoke, she glanced at the young man following Chen Changjie.

"Shufen, is that my wonderful grandson?" A look of excitement appeared on grandma's face.

At this time, Su Chen also came up with a gift in his hand, "Grandma, I'm here to see you!"

"Good, good. I haven't seen my grandson for a long time. I didn't expect he has grown so tall!" Grandma held Su Chen's hand with excitement on her face.

To be honest, Su Chen is very embarrassed now and doesn't know what to say.

Fortunately, Chen Changjie on the side spoke up.

"Mom, please let Xiaochen put down the things in his hands first!"

Grandma then noticed what Su Chen was holding, and looked at Chen Shufen with a reproachful look and said, "You came so soon, but why did you buy so many things? You're just wasting money. Don't you know what's going on at home?"

Chen Shufen opened her mouth, but swallowed back any words of defense she might have wanted to offer.

After putting down the gift box, Su Chen couldn't escape his grandmother's concern and started chatting with her.

Chen Shufen consciously put on an apron and walked into the kitchen.

Su Chen sat next to his grandmother and started chatting with her.

At first Su Chen didn't know what to say, but gradually he became more and more excited, and began to share his experiences and some interesting things he encountered in the Magic City.

It made grandma laugh non-stop.

"Let's eat~"

Su's mother's call interrupted their conversation. Hearing his mother calling for dinner, Su Chen supported his grandmother and walked towards the main room.

As soon as he entered the room, he smelled a strong fish aroma, which made Su Chen swallow his saliva again and again.

The white fish soup and the fragrant fish meat are so delicious that you can’t stop eating them!

The grandmother beside him also saw Su Chen's embarrassing look and said jokingly, "Look how greedy Xiao Chen is, he's almost drooling!"

"Hahaha~ Xiaochen, here are the dishes and chopsticks for you!" Chen Changjie smiled and handed over the dishes and chopsticks in his hand.

After everyone sat down, Su Chen served himself a bowl of fish soup.

“It’s really delicious~”

River fish itself has no earthy smell, and the bones are all big. The meat is soft and tender, and melts in the mouth. Su Chen ate it with great pleasure.

Seeing Su Chen eating voraciously, Chen Shufen kicked him a few times, and Su Chen, who had come to his senses, restrained himself a little.

"It's delicious, Xiaochen, eat more!" said grandma, and put a few pieces of fish belly into his bowl.

"Thank you, grandma. You can eat too!"

.........

"Mom, are we really leaving like this?" Su Chen looked back at his grandmother's house and asked with some confusion.

"What else? Stay here for a few days? Wouldn't you just cause trouble for your second uncle if you play here?"

"That's true!" When we were having lunch today, my second aunt didn't come home because she was at work.

Now that I think about it carefully, it is exactly as my mother said.

While grandma was taking a nap, Su Chen said hello to his second uncle, and the others quietly returned to the city.

"Xiaochen, I heard Qingya say that she wants to go to the Magic City with you?"

"Ah~ Didn't she get admitted to Shanghai University? She wanted to reduce the burden on Uncle San and the others, so she thought about going to Shanghai to find a part-time job in advance." Su Chen said casually while driving.

"How are you going to explain it to Qingya then?"

Su Chen was stunned for a moment. Explain to Qingya? Explain what?
Soon he figured it out!

"Mom, are you talking about the car?"

"What else? When Qingya goes to the Magic City with you, you won't drive your Aston Martin? Then Qingya..."

"Mom, we are all family. There is nothing to hide. You won't look down on them just because you have money, right?" Su Chen said jokingly.

Su Chen knows his mother very well.

He is not the kind of snob who would draw a line between himself and his relatives and friends just because he has money. Moreover, Su Zhiyun and his three brothers have a good relationship. Even if they know that Su Chen's family has become rich, they will not be jealous.

What's more, even Su Zhiyun and Chen Shufen don't know how rich Su Chen is. Their knowledge is still stuck on Aston Martin.

"What's more, Qingya is the only female college student in our Su family. That's Magic City University. It would be very proud if we could tell others about it!"

"You're right. I'm overthinking it! If Qingya has any problems in Shanghai, you should help her as the eldest brother!"

"Got it, Mom! Do you need to tell me this? I've already thought about it!"

He didn't intend to hide anything from Su Qingya, and he also had certain arrangements for his sister.

..........
"Brother, why did you get up just now? Didn't we agree to leave today? It's almost nine o'clock now, and we still have to take the bullet train to the foggy city and then take a plane." Su Qingya stood in the living room, pushing a large pink suitcase and muttering.

"Don't worry, don't worry!" Su Chen patted Su Qingya's head, walked to the bathroom and started washing up under her murderous gaze.

By the time Su Chen had washed up and changed his clothes, it was already half past nine.

"Ah~ Brother, you're finally done. Let's get going. I just checked and if we go fast, we can catch the flight to Shanghai at 1 pm!"

"Let's not take a plane, let's drive there!" Su Chen's words were like a basin of cold water poured on Su Qingya's head.

In an instant, the whole person was wilted.

"Ah~ I'm not going to take a plane. I..." Su Qingya was looking forward to her first flight and was excited for several days. Who knew...

Seeing that Su Qingya was a little depressed, Su Chen joked, "Why, are you unhappy that I drove over?"

"No~ I just think it's a pity not to take a plane..."

"You'll feel it's not a pity later. Let's go!" Su Chen reached out and pinched Su Qingya's nose, then laughed and walked out the door carrying the pink suitcase.

"Hmph! You stinky brother, you only know how to bully me!" Su Qingya stomped her feet and quickly followed.
