Since the first day of the Lunar New Year, people have been visiting the house to pay New Year greetings.
There are not many relatives in Lao Gu's family. The main ones here are the friends and colleagues of the second uncle, all of whom are bringing their children. The second uncle and the second aunt both gave red envelopes, but after closing the door, the second aunt looked at her three children. , and began to sigh again.
The youngest, Gu Xiaolei, was about to go to college, and now there was no way to take them to New Year greetings to collect red envelopes, so the second aunt decided to change her strategy and urged Gu Yuan to get married and have children as soon as possible. When the time came, she would hold Gu Yuan in her arms. When the children at home go to pay New Year greetings, the red envelopes can come and go.
Kong Bai, Hexing Ruyu and Wei Xuanyi, who had just had New Year's Eve dinner at Gu's house yesterday, came again with the same large and small bags, which made the second aunt very unhappy.
"I just gave you a gift yesterday, and I brought something here today. What does it look like? Take it away as soon as you leave!" The second aunt told several young people.
Kong Baihe responded with a playful smile and did not answer the question at all. Wei Xuanyi also said beside him: "Second Aunt, yesterday was yesterday and today is this year. How can anyone come empty-handed to pay New Year's greetings?"
The second aunt sighed. She could see that none of the things these children brought were cheap.
Before Kong Baihe's butt was still hot from sitting, Fang Yu also came, carrying seven or eight things. He was surprised for a while when he saw so many people at home, and it didn't take long for him to make friends with Kong Baihe.
However, Fang Yu and Kong Baihe were different. There were many relatives who were leaving. They didn't sit there for long before they quickly got up and left. Gu Yuan sent him downstairs. When he got downstairs, Fang Yu smiled and said, "That Kong Baihe." He, at first glance, he is not an ordinary person."
"Then he must be my colleague from the Demon Suppression Department. Could he be an ordinary person?" Gu Yuan said with a smile.
"No, no, no." Fang Yu shook his head, "I don't mean that, I think he is not simple. I feel very comfortable chatting with him. He can pick up everything I say, but I can feel it." You see, he has a sense of arrogance in his bones, and he is not from the same world as me."
Gu Yuan was stunned and said with a smile: "Don't think so much, Kong Baihe is a pretty good person."
"I didn't say anything bad about him. Your friend, his character must be good. Being arrogant is not a shortcoming. His arrogance is not pretended, but in his bones... Forget it, let me tell you that you are I don’t understand either, just go back, I’m leaving!”
After watching Fang Yu leave, Gu Yuan still thought about what Fang Yu had just said, with mixed feelings in his heart.
Upstairs, Fang Yu and Kong Baihe had a good chat, but in fact, Fang Yu knew very well that he and Kong Baihe were not from the same world. No matter how good the chat was and the time was longer, they still always did the same thing. No true friends.
When he said those words just now, Fang Yu's tone was actually a little lonely. What made him lonely was not that he felt the difference from Kong Baihe, but that he suddenly discovered that Gu Yuan's current friend was no longer able to establish a relationship with him. Friendship.
He was not sentimental that he and Kong Baihe were not in the same world, but found that Gu Yuan was slowly leaving his world.
If Gu Yuan hadn't awakened, hadn't joined the Demon Suppression Division, and found an ordinary job after graduating from college, maybe he and Fang Yu would still spend two days together and three days together in life.
However, even so, in Gu Yuan's heart, Fang Yu is still the best brother. He is looking forward to the day of Fang Yu's wedding. He will give him the biggest red envelope in the room, help him save his face, and then drive the wedding car. Follow behind and put on a suit to be his best man.
Sometimes, he even hoped that day would come earlier, because he didn't know what would happen in the future and whether he would be absent from Fang Yu's important occasions. After all, he had never had such worries in the past. .
In the afternoon, everyone was sent away. The second aunt looked at the piles of gifts in the room, turned to look at Gu Yuan, and said, "None of Xiao Kong's children are from Star City, right?"
"Um."
"This is a headache. They come to our house to pay New Year greetings. You have to visit their elders. If they are not far away, go and see them later." The second aunt said, "By the way, Xiaoxia's family and Fang Yu's family , you must go, don’t forget.”
"Yes." Gu Yuan nodded repeatedly and said with a smile, "Xiao Kong... Kong Baihe's family is from the capital, and I am planning to go to the capital in a few days, so I can go and visit."
"That's good. Don't be reluctant to spend money. Although I didn't check, I can tell that the things they brought over are not cheap. They cost thousands at least!" said the second aunt.
Gu Yuan was sitting on the sofa, holding a cup and drinking tea. He felt that the second aunt was still too small. The two boxes of tea that Kong Baihe brought were worth tens of thousands, so he probably had to keep them.
Gifts worth several thousand dollars... Kong Baihe really couldn't handle them!
When he came to the Demon Division of Star Town, the only person who was a little unhappy might be the old man of the Kong family. Everyone in the Kong family wanted to make a noise that day.
The most indispensable thing for a family like the Kong family is money. Since Kong Baihe gave up his position as the head of the family, stayed away from family disputes, and voluntarily left the capital, then for them, there is no threat at all. Of course, money is needed. How much... Kong Baihe didn't even need to speak.
In Kong Baihe's words, even if he only spends a few million a month, he would have to call his family to ask if he was in a bad mood. And Kong Baihe didn't intend to save money for them. The more he spent, the more relieved the family members became.
When others say such words, it sounds a bit like Versailles, but when Kong Baihe said these words, Gu Yuan could hear that there was self-mockery in every word.
On the second day of the Lunar New Year, there are still waves of people paying New Year's greetings, but not everyone can be greeted by the smiling face of the second uncle. At this time of year, there are some who want to use their connections to use the back door.
The second uncle's attitude towards these people was not tough at the beginning. At first, he welcomed them politely, but he had to take the things back. If the other party refused too much, the second uncle would also lower his face and say a few harsh words, and often the other party would understand. He left with gifts.
But today, there is someone who is ignorant.
He was a middle-aged man, wearing mink and quite fat. When the second uncle saw him, he didn't have a good look on his face.
"Boss Wang, I can't help you with your son's matter." The second uncle said, "Injuring someone with a weapon is not a trivial matter. Moreover, the victim is still lying in bed. To be serious, it is very possible that It was classified as attempted homicide.”
The man in mink had a playful smile on his face, shook the big gold watch in his hand and said cheerfully: "Captain Gu, you captured the man, and you still have the final say on what happens in the end!"
"I'm just a catcher, I don't have that much ability." Gu Jianshan was dumbfounded.
However, in the process of declining, the gift bag suddenly fell to the ground, the iron box inside also fell open, and stacks of banknotes slid out from it.
The second uncle's face instantly darkened.
