Four thousand yuan was thrown at Chen Wenhai's feet.
Compared with the four thousand yuan, he was more shocked by Chen Dong's appearance.
"You...are you Chen Dong? Are you not dead? Are you back?"
"From what my second uncle said, it sounds like he doesn't want me to come back?"
Chen Dong snorted coldly and took a step forward to stand in front of his father.
Chen Wenhai was stunned for a moment, then he forced out a false smile and said: "What the hell, my second uncle is also very worried about you being missing for so many years..."
Speaking of this, Chen Wenhai glanced at the four thousand yuan on the ground and continued: "It seems that you have been making money in the past three years. Have you paid off your gambling debt? Otherwise, you should take back the four thousand yuan. This is your hard-earned hard-earned money when you left your hometown!"
"Don't worry, uncle, you'd better accept the four thousand yuan. From now on, our family will be severed!"
After saying that, Chen Dong said to his father: "Dad, let's go home! If you want to eat Junlin's food from now on, we can come and eat it every day!"
Chen Wenhai became furious when he saw that Chen Dong didn't take him seriously at all.
Little brat!
Who gave you the courage to talk to me like this?
With your family’s conditions, you still want to eat King’s Landing every day? None of their families dare to boast about such Haikou, but you!
Pretending, right? Then I will teach you a lesson today and let you see with your own eyes how big the gap between the two families is!
Chen Wenhai forced a smile: "Wenshan, look at what Xiaodong said, and he broke it off! After several years of not seeing each other, his temper has gotten a lot worse."
"Okay, okay, I'll take the money. You guys who came all the way, don't leave. Stay and eat. It's just a matter of getting a few more pairs of chopsticks."
"Xiaodong, young people should not be too arrogant. Once you have tasted Junlin's food, you won't boast like that."
Chen Dong, who turned around and was about to leave, stopped when he heard this, turned his head and said with a half-smile: "You really want me to attend the wedding? The ugly thing is, if I attend the wedding, you won't be able to hold the wedding banquet."
Chen Wenhai didn't take Chen Dong's words to heart at all. What kind of trouble could a returning bereaved dog cause?
"Haha, Wenshan, take the time to show Xiaodong's brain. This kid is out of character when he comes back. He really thinks of himself as a character."
After saying that, Chen Wenhai walked into the banquet and asked the staff to pick up the money on the floor.
He couldn't bend down to pick up money, especially since the money belonged to Chen Dong's family.
"Dong'er, this money..." Han Mei finally found the opportunity to ask her son.
"Mom, don't worry! It's really different when I come back this time. You can use the money without worry, and there will be even bigger surprises later!" Chen Jiajia took Han Mei's arm and said coquettishly.
The old couple is still a little doubtful about Chen Dong, but they are very confident about their daughter.
Since the daughter has said so, they will no longer pursue it.
"Dong'er, what you just said was serious. No matter how much trouble you make, as a junior, you shouldn't talk to your second uncle like this. If you want to fall out, it's my fault!" Chen Wenshan scolded, but there was no reproach in his eyes. meaning.
Although Chen Dong's approach is not ethically justified, it does relieve anger!
Unconsciously, the son has become his father's big tree, able to protect his father from wind and rain.
"Dad, if others respect me a foot, I respect others a foot! Chen Wenhai's family does not deserve my respect." Chen Dong said.
"Hey, what do you mean when you just said that the wedding banquet can't be held? You can't make a big fuss about the wedding! Don't make your relatives laugh!" Chen Wenshan still felt that it would be safer to give this warning. Somehow, he felt that this time his son I came back much more courageous than before.
"Don't worry, I can attend their wedding. It's an honor that Chen Wenhai's ancestors earned in eight lifetimes!" Chen Dong said proudly.
'Snapped'
"You brat, he is your second uncle, and his ancestor is your ancestor! That's nonsense!"
Chen Wenshan slapped his son on the back of the head, instantly knocking the proud Chen Dong back to his original state.
"Slip of the tongue, slip of the tongue..."
Chen Dong smiled. Although he was beaten by his father, he felt very warm in his heart.
This feeling was something he couldn't experience in the world of cultivation.
Soon, Chen Dong's family entered the wedding banquet venue.
The whole venue was very lively, and it attracted a lot of attention when Chen Dong's family entered.
They looked at Chen Dong's family with different expressions.
surprise.
dislike.
disdain.
pity.
Almost instantly, Chen Dong's family became the talk of everyone at the wedding banquet. People who didn't recognize Chen Dong looked puzzled, and after asking about it, their eyes turned to ridicule.
"Mr. Chen Wenshan, right? Your family's place is here. Please come with me."
A waiter came over and took Chen Dong's family to the most remote corner.
"That's too much! We are from the same family after all, how dare he do this to us!" Chen Jiajia jumped angrily.
She had worked as a waitress at the Junlin Hotel, so she naturally knew what this table represented!
For a wedding banquet of the size of the Junlin Hotel, from setting up the wedding banquet to emceeing the ceremony, etc., the entire wedding requires a lot of wedding company personnel.
And this table is exactly the banquet prepared for wedding guests, not even the last one!
It's obvious that this is to make Chen Dong's family look bad.
"Jiajia, sit down! Don't worry, he will take the initiative to invite us to the front."
Chen Dong smiled slightly, opened the seat for his parents and let them sit down.
"Let me go, they actually sat down! They didn't even give up for the sake of a meal!"
"Shh, keep your voice down, don't let him hear it, be careful he comes to borrow money from you!"
"It seems that Chen Dong hasn't been doing well after being missing for three years. Look, he came to the wedding banquet with a snakeskin bag. Is he planning to collect the rags?"
"Maybe they want to take some food home with them. After all, they can only eat Junlin's food once in their life."
Some relatives who knew Chen Dong spread gossip without mercy at all, and every word was like a knife.
Especially the snakeskin bag in Chen Dong's hand became the focus of ridicule.
Although Chen Wenhai and his family were greeting the guests, their thoughts were always on Chen Dong's family. Seeing everyone constantly teasing them, a smile appeared on their lips.
"Xiaodong, why don't we leave." Han Mei was afraid that her son couldn't stand the stimulation, so she took the initiative to speak.
"It's okay, I've experienced situations worse than this, it's nothing!" Chen Dong comforted him with a smile.
At this time, a white-haired old man walked over slowly.
Chen Wenshan stood up quickly when he saw this: "Third uncle, why are you here? Xiaodong, Jiajia, call Third Grandpa quickly!"
"Third Grandpa~"
Chen Dong and Chen Jiajia also stood up to say hello.
"Hey, sit down, sit down!"
The old man had a kind face and motioned for Chen Dong and the others to sit down. He looked at Chen Dong with a kind face: "It'll be good to come back. It'll be good to come back! Xiaodong, I watched you grow up. Grandpa knows that you are unhappy." Damn, your parents have not had a good life these years, so as your son, you must be filial to them when you come back."
Facing this old man, Chen Dong felt grateful.
The third grandfather did not live a wealthy life, but three years ago when Chen Wenshan came to borrow money, he still took out a pension of 20,000 yuan without saying anything.
Later, Chen Dong's debt to loan sharks broke out, and the old man never came to ask for money.
Chen Dong's face was full of respect: "Third Grandpa, don't worry, I am coming back this time to make up for my past mistakes."
"Okay, the prodigal son never comes back with gold. You're still young, and it's not too late! Come to grandpa's house when you have time. I remember that you like the braised pork I made the most. Grandpa will cook it for you!" The third grandpa's face was full of smiles.
"Okay!" Chen Dong nodded heavily.
The old man chatted with Chen Wenshan for a few more words before preparing to go back.
"Third Grandpa, please wait a moment!"
At this time, Chen Dong called to the old man and put the snakeskin bag on the table.
This scene caught everyone's attention.
What to do?
The food hasn't been served yet, so we can't pack it away.
Amid everyone's curiosity, Chen Dong deliberately said loudly: "Third Grandpa, back then you provided help in times of need, and Xiaodong has been anxious for your kindness! Now that I'm back, it's time to repay you!"
"You lent me 20,000 back then! I'll pay you back 40,000 now!"
With that said, Chen Dong turned over the snakeskin bag.
The originally noisy wedding scene fell silent in an instant!
