"I do what I want, and if you have any objections, just shut up."
"Whoever can achieve the top scorer in the college entrance exam, I’ll throw such a big party." Zhang Fugui said angrily.
Upon hearing this, those who originally opposed kept silent, aware of their own children’s capabilities, realizing they definitely didn’t have this skill. What could they do but keep quiet?
They didn’t dare to bicker in front of Zhang Fugui, but that didn’t an they wouldn’t nag in front of Zhang Yu.
Listening to their nagging, Zhang Yu remained calm, knowing they were upset, because it wasn’t a small amount, only fools would be swayed by them.
Wait, Zhang Yu rembered sothing, "Aunt, Uncle, I did quite well in this college entrance exam, and I got the title of top scorer in the city."
"Grandpa wants to throw a big party to celebrate for , as Aunt and Uncle, you would surely be expected to give a fine gift, right?"
Zhang Yu looked at them expectantly, after all, even a small red envelope is money, though if they really did this, he wouldn’t mind complaining publicly.
What? Giving a grand gift, they actually had to send gifts too? Everyone was bewildered, "We actually have to give gifts?"
"Yes, Aunt, Uncle, you earn quite a bit, I only take the college entrance exam once, yet you’re still nickel-and-di about money."
Zhang Yu let out a sigh, "Forget it, I see your expressions, I get it."
"Auntie, I rember when uncle’s nephew got his college entrance exam results, you gave a twenty thousand red envelope."
"Don’t talk about nieces."
"As for uncle, the relatives on little aunt’s side gave quite a sizable red envelope too."
Zhang Yu looked at Zhang Jiang, who was straightforward, "Don’t worry, I’ll give a hundred thousand red envelope."
After all, elder brother had been supportive a lot, and elder brother only has Zhang Yu as a daughter, of course, he couldn’t be stingy.
"Great, thank you, Second Uncle." Zhang Yu thanked with a smile.
Zhang Hujuan and Zhang Hai didn’t expect Zhang Jiang to give such a big red envelope, they were truly shocked.
"Zhang Jiang, why did you..." Zhang Hujuan was very unhappy, she was aware that it was impossible not to give a red envelope but didn’t expect Zhang Jiang to be so generous.
In the past, this red envelope was not a small amount, requiring much consideration, not to ntion now that she didn’t have rental inco and had lost so many properties, just thinking about it made her heart bleed.
Moreover, she just received news that the few little properties transferred to Zhang Yu were unexpectedly going to be demolished.
She originally bought those old and small properties, because they were easy to rent out, hoping perhaps to encounter demolition.
But while the properties were in her hands for so many years, there was no movent, before choosing which properties to transfer to Zhang Yu, she repeatedly checked with Old Fu, selecting those unlikely to be demolished in the next decade.
Yet, the properties that she thought would be demolished showed no signs, while those transferred to Zhang Yu had their household registration frozen, and demolition would be announced at the latest by year-end.
Zhang Hai almost choked upon hearing the amount, while in the past it would hurt a bit, he’d spend the money to please the old man, as long as it made him happy.
But now with little money on hand and the old man unwilling to help, he really had no way.
"This..." Zhang Hai wished he could strangle Zhang Jiang, this guy was riding high, why not consider others.
"Aunt, Uncle, I’m just kidding, don’t take it seriously, it’s fine, no need to give red envelopes." Zhang Yu said calmly.
Zhang Hujuan couldn’t help but breathe a sigh of relief, "Little Yu, how could you scare your Aunt like this."
Zhang Hai also breathed a sigh of relief, "Little Yu, you’re really getting more mischievous."
"Don’t worry, there definitely will be a red envelope."
"After all, it’s such a joyous day with you entering university." Zhang Hai couldn’t afford the money, but he knew that not giving would definitely displease the old man, leading to consequences.
Zhang Hujuan also ca back from the shock of the hundred thousand red envelope, "Yes, yes, Little Yu, how could Aunt not give a red envelope."
The old man was happy that there was a scholar in the family, and she understood why he wanted to throw a big party.
The family had gone through so much recently, making quite a spectacle, now needed good news to boost Zhang Family’s reputation, it was much better if the protagonist was one of them.
Fa was gained, red envelope received, and the old man was paying, the family was thriving, but unfortunately, this had nothing to do with her own family.
However, how much red envelope to give, thinking about it made Zhang Hujuan’s head hurt, giving too little displeased the old man, giving too much made her reluctant.
Not to ntion Zhang Jiang said outright he’d give a hundred thousand, and even Zhang Jiang, who hadn’t achieved much, was giving a hundred thousand, if she gave less, how would the old man feel, surely unhappy.
After thinking for long, the unhappy Zhang Hujuan realized, unless Zhang Jiang didn’t give a hundred thousand, she had to keep up with it.
Unhappy, Zhang Hujuan and Zhang Hai cornered Zhang Jiang, both looking at him with displeasure, the latter understood their intention but didn’t speak.
Finally, Zhang Hujuan and Zhang Hai couldn’t resist, "Why would you give such a big red envelope of a hundred thousand." Zhang Hujuan couldn’t help but ask angrily.
Beside her, Zhang Hai nodded, "Exactly, Second Brother, what are you doing, acting like a big spender."
"I’m not as rich as you." Zhang Jiang scoffed slightly, looking at Zhang Hujuan, "Who suggested buying properties and shops to make money, you made quite a bit, right?"
"When brother-in-law was bullied at work, who stood up?"
"When Zhang Yingkai was bullied at school, who stood up, how did you manage that."
"Little Yu won’t rember, but the old man rembers, do you think he won’t be keeping an eye on you?" Zhang Jiang cald his anger, "Moreover, think how many events have you attended over the years with the Fu Family, giving out so much gift money."
"Little Yu is elder brother’s only daughter, there’ll be many big events in the coming years, if you’re stingy now, what will the old man think."
"Of course, if you feel like you really don’t want to spend the money, it’s fine."
"As for you, little aunt, with issues stirred up by the Zhang Family, haven’t you always been filling the gaps."
"Little aunt, have you never wondered that the old man might be watching your actions."
"Oh, and I know you might say you have no money, but just saw your wife buy a bag worth over ten thousand." Zhang Jiang threw the words and walked away.
If it weren’t about Zhang Yu, he wouldn’t have said it.
Just like that, Zhang Jiang left, Zhang Hujuan and Zhang Hai exchanged glances and dispersed without further words.
