Bring the system to pretend

Chapter 81: The Snobbish Uncle

At eleven o'clock in the morning, in Anhe Town, a certain two-story building.

At this moment, the outer courtyard of the building is full of wine tables, which looks very festive.

Ling Chen and Shen Lanying walked all the way, greeted many villagers, and then walked into the building with smiles.

Ling Chen's uncle is a simple-looking, somewhat honest middle-aged man. He also changed into a more formal attire for his birthday today. smile.

When Ling Chen and Shen Lanying walked in, Shen Congde was taken aback, and immediately went up to greet him: "Oh, Xiao Chen is back today too, I haven't seen you for two months, he looks even more handsome!"

"Uncle made fun of me again, he is in good spirits today!" Ling Chen grinned and said familiarly.

"You two, uncle and nephew, chat slowly, and I'll help with the cooking." Shen Lanying was obviously very familiar with Shen Congde's family, and after saying a word with a smile, she helped to cook.

Ling Chen gave Shen Congde a helpless smile, sat aside and chatted with Shen Congde.

It is said that the elders ask the younger ones the same questions, Shen Congde is no exception, from studies to love, Shen Congde basically asks everything, some questions even make Ling Chen blush and speechless.

Time flies by, more and more relatives come over, and the birthday luncheon is about to begin.

At this moment, a car slowly stopped at the door of Shen Congde's house, and then two figures got out of the car one after the other, and walked towards the inside of the hall.

Ling Chen took a look, his face was a little unnatural, it was his uncle and aunt who came, two snobs who were interested in money.

Ling Chen didn't like these two people since he was a child. For some benefits, he often let his mother and uncle take the blame. A few years ago, after Shen Chengwen joined a certain company and became a supervisor, he became even more cold-blooded and ruthless. When they died of illness, neither of them came back to take a look, which was extremely unfilial.

It was also because of this incident that the mother and the two had a very stiff quarrel, and they would not talk to each other even during the Chinese New Year.

Today, the two of them came back on their uncle's birthday, which surprised Ling Chen a little, but Ling Chen knew that according to the temperament of these two people, they must have some purpose for coming back this time, otherwise they would not come back after the death of their grandfather. How could he come back on uncle's birthday?
Holding a small box in his hand, Shen Chengwen stepped forward to congratulate him: "Brother, happy birthday."

"So it's Chengwen, sit down quickly." Shen Congde stood up and greeted him with a smile.

Shen Chengwen didn't sit down, but looked at Ling Chen next to him, and sneered, "Hey, isn't this Lan Ying's son, what's the matter? I can't stay at school anymore, so I'm back?"

Because of the bad relationship with Ling Chen's mother, he also felt vaguely dissatisfied with Ling Chen. In addition, his son only passed the third grade, while Ling Chen passed the heavy grade. It made him even more unhappy.

"Chengwen, how do you talk? I celebrate my birthday today, and Xiaochen asked for leave today and came back from school to visit me." Shen Congde frowned, and softly reprimanded Shen Chengwen.

He is also aware of the conflict between Shen Chengwen and Shen Lanying, but he doesn't want the grievances between the elders to involve the children.

"Really? I wonder if he and his poor mother can give you something, maybe some rice or something?" Shen Chengwen looked at Ling Chen with some disdain, and sarcastically said.

"Chengwen, if you do this again, I will get angry. The gift is not about the value, but the thought. You are such an old man, why bother with Xiaochen?" Shen Congde said with some dissatisfaction.

At this time, Shen Lanying also came out of the kitchen. She heard all the words before. To be honest, she is very angry now.

Ling Chen narrowed his eyes slightly, stared at Shen Chengwen, and asked indifferently: "Hearing what my uncle said, it seems that you brought some incredible gift?"

"Of course!" Shen Chengwen glanced at Shen Lanying arrogantly, then nodded, with a hint of arrogance on his face.

The wife next to him also showed a proud smile, and said to Shen Congde: "Brother, Chengwen knows that you like jade, and for your birthday, he specially prepared a jade pendant."

"It's fine to come to the birthday lunch, why bring such an expensive gift?" Shen Congde said with some embarrassment.

"Brother, what you said is wrong. Your birthday is so grand. If you don't prepare something good, I'm sorry for you." Shen Chengwen bit the word 'sorry' very hard, obviously Said that Shen Lanying had no gifts to give.

As soon as these words came out, many relatives looked over here, and Shen Lanying next to her was even livid with anger. Shen Chengwen's words clearly mocked him for not bringing any good gifts.

Seeing this scene, Shen Chengwen sneered in his heart, and quickly opened the small box in his hand.

Suddenly, a burst of emerald light shines out from the box, clear and crystal clear, as transparent as water!
"Oh my god, isn't this a water species of emerald?"

"As far as I know, water-type jadeite ranks third in the rank of jadeite. Such a small pendant costs at least tens of thousands!"

"Since becoming the director of a certain company, Cheng Wen has become a lot richer!"

.........

Looking at the aquatic jadeite in the gift box, some relatives who knew the goods all exclaimed, and cast a touch of envy towards Shen Chengwen.

Hearing this, Shen Chengwen and his wife were so comfortable, their proud tails were almost raised to the sky.

"Chengwen, this... is this gift a little expensive?" Shen Congde's eyes were a little hot as he stared at the water jade pendant.

He really likes jadeite, because jadeite symbolizes peace and tranquility and can give him great spiritual sustenance.

"Brother, you're too out of touch, it's only tens of thousands of dollars, it's no big deal." Shen Chengwen glanced at Shen Lanying proudly, waved his hands indifferently and smiled.

Some other relatives are a little jealous, tens of thousands of yuan is already a year's salary for them.

Ling Chen looked at his mother, who had an extremely ugly complexion, and there was a trace of coldness in his eyes.

Looking at it like this, Shen Chengwen and his wife came back today not only for other purposes, but also to humiliate his mother!
"Chengwen, I like this gift, thank you!" Shen Congde smiled loudly, and took the water jadeite pendant a little fondly.

Shen Chengwen smiled lightly, and then immediately cast his eyes on Shen Lanying: "Lan Ying, today is my brother's birthday, what good present did you and your son bring?"

As soon as the sound fell, the eyes of the relatives fell on Shen Lanying and Ling Chen, and there was something wrong with each of them.

They all knew about the disagreement between Shen Chengwen and Shen Lanying. Shen Chengwen prepared such a generous gift today, obviously because he wanted to step on Shen Lanying and Ling Chen in front of relatives and friends.

So here comes the question, what gift did Shen Lanying and Ling Chen prepare for today?
