Chapter 311 -276: Loving and Killing Each Other_4
Old Shen and Ms. Li got along quite well with the eldest uncle and his wife, sharing common topics and maintaining good relations, so the pleasure of the trip significantly increased.
Hearing that they could enjoy a free trip for 2-3 weeks, Zheng Feng and He Juying immediately became unsettled. Since the eldest uncle’s family was already included, why not hitch a ride with us?
Neither had ever gone out for fun. When they last saw the photos Shen Heping and Li Hongjuan shared from their trip to Sanya, they were filled with both envy and an itch to go.
Zheng Feng and He Juying were about to speak when Shen Yuan, seizing the initiative, said, “I’ve also thought about including Third Uncle and Uncle Yaode’s family.”
Zheng Feng and He Juying’s eyes brightened. Shen Yuan, the eldest nephew, was considerate enough to take into account even those with whom he had grievances.
“But,”
“Uncle Yaode runs a car wash, and Third Uncle manages a factory. They can’t leave these businesses unattended, so I think it’s better to wait until you’re retired to go together.”
“…..”
Having been played like that, Zheng Feng and He Juying’s faces immediately darkened.
If they wouldn’t include us, just say it straight out, no need for sugarcoated words.
Shen Yuan’s words took them on an emotional rollercoaster, almost like a pre-trip journey.
For relatives like these, even if you send them on a free trip, they might not be grateful.
And if Auntie hadn’t been so bossy just now, Shen Yuan wouldn’t have toyed with their emotions.
It was just deserts.
Shen Heping and Shen Jianwei both breathed a sigh of relief. From their regular interactions, they knew the character of these women. Traveling with such people would be anything but enjoyable.
Shen Wei, on the other hand, thought his cousin was still the same mischievous kid he had been.
Realizing the trip was no longer a possibility, Zheng Feng and He Juying’s enthusiasm for making small talk greatly diminished, their gaze shifting regretfully to their own child.
When will you grow up and start earning money? You must make more than Shen Yuan in the future and regain our family’s honor!
Of course, thoughts are just thoughts, and reality is reality. They themselves felt this dream was rather naive. Dealing with assets worth hundreds of millions, or even billions, was not so easily achieved.
Life isn’t a viral short video; not everyone can afford a Maybach. They struggled to earn a few hundred thousand a year, let alone aspire to millions or more.
Shen Heping and Shen Jianwei, the two elder brothers, were quite satisfied, already discussing which city to visit first on their trip.
Soon after, the eldest aunt and Ms. Li Hongjuan one by one brought dishes to the table, and everyone started to take their places at the table.
Due to the number of guests, two tables had been prepared: one for adults and one for children.
Last year, Shen Yuan sat at the kids’ table, and he preferred to do so this year too, but Shen Jianwei insisted that he sit at the adults’ table.
Shen Yuan excused himself, “Eldest uncle, I have matters to attend to this afternoon, so I can’t drink at lunch.”
“It’s fine, you don’t need to drink to sit here. Let the kids sit at the other table.”
Shen Jianwei insisted.
Hearing this, Shen Yuan simply took a seat. Once the eldest aunt had finished bringing all the dishes and sat down, hearing about the travel plans, her mood became excited and expectant.
For her generation, opportunities and time to travel were too scarce. From childhood to old age, it seemed like they were always struggling and striving.
For themselves, for their children, for their parents. When they finally retired, they had to take care of their grandchildren.
Now, with their daughter-in-law on maternity leave, even if they went out to play for half a month, it wouldn’t be an issue.
“Yuan, I can’t thank you enough. I don’t even know what to say,” said the eldest aunt, clearly moved.
“What’s there to say? I used to eat the chili stir-fried pork and steamed ribs you made all the time when I was little,” said Shen Yuan with a grin. “Whenever I had nowhere to eat, I’d go to the eldest uncle’s, and whenever I got picked on, I’d run to Brother Wei. You all took care of me in the past.”
Speaking of which, Brother Wei proudly interjected, “Remember that time you got into a fight with a kid a grade higher than you and accidentally fell into the dry squat toilet at the staff quarters? I was the one who pulled you out.”
“Ugh.”
Shen Yuan felt somewhat embarrassed, “Brother Wei, you still remember that?”
Shen Jianwei then slapped the back of Shen Wei’s head, “We’re eating, why bring that up?”

Having been hit, Shen Wei wasn’t done yet. As soon as the sister-in-law finished soothing the child and stepped out, Shen Yuan immediately tattled, “Sister-in-law, I have to tell you, Brother Wei had a crush on a girl next door when he was in junior high. He’d spend all his pocket money buying snacks for her.”
The sister-in-law, being in the police force, immediately raised her eyebrows and interrogated, “Shen Wei, is this true?”
Shen Wei: “…..”
After this commotion, the atmosphere in the room gradually warmed up, and simultaneously, everyone’s view of Shen Yuan’s family began to change.
More or less, they felt a sense of regret, lamenting that they hadn’t fostered better relations with each other. If they had, given Shen Yuan’s way of doing things, he surely wouldn’t have let them down.
Just looking at the eldest uncle’s family, the gifts alone were worth 20-30 thousand, let alone a 2-3 week national trip that would easily cost tens of thousands, and that was just the beginning.
