Chapter 309 Have you been lying to us for the past six months?
"What should we do? My bank has been robbed. It's too late for you to say anything now!" Su Yuchen joked as he looked at Su's father's horrified eyes. Zhao Xiaojing couldn't help but curled up the corners of her mouth.
"Don't talk nonsense! Tell me honestly, what are those controversial photos you posted a while ago, with a few men and women in black and white clothes, are you following them in doing some illegal propaganda?" When Su's father said this, Su's mother immediately thought of Su Yuchen's circle of friends and pulled Su Yuchen with a serious face.
"Ah, I didn't block you?" Su Yuchen's smile paused and he blurted out.
Su's mother was talking about a group photo of her and several members of the band in her circle of friends. The people with different opinions were the name of their band. Su Yuchen was stunned. She remembered that she had blocked her parents and colleagues.
"What photo? What is she promoting?" Father Su was confused. Mother Su glared at him and gave him a look to shut up.
"What are those people doing? Where did you get all this money?" Su's mother turned around and continued to ask Su Yuchen.
Seeing that Su's father and mother did not agree on the answer, Su Yuchen looked at Su's mother suspiciously, "Tell me how you saw it first, and I will tell you where the money came from."
"Stupid kid, you think you're right to block me and your dad? I saw it from your cousin!"
"Why did she block us? What did you send?" Su's father asked in confusion.
"Oh, tell me quickly, where did the money come from!" Su's mother interrupted Su's father and glared at Su Yuchen.
"I made money from running the store! The restaurant was opened by me and Mirror together!"
"Opened it together? Can you cook?" Father Su was very surprised.
"You're not at work? Didn't Xiaojing's restaurant open half a year ago? Have you been lying to us for the past six months? Or are you lying to us now?" Su's mother immediately grasped the key point.
Su Yuchen froze instantly, scratching his hair, touching his nose helplessly, and looking around. Zhao Xiaojing saw Su's mother looking at her, and she hurriedly turned her eyes away and continued to stare at the TV.
"Yes! Aren't you at work? Why did you go to open the store again? Don't you say you just got off work every time I call you?" Father Su asked, patting his head.
"Oh~ Don't worry about these details~ Look at you, didn't you just say that I was not good at my job and that it was okay for Jingzi to open a restaurant? Now it's just right, you don't have to worry about me." Su Yuchen said with a stiff face.
"How can this be the same thing?" Mother Su said unhappily, "Your father and I worry about you every day at home, but you didn't tell us about such a big thing as changing jobs? If I hadn't asked you today, how long would you have kept it a secret?"
"What do you mean? You quit your previous job without telling us and now you're opening a restaurant?" Father Su didn't react.
"I wanted to tell you before, but as soon as I mentioned Xiaojing opening a restaurant, you said it was nonsense. You didn't believe anything I said. If I said I would open one with you, you would rush to Jiangcheng and skin me alive," Su Yuchen argued.
"Oh, didn't you know that before? You never said Xiaojing could cook, and now you're going to open a restaurant in the provincial capital and make hundreds of thousands of dollars. Can your father and I believe it?" Mother Su gave Su Yuchen a vicious look, and then hesitated and looked at Zhao Xiaojing. "Xiaojing, Chenzi can't cook either. She opened a restaurant with you. Isn't she just taking advantage of you..."
"Auntie, don't say that. Suozi can't cook, but apart from cooking, she does everything else. You can't open a store just by knowing how to cook. I can only cook. The rest of the dealings with others, entertaining guests, and counting are all done by Suozi. At that time, I didn't have enough funds to open the store, and it was she who took out her own money, so we were able to rent a storefront, renovate it, and open it." Zhao Xiaojing explained hurriedly.
"Really?" Su's mother gradually relaxed her brows.
"She has this ability?" Father Su, confused, finally caught up with the rhythm.
"Why would I lie to you? I am one of her founding fathers. This two hundred thousand is not fake. This is the first time I have earned so much. Now I give it all to you!" Su Yuchen said angrily.
Su's mother's brows finally relaxed, and she glanced at her with a slightly curved mouth, "You really gave it to me?"
"I really give it to you! Are you happy?" Su Yuchen asked expectantly.
"Don't be arrogant when you win and don't be discouraged when you lose! Don't show off just because you make a little money." Su's father pretended to be serious. Although he didn't fully understand, the raised corners of his mouth betrayed his mood.
Su's mother lowered her head and glanced at the balance on her text message. It took her a long while before she answered. She choked up a little when she spoke, "I'm happy that my daughter has made a name for herself. Is she exhausted from running the store?"
How could a mother not be happy when her daughter gave her 200,000 yuan? She said that before, but in her heart she just hoped that Su Yuchen could live a stable life and have no worries about food and clothing. But now that she knew that Su Yuchen had earned so much and done so many things, and she remembered what Su Yuchen had said before about how difficult it was for Zhao Xiaojing to open a store, Su's mother felt distressed again and couldn't help but tear up.
"I'm not tired, I'm fine!" Su Yuchen saw that her mother's eyes were red, and she felt a little choked up for a moment. She finally held back her tears and smiled freely.
"What about the illegal propaganda you just mentioned?" Seeing that the mother and daughter had agreed, Su's father turned around and asked Su Yuchen.
"Oh, that's right! Who are those people? Why are they dressed in strange shapes? You can't go out and make friends just because we can't see us!" When Su's mother was interrupted by Su's father, her tears instantly shrank back and her mind became clear instantly.
Su Yuchen looked at her father as if she had seen a ghost. Her father didn't even understand what was going on, but why was his memory so good?
"What do you mean by weird? That's the makeup we put on for Halloween. Halloween, the Western ghost festival, means we have to put on exaggerated makeup when we go out to play, do you understand?" Su Yuchen avoided the point and talked about something else.
"Celebrating that foreign festival..."
"Oh, I think you look pretty spooky without makeup!"
Su's father and mother were successfully fooled.
Zhao Xiaojing, who was standing by, watched with a smile, and while she was happy for Su Yuchen, her heart also softened.
Her father had passed away as far as she could remember, and she had never had any male elders involved in her growth. Her mother was everything. Although her mother never mentioned it, her mother's relatives always scolded her father and his cold-blooded relatives since she was a child.
Later, her mother passed away and she lived alone. When she occasionally went to her third aunt's house, she would always see her third aunt and sister Yanyan. The two generations and two families were in chaos.
As a result, she naturally had no expectations for married life. She had a hasty and perfunctory marriage in her previous life, and she had no imagination of a complete and happy family, so she had no expectations.
But if she had imagined it, it was probably what Su Yuchen's family looked like now.
Although Su's father and mother were as stubborn as the previous generation and also lectured and scolded Su Yuchen, unlike the oppression of the third aunt, Su's father and mother gave Su Yuchen more self-choice and respect. Although Su Yuchen also talked back, he never made a fuss and crossed the bottom line of Su's father and mother. The family was always harmonious and cared about each other.
