Chapter 39 The main meaning of growing up is to give parents face (Ch 39)

Sleep till the morning,

Qi Jia was awakened by the noisy chatter from his cousin’s house next door.

Weddings in rural areas are rarely held in hotels.

Usually, they invite a country chef to prepare a banquet at home.

The day after tomorrow is my cousin’s wedding.

So in the past two days, many relatives came to help early in the morning.

Get up and go downstairs,

Seeing my mother sitting alone on the sofa watching TikTok,

Qi Jia shouted,

“Mom, where is Dad?”

“He took his sister and brother out to play.”

My younger brother and sister are the children of Qi Jia’s younger sister. My younger sister and her husband work in Pengcheng.

So the kids were left at home with their parents.

As he was talking, he saw his father coming back with two children, looking gloomy.

When the two children saw Qi Jia get up, they happily rushed over to him and called him uncle, asking him to hold them.

“Who made you unhappy again?”

Seeing that my father looked unhappy, my mother asked curiously.

“Grandma, I know. It was Fugou’s grandfather who laughed at your grandfather, saying that he had no grandson to take care of, so he could only take care of his grandson.”

Before my dad could speak, my one-year-old nephew spoke first.

Qi Jia was speechless after hearing this.

I thought that the villagers were really well fed, so this was a good opportunity to compare themselves with others.

The “Fu Gou” mentioned by my nephew is his nickname, and he is his playmate in the village.

His father is a few years younger than Qi Jia. He was already married when Qi Jia was in high school and now has three children.

“Qi Jia, you are not young anymore. There are no outsiders here today. Tell us the truth. When are you getting married?”

It can be seen that the joke made by the villagers really hurt my father a lot.

They all called him by his first name.

“I don’t feel any rush. I’m still young now.”

If it were Qi Jia, who had accomplished nothing before and was a nobody,

Faced with this question from his father, he certainly wouldn’t dare to answer so casually.

But now he has signed the contract and awakened the system,

He felt that he should speak louder when he was at home now.

“Wait, wait, wait, how long do you want to wait? Look, everyone younger than you in the village is already married.

The child is about to go to primary school. You don’t feel ashamed, but I, your father, feel ashamed when I go out.”

When the father heard his son say this, his temper started to flare up again.

The tone of his voice became a little stiff. Seeing this, my mother winked at Qi Jia and asked him to speak more smoothly.

“Dad, don’t worry, I’ll show you something.”

Qi Jia smiled, not panicking at all. His father didn’t want a grandson.

Instead, it can be a topic of conversation that will make him look good in front of the villagers or relatives.

Then why not just give him something to talk about?

soon,

He carried his backpack downstairs and sat on a chair.

First he took out 30,000 yuan in cash and put it on the table.

“Mom and Dad, this thirty thousand yuan is your son’s gift to you as a gift.”

A thick stack of money was placed on the table. My mother looked a little surprised and suspicious.

“Son, don’t be so stubborn. This isn’t all your wealth, is it?”

“Dad, don’t be anxious. This is what I want to show you.”

Seeing that his father was about to speak, Qi Jia interrupted the spell.

She then took out the contract signed with Jiaxing Media from her bag and handed it directly to him.

Dad took the contract and flipped through it for a while. Mom also came over curiously.

Two little brats, they don’t know what a contract is.

But I know that the pile of red paper on the table can be exchanged for a lot of delicious food in the canteen.

So, they hung on Qi Jia and acted coquettishly, asking Qi Jia to take them to the convenience store.

“Son, why haven’t I heard of this company? Have you been scammed?”

My mother looked at the bright red official seal on the contract, and after being happy, she couldn’t help feeling a little worried.

“Mom, aren’t you following Eternal Love recently?

The heroine in the film, Yang Mi, is from this company.”

Qi Jia explained with a smile,

Although my mother had never heard of Jiaxing Media, Yang Mi knew about it.

So when she heard that her son worked in the same company as her, the worry on her face disappeared instantly.

“It’s better to let your uncle and his men check it.”

The sudden good news still made it hard for my dad to believe.

“Dad, this contract must be real, don’t worry.

But the contract cannot be shown to outsiders because some clauses in it are confidential.”

Qi Jia quickly stopped him and added,

“If you’re still worried, come back on vacation and I’ll take a photo for you at the company entrance.”

Qi Jia had anticipated his family’s concerns before he took out the contract.

Not to mention them, even when you signed the contract, didn’t you feel like it was a dream?

“It’s so important. You have to keep the contract safe. There are many children at home. Don’t lose it.”

Hearing what he said, my father quickly put down the contract.

A relieved smile appeared on his face, and he no longer mentioned getting married early.

After giving Qi Jia some instructions and asking him to keep the contract,

He smiled and took the two children to the store to buy snacks.

It won’t be long.

Qi Jia was washing up on the third floor.

I heard my father’s voice coming from outside.

“Yes, it’s really been signed. I saw the red seal on it, there’s no doubt about it.”

“You don’t even know what a contract is. Oh, it means you can become a big star. You know Brother Hu, right? It’s almost the same as him.”

“It doesn’t matter how much money is made, as long as the child is happy. But it seems that there is some kind of profit sharing, I don’t understand the details.”

“Marriage? There’s no rush. Just let him make the decision. Our family has always been very democratic. We don’t push for marriage.”

The sound was so loud that Qi Jia felt speechless but also very happy.

My dad is a very face-conscious person.

But unfortunately, my sister and I have never done anything to make him proud since we were young.

When I was in school, I couldn’t compare with my cousins, and other people’s walls were covered with award certificates.

There is not even an outstanding student in my family, and I only got a second-tier university in the college entrance examination.

This time, I finally made him proud. If he wants to show off, then let him show off.

…

Less than half a day.

With my father’s unremitting efforts in promoting

Almost everyone in the village knows that Qi Jia will become a big star in the future.

At lunch time,

Everyone congratulated him in advance, saying that a big star was going to be born in his family.

When you become rich, remember to help your family more.

“Have you ever filmed any dramas? Tell me about it.”

My sister-in-law, who had been sleeping until noon before getting up to eat, heard the news.

I was also a little surprised. It was rare for me to speak to Qi Jia.

“I was always a minor actor before. I did film a movie this year, but it hasn’t been released yet.”

Qi Jia took a bite of beef and said lightly.

Having said that,

The girl pouted her lips, twisted her hips, and stopped talking.

I guess he thought Qi Jia was lying to save face, otherwise, if he became a star,

How is it possible that he doesn’t even have a car and wants to borrow his own car when he comes back?

After all, he is a country guy and has never seen the world, so he was deceived so easily.

“Xiao Die, I remember your boyfriend seems to be an artist of Jiaxing?

Introduce him to my brother, maybe they can work together in the future.”

My aunt suddenly said something out of the blue.

“Yes, yes, yes. If Xiaohui hadn’t told me, I would have forgotten about it. Xiaodie, please tell your brother about his WeChat account.”

My uncle also slapped his forehead and urged again.

For a time,

The table fell silent instantly, and everyone looked at the little sister-in-law.

Qi Jia was also a little surprised. He really didn’t expect that his aunt’s boyfriend was also Jiaxing’s.

Unexpectedly, after saying this, Xiao frowned without even raising his eyelids.

He grumbled in dissatisfaction.

“We are not even on the same level, so there is no point in introducing each other.”
