Outsider: The Fifth Young Master of the Kang Family

Chapter 206 Air Ticket
"Mommy, what's the difference between these recipes that Grandpa mentioned and what I ate at Sister Tiantian's house two weeks ago? If I want to eat these, I might as well stay at Sister Tiantian's house. It's much more fun there."

Tianxiu went to his mother to act like a spoiled child. In his opinion, eating vegetables without meat every day was not as good as what Tiantian had in the countryside. At least hers were authentic, pollution-free green vegetables. He stayed at Tiantian's house for two weeks, and then his second brother and second sister-in-law took him back to continue his cram school. He was unwilling to do this when he just came back. But the second sister-in-law had no choice. She couldn't object to what her father had decided. She could only quietly promise Tianxiu that she would give him extra food, and Tianxiu reluctantly gave up.

Tianxiu had no objections, and so did the others. The color recipe was unanimously approved and implemented in the Kang family. Everyone left the party, some went out, some watched TV.

"Ring, ring, ring~~" the phone rang.

The boss sitting next to the phone picked up the phone and answered: "Hello, who is it?"

"Ah Zu, Diana is calling." The eldest brother shouted loudly after listening for a while. When he shouted, not only Ah Zu came out, but everyone else came out. Especially the second brother and his wife, who were more excited than Ah Zu. When Ah Zu was on the phone, the two of them kept leaning against him, trying to hear clearly what Diana was saying on the phone.

"Hey, hey, hey, can you please stay out of my business?" Seeing this, A-Zu covered the receiver and said helplessly.

"Are you kidding me? You are my younger brother and I am your older brother, can't we show some concern for each other?" The second brother argued unreasonably. The old lady looked at A Zu anxiously. A Zu had no choice but to chat with Diana in front of everyone.

"Ah? You're going to give birth?" As they were chatting, A-Zu suddenly shouted, "I'm going over there? It's too expensive to take a plane."

The second sister-in-law couldn't help herself when she heard this. She grabbed the receiver and said, "Don't take a plane. It's better to take a boat. It's cheaper and you can see the scenery on the sea."

"What time will it be if we take the boat? We should take a plane." My dad also offered his opinion.

Grandpa snatched the receiver back from his second sister-in-law, "My sister-in-law told me to take a boat and my father told me to take a plane. What do you think?"

"What? If I go too late you won't let me be your dad? Okay, okay, I'll go by plane, but I need to prepare. Okay, bye." A-Zu said and hung up the phone.

Seeing him hang up the phone, the old man frowned and said, "A-Zu, giving birth in a foreign country requires the husband to be with you. Why don't you leave right away? What else do you want to prepare?"

"Dad, look at what you said. When my mother gave birth to me, you were still playing chess with the neighbors." Ah Zu's words knocked out Dad directly. Dad took the newspaper and pretended to read it. He was too embarrassed to face anyone.

"A-Zu, your father is right. A woman likes her husband to be with her when she is giving birth. Your father can't do that. You should learn from his lesson instead of following his example." The mother persuaded A-Zu using herself as an example.

"It costs tens of thousands of dollars to go to the United States. How can I get so much money at once?" A-Zu said hesitantly. What he meant by preparation was raising money.

"Yes, it's just tens of thousands of dollars." Dad took away the newspaper and said loudly.

The second sister-in-law thought that the old man was going to pay for it himself, and was about to get jealous, but then she saw the old man stand up and point at the second brother and ask him to pay, and the second sister-in-law's face immediately fell. The second brother said bluntly: "Old man, it's easy for you to say that. Sponsor tens of thousands of yuan. Why don't you pay for it? It's more than ten thousand yuan, not just a few hundred or so." "Actually, there's no need to be so nervous. Just call the fourth aunt and ask her not to have the baby. Anyway, the fourth uncle can't afford it, and no one else will help the fourth uncle." Tianxiu's words were shocking, and for a moment, it was unclear whether he was talking nonsense or mocking everyone for not wanting to help.

A-Zu thought for a moment and said, "Actually, you don't need to donate a lot. All the brothers and sisters-in-law can just donate one thousand yuan each."

"One thousand yuan is not a lot, just give it to him as alms. And then bargain with him and five hundred yuan will be enough." The second sister-in-law discussed with the second brother in a low voice. It would definitely not be possible for them to pay all the ten thousand yuan, but she was willing to pay part of it.

"How can I come up with five hundred yuan? I'll just do my best as a brother. One thousand is one thousand." said the second brother.

The second sister-in-law was about to go back to her room to get the money. A-Zu heard what they were saying and said, "Second sister-in-law, I forgot to tell you that they use US dollars there. US dollars, one thousand US dollars."

"One thousand US dollars?" Not only the second brother and his wife, but everyone else was surprised when they heard what A-Zu said. One thousand Chinese yuan is no problem. One thousand US dollars is more than 8,000 Chinese yuan, and the total amount for the whole family is almost 50,000 yuan. Everyone was immediately unhappy. It's okay to help you, but you can't treat everyone as fools.

But A-Zu seemed not to notice everyone's expressions, and said even more harshly: "Since it has come to this, why don't you do this? You don't want to not see me anymore, do you? For the sake of humanity, why don't you help me get my return ticket as well?"

"Kang Qizu, I really don't want to see you again." The second brother refused without hesitation.

"A-Zu, I think you don't need to come back." Even the big boss Guang said so.

"That's right, stay there and take care of the kids." A Yao said sarcastically and went back to his room.

Everyone gave A Zu a word and went back to their rooms, leaving only Kang Qirui and Zhu Wanling. Seeing A Zu looking at him expectantly, Kang Qirui said, "It's no problem to sponsor you 10,000 yuan. But..."

"But what? Just tell me, I'll agree to it." A-Zu smiled happily. As long as he had money, he could do anything.

"But don't take other people's money. Ten thousand yuan is enough for you to meet Diana. As for the return flight and other expenses, you have to pay for it yourself. This is your childbirth, not everyone else's. You can't let others pay for everything and you don't pay a penny, right?" Kang Qirui said to A Zu earnestly.

A-Zu scratched his head awkwardly, "Okay, I get it. I was just joking with you all, how can you pay for everything? Actually, Diana told me that she would send me a plane ticket, but I...I..."

"Okay, I understand you. I'll give it to you tomorrow." Kang Qirui patted A Zu's thigh. Men have to be proud, and they don't want their wives to think they are useless. That's why A Zu didn't take Diana's plane ticket, and that's why A Zu wanted to extort money from everyone.

The next day at noon, Kang Qirui took the money back and gave it to A Zu, who happily went out to buy a plane ticket immediately.
