Outsider: The Fifth Young Master of the Kang Family

Chapter 249: Bragging Mother and Son
"Grandma, this restaurant is quite lively."

Although Lao Dou and Ah Zhuan had a quarrel after they recognized each other yesterday, their attitudes became more relaxed after the quarrel. Therefore, everyone in the Kang family also recognized Ah Zhuan's identity. Ah Zu felt that his attitude yesterday was not very good, so when Ah Zhuan and Coco came in, he stood up to pour tea for them and took the initiative to say hello.

"Of course, this is the most crowded place in Yau Tsim Mong." Coco said proudly with a childlike personality.

"You don't have to be polite, just order whatever you like, you don't have to save money for me." Ah Zhuan was also polite at this time, and after she said that, the second sister-in-law was really not polite. After all, in the second sister-in-law's heart, she believed what Ah Zhuan said yesterday, and thought that this little grandma was a rich woman.

The second sister-in-law picked up the menu and started flipping through it. The faster she flipped through it, the more confused she became. She frowned and said, "This menu is so weird? Why are there no meat and all vegetarian dishes?"

Ah Zhuan nodded and said recommendingly, "Yes, the most famous thing here is the vegetarian food." She even touched the head of her father who was sitting next to her, "We have been separated for so many years but can still recognize each other. It can be regarded as the blessing of Buddha, right? So we have a vegetarian meal to thank God for his grace."

The old man was speechless after being touched on the head by her. He looked extremely embarrassed and could only lower his head and drink water to cover it up. The mother and the eldest brother looked at each other, and the eldest brother spoke on behalf of everyone: "It's my duty, it's my duty."

Ah Zhuan suddenly became happy. Seeing that her father was drinking water, she stood up and took the teapot to add water to his cup. Then she habitually said sarcastically, "How is it? Did you guys squander all the money in that Xiguan mansion?"

The old man's face suddenly turned bad. He glared at Ah Zhuan and retorted, "Defeat? How could it be possible to fail? Now it has grown even bigger. It is twice as big as before. It is big and beautiful. You will know when you go back and take a look when you have time."

"Really?" Ah Zhuan paused while pouring the tea, then quickly revealed a happy expression, "So amazing."

When the old man saw Ah Zhuan's expression, his nature came out and he naturally started to brag again, "Now our Kang Family Xiguan Mansion is the largest Xiguan Mansion in the whole of Guangzhou. It has been designated as a national first-class protected cultural relic by the cultural system. Do you know how many people visit it now?"

"Speaking of this Xiguan mansion, I have to talk about my five sons." The old man took a sip of tea to moisten his throat and continued to brag, "Thanks to our ancestors, these five sons are all good. This is the eldest son, A Guang. The eldest and the second son are the boss and the second boss of the catering group headquarters. The eldest sister-in-law Xianglan even went out and opened a chain noodle shop on her own."

"This is my second sister-in-law, A-chan. She's the vice president of the clothing group's head office. But don't underestimate her because she's just a vice president. She's a major shareholder. It's just that she has to take care of her two children, so she handed the management of the company over to someone else."

"Sanzai is a civil servant, and he's being promoted very quickly. I heard he's going to be promoted to director, so he doesn't have time to play with us. This is Sanzai Sachiko, who also owns a company and is the big boss of the confinement center."

"This is the fourth one, A-Zu. He is a little bit behind. He is a small manager in a large international company, and he has no more than 15 employees. Over there is the youngest A-Rui and his wife Wan-Ling. A-Rui is the most like me. He has loved studying since he was a child. Now he is a professor and doctoral supervisor in Shuangyashan University." As a senior player in the bragging world, Lao Dou knows how to brag. What he said is 21% true and % false. Most of the bragging is just a level higher. For example, the second brother is the big boss of the catering group head office. It seems that it is not impossible for you to say that the current Ruhao Tea Restaurant Management Company is a catering group. After all, Ruhao has developed to stores in Guangzhou and franchise stores in Guangdong Province.

Of course, there is some bragging involved, for example, A Yao is still very far from the position of director and Kang Qirui is still very far from the position of doctoral supervisor, but these things are rather vague and difficult to identify.

"Why are you exaggerating so much? Aren't you bragging a bit too much?" The maid whispered in the old father's ear. The old father waved his hands. He was confident that even if Ah Zhuan really went back to Guangzhou, he would not be able to find out the water in his words.

Ah Zhuan was indeed frightened by what her father said. She really didn't hear any big problem in what he said. She saw that everyone was not in a good mood, and several people had dark circles under their eyes, so she decisively changed the subject, "Did you sleep well last night? Why do you all seem so sleepy?"

"Don't mention it. He was just bragging last night. His friend's place is only a few hundred feet away." The mother directly exposed the father's lies. She felt that the father had brought it upon himself. In order to save a little money for the hotel, the whole family had a bad sleep. Even the mother had an opinion, so she didn't give the father face and said it directly.

"Ah Shou, didn't you say your friend is a famous dentist?" Ah Zhuan was very proud and asked deliberately. The old man was embarrassed and continued to drink water without responding to Ah Zhuan's words.

Seeing Ah Zhuan's proud look, the second sister-in-law suddenly said, "By the way, grandma, how about we stay at your place tonight? Didn't you say yesterday that you have several houses and a big villa? It will definitely be big enough to accommodate all of us, hahaha."

Now it was Ah Zhuan's turn to look embarrassed. "You all are going to live with me?" she said in shock.

"Yes. I am so excited that I can stay in a villa halfway up the mountain when I come to Hong Kong City for the first time." A-Zu also strongly agreed with his second sister-in-law's suggestion. He was very excited that he could save hotel money and live in the most famous villa halfway up the mountain in Hong Kong City.

"It's my first time living in a villa, too, Mom." Coco didn't know if she was being deliberate or just pretending to be stupid. Second Sister-in-law and Grandpa didn't understand what she said. Grandpa quickly made up for it, saying, "What she meant was that it was her first time living in a villa with so many people."

She paused, as if she remembered something, and said, "Let me call my housekeeper first. Uncle Dong moved in a few days ago, and I don't know if he has left. If he hasn't left, it would be a bit inconvenient. Now that Uncle Dong is here, for his safety, I, as the host, can't just take anyone back. Coco, come with me and make a phone call." As she said that, she pulled Coco out of the private room.

Everyone in the Kang family looked at each other in bewilderment. Ah Zhuan's words were so exaggerated that everyone could tell she was bragging. Uncle Dong was the top man in Gangcheng, so how could he possibly live in her house? Living in the home of an orphan and a widow, wouldn't that just lead to gossip for no reason?
