Outsider: The Fifth Young Master of the Kang Family

Chapter 297 Pretending to be a Rich Man

"What? They want us to lend them our house and have our whole family serve as servants for them?"

During dinner, Lao Dou told everyone something. His old colleague Liao Bowei came to visit him with his son. It turned out that Liao Bowei's son Liao Xiong had a rich girlfriend when he was studying abroad. He was afraid that he was not worthy of her, so he lied that he was also a rich second-generation. Now his girlfriend was coming to visit him, so he and his son had no choice but to ask Lao Dou for help.

A Yao looked reluctant, "Don't you think it's ridiculous, old man?"

"Yes, Dad. If other people knew about this, they would definitely laugh at us. It would be so embarrassing." Sachiko also disagreed.

"Aliao has been very kind to me. Shouldn't I give him this face?" Of course, the old man knew that this was ridiculous, but he owed Liao Bowen a big favor. A favor is bigger than a debt, so he would sell his pot to pay for it.

"Yes, when your uncle just started working as an accountant in the teahouse, he once went to the bank with Uncle Liao to deposit money. Who would have thought that they would be robbed halfway on the way. The thief took out a knife and was about to stab your uncle. Fortunately, A Liao pushed him away with one hand and blocked the knife himself. He was covered in blood." The nanny was telling everyone the past events between your uncle and Liao Bowen.

Everyone was surprised when they heard this. Xianglan sighed, "I've been married to the Kang family for so many years and this is the first time I've heard of this."

Even the big boss Guang sighed: "Don't mention it, my wife, I grew up in this family and this is the first time I've heard of it."

"A Guang, you were still very young at that time and had just started primary school, so of course you didn't know." The old man responded to the elder Guang, and then said: "A Liao was almost 40 years old like you when he got married, and he was 42 years old when he had his son, A Xiong. I heard A Liao say that he even sold his house for his son's education, which can be said to be bankrupt. He wants to enjoy his life earlier now, so shouldn't I help him?"

Kang Qirui thought about it and said, "I don't think I can help you with this. Can you deceive people forever by pretending to be rich? If they get away with it this time and get married, what will happen next? There will always be a day when they are exposed. What will you do then? Divorce? Or do you think that now that the matter is settled, people will have to forgive your lies?"

"Oh, do you know? Alyo used to be a fat guy, but now he is so thin that I think he weighs less than 100 pounds. How can I refuse him? Let them handle the future matters themselves, and we just need to get through this time. Just consider it as me begging you, okay?" said the old Dou.

"Master, please don't say that. We are all family. If you ask us for help, we will shorten our lives." The second sister-in-law said quickly, nodding her head in agreement. And Grandpa also said, "I am a loyal daughter. Your business is my business. I will definitely be filial and support you."

When it comes to filial piety, Big Boss Guang is not far behind. He said, "Let's not talk about anything else. Don't argue with me about this. When it comes to filial piety, I am the most filial. I will definitely help you, old man." Then A Yao, who had opposed at the beginning, also nodded and agreed. Since the four big bosses all agreed, Kang Qirui was powerless and he could not refuse even if he wanted to.

After dinner, everyone hadn't watched TV for long in the living room when they saw the second brother and his wife change into a suit, wearing sunglasses and carrying a briefcase and walking out of the room. "You two have nothing to do, so you go and do MLM?" The eldest brother said with a smile.

The second brother got angry when he heard this. He said angrily, "What kind of pyramid scheme is this? It's ridiculous and too much." Then he turned to his father and said, "I'm not like some people who only talk. I do practical things. Take a look at this."

The old man took a document handed over by the second brother and read out: "'Role Arrangement List for Acting as a Rich Person', not bad, not bad, you two in-laws are doing things in a decent way."

"Of course. If you don't make it clear who will play who, there will be a 'clash', so you have to write it down clearly and make the arrangements clear." The second sister-in-law said proudly.

"Second sister-in-law, aren't we all playing servants? Are there different roles for servants?" Xianglan asked in confusion, and the others were of the same opinion. The old man waved his hand to signal everyone to be quiet, and then explained: "Sister-in-law, you can't say that. There are many different types of servants."

Everyone understood what was said, and they gathered around to see what roles they were assigned to play. A Yao took the document from his father and read, "The father is the housekeeper, and the mother is the cook." According to the second brother's arrangement, the eldest brother is the flower king, A Zu is the driver, Xiang Lan and A Yao Xingzi are both handymen, Wan Ling is a private caregiver, Kang Qirui is a work assistant, he and his second sister-in-law are both personal secretaries, and Diana is responsible for taking the children out to play for a day.

"Second brother and second sister-in-law, I think you two don't look like secretaries, do you?" Sachiko was not satisfied with her role positioning.

"How is it different?" The second brother was anxious, and the second sister-in-law fanned the flames: "Husband, she looks down on us. What do you mean? I can't think you can do it?"

"That's right, you look down on us?" Er Lao said. Madam quickly pulled them both and said with a smile: "A Zong, don't be angry, I think they are right, you two really don't look like secretaries. If A Yao and Xingzi play the roles, it will be almost the same." Finally, under the coordination of Lao Dou Madam, A Yao and Xingzi exchanged roles with Er Lao and Er Sao. After the roles were determined, everyone began to transform the Kang family mansion, removed all the photos related to the Kang family and replaced them with photos of the Liao family's father and son, and hung a plaque of "Liao's House" at the door. For the costumes, Xiyangyang Film and Television Company borrowed the servant costumes of the crew of the rich family drama.

After everything was ready, the Liao family father and son were called to Kang's house to start rehearsals, with A Zu acting as the chief director of the rehearsal. "Can you keep your chests up and your stomachs in when you walk?" After the Liao family father and son changed their clothes, A Zu saw them walking with their backs hunched and gave them instructions, "Now let's practice how you eat, get ready."

"Master, eat, young master, eat." Er Lao, Er Sao and Xiang Lan entered into their roles as handymen and shouted in unison, shocking Liao Bowei. Just the eating item took a long time of rehearsal before Liao Bowei could barely remember all the etiquette.

After three days of rehearsal, it was time for Liao Xiong to bring his girlfriend home. He took his girlfriend to Kang's house early in the morning and said, "Meizi, we're here. This is my home."

"Is this your house?" Meiko observed from the doorway for a long time. "Aren't you in the real estate business? Why does this house look so old?"

"It's because it's old that it's valuable." Liao Xiong answered according to the rehearsed speech: "This is our Liao family's ancestral home. My grandfather's grandfather's generation built it. More than ten years ago, it was rated as a cultural relic protection site. If this house is sold now, it will cost at least 500 million."

Meiko nodded and walked into the living room. When the Kang family saw her, they all bowed and shouted, "Yokoso." Liao Xiong had heard that her girlfriend was a Japanese-Chinese, so A-Zu asked everyone to welcome her in Japanese. Meiko was very happy to hear that. She smiled and said, "They are all your servants? Why do you have so many servants when you have so many people in your family?"

"Of course." Liao Xiong nodded. "You know, my mother passed away and I'm studying abroad, so my father is the only one left at home. Our house is so big, it must take so many people to take good care of him."

"Yes, yes." The boss nodded and said, "I usually accompany him to play mahjong and fish, so that the master can kill time."

Liao Xiong held Meizi and introduced the servants to her. "The men here are the housekeeper Kang Bo, Hua Wang Guang, the handyman Zong, the secretary Yao, the driver Zu and the assistant Rui. The women here are the cook Lian Auntie, the handyman Lan, the nanny Chan, the secretary Xing and the nurse Ling."

After introducing the servants, Liao Xiong took Meizi to visit the "Liao Residence". The more she looked, the more satisfied she was, especially the patio garden. She liked it very much. At lunch, she had a very good appetite and ate two large bowls of rice. However, Uncle Liao almost exposed himself during the meal. He saw Meizi eating happily and started to eat a lot. He didn't have the temperament of a rich family patriarch at all. Fortunately, Meizi was also eating a lot so she didn't notice his eating habits.

After finishing the meal, Meizi suggested, "Axiong, how about we go for a walk together? This is my first time in Guangzhou and I really want to see what Guangzhou is like."

"That's fine." Liao Xiong naturally didn't care. He nodded and said, "As the saying goes, take a walk after dinner and you'll live to be ninety-nine."

"Walk?" Meiko was stunned and asked in confusion: "Didn't you say that your family has an extended version of Lincoln? It would be great if we could drive it for a spin."

"Did I mention that our family has an extended Lincoln?" Liao Xiong smiled awkwardly, then said, "I remember that I lent that car to a relative to transport sand last week, right?"

Uncle Liao didn't react for a while, and the second brother standing beside him quickly said, "Yes, it's my cousin, he borrowed it to transport sand." Meizi nodded half-believingly, and Liao Xiong quickly asked, "Can we take another car?"

"What car are we taking?" asked Miko.

"How about taking the Mercedes?" Liao Xiong replied. When Meizi nodded, he looked at A-Zu and said, "Driver, please help me drive the Mercedes over here."

"Mercedes-Benz? The one with remote control?" A-Zu was already so defeated by Liao Xiong, where could he go to give them a Mercedes-Benz?

Liao Xiong looked pleadingly and said, "There are so many cars at home, I don't know if it's remote controlled. Anyway, go to the parking lot and look for it. If you find it, drive over here. Do you want me to look for it myself? You are a driver, so hurry up." (End of this chapter)
