Trading system, I exchanged vegetables for golden pills.

When they got out of the car, they found that both vans had flat tires.

"What a piece of junk! It broke down at the crucial moment!" The white-haired youth kicked the wheel of the broken bread cart in anger.

The recoil from his leg made him wince in pain again.

Everyone looked at each other, at a loss for what to do.

With a flat tire, forget about chasing after people; let's figure out how to get the car fixed first.

That's really weird, how come both cars had flat tires out of nowhere?

......

Seeing that no one was following, Mr. Ye breathed a sigh of relief, and the pressure instantly lessened a lot.

He's not one to engage in high-speed urban racing right after picking up his car.

Ye's father drove smoothly to his second uncle's house, where his second uncle was already waiting.

When he saw the red Wrangler, he couldn't help but click his tongue and say, "Hey brother-in-law, not bad! You've even got an off-road vehicle, and a red one at that, so flashy!"

Mr. Ye waved his hand with a smile: "What do you know? This is called fashion!"

"Yes, yes, stylish! Girls love this kind of flashy car!" Uncle commented.

Ye's mother glared at him: "Do you think I'm deaf?"

"Hehehe, come on, come upstairs. You guys really came all this way, why bring gifts? It's too formal!" Second Uncle smiled and accepted the two gift boxes from Ye Chen's hands.

As I went upstairs and entered the house, my second aunt came out of the kitchen carrying a plate of food.

She smiled and exchanged pleasantries with Mr. and Mrs. Ye for a while!

Mother Ye then followed her second aunt into the kitchen to help with the cooking.

"Why did you come to the county town?" Auntie asked in confusion.

"Your brother-in-law ordered a car and is coming to pick it up today!" Ye's mother didn't hide anything; there was no point in hiding such a thing.

"You finally bought a car? My brother-in-law finally bought a car! That's great news! What kind of car did you buy?" My second aunt said with a smile, but she sounded a little jealous.

"Sigh, it's just an SUV, and he insisted on choosing a red one, but as long as he likes it, that's fine!" Mrs. Ye said with a smile.

"Red? What good car can you get with red? My brother-in-law is really something, he can't even pick the color when buying a car. Is it a special offer car?" A strange look flashed in my second aunt's eyes.

Mother Ye smiled and said, "Who knows? As long as he's happy, that's all that matters. Anyway, it's not me who's opening it!"

"By the way, I heard from Xiaochen that you bought a house in Lucheng. Congratulations!" Ye's mother asked, changing the subject.

Upon hearing this, my second aunt unconsciously raised her chin: "Yes, we just happened to have some spare money, so we bought it. It's more convenient if we want to visit Tingting, as we'll have a place to stay. It only cost a little over two million. If we weren't worried about not having enough people to accommodate us, and since we don't visit often, I would have considered just building a villa."

"You guys are really amazing! After Tingting graduates, we won't even have to worry about housing!" Ye's mother praised.

My second aunt grinned, her face beaming with satisfaction.

"Tingting has a long way to go before graduation, but Ye Chen has been out of school for so long. Since he's chosen to develop his career in Lucheng, he should buy his own house. That would make it easier for him to find a girlfriend. You parents should try to persuade him!"

Auntie Ye also changed the subject, her words full of concern for Ye Chen and her plans for his future.

Ye's mother had a strange expression. Her dog son had already been bought, right? And paid in full.

Although she hadn't seen it, it shouldn't be too bad. After all, Ye Chen had a seven-figure bank balance, so buying a house should be within his reach...

Since the third brother and his wife went to Lucheng, it was Ye Chen who received them.

The third son's wife was still unaware that Ye Chen had bought a house.

That means Ye Chen didn't want her to know and wanted to keep a low profile.

Since Ye Chen didn't intend to tell his third son's wife, she, as his mother, could understand her son's thoughts.

"Oh well, young people have their own plans, so we won't interfere with his decisions!" Mother Ye said with a laugh.

My second aunt stopped what she was doing: "He's made some money from investments, lives in a friend's villa, and drives an Audi. On the surface, he seems like a successful person, but money can disappear in a minute. Young people don't know how to manage their money. In my opinion, we still need to make him buy a house as soon as possible!"

"Yes, I'll talk to him about it later!" Mother Ye said, still trying to smooth things over.

Yes, yes, you're absolutely right!

To have a pleasant conversation, avoid arguing with people about their opinions; just agree with everything they say.

"Sigh, tell me, why doesn't he buy a house first? Why buy a car? Young people are so concerned about saving face!" Auntie shook her head.

Ye's mother smiled awkwardly; what should she say?

The three men outside the living room all heard the conversation inside; after all, they were cultivators and their ears were very sharp.

Uncle scratched his head awkwardly: "Your aunt is just talking nonsense because she's not worldly. Don't take it to heart. That's just how she is. She's a little vain, but she doesn't have any bad intentions."

"Everyone compares themselves to others, it's nothing, isn't that how women talk?" Mr. Ye shook his head with a smile.

Ye Chen smiled but didn't say anything.

Inside the kitchen, the second aunt was completely unaware that everyone outside had heard her, and continued to chatter on and on.

"Buying a car is easy these days, but maintaining it is the real burden. If my brother-in-law gets a car, the little you earn from farming probably won't even cover the gas costs. Is my brother-in-law planning to come to the city to work?"

"There are fewer and fewer people doing traditional woodworking now, so even if you want to work, there's nowhere to go!" Ye's mother sighed.

"You could do other things too. Your brother-in-law is just getting old, otherwise he could work at our factory. We're hiring recently, but we're only hiring young people. Why don't you go work on a construction site with your brother and carry bricks?"

My second aunt spoke with good intentions.

Ye's mother smiled and nodded.

My second aunt also mentioned how much her factory bonus was, how she was planning to buy a new car but didn't know which BMW, Mercedes-Benz, or Audi to choose, and what brand of cosmetics she had bought...

"The factory gave out 12,000 yuan as a year-end bonus. It's a bit little, but it's enough to buy some food!"

"We're also planning to get a new car, but we're torn between the E300 and the X5!"

"Sister, what brand of foundation are you using? It looks pretty good, it covers up all the freckles on your face!" Auntie continued to compare.

Ye's mother thought to herself, "Does she need to use foundation? Her skin is already so good, it's even better than if she used foundation..."

"Hey, how would I know what brand it is? Xiao Chen bought it, so it's just something to use casually!" Ye's mother said dismissively.

In short, when women get together, they really do talk about everything.

Mother Ye was good at flattering people and didn't undermine her. Second Auntie, as if she had found a "soulmate," kept praising her.

Once you start blowing on it to your heart's content, you can't stop.

My second uncle had already quietly turned on the TV, making sure the volume masked their conversation, otherwise it would have been quite awkward to listen to.
