Standard Huawei "Hongmeng Four-Piece Set."
"Oh gosh, this, this is too extravagant..."
The eldest cousin was still dumbfounded with joy, while Auntie had already started waving her hands, feeling embarrassed.
"Auntie, since I’m the elder brother and making money, this is expected, and besides, getting into college deserves encouragement!"
Zhou Wang laughed and took the opportunity to say, "Dear elders, let me put it here, no matter whose kid it is, as long as they get into college, I’ll give them a computer and phone, whether it’s an Apple or Huawei or any brand they want, they can choose!"
"Not only that, but I’ll also cover the tuition for the four years of college, and if they get into a master’s or doctorate program, I’ll cover those fees as well. However, the living expenses will still be up to each family to handle..."
"This proposal from Zhou Wang is great, I support it!"
Old Zhou excitedly slapped the table, expressing his stance first.
Naturally, the relatives were all thrilled, thinking how much money this could save if their kid could make it through four years of college...
Cash Red Envelopes + Abroad Trips + "Family Scholarship Fund," with such a combination, even the little aunt had nothing to say, and turned to get her treasured advanced fruits to entertain Zhou Wang.
But in the end, Zhou Wang still pulled his mom aside to say something privately.
"Mom, since I’ve given you five million, I won’t interfere with how you use that money. I also trust you have the sense for it, so if there are any borrowing situations or anything, you make the decision yourself. But either way, if they come to me, it’s definitely not happening..."
"Don’t worry, Mom has a sense of judgment."
Zhao Guihua was stunned for a moment before she vaguely understood what her son meant, and she immediately nodded.
Everything that needed arranging was arranged, everything that needed saying was said, and Zhou Wang didn’t stay in the room any longer, always wanting to leave some space for his dad and mom to show off a bit on their own...
Of course, faced with increasingly blatant praise from the relatives, Zhou Wang was really starting to get a bit overwhelmed...
The main reason was still that, he had a shy face.
Usually, rural meals didn’t happen so late, but because there were so many people today, and they had to wait for Zhou Wang’s external aunt to come from another place, the meal was finally set for seven o’clock.
After taking a stroll on the ridge, Zhou Wang saw there was still time, so he asked Jiang Qingkui to contact the photography studio they had arranged earlier.
Once the photographer and lighting arrived, Zhou Wang gathered the relatives for a family photo.
However, he underestimated the women’s enthusiasm for taking pictures. What was originally supposed to be a few group shots turned into being dragged out by this group of women for nearly two hours.
If not for the fact that it was getting dark and the aunt’s family was nearly there, and the few men couldn’t help but lose their temper, they might have dragged the photographer on till midnight.
After a bustle, finally, approaching eight o’clock, dinner was served.
Cold Mix Noodles, Clear Soup Dumplings, Fried Crispy Meat, Spicy Boiled Fish, Braised Beef, Braised Lamb, Fried Potatoes paired with Classic Houttuynia Cordata...
These were the most common big dishes in the countryside, but Zhou Wang enjoyed them very much.
Even though Zhou Wang couldn’t handle Houttuynia Cordata, he could definitely deal with cilantro.
But these flavors were hard to come by outside the village, so Zhou Wang cherished these moments...
As the meal reached a climax, the second uncle-in-law sipped blissfully on the Moutai Zhou Wang brought and suddenly said with some concern, "I’m afraid Zhao’s third family won’t back down so easily, will they?"
The lively atmosphere at the table suddenly paused.
"Brother-in-law, we’re in a time governed by law now, no need to worry, I doubt they’d dare to act recklessly!"
Having drunk a bit, Zhou Dajun waved his hand and said, "If anything happens, we’ll just call the police!"
"I’m afraid it’s not that simple, you know. Zhao Deli is actually a bully, fearing the strong and taking advantage of the weak. He’s been thoroughly embarrassed by Zhou Wang today, so he probably won’t retaliate much after being dealt with ."
Upon hearing this, Third Uncle-in-law bitterly smiled and objectively analyzed, "However, his elder brother Zhao Dezhu is a different story. We just worry they might not reason with us..."
"Yes, that’s precisely what I’m worried about, Zhao Dezhu acting out!"
The second uncle-in-law immediately chimed in, "Zhao’s third family has five sons, the others aren’t bad, but Zhao Dezhu truly has some fierceness. Back when Zhao Shusheng started with construction, Zhao Dezhu followed him, but..."
Listening to the second uncle-in-law vividly describe some stories about Zhao Dezhu, even the fearless and daring little uncle remained silent, only revealing a slight smile.
It’s already 2024, after all the "anti-gang crime" campaigns, where are there so many tough guys left?
Anyone who’s gotten this far through all that craziness and is still doing fine outside is not only ruthless but also smart.
Nevertheless, Zhou Wang did not interject. He just looked at the time, pondering that Zhao Shusheng likely already checked into his situation.
But given that Zhao Shusheng definitely looked into his case, this assumption wasn’t quite appropriate.
Divine Fortune Halo indeed lived up to its name, and Zhou Wang experienced yet another "wish-fulfillment" illusion. Just as he had the corresponding thought, a knock had already come at the door...
