Outsider: The Fifth Young Master of the Kang Family

Chapter 64 Sachiko Returns from a Business Trip
"Meeting, meeting."

After dinner that day, the old man called the five brothers of the Kang family to a meeting. When Kang Qirui and his friends came out of the dining room, they saw the old man holding several invitations. Grandpa asked, "Again? What day is tomorrow?"

There was a round of high-priced meal tickets on April 8th. That time, the boss gave the wrong red envelope and took Tianxiu's red envelope. As a result, when Tianxiu went to Liang Bo's wedding banquet, he had no red envelope to give. Liang Bo was so angry that he fainted and was admitted to the hospital. As a result, just a few days later, another stack of high-priced meal tickets came.

"I see. Tomorrow is the 418th. Something will be sent out." The second brother looked at the calendar. It was . He had to send something out no matter what.

After sitting down, the old man said, "This time it's not a handout, it's a draw."

"Drawing lots means 'drawing water'." Er Lao said with a frown, what he meant was to see who is the most unlucky to be the one who gets sucked in.

"If you continue like this, we will be hurt." A Zu said. Last time on the 8th, the Kang family lost almost two thousand yuan.

My father was also helpless, he spread his hands and said: "What can I do? Favors are more important than debts."

"Dad, how about this?" The second brother stood up and said, "Let's combine the small into the big. The whole family will choose a banquet to attend, and then our whole family will give out a packet of red envelopes. Then our Kang family's locust detachment will beat them to a pulp. What do you think?"

"Okay, okay." A-Zu was the first to agree to this mean trick, "Then let's pick the one we hate the most and eat there."

Kang Qirui disagreed, frowning and saying, "Isn't this a bit too much?" He couldn't bear to do this, and the eldest brother Guang also disagreed. The second brother was very excited and said, "This can save a lot of money. The whole family only needs to give one red envelope, and you can take it back when there is wedding wine. Maybe you can even make some money."

The old man was a little tempted, but after thinking it over, he refused: "Zong, some things can't be postponed, such as Mingzai's meal tomorrow."

"Mingzai?" Kang Qirui was confused when he heard the name. How could Mingzai invite his family? Er Lao also said with a puzzled look on his face: "Arsenic Banquet?"

"No, it's because he successfully quit drugs and his new house has been renovated and he's going to move in tomorrow, so they did it all at once. Director Wang talked to me about it and said that Mingzai tricked A Zong into selling drugs and tricked A Rui into buying Buddha statues, but he also learned his lesson. He even compensated us with a big house, asking us to put aside our grudges and support him to help him get out of the quagmire." Dou explained.

Kang Qirui thought about it and decided that since Mingzi wanted to let go of the grudge, then so be it. It was always good to have one less enemy, so he said, "Then let Erlao go. He is the most familiar with him and they have been classmates for decades." Erlao had no choice but to agree.

Just after arranging for Er Lao to go to Ming Zai's wedding banquet, Liang Bo walked in, "God of Wealth Kang."

"Shiqiliang, sit down." Kang Qirui almost couldn't hold back when he was addressed as his father.

"I thought you were still in the hospital on an IV drip." The old man continued to mock Uncle Liang, but Uncle Liang did not respond. He just kept talking to himself, "I will set up a banquet at Fengcheng Food Village tomorrow night. Firstly, it is to celebrate my recovery and discharge from the hospital, and secondly, I want you, the great master, to help me clarify the facts."

The second brother asked doubtfully, "What facts do you want to clarify?"

"Then ask your good son Tianxiu." Uncle Liang stood up and told him everything that Tianxiu had scolded him for.

When my father heard this, he burst into laughter. "Shiqiliang, how can you be so serious with a child? No wonder you are sick."

Uncle Liang said with a wry smile: "Everything your grandson said was taught by you. I won't send the invitation. That's all." After saying that, he left.

After Uncle Liang left, Er Lao suddenly had an idea: "Dad, I have another great plan to kill your son."

"What can we do?" Everyone looked at the second brother.

The second brother walked up to the old man and said, "Nowadays, the red envelopes are usually at market price, and the return red envelopes are also at market price. According to international practice, it is better not to ask for such a large amount, haha." The second brother smiled and continued, "According to the practice in Guangzhou, usually when someone gives you a red envelope, do you have the nerve to open it in front of them? No way? So."

"So there is an opportunity." A Zu immediately understood what the second brother meant.

"Is there an opportunity?" My father didn't quite understand.

"We put some five-dollar or two-dollar bills in the red envelopes so people won't be embarrassed to open them and look. So we just put them in randomly, and when they open the red envelopes after the party, they won't know who put them there." The second brother explained to his father.

Kang Qirui was speechless after hearing this. What was wrong with Er Lao? How embarrassing it would be if he was exposed? Therefore, he firmly objected: "You can't say that. Many wedding gifts are opened on the spot and the red envelopes are returned on the spot. And even if adults don't open them, what if they meet children? What if the children open them? Our Kang family is not short of this little money, Er Lao."

In the end, the old man decided to give out red envelopes normally and not to do anything tricky. After making the decision, he announced the end of the family meeting. After the business was over, everyone turned on the TV and chatted while watching TV. "Oh, I wonder how Chibi Maruko-chan is doing." The eldest brother suddenly sighed when he saw a little girl missing on TV.

"Boss, didn't she call you yesterday? She's on vacation in Hawaii now, so you don't have to worry about her." Kang Qirui said. After Chibi Maruko, a rich girl, acted as a princess and escaped, her parents changed their ways. Now her life is really like that of a princess.

"That's right, boss. You don't have to worry about Chibi Maruko's life." A-Zu nodded and said.

The phone rang. Kang Qirui picked it up. "Hello, who is this? Third sister-in-law? OK, I'll let Third Brother answer the phone." A Yao picked up the phone as soon as he heard it.

"Hey, honey. I'm very good. I go to the same place every day and never go anywhere else. Are you coming back? The flight the day after tomorrow morning? Didn't you say it would take two months?"

"Oh oh oh, okay. I'll pick you up the day after tomorrow morning." A Yao looked like a wife slave.

Kang Qirui saw A Yao's depressed look after he hung up the phone, and couldn't help asking, "Third brother, why do you look like that? Are you unhappy that Third Sister-in-law is coming back?"

"Need I say more? Now that Third Sister-in-law is back, our Third Young Master's single life is over. How can he be happy?" A-Zu spoke the truth in one sentence.

Sachiko has been away on a business trip for almost two months. Although he is being followed by Yumei, Ayao is still free most of the time and can do whatever he wants. Now that Sachiko is back, his wonderful life has returned to the days of being a slave to his wife. "Don't talk nonsense, I'm so happy." Ayao glanced at Yumei who came out to watch TV and said immediately. If he was considered not to want his wife to come back, he would have a hard time.

"Yumi, I'm looking forward to Sachiko's return as much as I am looking forward to the stars and the moon." A Yao quickly expressed his loyalty.

"I believe you, cousin-in-law." Yumei nodded and said she believed, but she rubbed her hands unconsciously. "You?" Yao knew what this gesture meant, but he had no choice but to let Yumei blackmail him.

"What do you want?"

"Thank you, cousin-in-law. I recently saw a pair of shoes that cost four hundred yuan." Yumi immediately said that she just wanted to buy a pair of shoes.

"What? Four hundred?" A Yao felt distressed, but under the threat of Yumei's eyes, he still took out his wallet and spent the money to buy peace. Kang Qirui watched from the side and shook his head, feeling fortunate that Wanling did not have a cousin.

On the 19th, A Yao went out early in the morning to pick up Xingzi, but when he came back at noon, he came back alone. Kang Qirui asked, "Third brother, aren't you going to pick up the third sister-in-law?"

"Help me." A Yao said, carrying several large bags in his hands, "Sachiko has to go back to the company for a meeting this afternoon. I came back by myself after having lunch with her."

"Wow, there are so many good things, red wine, squab, suckling pig. Who are you trying to flatter?" Kang Qirui took the bag and put it on the tea table, and saw that it was full of good things.

"Need I say more? Of course you're flattering me. If there's anything Third Brother can't handle, just tell me and I'll take care of it," A'zu, who heard the voice, walked out, took the red wine, looked at it and said arrogantly.

Kang Qirui said with a smile: "Fourth brother, you think too highly of yourself. Do you need these good things to flatter me? One Luodi orange is enough."

"Third brother must have done something wrong when his wife came back today, so he bought so many good things to silence his wife." Kang Zherui joked. "That must be it." A Zu also agreed.

"What's the matter?" The old lady who was making lunch also came out.

"Mom, Sachiko has been in training for two months, and now the company is planning to promote her to business manager, and her salary will increase a lot, so I bought these things and we can celebrate tonight. Thank you for helping me with them, Mom." A Yao explained.

The mother smiled so hard that her teeth were showing, "Okay, okay."

Time flies, and it's dinner time. To celebrate Sachiko's promotion and salary increase and her return home, the old lady was busy all afternoon, cooking a large table of dishes, all of which were Sachiko's favorites.

"It's almost seven o'clock. When will Third Sister-in-law come back?" Kang Qirui looked at the time. They had been waiting for almost an hour, but Sachiko had not come back yet.

Upon hearing this, Zhu Wanling nudged Kang Qirui with her arm, winked at him and said, "Oh, it's still early, wait a little longer."

"I'm so hungry that I didn't even have lunch to help make this meal. How about this? I'm not an adult and I'm not married yet, so I'll eat first." A-Zu picked up his chopsticks and was about to eat. "Me too." Yumi responded to A-Zu immediately.

"Oh. You have no manners." The old maid hit them with chopsticks.

"Why don't you call and ask, Third Brother?" Kang Qirui was also very hungry, so he suggested to A Yao. A Yao went out to make a phone call, and soon came back and said, "She said the boss invited her to dinner, so she won't be back to eat, so we'll eat first." Hearing that it was time to eat, everyone immediately picked up their chopsticks and started eating a squab.

"Uncle San, won't Sachiko be very busy in the future?" asked the second sister-in-law while eating a chicken leg. "She's a manager and a beautiful girl. I guess I won't have to cook for her in the future." A Yao became nervous when he heard this and his face looked a little unhappy.

"Stop talking so much, let's eat." When the old man saw that his third son's face was not right, he immediately stopped the topic.

After dinner, everyone watched TV in the living room. A Yao sat by the door and looked outside from time to time to see if Sachiko had come back. He was worried about being poached, and now that Sachiko had been promoted, he was even more worried. He was afraid that he would not be able to keep her.

"I'm back." At about ten o'clock, Sachiko finally came back.

"Sachiko, you're back. Have you eaten?" asked the old maid.

"Mom, I've eaten." Sachiko replied with a smile, "I'll go in and take a shower first." When A Yao saw Sachiko go in, he followed her in.

When the second sister-in-law saw this, she said to the second brother, "Husband, the third uncle has been watching the door all night, fearing that the third sister-in-law would not come back. Now that the third sister-in-law has come back, he immediately follows her in, hahahaha."

"Of course, his wife is richer than him, holds a higher position than him, and is so beautiful, how can he not be worried?" The second brother thought it was understandable. "I think Uncle San will be jealous every day from now on." The second sister-in-law said gloatingly.

Ming Tsai appears in this chapter, so I'll just mention it. Some friends say that the protagonist's plan to buy Ming Tsai's Xiguan mansion is robbery, well, I don't agree with this.

What did Mingzai do to the Kang family? He tricked Ah Zong into selling drugs, which led to Ah Zong being injected with drugs by the drug dealers and forced to go to a drug rehabilitation center. People's words are scary. No matter why Ah Zong went to the drug rehabilitation center, as long as he went there, his reputation would be ruined.

The second is to kidnap Tianxiu and try to steal his 4 yuan deposit. One more thing to add: 3000 yuan was enough for the down payment at that time, because the average transaction price of commercial housing in Tianhe was yuan per square meter.

For what Mingzai did, the protagonist planned to buy his house and let him leave Changsheng Street in order to prevent future troubles. It can definitely be described as merciful, after all, he was given 30 in the end.

If this were an ancient text, killing Mingzi could only be described as eliminating harm for the people.
