I'm a little panicked. I'm going to be a father right after my rebirth.

"Hey, Second Uncle, why did you come just now? My grandfather has been waiting for a long time. How can we let an old man wait for a young man?"

The person who spoke was the second son of his uncle, named Song Nan. His sarcastic tone made Song Yongtang's face darken immediately.

The names of the boys in my uncle's family all have the character "木" (wood) on the radical, such as Song Gui, Song Nan, and Song Yang.

Song Yongtang named his children all with words that mean bright and splendid, and Song Ye’s character “Ye” has a fire radical.

Fire overcomes wood, and the eldest uncle thought that his second brother did it on purpose, wanting to use the name to overcome their family and bring prosperity to himself, so he fell out with Song Yongtang, and even the younger generations of the two families were no longer close.

Especially since Song Ye used to be a lazy person, Song Nan would make sarcastic remarks to him every time they met, so they would fight every year.

Song Yongtang glared at him, then walked into the yard with his wife and children, and no one paid any attention to him.

Song Nan frowned. Song Ye had grown up this year. He got angry without any provocation. In previous years, he would have come up and beaten him.

"Dad, Mom, your son wishes you a happy new year!" Song Yongtang walked into the house and took the children to kowtow to the old couple.

Except for Song Zhaoxia's family, she is a married woman, Qi Jianguo and Qi Xin are people from outside the family, they are not qualified to kowtow and can only bow behind.

"The second brother is here, get up quickly. You are already old, why do you still have to be so polite?" Song Tiezhu waved his hands and was very cold to them.

Song Tiezhu and his wife Shi Chunhua live with their eldest son, and they love their eldest son and grandson the most. Although Song Yongtang would send them any delicious food, the old couple just wouldn't get close to him.

Song Yongtang took the lead and stood up, brushing the dirt off his knees. Before he could say anything, someone spoke up.

"Second brother, you're late again this year. Why aren't you active in wishing our parents a happy new year?" The speaker was Song Ye's uncle Song Yongnian, who is also Song Nan's father.

"Brother, I don't think I'm the last one to arrive! Is my third brother here?" Song Yongtang was also a man with a bad temper, so naturally he didn't want to listen to his sarcastic accusations.

Song Yongnian raised his lips in disdain, "The third brother's house is several miles away from here. Besides, his eldest brother works in the grain depot and is busy with work, so it's normal for him to come a little late. No one in your family works, so it's unreasonable for you to come so late!"

Song Yongtang was so angry that his face turned red and his neck became thick, but he was not good at speaking and could not win the argument.

"Haha," Song Ye suddenly laughed out loud, "Uncle is right, you guys came so early I'm sure your whole family is very free! You are so lucky, others can't even envy you!"

"Puchi" Song Haixia couldn't hold back her laughter. Her second brother was getting more and more skilled at arguing with people recently.

"Okay, it's New Year's Day, so just keep quiet!" Song Tiezhu had spoken, so Song Yongnian naturally didn't dare to say anything else.

"Yongtang, it's a wonder that your second son didn't come drunk this year." Shi Chunhua sighed.

"The second son is doing well this year. His wife is pregnant. Now he doesn't drink or go out to play. He stays with his wife every day. It seems that he can live a good life." Song Yongtang said happily.

"Tsk," Song Yongnian sneered, "If he can become a good person, I will lose my head to you!"

Song Yongtang glared at him. It was really beneath his dignity for an elder to say such nonsense all day long!

Song Ye grinned and chuckled, "Uncle, since you want to bet, how about we bet big?"

Song Yongtang frowned, "Second brother, what do you want to do?"

Song Ye gave him a look to reassure him.

"What do you want to bet on?" Song Yongnian asked.

Song Ye touched his chin, "Uncle doesn't like me, so let's make a bet that within two years, all three of your sons have to work for me. If I lose, I'll give you 1000 yuan. If I win, you have to apologize to my father in front of everyone in the village!"

Song Yongnian slapped his thigh and said, "Okay, I'll take the bet! Wait till you lose money! I, Song Yongnian's son, will never work for your family in this lifetime!"

He may not know others, but Song Ye knows that he is a useless person, and he must be trying to trick him! He will not be fooled!

Song Ye sneered in his heart, you probably don’t know what kind of people your three sons are, after he became rich in the previous life, they came to him eagerly and pestered him shamelessly, like a dog-skin plaster, and they couldn’t be driven away!

After he finished speaking, his third uncle and his third aunt arrived, along with their three children.

The eldest brother, Song Xiao, works in the town's grain warehouse. The second brother, Song Haiyan, is a girl who is married and works as a worker in the county garment factory. The third brother, Song Lin, works as a truck driver in the county garment factory.

After Uncle San's family finished greeting grandparents, it was time for the annual gift-giving process. In previous years, Song Yongtang's family would be severely ridiculed.

Song Nan took out two bags and handed them to Song Tiezhu, "Grandpa and grandma, these are the new clothes I bought for you. I spent dozens of dollars on them!"

"Oh, good, good grandson!" Shi Chunhua took it happily.

Song Nan turned his head and glanced at Song Ye with contempt, then pointed the finger at Song Yongtang, "Second Uncle, your family can't just think of yourself when you have good things. Grandpa has never worn such expensive clothes, and you don't even think about buying one for the old man!"

When Song Nan entered the house just now, he found that his second uncle's family were all wearing the same down jackets. He had only seen a few people wearing down jackets in the county town, and he immediately felt jealous!

"You don't have to worry about this. Our family will never let the elderly suffer any injustice!" Song Ye said as he took out two down jackets from a big bag.

"Grandma and grandpa, these are the clothes my dad bought for you. The material is stain-resistant and easy to take care of, and it's perfect for the elderly."

The old couple's eyes sparkled. Having lived for most of their lives, they could still tell whether something was good or not.

"Oh my, second brother, your family has really made great progress this year!"

Shi Chunhua touched the down jacket and was reluctant to put it down. It was obvious that he liked it very much. They didn't even look at the two clothes worn by Song Nan.

Song Nan frowned and looked at his brother Song Gui for help.

Song Gui hurried forward with a bag in his arms, "Grandpa and grandma, what's so good about these clothes? Look, I bought you a lot of frozen apples, pears, persimmons, and oranges!" After saying that, he looked at Song Ye proudly. These oranges were rare things that he had spent a lot of effort to get. They were so precious!

Song Ye calmly took out a plastic bag from his backpack, "Grandma and Grandpa, this is the fresh fruit I bought for you two. I guarantee you will be healthy after eating it!"

When the plastic bag was opened, a dazzling array of various fruits were revealed, and the rich fruity aroma filled the entire room. The two old men's eyes lit up instantly, and it was obvious who had sent the good gifts.

"Grandpa and grandma!" Song Yang, the cousin from my uncle's family, couldn't sit still anymore. How could the things they sent be inferior to those given by Song Ye!

"This is the autumn clothes and trousers I bought for you in the provincial capital. Feel the material. It's really good! A set costs several dozen!"

Song Ye took out two exquisite boxes from his backpack, "Grandma and Grandma, these are the sweaters and pants my eldest brother bought for you. Mount Tai is not piled up, and a train is not pushed. Whether it is good or not depends on whether it is comfortable to wear."
