"According to what you said, if the country wants to develop, we shouldn't ask people to be thrifty. Instead, we should ask people to be extravagant and wasteful!" Uncle Jia said angrily.
"Hehe, actually, it's not extravagance and wastefulness. It's just spending money to upgrade. In the past, everyone lived a simple life. Now, it's time for us to live a better life!" Boss Jia said with a smile.
"You …" Uncle Jia was about to continue lecturing Boss Jia. Suddenly, a figure ran to Boss Jia's side and said hurriedly, "Little Jia, I have to go back to the capital. I can't accompany you!"
"Mr. Xu!" Eldest Uncle naturally knew this old man's think tank. When he saw him, he was a little surprised, but he also said respectfully.
"Old Zhu, you're here! Aren't you afraid of arousing suspicion? " Seeing Uncle Jia, Xu Guangle was also surprised. Then, he said with a smile, "But the old man was right."
"What did the old man say?" Uncle Jia asked nervously.
"He made a bet with me. He bet that you would come to this kid's wedding. I said you definitely wouldn't come, but the old man said you would. Ah, the older the ginger, the wiser! "Xu Guangle said with a sigh. Uncle Jia was touched.
He didn't expect the old man to pay so much attention to him and know so much about him. This really moved Uncle Jia.
"Mr. Xu, are you in such a hurry?" Boss Jia was surprised that Xu Guangle went back so early.
"There's something in the capital. They urged me to go back!" Xu Guangle shook his head and patted his head, "Oh right, I have a red envelope for you!"
After Xu Guangle said that, he handed a red envelope to Boss Jia. But this red envelope looked thin. There wasn't much money in it.
"There's a red envelope!" Boss Jia was happy. He grabbed the red envelope and squeezed it with two fingers. Then, he smiled and said, "Old Xu, it seems that you are a stingy person!"
"Of course, I am a stingy person!" Xu Guangle smiled, "That's why I didn't prepare a red envelope for you."
"Then this red packet is …" Boss Jia paused.
"This red packet isn't from me. It's from an old man!" Xu Guangle smiled. Then, he waved his hand and said goodbye to Boss Jia.
"An old man gave it to me?" Boss Jia was stunned. Could it be …
Boss Jia looked at the red packet carefully from top to bottom with trembling hands. He found a congratulatory message written on the red packet with a fountain pen: "Little Jia, I wish you a happy marriage, a hundred years of bliss, a hundred years of bliss, and a lifetime of companionship.
The more Boss Jia thought about it, the faster his heart beat. He was called Little Jia, an old man, and Xu Guangle had personally sent him here.
"Let me see …" Eldest Uncle couldn't help but ask. Boss Jia handed the red packet to Eldest Uncle. Eldest Uncle stared blankly at the congratulatory message on the red packet and muttered to himself, "It's his handwriting, it's the Old Master's handwriting!"
"Uncle, this is really …" Boss Jia pointed to the sky.
"It's most likely!" Eldest Uncle swallowed his saliva and looked deeply at Boss Jia. He sighed and said, "I don't know where you're so lucky to have the Old Master give you a red packet for your wedding. He even wrote 21 words on it!"
"Oh my god, I haven't heard of the Old Master giving anyone a red packet for their wedding since 70 years ago. You're the only one!" Eldest Uncle said with jealousy.
It made sense. After 70 years, no one in the world was worthy of the Old Master giving him a red packet.
"Yes … yes …" Boss Jia was also touched. He, Boss Jia, wasn't greedy for money, but this sentiment was priceless!
"Little Jia, Eldest Uncle wants to discuss something with you …" Eldest Uncle held the red packet tightly in his hand and licked his lips.
"Eldest Uncle, this red packet is mine!" Boss Jia stared at his cheap Eldest Uncle with his big innocent eyes.
"I know. The money in it is yours. I don't want it. Give it back to me!" Eldest Uncle looked at the red packet and stared blankly. He couldn't help it. He didn't even have the Old Master's calligraphy.
"F * ck …" Boss Jia cursed in his heart. Even a fool would know that the money in the red packet was worthless. No one could be sure that the money in the red packet was from the Old Master.
But the handwriting on the red packet couldn't be faked. This was the real value.
Of course, it was too hurtful to talk about money. This red packet itself was priceless.
Considering that the Old Master probably hadn't personally given red packets to anyone in his life, and he even wrote on them, the value of this red packet was even greater.
How could Boss Jia give it to someone else?
But since Eldest Uncle had already asked for the red packet, it would be inappropriate for Boss Jia to ask for it back directly. Therefore, Boss Jia rolled his eyes and said, "Eldest Uncle, if you like it, I'll give this red packet to you. But Eldest Uncle, you owe me a favor. You'll have to pay me back in the future!"
Well, if he could get a favor from Eldest Uncle, it would definitely be worth it.
"…" Eldest Uncle was in a dilemma. In the end, he sighed and returned the red packet to Boss Jia. He muttered something like, "A gentleman doesn't take what others like."
"Eldest Uncle, why don't you educate me about this wedding again?" Boss Jia said with a grin.
"You brat, you're still pretending to be innocent after getting a bargain. The Old Master has already given you a red packet. How would I dare to educate you!" Eldest Uncle shook his head helplessly. The two people behind him were stunned.
The two of them didn't know Xu Guangle's identity at all. Therefore, Eldest Uncle and Jia Yapeng's words were like a book from heaven to them. They couldn't understand what they meant.
However, they could at least tell that this red packet was sent by an extremely powerful existence. There were only a few people who could make their uncle lose his composure like this.
Thinking of this, the two people behind him were even more respectful. At the same time, they were also a little jealous of the red packet.
"But there's something I have to make clear to you. Today, I'm only here to attend my niece's wedding. Although Xishui is my niece, even if she's my biological daughter, I'll treat her equally. If I find out that you're doing anything illegal, I'll be the first to arrest you, regardless of whether you're the richest man in Hua Xia or not! "Eldest Uncle said with a cold face.
"Yes!" Boss Jia nodded and said, "Her Eldest Uncle, to be honest, I'm already so rich. I have so much money that I can't spend it all in this lifetime. I don't need to do anything illegal. It's not worth it!"
"Hmph, then what did you say to your Granduncle just now?"
"Well, I just wanted to scare him. You saw it too. If I didn't scare him like this, he wouldn't leave!" Boss Jia laughed.
"It's good that you know!" Eldest Uncle nodded, then turned his head and looked at the two people behind him. In an instant, all the benevolent expression disappeared and became a little cold.
"You two don't follow me. Come with me to the conference room to talk. I want to ask, the country finally approved the development zone for you. Why is there still not much progress after half a year?" Eldest Uncle said lightly. The two people behind him suddenly looked very bitter.
We're innocent!

In the evening, when Boss Jia and his wife were in the bridal chamber, Boss Jia remembered that he hadn't opened the red envelope yet. So, he licked his lips, carefully opened the red envelope, and took out a Mount Everest note.
"Who is so stingy? There's only 10 yuan in the red envelope! " Zhu Qiushui saw the amount of money in the red envelope. She couldn't help but twitch her mouth and said with some disdain.
Today, Zhu Qiushui received a total of thousands of red envelopes. In each red envelope, there was at least one Grandpa Mao. After all, these red envelopes were sent by big bosses. They couldn't be stingy.
But now, seeing a red envelope with only 10 yuan, Zhu Qiushui was naturally disdainful.
"What do you know?" Boss Jia glared at his wife, and then said carefully, "Tomorrow, find someone to frame this 10 yuan for me and hang it on our bed. Do you understand?"
"What?" Zhu Qiushui was stunned. A mere 10 yuan needed to be framed and hung on the bed. Was her family that poor?
