Twenty-two The calculation caused by express delivery

"Brother Xie, this is a package sent from your nephew from Beijing." A junior from the Xie family came over and asked curiously.

Xie Zhiyuan nodded, looking like he was complaining, but actually he said in a arrogant manner: "My nephew! I don't even know what to say about him. He is just a child, and I am already so happy that he has such a childlike heart. How can I go back and do this?"

How much does it cost for a big bag of stuff?

It takes a lot of effort to make these things, and I don't know where such a young child can put so much thought into it.

When I reply next time, I must tell him that his uncle, I am still young and able to work, and my family is not lacking in everything, so he cannot send so many things again in the future."

Hearing this, the people in the village became even more upset.

They also want to have such a good nephew, and also want to receive filial gifts from their nephew.

But as for their nephews, let alone bringing a big bag of things to honor their uncle, it would be a good idea not to take anything from home every time they come to the maternal home.

Seeing the pride that couldn't be hidden on Xie Zhiyuan's face, someone who was close to him half-jokingly said, "If you don't like it, why don't we change it? I wish I had a nephew like this."

Faced with the joke, Xie Zhiyuan waved his hand quickly: "That's not okay, that's my nephew!"

That subconscious reaction caused everyone to burst into laughter. As a younger brother, Xie Zhiying had a lively personality and was able to play with peers and even juniors in the village.

Xie Zhiyuan has always been mature and steady. Compared with his peers, he has more contact with some elders in the village. He has always been serious. No one has ever seen him show such an expression.

However, such a sharp contrast made everyone even more excited.

No, soon someone grabbed his shoulders and said very affectionately: "Which of us will follow whom? Your nephew is my nephew, so you have to call me uncle based on seniority."

Don't worry, don't let our nephew shout in vain, I will definitely give him a big gift when he comes next time."

The person who said that he was talking about life flashed in his eyes, as if he was thinking of something?

"Yes, yes, yes, gifts are absolutely indispensable." Some people with ulterior motives also echoed next to them.

Xie Zhiyuan felt uncomfortable being held by someone's shoulders. The embarrassment on his face flashed across his face. He subconsciously wanted to get rid of the other person's hand on his shoulder. However, because the other person was also a member of the Xie family and was somewhat related to his own family, he couldn't.

He casually ignored the other party, and he endured the discomfort and stood there.

But I feel a little annoyed in my heart. I wouldn't have shown off if I had known it.

It was a rare occasion for him to show off, but he didn't expect someone to actually climb up the pole and try to snatch his nephew away.

Xie Zhiyuan, who had never been teased like this before, was surrounded by a crowd of people. He was unable to move forward or retreat. He looked around awkwardly, his mind running wildly, trying to refute.

At this moment, Xie Zhiying, who came after hearing the sound, pushed aside the crowd and walked in.

After he came in, he looked like the two brothers were doing well, put his arm around his eldest brother's shoulders, and then smiled and replied: "That's not possible, Xiaoyu is my nephew. If our brothers really dare to replace our nephew today,

If nothing else, the old man must give us some advice.

Big brothers, I think you can’t bear to see us brothers still being beaten by me at such an old age, right?”

As Xie Zhiying said this, he pulled his eldest brother to the side intentionally or unintentionally, and quietly pushed away the other hand that was on his shoulder.

After hearing this, the people who were joking around Xie Zhiyuan laughed awkwardly: "You are kidding, you are kidding! I was kidding!"

Xie Zhiying felt NND in his heart, but he had a smile on his face. Although he was usually very carefree, he didn't take anything seriously, and he didn't like to be tempted.

That's because there is an old man and eldest brother at home, so don't fool him like a real fool.

He really pretended that he didn't know. These boys were just jealous of the things sent by his nephew. They said they were joking, but in fact they were testing him.

Based on his understanding of these people, Xie Zhiying had no doubt that if he didn't come over today, these people would go to great lengths to ask for "help" from his nephew.

They are not easy to help. If they really let go, they will not only have to contribute in the end, but also have to borrow money. If this goes on, they may not be able to survive in the end.

Thinking of this, Xie Zhiying looked at the few people who provoked this matter with bright eyes. He looked very guilty and could only smile.

Seeing this, Xie Zhiying said pointedly: "This joke cannot be made casually. It would be bad if your nephew heard it and used your identity again."

After saying that, no matter who was embarrassed by his words, he turned to look at Xie Zhiyuan: "Brother, our father wants to repair the bench at home, let me ask you where you put the nails?"

The two of them were indeed brothers. Xie Zhiying seemed not to notice the aggrieved expressions of those people and replied very casually: "The nails, let me think about it, should be placed in the drawer in the main room."

Xie Zhiying: "It's in the drawer in the main room. Did you remember it wrong, brother? I just looked for it and couldn't find it."

Xie Zhiyuan: "I didn't find it. It's impossible. Didn't you look carefully? I remember that I put it in the drawer in the hall after I used it last time. How could I not find it?"

"I searched all over the main room and couldn't find it."

"..."

"..."

"Then I'll go back and look for it. I remember it's in the drawer in the main room." Xie Zhiyuan said, turning to look at the others and saying hello to them: "Let's continue chatting. I'll go back and look for nails for my dad."

.”

After saying that, the two brothers pushed the cart and left.

Seeing that the two brothers who were the center of the conversation were gone, everyone else felt that it was no longer interesting and they all went home one after another.

After everyone left, there were only three middle-aged men in their forties left.

The three of them looked at each other, and finally focused on the eldest one.

"Brother, what should I do if Xie Zhiyuan doesn't fall for the trick?"

The eldest one turned to look at the two brothers with a dark face. It was the one who had just put his arm around Xie Zhiyuan's shoulders.

He scolded the two Xie brothers in his heart.

Then he asked with a gloomy face: "Why did Xie Zhiying come here?"

The other two middle-aged men also looked unhappy. One of them said a little aggrievedly: "I don't know, I obviously let someone trip him into the ground."

Almost everyone in the village knows that the Xie family has good relatives.

Xie Zhiyuan's request for leave today to go to town to pick up a courier was noticed by some people.

Some people are inevitably unconvinced. How come his family can have such good relatives? Everyone’s surname is Xie. Why can’t his own family take advantage?

Regarding this, the eldest among the three brothers was even more unconvinced.

Before Old Man Xie came back with his two sons, he was the most promising young man of his generation.
