My Life with Narration-Chapter 344 - 341: Everyone’s Inner Thoughts

Faced with merely three big geese, all he needed to do was make a small move and it wouldn’t even test their full fighting ability.

Ever since he turned ten, his combat skills surpassed the strength of three geese. If he had a long, straight stick in his hand, he’d certainly be the village bully.

No chicken, duck, goose, dog, or pig could match him, though, of course, horses and cows weren’t in this category.

With his current physique, actually taking on a horse or cow would truly be a mad feat.

"How could you be so useless, not even able to beat three geese, what’s your use then, stew you it is!" Su Qing squatted down, pulling Da Huang’s dog face with both hands while asking.

As a poop scooper, seeing his dog so cowardly made him feel slightly ashamed. At least it’s a large dog, even if it can’t take down criminals, can’t be a police dog, or even lose to a tabby cat, tolerating all that, but losing to three geese is a bit much.

In the face of his reproach, Da Huang whimpered with some grievance: "Woof~ Woo~~" [There’s too many of them, two fists can’t beat four hands, also why fight them, they’re delicious!]

Su Qing: ???

Upon hearing this, a series of question marks popped up over his head. This dog seemed to be doing quite well here, still able to eat goose meat, was the landlady’s hometown meals this good?

Just as he was thinking of chastising Da Huang again, the landlady spoke, "Stop blaming Da Huang, I did it on purpose, let her be pecked by the geese so she’ll know pain and behave!"

While speaking, she glared at the girl in Shen Yi’s arms.

This left Su Qing once again at a loss, did he do something wrong, why did it feel as though his good intentions backfired?

Then Shen Yi put the little girl down and couldn’t help squeezing her little cheeks teasingly, "Yayaya, whose child is this, so dirty, covered in mud, being naughty?"

At this moment, the little girl’s outfit was vastly different from her city look, no skirts, just gray shorts, a white sleeve shirt, her legs dotted with mud, even her face had some; if she got any tanner, she’d truly be a wild girl.

Even Da Huang’s originally smooth fur had started to mat over these days, even some dried mud clung to his fur, having evolved into a rustic country dog.

However, his spirit seemed much stronger than in the city, and the little girl was the same.

Sure enough, the wild ones are tough, whether kids or dogs.

"You wouldn’t believe it, this past week, those two have almost become the town’s troublemakers, chasing chickens and ducks, Da Huang would chase them away while she’d catch chicks. Their division of labor was clear, almost habitual offenders; at this rate, the two would soon form a duo, she’d even named it herself: Brotherhood!"

Shen Yi: ...

Su Qing: ...

Then they both looked at the pair on the ground, the little girl wringing her hands a bit embarrassed, while Da Huang panted with his tongue out, seemingly proud.

What a Brotherhood, he thought maybe they’d choose a name like White Clouds and Yellow Grass, surprised at how social it was, and what was this? Local hooligans?

Even knowing division of labor, one as muscle, the other as pickpocket?

He even thought, if he edited Da Huang and Wen Yun’s daily village life into videos and posted them online, they would surely become a viral hit in short videos.

Cute child, cute pet, causing mischief, humor, all elements for a viral hit are present.

But he could only think so because after all, the little girl’s background wasn’t ordinary, she’s the young lady of a wealthy family, and Elder Wen in Jiang City is a well-known figure, how could they expose their little granddaughter to the public for a mere share in online traffic?

If seen by acquaintances, where would they keep the face?

How many super-rich people choose to flaunt themselves online, if they want to play, they’re at least investing in movies, promoting their own people.

Even from the landlady herself, you could see a bit of it, the Wen family’s upbringing should be strict, Wen Nanqing herself has looks and figure, but she never thought of making short videos to post online, different leagues altogether.

Su Qing had invited her before, but she refused.

At last, both he and Shen Yi were quite helpless, so Su Qing could only pull on Da Huang’s dog face forcefully, letting it be known to wait until they’re home for punishment, now’s not the right place.

Then they each gathered their things and left with the landlady back to the old house.

The Wen family’s villa was perched a bit high, making them walk uphill to reach the Wen family gates.

Just upon arriving, they saw two elders standing by the door looking around as they heard sounds, indeed, Wen Mother and Elder Wen.

"Hey, hey, is that young Su?"

"Isn’t it, handsome or what?"

"Definitely handsome, but surely too young, still a half-grown kid, interesting, quite interesting!" Elder Wen nodded as he looked toward Su Qing.

He had met many young accomplished individuals, some early celebrities, some had their own companies at a young age, some even started taking over their family businesses right after graduation.

But invariably, their personalities were spirited and full of flair, even some came off a bit flashy.

However, none of this was considered a problem in Elder Wen’s eyes, why shouldn’t young talent be flashy and bold, isn’t that what being young is all about?

But the drawback is also evident, which is lack of maturity and prone to impulsiveness. Although those young people who took over their family businesses right after graduation seem to be doing well, it’s actually their elders helping them, teaching them as they go, leading by example.

He hasn’t met Su Qing, but just based on these two incidents and his own son’s evaluation, Mr. Wen can sense that this young man is different.

You could say he’s accomplished, yet he works at his daughter’s company, thanks to his connection with Little Yi. But if you want to say he’s ordinary, this young man is quite sophisticated, he handles matters flawlessly, and can even anticipate how to hit the opponent where it hurts, delivering a fatal blow.

Last time, his former son-in-law tried to pull off some dirty tricks, but Su Qing happened to catch him, saw through his plans, and even left evidence for them. Although he didn’t participate directly, the goal was achieved seamlessly.

Recently, when his daughter and Shen Yi’s jointly run company had issues, he was aware and handled it even more masterfully.

Not only did he come up with suggestions and anticipated the opponent’s plans, but he also figured out what went wrong with the opponent’s company, leveraging the situation to not only recover losses but also make a substantial profit, even leading to the opponent’s company going under.

If on his son’s side the network is ready-made, then at Wang Zheng’s side, the young man earned the support through his own convincing efforts.

No matter how you look at it, this person is talented and not lacking in cunning and strategy. Even his own eldest son met him once and had his thoughts figured out. The key is, others can’t tell how skilled he is, which is a true talent.

What does doing business rely on? Talent? No, no, no, it’s about opportunity, luck, and ability. The first two are hard to come by, but the third one is the truly impressive part, also known colloquially as ’shrewdness’.

So even though he knew Su was very young before, seeing him in person was still a surprise.

"You’re here, Little Yi, Little Su!" Wen’s mother came forward.

"Hello, Auntie!"

"Auntie, I’m here, these are for you and Uncle!" Shen Yi quickly stepped forward.

Upon seeing them, Wen’s mother’s face immediately lit up with a smile: "Good, good, come in, come in!"

"Oh dear, Little Su, look at you, just coming over was enough, why bring something!"

Shen Yi: ???

Clearly, the things she brought were better, not only supplements but also skincare products and two bottles of Moutai. Yet Su Qing just brought some fruit, but Wen’s mother’s reaction was like seeing her own son-in-law, making Aunt Shen truly feel what it means to favor boys over girls.

"Just some fruit, I didn’t know what to bring you!" Su Qing smiled a bit shyly, after all, here he and Shen Yi were in a boyfriend-girlfriend relationship, whatever Shen Yi brought was what he brought, wasn’t it?

"Look how thoughtful Little Su is!"

"Su Qing, this is my dad!" Wen Nanqing introduced from the side.

Hearing this, he couldn’t help but look up. The old man looked very spirited, just that his hair loss seemed severe, his appearance unimposing, wearing a loose tank top, big shorts, flip-flops, one wouldn’t know he was once an entrepreneur, just like a security guard.

"Hello, Uncle," Su Qing greeted, intended to shake hands, but since his hands were full, he could only slightly bend down his head to show respect.

"Good, good, all good, come on in!"

Just then, a voiceover rang in Su Qing’s mind.

[An old fox who has roamed the real estate industry for years, is already considering how to weigh up your worth. In conversations with such an old fox, be extra cautious, or you might unintentionally reveal your intentions.]

Upon hearing, Su Qing internally grumbled, he wasn’t some turtle at a seafood market, why does everyone want to weigh him up?

Besides, this showed that the Wen family is typically a male-dominated family, Wen Jingqi was like this, and so was Mr. Wen now, the family’s brilliant minds rested on these two.

"What are you looking at, take these things over, don’t let Little Su get tired!" At this moment, Wen’s mother’s voice came.

Su Qing: ...

Was it necessary, it’s just some fruits, counting this watermelon it’s just over thirty pounds, and still with two hands.

Shen Yi: ...

[Seriously, does no one see me? The stuff I’m holding isn’t light either.]

Mr. Wen: ...

[This isn’t your son-in-law, he’s Little Yi’s boyfriend, why act like a mother-in-law?]

The hostess: ...

[Oh no, here it goes again, Mom, calm down, your daughter still needs to save face, otherwise, after today, I won’t have any face left.]

The little girl: [With Su Daddy around, I’m not afraid of the big goose!]

The big yellow: [I wonder if today’s turtle soup is for me.]

At this moment, everyone’s thoughts were fabulously interesting.
