Winners in life: starting from the street writer

Chapter 43 Which one to get?
Wait for Shang Lin to clean up.

A black knitted cardigan, matched with a gray skirt, although it looks simple, but when paired together, it is very atmospheric and gentle.

After all, she was going to meet her elders, so how could Shang Lin dare to wear her usual clothes.

"Very good, let's go."

Shen Hao is quite satisfied with Shang Lin's outfit.

Starting from home, Shen Hao was not in a hurry to meet them at the restaurant, but drove to the West Lake first.

At the Lego store on the pedestrian street over there, I bought two sets of toys for my little nephew, which cost 5000 yuan.

Tsk, Shen Hao has never played Lego toys.

Shen Hao didn't feel bad about buying things for his cousin's children.

After buying the presents, it was almost 07:30 when the two arrived at the place.

Passing by a convenience store, Shang Lin specially bought a red envelope, took out 1 yuan from a nearby ATM, and filled it all up.

Shen Hao couldn't laugh or cry, the gift from him was enough, there was no need for Shang Lin to spend extra money.

"That's different. The gift from my uncle and the New Year's money from my aunt are two different things."

Shang Lin gave Shen Hao a blank look, and walked into the restaurant with his arm.

It can be seen that this time the little nephew celebrated his birthday, the brother-in-law and cousin were bleeding profusely.

The restaurant I chose is also very good. It is a Cantonese restaurant on the third floor of Ping'an Yuefang.

After reporting the name of her brother-in-law, the waiter led Shen Hao and Shang Lin to the door of a box.

Shen Hao pushed open the door of the box, and there were many people inside.

The men are no strangers to each other, and they have played together before.

On the contrary, the women in the box seemed to be their family members, and it was the first time for Shen Hao to see some of them.

When the cousin saw the well-dressed, beautiful and not gaudy Shang Lin, her eyes lit up immediately, and she quickly pulled Shang Lin to sit beside her.

The cousin thought that Shen Hao would bring Yu Miao over, but she didn't expect it to be Shang Lin.

Shang Lin wasn't bad either, but she was still a bit short of the kind of sister-in-law that my cousin thought of.

But since Shen Hao chose to bring Shang Lin over, as an older sister, she must not neglect her.

The cousin took Shang Lin's hand and introduced it to everyone with a smile, "Let me introduce to you, that is my younger brother. You should have heard of it, and some of you have seen it. This is my younger brother and sister. In the future, please keep in touch."

Shang Lin smiled cautiously, acting very well-behaved.

In the box, several women sat in a pile, and the men sat together.

Shen Hao said hello to a few of his brother-in-law's friends, and they became acquainted after a while.

Shang Lin's palms were sweating nervously, but she was pretty, and she was often looked at curiously by several women.

Fortunately, with her cousin there, Shang Lin became more generous in no time, and she was able to chat with them about bags and cosmetics while chatting and laughing.

In the past, my cousin would also dress herself up meticulously. Since she gave birth, her figure has been out of shape, and she doesn't like to dress up as much as Shang Lin at her age.

Seeing that Shang Lin and her cousin could chat well, Shen Hao felt relieved.

In the private room, apart from the brother-in-law and cousin's family, including Shen Hao and Shang Lin, there are a total of five couples, which is quite a lot of people.

After all, my brother-in-law has been working in Hangzhou for more than ten years. If he doesn't have many friends, it's just a waste of time.

When ordering, Shen Hao glanced at the menu, which was considered mid-range in Cantonese restaurants.

But if you want to eat well, 300 per capita must be indispensable.

Fortunately, my brother-in-law and the others brought two bottles of Moutai, which saved a lot of money on drinks.

got~
Seeing the two bottles of Moutai, Shen Hao immediately understood that he would definitely not be able to escape the drink tonight.

Sure enough, a group of gentlemen were together, and there was nothing to say, just drink and be done.

Shen Hao asked his brother-in-law to stand in front, and he fished in the back. He couldn't drink better than this gang of salesmen.

After a cup of Moutai, Shen Hao was already a little over the top.

Today is my nephew's birthday, and the little guy is writhing dishonestly in the baby seat.

After the candles were blown out, the big guys ate their dishes and chatted about interesting things in their respective circles.

Men are not interested in women's affairs.

My brother-in-law and his company have project contacts with big companies like Ali and Huawei, and the conversation is also about things in that circle.

Normally, the brothers-in-law and the others most often entertained are the employees of these companies.

In a Cantonese restaurant like this, my brother-in-law and the others all have membership cards, so I dare not say that it is the company account, but at least a discount is not a problem.

Hearing that the brother-in-law mentioned that he bought a Maserati, several friends of the brother-in-law were a little dumbfounded.

Dude, driving a Maserati at such a young age?
Rich second generation?
The brother-in-law explained with a smile, "Don't think too much, my younger brother is a great writer, and the monthly manuscript fee is 10,000+. It's not easy to buy a Maserati."

"It's not that exaggerated. I also gritted my teeth and chose this car that I like more."

Shen Hao waved his hand modestly.

"writer?"

My brother-in-law has a friend who is as thin as a monkey and has an interesting name called Ma Liang. He asked curiously, "Brother, are you also writing novels at Qidian?"

"Uh... yes, you also write novels?"

Shen Hao was a little surprised, he didn't expect to meet his brother-in-law among his friends, so he couldn't help being a little embarrassed.

"Hey, that was all a few years ago, and I don't write about it now."

Ma Liang smiled and waved his hands, "At my age, I can't sit still in front of the computer like you, and now I'm drunk every day."

"Every line is not easy."

Shen Hao nodded, like sales, eloquence is the basic quality.

Drinking capacity must also be able to handle, otherwise how to accompany the guests well and get the order?

Ma Liang has also written novels before, and he usually likes to read novels. Naturally, he knows how difficult it is to earn 10,000+ a month.

Today's meal is not only to celebrate the little nephew's birthday, but also to celebrate the brother-in-law's promotion.

After being promoted to manager, not only did he have a few employees under him, but the annual salary rose to 30, and the pressure also increased a lot.

After all, the manager's performance and ordinary sales are naturally not on the same level.

But pressure is also motivation. If you don't get promoted, with my brother-in-law's salary, I'm afraid I should consider selling the house and returning to my hometown.

After a meal, when waiting for the bill, Shen Hao asked, and it looked like it cost more than 4000.

This is already considered a favorable price. After all, my brother-in-law ordered a few signature dishes, all of which are six or seven hundred.

Fortunately, the manager of this store knew that his brother-in-law and the others often come to spend, so he took the initiative to offer a discount, otherwise it would have cost five thousand.

The cousin looked at the bill and couldn't help but feel distressed.

If it weren't for my brother-in-law's promotion this time, the previous salary of [-] after tax would be enough to buy a meal.

The other friends left after dinner, and their wives can drive all of them, so there is no need to call for a driver.

The cousin drove her brother-in-law's car, and Shen Hao asked Shang Lin to drive behind.

When I got to the door of my brother-in-law's house, the unregistered car must be parked outside.

Find a place that is not easy to scratch, and park the car.

Shen Hao took out two boxes of Lego toys from the trunk, and then led Shang Lin in through the door.

The cousin drove the car directly into the basement of the community.

Anyway, Shen Hao had an access control card, swiped the card, entered the community, and arrived at the door of the house one step ahead of his cousin.

When my cousin and the others took the elevator up from the underground parking lot, they saw the two big boxes of toys that Shen Hao was carrying, and they couldn't help being stunned for a moment, "He wasted money again. He's so young, how can he play with these things."

"It's okay, anyway, this toy can be played for several years, and my son will probably be born by then, so I will continue to use it."

Shen Hao made a joke.

On the other hand, Shang Lin blushed, thinking that Shen Hao really wanted a child, she couldn't help but whisper in her heart, she would not have taken that medicine if she had known.

After going in and chatting for a while, the brother-in-law took the little nephew to make toys together, and couldn't help but be speechless.

My brother-in-law is really willing to spend money. This set of toys costs more than 2000 yuan.

The cousin washed the fruit, and took Shang Lin to chat about the embarrassing things about Shen Hao's childhood. Shen Hao rolled his eyes when he heard it.

Shang Lin was overjoyed, and her understanding of Shen Hao deepened a lot.

After all, it was quite late after dinner, Shen Hao and Shang Lin sat for a while, and saw that the little nephew was a little sleepy, crying.

"Okay, sister, brother-in-law, let's go first."

Shen Hao winked at Shang Lin.

The cousin didn't say anything, anyway, we are all in the same city, and I really want to meet, it will take more than half an hour.

"Sister, brother-in-law, this is my heart for Xiao Shitou."

Shang Lin took out the red envelope from her bag and stuffed it into her cousin's hand.

"It's impossible, you haven't passed the door yet, how could my sister accept your red envelope."

The cousin couldn't laugh or cry, just from the thickness of the red envelope, she knew it was about 1 yuan.

"Sister, you can accept it. When we get married in the future, just come back."

Shen Hao was at the side to help persuade.

The cousin hesitated for a moment, and had to accept it with a wry smile, "That's not an example. When you get married in the future, it seems that your brother-in-law and I are going to bleed a lot."

"Hey, that goes without saying."

Shen Hao waved his hands with a smile, and pulled Shang Lin into the elevator.

When the elevator door closed, Shang Lin stepped forward from the posture she had been holding up all along, "Huh, it's finally over, I'm almost exhausted."

"As for what?"

Shen Hao shrugged, but he didn't realize that he was so nervous at all.

"The next time you go to my house, see if you're nervous?"

Shang Lin gave him a blank look.

"Seeing that my sister is so nervous, if you see my mother during the Chinese New Year, are you sure you can do it?"

Shen Hao couldn't help teasing Shang Lin playfully.

"Forehead……"

Shang Lin thought about the scene of meeting Shen Hao's parents, feeling somewhat expectant, but also nervous and fearful.

"Okay, don't think about it, it's still early, you can drive later."

Seeing that Shang Lin was really thinking in that direction, Shen Hao wished he could slap himself a few times.

As for who to bring to meet his parents, Shen Hao hasn't decided yet.

Based on his understanding of his mother, Yu Miao must be the most suitable daughter-in-law.

But Shang Lin is not bad either. If I take it back, my mother will definitely not say anything, and she will like it very much.

If I take it back at the same time...

Forget it, my mother's heart is not very good, but don't scare her.
