Chapter Ninety-Eight: Birthday Gifts
"Shut up!" Li Guochang said angrily when he heard this: "You have done such an unbearable thing, and you dare to quibble." Let me tell you, this matter has been spread in the factory. Some time ago, the Xia family didn't go to your trouble, but Director Xia didn't know about it.
Yesterday, someone had already told him about it, and I saw him smash the teacup in his hand. You just wait for the Xia family to settle accounts with you!"
As soon as Li Guochang's words fell, Luo Xiaozhi turned back to Li Qin and said disdainfully: "Little sister, everyone knows that Xia Huagang is not right, but it is also a matter of retribution." Don't blame us for being ruthless, if the Xia family refuses to give up this time, don't blame the Li family for cutting off relations with you!"
One sentence made Li Qin stand on the spot in an instant, she never expected Luo Xiaozhi to say such heartless words anyway.
In an instant, the originally oppressive atmosphere in the room instantly dropped to freezing, and there was no sound except for the occasional crackling sound of burning wood in the outer kitchen.
After a while, Li Ru knocked the cigarette pouch pot in his hand on the edge of the kang, shook off the cigarette ash inside, and said solemnly: "Xiaoqin is my daughter, and her relationship with the Li family doesn't need you to dictate her ways." If you are really afraid of getting into trouble, you can declare your departure from the Li family!
Li Ru was not angry but mighty, exuding a bland and majestic momentum, and Luo Xiaozhi's face instantly became extremely embarrassed. She hesitated for a long time, but never said anything more.
The atmosphere in the room was a little awkward for a while. Li Qin couldn't help but feel a little at a loss, she had to take a pair of children's hands and whispered, "Let's go, let's go help." ”
A few people were just about to leave, but they saw Li Han walking in with two glass wine bottles: "Grandpa, my dad specially got you two bottles of tiger bone wine a few days ago, saying that it was for you to recuperate. After speaking, his eyes deliberately swept over the body of the four members of the Mulin family, and his eyes were full of disdain.
Looking at the tiger bone wine that Li Han put on the kang, Li Guosheng was surprised and said: "Tiger bone wine? This is a good thing, a few days ago, my father-in-law was still thinking about where to buy it, sister-in-law, I'm afraid this bottle will cost more than 100!"
Perhaps she didn't expect Jiang Qianli to be able to get such a valuable medicinal wine, the corners of Luo Xiaozhi's mouth twitched slightly. After a while, she said with a smile: "Dad, my younger brother and sister are really filial." ”
After speaking, she took out two boxes of ginseng from the backpack on the side and put them in front of Li Ru: "Dad, we don't know what to buy, I asked someone to buy these two ginsengs, it cost more than 300, you always keep it for yourself!"
According to common sense, seeing the gifts of his children, Li Ru should have been very happy. However, at this moment, he frowned, reached out and picked up the tobacco bag and pot in the tobacco basket, filled the tobacco leaves, and smoked "let, let". Li Ru was very disgusted by the style of comparison at home, but he didn't say much.
Mu Hao knew that the reason why the two aunts took out these things in front of their parents was nothing more than to watch the Mu family make a fool of themselves.
Jiang Qianli glanced at Mu Lin, who was still smoking a cigarette, and said, "Brother-in-law, where did you put the rotten fruit you bought?" Why don't you take it out and wash it and give it to everyone to taste. ”
Mu Hao knew in his heart that every year when his grandfather celebrated his birthday, his mother often bought some cheap fruits from the market, which was indeed a little shabby. For so many years, the family has been very poor, and in my memory, the family did not give my grandfather any decent gifts.
However, at this time, the eldest aunt proposed to eat fruit, obviously wanting to humiliate his father.
He couldn't help but glance up at his father, but saw that he lowered his head and blushed, still not saying a word.
Pretending not to know, Mu Hao smiled and said to his grandfather Li Ru: "Grandpa, my father brought you a snowflake fabric, saying that he would make a coat for you." ”
"Yo, I really didn't see it! Brother-in-law, you're bleeding a lot this year. Luo Xiaozhi said arrogantly: "It's just that I heard that this tweed fabric was prepared for your old man before he was seriously ill, and it has been pressed to the bottom of the box for two years." Can you get your hands on this kind of frustrating thing?"
Hearing this, Li Qin's face was flushed, and she said embarrassedly: "Originally, I also wanted to buy something else for my father, but you also know that Xiaohao's grandfather just passed away, and the family owes a lot of debt, so ......"
"Skinny donkeys don't have to poop hard. Luo Xiaozhi said with a disdainful face: "If you don't have money, you still have a big-tailed wolf, just your thing, our father is not rare." ”
Mu Hao was a little unhappy when his parents were humiliated, but for this kind of snob, Mu Hao didn't care about it at all.
Maybe it was the gift sent by Xia Hua halfway through, Mu Xue hurriedly turned around and took the paper bag and put it on the kang. smiled at Li Ru and said, "Grandpa, that snowflake tweed was prepared for you by my mother, and this is the birthday gift that my father prepared for you." ”
"Yu'er, this is not ......" Li Qin just wanted to speak, but saw Mu Xue shaking her head at herself, and hurriedly swallowed the second half of the sentence back.
Looking at the things Mu Xue took out of the paper bag, Li Ru's eyes widened and said, "Uncle, what are you doing here, how much is this tobacco and alcohol worth, do you know?"
Mu Hao was stunned when he heard this, and looked down, and he was also shocked in his heart. Because he realized that what was in front of him was two soft blooms and two bottles of aged thatched wine.
These two things are not to mention in this era of scarce materials, but in 2020 before his rebirth, they are also rare.
Mu Hao knows that according to the current market price, these two bottles of Moutai are at least more than 200 per bottle, and the two soft Chinese will not be less than 15 per bottle, which is still priceless.
Something of nearly 1,000 yuan, not to mention that in the eyes of Luo Xiaozhi and Jiang Qianli, even in the richest family in the factory, this is definitely a luxury gift.
Jiang Qianli and Luo Xiaozhi looked at the cigarettes and alcohol that Mu Hao took out in disbelief, and stood on the spot. In comparison, the things they prepared were worth less than half of the Mu family. In an instant, the two of them seemed to have been slapped hard, and their faces immediately turned red with shame.
Seeing his mother's embarrassment, Li Han frowned, in his eyes, the Mu family was like a beggar on the side of the road. He almost lived in the streets, begging along the streets. If he hadn't seen it with his own eyes, he wouldn't believe that these things were brought by the Mu family.
Suddenly, a hint of gloom flashed in his eyes, and he reached out and picked up a bottle of wine Li Han said to Mu Lin: "Uncle, didn't you say that your family is in a difficult situation now, how can you take out such a valuable gift all of a sudden." Could it be that your family has been pretending to be poor, or that your cigarettes and alcohol are all fakes on the stall?"
