Chapter 941: My son is too outstanding, which is also a huge trouble!
The wind in July is always hot. After being exposed to the sun, the cement road emits high temperature, making the street like a steamer.
Lin Baici rode Tang Qing's electric bike, carrying her, with Li Wei riding side by side.
"The agent just now didn't even bother to treat us well. How unprofessional!"
Li Wei complained.
They just walked into a real estate agency, but the sales consultant didn't want to bother with the three of them.
"The three of us don't look like people who can afford a house!"
Tang Qing hugged Lin Baici, "Why would I bother? It's good enough that I didn't treat you as a freeloader and kicked you out immediately!"
"What would you like to eat for lunch?"
The weather was too hot. Lin Baici was wearing a short-sleeved shirt and no hat, so the sun was shining directly on his body. He soon broke out in a sweat and didn't want to continue looking for houses.
"Just find a roadside stall to eat something!"
Li Wei still pursues cost-effectiveness, and any choice he makes is mainly economical.
"you decide!"
Since he accepted Lin Baici's gift, Tang Qing prepared to treat him at noon.
"Then let's go to Wanhe Building?"
Lin Baici turned his head and glanced at Li Wei.
We can eat whatever we want just the two of us, but you still want to eat at a roadside stall when there are girls around?
This weather is so hot it’s killing me!
Tang Qing works in a watch factory where there are many female workers. If Li Wei makes a good impression on Tang Qing, Tang Qing might take the initiative to introduce him to a girlfriend. But if Li Wei is too shabby and stingy, this path will be cut off directly.
"Damn, that restaurant is so expensive!"
Li Wei shook his head instinctively: "Don't go!"
Wanhelou has been open in Guangqing for several decades. It is an old store. In the past, it was a matter of great honor for a family to hold their wedding banquet in Wanhelou.
Wanhe Building is not as good as before, but it is still a big hotel with an average price of two to three hundred yuan per person.
If three people go there and order two dishes and a bowl of rice, it will probably cost three or four hundred yuan!
Tang Qing had not yet gone to Wanhe Building for dinner. When she heard Lin Baici's proposal, she was about to cheer. But after hearing what Li Wei said, she also felt that it was inappropriate and immediately changed her words.
"It's quite expensive, not cost-effective, forget it!"
Tang Qing wiped the sweat off his head: "There is a spicy hot pot restaurant over at Guanghua Road. It tastes good. We eat there often!"
"It's my treat, listen to me!"
This is Lin Baici’s first time treating someone, so how could he possibly go to eat spicy hot pot?
Don’t I, the God of Haijing Lin, have any face?
So, should we buy a car before buying a house?
Otherwise, it would be too hot to ride an electric bike on the road now.
It’s not that Lin Baici can’t endure hardship, but it’s stupid for him to endure unnecessary hardship. After all, he can buy a nice car with one day’s salary.
After riding for half an hour, we arrived at Wanhe Building.
Lin Baici and the other two locked the car and went into the restaurant. He wanted a private room, but the receptionist saw that there were only three of them and they were still young, so he estimated that their consumption would not be high, and said directly that there were no private rooms.
Lin Baici frowned slightly.
Li Wei and Tang Qing didn't care whether they ate in a private room or in the lobby. It was their first time coming to this restaurant, which they had heard of since childhood. They kept looking around to satisfy their curiosity.
"Then arrange a quieter seat!"
Lin Baici gave the order.
The female receptionist said a few words on the intercom.
Soon, a waiter came over.
"Please come this way, all three of you!"
A waiter dressed in clothes similar to Tang suits took Lin Baici and the other two to a corner, arranged for them to sit down, placed a menu on them, and then poured them tea.
“You can scan the code to order, or you can order directly!”
The waiter was very efficient.
"Sister Tang, come here!"
Lin Baici handed the menu to Tang Qing.
Tang Qing shook her head and waved her hands. She seldom went out to eat out, let alone eat at a restaurant like this. She was worried that the dishes she ordered would not taste good and she would waste money.
Seeing that Tang Qing was stage-frightened, Lin Baici did not force him and handed the menu to Li Wei: "Order whatever you want to eat!"
"It's up to you to do it!"
Li Wei picked up the cup and drank the water in small sips.
"Then I'll just order whatever you want!"
Lin Baici flipped through the menu and found the drinks page: "Do you drink beer?"
"Don't drink!"
Li Wei shook his head.
"If you drink, I'll keep you company!"
Tang Qing really likes Lin Baici's generous and open temperament, especially with Li Wei as a contrast, Lin Baici's behavior seems more calm.
"I don't drink!"
Lin Baici looked at the drinks and said, "First, a large glass of freshly squeezed iced watermelon juice, and then five Jiaduobao!"
A large cup here is one liter!
Lin Baici flipped forward, quickly read through the menu, and then started ordering.
"This, this, and this!"
There are two dishes on each menu page. The pictures are very exquisite, but I don’t know what the real food is like?
"Order less, I can't finish it!"
Li Wei was a little flustered when he saw Lin Baici ordering food. It didn't seem like he was ordering food, it felt more like he was counting melon seeds.
"Too much!"
Tang Qing also tried to persuade him.
"Just eat it, don't worry about anything else."
Lin Baici flipped through half of the menu and ordered eight dishes: "Okay, I don't want what I ordered, bring the others!"
"what?"
The waiter was dumbfounded.
So you didn't want any of the dishes you ordered?
It was the first time he had seen food ordered this way.
"What are you doing?"
Li Wei turned sideways and stretched his neck to look at the menu.
Tang Qing was a little confused. I didn’t understand anything and didn’t dare to interrupt!
What if this is the way to order food at the Wanhelou Hotel?
"Don't just stand there, place your order!"
Lin Baici urged.
"Are you...are you sure?"
The waiter thought Lin Baici was teasing him because according to Lin Baici, he ordered more than twenty dishes.
"Sure!"
Lin Baici looked at the waiter: "How about I pay the bill first?"
"No... no, please wait a moment!"
The waiter took the order, left, and quickly notified the manager.
"Why did you order so much?"
Li Wei didn't understand: "I know you have money, but there's no need to waste it like this, right?"
“Don’t waste it, pack up what you can’t finish!”
Lin Baici had thought about it a long time ago. If he invited Li Wei's family to dinner, they probably wouldn't come. Even if they did, they would invite him back. It would be better for him to order a few more dishes for Li Wei to take back.
"That's too much!"
Li Wei felt distressed.
"I guess there won't be a second chance to come here in the future!"
After Lin Baici said this, Li Wei stopped trying to persuade him.
indeed,
With Lin Baici's ability, he will definitely stay in Haijing to develop.
Tang Qing originally wanted to persuade Lin Bai to stop wasting money, but when she heard these words, she suddenly felt a little sad.
Yes!
After all, two people are not from the same world.
When the lobby manager heard the waiter's report, he didn't take it seriously at all. Nowadays, there are all kinds of weird guests.
Just pay for your meal!
But the lobby manager was a very considerate person and personally brought a large fruit plate over.
"Mr. Lin, this is a token of our appreciation!"
"Thank you!"
Lin Baici's expression was calm.
The lobby manager had no idea what Lin Baici was up to and didn't dare say anything. He handed over a business card and left.
Tang Qing watched the lobby manager in a suit and tie take the initiative to talk to Lin Baici and give him his business card. She felt that Lin Baici was so amazing and the male workers in the factory could not compare with him at all.
The waiter started serving the dishes, and the first dish was a braised meat platter.
"start!"
Lin Baici helped Tang Qing open a can of Jiaduobao.
Li Wei didn't bother to be polite with Lin Baici and started to eat heartily. Tang Qing was reserved at first, but as they ate, they relaxed.
The main reason is that Lin Baici is approachable, like an older brother next door.
There are several dishes at Wanhelou that are quite unique, such as the Four Steamed Dishes of Koufu and Kung Fu Fish...
Li Wei and Tang Qing enjoyed the meal very much.
However, no matter how big their appetites were, they only took a few bites of most of the twenty-plus dishes.
Seeing that the two people could not eat anymore, Lin Baici used the excuse of going to the bathroom, settled the bill, and then called the waiter to bring some bags to pack up the leftovers.
"Sister Tang, these dishes haven't been touched much, can you take them back?"
Li Wei is actually quite caring.
Tang Qing refused.
"Sister Tang, we have been neighbors since we were young. Who doesn't know each other's situation? There's no need to feel embarrassed!"
Lin Baici persuaded.
"Ok!"
Tang Qing nodded and accepted Li Wei's kindness.
After dinner, it was only one o'clock. The sky was blue with white clouds and the sun was bright enough to make people's skin burn. In addition, Lin Baici had a lot of leftovers, so he didn't go shopping anymore and went straight home.
……
evening!
When Li Wei's mom and dad came back, they saw a table full of food.
"What's going on? Did you order takeout?"
Li Wei's mother looked at so many dishes and was shocked. How much would it cost?
"no……"
Li Wei quickly explained.
After all, Li Wei's parents were people who had worked hard in society, and they immediately understood Lin Baici's intention.
"Xiao Ci is a very humane child!"
After Li Wei's father sighed, he glared at Li Wei and said, "You must treat him as a brother!"
"Do you even need to say this?"
Li Wei felt that his father was just wasting his time.
"Xiao Ci has a promising future. He will definitely stay in Haijing after graduation. Our Xiao Wei..."
Li Wei's mother didn't say the second half of the sentence, obviously thinking that Li Wei would not be able to stay in Haijing, and this close friend relationship might not last long.
"Don't worry, Xiao Ci will definitely help our son!"
Li Wei's father is quite good at judging people: "The children taught by Guiru will not be bad!"
"Hey, Guiru finally made it!"
Li Wei's mother envied: "How much less worry do we have to have a good son like Xiao Ci?"
……
Li Guiru doesn’t think her son is a worry-free thing. She is exhausted now!
In Li Guiru's imagination, her son's life trajectory is like that of most college students. He studies hard, works odd jobs to earn a living, and then has one or two girlfriends. He may experience a breakup, or he may continue to be with them. After graduation, he will find a job, work hard to buy a house in Haijing, stay, get married, and have children...
Li Guiru had never thought of following Lin Baici to Haijing. If her son had a child and couldn't take care of it, she could take care of the child for him. In other situations, she would not disturb the couple's life.
But this time, his son's return brought him too much of a shock.
The monthly salary is 30,000 yuan, plus high bonuses.
You will make even more money next year!
Li Guiru knew that her son had been honest since childhood, so she never doubted Lin Baici, and then troubles followed.
My son wants me to go to Haijing.
This is the son's filial piety, but why is he going to Haijing?
Are you idle every day?
She felt that it would be difficult for someone as incompetent as herself to find a job in Haijing.
Li Guiru has worked for most of her life and cannot sit idle. She also wants to save more money for Lin Baici while she can still work.
and many more!
But now it seems that I don’t have to save it myself!
I work hard for a year, but I don’t earn as much as he does in two months.
Li Guiru is an honest and conservative person at heart. She was terrified to suddenly leave Guangqing, where she had lived for more than 40 years, and go to a strange city where there was not a single familiar person around her.
Of course, the most important thing is that Li Guiru felt that the entrepreneurial female student hired her son not only because of his talent, but also because of his good looks.
My son might marry her in the future, which will make his life simple.
If I follow him, there is a high probability that my daughter-in-law will dislike me.
Hey!
My son is too outstanding, which is also a huge worry!
Li Guiru thought about it and took into account all kinds of situations. Then on the fourth night after Lin Baici returned, after dinner, she decided to talk to her son.
"Mom, eat some fruit!"
Lin Baici cut a fruit plate and placed it on the coffee table.
"I've decided not to go to Haijing!"
Li Guiru went straight to the point.
"Convince me!"
Lin Baici's tone was somewhat complaining; he didn't want to be separated from his mother.
Li Guiru mainly said that she had gotten used to the living environment and pace in Guangqing and didn't want to leave.
After going to Haijing, I really didn’t even have any friends.
“You can make new friends!”
Lin Baici retorted.
"How can it be that easy?"
Li Guiru laughed at Lin Baici's naivety: "Your Aunt Li and I have known each other for more than 20 years!"
Lin Baici was silent.
Indeed, the house he bought was a large single-family villa, and it was rare to see many neighbors.
"I know what you mean!"
Li Guiru looked at her son lovingly: "For me, as long as you live well, I will be satisfied!"
Lin Baici closed his eyes and took a deep breath.
He knew his mother's character. Once she made a decision, she would not change it.
"Manage your life well!"
Li Guiru prepared to leave.
"Mom, wait!"
Lin Baici shouted, "If you don't want to go to Haijing, then don't go, but I want to buy a house in Guangqing!"
“The environment here is too bad!”
Seeing that Li Guiru was about to speak, Lin Baici interrupted her: "As I said before, buying a house in a good location will not be a loss!"
"When I can't make it in Haijing anymore, I'll have a place to stay when I come back!"
"You can't let me live here anymore, can you?"
"Your daughter-in-law and grandson would probably hate it!"
Lin Baici knew that Li Guiru didn't care about her quality of life, so she would only agree if he told her to buy it for her.
Sure enough, when Li Guiru heard the word grandson, she wavered: "Then buy a set?"
“It would be best if there was a kindergarten and a primary school nearby.”
“It would be even better if there was a park!”
After dinner every day, I can take my grandson for a walk in the park.
"Leave it to me. I'll screen the properties and pick a few, and then we'll go take a look!"
Now I have to buy a car.
You can't take your mom to see houses on an electric bike, right?
“Look more, ask more!”
Li Guiru instructed.
"I know!"
Lin Baici stood up: "Then I'm going to take a shower!"
"Well, go to bed early!"
After Li Guiru finished speaking, she suddenly remembered something: "I don't know what happened upstairs these days. There's suddenly no noise. Did they move away?"
