142: A heartwarming moment.

They arrived at their doorstep.

Seeing the familiar rows of houses, with children playing in front and behind them.

Wang Lin got out of the car and saw his paternal uncle and paternal aunt already waiting at the door for a long time.

"Grandma, Uncle, I'm back!"

His paternal uncle and Wang Lin indeed looked alike; after all, they were family.

He watched Wang Lin return, then glanced at the car and asked, "This car isn't cheap, is it? Did you make money?"

Before Wang Lin could speak, Wang Ran quickly chimed in, "Of course he made money! You have no idea how capable my Brother Lin is now; he buys cars worth millions just like that!"

"He also bought me an apple family bucket and a whole set of nice clothes!"

"We even went to Modu for a trip!"

However, she didn't dare to mention the price of the expensive watch on her wrist, fearing her father would hit her.

Wang Lin also smiled and said, "I had good luck and made a lot of money. These are some New Year's goods I bought. I got some brand of liquor and brand of liquor, and a few cartons of cigarettes. I also bought some skincare and health products for Grandma."

Saying that, he began to move things out from the back seat and trunk of the car.

Wang Lins paternal uncle, that is, his paternal uncle.

He stared at the box of brand of liquor being moved out, his eyes wide with astonishment.

This stuff, people in the village had heard of but never tasted.

What was the best-selling liquor in the village?

It was that liquor costing around 20 yuan.

Then there were some OEM products of big-brand liquors, bottled products, and so on.

Similar to brand of liquor were various liquors from Maotai Town.

As for the genuine Kweichow Moutai Feitian liquor and liquor, perhaps only the village chief and those involved in sales could afford them.

Wang Lins paternal uncle quickly helped move these liquors down.

Next were several cartons of Huangjinya Tianye, Ziqi Donglai 1928, and also the relatively cheaper Zhonghua, both soft and hard versions.

Wang Lin had deliberately chosen these, knowing that villagers weren't very knowledgeable about such things, so he brought out the most well-known brands in the village.

Indeed.

He didn't really understand the Huangjinya and Ziqi Donglai; Huangjinya was alright, its packaging looked expensive, but Ziqi Donglai was truly beyond his comprehension.

It was still the soft and hard Zhonghua that looked impressive enough.

Wang Lins paternal uncle's face was almost splitting with laughter: "You rascal, how much money did you make? Buying so many things, this must be over ten thousand!"

Wang Lins paternal aunt, however, slapped him and said, "Hurry up and move the things inside. What are you grinning about? Your nephew is showing filial piety, why are you asking so many questions?"

Watching Wang Lins paternal uncle grunt and move things, Wang Lins paternal aunt pulled Wang Lin inside: "Let him move it, it's all for him, if he doesn't move it, who will? Linlin, come with me."

She had already seen people in the distance looking their way.

"Don't you know not to show off your wealth? Being so flashy, people will come knocking at night, you know?" Wang Lins paternal aunt whispered, holding Wang Lin's hand.

Wang Lin nodded: "Grandma, I know, it's fine. I can't just make money and not spend it, right? You should try those nutritional supplements later, I heard they're good for replenishing qi and blood, quite effective."

Wang Lins paternal aunt looked at Wang Lin with some heartache: "I know, I know. You haven't even graduated yet and you're already thinking about making money. How much can you even earn at this stage?"

Wang Lin said, "Tens of millions, Grandma. From now on, if you want to eat or buy anything, don't be reluctant to spend."

Tens of millions.

Wang Lin didn't dare to say 'hundreds of millions,' fearing Grandma couldn't accept it.

But... it seemed like tens of millions wasn't much different, was it?!

"Tens of millions!!?" Wang Lins paternal aunt was shocked.

She didn't understand what tens of millions meant.

But their family's total savings were only two or three hundred thousand yuan.

That was what they had saved over so many years of frugality.

It was also meant for Wang Ran's dowry and Wang Lin's bride price in the future.

Wang Lin casually mentioned an amount hundreds of times what they had saved in half their lives.

This left Wang Lins paternal aunt dumbfounded.

Because it had exceeded her imagination.

Wang Lin nodded: "Yes, Grandma, you don't have to worry about Ranran's dowry anymore, nor my bride price. From now on, we'll eat meat every meal and stew ribs every day."

If financial professionals heard this, they would probably die laughing.

But in the countryside, in this day and age, whose family could afford to eat meat every meal?

Especially for them, who still had two burdens on their shoulders.

That evening.

A bottle of mellow liquor was placed on the table, and a carton of soft Zhonghua was opened.

Indeed, the Tianye and Ziqi Donglai were disliked; their brands weren't strong enough in the countryside.

A table full of dishes was prepared just to welcome the two youngsters.

"Stewed ribs, sweet and sour fish, braised pork, and so many other delicious foods! Mom, you're only generous at times like this!" Wang Ran exclaimed.

Wang Lins paternal aunt raised her hand and gave her a slap: "Eat your food, why so much talk?"

Wang Ran pouted, wiggled the million-dollar watch on her wrist, and started eating with a humph.

Wang Lins paternal uncle, meanwhile, contentedly picked up a few peanuts, took a sip of liquor, and then a puff of cigarette.

"This liquor really packs a punch!"

Wang Lins paternal uncle sighed, "And this Zhonghua, it doesn't irritate the throat, yet it's strong. Good cigarettes and good liquor!"

Wang Lins paternal aunt neither smoked nor drank; she simply watched everyone happily eating the dishes, while she herself looked at the translucent, green-glowing bracelet on her wrist.

Wang Lin had just slipped it to her.

He hadn't mentioned the price, but looking at it, so tender green and transparent, it must be quite expensive.

It was an ice-jadeite, positive green bracelet that Wang Lin had Alliance Leader Zhang get from Modu. It wasn't expensive, just a few million yuan.

However, he still didn't dare to tell Grandma.

After dinner.

After a short rest, as expected, acquaintances came to visit.

Wang Lins paternal uncle chatted familiarly with the person.

Wang Lin, meanwhile, took Wang Ran out for a stroll.

During this time, Li Yuanyuan and Leng Nuannuan had both sent him messages.

Wang Lin replied to them with two pictures.

They were photos from dinner today.

Leng Nuannuan: "Brother Lin, your home has such a lively atmosphere!"

Miss Leng Nuannuan probably hadn't seen such self-made tables and chairs before.

Li Yuanyuan, seizing the opportunity, tried to make her move: "Brother Lin, your rural life seems very enjoyable. I also really like these home-cooked meals. I wonder if I could visit Uncle and Aunt for New Year's?"

Wang Lin smiled wryly: "Alright, alright, come."

He really had no way to deal with her like this.

This little girl was too clever.

After a casual chat with the two, he returned home, where there were no outsiders left... The next day.

The sun was already high in the sky.

Wang Lins paternal aunt finally called the two of them up: "What time is it? Aren't you going to get up and eat?"

"There's a market in the afternoon. After you eat and rest a bit, come with me to the market to buy some things for New Year's!"
