The Plane Lottery System of the Pantheon
Chapter 172 Gift [Second update! ]
Lin Chengxu had noticed the conflict between Zhang Chen and the man when he just came downstairs.
The man's name is Zhao Che, and he is the child of Lin Chengxu's sister. Because his brother-in-law has some business acumen, his business is quite big. In addition, they are not developing in Zhuhai City, so there is no need to curry favor with Lin Chengxu.
However, since Lin Chengxu brought Lin Xue back to his hometown a few years ago, Zhao Che would come to visit Lin Chengxu every New Year and festival. What's interesting is that Zhao Che is different from other relatives who bring a lot of things every time. Zhao Che not only doesn't bring anything every time he comes, but also eats at Lin Chengxu's place. Lin Chengxu naturally knows that this kid is interested in Lin Xue.
However, Lin Chengxu did not interfere with them. According to Lin Chengxu, let the young people solve the problems between young people.
According to his investigation, Zhao Che is generally good. Although he is a little sloppy and unreliable, he still leaves a good impression on Lin Chengxu. In addition, he is more serious in both study and work. If the two families become relatives, there will be one person to take care of.
However, Zhang Chen suddenly rushed out at this time, and Lin Chengxu also wanted to see how powerful Zhang Chen was, so he turned a blind eye to the conflict just now.
Lin Chengxu looked at Zhao Che who was walking over, and a smile appeared on his face, "Xiao Che is here, how are your parents' health recently?"
Zhao Che immediately smiled when he saw Lin Chengxu talking to him, "My parents are all good, but my mother often talks about you and says she wants to see you."
Lin Chengxu laughed, "I have work here and can't get away. Since your mother wants to see me, let her come and live with us for a while."
Zhao Che nodded, "Oh, okay, I'll tell my mother when I go back, she must be very happy. By the way, second uncle, today is your birthday, you also know , I don't usually have so many etiquettes. This time I brought a bottle of 80-year-old red wine from a friend. I also know that you don't accept these gifts. Let's drink this bottle of wine at the banquet today! "
Lin Chengxu smiled and shook his head, "It's rare that you have this heart. This red wine cost a lot of money, right?"
Zhao Che smiled slightly, with a calm look, "Not much, isn't this my second uncle's birthday, I just took it, and today I will accompany my second uncle to drink it." After saying that, he turned around and cast a hint of provocation at Zhang Chen.
Lin Xue behind was furious when she saw Zhao Che's eyes.
"This Zhao Che is too arrogant!"
Zhang Chen shook his head, "Don't pay attention to him, jumping clown."
Soon the banquet began.
The banquet was not as serious as the gatherings of the famous families that Zhang Chen knew. Instead, it felt like a family dinner. People who got along well sat together, ate, chatted, and went to Lin Chengxu to build relationships.
Zhang Chen and Lin Xue sat in the corner.
Not long after the banquet started, Lin Xue's relatives began to give gifts.
Because of Lin Chengxu's principles, these people took great pains to prepare a lot of things.
A middle-aged man took out a transparent bag from his bag, and the bag contained a ginseng, "Chengxu, this is the ginseng grown in our hometown. You work hard every day, so I brought you one. This is from our own family, you must accept it!"
He put it next to Lin Chengxu.
As soon as this man started, everyone came forward to give gifts, such as cordyceps from their own homes, vases made by themselves, calligraphy and paintings drawn by themselves, and all kinds of things from their own homes were sent to Lin Chengxu.
Zhang Chen saw this scene and smiled, "Xue'er, your relatives are all people who do big things. So many things are from their own homes. If you count them, aren't they more powerful than me?"
Lin Xue also felt embarrassed.
Ginseng from one's own home is understandable, but can cordyceps be grown at home? Can you paint famous calligraphy and paintings at home? You are so great, why don't you go up to the sky!
Zhao Che looked at the group of people who swarmed over with disdain, "A bunch of idiots."
Lin Chengxu looked at the gifts that soon piled up, and shook his head at everyone, "Whatever you send, take it back yourself, otherwise, you know my principles, and you don't have to come in the future."
As soon as Lin Chengxu spoke, the group of people immediately became embarrassed, and took the things back one by one, sat down and ate in silence.
Zhao Che smiled slightly at this time, opened the bottle of red wine in front of him, poured it into a goblet and sent it to Lin Chengxu.
"Second uncle, today is your birthday, I toast you a glass." Then he handed the goblet to Lin Chengxu.
Lin Chengxu looked at the red wine in front of him and said nothing.
"Second uncle, don't worry, it's just a glass of wine, not some valuable item like ginseng." Zhao Che glanced back at the people who had given gifts before.
Lin Chengxu nodded and picked up the wine glass, "Okay, today is my birthday, I'll drink this 80-year-old wine once!" He drank it all in one gulp.
Zhao Che was even more proud when he saw this, "Second uncle, you see Xiaoxue can't be without someone to protect her, otherwise I'll send a few people to protect my cousin, what do you think?"
Lin Chengxu glanced at Zhang Chen intentionally or unintentionally at this time, and did not respond to Zhao Che's words, but evaluated the wine.
"Your red wine is really good, the taste is mellow, with a hint of sweetness."
Zhang Chen knew that he had to take action at this time, and immediately took out a large barrel of wine that he had placed under the table a long time ago, and walked towards Lin Chengxu.
"Uncle, today is your birthday. I have nothing to bring, so I brought a barrel of my own wine for you to taste." Zhang Chen put the wine on the table.
Zhao Che looked at the barrel of wine Zhang Chen was holding with a look of disdain, "I say, can you please be more careful? You dare to take out this broken barrel?"
Zhao Che's words were not wrong. Zhang Chen couldn't find any barrels to hold wine for a while, so he had to go to the wine shop and spend dozens of yuan to buy such a big barrel.
Zhang Chen was too lazy to talk to Zhao Che, and he directly unscrewed the lid of the wine barrel.
Almost in an instant, a scent of wine filled the air.
Lin Chengxu liked wine in the first place, and now he smelled the aroma of this spiritual wine, and he immediately felt refreshed.
"Good wine! The wine is rich and refreshing. It seems that this is not an ordinary bar?" Lin Chengxu glanced at Zhang Chen.
Zhang Chen smiled slightly, "Uncle, you have a very sensitive nose. This is actually a kind of medicinal wine, but I brewed it myself. Although it didn't cost much money, it still took a lot of effort. There's no point in saying so much. Uncle, just drink a glass and taste it yourself." As he said that, Zhang Chen found a glass and poured one-third of it.
