Chapter 215: 125, An unexpected encounter with Chen Shanhe! Going home for New Year’s, showing off in a Maybach!_9
“Another Range Rover, another Maybach, what’s Mr. Lin doing to make a fortune now?”
The crowd around immediately became lively, some offered Lin Mo cigarettes, and others were sizing up the interior of the car through the window.
It’s no wonder they weren’t surprised,
they work themselves to death all year long and only earn a few tens of thousands of yuan at most, maybe a little over a hundred thousand for some, and the money they manage to save is next to nothing.
But one of his cars is worth several million!
With that much money, it would be enough for a lifetime!
Lin Mo exchanged a few words with some of the familiar villagers, and then Li Jinwen came running over with Lin Xiaoxiao in tow.
“Daddy… daddy… daddy…”
Lin Xiaoxiao broke free from Li Jinwen’s grasp and ran toward Lin Mo.
Li Jinwen was pregnant and didn’t dare to run too fast.
“Hey, my sweet girl!” Lin Mo embraced Lin Xiaoxiao and kissed her cheek, then said, “Missed daddy?”
“Hmm! Missed!” Lin Xiaoxiao nodded vigorously.
Li Jinwen also walked over, her face full of smiles, a bit flushed, “Husband, how come you didn’t tell us in advance when you arrived at the village! Didn’t I ask you to call us as soon as you got off the highway!”
“Hey, I just didn’t want you guys to wait for me.”
“Wife, you’ve worked hard these days!” replied Lin Mo, then he looked toward a few people hurrying over from afar and shouted, “Dad, mom, I saw you guys from a distance.”
“You rascal, always making a sudden appearance.” Lin Changshui cursed, yet the smile on his face couldn’t be suppressed.
The village chief, standing beside them, glanced at the nearby Maybach, his expression shocked. He said with a smile, “Changshui, your son really hasn’t let you down, driving both a big Range Rover and a Maybach.”
Huh?
Maybach?
Previously his attention was all on his son, Lin Changshui hadn’t noticed that his son returned this time in another luxury car?
He was no car buff, but that didn’t mean he hadn’t seen a Maybach before.
Lin Changshui scolded, “What’s with this kid, why spend money like water when you have a little, don’t you know to save a bit.”
“Changshui, what are you saying,” the village chief laughed and teased, “if you’ve got money, you should enjoy it, what’s to fear if your son can earn it. If my silly son could drive back a Mercedes, I’d wake up laughing even from a dream.”
“Exactly, Lin Mo has made something of himself, and we as his uncles are happy too.”
“Lin Mo, do you still remember me? I’m your second grandmother.”
“Mo, uncle has to say a few words to you, even if you have money, don’t just splurge it away. Cars are just consumables, meant for getting around, one is enough. Just like uncle’s Wuling Hongguang, looks totally fine to me, no need to spend too much money on this.”
“Lin Mo, what kind of business are you doing now to earn so much money?”
Hearing the villagers’ discussions, Xu Qin chuckled to herself, and her father-in-law was also beaming with joy.
After a while,
the number of people on their side kept growing and was about to exceed the number of people watching the drama on the other side.
Some were looking at the car, while others greeted Lin Mo.
Especially when someone mentioned the price of the Maybach, relatives and friends in the village became even more enthusiastic.
Some young people had already taken out their phones and were standing by the Maybach, shooting short videos.
[Ha-ha, back in the day you ignored me, now you can’t afford me when I’m in a Maybach!]
[A man can’t have a Maybach and a sense of inferiority at the same time.]
With the new year, there were also many young people in the village, and they certainly wouldn’t miss this rare chance to show off.
Since Lin Mo brought a Land Rover back to the village, there are now at least 20 Land Rover owners in Zhangzhuang.
At least according to Douyin videos, they were all surely successful winners in life.
After chatting with the villagers for a while, Lin Mo, using the excuse of being really tired from driving, managed to slip away and once more got in the car, returning home with his wife and daughter.
And honestly,
having a Land Rover and a Maybach parked in the yard gave even the precarious two-story bungalow a lift in spirits.
After waiting a bit more,
his father-in-law came back, pushing Lin Mo’s parents in their wheelchairs, while his mother-in-law, who had stayed behind to take care of Lin Siyu, also came out to greet them.
Zhang Li also formally greeted everyone. Although he was not very familiar with everyone, they were all too familiar with him, having spent over two months with him in the hospital.
Seeing Lin Siyu with her vacant gaze, Zhang Li’s tears couldn’t stop flowing, making Lin Mo and the others sigh with pity.
When Lin Siyu saw Zhang Li, she kept staring at him blankly but didn’t show much reaction.
It seemed that the catalyst wasn’t Zhang Li, or maybe it just wasn’t time yet.
However, it wasn’t without benefits. Lin Siyu would at least walk over to Zhang Li. Although she didn’t speak, one could see that she liked him.
“Come on, let’s talk inside.”
“Right, it’s cold outside, let’s go to the living room.”
“Mo, help Zhang Li. He shouldn’t be moving too much right now.”
Soon, everyone was sitting in the shabby but warm living room, talking about some recent interesting incidents in the village.
Lin Mo also shared some interesting things that had happened in Rakshasa City.”
Of course, during the telling, he said what should be said, and didn’t blurt out what shouldn’t be.
About the Maybach, he merely mentioned that he happened to make some money and bought another car to make it more convenient to contact Uncle Tai.
The conversation went on until 11 p.m., and the family gradually became restless.
Especially Xu Qin and Lin Changshui, the two patients, although they were happy to see their son, their bodies were honest, and their spirits visibly sagged.
Lin Mo helped his parents to bed, then tidied up a vacant room on the first floor with his in-laws, turning it into a bedroom for Zhang Li.
After finishing these tasks, it was very late. He chatted with his in-laws for a while before everyone retired to their rooms.
Lin Mo placed his already asleep daughter in bed, then tiptoed back to his own room with Li Jinwen.
Absence makes the heart grow fonder.
The couple, who had not seen each other for a long time, finally had some time alone in a room, looking at each other, as if even the air between them was charged with intimacy.
