Chapter 668: Chapter 671: Joy Chapter 668: Chapter 671: Joy More than ten people gathered in a private room.
A dinner party naturally included drinking. Everyone clinked glasses cheerily, taking turns to drink, creating a very joyful atmosphere.
“Oh… the salary has been deposited,” a staff mber’s phone chid.
“Mine too.”
Everyone’s salary had arrived. Suddenly, the mood was very good.
“Sigh, Hann Technology is really not bad. Since I entered Hann Technology, my monthly salary has never been less than five thousand!”
“ too, the highest month I made over ten thousand.”
Everyone chid in one after another, all their words filled with praise for Hann Technology. Xiao Dahai glanced at his own phone, his salary was over seven thousand plus his bonus, so this month his earning exceeded twelve thousand. He was greatly shocked inside.
Xiao Dahai had never imagined he could earn so much, and now, he had achieved his dream. Moreover, once he beca a manager, his salary would rise even further.
The al cost nearly a thousand. Although it was a lot, Xiao Dahai was very happy.
“Thank you all for honoring , I dedicate this cup to everyone!” Xiao Dahai raised his glass.
“Manager Xiao, don’t be too stern with us later on.”
“Haha…”
Everyone raised their glasses. Xiao Dahai was well-known in the store for his good temper. Everyone understood this, so there was naturally no objection to Xiao Dahai becoming the manager.
After a fulfilling al and drinks, Xiao Dahai rode his motorcycle back ho, speeding along the way because he couldn’t wait to share the news with his father and mother.
He arrived ho.
Looking at the surroundings of his ho, Xiao Dahai fell silent.
This was a very old neighborhood, in the ’80s his father caught the last bus for staff housing contributions. Without that chance, they probably wouldn’t even have a house to live in. Decades had passed, and the house was now old and damp. Moreover, the living conditions needed improvent. Most importantly, as he was not getting younger and would soon be reaching the age to marry, it was ti to have his own apartnt.
Over the years, his parents had worried a lot about his future.
Suddenly, Xiao Dahai felt he had matured a lot all at once.
He returned ho.
His parents had already eaten and were watching TV.
“Dahai, you’re back??” His mother ca over quickly, got him slippers, then took out a waterlon from the fridge. She asked, “Did you go out to eat with your coworkers today?”
“Yes, I treated everyone to dinner today!” Xiao Dahai nodded.
“Ah?” His mother was startled and asked, “How much did it cost?”
“Nine hundred and eighty.” Xiao Dahai smiled.
“You silly boy, why are you wasting money?” His mother was alard when she heard this. “Did they persuade you to treat them? Those troublemakers!”
“No, I received a bonus today, so I treated everyone to dinner!” Xiao Dahai looked at his mother happily.
“You got a bonus?” His mother was sowhat skeptical. “Don’t lie to !”
“Really.” Xiao Dahai hurriedly took out a leather envelope from his bag, saying, “A total of five thousand, spent a thousand on the al. Four thousand left.”
Xiao Dahai’s mother was startled and quickly took it over. A mother knows her child best; she knew her son was honest and never lied. She opened the envelope, and indeed, there was a thick stack of banknotes. Excitedly, she said, “Oh my, so much money. You…”
“Mom, I also got my salary, and I took it all out!” Xiao Dahai excitedly took out another thick stack of banknotes from his bag.
“This…” His mother was amazed.
“How much in total?” Xiao Minghua promptly ca over.
“Dad, I made a total of twelve thousand three hundred this month.” Xiao Dahai chuckled.
“Silly boy, you’ve really made sothing of yourself.” Xiao Minghua was stunned, saying, “So much money?”
The couple held the thick stack of banknotes, looking at each other excitedly.
“Huazi, our son has really made sothing of himself.” Xiao Dahai’s mother was so moved she almost cried.
“Yes!” Xiao Minghua nodded, saying, “He has indeed.”
“Mom, Dad, there’s more good news!” Xiao Dahai chuckled and said, “Due to my outstanding performance, the company has appointed as manager of Hann Technology, so now I’ll be a leader in the company!”
“Really?” His mother was clearly skeptical, as her son had always been straightforward and didn’t seem to have the shrewdness expected of a leader.
“Of course it’s true!” Xiao Dahai imdiately nodded.
“Oh my, my son really has made sothing of himself.” Xiao Dahai’s mother was overwheld with joy, holding that stack of money, which was the best proof of her son’s success.
In today’s society, saying soone has succeeded, that soone has made sothing of themselves, money is the best proof. Even if your words are as beautiful as a lotus or as dazzling as a teor shower, without money, no one will think you have succeeded or made sothing of yourself.
Xiao Minghua and his wife had never imagined their son could achieve such success.
“We have Xiao Han to thank for this.” Xiao Minghua imdiately thought of Xiao Han. In his view, his son’s achievents today were all thanks to Xiao Han’s assistance; otherwise, with his son’s ability, how could he have been promoted to manager?
“Yes!” Xiao Dahai’s mother nodded repeatedly.
Xiao Minghua smiled, “Lianhua, it’s necessary to make a trip to my second brother’s place.”
“Right, we really should go,” replied Dahai’s mother, Lianhua, nodding. “After all, he is your second brother, and it hasn’t been easy for your sister-in-law to raise Xiao Han all these years by herself. She has finally gotten through the tough tis.”
“Yes!” Xiao Minghua nodded, “My sister-in-law really hasn’t had it easy.”
“So… shall we go tonight?” Lianhua suggested.
“Sure!” Xiao Minghua agreed, “Let’s buy so gifts later and take them over tonight.”
“Alright!” Lianhua nodded.
Xiao Minghua seed very happy. He patted Dahai’s shoulder and said, “Dahai, we father and son have never had a drink together. Now that you’re grown up, I want to have a few drinks with you!”
“Sure!” Dahai nodded.
“Wife, go cook a couple of dishes!” Xiao Minghua waved his hand.
Lianhua imdiately went to cook, showing a compliance and warmth that she hadn’t shown since marrying Xiao Minghua.
The father and son sat in the dining room. Xiao Minghua took out his prized bottle of liquor that he had kept for many years, planning to have a good drink with his son.
The father and son drank and sang.
……
Evening.
Xiao Han and his mother were dining at ho.
Although she had bought a large house and had money now, Mother Xiao still lived in this humble unit. She had no desire to move. The benefit of living here was that it kept cool in the sumr, comfortable enough to sleep without air conditioning.
“Mom, when are you moving to Evergrande City?” Xiao Han asked.
“Not moving!” Mother Xiao firmly replied, “I’m fine here, why should I move?”
“This place is too small,” Xiao Han said helplessly.
“What’s wrong with being small?” Mother Xiao laughed, “What would I do with such a big place all to myself? I’ve lived here my whole life and I’m used to it. The house can be for you when you get married.”
Seeing that persuasion was ineffective, Xiao Han had to give up.
If his mother liked it, then let her live here alone. All his persuasion for her to move to Evergrande City was ant to make her happy. If living in this small house made her happy, why should he dispute that?
“Alright,” Xiao Han nodded, “since you like living here, then stay here.”
“Actually, I like it here,” Mother Xiao smiled, “I know a lot of people here, we have neighbors who look after each other. If I moved to Evergrande City, I fear I’d have no one to talk to.”
“That’s also true,” Xiao Han nodded.
At that mont, Mother Xiao spoke, “By the way, Grandma Liu seems to have fallen seriously ill recently. When you have ti, you should visit her. She’s spent her whole life without much fortune, and now she’s ill in the hospital, I don’t know how she’s doing.”
“Really?” Xiao Han felt a bit anxious upon hearing this.
As Xiao Han was feeling anxious, there ca a knock at the door.
“I’ll get it!” Mother Xiao stood up.
Upon opening the door, she saw Xiao Minghua and his family standing there.
“Sister-in-law!” Xiao Minghua hurriedly greeted with a smile.
“Your whole family ca?” Mother Xiao was surprised. While they were relatives, they seldom visited each other, and now Xiao Minghua’s entire family had co, which surprised Mother Xiao.
“Yes!” Lianhua nodded. “We ca especially today to thank you.”
“Co in quickly!” Mother Xiao said urgently.
The family of three hurriedly entered.
After entering, Mother Xiao had them sit on the sofa. Lianhua said, “Sister-in-law, are you still eating?”
“Yes,” Mother Xiao nodded, “I got off work a bit late today.”
“You’re a little manager, why push yourself so hard!” Lianhua chuckled.
“I still have to lead by example,” Mother Xiao glanced at them and served them tea and water, as guests had arrived.
Then, Xiao Minghua spoke up, “Xiao Han, I really have to thank you this ti. Dahai becoming a manager is all thanks to you. I don’t have much to offer in thanks, just bought so delicacies, hope you like them!”
“Look at what you’re saying, Xiao Han is so wealthy now, does he care about these?” Lianhua laughed.
“Exactly!” Xiao Minghua nodded repeatedly, “It’s just a small gesture of our thanks.”
“What’s going on?” Mother Xiao clearly didn’t understand.
“Dahai earned over twelve thousand yuan this month, including his bonus!” Lianhua hurriedly said. “Not only did he earn so much, but he also got promoted to manager, now he’s sowhat of a leader too!”
“Really?” Mother Xiao, on hearing this, was overjoyed, “Dahai, I really must congratulate you!”
“It’s all thanks to Brother Han looking out for !” Dahai grinned.
“That has nothing to do with .” Xiao Han shook his head, “It was all Dahai’s own effort. It has nothing to do with , and besides, it was a unanimous decision by several company heads. Even if I wanted to help, I couldn’t!”
