Chapter 43 - Climbing at Cousin's Family
Opening the door, he saw his mother-in-law, Hao Yulan, standing outside.
"Ye Hao, in the past, although you were not able to meet my expectations, at the very least, you have to work hard. Let's see how you are now!" Seeing Ye Hao, Hao Yulan seemed to hate him for not being able to find the right words to it. "It's already 11 o'clock, the shop is still not open, you don't want to earn money anymore, do you?"
Ye Hao laughed bitterly in his heart. He hadn't slept last night, and when he returned, it was already past six in the morning.
"I'm sorry, Mom. I was feeling a bit uncomfortable last night!" Ye Hao hurriedly apologized.
"What's the use of apologizing to me, your life is yours!" Hao Yulan impatiently waved his hand, and continued to speak: "Quickly pack up, later we'll go to Dragon Restaurant and treat our relatives to a meal!"
After Hao Yulan finished speaking, she turned around and left, while Ye Hao hurried back to the shop to clean up.
There were two Clothes s in the shop that he always kept, Ye Hao changed them all, although the Clothes was not a famous brand, but at least they did not look that bedraggled anymore.
After getting a taxi at the door, Ye Hao arrived at Dragon Restaurant.
Just as he arrived at the restaurant entrance, he saw Shen Muya waiting at the entrance.
"Didn't Mom tell you to come quickly? Why did you only arrive now!? " Shen Muya's face looked impatient: I've already been standing at the door for half a day!
Ye Hao couldn't help but be surprised in his heart when he saw her. Shen Muya had always treated his husband as air, so logically speaking, she should have already been inside to eat since a long time ago.
"There aren't many taxis today, so I've waited a long time to get one!" Ye Hao quickly explained.
Shen Muya snorted lightly, took out a watch from her bag, and gave it to Ye Hao: "This is the watch I bought for you using this month's bonus, bring it!"
Ye Hao couldn't help but be overwhelmed by the unexpected fact, that Shen Muya had actually gifted him a gift. But then, she understood, Shen Muya was obviously afraid that Ye Hao would embarrass him, so she had specially bought a watch for him.
However, when Ye Hao looked up and saw that Shen Muya had already entered the restaurant, he quickly followed behind.
"Aiyo, Lil 'Ye, why did you come all dressed like that? I heard my cousin say that you opened a store, and you're earning pretty well!" Once he entered the room, Ye Hao heard a sharp voice. A fat middle-aged madam slowly stood up with a face full of thick powder.
"third aunty!" When Ye Hao saw this woman, he could not help but let out a bitter laugh.
third aunty was her mother's cousin, Hao Yulan. She loved to compete the most, and when they were married, she had mocked herself in front of Shen Muya because she was born poor.
Her two daughters' achievements were never as good as Shen Muya's, causing her to always be jealous of him. But not only was Shen Muya good at studying, her work after graduation was also very outstanding, so she couldn't start with Shen Muya, so she always belittled herself even more whenever they met.
In any case, the people from the Shen Family did not take Ye Hao seriously.
"Mom, don't say that. It's popular to keep a low profile these days, while Lil 'Ye keeps a low profile!" At this time, a girl sitting next to third aunty chuckled. She looked at Ye Hao with her peach blossom eyes, and her eyes were filled with disdain.
When the girl beside Hao Fengmei heard her words, she also started to giggle with a look of disdain. It was the second daughter of third aunty, Hao Fengxian.
Frankly speaking, the two girls were very tall and had decent figures. They both learned how to dance.
They were the same as the third aunty, and were extremely jealous of Shen Muya. Since young, the ones who were praised by the elders was Shen Muya, and they had to think of ways to surpass him.
It was a good thing that Shen Muya had married a useless thing like Ye Hao and this entire life could be considered to be half over, but they had an even broader future ahead of them. Once they became famous stars in the future and married into rich people, they would be the pride of their elders in their hearts.
"What are you standing there in a daze for? Hurry up and sit down!" Hao Yulan looked at the Ye Hao who was mocked but standing there in a daze, and felt a burst of anger in his heart.
Ye Hao quickly sat down beside Shen Muya. His expression was a little awkward, but after thinking about how he was now the Fu Ri University's academic instructor, he finally had some courage and asked the third aunty: "Did the two younger cousins not go to school today?"
When the people on the table heard his words, a hint of surprise flashed past their eyes. Usually, when Ye Hao was seated on the table, they would not dare to say a single word.
"Brother-in-law is really forgetful!" My sister and I have already graduated from high school and we are currently applying for an art school! " Ye Hao's change caused Hao Fengmei to feel extremely unhappy. He let out a cold laugh, and spoke with a face full of contempt.
"A busy man like brother-in-law has tens of thousands of yuan in a single day. How could he be in the mood to think about us relatives!" Hao Fengxian also sneered.
"If you can't speak, then don't!" It was obvious that his son-in-law had been humiliated, but Shen Hou actually felt that Ye Hao was asking for trouble, and coldly reprimanded him.
"Dad!" How can you blame him? Ye Hao was just casually asking! " Shen Muya's face darkened, and said to Shen Hou.
The atmosphere at the table immediately became awkward. Hao Yulan raised her wine cup, and laughed at Shen Liang: "Who cares about what he does! Let's properly congratulate Plum and Xian'er. Seeing the two of them, there will definitely be no problem with their qualifications to go to an art school. In the future, they might even become famous stars! "
When this matter was brought up, the two girls revealed a smile, and the third aunty also laughed complacently.
"I don't hope for them to become big stars. I am already satisfied to be able to be a tenth of your Xiao Ya!" third aunty laughed. Although she was speaking humbly, her face was full of pride.
The table of people no longer paid any attention to Ye Hao, they only focused on eating and toasting, and only thought of Ye Hao when they were pouring tea or when Attendant was serving dishes.
Of course, third aunty and the two girls would mock Ye Hao from time to time, so Shen Family pretended not to hear anything.
After three rounds of drinking, Third Aunt raised her wine glass and said to Shen Hou, "Cousin, you must help me with the matters between Mei Mei and Xiao Xian. We really have no other choice. Which school the two of them can attend, will affect their future!"
Hearing this, Shen Hou's face revealed an awkward expression, "I've seen their grades and they are both pretty good. But this year, there are too many students from the arts school applying, so they are barely able to enter into the three schools in the city. Wanting to enter the two books is truly difficult!"
"Brother-in-law, what are you saying!?" When Third Aunt heard his words, she immediately smiled, and the thick foundation on her face began to wrinkle, "What is going on with the entrance of an art school? Others know that our two girls aren't aware of it, right? You are Universities's guest, so you have a good relationship with the teachers there! "
