Chapter 901 So That's How It Is

Having arrived and taken their seats in a private room at Fook Lam Moon Restaurant.

Perhaps it was because she was also pregnant, but Nangong Tian's maternal instincts were overflowing. She and Jiang Yu were together, pinching Su Yehao's son's chubby face into a bun shape, unable to put him down.

The little fellow smiled happily, mainly because Jiang Yu had bought him ice cream. At the moment, he was busy eating and couldn't be bothered with these two beautiful older sisters.

Nong Qingying couldn't have been happier to have someone help her take care of the child, and just smiled at the sight.

It seemed that she had made a special effort to dress up tonight, wearing an evening gown and high heels, looking particularly exquisite.

Jiang Yu had already become apathetic, wearing a pink shirt and jeans, and rushing over with a ponytail. At the moment, she was thinking about working harder recently, so that a certain guy would put in more effort, striving to also have a baby.

It could only be said that she was indeed getting to that age.

Jiang Shiye and his wife would occasionally urge her, constantly nagging at home about how cute the grandchildren of their friends were, telling her to have children early while she was young, so that she would recover better after giving birth, and so on.

Su Yehao didn't know what Jiang Yu was thinking, and only wondered what was wrong with this girl today, stealing glances at him several times for no reason.

Because he felt guilty, he couldn't help but worry, fearing that Vera had secretly complained to Jiang Yu.

If that were the case, he was afraid he would be ganged up on when he got home...

His little aunt then asked someone to bring a bottle of red wine, and introduced it with a smile:

"This is a Château Cheval Blanc 1947 Imperial six-liter bottle of dry red that I bought at an auction. There are so many of us, let's all drink a little more tonight."

Su's father said in an exaggerated tone, laughing:

"Little sister, you've spent too much. This is such a large bottle of red wine. Hasn't it been over fifty years since it was made? Each person would have to drink about a pound to finish it. I don't mind, but I'm afraid you'll have to be carried home."

It was a very large bottle of red wine, and Grandpa Tang asked with interest:

"You bought it at an auction, how much did it cost? I drank this kind of wine more than a decade ago, when someone was celebrating their birthday, and two tables weren't even enough to pour it all. It's such a waste to drink this kind of wine when the family is eating together, I doubt anyone can taste the flavor."

Su Yehao's little aunt said:

"About ten thousand dollars, I bought several kinds of wine at the time, and I've forgotten the exact price. Wine is meant to be drunk, what's the point of just looking at it. A friend went to France to inspect wineries before, and I accompanied them to Château Cheval Blanc. Many French wineries have been acquired in recent years, but the eight great châteaux haven't changed at all. Château Cheval Blanc has been passed down in their family for more than a hundred years."

The fifty-year-old red wine was first poured into a decanter and swirled.

Since he often ate at Fook Lam Moon Restaurant, ordering food was relatively easy. Su Yehao wasn't shy and chose a crispy chicken, along with a coconut stewed bird's nest.

After asking Nong Qingying, he also ordered a fresh shrimp rice noodle roll for his son.

He continued:

"I already have a winery, a Maotai baijiu (white liquor) winery. Compared to it, Mouton and Latour are nothing. Its valuation is increasing rapidly. After a few more years of development, the eight French wineries combined might not even be worth a fraction of Maotai's value."

Since the financing of Maotai, its sales have soared.

The turnover in the first half of this year increased by more than 40% compared to the same period last year.

If Maotai Brewery were to go public, relying on this good news, it would increase by at least three limit-ups, and its valuation would increase from 4 to 5 billion RMB when Su Yehao first financed it, to about 15 billion RMB today.

It must be said that Maotai is indeed Maotai.

Thanks to the economic growth in the mainland and the increase in residents' consumption levels, the potential of this winery has gradually begun to be released. Su Yehao occasionally regretted that he had financed too little at the beginning, and should have gritted his teeth and sold everything he had.

When his little aunt heard this, she said happily:

"I should support your business tonight, but your girlfriends are all here, so I can't let them drink baijiu too. My dear nephew, you're so amazing now, I, as an elder, am benefiting from it. Last time, a TV station even went to interview my hotel in Tahiti."

"I've been saying that I want to travel to Tahiti, let's schedule a time next time and go there for a few days to relax."

It was Su's father who was speaking.

The whole family was chatting happily, and Grandpa Tang smiled so much that he couldn't close his mouth when he saw this scene.

After ordering, the dishes were served quickly, and they ate and drank wine while chatting about everything under the sun.

For example, Tang's mother's chain pharmacy was considering spending about 300 million RMB to acquire a peer company that was in trouble due to blind expansion.

Su's father's real estate business was quite good, and a cement factory he invested in was also expanding wildly, and was planning to go public on the A-share market for financing. Mide Group, which produces home appliances, was also expected to be listed on the Hong Kong Stock Exchange and the Shanghai Stock Exchange next year.

After a few rounds of drinks.

His little aunt looked conflicted, and suddenly told them, "I was living in London some time ago, and I met a very suitable marriage partner."

As soon as these words came out.

Grandpa Tang was stunned, his eyes lit up immediately, and he quickly asked, "What does he do? It doesn't matter if the conditions are ordinary, the key is that the personality must be good. Why didn't you bring him back for us to see? Is he Chinese or a foreigner?"

"... White, I'm afraid you won't be able to accept it if I bring her back, she's a woman."

The little aunt threw caution to the wind, and continued:

"Actually, I discovered it when I was around twenty years old. Compared to men, I seem to like women a little more. She told me that I should be honest and stay true to my heart, so taking this opportunity today, I don't want to run away anymore."

"..."

"..."

"???"

Su Yehao was full of doubts, thinking to himself, could this be the so-called coming out of the closet?

This seemed to explain why the little aunt lived such a free life. Compared to being constrained by the old man at home, she was obviously more free outside.

Nangong Tian and Jiang Yu were both stunned, as was Nong Qingying.

After a moment of silence, Su Yehao looked at Grandpa Tang, who was in a daze, and helped him by saying:

"Congratulations, what era is this? Everyone's ideas are very open, there's no need to hide this kind of thing, just be happy. Mom, please get a bowl of soup for Grandpa, be careful not to choke."

Tang's mother blinked and said, "Oh, this bird's nest is quite good. Nowadays, not to mention girls holding hands in the street, even men are holding hands. Dad, don't think too much, this kind of thing is normal."

Grandpa Tang touched his chest, took a few deep breaths, squeezed out a smile and said:

"I'm already this old, you can live your life however you want, I'm not angry, and I don't have the energy to care. Anyway, I have a great-grandson now, I don't need you to help me recruit a son-in-law, and even if I did, it would be the same as not having one, completely unreliable."

Su's father, who was lying down and got shot by an arrow, said awkwardly with a smile:

"Hey~ I thought what was the matter, I heard that it's okay for women to get married in foreign countries, no wonder you couldn't stand so many blind dates I introduced to you, so that's how it is."

Grandpa Tang just couldn't adapt for a while, and drank a glass of wine to calm his nerves.

He had long been unable to control this youngest daughter, and at the moment, the old man was more calm than he had imagined, and asked blankly, "What about the children?"

The little aunt shook her head: "She and I have discussed it, and we don't plan to have children."

The old man nodded thoughtfully, and added, "Oh, then remember to leave a will, and leave the money to Xiao Tianrui in the future. What's the point of marrying a woman and letting outsiders divide my family's property?"

The little aunt explained:

"Okay, we may not really get a marriage certificate, but we will hold a wedding in Tahiti. Her family owns a bank in England, and she's an only child, richer than me, so she's definitely not with me for the money..."
