Chapter 59: Lose and pick up, we still win! (Happy New Year~Please read!)

Lu Qian and Jiang Tao had an appointment for dinner at 7 o'clock in the evening.

It's only about 4: in the afternoon.

Jiang Tao went to Panjiayuan to sell tea today and stood on the subway back and forth for nearly four hours.

Even though I didn't do anything, it was more tiring than driving all day.

After more than two hours, he didn't plan to do anything else and went back to the rental house to rest.

I slept until 6: in the afternoon.

After getting up, Jiang Tao washed his face, washed his hair, shaved, and changed into clean clothes.

After a simple tidy-up, Jiang Tao's whole temperament changed suddenly.

In an instant, he transformed from a sloppy middle-aged man who didn't care about his appearance into a handsome uncle.

When he was in school, Xu Li pursued him, and half of the credit went to the face given by his parents.

After washing up, it was already 6:50.

After Jiang Tao went downstairs, he found that He Jing had already arrived and was gesturing to Ma Dongmei with a smile on her face.

"Wow, young man, you look pretty handsome after getting dressed like this! You're almost as handsome as I was when I was young!"

When Lu Qian saw Jiang Tao after he had washed up, he smiled and teased him.

When Jiang Tao is driving to work and transporting goods, he always looks unkempt and rough.

Only when he returned home would he wash up properly and show his best side to meet his wife and children.

After more than six years of being together, Lu Qian rarely saw Jiang Tao so neat and efficient.

"Almost catching up with me when I was young" is his highest compliment to Jiang Tao's appearance.

"Haha, I can see it, I can see it. When Brother Lu was young, he was definitely the idol of thousands of girls in Beijing. He was the handsome guy in Beijing."

Jiang Tao looked at Lu Qian who was cosplaying Xu Wenqiang again, and praised him with a smile.

"Brother Jiang, you're here."

When He Jing saw Jiang Tao, she smiled and took the initiative to greet her.

Today's Jiang Tao was different from the two times He Jing had seen him before.

It is obvious that he is more handsome and has more temperament.

And there is...

For some reason, He Jing felt that the Jiang Tao in front of her was completely different from the Jiang Tao she first met when she bought the watch.

His demeanor became more calm and confident.

The tone of voice also makes people feel more cheerful and positive.

One is Jiang Tao, who is heavily in debt and suffers from severe insomnia due to the New Year approaching and the anxiety of making money to pay off his debts every day.

One is Jiang Tao, who is debt-free, has won the support of Brother Tongzi, has earned hundreds of thousands of dollars, and eats, drinks and sleeps well every day.

Jiang Tao in two completely different states naturally gives people different feelings.

After a brief chat, Lu Qian led a few people towards the restaurant where they were going to treat them tonight.

Lu Qian heard from Ma Dongmei that He Jing likes to eat seafood.

So we decided to have our dinner at Pang Ge Seafood BBQ in the urban village.

Although Fat Brother Seafood BBQ is just a barbecue restaurant located in a village in the city, it is quite large.

The three-story buildings along the street are decorated very luxuriously and the per capita consumption is not low.

The store also has a wide variety of seafood, including shellfish, shrimp, fish, and more.

Pang Ge Seafood BBQ is still very famous in this generation.

Every day, many customers who live in the city drive from far away to dine here.

It seems that Lu Qian is also a frequent visitor here.

As soon as he and Jiang Tao and a few others entered the room, the waiter took them to a private room on the second floor that he had reserved in advance.

After entering the box, Lu Qian just asked Jiang Tao and He Jing if they had any dietary restrictions.

After asking, we started ordering.

There are all kinds of seafood including oysters, clams, scallops, shrimps, prawns, shrimp balls, saury, squid, etc.

We ordered a bunch of skewers. "Let's drink this tonight~"

After ordering, Lu Qian took out a jar of daughter's red wine from a black handbag he was carrying, as if he was presenting a treasure. He bought it from Jiang Tao for 2 yuan.

When Ma Dongmei saw the jar of her daughter's red wine, her eyes lit up.

Obviously, she had tasted the wine.

Jiang Tao also learned from chatting with Lu Qian that Ma Dongmei also likes to drink and has a good alcohol tolerance.

It’s no wonder that the two have a matching degree of 97%, their interests and hobbies are so highly matched.

Soon, the waiter brought plates of various shellfish, fish and shrimp to the table.

As the host today, Lu Qian said a few simple words to express his welcome to He Jing, and then the meal officially began.

The girl's red wine that Jiang Tao sold to Lu Qian was a product that had been stored for nearly 20 years and was still rare on the market.

Even He Jing, a girl who never drinks alcohol, couldn't help but pour a glass to taste it out of curiosity after listening to Lu Qian's ostentatious introduction of the daughter's red wine.

The complex and rich aroma of daughter's red wine was so delicious that even He Jing said it was delicious.

The meal was a joyful one, and the group felt less unfamiliar and more familiar with each other.

Four people drank a 2-jin jar of Nuhonger in one go.

After eating and drinking to his heart's content, Lu Qian went downstairs to pay the bill, which cost more than 2400 yuan, or a little over 600 yuan per person, which was not too extravagant.

But if you add the 2 yuan jar of red wine, the average cost per person is more than 5000 yuan, which is considered a big meal!

When we returned to Lu Qian's house, it was already past 9 o'clock in the evening.

Jiang Tao still had to go back to have a video call with his wife and children, so he said goodbye to a few people and went straight upstairs.

I returned to my room, washed up quickly, and gulped down a large glass of boiled water to sober up.

Jiang Tao then took out his cell phone and made a video call to Xu Li.

"Hubby, am I so stupid and useless..."

"I can't make a penny and I lost 3 yuan. I'm so useless."

Xu Li has not yet forgiven herself for losing the lottery ticket worth 3 yuan.

There was an aggrieved expression on his little face, just like a child who had made a mistake.

Jiang Tao felt helpless when he saw this, as he had already comforted everyone he needed to in the morning.

He also made it clear that he did not blame Xu Li at all and asked her to relax.

But Xu Li blamed herself, refused to forgive herself, and got stuck in a dead end, so Jiang Tao had no better solution.

Suddenly, Jiang Tao had a flash of inspiration and said:

"Wife, there's something I wanted to share with you after I got back to bed.

But since you are not in a good mood today, I'd better tell you now."

"what's up?"

Xu Li was intrigued by Jiang Tao's words and looked at him curiously.

"This is more magical than reality. I guess you wouldn't believe it even if I told you. But it doesn't matter. I have evidence."

"Two days ago..."

Jiang Tao adapted the story of how he had found the second-prize lottery ticket from a used car and told it to Xu Li.

When Xu Li heard that someone else lost a larger amount than she did, and it was picked up by her husband!
My husband and I picked up one and threw away another, and we made more than 3 yuan in total!
In order to convince Xu Li, Jiang Tao also sent Xu Li the transfer records of the transactions between him and the lottery shop owner.

Seeing the transaction record of 68996, Xu Li couldn't help but believe it!
"If you ask me, all this is destined by God."

"Maybe you didn't lose the lottery ticket, but God felt he gave us too much and took some of it back."

"Is that true, husband?"

After Jiang Tao's words of comfort, Xu Li felt much better.

"Absolutely!"

Jiang Tao answered decisively without any hesitation.

The couple chatted until after midnight before ending the call.

After hanging up the phone, Jiang Tao opened the intelligence system panel and checked the latest information.
